raceconditioner··on Ask HN: Have you ever hit absolute rock bottom?
Thank you for the reading material. I believe I'm going to find myself in a similar situation soon and having those resources could really improve my chances of recovery.
raceconditioner··on Ask HN: Have you ever hit absolute rock bottom?
Thanks for sharing. I didn't mean to invalidate your experience by listing what I thought represented rock-bottom -- I was just tossing a couple of examples around. I agree that we all have our limits and that's usually when the self-destructive thoughts begin.
raceconditioner··on Ask HN: Where can I find pornography that is in the public domain?
Yeah, I've been using Flickr for my project but I was just curious if something else in the public domain existed. Also, does Unsplash accept pornography? I couldn't really find anything on there.

In what way?

If you're stuck on windows maybe you could try this:

raceconditioner··on Ask HN: How do you see life changing after the coronavirus?
My naive predictions:

- Countries are going to become increasingly authoritarian, not unlike what happened after the Great Depression

- There are going to be a lot of angry poor people looking for someone to blame and they might become violent; there might be riots, protests, or calls for revolution

- There might be a slight increase in abortions or births depending on the current prudence of couples

- Some countries might start experimenting with permanent Universal Basic Income once they realize how unnecessary most jobs have become

- Mental health and self-esteem is going to degrade (esp. in the younger generation); there might be a sharp increase in suicides or people who choose to opt out and become recluses

- We will see a very strong push towards smart cities, cybernetics, and eugenics by the start of the next decade

- Leaks upon leaks of nude media from all the random sexting going on during the quarantine

- Plenty of divorces
