How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

Feeling cheesed off at the moment, had an appointment with my physician who has confirmed I have Autism. It's mild Autism but what I can't get around my head is that it's taken 34 years for a diagnosis.
 
Modern Web Design can kiss the darkest part of my ass!
At work, got to wait 5 minutes for the build to finish, decide to spend that time to check when my new gym does spin classes.
Load up the site, greeted by a "Register now for 7 days free membership" poopup!
Close it and go to the Find Club section to find my gym, start typing in the name of the mall where it's located, Popup, "Turn on location finder for better support!"
Close it, find my gym, select it, same popup "Turn on location finder for better support!"
Close it, finally on right gym's page, click classes, "Register now for 7 days free membership."
Close popup, "Log In Now!"
Realize I can't check classes on club page, need to check "class schedule" tab
Click class schedule, "Register now for 7 days free membership!"
Select Club drop down list, "Turn on location finder for better support!"
Select Spin Class, "Hire A Personal Trainer."
Finally got it, starts at 18:30.
Close site and realize that the build was done 2 minutes ago.
Wasted 7 minutes of my life just to get basic info.
 
Got baptized recently. Both my family and friends came to watch, so I was happy about that.

It feels like the further I go into Christianity, the more and more things start to make sense and the less and less I feel the need to worry about the worldly things that I used to cling onto so tightly. There's not as much bitterness and hatred in me as there once was. I truly feel that this sort of lifestyle is right for me.

"Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." Romans 12:2.

I know this sounds crazy to a lot of people on here, but I am convinced that this is the truth. No matter what depraved shit the powers that be do to you, they cannot destroy your spirit if you don't let them.

God bless, and stay strong, Josh. You are doing far more than anyone could ask of you.
 
As dumb as it sounds I was kinda sad that I thought this site was gone for good but i see you can't stop Mr. Moon from making one last holdout for people to really say what they want, in minecraft of course. You guys are the best shitposters I've ever seen online.
 
Me and most of my friends can't find jobs after graduating college. We're all stem majors too, it's pretty depressing. The recent gayops is also sad to see. People would prefer seeing the internet become a smaller, invasive, hollow shell of itself. I can't help but feel like things will just get worse.

I feel you. I had a pretty alright job for a while, 60 hour work weeks but it paid well and you could space out. Worked with some cool people but a bunch of guys left for other jobs and I got canned after a new supervisor was brought on. Had half-a-dozen phone interviews with people and it seems like they are interested, feel like I interview well, then I never get anything back.. Looking for a job is a slog.
 
My old office job is sending me job offers again out of the blue. The bastards literally sent me two emails begging for my ass to come back in their clutches and they've clearly been desperate. Pretty much everyone agrees they're a bunch of rats though so I'm not bothering. I've been spending the past month indulging and generally getting my strength back. I'm surprised at how many good habits I've retained from before my months long reclusion and dismayed at how quickly money actually likes to seep away. So far, I'm encouraged and soon enough I'll be able to simply enact the financial and homemaking plans from this year into the next.
Too bad the year started the way it did. That was an avalanche of mistakes I made on who to trust, sometimes blindingly so, and it's apparent how naive I've been in my 20s. I wish I had more of this life experience when I was younger but teenage me was anxious and too much of a reject to gain it then. This world can only show you it's lessons as you open up and learn for yourself. As for now, im grateful I had as much of a cushion as I did for many of my falls. I'll focus on fine tuning the relationships that help me and dealing with ending the year on an even level to how it started. It's time to earn my privilege.

It's embarrassing because I've never let myself get attached to anything online, it's too out of your control and you're dealing with strangers, but I, a grown man old enough to have his own children, was fairly upset when I thought the site was gone.

It's part of why I've been a bit critical of the sort of Keffals hysteria for a while, because at this point the trendy/political/gender critical nature of the site (while I understand it) almost takes a back seat to the more wide-spanning aspect of simply having a place online where people can feel like they're among real people. There isn't some code you have to know, you just type what you're feeling and try to use basic judgement.
And hell, I didn't care about image editing programs before dealing with KF, I didn't know how to archive or download/edit video, and part of the reason I've gotten used to actually recording/sharing audio is because of the guitar and bass thread since normally there's no reason to. It's all a little dumb.

I saw @NoReturn say in the ladykiwi section of the site (for artifact reasons I can't post in the salon so I'll say it here) about how the whole thing actually makes you more able to help others irl and makes you willing to be more transparent with people, and I couldn't agree more.

There are so many weirdos who you'd never have had experience with IRL featured on the site, and that's great.
But beyond that, kind of just being reminded that there are other real people out there makes you realize how fucking absurd it is how scared people are of each other. I've always believed in emotional honesty, but it's a little bit different when you're typing completely depersonalized words to a group of multinational, multicultural individuals, gays, trannies, furries, FEMOIDS, old, young, etc.

If that group of people can manage to converse, then you can manage to talk to the motherfucking people outside your front door.
I'd thank Josh explicitly, but he fucking knows, he isn't stupid. There no need to patronize him man to man and make this even gayer.

I got diagnosed with mild autism as well a few weeks ago and wondered why it took long too, Apparently it's because mild Autism is rather easy to see as another issue or just as a teen or child doing a teen or child thing. Most people don't get their mild autism diagnosed until they're a teen in fact.
 
After a long day I'm glad to come home to find the site is still working. Not trying to sound too gay, but the recent events made me appreciate how fragile the existence of this site really is. That's why I treat every day like it's the last day the site's going to be up.

Coming home to find the site still up is a comfort like no other. Like returning to sleeping in your own bed after being out on a trip for a while.
 
Got officially accepted into the school I was aiming for. Will have earned my first qualification in six months. I am obviously going to keep studying beyond that since the first level is pretty low paying, but it'll be nice to have an actual qualification.

Destroyed a PC by puking vodka all over it. I contracted a stomach bug at the same time I was drinking heavily, so it was pretty violent. Not my finest hour.
 
I have to get major surgery that will require me to not work for a month and a half next month. Need to call the doctor tomorrow to finish some unpaid leave paperwork. I am just under the amount of hours worked to qualify for FMLA.
