I will always be thankful for Dialectical Behavior Therapy by Marsha Linehan. I have never been diagnosed as borderline, but the lack of basic coping and interpersonal skills was obvious. It wasn’t a cure, but it has given me a foundation on which I was able to move forward with deeper, therapeutic processes. Frankly, I think everyone should go thru all the modules at least once.
And God forbid you move too fast for the machine to keep up! Fucking “modern” technology.
Off the top of my head, the cdc does track flu. How they track and calculate is beyond me. It confuses me as to why stuff like this is tracked, and yet the government is so determined to leave people in the dark.
I wonder if this would be such an emergency if it wasn’t for the world cup and the Olympics.
Don’t get me wrong, bed bugs suck (I’ve dealt with them myself), but closing schools? Maybe it’s just because I’m American and I know our country wouldn’t do shit like that for us.
R/Greebles and r/crabcats!
Spying on the pussy next door.
Absolutely this. Roombas are like stupid puppies; you think you have the house roomba proof, only to come home to find it stuck in some obscure corner, whining pathetically.
How is a novice to tell?
I microwave my ice cream. Not until it’s completely melted, but till there is just the right mix of melty and firm. Even better is eating microwaved ice cream in the middle of winter while cuddled under and electric blanket. Pure bliss!
There is a ton of shaming done. Politicians, ceos, newspaper headlines bitching about how no one wants to work, how people need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, how a major economic depression with 50% joblessness will teach workers to appreciate their jobs and their bosses more.
While at the same time telling us to stop buying daily coffees and making avocado toast. Just another way to fuck us up.
I miss these being as ridiculous as headlines got.
Who eats their hotdogs cold?!
To your cheese sausage I would reply “And for you, I have tuna patte.”
Chastity belt… CLANG!
Not a single mention of Blowfly Girl
Note to self: “decorate with crystal balls…” Got it!
It could have been so much better, but The Black Cauldron with the oracular pig is a favorite.
Edit to add: and The Goonies!
Made all the better. Dark fantasy at its best.
For my partner and I, I’m gonna make black and green spaghetti (low carb noodles made of black beans and edamami) with pasta sauce, and meatballs that look kinda like eyeballs (meatballs coated with melted mozzarella, then topped with a sliced green olive olive and pimento middle). I’m hoping shredded parm will add a slightly maggoty touch. I might also throw some candy at kids from my third floor window… haven’t decided yet.
