For Lemmy. Moving from the alien site to here has been fantastic.

๐Ÿค— I'm sorry your having such a tough time.. Everything is temporary. I know it feels hard right now... Don't make a permanent solution to these temporary problems... Things will change. Keep going. Best of luck to you. ๐Ÿค—

1am geezus back when I worked at Bestbuy. 2008ish I came in at 3:30am to sell shitty netbooks to customers waiting in the lines outside.

As a past retail worker. Black Friday was miserable. I worked at Bestbuy. I saw a lot of people breakdown and quit thay day due to the stress. Don't encourage it. If you do go out. Be respectful and remember it's just things that don't really matter. I have never gone out and don't support it especially the trickling of businesses forcing employees to work on Thanksgiving.

Yeah Gmail is the hardest. Just for the sheer amount of logins. Been with it was an invite only beta in like 2005. I got a paid proton account but it's hard to shake it because I'm constantly needing to log back in with it.

Pop_OS! Is the one I chose to finally move full time to Linux. I have zero regrets. It's been great

Yes, I have a wood burning fireplace just seemed like a good idea.

I'm flirty, thankful and sometimes say stuff I regret the next day (usually dumb jokes). Pretty good overall.

You did a good thing! alcohol can lower the shields for good or ill. Sometimes it can allow the facade we all carry about different aspects of our perceived selves to fall away and we can truly see what we need to do.

My poor wife if she gets too drunk just cries and cries. She has had such terrible loss in her family her entire life and when she drinks way too much she just sobs almost uncontrollably. It's terrible. Because she remembers her brother, her dad, her grandpa, all gone tragically. She hasnt done that in a few years because we are getting older and drunk stupidly less but it was a thing for awhile.

Alcohol is weird man.

Or late at night...

Or ever...
