  • What is the funniest impulse purchase you’ve made/seen someone you know make?

  • These are amazing. Where did they end up going?

  • Which career path is not ruined by AI?

    Jump

  • I work a physical/tactile job in healthcare. My job won't be in danger until robotics dramatically advance and cheapen. AI could conceptually do my job, but the physicality is missing. A lot of healthcare careers are this way. Not all of them are though, so be wise in your choice!

  • i have this

    Jump

  • I'm really sorry, dude. I really wish corporations weren't so soulless. :(

  • Anyone struggle with this?

    Jump

  • I do 100% feel this and do know that it often holds true.

    But I've been dealing with a major episode of social rejection and abandonment from those who I felt fairly close to during a major life event. Happened over a span of several months last year culminating in the "climax" in early October before abruptly "ending".

    But I still struggle to move past it. I am even still friends with the people this happened with. We have a lot of good times, but things happen where it resurfaces and then it's hard to get out of. :(

    I've been in an intensive DBT program and while I have found it to be massively helpful for a lot of my base negative emotions, it doesn't really touch this one much.

    I'm honestly at a loss of how to begin to resolve this one. Does this part need a different type of therapy after my DBT program is done?

  • foods/meals that feel like a hug?

    Jump

  • Really taking in and focusing on the sensations of a hot cup of coffee can do it for me. The smell, the taste, the warmth both from holding the mug and also when drinking it.

  • Clankers 🔪🔪🔪

    Jump

  • ...yes, and? I don't get what your comment is trying to get at. I'm sorry that I'm not an uber paranoid luddite. I use modern tech. The name is in jest.

  • I got one of those automatic litter robots recently and this is what I named it

  • Waffle House: Pull up then. 😐

    Jump

  • Interesting. I didn't hear this part. Do you have more on this backstory? I watched a video from chair girl, but she didn't mention instigating anything. I mean I definitely wouldn't blame her for not wanting to admit it lol.

  • Waffle House: Pull up then. 😐

    Jump

  • She got fired for this video, unfortunately. :(

  • Thanks for nothing

    Jump

  • And then they never take it out of the packaging to even look at it.

    I don't get it either.

  • It will

    Jump

  • Not really related, but...

    An interesting thing I was suggested to try in therapy when upset was to just stand outside in weather like this and physically focus on and notice the physical sensations on your body. It's not something I'm obligated to do and I was given other ideas of things to try instead, but I thought it was a fun idea. Idk if I'd ever have the balls to do it but still lol.

  • Day before workday anxiety

    Jump

  • If it's not the work itself causing anxiety, then what is it about the transition that does?

  • Day before workday anxiety

    Jump

  • What specifically about work are you anxious about? What kind of work do you do?

  • Does anybody else's anti-depressants wear off after taking a nap or otherwise sleeping?

    Jump

  • Seems common enough to have a lower mood at night. Idk why really but I've always been the same.

  • Does anybody else's anti-depressants wear off after taking a nap or otherwise sleeping?

    Jump

  • How bizarre! Usually when I'm having a bad night, sleep helps me because the thoughts quiet down. I've been on a low dose of Seroquel. Bad thoughts can get to me at night but I seem to just fall asleep on the med which makes them go away and stay quiet into the next morning!

  • Awesome tattoo by @zuluagamayor

    Jump

  • Photos like this are always so disingenuous because even newly healed tattoos never look like that. Day one pics always look insane, but they don't look like that even a month later. Not that it will look bad a month later or anything, but it just won't look like this.

    Idk how long something in this style stays "readable". One of the important factors is how big it is too.

    DBT therapy doesn't work (I read and practice skills for 30 mins a day M-F), meds don't work, consistent cardio doesn't work. Where do I even go from here? (long rant, sorry)
