The ones in the movies exist irl. In the same way youve never seen the tube ones, I’ve never seen them in a pouch until now

Richard Nixon advocated for UBI but that doesn’t negate every horrible thing he did. What’s the point of saying Hitler said reasonable things other than thinly veiled fascist apologia?

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

This is heartbreaking news but I can’t get over the “pro-democracy law maker Nathan Law”

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Tour as in tu- er or tore? I’ve heard it pronounced both ways here in the states

Like you wouldn’t believe! Im jealous of her ability to pass out in the most uncomfortable positions

I’ve done this in my ambulance and nearly ate the steering wheel. All that weight DOES NOT like coming to a sudden stop

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

I really like startpage, but I’m pretty sure it’s just Google with some tweaks

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

What’s your point in bringing bud light up? I’m not trying to start shit, genuinely curious. What is it that we need to know? What does “never trust” mean in this context? I can’t make heads or tails of anything you wrote

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

The leader of an oppressive organized religion? Using slurs? Say it ain’t so!

That’s an unfortunately common occurrence when the police are brought in for crimes like this. Most sexual abuse is perpetrated by people who have a relationship with the victim, usually family. 1 in 5 women have been raped, a third of those women were raped between the ages of 11 and 17. 81% of women will experience some form of sexual harassment or assault in their lifetimes. Only 20-40% of rapes are reported to the police. Only about half of those result in arrest. 80% of the arrests are prosecuted. 58% of the prosecutions result in conviction. And 69% of the convicted offenders will serve time in jail/prison. So for every 100 rapists, about 3 of them will go to prison.

I feel that, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I won’t take the opportunity to shill any specific outlook or worldview. Just know that there are people out there who have made it their life’s mission to fix societal ills like these. While it may be tempting to condemn the entire human race, it’s not particularly productive in the long term. The things you’re thinking and feeling now can be turned into action down the road once you’ve had time to process them and deconstruct.

Ron DeSantis' new target in his 'war on woke'? Colors, apparently (www.msnbc.com)

As part of DeSantis’ “Freedom Summer” initiative, the state’s transportation secretary, Jared W. Perdue, announced earlier this month that bridges in the state will have no choice but to be illuminated in red, white and blue from Memorial Day through Labor Day....

And Juneteenth, and a day of remembrance for victims of gun violence

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Interchanges, plazas and malls

And crowded chain restaurants

More housing developments go up

Named after the things they replace

So welcome to Minnow Brook

And welcome to Shady Space

Well it all seems a little abrupt

No, I don’t like this change of pace

We don’t need more blobs of suburban “neighborhoods”. Urban centers should be renovating/repurposing vacant properties and infilling empty areas. It’s a matter of building more densely and not tearing down nature for the sake of private equity firms bottom lines

I thought kiwis were more tame than aussies

I struggle with depression and alexithymia. How do I write with emotion?

I have to write a paper about a place/time that I have an emotional attachment to or a place that has shaped my sense of self. I haven’t really felt much of an attachment to anything for most of my life. Even if I did, I wouldn’t even know how to begin describing the nature or cause of that attachment. I chose to write about...

BarrelAgedBoredom OP ,

Hey that’s a pretty good idea, thank you! That got the neurons firing a bit. As an aside, I was getting help for a bit but therapy is expensive. Im going to school so I can finally get a job that pays enough for me to get health insurance instead of paying out of pocket. Thanks again!

BarrelAgedBoredom OP ,

That’s a great idea! I’ve been so fixated on trying to follow the prompt, the thought of using one of my emotions wheels never occured to me lol. Thank you

BarrelAgedBoredom OP ,

I don’t think I’ll be able to cram enough reading in to learn how to feel emotions by Sunday night but I’ll try my best

BarrelAgedBoredom OP ,

I did have some success doing essentially what you said. My free writing was certainly a lot more colorful than the draft I produced. I had a hard time editing my free writing to fit the prompt, essentially stripping what little emotion there was out of it in order to make it flow. The ADHD also made it rough to stay on topic haha. I’d get really into what I was writing and then read it back and realize it was completely useless for the purposes of my essay

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Makes you a bit light headed and pleasantly dissociated. If you’ve ever done psychedelics it’s a bit like the come up. You get really loose and jovial for a minute.or two; it’s pretty common to spend it laughing your ass off. Then you come back to earth feeling relaxed. It’s (safely) synergistic with a lot of common party drugs.

I can only speak to its effects with mushrooms and acid. On a healthy dose of mushrooms (3.5 g or so) it’s akin to a DMT trip of you hit it at the peak. Fractals out the wazoo and you lose all sense of time. I thought I travelled to the future and came back with an unsettling sense of deja vu. 7/10.

The last time I did whipits was in combination with some nice dark web blotters. Dropped a 150 mic tab, watched 2001: a space odyssey and did whipits the whole time. The visuals were very different from mushrooms. Colors appeared out of nowhere, deep purples, greens and reds dripping off the walls and screens while you felt like your very essence was melting into a pool of narcotic bliss. Again, losing all sense of time until your soul suddenly reconstituted itself. 11/10

Did you read the article? She’s been in intensive care for her mental health for a decade. This wasn’t some spur of the moment decision. Its taken 10 years to get to this point. To state that mental illnesses are curable and non-progressive is pure ignorance and you would do yourself well to learn how poor the prognosis is for people with severe mental illness. There isn’t a cure. You never feel whole or normal. Medication is a shot in the dark most of the time. Therapy doesn’t help everybody. Some people are truly and completely untreatable, and she is one of those people

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Name a single curable mental illness.

I’ll help you out: there aren’t any. Some can be managed and worked around in day to day life. Some people may achieve a reasonable quality of life, but their illness will never totally disappear

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

This isn’t a problem with “my” definition of cure. I’m using the commonly understood definition. If someone is successfully managing their type 1 diabetes with insulin and a healthy diet we don’t say they’re cured. They still have diabetes. If they stopped taking their meds and ate a ton of carb heavy foods they’d wind up in the hospital in a matter of days.

Same goes with mental illness. If you stop taking your meds, going to therapy, etc. your mental state will decline again. They’re still mentally ill, they’re just managing it.

Perhaps some people have acute moments of distress to the point where it’s clinically significant and treatment helps them weather that moment. Eventually they may return to their baseline of not needing drugs or therapy. But given the context of this thread (a woman killing herself after a decade of unsuccessful treatment) I figured it was fair to assume chronic mental illness. Something to the tune of major depression, bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, etc.

The word cure isn’t a fluid term to me or most people. It’s something that connotes permentant relief of a person’s signs and symptoms of a given illness. Something that often isn’t the case for mental illness

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Meh, prudes ruined the fun. There ain’t nothing wrong with some titties

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

I will not stand for this anarchist erasure

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Yeah but it’s funnier with liberals because they get all persecution complex-y when people left of them give them shit, just like conservatives do when libs give them shit

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Anarchists are pretty active in their communities, with mutual aid and direct action being cornerstones of the ideology and whatnot. If you spent any time in activist spaces you’d know that

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

I think what you’re describing is less of an anarchism problem and more of a “people in general” problem. I’m an anarchist and I’d like to think I conduct myself pretty well for the most part, even in political discussions. I won’t say I haven’t been an ass online or in person before but that’s not due to my ideology. I’m just an ass sometimes. Same as everyone else. I will concede that we can be a bit insular at times and that’s certainly a weak spot for many anarchists

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

They’re putting chemicals in the water, making the frickin whales literate!

Replace the teal with purple and you got it

A 4 year old .ml account spewing mysoginy? That’s a new one

I like to jiggle my cats pouch when he walks near me. He isn’t nearly as entertained as I am

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

I legitimately do not get pocket. It’s just rebranded bookmarks

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

Well when you put it that way I’m suddenly convinced! I’m gonna go buy me a pocket to put my Firefox in right now!

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

He’s still relatively old as fuck. If you can collect social security you shouldn’t be running a country

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

I’m here to flame you for your lack of cable management

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

You can explain it to me. I’ll over confidently feign understanding for maximum frustration too!
