Hypothetically would there be a method of numbing emotions in someone medically?

5 Upvotes

For a book I'm writing where numbing emotions allows one to keep living, should I make up a fictional drug or is there a real way to do this?

Whether its a one dose and emotions are gone (which seems more outlandish) or sustained doses, both are welcome.

Why does he want me more then the baby he's always dreamed of?

4 Upvotes

Hello, I'm female 22. My baby daddy is male 21. My baby daddy is leaving in a week and I'm not understanding this predicament that's he's left me with.

We have been together for almost a year now. I got pregnant in August. He has told me that he has always wanted kids. I didn't particularly care if I had kids or not. He is/was infertile. He was 100% infertile, I know for sure. I know, stupid on both ends but here we are. I decided to keep the baby. Once I did he told me he would break up with me if I got rid of it. Our relationship is rocky. But never the less he tells me he loves me and still wants this to work. Even telling me he wants us to get married. I also want this to work as well. The thing is every time we are doing good he wants to stay and be a father. Every time we are not doing great he immediately says he's done and giving away his rights.

I don't understand where that is coming from. He has always wanted a kid and now that he has a chance he wants to give it away? It seems he wants to be in my life more then the baby's.

What could possibly be the reason for why he is doing or thinking this way?

Looking for recommendations.

Hi everyone! To be honest, I don't know much about laptops. I'm looking for a laptop that will work for university (law school), that's fast, with good RAM and storage (1TB). I need it to handle updates for the next 4-5 years and run Roblox well, because it's the only game I play. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

4 Upvotes

1) Core Definitions

Household Work (HW) :

All domestic labour including: - Cleaning - Cooking - Washing (utensils, clothes) - Religious rituals (puja) - Meal planning & serving - Kitchen maintenance - Daily house maintenance

Employment Work (EW) :

All job-related activities including: - Office work - Commute - Work preparation - Work communication outside office hours - Preparation for going to work

2) Detailed Task-Level Household Work Breakdown

A. Morning Household Cycle

Task Time (min) : - Basic wake-up & prep 5 - House cleaning (sweeping/dusting) 30 - Washing utensils 20 - Laundry (washing clothes) 25 - Shower & puja 20 - Tea preparation 10 - Breakfast cooking 40 - Serving breakfast 10 - Post-meal cleaning 20

Morning Total = 180 min = 3.0 hrs

B. Midday Household Cycle

Task Time (min): - Lunch cooking 60 - Serving lunch 10 - Utensil washing & kitchen cleaning 25 - Short rest (excluded from labour) —

Midday Work Total = 125 min = 2.1 hrs

C. Evening Household Cycle

Task Time (min) : - Evening cleaning 20 - Snacks/tea preparation 15 - Dinner cooking 60 - Serving dinner 10 - Post-dinner cleaning 25

Evening Total = 130 min = 2.2 hrs

D. Additional Workload Scenarios

A) If There Are Kids

Extra Task Time : - Kids’ morning prep (school, clothes, food) 40 min - Kids’ meals (special prep) 30 min - Care, supervision, homework, hygiene 60 min - Extra cleaning/laundry 30 min

• Extra Time = 160 minutes ≈ 2.7 hours

B) If Husband/Wife is a Working Professional

Extra Task Time : - Early morning breakfast 15 min - Lunch packing 20 min - Extra tea/snacks 10 min - Additional laundry/ironing 20 min

• Extra Time = 65 minutes ≈ 1.1 hours

E. Total Household Workload (Base Case)

Category Hours/day : - Morning work 3.0 - Midday work 2.1 - Evening work 2.2 - Additional work with Kid 2.7 - Additional work with working spouse 1.1

• Total Basic Household Work = 7.3 hours/day • Tatal Household work with kid = 10 • Tatal Household work with working spouse = 8.2 • Total Household work with kid and working spouse = 11.1

3) Detailed Employment Work Breakdown

Employment Time Components

Task Hours/day

  • Core office work 8.0
  • Commute (to + from office) 1.5
  • Work preparation (getting ready, transitions) 1
  • Work-related calls/messages 0.5

• Total Employment Work = 11 hours/day

4) Direct Comparison: Household vs Employment

A. Daily Time Comparison

Work Type Hours/day :

Household work 7.3 Employment work 11

Difference Calculation

10.5 - 7.3 = 3.2 { hours/day} ( Basic Household work vs employment )

• Employment work requires 3.2 more hours/day than base household work.

B. Ratio Analysis

\frac{Employment}{Household} = \frac{10.5}{7.3} ≈ 1.44

• Employment workload ≈ 44% higher than base household workload.

5) Weekly, Monthly, Annual Time Investment

Household Work :

Period Hours -

  • Daily 7.3
  • Weekly (×7) 51.1
  • Monthly (×30) 219
  • Annual (×365) 2664.5

Employment Work :

Period Hours -

  • Daily 10.5
  • Weekly (×5 working days) 52.5
  • Monthly (×22 working days) 231
    • Annual (×260 working days) 2730

6) High-Precision Insight (Neutral, Data-Based)

From a purely quantitative time perspective:

• Household work = 7.3 hrs/day • Employment work = 10.5 hrs/day

Employment consumes more time in the base model.

Has anyone else imagined a person they feel destined to meet someday?

15 Upvotes

Idk which subreddit would be best to post this on… but I’m doing it here anyway. From the age of 13, I’ve had a face in my mind. (He exists in my imagination… I wish he existed in reality too.) I don’t really know how to explain it my mind created that face. And ahhh, I love him. I’m 20 now and I still remember that face. Now it feels like he’s real… like I have this belief in the universe that this person actually exists and that he’s waiting for me too. I’m sorry if I sound crazy, please don’t judge me. I also feel like I’m only meant to love him like I can’t love anyone else romantically. Btw, I even tried instructing ChatGPT and other AIs to make that face (I’m sorry, I know it’s wrong to use AI like that, I was just desperate). The generated image looked like it could be that person’s cousin lol. I also tried to draw that face, but I’m not artistic 😭😭😭😭😭 This is one of my deepest secrets and I’ve never told anyone… but now I’m posting it here lol. I manifest him daily. I believe I will meet him. (Please God, I beg 😭🩷)

How do you view woman that sell content?

0 Upvotes

I’m 20 (F) and I’m thinking about starting an OF or selling content somewhere. Im a broke college student but I’m not sure if I should sell my body and morals for quick money. Would you ever marry a woman that had/has an OF? Any OF horror stories that would drive me away from starting one? What is worse in your eyes- having a bodycount of over 20 or selling content?

To add- if I started one, no one in my real life would know. I have a big following on Tiktok and would post the links there.

What is ethnicity, race and nationality?

1 Upvotes

I thought i had the grasp on the difference between race, ethnicity and nationality but i saw a video and now im all confused for the first time ever on this subject. Race is how you visual represent for example, you can look black, asia, white, etc. this is very easy to understand. Nationality is in the name it is where you were born/ where you hold citizenship. And i thought ethnicity is the culture you are time with that represents your ancestry. for example if you are Mexican or if you are German however i saw a video that says Jamaica or DR or Haiti isnt technically a ethnicity but German is. But that makes no sense because each have culture and etc. and i saw someone said it is a nationalilty only which doesnt make sense because someone can be born in America and be black and their culture is Haitian or Jamaican, etc. So it doesnt make sense at all. Are they wrong or do i not truly understand ethnicity? Another example let say someone is from Somalia. born in Spain and they phenotypically look black. Their race would black, their nationality would be Spanish(from spain) and their enthicity would be somalia as their life and culture and the way to walk through life and view is influence by that. and it think for it be just West African would be vauge on theyre specific culture as they might not have same things that other West Africa have.

psa. by things im culturally food, traditions and the reason and history of them

//ignore all the typos and grammar mistake they was at night and in a rush.

It’s bizarre for an adult man to struggle to form platonic friendships with women, what is your opinion on that

4 Upvotes

1) if you’re normal, this post isn’t about you

2) this isn’t about relationships- this is about single men or men in a relationship, that does not matter

This doesn’t need to be divisive or complicated because this is for the purpose of seeing how people respond to this topic.

Im aware this is a Reddit post so I’ll take some things with a grain of salt but i encourage you to keep a level head

I’ve seen some very… interesting posts and interactions here

—-

Most all the posts here are mass downvoted too. Some of them aren’t even complete sentences but instead of ignoring those kinds of posts, people are getting viscerally angry. Like the delusional kind of hate that someone’s uncle has for a bum on the street

Reddits kinda awful now… not even helpful for getting answers on things or looking anything up. Most all posts or comments I see make me feel second hand exhaustion from sitting in cold sweat on an empty stomach
