CS student here. I'm unable to find a working student job (those entry level IT jobs with like 10-15 hours a week). They never accept me. I was planning to just work at a supermarket for the next semester while doing some projects or something that I can put on my resume to get a job later. Any tips on what I should do to increase my chances? For context I live in Berlin and I'm German

it's already mid March. you need to apply September-December for those kinds of jobs the next summer. Everyone has known this for 15+years. Presently, it will probably take hundreds of applications in those months. You might be able to start looking now for something in the winter.
>>
>>34336669
Since no one is offering helpful advice. Internships are just now starting for companies. Apply for an internship. They specifically look for students in most of them so, no, you won't be competing with as many applications.

Also try to apply for positions that are IT related (cyber security, application analyst, etc.) that will at least get your foot in the door and give you the work experience

I've been expat in spain from Russia since 2023 August. My visa ended in 2023 so I decided to stay illegally. Somehow my family managed to help me with finances until 2025 September. Now I'm by my own im in my early 20's and I've been working in bar for last 5 months obviously without papers and now I lost this job and have my last 9 euros on bank account. My current rent ends at 31 of March I still don't know where I'm gona live after. So basically no documents, no money, nothing. Almost no food I had this situation already in October and I dont want to repeat this experience. I've been threated by my neighbor in house to pay asap or leave from house also he wanted me to work for him doing massages to his clients and give him 50% of income. Every week he came to house and was pressing me to pay in cash to his hands to avoid taxes. And asked me to write him every week if I did put money to box so he could collect em later to send to owner. He was even earning money from subrent. Im living in less than 3 m square room.i don't know what to do and I'm thinking about ending my life at this point. I know I can ask help of charity but I don't want to feel so miserable. I just see it as the end. What you would do. I have a lot of ambitious obviously but I'm too unstable that this thought killing all ambitions in me making me depressed laying in bed. That's the end of story. I don't know what to do.

Seek help from others Russians and Orthodox Church, if they don`t help then say you are Ukrainian from Donbas, Crimea or some Eastern Region occupied and go ask for help with Ukranians or some NGO, or even the local government.
>>
>>34334889
why would you go to spain instead of a country all the other russians were seeking refuge in? get a job for a month and save up, and go somewhere that's accepting of russians and easy to stay in for as long as you'd like, probably something like serbia since they have hundreds of thousands of russians and ukrainians, don't discriminate against you and are the easiest option to stay in legally. or go to georgia or armenia, anything but spain lol
>>
>>34335038
Can you claim some kind of refugee status, because you are technically escaping war or conscription?
>>
bro you still have like 18 days until the end of the month you can probably figure something out in that time. You said your family used to support you financially until September 2025 so I think you should try to ask for help from them again. also If you can ask a charity for help just do it bro cuz sometimes charity money ends up going to people who don’t even need it or deserve it ( like my uncle )and you already managed to find a job without papers before sooo you might be able to do it again the same way .maybe try contacting your old job and see if they can take you back or ask your family or even other russians you know in Spain for help It's early to start thinking about suicide there is some hope , laying in the bad wont help you .you still have time

Last comment gave me strength but still kinda depressed as he'll but thank you Op I appreciate it.

If an apartment allows dogs but has a weight limit of 50 pounds could I lie and say my 85 lb dog is 50 lbs?
Do apartment people actually care? Would they really notice just by eyeballing that hes too big?

>does the dog effect me in any way? if not, fine - if yes, complain
99% of apartment people won't mind a big dog as long as it doesn't bark or leave turds around
the others are scared of dogs or whatever

I'd say the dog was 50lb last time you weighed them, then explain the dog is old and chill

then you can mention that. also as i said i think this is 100% a breed thing (specifically not wanting pits/pit mixes or any "restricted" breeds). I live in europe and never ever heard of something like this so my assumption is that it's an anti-pit measure, simple as that.

I'm surprised that dog is 85lb, the dog I had growing up was that size and only weighed 50lb but I guess they were skinnier breeds

how the fuck do you get pictures for dating apps like hinge or tinder. 23m white

i have zero pics of myself besides a bunch of selfies. according to my research a dating profile is supposed to have the following:
>a picture of you doing a hobby
i have none
>a picture of you in a social setting/social proof
no one can take take pictures of me becuase i have no fucking friends (ai?)
>full body shot
i have no mirror and i heard that mirror selfies are a no go
>a "cute" picture with an animal like a dog or cat
i have none, should i go to a shelter and take a cat or dog with me for a day to take pictures or is that weird
>niche culture references
i only have sonnenrad edits or shitty twitter memes on my phone

And make sure you're as attractive as you reasonably can be. Get lenses if you're wearing glasses, get a good haircut, use something for your acne, get rid of the bags under your eyes unless you're into some kind of an alternative style or something.

And also, you're 23, not that many women swipe on younger guys I feel like. Especially in their 20s. So if you don't have a lot of luck roght now, don't feel down, just work on yourself and get back to it later. When you're late 20's there will be a larger pool of women.

I bullied one of my friends pretty badly in high school and he won’t stop leaving threatening messages and generally sends really angry messages and then blocks me.

I hit him more than once but it was over eight years ago now and the messages don’t stop coming in.

How do I handle this? He goes away for months and then it randomly happens again and again. He even apologizes and then months pass and he’s sending his address and dares me to show up to fight him.

It might help to understand why he's leaving these messages. You might need to have a proper conversation where you reconcile and bury the hatchet.

If you can't reasonably make him stop then at some point you might need to block him. What you did back then wasn't right but that doesn't give him a free pass to harass you indefinately. If it's not a bad idea and you're getting close to that point you can respectfully warn him before hand, that if he doesn't stop you'll need to block or unfriend him.

If you're playing on PC, a framerate too low can fuck you up. It personally makes me feel nauseous pretty quickly. Make sure you play at least at 60 FPS and the framerate doesn't dip like hell every 2 seconds. If you're on console, try performance mode and don't play 30 FPS games.

>>34335824
I think you feel like you're stagnating and want a girlfriend, I feel the same way and had periods where I couldn't touch games even though I wanted to, or periods that are arguably worse where I wanted to play specific games but instead ended up playing other ones that I don't particularly want to play and it doesn't make sense.
So yeah man this is a much more common issue than you think. If I had to truly reflect about myself, as someone who has experienced this issue a lot in my 29 years of life, to truly try and get to the bottom of it - the points in my life when I felt this, were points where I wanted a gf.
The urges won, to have a gf and reproduce and play the best game out there which is having a girlfriend. And I don't want to have kids at the moment so when I say reproduce I'm just making a connection to a biological reason as to why this is happening. There's a need written into your body by your very nature through evolution and you can't escape it.
In short.......... Your body is signaling to you that something has to change...... It doesn't mean forever, but something does have to happen.

Sounds very tricky to pull off correctly, so I'm tempted to say no. There's also much more direct/straightforward methods of getting off anyway (>>>/jp/50736586 and such). Then again, I've never done it so maybe it'd be nice.
>safely keep the water from getting cold
Maybe using some hand warmers (like taped to the bag) could do it? I have no gauge for safety on that though.

You look like Ian Hawke. I'd totally do /biz/ with you. There's gotta be a point though where you recognize the spectrum of luck, some guys are born with genetics leaning more towards Henry Cavill, it's sad because nobody chose to be what they are and you have to accept it. Despite that luck, the cope is always being a good sociopath, the luck just makes it easier. Have you seen that movie wardogs, the big guy Jonah Hill plays has the same luck in that aspect you do but he still plays the game. There's a part he answers the phone, "yeah I'm with a prostitute" and he becomes the big money guy in spite of no true love. Women are shallow, sorry.

No woman will ever love you, 90% of women out there do not love their man, they don't know how to love anyway; they only tolerate him as long as he provides.
Learn to be stoic and get by without their fake and subpar love therefore about 90% of women should be invisible to you. Rise up above your biological programming.
Take care of your health anons and find distractions to help pass the time, that's all most people do anyway, the difference is they do it with somebody so time spent together flows differently. It's merely an illusion though

I‘ve hated being a woman ever since I started going through puberty. I hate other women too. I think that women are all that is wrong with humanity and they never should have gotten any rights or special treatment. However, unlike what the trans movement leads people to believe, I can never become a real man. I don’t have the genes a man has. At best I am a retarded, mentally ill, physically disabled version of a man. Not to mention being forced to perform the only method of reaching female sexual satisfaction, the humiliation ritual called penetrative sex.

I tried my best in life to reach the highest level I could given my circumstances. Studied hard, got a job abroad (unfortunately my workspace is plagued by women although it‘s STEM research), worked out to reach even a fraction of a man‘s natural power. With all of that effort, maybe I‘ve reached the level of a man lacking all ambition in life, minus a functional penis and inability to become pregnant. After a while, I realised that my life is as worth as a cow in a farm and I stopped seeing the point in continuing to work hard.

I have family I care about, I even think I would make a good mother, but that’s all my life can realistically amount to. Maybe I‘m not seeing some worth others can see. I don’t take other women’s opinions seriously, and men can only mention the worth of women in terms of breeding, childcare, taking care of men‘s needs. There is nothing glorious about being a female, but maybe there is a way to lobotomise myself into enjoying this pathetic life so that I don’t traumatise my family and friends by shooting my brains off.

Part of me expects you to make fun of me and push me towards ending it, but maybe we can have some sincere thoughts. This topic is not something I can discuss with many people without being brushed off as insane.

to embrace the gift of one self is to find peace. you sought to be others, but fail to acknowledge the sorrow of others. i find it amusing how we all seek a mean to mourn, for all of us sought to be virtuous, the virtue of enduring and conquering, or just that modern life brew modern problem. nonetheless, what im trying to convey is that you would still bitch if you were a man, as to be competent as a man is almost to embrace the loneliness in the pursuit of triumph. the other side of the field isnt necessary greener even if you have the mean to go there

I'm considering going on a (((dating app))) again. I tried Tinder and Umatch, with premium on both. On Tinder I got one match, 5 likes, and on Umatch I got fucking nothing. On Tinder I put in that I was autistic in my bio, and Umatch I put it as well, and right wing at the politics option on my profile. I'm also going to fraud my height from 1.75 cm to 1.80cm this time.

What do you all suggest? Umatch or Tinder?

Tinder should be your main one - you can still use both and I'm pretty sure tinder has a University mode

>On Tinder I put in that I was autistic in my bio, and Umatch I put it as well, and right wing at the politics option on my profile

I know you're retarded but you don't need to announce it on Tinder - you should take both that shit out of your bio and first try to sound normal
then after that you can work on looking and sounding like a normalfag and not a complete faggot
try to make sure you don't look like a splerg in your images either

also I'm pretty sure for tinder you don't have to put a height in and you'll have people do a 360 and walk away when they see you're 5cm shorter than expected - either leave the height or only fraud to something you can pull off irl (+-2cm on your height, shoes with taller heels/soles etc.)

LMFAOOOO

I wouldn't consider myself especially big or intimidating. I'm sort of fat but not scary. I'm currently 5'11 and weigh 230 pounds. I live in America so by my country's standards I'm actually kind of skinny relatively speaking. But anyway it's like everywhere I go women are immediately wary of me. Like I'll be walking down the street, a woman passes by seems initially fine, but once she gets within like 10 feet of me she'll make a scared face, start stepping back slowly while looking at me, start clutching her purse, till I eventually pass by her and ignore her.

And it happens all the fucking time. One especially egregious example was this woman who was walking her dog, it was a rather big dog too, and as soon as I walk by her she starts to step back slowly, widening her eyes, and clutches her dog, and even her dog seemed like it was like "calm the fuck down lady."

At first I thought it was maybe just in my head but I was out with a friend and he was like "yeah that lady was scared shitless of you." And for me it's just like what the fuck? I don't even give a shit about these random women and yet they're so scared of me? What the hell is so wrong with me that they're so scared of me?

That's especially troubling considering your 20s is usually supposed to be the prime of your adult life. If they're this overweight in their 20s then they'll probably be at minimum double that weight by their 30s or 40s. No wonder so many guys are sick of America and wanna move elsewhere.

i mean it's really not that hard to figure out. it's because they perceive openly gay men as far less of a threat because why would they rape someone of the sex they're not even attracted to? also because gay men are far more willing to just be friends with them rather than hoping that one day they could be more than friends

do you have a shaved head or something? my bf told me that when he had a shaved head he looked exactly like gg allin, and together with his style/the clothes he wears, people were constantly intimidated by him.
he's a bit chubby too but looks strong, i think on some guys some chubbiness can make them look "bigger", in the intimidating way. so it could also be that combined with a male "resting bitch face".

Coming from a Euro View here but need a hard kick up the ass from /adv/.

Long and short of it, I am purchasing my first house with my fiance. For full context, I have gone from a single, living with parents shut in to having a fiance, a stable mid level job and in a position to buy a house.

We searched for months and realised with our combined income, we couldn't get bith a good location and a good house.

After 6 months of searching, we have found a home which needs a lot of TLC and the layout is bugging me as the sitting area to eat is tiny. But I know I should be grateful to have a home at all, its 3 bedrooms and in a safe area. But its not what I pictured but my fiance and I went through with concerns of inflation and it ticked our boxes.

But I can't help but feel we should have waited. Talk sense in to me to be a bit more appreciative of even having a home.

Especially since you already did it, what matters most is getting any house. The only reason you should borrow more against it is to get another or investments that lead to another. Be your own bank now.
>>
>>34332676
Thanks man. No we don't intend to borrow more, that's it. It's standard to get a Mortage but we are both quite sensible with money.

I suppose what's irking me is the good houses were in not so good areas (safety or transport) and this was the best compromise with my parents close and easy transport.

Its not a perfect house but i just need a good boot up the ass.
>>
>>34332652
In a similar situation as you. To avoid the feelings of regret and anxiety. I recommend making the house as comfortable as possible (New carpets, new vanity, learning to paint/patch holes, etc. If you do that, in a year or 2, you may actually realize you just didn't like the energy of the home and needed to make it more "you".

As a new homeowner, I learned that to own a home you either are rich enough to get things fixed, or you learn to do it yourself.

Location, location, location is a massive cliche but it's true that although you can improve an average house in a reasonable area, you can't do much about a palace in a place where you're scared of getting shanked or robbed every time you step outside.
