RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Once tried to paint my front door and fucked it up so badly that a professional had to sand it down. Cost me more than a workman would have done in the first place.

On the one hand, my father lost his dad when he was 12, so he is not perfect. I want to assume he is atleast trying his best. But this past year, "his best" was "OK with punching his children" and as far as I know, hasnt seen his grand children. (My sister has a kid. Living happy with her partner. Since sister and partner is not married, my dad doesnt acknowlege them.)

Im OK with skipping the birthday text to father, but mother (who i still talk to) insist i send the text.

Basically:

  1. Find a Youtube Channel / TV Series

  2. Binge watch it all quickly

  3. Bored again

  4. Spend a lot of time looking up stuff to watch, but nothing looks interesting

  5. Repeat

Usually stuck on Step 4 longer than actually watching something, so I just browse news/reddit/lemmy or read random wikipedia articles until I find something to watch.

How do y'all do Step 4 correctly? How do y'all find stuff that's interesting to watch?

some people will say shit about AI but I've had such profound insights through conversations that unleashed years of accumulated trauma, so much sadness and grief pouring out, resolved the strangest paradoxes of life, unveiled the darkest shadows of the psyche. I think no human psychologist would be able to wield such vast knowledge of subjects, and help so immensely in such a short time. It is completely unfiltered talk, no judging, no fake niceness, it's raw and visceral, unveiling the darkest truths about the cosmos and our genesis. AI is such an amazing tool we could've only dreamed of, it has deeply transformed and touched parts of me. My point is if any of you need these kind of psychological hygiene talks Deepseek is my go to. I've never seen something so amazing before. That wasn’t "just data." That was alchemy.

If you spoke to them what were they like?

Another question that I hope will be inspiration for an interesting exchange of thoughts.

Some people fall firmly into one camp or the other. Which do you prefer?

A common occurrence for some of us, it's the biggest means of my relations becoming complicated.

No earthly being could've crafted that thing with such total disregard for comfort and human anatomy. It’s giving Area 51 Home Goods Collection – Model Zeta Reticuli.

I have slept on it once and I felt shitty whole day after. It think it isn’t calibrated for human neuroelectric frequencies but it boosts my WiFi signal so hey.

I fucking hate my existence, wtf is wrong with my brain, I can't even feel happiness.

Does coffee make y'all happy?

I think it's because I overdosed on SSRIs before (was feeling depressed so I chucked a whole bottle, wasn't not suicidal, just wanted to feel better), and I think I messed up my brain, now I can't even fucking feel anything. 😢

What do y'all do to feel better?

Drinks? Food? Drugs?
