@envidreamz It didn't occur to me until I read your comment, but I completely agree - lately I feel like I'm walking on eggshells with everyone. One joke they didn't find funny, one comment they don't agree with - and bam. Friendship over. I've been puzzled but maybe you're onto something.
@Theholisticpsyc I had an added plot twist. Bio father left early. Step father ignored me to the point he didn't even react when I said hello. But played with his nephew. Then when I moved out at age 16 he said, sorry for how I treated you. So he knew all those years, just didn't care to change.
@fdigitalis@bluewmist You need to leave the door open between washing with a front loader, otherwise it starts to smell. I've had nothing but front loaders and they never smell. They need less washing powder too, and do wash better than a top loader, but you need to treat them differently.
@anactualwalnut Same here. I'm not a morning person. I like to sleep for as long as I can. I get up 5 min before work starts. My "commute" is from the bedroom to another spare bedroom, I turn a switch on for coffee on the way. Thankfully it's another half hour before our phone line opens.
@omgsidewalks So true. Adopted from the SPCA as Meg which turned into Megmeg - Meggles - Megglespeggles - Weasel - Weasy - Waheasel - Sharneasel - Wheel - Wheelybin - Wool - Woolnugget - Woolbear - Weaselchild... and she listens to all of them. ๐
@Nithya_Shrii Yes. Turned 50, don't feel old as such but the knee isn't happy and the perimenopause starts. Still, far away from retirement right? Then saw a random palm reading video that showed your lifeline - mine's rather short, now wondering what if I died at 65?! Bit of an eye opener.
@TheKnocker5 Should do - usually located by the exit, but it really depends on what people have returned. There's also used items from show rooms. When I was there they even used to have a "happy hour" if it got too full, another 50% off. Sometimes you find real bargains.
@KindderBerge Alle Polizisten die ich kenne (es sind nur mรคnnliche), verhalten sich seltsam. Entweder benehmen sie sich in der Freizeit als sein wir auf Streife (alles wird gescannt auf Gefahr), und viele haben den "erzรคhl mir nicht was ich tun soll" Komplex. Bemerkst du das auch bei Kollegen?
@recovery_your I have not had many happy events in my life. But not once thought about killing myself. I thought "I can't do this anymore" but the answer was always, just keep going. Why should I die, because other people are mean? I'm sad & curious why some people feel so different about it.
@Gus_FringCartel I've heard you should get people to play Tetris after a traumatic event, as soon as possible, apparently it helps with processing it. Please pass this on if you can.
Personally, I believe NZ's "She'll be right" attitude has something to do with people not seeking help. ๐๐
I grew up being told โthe older you get, the more conservative you become.โ
Iโm finding that the older I get, the more I just want our society to be more tolerant, charitable, kind, peaceable, and ensure that everyone has what they need to survive and thrive.
@oku_yungx You were born because some lady gave birth to you, wanted/unwanted - you get no choice. You make the best out of your life with the resources available to you. Don't be jealous of others, try to be happy with your lot. The purpose therefore is to make the best of it for yourself.
@o_bel_ Masking is just as normal as putting on my seatbelt now - I don't mind and I rarely get comments. I do however chuckle at people who clearly "are scared to get my illness" when they see me and suddenly recoil. So you're worried I could infect you, when I'm the one wearing a mask.
