“no job is worth your physical & mental health” i hauve. Bills.

i love when “just quit!” is thrown out as a suggestion. like damn thank you i’ve never thought of that before ever. in my life. There are these things called groceries and doctor visits

Capitalism is a hostage situation, and we are all the hostages.

wait where do I get one of these jobs that doesn't affect my physical and mental health? cause they all do

I think you need to be well rested to find one

listen this vintage meme is high quality and i will hear nothing said against it

20 years. I am not happy about this.

I’m delighted at the bucket reappearing but dismayed at the passage of time

one of my favorite tidbits about speedrunning that comes up every time the games done quick marathons come around is how Wind Waker speedruns are about five hours long because of the giant wall in Hyrule that actually forces the runner to play the game because they’ve been throwing shit at this wall for over a decade and still can’t figure out a way past it. the wall in hyrule is entirely unglitchable and the only way past it is to play the game properly. the speedrun would be like one hour if they could get past this wall but nope, it’s five hours. fuck the wall.

This is the kind of information I want on my dash

Cant believe the only way to beat The wall™ is to stop it from ever existing in the first place

The line “seventy invisible grappling hooks” killed me

look im just saying that capitalists invented the idea of "lazy proletariat who fakes disability so they dont have to work anymore". Not only to make able bodied people turn their backs on their own class, but also make YOU question and downplay your own disability. And yes, you will inevitably find out you have one if you haven't already, most people will find out as they get older. Its in your best interest to start radically accepting that all disability is disabling. If not for the good of society, then do it so you dont hurt yourself by working through your pain.

my parents visited today and their latest item of ‘what people you knew in school are up to lately’ gossip was about the absolutely BONKERS thing they’re trying to talk their friend out of doing to her daughter. I’m still in shock tbh

Their friend is helping her daughter’s boyfriend’s mom to throw a 200-guest surprise engagement party for her daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend. The daughter and the bf are not engaged. Neither of them have even discussed planning to get engaged with their respective mothers. The moms are going to surprise the bf with his late grandmother’s ring at the party and tell him it’s time to propose to his gf. In front of 200 friends and family members. Just an absolute nightmare scenario.

Oh the kicker is that the pretense they’re inviting people under is that it’s a surprise “congrats on passing the bar” party for the bf. A thing he is currently stressing about having to take for the second time and may not pass. So it may turn into a 200-person surprise “sorry you failed to pass the bar for the second time, here’s your grandma’s ring, go propose anyway” party, which is a near-incomprehensible level of public humiliation.

Bf’s mom, whose brainchild this whole thing was, has already rented out an entire waterfront restaurant for the party. In Newport. This is what “more money than sense” looks like in practice.

Since this blew up overnight and people are asking, I managed to track the daughter down on linkedin today (the only social media I could find that we both have, lol) and message her. So she has been warned, and hopefully doesn't take the message poorly.

chronic pain diagnoses are all like yeah we don't know what this is or why it happens. we also don't know how to treat it. good luck out there soldier

you got symptoms syndrome. yeah it’s permanent. what is it? like… what, is it? well it’s a thing where this set of symptoms usually comes in a variety twelve-pack, what do you want. symptoms syndrome. don’t overuse the ibuprofen

you should probably also get checked out for Overlapping Symptoms Syndrome, they often come as a two-for-one kinda deal. what can we do if you've got that too? well we can tell your to exercise. it'll probably make some of the symptoms better but others worse. yeah, worse. it's all we've got so take it or leave it.
