Ah yes, another cultured user. Everyone should know about and subscribe to Dropout.tv for the content and to support a solidly ethical company. Sam is a saint.

A rollercoaster. It was dropping until the cheese thing, which I think is just normal, unspoken behavior. Sounds to me like a bout of depression, or at least what I think is depression. I 100% get the same lethargy to life, and it tends to come in waves.

If you haven't, I'd look at having a chat with a professional. I'm not a good role model for this, but I have pushed through the lulls more times than I care to admit, and it gets tougher every year. The negative thoughts set in and create this negative feedback loop that makes functioning difficult, and digs a hole that's hard to climb out of.

Anecdotally, if this is new to you, it doesn't make for a happy life. I'm working to get help, but there are roadblocks. I would encourage you to try the same. If it doesn't help, then you can cross that bridge later. If it does, then you'll be in a much better place and the light will shine again.

...or the Internet really is just shitty.

Doing something that will almost assuredly kill you is a suicide attempt.

You should talk to a therapist, it might help your situation.

I get around $120 a week to sell my plasma in the middle of the US at a BioLife center. Payment varies a little depending on the center you go to and various promotions, but it's usually pretty close. It's about 2-3 hours a week commitment.

In college, the money was necessary, but now I do it for extra side cash. My wife and I own a home, two vehicles, and are doing well, so I don't need the money. I do it to supplement non budgeted items for fun, like weed, one or more snowboarding trips to actual elevation, and bass guitars and bass guitar accessories to name a few. Could it pay more? Probably, but I don't feel like I'm getting ripped off for the time I'm giving.

I used to double dip, and do my hourly job while donating, which got me out of the office earlier, and got extra money. Now I'm salary and have meetings and shit.

To each their own. I've watched a lot of movies with Tom Cruise and other shows with other Scientologist. The group is fucked, but I guess that's not where I draw the line in who I choose to allow in my media life, but I get that others do, and that's fine. I have my own moral lines with other things.

My former boss told me that. I asked him if he'd ever been to highschool, because nobody would shit in a litterbox if people knew about it, and no school would be stupid enough to engage in such a ridiculous idea.

Everything about it is so bad. It's like someone woke up one day and thought, what is the legally worst piece of software I can make and force in people?

Any company worth anything will keep recall disabled. Obviously, with Microsoft, it will get "accidentally" activated in an update, so admins will have to play whack a mole, but nobody should enable that malware when it's released.

Sounds like they are advertising a paid option.

Regardless, what's this have to do with the article posted? These action go directly against the point I think you're trying to make.

So Canada fucked up them remedied the situation. What's this have to do with the post?
