The Gap
I could see, in a small gap between two apartment buildings from my window, the fireworks blazing over the city. It wasn’t much of a view but to me it felt perfect. A window in the right apartment building caught my eye and I found myself looking at a teenager, dark wavy hair, slightly overweight,…
Brooklyn Sellout

Ironically living
The World seems so Chaotic when you focus on it…Soley on it. But if you explain your vision – you see the beauty in sorrow, the Comedy in tragedy and the irony in truth. submitted by /u/This-Document6252 [link] [comments]
Protruding item from closet ceiling, not a lamp. Threaded collar keeps it in place
We’ve unscrewed the collar but it still hangs loose, not clear what it is! There’s a switch in the room but it only seems to control an outlet (no ceiling lamp / light in the room). White, about a foot wide in diameter. submitted by /u/chym3d [link] [comments]
My New Year’s Resolution. No more paid leads.
My New Year’s Resolution, reducing reliance on paid leads. Over the last 5 years, I’ve started and worked with local service businesses where the main lead source was Angi or Thumbtack. It’s the same story every time. You have a 4.8 star average review on Google, you pay to quote a lead, it’s a fair…

The Year I Realized I Was Two People
I wanted to share this because it meant a lot to write, and I know many people struggle with figuring out who they are. If you’re going through something like that, you’re not alone — way more people feel this way than you might think. I hope you find your real identity someday, and I…
Echoes of Eternity
The moon hangs low, spilling its quiet silver across the restless sea. Our old boat drifts gently, rocked by waves that seem to echo the rhythm of our breathing. You hold my face with a tenderness that asks nothing, your touch warm, unhurried, as if time itself has slowed to watch us exist. When our…

December should have 28 days (29 in leap years)
The gap between Christmas and New Years is awkward. Many people can’t take two full weeks off. Those that do work are totally unproductive. So my fix? February gets 31 days and December gets 28. That means two major holidays and two quasi holidays (christmas eve and new years eve) in the same 7 day…

Dear G.G. “Right now”. How I wish I had looked at those words differently. It’s too late now, and so be it. I’m writing this because I need it. My soul, these feelings, and my mind have to make peace with you. I’ll speak the truth about my perspective of our relationship: our relationship was…
Does Starting a Business Early Give You an Advantage?
I’ve been thinking about this a lot. Not in a “hustle at 18 or you’re late” way, but in a more realistic sense. Starting early doesn’t always mean instant success, but it does give you time. Time to make mistakes, learn what you’re actually good at, and figure out how business really works. You can…
(Hospitality/entertainment)How would you aim to structure a dinner theatre deal like the one below?

How do you find the right beta testers for a niche B2B analytical tool?
My partner and I are building a B2B analytical product and we’re at the point where we want to bring in a small group of beta users. We’re not trying to scale or market yet. The challenge is finding people who actually live in the problem space and can give structured, critical feedback, rather than…

A fictional podcast-style interview with Santa, set on the 26th December
I wrote a fictional interview with Santa taking place the day after Christmas, when the pressure’s gone and the questions get a bit more honest. It’s written like a loose podcast conversation with interruptions, long answers, awkward pauses, etc , and focuses on returns, disappointment, socks, influencers, and modern Christmas expectations. Curious whether this format…

Do you remember how much thought you put into losing your virginity?. Maybe it was a specific day, weather, season, or place. I didn’t have a plan per se, but I do remember younger me saying, “I’d probably only lose my virginity if some tipsy girl jumped me and demanded to be fucked.” A sad…

Demolish every so-called airport to make room for building actual airports, ie. terminals and runways that sit thousands of feet up in the air.
The real fuel economy method lies not in building airstrips at an incline (although that can’t hurt either) but in removing the need for aircrafts to climb upwards so much in the first place, only for them to then waste so much of their acquired kinetic energy by reducing altitude then braking heavily. Planes could…
We should tax AI companies for every GB of RAM they use to train models, since they’re causing my new laptop to cost $500 more than last year
I’ve been saving up for months to upgrade my laptop, and when I finally went to buy one, I nearly fell over seeing the prices. Memory prices have shot up because AI companies are hoarding all the chips to train their models. Seriously, why should regular consumers pay more just so ChatGPT can learn to…
An app where you get paid for vandalizing public advertisements.
They’re putting ad screens on airplane seats. Gas station pumps. Kiosks. Random electronic billboards everywhere. Sometimes actual billboards or physical ads can be annoying. Nothing but corporate slop. With this app, you’d get to vandalize these ads beyond recognition for the good of society. Small businesses would be exempt if they aren’t obnoxious. submitted by…
