that’s what i was thinkin… surely single-cell eukaryote (fungi) is earlier than complex eukaryote (shark)?

found this while browsing yesterday… not exactly what you are looking for, but maybe get you on the right track.
i have recently become very aware of and disgusted by the the amount of plastic waste i make.
every single goddammed thing is covered in it. it’s obscene and i am ashamed.
i second this request. please
i spend a lot of time alone and so my mind wandering out unattended can be a real problem. years ago (45 now), i finally traced back to the single moments in my life that caused my demise and since then my brain LOVES to torture me repeatedly with the pain and betrayal and shame and anger of those moments.
1.5 years ago i found something that helps. i made “elevator music” for my mind.
i have always had a bit of a problem getting songs stuck in my head. so i found one that i like but not love (not a favorite song) that i have known for forever, and put the chorus and bridge on permanent replay.
the tune and lyrics are available as a reflex, last for about a minute before the loopback, it is calming and centering and allows me to manually wrest control away from thought processes that are harming me but seem to be happening automatically.
it may be that this is too specific of a solution, but it aids my sanity. good luck to you.
(the song is: “Spinning the Wheel” by George Michael)
the turn tables
when was the last time you paid your taxes?.. or were they auto-deducted from your paycheck before you even had a chance to count it?
“you’re free to move to a place…” hahaha! haaahahaha! WHAT? you are not a serious person.
it is really bugging me that you are getting heavily downvoted for this. it’s not like you are actively proselytizing here. i am sorry people are so shitty.
i think belief in (some type of) god is probably pretty healthy. unfortunately, my life experience has led me to a failure to believe in anything at all.
anyways… you do you. be well.
oh yes, i see now…
… YOU are part of the elect few who TRULY understand. of course!
shut it ALL down.
Bernie should use that gavel on Mullin’s head. shut that fucker up.
Watching their partner have sex with someone else sometimes sparked what they called “classic little jealousy issues,” which Adams said they resolved with “more communication, more growing up.” The money was just too good. And over time, they adopted a self-affirming ideology that framed everything as just business.
i swear this is the exact plot of “Boogie Nights”. i wish these young entrepreneurs all the best, but the movie didn’t exactly have a happy ending.
it’s so so sooooo difficult to take this language seriously. because EVERY election is phrased with this sky-is-falling rhetoric. i am 45 and for as long as i have been a voter, this-next-one is the-big-one.
nevertheless, i do actually think that this time bad things really will happen.
also, i want to get it out there that even though this guardian piece downplays “biden is old”, i cannot stress enough that i will unconditionally NOT vote for biden. so these fuckers better put up a reasonable candidate very quickly.
i would jump at the chance to have electro-shock. the only way into a better life (for me, BPD) would be to change personality altogether. i wouldn’t hesitate at all.
that’s honest.
i miss reddit, too. been 3.5 months since leaving and i used to spend 12 hours or more at a time scrolling and reading. it was like a good friend or partner.
but i really NEVER posted there. and i do here, sometimes.
i got to spend 30 minutes in the doctors waiting room last week and they had a pop playlist running. i rarely listen to (any) music these days and spend my time in public with earplugs jammed in my ears.
the music coming from those speakers was ungodly distracting, aggressive, poorly constructed and LOUD. i brought it up to my family and they told me i sound like an old man (45).
i don’t think it’s just my age.
i am really glad you took the time to put all of that into words. i, a queer person, agree completely.
yes, you are obviously not the one in this thread that is obsessed with trump.
just read the thread! obviously not obsessed!
my favorite game since childhood. forever and ever, amen.
but it’s only 4 months away! this is who the people chose!
