    @@Amber57499 Money is not important if you become a hippie. Everybody has a talent, even if it is a little hidden. Find out what you really like and watch vids here about it to get the skills. Other people do the same. Every artist for example has to learn the basics. And then stop to shit in bucketts. Become proud of the temples you built! 😁👍🏻😆 Be proud of who you are. Wear your head above your neck, not in front it. Look upwards and laugh as much as possible. And whenever you think something destructive put 4 very positive thoughts after it: your favourite holiday place, pizza, football team...whatever. It just should be positive. This makes new connections in your brain. And after a few weeks you have a totally different shine that surrounds you. You don't need beauty, muscles, money or even legs to find the perfect lady for you! But a relationship built on bad feelings and sadness is always kinda toxic. But when you train your brain to be positive your face will show this with its lines. Keep your body upright and tell yourself to be proud until you believe it. Once you startet to tell you that your life is shit. And you even believe this. But you have a computer to communicate, an intact brain, wishes and a life. And you are probably not dying of hunger. And you are hopefully not homeless. And you don't live in a country of war and destruction where you lost your whole family, right? Your life is much better than other people's lives on this planet. Be happy! Smile, sing, dance and explore life once more. And when you really feel this you will find your lady and a better job for sure. ♡ Another great thing is meditation: train your brain to be empty. No thoughts. Just feel your breath, your body, the moment right now. No past, no future, no thoughts, no problems. Just you and your pure existance. It takes training. Stop breathing for a moment and find out that your brain stops thinking in this second. And hold this feeling as long as possible. It will be longer for a second every day and then these moments will feel like holiday and helps you calm down in every situation. I tell you all this because I felt the same and I know how painful it is to have these sad thoughts about the own life. I was so depressive and I even thought to did not care about dropping dead... I got out of all this by these simple things I told you. And by the thought that I have the value to be here. It is not by chance. I am here to explore life with all its shades. And now you recovered the darker ones which gives your character depth and deep thoughts and empathy for others. This is more attractive for a lady than somebody who would laugh at her problems. I am sure you will find your way out if you really want. And if it is your greatest wish to finish with this try this out. You will feel changes immediately. Laugh for 5 minutes without reason and you will feel so much better and relaxed because your body breathes better and deeper and fills up with endorphines. Do it before leaving tge door and pleople will react different on you. Also the ladies. My very best wishes for you! From the bottom of my heart!♡♡♡

    @@bernhardkrickl3567 you mean one of the crappy Tiefspülers where every time you drop a shit you get a "nice" splash of cold shit water? I mean, yeah, they prevent stink if you "sit and brood" on your turd and yeah, you might not have to brush them as much and maybe you think using the toilet brush is gross. But how on earth can you not be totally grossed out by that splash of cold, ugly, dirty water coming right back up at you when you drop your turd? Plus, Flachspüler flush much better. I think it's because the water is accellerated when it has to go over the flat part. I have had Flachspülers at all my homes and I'm never going to give them up for one of those awful Tiefspülers. I've sat (and shat) on many different types of Tiefspüler during bathroom breaks in different jobs or at restaurants, gyms, etc. and most of them flushed less well and *all* of them gave me an unwanted splash. Terrbile things!

    A stand-up comedian steals a joke from another comedian. No one bats an eyelid. It's the delivery, the timing and context that counts. A science cabaret performer ('Wissenschaftscabaretist' is Ebert's own term for his act) steals a joke from a philosopher, and people go nuts. I guess Ebert has set a high standard for himself. Or maybe the internet police need to use the Flachspüler and examine their own dumps.
