fascinating hunger games is having such a cultural resurgence given how shitty everything in our world is. i love the series but christ every scene is dark and depressing

What was your most awkward moment of the last year?

last time i got a haircut the barber lady was quite cute and chatty and in the middle of the haircut, this obnoxious song came on the radio over the PA whose lyrics were quite literally i’m falling in love with a stranger repeated 50 times, crystal clear, little instrumental backing even. and of course she could feel my...

The transition from the holiday season back to the normal drudgery is so depressing. Is there any way to make Jan / Feb less depressing?

like, it’s still dark at 5pm, there are barely any sports on, still bitterly cold and austere and it hurts to go outside, but you’re not even looking forward to christmas or the new year. the new year is here, and it’s largely the same as last year. except you’re getting older.

fr fr i feel like such a horrible loser whenever i throw out groceries, esp produce. how do people plan their lives out perfectly such that it seems like this never happens to a proper adult

_number8_,

being overly paranoid about finances

i used ynab for a while but am now realizing it’s probably worse for my mental health to keep track of things that granularly. need to go back to a more zoomed out, normal person sort of management scheme

_number8_,

the way i see it, the world may well end within our lifetime. when the credit card server farms collapse into the encroaching ocean it won’t matter anymore

Is there a forum for people who are lonely and sad but specifically not incel sickos?

like you know you’re a good person at heart but life circumstances and trauma and bullying and etc prevented you from learning the proper social skills to find companionship. not necessarily a forum to actually find friends (i find going into things with that intention feels fake and weird), but rather a forum to commiserate...

_number8_,

simply use the moisture from the sprayers

_number8_,

pedal steel or any sort of slide guitar

Current and Former (Fast) Food Service Workers - How do you handle requests like “All the fries you can give me”?

Just curious as I’ve never been on the other side of the counter, how does this sort of thing tend to work at restaurants? Fast food and fast-casual places are where I’ve heard customers say things “pile as much lettuce on there as you’re allowed to” - is there ever a limit your supervisor instructed you for things...

_number8_,

depends on how busy it was and/or how good of a mood i was in. i worked at a pizza place and would usually try to hook people up as reasonably as possible (not charge someone if they were taking off a topping then adding a topping even tho you were meant to, giving like 8 cheese cups if they ordered 5 (mood/rush/etc dependent), ample extra toppings if they were nice, etc)

_number8_,

i’d literally rather die than go to a party. unfocused undirected unscheduled endless socializing where i have to pretend like i’m having 100% fun is a torture sentence

_number8_,

i genuinely hate that phrase, it’s usually used by people to get you to stop complaining about a valid issue

_number8_,

well it’s a bullshit fake restriction that has zero need to exist beyond greed. very cool of them to try to get something going.

_number8_,

definitely. i’m usually dreading the part right after opening gifts. – the whole day feels stagnant and dead, everything is shut, there’s nothing to do but wait for how shitty jan and feb will be. brutal dead awful months

_number8_,

i recently bought a new device so i had to install the fresh / current versions of my apps. very annoying because god the twitter icon looks like fucking garbage now

_number8_,

fuck why can’t i live in europe. almost every day i have the opposite experience where a well meaning midwest person tries to be friendly and my brain just…stalls and does something like this

_number8_,

so people can tee off it, because shitty bad viewpoints are easy to argue against, and the more people that see the rebuttals, the better

_number8_,

tell me more about how landscaping with physical labor and materials is just like having a server turned on
