First week it made me feel like there was a very light electric current running through my body. Not unpleasant, just a bit odd. Tingly. And yawning uncontrollably for a few hours after taking them for a few weeks.

Again, not unpleasant. But I absolutely embraced them, I did not fight the effects. I was very, very glad to try medications.

Now, after like 4 or 5 years, I can clearly tell the difference between before and after - the difference is, instead of downward spiralling into a hideous pit that I couldn't climb out of, that spiralling downwards still starts, but it stops.

Instead of falling into the pit, I can just choose not to keep going down.

Things are still upsetting and I still take things worse than other people but I dont become out-of-control spiralling downwards forever until I can't function. I have gained the ability to shrug and go "that sucks but, whatever".

Why is Spotify's shuffle so abysmally awful? It's nigh on useless

Is this a thing? I feel like I often have to repeat my very clear and simple words and even then people remember them differently than I do? I thought I was just insane

Fucking dumb headline - what the the fuck do they mean "allow"?

I'm Australian. No cunt I know is picking up their phone after hours if it's their boss, unless they're working in some on call or executive job that explicitly requires - and PAYS - for that.

Just don't answer your phone dickheads

Trying to hold it all together for another day. Going through a thing. It'll be fine but need to just make it through the next couple of days I reckon.

I remain cautiously pessimistic at this point.

Millennials are probably the best at avoiding scams.

Unfortunately we also have no money to scam anyway.

Incredible, cracked the pseudorandomness problem with this simple code that guarantees a random whole number greater than 3 and less than 5.

Nah, you got the wrong end of the stick, this is an uplifting story - it's a kid working hard to provide for his mum's cancer treatment that in any other developed nation would be covered by taxes. Uplifting. Right? So Uplifting. He doesn't need to be with his mum in her time of need, he should be suckin that capitalist dick.

And the woman who accused him is now going to jail for 44 years, right? Right?

I like this turn of phrase

It is exactly like that. A little warm secret fire in your heart, something that's yours and brings you comfort but slowly fucking burns everything else to ash.
