This. Surround yourself with good people and your life will be better in general.

Dying in battle wasn't the meat grinder event Hollywood makes it out to be.

Battles probably looked more like this footage from a West Papua Tribal War where the #1 priority is staying alive.

I'd speculate the whole Valhalla thing is an emotional cope from watching your buddy who you've fought many battles with die violently.

I googled it and it's BS.

Events in general because you all have at least 1 thing in common you can talk about (the event).

Also you need a reason to be there other than meeting women or tldr you'll give off ick vibes. It's like the desperate salesman who drives away customers.

Someone who's genuinely there to have fun will be much more attractive in general.

My advice for anyone that wants a loving relationship is to expand your social circles. Spending time with friends, meeting their friends, and making new friends. Join a hobby club or a team sport. The person you meet through friends, who you already have commonalities with, is probably gonna be more compatible with you than the person you matched on tinder for superficial reasons.

Isn't there a loophole that if you die during sex you get a free pass?

It's not gonna collapse until it becomes properly regulated. The rich have realized they can pump and dump crypto and leave retail investors holding the bag.

It'll work to because MAGA supporters will see the USD tanking and buy right into the grift.

They should hang Netanyahu on October 16th to make the message clear.

"Our analysis reveals that receiving a smartphone before age 13 is associated with poorer mind health outcomes in young adulthood, particularly among females, including suicidal thoughts, detachment from reality, poorer emotional regulation, and diminished self-worth. These correlations are mediated through several factors, including social media access, cyberbullying, disrupted sleep, and poor family relationships. "

it is not stated what about social media is so harmful?

They're listing "mediating factors"; which is not exclusive to bad things even if it contributes to bad outcomes.

Our analysis reveals that receiving a smartphone before age 13 is associated with poorer mind health outcomes in young adulthood, particularly among females, including suicidal thoughts, detachment from reality, poorer emotional regulation, and diminished self-worth. These correlations are mediated through several factors, including social media access, cyberbullying, disrupted sleep, and poor family relationships.

What this is saying is:

"receiving a smartphone before age 13" + "social media access, cyberbullying, disrupted sleep, and poor family relationships" = "poorer mind health outcomes in young adulthood, particularly among females, including suicidal thoughts, detachment from reality, poorer emotional regulation, and diminished self-worth."

The cellphone in isolation isn't harmful. It's the access to social media intended for adults, the 24/7 avenue for cyberbullying, the physiological interruptions to circadian rhythm due to screen time, and exasperated emotional damage of poor family dynamics where cellphones replace face to face intimacy.
