it's fine, I'm doing okay for now for the most part. I had long stretches where my ability to sleep was just so fucked. like I'd just lay there and just curse my existence and on a few occasions get up and go scream in frustration somewhere else, but it's been much better after getting a new mattress, lmao

has a doctor ever explained to you why the surgery didn't work in your case? like was it improperly done, and maybe something that could still be fixed? it seems really specific to have to sleep on one side, and like something that would still have an obvious underlying cause? idk

I think she's still paying for it

that's fucked, jesus

do you know how much she might owe on it? I'm financially fucked on the regular, but maybe we could start a gofundme or something to free your mother of this burden? idk

oh cool so if i can ever get surgery it might not even help

that sucks though, I'm really sorry :/ I have to shift around in the night or else my back ends up hurting... like pressure builds up in weird spots on my spine until I get it just right. if I HAD to lay on my left side I would be so screwed so many nights when it ends up feeling painful

I brutally pull all my nose hairs out with tweezers because I am a masochist

gd dude wtf lol

get a nose hair trimmer. I need a new one because my current one only works if I use my hand to jam the batteries in harder

I honestly don't care when people censor their swears

that's your opinion and I disagree because I do care because I think it's dumb because I disrespect the entire notion of "swear words" as sacrosanct, inviolable constructs

I lost a job because I was swearing as an expression of my very human emotions of frustration and someone who was entirely unrelated to this, dozens of feet away, only overhearing these words, was so offended they reported me, and that is a culture I think must be erased from the earth (AND CENSORING SWEARS ONLINE IS A GATEWAY)

that's fuinny but it's also way different than censoring a swear word because swearing is bad

this site is the only place on the internet where there are people with good opinions, even though there are some bad opinions as well, truly a land of contrasts

They should all be state-run like all other emergency services.

like literally just kiosk screens outside (or an air conditioned waiting place idk)

they can literally put cameras in the bins if they need to "see" the produce or whatever, if it's groceries, or just like idk fuck em what you get is what you get. it's less of an issue with household goods that are essentially identical

man, add to my complaints about wasted hours, the number of times I've had to painstakingly figure out how to put stuff back into a box, because some customer wanted to look inside, and if I don't put it back just right it'll be obvious it was tampered with and nobody will buy it

man I used to shoplift tea tree essential oil and they just stopped carrying it. now if i want to buy it it's like 28 dollars online??? I need to find a different brand I guess idk

second-hand wine country snobbery and liberal pretentiousness

I've never thought that of your posts, imo I think you just have an energy and intensity that might rub some people the wrong way sometimes, but that's okay because it's just you being you and not vibing with their vibes, it's not an annoying thing or something to overly think over and feel bad about. Can't please everyone, so whatever, haters

again, i think you're a valuable addition to the site and I'm glad you're back postin', although I hope that isn't at the expense of your touch-grassy intentions when you engaged in your recent Long Log-Off

woah just 40 minutes ago I posted about my stupid nose hairs. I agree, what the fuck is this?

I think I have some fucked up deviated septum shit or something because most of the time I only really get good air flow from one nostril

now I'm having like huge ass nose hairs just shooting everywhere (because the curse of being male is your nose hairs, nose cartilage, ear hairs and cartilage never stop growing, apparently, what is that)

Working in apparel was Sisyphean

it really really is, thankfully I was mitigated from most of the clothing stuff (working in electronics, then housewares, etc, only having to fold sometimes) but it was still fucked. I hated every second of it. And doing the online order fulfillment, which was honestly the best work in retail because you're just going around looking for shit all day and not bothered by people, was still intensely frustrating because you'd have to literally check everywhere for things sometimes because people just put shit wherever. Every time I was given an order for an item that was in the back room, it was like, fuck yes because I wouldn't have to go digging for it

"It's the internet. You are allowed to swear."

I think people only say that though when people swear but censor their swearing i.e. "f*ck", which, imo, is very silly to do, like, no more half measures, walter

counterview: every store should be, at most, a dollar store

if you're talking about me I'm not pro amazon or whatever, but I am pro "never have customers interacting with a store full of merchandise, even under communism" like I am sorry but unless you're going to gulag bad customers who don't do the work of picking up after themselves, it is dogshit slavery that needs to be abolished. No more of it. No more hours of peoples' lives wasted cleaning up after fellow adults just because they're fucking lazy. so I am pro "warehouse distribution model" if anything.

you can either have private jackasses own everything like petty kings of their little financial fiefdoms, or you can have capital be socially owned and operated without the explicit need for next quarter profit seeking, those are your fucking choices you nerd

i don't understand how anyone could not think about that and think "wow, that in and of itself must be incredibly psychologically traumatic" like jfc

America must be destroyed
