I've let non-verbal pets (my snake, for one) die because I knew I needed to feed them, but my task paralysis prevented me from doing so when I thought of it and my lack of time management meant they could always go one more day.

Man, 2020 sucked major ass. I'm sorry Juno! You deserved better than me.

It is exhausting to live like this. Now, I just have passive SI and am waiting to find out what cancer or terminal disease I have that will claim my life while I slowly eat and sit myself to an early grave.

Never worked food prep but I've worked at a handful of help desks in IT. I always felt most comfortable and confident in my abilities when helping to identify and solve "house burning" situations. Is not that I couldn't lead others in a managerial role, it's that I know I'd be life you, in the thick of it, and also then have the stress of managing people and the stress of all that!

Psh, that's for future me to deal with!

What are "benzos"? At first I thought that was Bezos.

If you figure out the motivation thing, give me buzz. For winding down, I found that doing mindless sorting tasks is good for relaxing. For instance, I build LEGO things, my son plays with them and takes them apart eventually, and I sort them back out. One time, I went through my son's old clothes and made a list of what was in each box. I felt so relaxed after the clothes logging! It was a nice little Saturday!

We are wired differently. "Winding down" doesn't look the same for us. It's just hard to find the right task to let our brains relax.

I know. Same. And the music. It's so good!! Such an intense movie, but so human. The emotion really comes at you from all angles!

Yeah, I saw it all on EWU's channel. Some quality shit on that channel. Though by their logic, everything I do normally in my day-to-day is a red flag!

Kinda hard to cum without an erection, though, right?

There was a show, Human Giant I think it was called, which was like skit comedy. Aziz Ansari (spelling?) was in it. In the skit, he was talking about rollerblading and I lost it when, with a straight face, he said, "the hardest thing about rollerblading is telling your parents' you're gay."

I don't run my own instance, but one concern I see grappled with by instances, at some time in their existence, is how to handle image storage and embedding. I won't pretend to know the options or have opinions on which to use or how to resolve the larger issues, but I see that as a large hurdle to mainstream, in addition to the points referenced by OP.

In use Voyager for my daily driver here on this account and Jerboa for my NSFW account.

I love Voyager for the "hide read posts" and the some of the sitting and layout stuff. I like Jerboa for the erections!

  • The Fountain
  • Schindler's List
  • Idiocracy
  • This is SpinalTap
  • Saving Private Ryan
  • Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Probably missing some, but these are the ones I can remember right now. I think Schindler's List should be required viewing by everyone before they graduate high school. I remember when they used to air it on regular TV, unedited and uncensored, commercial free. I feel we were nicer and more willing to avoid wars back then.

I ain't ashamed to say it, I cry every damn time I watch it.
