Sounds like the kind of idiocy a politician would suggest for sure. I fucking hate it on this terf island.

A reminder that Microsoft coined the term “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” and they are going to continue doing this on purpose
Anti plastic propaganda is a hilarious sentiment. I’m sure it exists, but we aren’t meant to have plastic in our testicles.
Being fat and sedentary is also a problem, but two (or more) problems can exist and all require attention.

You think they are in a position to bring about change for the people but actually haha they’re just there to fuck you all
Oh my god thank you for reminding me that tremulous existed. I spent so many hours playing that
Windows defender along with a system hardener (like hard_configurator) can actually be quite insanely strong, especially since windows defender starts working and blocking stuff long before non-system apps, which can be a big boon. This approach is also free (if you have windows) which seems to fit your needs!
Oh hey I’ll come do a guest spot on your podcast! I was broken up with on valentines day by two different people ;-;
I’m glad I could help you find your answer, even if it was one that sucks a little bit. Sending you a big hug from across the internet
If this is the same person from your previous post about ghosting each other for months at a time and only having one date that didn’t go well, then GET OUT OF THERE GIRLY
If its not:
Despite your assertion in the negative, it sounds like you’re being (intentionally or not) love bombed. Its intoxicating but it isn’t sustainable. Even if its not love bombing, it does sound like its a very intense, fast burning thing. You’re talking about marriage and having a family, which I don’t think is necessarily a terrible thing to have your cards on the table about reasonably early on, it seems a bit much.
If you take away the sparkly tingly fun exciting feelings (which will almost certainly dull to a more dull tingle over time), does it still seem right?
It is admirable that he’s putting in the work, but it sounds like he’s quite a far way from finishing his journey.
I’m tempted to say GET OUT OF THERE GIRLY but one never has the full picture with situations like this
I’m currently on antidepressants for like, my 7th year? And I was recently pointed to some pretty damning studies on the long term effects. definitely use them as a stopgap, but do whatever work you need to do to address the core issue(s) so you can get off them. Get therapy, establish support networks, work on your tools for dealing with episodes, etc. Then get off them, with your doctors guidance. (Not pointed at you, just commenting in light of what you mentioned about long term use)
If you’re struggling heavily with depression, you should definitely speak to your doctor. Antidepressants are a great measure to make things a bit more manageable while you get things back on track, get therapy, etc.
The napping during the day is almost certainly feeding back into worse night time sleep, which makes you need daytime naps, etc. I would do everything in your power to not only stop taking daytime naps, but also to establish a consistent sleep routine and bedtime ritual. You can essentially train your body to know it is bedtime, and a bedtime routine goes a long way with that. Pick a time you’re going to go to sleep every day (including weekends) and a time you’re going to wake up (and be awake) every day, including weekends. Treat them as law (within reason) and you should find it easier and easier to feel sleepy and get to sleep.
Consider using a sleep app (like sleep for android). It tracks your motion while you sleep, and can detect (roughly) your sleep cycles, as well as when you’re awake. If you set an alarm with a “smart period”(which you decide upon, mine is half an hour) for the time you have decided to wake you up, it will track your position in your sleep cycle and try to wake you up when you’re at your lightest sleep, which improves how easy it is to wake up and feel rested.
I know everyone always says “no screens before bed” but like yeah, actually try to get away from screens before bed. Most things we do on screens are very stimulating, which keeps your brain in a more awake, alert state. If you “switch off” an hour before your decided upon bedtime, and go about your bedtime routine, you may find sleep comes a lot easier.
Something that helps me a lot as well with sleep is something I learned from an ex-army chap. While you’re lying down to sleep, find your comfortable position, and then, starting with your tongue (which is actually the most important to focus on in my experience) relax each muscle one by one. I find if I don’t think about it, my tongue will be basically glued to the roof of my mouth and under pressure. Relax your tongue, then your eyes, your brow, cheeks, face, mouth/lips, neck, shoulders, upper arms, lower arms, hands and fingers, your chest and back, then your lower back, unclench your butt (crass but necessary), your upper legs, lower legs, and feet. As you relax each one, just take inventory and make sure the ones you already relaxed are still relaxed, especially your tongue. If you’re finding it hard to “manually” relax a muscle, tense it really hard for 5-10 seconds and then release, it should be easier to just let it relax. This technique is fucking magic I swear to you.
Best of luck to you, internet stranger, and good luck with your mental health journey.
I’m glad I could help, and best of luck!

Don’t ghost him, message him and explain that you’re not interested and you wish him well.
Was the coffee thing just nerves? Probably not, he seems fairly emotionally immature from your description and has some stuff to deal with before he’s ready to date.
Should anyone be expected to pay for the other? No, unless the other party has suggested a venue which they know is outside of your means. Even if first dates, gendered stereotyped expectations are dumb.
Is it okay for someone to suggest a venue? Yes!

Baba is You isn’t originally a mobile game but it has a native version which is pretty excellent
To answer your question, its as others have mentioned: catching a whale is more lucrative than appealing to the average consumer. The entire micro transactions industry (which mobile gaming is built upon and makes it the most profitable portion of the gaming industry by a mile) is all about milking your customers for everything they have without them realising it. Why did we reach this point? Unregulated capitalism, probably.
Oh, yeah, I’m quite aware of this fact. Blew my mind when I found out the first time.
“Archaic or British” as a Brit, losing my mind at how accurate this is
It makes me sick to my stomach. Stay safe, everyone
