the new switcheroo

i wouldn't be surprised if microsoft was pushing for the hyper realistic graffix because they desperately need their big impressive showstopping exclusive now more than ever

wasn't hellblade 2 supposed to be just that? >_>

what should i do if i poop in public? you want me to waddle my ass to the sink to wet the TP and put some soap on it?

please do tomba 2 next, for the love of god

But I keep telling them I don't want that.

I feel like I need an emotional connection to even think about engaging in sex.

Does it work for some of you though? Has it made the pain easier to move past?

Ya'll would just be chilling, listening to the teacher, and some random kid starts projectile vomiting with no warning sign

Why exactly do you want this?

If you arent sure, just use protection. There are so many options.

Dont do it because you want to be irresponsible

i guess i just want to make sure it doesn't happen by accident . but you're right that i should consider other contraceptives in the mean time.

i'm afraid of giving up the option for kids entirely.

I'm like 90% sure i don't want any. I guess i'm still on the fence.

I don't see myself being a good parent. I'm too selfish. I like sleeping, i like my alone time and i like having a lot of disposable income.

has anyone here done the procedure? how did you feel after?

feel them static textures >=)

Do you experience the following:

-Executive dysfunction (wanting to do tasks, but your brain will not let you)
-Difficulties with emotional regulation
-Special interest for something (a subject, a book, tv series, game, ect)
-Find it difficult to understand social cues. Need direct and literal communication
-Your 5 senses are highly sensitive (for instance, you can't eat certain foods due to their texture, or you can't wear certain clothes like jeans because the fabric feels weird)
-Stimming (physical act of fidgeting with a toy, object, or with a body part in order to dispel excess energy)
-Social battery drains very fast.
-You feel like you've been masking for most of your life in order to give the appearance of "normalcy"

Like others have said, get a psych evaluation from a professional. But the things i mentioned are some of the things NDs can experience. it's a spectrum though, so you might not experience all of those.

If it makes you feel better, I'm 41 and never been married.

do you ever feel bad about it though?

that's the cutest fucking thing i've ever seen in my life

or have a family?

i just feel like i'm supposed to. idk

hello

There's always lower. Trust me

Make sure you're getting lots of protein.

So, update :

My manager responded to my email. She said :

"Hi,

Hope your day is going well. No prep needed. It's just a 1:1.

Thanks,"

So, looks like I'm in the clear. She probably just wants to know if I need help with things or for me to bring up any issues I'm having.

That's a relief. I'm definitely working on getting better at the job. I wanna show that I'm committed to this.

Other than the initial shock, it'll be a good thing in the long run. The workplace was getting toxic and the pay wasn't great.

I spent the first month just kinda chilling and am only now really starting to get into the job search. Still very optimistic.

I wish you luck, man! Glad you got out of there in a way if it was waning on your mental. Dealing with that can destroy your soul.

Ascii jinjo. God, that brings back memories.

True. I have a feeling she just wants to check up on me to see if maybe I need help with anything.

I'll come back and post if I get an answer tomorrow.

NightRender posted...

I feel like the fact that it's in a week and not next day means you're fine. Asking if you need to prep something is a good move though.

The way I got fired a few months ago is I got a meeting invite after hours. Sent at 7:00pm even most people stop working at 5:00pm. It was for the next day just with my director, not my direct manager. It had some clearly bs description like "want to pick your brain about a project".

I figured there was a 80% chance of me being let go. A 15% chance that either my director or manager was leaving or being let go. And maybe a 5% outside chance of some other organizational change or something. I didn't have my hopes up and sure enough, blah blah cutbacks blah blah position eliminated.

Ah shit. I'm sorry. Getting the whole cutback spiel must have been hard to hear.

Have you found anything since then?

LonelyStoner posted...

Not a problem! Youre preaching to the choir. I run through every single possibility before events like that and assume the worst of them all. Im a bit pessimistic and myopic, so thats a big hindrance.

I feel ya. Not an easy thing to control at times. But we're doing the best we can to calm ourselves down when needed

LonelyStoner posted...

Im someone who always builds situations up to more than they are thanks to my raging anxiety. I really get it. Like 9 times out of 10 I come out on the other side realizing I was making mountains out of molehills. Youve got this, man.

Thanks! I think the worst part about anxiety is the buildup to the actual event. Cause then your mind has time to create all these different possible scenarios.

LonelyStoner posted...

I would say that those words are evidence that the meeting is probably just something the boss is doing with all his employees as a 1 on 1 check-in.

You're probably right. I'm most likely being anxious.

I think I'll email her tomorrow though and just phrase it like "oh, do I need to prepare anything for next week's meeting?"

Thank you, everyone. I'm a bit more reassured.

LonelyStoner posted...

Thats what I meant, sorry. But yeah unless HR is involved it likely wont be a big deal.

No worries. I'm hoping too.

The past 2 years have not been kind to me on a personal level. But one of the really good things was my job and the people I work with. I felt calm and enjoyed working. For me to lose this now would be devasting.....

PurpleOutsider posted...

Do you have coworkers? Because it might be about someone else possibly being fired and they need your statement.

Yeah I do. But that'd be weird to schedule it so far ahead just to ask me that , no?

Is this an online job?

It's a remote job.

Yawn_Master2 posted...

Was the shift to a new team lateral, upward or downward?

if lateral or upwards, it would be weird to give you only a month on a new team unless you have a bad reputation.

Lateral. I've tried my best to be cordial with everyone, I make sure to communicate with who I need to, I'm making sure to do the work.

I was really down on myself for the mistakes I made I recently, but a coworker told me not to sweat too much. He said when he first started too that he was pretty overwhelmed with all the steps to remember

Realforce posted...

Do you see HR anywhere on the invite?

No, luckily.

I've been at my company for almost 2 years now (started out on contract, then became full time). I feel like I've been doing good, and I managed to get my performance bonus back in February for my performance in 2023. I recently shifted teams about a month ago though, and have been learning some new processes and protocols. Been making sure to ask questions when needed. I did make some mistakes recently, but nothing too major.

However, just this evening my manager scheduled a 1 on 1 meeting with me for next Wednesday at lunch time . It doesn't say what it's about.

Should I be worried? Should I email her tomorrow and ask what it's about?

I probably could have prevented some damage if I would have told somebody. But I was too embarrassed since I was definitely old enough to know better. >_> I was in 5th grade.

coulda told someone you were looking at clouds or sum shit for too long lol <_<

bro, that sucks. crazy how a small little dare could have crazy repercussions like that :(

oh god, help

waaaay ahead of you

I saw a tik tok about a pregnant wife making fun of her husband cause he was pretty nervous about getting blood drawn.

The comments had people saying he should grow up, and that his behavior was unattractive

What say you CE

Peace and quiet.
