How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Unless, of course, I find me a cute German

I think Germans are cute too

Michael Fassbender comes to mind.

angry and tired. I let my son have my keys and he spends all day and night out there after texting me he almost got hit by a car and it wrecked his phone. I texted him come home now. again. come home. Just as I was going to express my frustration on here, he came in the door. Yup, dummy never learns, I let my son live with me again. He really doesn't have any income right now so for now... I'll wait until he does and then it's pay up for your food or get out.

He's like what's my problem, umm, I start thinking he's laying in a ditch somewhere. I'm glad he doesn't drive, even though I know he can because some rich girl when he was younger let him drive her car. I was like ''What??? Does she know if you got in an accident she'd have her insurance go up'' yup mom she knew. I did let him drive my car just down the street to me once, and yes, he can drive darn it. He then admitted a while ago he took my car to a place 40 minutes from here one night!! No keys for him anymore.

The day he gets his licence is the day I'll worry constantly. I tell him stuff like a lot of younger people now realize the incovenience of having a car and how it saves money. I just don't want that worry. Amd it's true, most places you don't need a car anymore.

Had my first psychiatry appt yesterday and it went quite well! I'm on Rexulti and Trazadone now. Hoping things just go my way for once with minimal side effects. Had therapy today and it was definitely nice to just talk and be heard. Feeling good.

Exciting times.

Sounds good . Glad it was a positive experience

Stressed. My remote job platform has crashed losing a bunch of my projects I had in progress and don't know if they're going to be retrieved. That was supposed to be my income for the next week. At the same time had another project made available at a high rate of pay but am too exhausted to look at it as it's new and complicated. Had 3 meetings back to back for my other job. Plus the commute. I'm tired. I've ordered pizza and hope I can now just write the day off. I normally enjoy my Thursdays as it's nearly the weekend but things are starting to look shaky income-wise and causing me anxiety again.

Sorry, that's rough. Sounds like a good plan though not to look at the other job if your exhausted. Maybe after the weekend you will feel better.

Sweaty.

That sucks hardcore. I would imagine that a platform designed for this purpose would have a backup of user data in "the cloud" or on-premises servers at the vendor. Maybe they have a support line that could help? Just trying to brainstorm here.

I have also lost entire applications to a stupid OS freeze or some other issue that takes a hard power cycle. I know the feeling. I heard something that extends the "death and taxes" set to include "data loss"... so only 3 things are certain in this life. This being true, there are a lot of us in that same boat.

 

[LumberJack]

I feel just a little bit better than tortured. It's a feeling of vulnerability and helplessness. I'm obsessed with the idea that I cannot effectively defend myself from a novel threat. I want to be strong. I know there's no such thing as invincible, but I am painfully tired of being tricked, exploited, and betrayed. This is why people have emotional shells. I believe that most people are decent and would not take advantage of a vulnerable person because it's to their advantage. That's called empathy and compassion. However just enough people lack these traits, and society rewards exploitative behavior on the financial level. Either that, or I just have remarkably disastrous luck when it comes to being a mark.

I hope death comes soon. I'm over this. I can't go off grid and live off the land, but capitalism is hell for anyone who is not financially advantaged from having the right last name or being a sociopath. FTW

Yeah it was around somewhere as I just checked and I had access again now it's too late to work in anything, but people were having weird things happen like work they finished last week appearing in their queue again in a half finished state. I read there was some weird global internet mini-outage today so maybe it was to do with that! Sorry things suck for you so much at the moment, and thanks for taking the time to respond. Funnily enough I was just watching a video about how all the data around will eventually degrade on all the SSDs and conventional HDs and whatnot. Apparently the safest long term data storage is DNA, but it works out about $100million per 100GB 😂

Sorry you are feeling so down. I agree this world is getting harder and harder for the financially disadvantaged. I was reading a site the other day about a rehab facility "for affluent people" that was something insane like $20,000 a week - some people just live in a totally different reality to the most of us.

It seems to have righted itself, or the techs have, so I'll look again tomorrow. I will try to sleep without waking up feeling weird like the last few nights. Might be the warmer weather, I really don't sleep well in it (even worse than usual!)

Our internet was down this morning at work which was great. I had come in, in a bad mood again but wasn't able to have the morning ms teams meeting. So felt better that I hadn't had to go through of that crap as usual.

 

[TragicReality]

Well.... had the wrong date written down for the car, they took it anyways to get it ready to drive again tomorrow. I honestly can't wait to have that freedom back, go see towns or something that I never have. That's what i love about where I live, in less than an hour you are in another town, places to see and visit. I'm sorry for all of you struggling with work. I'd like to be able to work but I could never handle all of that.

Holy smokes, if I had that kind of disposable income I would have hookers and blow all night until my heart exploded. J/k but maybe not entirely 😏

F*** MS teams especially! It’s slightly better than Zoom, but that’s a low bar.
