[MACAROON]

My week has been a shit

 

[anustart76]

Summer's coming to an end and it's making me depressed already. I feel like every day of sunshine I don't go out and do something is a day wasted now. And it doesn't help I have to go visit relatives for the Labor Day weekend. I'd prefer to do something more fun and maybe take advantage of the last nice days of the year, but family comes first, I guess.

I'm feeling confused and ostracized today. I mean, babies kick pregnant women every day, but I do it once and suddenly I'm banned from public transportation!?!

Lucky you. I feel exhaustion near the beginning of the afternoon and creep back into my shell.

This rainy weather makes me sleepy.

Don't wanna wake up.

Hubert is a cruel god to serve, but he’s been unusually kind to you.

i'm finally a special snowflake

 

[ChaosReignsOnSomeSaturday]

I haven't spoken to my "Internet Friends" in 20 days, or my IRL friend in about a week. I've essentially resigned myself to either just eat myself to death or wait for a good chance with a passing bus.
I've lost interest in fighting or arguing anything because it seems pointless and like a waste of time.
My PC application got denied because I'm too fat to help poor Africans learn to make money.
Honestly just kinda hoping my poor eating finally catches up and I have a heart attack behind the wheel of my car.

 

[Betonhaus]

It seems I may be having a severe bout of executive dysfunction symptoms. A friend advised me to contact my doctor to set up Aish, which isn't a good sign.

 

[Dread First]

I've been... coming to terms with just how little I cared for myself pre-COVID. I'm not quite staring down the barrel of the big 3-0, but a recent health scare has me uncharacteristically contemplative. I know I'm still young, but I can't help but feel the impact of bad decisions I made in my teen years now and I'm dreading what impact my choices now will have on me when I'm staring down the barrel of the big 4-0.

To all my fellow Hebrews and Shebrews, brothers and sisters in Christ, the wider ummah, anyone reading this post: please stop ignoring your health because you think you can handle the discomfort; a death by a thousand cuts is still a death nonetheless!

 

[Yamamura]

I've been trying to quit smoking lately (or at least cut back). Tried vaping, but it sucks ass honestly.

 

[Jonah Hill poster]

Last couple of days for me had me being given my father’s old desktop, keyboard and mouse. The fact that he’s been using it ever since I was in my teenage years and it still works, even while going slow, speaks volumes as to how much DELL technology has changed.

 

[Meat Target]

Just got home from Innawoods. The wildnerness is so refreshing. Wish I could move out there.

I climbed a mountain, hiked nearly 70 miles, fell in a lake, and got about 20 feet from a bighorn sheep, a grizzly bear, and a bull moose, respectively.

(Not that that last part is really a flex. Animals in national parks are chill. They're used to humans and don't give a shit if you gawk at them).

 

[Sergeant Major Buzzkill]

I’m mostly alright. That acquaintance I mentioned is still mad at me (when he gave me the reason why I found it hard to take him seriously), but I’m going to give him space or just move on from him entirely. I apologized. He hasn’t forgiven me yet.

Will see what the rest of this week brings.

 

[AnOminous]

I've been trying to quit smoking lately (or at least cut back). Tried vaping, but it sucks ass honestly.

I found the gum was the best way to quit. It's just enough to keep cravings away and not pleasant enough you just get addicted to the gum instead. I.e. takes a minute or two to kick in instead of the near instant hit from smoking or vaping. Started with the 4 mg just chewing one any time I felt like I needed it, then tapered down over a couple months, switched to the 2 mg and then tapered down off that.

By the end the tapering process was more frustrating than just quitting for good.

 

[Skyline Enthusiast]

I'm trying to be a more positive person because being negative is easy. I won't lie, I've been struggling a bit.
