Easy to forget Time once picked a silicon based life form.

I didn’t know that.

They also once picked “You,” with a reflective cover so you could see yourself.

Didn’t know that either.

Trump has declared that the USA will officially recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. He is also going to move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

Gosh, they bettet do something. This guy is obviously nuts.

I’m not trying to win anything.

Not in the grand scheme of things I suppose.

Or any other scheme of things.

How about the scheme of grammar?

If the title is called PERSON (Man) of the Year, how can you pick a group of people (women)?

Incoming Trump tweet.

I never said man. Don’t do that. I would have had no problem at all if they had picked a woman.

Well its true.

Not in the grand scheme of things I suppose. But it just doesn’t make sense.

“The Silence Breakers”(plural) are not a person(singular), they are people(plural).

(No offense intended to those that have/are coming foward and confronting those that sexaully harrassed/assulted them.)

If the title is called PERSON of the Year, how can you pick a group of people?

Well, try to keep an open mind until you actually see it.

I have an open mind I just don’t want to see it. I hate Christmas and find it the most depressing time of the year.

Well if you don’t want to see the new Star Wars movie, don’t see it.

As for Christmas, I’m sorry I know this can be a difficult time of year for some.

Well, try to keep an open mind until you actually see it.

This is depressing. 😦

Dude you really need to chill. He told you to stop sighing without explanation. He didn’t ban you for expressing your opinion.

actually he did once. Remember the 2nd temp ban he gave me?

I’m surprised you went with that instead of the recent “comparing someone to a Nazi will result in a ban” post in response to the “No one was banned for comparing us to Nazis” post. But that’s just me 😛.

I promised I wouldn’t talk about that anymore.

For what it is worth, Silverwook, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Stay safe.

However, no one will ever be banned for expressing their opinion about this place as long as it doesn’t get personal. A little over 10 years ago, we were being compared to Nazis due to some moderator actions, and yet no one got banned. You can feel safe knowing that you can be the same jerks to us you’ve always been (winky…face?).

I think you need to tell this to oojason.

I think I mostly agree with _ender’s message, but the messsaging could use a bit of work.

I appreciate this post and I agree with it.

This is a weird (and oddly troll-like) way to agree.

?

Stay safe Wook.

ditto.

Can confirm, the car exploded on a delivery. That’s why I disappeared for so long. 😉

ChainsawAsh said:

I miss being a pizza delivery guy. I liked that job.

I didn’t like what it did to my car, though.

made it permanently smell like pizza I’ll bet.

But deep down I think you know that isn’t the answer either. (Not being condescending, swearzies).

On my own front, my girlfriends ex is stalking both of us. Has been for six months. Have restraining order. Doesn’t care. Cops won’t do anything. Hacks her Facebook page. Somehow reads her text messages. Other details I won’t put here. It’s scary. It’s gotten so bad in the past week or so I’m almost scared to even post this here or he’ll somehow figure link me to it even though that’s ludicrous. It’s getting to me. I’m at my wits end and so is she. It literally feels like being in a horror movie. He knows everything we do. He reads our fucking text messages. Not Facebook, phone texts.

ouch. That sounds scary. All I can say is to keep reporting everything to cops and hopefully they will finally be able to do something. I wish there was better advice I could give you. I’d be praying for you and your girlfriend’s safety.

I apologise for being in hermit mode myself. Sorry to read you are feeling low Warb.

Thanks but obviously, I am not having anywhere near the kind of problems you are having. You have my sympathies.

I hope things pick up for you soon. And it’s great that despite our troubles we are making good use of this space Ender constructed for us and we are breaking down the frequent misconception that these sorts of issues are rare or something to be ashamed of. Ash good friends don’t avoid friends when they are having a hard time. That’s when good friends step up to the plate and fill it with yummy beans on toast. My ticks have just got worse and worse. It’s effecting my work. But I have my first session with a counsellor on Tuesday and I’m taking professional relationship advice on Wednesday. It a really hard time. Saturday night I was constantly on the edge of tears, last night I was on caffeine free caffeine overdose, so hyperaware, jittery, quaking, shaking, racing thoughts. I never been in this state before so it’s all new and scary stuff. My soon to be ex-partner has gone from yelling at me to stop to becoming genuinely concerned for my health. It kind of helps but it it also makes things a bit difficult when it comes to implementing the changes I need to make. I’ve started looking for places to move to. Knowing that Christmas is soon and that once the decorations come down I have to man up and announce my intentions is adding pressure. I wish someone else could do it all for me to be honest but I can’t. Restless legs at night are making sleep difficult too. But help is on its way and I have a new pal at work who is going through something similar. As Leela used to say “if you are wounded, find a man with scars” so keep the thread going because there seems to be a lot of need for it at the moment. And we can all help each other by breaking down stigma.

I’m sorry you having such difficult problems right now. I think it is good you are seeking professional help. I wish I had some good advice, but this seems way beyond anything I can give good advice about. You’ll be in my prayers.

Good luck!
