I basically assume every aspect of the work my friends do is insanely difficult and they have to put in effort convincing me certain parts are stupid easy that even a child could do it.

But that’s “bOtH sIdEs” thinking!!! Don’t you know even just saying that means you hate humanity?!?!?!

As an American I have no idea what this bizarre contraption is

Libs downvoting cause they don’t like when they get called out for being morons who do nothing other than support people that want a pre-Trump status quo.

I have MAGA family. My aunt was MAGA and died just a few hours into the new year this year. I felt nothing cause I cut pretty much all of them from my life. Only reason I know is cause my mom called to tell me.

The only train between my house and work is a cargo train and I don’t want to hitch a ride like a homeless dude trying to see the countryside (not to mention it takes over an hour to walk to anywhere near those tracks when it only takes 30 minutes to drive to work when traffic isn’t fucked).

Yet people get mad when you say both parties are working together.

This is why we need a variety of tactics and not just relying on peaceful options that ultimately achieve nothing.

I’m even crying while at work. Partly cause of my anxiety disorder giving me random panic attacks and partly just from how fucked living is.

I don’t know if I’d say creative storytelling is the only way to become better at writing with others just becoming repetitive. I’ve written about the films I’ve watched very frequently since 2021 and I feel the writing I do now is infinitely better than the drivel I started out doing. Still nowhere near what a professional who actually studied film for years and deeply understands the ins and outs of it could write, like something from Roger Ebert, but I like what I’ve put up at least within the last few months.

A little killing? Like the billionaires as a treat?

I tried a long time ago, but I’m not creative enough for fictional stories and get distracted when researching things I have a massive interest in. It’s why I’d prefer something like school (or documentaries but I can only find a few that interest me like American Animals, Aliens of the Deep, and National Gallery), but I got no money for that. Tried some free online teaching things and stopped once I went a few days without it due to a friend dying. If I’m not forced to do it like I would a structured environment then I give up pretty easy.

Nah he was just throwing his heart out to all the people he loves! Libs take screenshots so out of context!!

How do you practice getting better? My girl tells me she likes what I do, but I know I’m just fumbling around since we’re both inexperienced and I’m pretty sure she’s both being nice and embarrassed to talk about how I could improve. Anytime I’ve asked she just says I’m doing perfect which my porn addicted ass knows ain’t true.

I don’t trust myself with knives which is why they just stuck me in the cooler and gave me a hook to pull the carcusses with. Doesn’t help I used to work in a small grocery store and the meat guys there always messed with me on how close they’ve come to losing fingers.

I have hobbies, but none that really feel like a purpose. I liked going on walks when it was warmer out, finding new trails all the time. Tried replacing it with the gym now that it’s colder, but it’s nowhere near the same. Other than that, it’s just writing about the entertainment stuff I mess with like videogames, movies, shows, and books on sites like Letterboxd, Goodreads, and Backloggd.

I work from 5:30 AM till 4:30 PM Monday through Friday. They sometimes give us Mondays off to avoid paying overtime (although lately they’ve been doing Fridays which sucks cause they don’t tell us we’ll have the day off til Thursday and sometimes they’re fine paying overtime so Fridays are harder to schedule stuff on than Mondays). Breaks are at 8:45 AM for 15 minutes, 11:45 AM for 30 minutes, and then sometimes a 2:30 PM one for 15 minutes (this is hit and miss).

The fear of not getting paid and this losing everything is a pretty good motivator. It’s still hard and I often think maybe I should just kill myself cause what’s even the point when this is all life is, but then I just force myself into the shower and take off to my job.

The hero who got Kirk should have gone for Trump. Getting rid of Kirk was good, but there was a better target.

Why I’ve never gotten any further education after high school. Sucks cause there’s subjects I’m fascinated with learning about in a structured environment, but why waste so much money when it leads nowhere? I’m already working a physically demanding job in a slaughterhouse and don’t like anything trade schools teach.
