  • I dunno boss each time I've noticed it the summary seems decent enough.

  • Yeah, naming it after people would bring about topics like "when the hell is Dave leaving? It's way too hot and been here much too long."

  • I’m on some total “different wavelength” from everycritter else and will clearly never be understood and when anyone tries to help or connect with me at all they get most everything wrong, sometimes insistently so.

    While it may take a long while of searching, I can say that there is someone out there with your wavelength. The ONLY reason I say this is because my sister, after 30+ years of searching for someone who could give her what she needed in a relationship finally found someone who was not only willing, but enthusiastic to be a part of her life in a big way. They are engaged and plan to be wed around this October.

    She didn't go hunting on dating apps or social media.. She did what she always did. Played games that have a strong social element, and wasn't afraid to chat about herself directly, her issues, her wants, all of it. I used to call her the impossible girl because of how hopeful she remained after all that time. Most other people I know in that situation would feel hopeless but she kept it up and kept at it.

    That being said, I don't know what's right for you and yours, and I hope you're able to find some solace in your situation.

  • I literally said I cannot force her to. I just made it an available option. Which she has thankfully taken. I'm hoping it will be enough to bring her back from the edge she has been on for the past month.

    I know another schizophrenic from work, and while it doesn't affect him in exactly the same way it affects my wife, there are similarities. Much with anything person related, each one is different, if even just a bit. What's severe for her might be minor to others, and what's minor to her might be severe for others. In my wifes case, she starts this very slow spiral downwards as the voices increase in intensity, and beyond the paranoia stage for her is a complete cognitive collapse. We've been through that before and she was 302'd as a result.

    For my one coworker, the worst he seemed to get after being off his meds for 6ish months was just a loss in focus on work, but he was allllllll about exploring abandoned houses looking for antiques and sorting through his number of storage units to catalog and auction/sell his found trove. Still very functional, mind seemed all together.

  • Stressed the hell out. Mental illness issues ahead. If that is a problem for your mental state, please don't read further.

    My wife is schizophrenic. She has been off her meds of her own volition for at least 6 months. The voices that manifest as part of her condition are in full force now and part of that was her thinking that no one needs to use money for credit cards anymore.

    I've spoken with her doctor, he has agreed to get her an emergency supply of the medication she was taking before.. However she's currently in a paranoid state of mind and fully believes she's completely functional. She wants to divorce me for taking away the credit card that's 'totally free' and at this point even though she clearly isn't right in the head, she's not wrong enough to be forced into a facility to help.

    The main problem is that she will likely not accept medication from me, I cannot force anything, and I can't in good conscience just leave. So either she breaks more and proper intervention can begin, or she somehow cuts through the fog, voices, and her own concept of being 'special' to start taking the medication again.

    I'm stressed because while she cannot have me removed from the house by police order for anything I've actually done, there's nothing stopping her from fabricating a story that might land me in a world of trouble.

    While her mind isnt right, it's not completely wrong either. She's still very intelligent and can connect some dots. It's just sometimes those dots go way off course.

  • So this is why I had a DIY hair growth 'recipe' in my feed. Just rub sugar on your head! It's so simple!

    It's nice to see the study that actually led to that mess.

  • So the minutes long preload of shaders in dragons dogma 2 was just a me thing? I have been meaning to update.

  • This remind me of those random flash... Let's call them creations as they are neither games or animations specifically.

    It starts with 1 A and a wait time of thirty seconds, each time you press the big X, it adds an 'A', and increasingly multiplies the time. You end up with the AAAAAAAAAAAAA Game, and are waiting for hours.

    Does it do anything? No. It is vaguely humorous? Kinda?

  • So there are these things.. called "bug repellents" which do the trick nicely.

  • It is. And as the joke goes, it's also quite chilly there at the moment as well.

    I know a bunch of people that are not geographically minded who think that the entirety of central and south america are nothing but tropical jungles and always hot.

  • When the corruption is this comically obvious, it's almost hard to believe. I mean.. gold bars, really?

    Anyways, good riddance and gosh I hope the plethora of others who aren't being as cartoon villainy about it would also receive trials, convictions, and swift exits, but I know that's a pipe dream.

  • It's not wrong though..

  • You are a multimillionaire that has plenty of options on leaving if things get rough, but in the interim you can look forward to tax breaks and more lax controls/protections over whatever industry you may be involved in.

    As for the rest of them, he's flying the right colored flag and that's about it.

  • Currency in path of exile is a collection of items which can be use on gear and weapons, but also used with in game traders to barter goods. This currency enchange is an automated way to convert say, an item which reconfigures the linked slots on a piece of armor into one which rerolls the modifiers.

  • I'm guessing at face value title wise it isnt very clear to someone who doesn't play what a currency exchange would be.

  • Dogs. They're the one animal I can actively get close to daily which depending on upbringing can either be very loving and sweet, or absolutely territorial monsters.

    When I was in high school there was one of those dogs, he'd bark lightly, or his front paws on the picket fence and wag his tail extra hard, which are normally signs of wanting to be pet, except if you got within petting range he'd go for a bite.

    Cat's at least get away from you if they don't want attention. I've learned more about dog body laungauge since high school, but I've also been bitten since then on just a random walk by (not going for a pet) just as the owner was saying it didn't bite. It did.

    Though I suppose terrified it's a bit much. Wary is more like it.

  • Was supremely broke. Lived off the damned things long enough that I completely lost taste sensitivity from the salt content in the packets. Finally one day just said screw it, I can't taste em anyways and I want some crunch.

  • After many years of suffering she's finally on a upward trend. Engaged and planning for the future for the first time in at least a decade.

  • The game guys were last spotted on bean bags in the arcade room, did they go to get snacks? Are they snack guys now? This is horrible!
