You all know about my famous refusal to own a cellphone of any kind, even a brick, but did you also know that I don’t use any streaming services whatsoever? No Hulu, no Netflix, no Disney+, nothing. I also don’t watch any television dramatic series at all. Never seen an episode of GoT, Stranger Things, Yellowstone, His Dark Materials, etc. None of it. I also haven’t seen any superhero movies since Wonder Woman in 2017. So when everyone online likes to reference memes related to stuff like that, I don’t know what the hell they’re talking about.

Fuckers.

Hey, I like how you said “actual” jobs, though. The implication there sounds like you know how to work, just struggle finding and holding down something in a corporation, business, etc. I’m the same way. I can bust my ass and get a lot of great work done doing an odd job here or there for someone, helping them move, put something together, or disassemble furniture, etc. so at least there’s that.
 
I think what I’m gonna do now, though, is try a 180 on my YouTube channel. I’m gonna research stuff, ramp up production, and put my best foot forward doing videos about science and data. Maybe we don’t need “actual” jobs if we can make our own success.

@OliverHancock  
Hmm, sounds somewhat familiar. When it comes to actual jobs, I’m clueless.

I’m so stuck not having a job, not knowing how to get one, being so stressed out I want to kill myself over it, not having a future, not living up to my potential. God fucking damnit

Don’t believe the hype: Only 27% of Google’s operations are carbon neutral.

Young rebellions or young suicidal are also pretty common in the east, but the habit of being humble and communicative and being lucky can save the ass there, plus knowing when to speak out loud, even more carefully.

Oh, I see. It sounds like it’s one of those things that’s a good thing in theory, but in practice, they take it too far and use it to put extra burden on the younger workforce.

@OliverHancock  
Most parts, only some allows, but more than 95% (how I feel right now) is restricted, Japan is also no exception sadly.
 
The respect elder policy can go too far in many parts of Asian cultures, and it is still polluting the economic.

@Anonymous #5431  
Wow I didn’t know that. Do you mean that they don’t allow people to ask questions?

Asian work cultures is oppressive when it comes to age and position, and more importantly, question asking.
 
One quite useless trade-off, you can be less punctual there.

Facebook memes and the news did to our parents and grandparents what they thought video games would do to us.

Youtube just had to go down today didn’t it?

Even though I like my job, it really does put strain on me and my legs

Okay, hold on, I don’t agree with what you just said, but I concur with the… frustration… and I understand where you’re coming from now. Just… look I messed up by bringing it up in here.. I didn’t mean to… maybe I did… I don’t know… I don’t understand myself a lot of the time… but please just understand where I’m coming from too. I’m in a place of fear and anxiety which sounds like what you were in too judging by what you said there, so maybe we can both just try to cool down with it and… ya know, just nudge me man. (or whichever pronouns you prefer. I don’t mean “man” like man, I just mean like human you know what I’m saying?) But like, I mean I understand. Just, idk, we should nudge each other, not judge each other. Which is kinda what I gather you want me to do anyway. I don’t mean to, but… I messed up. dang I’m a nutcase. I just.. Idk what I’m doing. Just trying to survive and keep myself from cutting or something… I don’t want to be locked up. I’ve been locked up too much. I never hurt a fly… please, I just… I don’t know. Sorry, you didn’t do anything wrong. Just please don’t hurt me

Thank god at least I don’t really drink anymore. I mean maybe a single shot with eggnog for the holidays on Friday nights during the holiday season or a glass of wine with my girlfriend at the park on special occasions, but man I used to really drink. I didn’t think I had a problem. I mean, like, when you drink a lot you always have those friends who drink just as much or even more, so you’re like, “Oh well see he’s drinking more so as long as I don’t drink as much as he or she does I’m fine.” And then my mom died and I just like, I couldn’t do it anymore. I don’t even like being around it anymore. Honestly maybe I never did… no, I think I did, but I… I don’t know man it turns you into a different person if you don’t play your cards right. You gotta temper it you know?

I tried to jump off a bridge 2 weeks ago… Took all my clothes off and threw them down into the cold Missouri river, climbed up over the railing and it felt so freeing. Like it could all just be over and I could be at peace… I couldn’t do that to my girlfriend though… she doesn’t deserve that… I don’t… I don’t deserve that either. I’m a human being. I’m a human being. I don’t deserve that. I don’t deserve that. I have to make myself believe I don’t deserve that… :(

I know this is supposed to be a positive place. I don’t know where to go sometimes and I get wrapped up. I’m desperate sometimes to just try and keep myself stable and sometimes the only way I know how is to rant out my thoughts… I need to find a better place to do that when it comes to politics… I just- I don’t even realize I’m doing it sometimes. Again, I’m not making excuses. I need to do better… It’s just, like I said I’m pretty unstable a lot of the time and I try to do a lot of hobbies and positive things for myself and my family and my community when I can but sometimes I just, uh, run out of energy? I guess? That’s not the right way to put it but I don’t know exactly what is… I think there’s just only so much cooking and errand running and cleaning and helping a dude/dudette can do sometimes before they just start to crack… and then I get really lonely and I don’t know where to go and so I try getting into it online. I don’t do well with social media though… this is the only place I really have managed to stay on at all anymore… Again, you’re right, it’s my cross to bear, I shouldn’t, ummm, you know… sorry.

@LightningBolt  
What about Nightweaver? And Magpul didn’t do anything wrong, what is he supposed to do, let me be the only one with a political opinion? I get it’s against the rules, but you’re right, it’s my fault this time. I fucked up, but it’s not like Magpul and I are the only ones doing it.
 
Sigh I mean, you’re right… I just… I don’t know… I’m a nutcase who hasn’t kept it under control… I’m sorry… Just… shit gets me heated… I know, I know. I just don’t know where to go sometimes… or I get lost and I… forget where I am… I’m not well in the head… I’m not making excuses, I just… I try to keep away and off of it for awhile and then it’s like I… I don’t know. The world is a scary place these days and I’m not a perfectly sane person. I mean I wouldn’t hurt a fly, but… I’ll just shut up now… :(

@OliverHancock  
How many times have we told you to stop bringing politics into here so much?

@MagpulDynamicPie
 
@OliverHancock  
I actually pity you two. It’s sad that you can’t accept that a far more decent and honest human being is going to lead America, and instead retreat into your doom-saying conspiracies. I’m done speaking with you two from now on. There is no longer any point.

@MagpulDynamicPie  
Actually, it just got a whole lot better. And that’s all I need to say.

Good Lord this year can literally not get any worse.

I just received news that my grandmother on my mom’s side who was in Taiwan just passed…. from a gangrene on her foot.  
Just a few months ago my other grandmother passed this year.
 
Damn man… she’s seen a lot. Even lived through Japanese occupation in Taiwan during er youth in WW2.

For a second i thought that shower was spewing confetti.
