Am I the only one very suspicious of the amount of odd questions being asked by fresh accounts lately? Maybe I'm just paranoid but I can't help but feel like there's some very glowie activity going on as of late.

I went to a bar to watch Eurovision and booed when Israel came on but I was the only one
Braver than the troops.
Respect G
Did they look at you weird?
I was at the front of the bar so I couldn't see everyone's reactions, but the people I did see just ignored it
I need a place to vent again. But It's bullshit that I need a referral to see a place where I live that offers HRT, but they want a referral that I can't give because the doctor I use to saw for this, left, and his place refused to give that and just told me to get a referral from a primary care doctor, which I don't have.
and im trying not get overwhelmed at the same time with dealing with my dad's affairs either since he died.
I am sorry to hear that. Every person that needs HRT should get it (it should be a fundamental right for those who want it).
HRT should just be sold off the counter or free without any gatekeeping. It just very frustrating especially since I like, I did have access to it before the doctor I saw left last year. And it was sudden to since I schedule an appointment late fall, and they just tell me that the doctor left and sent me a letter saying that they would give a referral! and when I finally get around to it this month, they don't. like...
im genuinely getting angry and want to yell at this place. Actually I am going to raise a mess with this place
True, people should get free HRT if they want, and I wish you the best in getting HRT.
Do you still have the letter? Maybe if you show them their own letter that will convince them.
I do, I just emailed their patient representative contacts with a copy of the letter attached and even mentioned of willing to file a complaint. and if they ignore that I'll just show up to the clinic or call that patient rep line. Like, this is all extremely ridiculous all to get a referral just to see another doctor. It's not as if I'm asking for them to do surgery or something. All this reminds me of my mom who hated doctors, and legitimately. how can someone be a doctor and not end up being like Che Guevara and wanting and fighting for change? How do these doctors just for lack of better terms, not give a shit about the people they claim to care for.
and erg. I'm reminded when I had a very bad tooth infection a decade ago and got turned way from a dentist since I couldn't pay a few grand up front. and the tooth infection was really bad.
Well, doctors are part of the labor aristocracy (I believe), so it is not surprising to me that there would be those more interested in making money than helping people.
I am sorry to hear about your bad tooth infection! I know from experience that the dental industry is horrible when it comes to costs.
started a new job a month ago. In the AI generated onboarding documents it says i better get really comfortable with AI because it will be an extensive part of every job in the company.
fast forward to last weekend when CEO writes an angry teams message saying people are relying too much on AI to do their jobs and aren't putting any thought into anything.
lol lmfao even
I don't know why but the last five days have been weird and bad.
I don't feel like doing anything.
I don't enjoy anything, I think.
I don't want to really do anything.
I have no motivation, I think.
I hate that feeling. I get it a lot.
I am sorry to hear that. I have those days sometimes as well.
Hey everyone, I'm recovered from muscular pain. It was horrible to walk with that pain.
Congrats on your recovery! I had a knee surgery in January, and I can sort of relate to your pain.
I am happy that you are doing better!
what kind of pain? I've been having some pain in my left butt bone when i walk or stand for long periods, and now when i sleep on my left side. it has been going on for about a year or so but seems to be getting much worse lately.
i asked my dr about it last year when i did my physical and he shrugged it off.
i just had an appointment with him again last Friday specifically for this pain and again he shrugged it off and said I'm just getting old and need to do stretches.
I'm getting a new doctor. but also this sucks
People around me are getting married and having kids left and right. I'm 30 and it's just a natural thing to happen to people around my age, but man you start to put imaginary pressure on yourself.
I'm in my 40s, not married, and have no kids. I've been with my partner for 16 years now though.
people like to make comments and things but whatever. i don't really feel the need to change anything.
we're pretty nearly past the age of having kids now but adoption is always an option if we decide we want to have any kids.
anyway i feel like it would have been entirely irresponsible to bring a kid into the world with your much of a trainwreck my life has been until recently so it's nobody's business to tell me what i should and shouldn't be doing.
I felt various kinds of pressure in my twenties and then somehow managed to continue it in my thirties. I hate individualism because it makes my life trajectory feel like something I'm personally succeeding at or "wasting" and it's going to be meaningless if I don't FOMO get to doing the "right stuff" with it. I yearn for a sense of collective meaning about life with stable shared purpose. But I'm too deep in atheism to want to be religious and I was born in Yankeeville. So yeehaw, time to go give another yank on my bootstraps. Maybe this time I'll be able to pull myself up...
Yeah tell me about it. There are 4 kids in my family and my two brothers aren't having kids (one got sterilized and the other is gay). My sister is in her mid 30s and by the looks of it, she isn't having kids either even though she's married
I'm the youngest (in my mid 20s), and I'm really starting to feel the pressure of being the one responsible for continuing the bloodline. So yeah I totally get you
continuing the bloodline.
That's a eugenicists brain worm. Kill that idea.
Like if you have an interesting family history and culture its cool to pass that sort of thing on but that doesn't need to be given to someone spawned of your loins.
my sisters all have multiple kids.. but I'm the only man with my grandpa's name. i did feel a lot of pressure at one point but i just think in the grand scheme of things this is absolutely unimportant
You made me feel better. Thank you
🫵 You WILL have hope, comrade.
Thank you for the comment! I think you have said this a few times on this thread, but thank you for saying this!

That lake looks really cool!
Hey everyone, welcome back to the general thread! I hope everyone has a great week and keeps pressing forward. May your steady efforts build up to positive development in your lives!
As always, communism will win.
Wind dog! Hello!
Hello! Hope things are going well for you!
I am ok, just a bit bored. I unfortunately watched BadMouse to see what they had to say, and they are awfully anarchist.
Oh, that's no fun! Sorry to hear that.
Well, it can sometimes be fun seeing their bad arguments, but it can also be tiring seeing them make such awful arguments lol.
I honestly see it as a drain in mental health to be spending a lot of time on that kind of stuff, much better to engage in positive work and hobbies.
True, which is why I only watch them sometimes. Thanks for the advice, comrade! :>
No problem!
we should pool our resources and buy a big house together
You could try what these 7 friends did in China:

i fantasize about funny cartoon situations like this with me and my friends constantly or any personification of random concepts living in houses. when i was wee i used to get in trouble for drawing equations as big Number Machines, the innards of which were nice wonderful lodging for numbers, and those selected would check out and join the equation as the result. sorry unrelated. but yes i agreed what a wonderful sillay image
i would cook and u do the budgeting
it takes me 4 years because i’m intricately drawing the number machine for every equation i do
