Those people sound terrible. However, they are teaching you a harsh, but valuable lesson.
Don't put your happiness in the hands of others.
Another way to say this is don't allow someone else to control when and if you are happy.
There should be very few people in your life that hold that kind of power over you, and they must earn it.
This seems like this is the main community: https://lemmy.world/c/Unlimited_Freedom_Eternal
That community description is something. Here's just the first paragraph:
The Name: “Unlimited Freedom Eternal: League of Individuals”, It translates to “INDIVIDUALISTIC YET HIVE MIND GAIEN SUPERORGANISM (Federation)” it means a scalable, high-level alliance of free kings and queens who together create an eternal, self-regulating, super-powerful living force just like a Gaian superorganism at any scale (planetary, cosmic, or multiversal dreams)!
Someone's put a lot of effort into this. They're creative at least.

I recently finished playing through Itorah, a side scrolling action platformer. It's been on my list for a while. The game is beautiful, the story and art are influenced by Aztec, Incan and Mayan art and culture. There's no voice acting, but each NPC feels different. There's little backtracking, and in the areas you do travel a lot there's usually a new path you can take through it.
I enjoyed my time with the game. The mechanics are fun and varied, and the boss fights are all different and challenging. My playtime was about 20 hours and I didn't rush it. There are achievements for speed running the game too. I didn't get all the achievements on my first play through, so there would be more to do for achievement hunters.
Not a scientist, but I'll try to answer.
Gale Crater is huge. It is 154km (96 miles) in diameter. The meteor that created it would have been massive, and the impact was so big that it caused the surface of Mars to rebound from the hit, causing the mountain in the middle to form. That mountain is called Mount Sharp. The Curiosity rover has been exploring this mountain, and that's where these samples were taken.
The meteor could have brought water with it, but the impact would have been so violent that it all would likely have blasted away from the crater, and any remaining would have been boiled away by the heat of the impact. That water could have flowed back to the crater eventually, through streams or rivers and possibly precipitation.
The fact that these samples are from high up the side of the mountain do bring the question of if this is a sign of water, how did it get there? I believe this is where the researchers are suggesting that Mars could have been very wet.
But as always, these are only theories. The Rovers can only do so much, and until we can get samples back, or boots on the ground, the researchers are left saying "This is probably why, but we could be wrong."
Clover Pit fits this perfectly, because you aren't actually gambling, but in game you are totally gambling.
An opinion that everyone agrees with.
Agree on the quit, disagree on the insta.
Use the time to apply and interview for a new job. Once you've secured a new position, then you quit. Don't hurt your own finances while you hurt your old company.
And it's up to you how much notice you give. Worth considering whether to preserve the professional relationships, or torch that bridge.

2009-2010, you hear about this "Bitcoin" thing for the first time. You remember some old fart telling you about it years ago, but you had no idea what they were talking about and assumed they had mental problems. You decide to download it and start mining it, it doesn't hurt anything. It just uses your CPU to mine them. You let it run and quickly forget about it. Eventually, you get tired of it slowing your computer down. You have a few thousand coins by now, so you shut the miner down and put your wallet somewhere safe. Then you forget all about it, until about 2021...
Mine Bitcoin. Hold.
Have my angry upvote. After I've shaken the dust out of my joints.
