Our checkout lines still have 6ft markers and only one person can be at checkout at the time which they wipe down. Clench281 posted... I've never seen surfaces being disinfected at the grocery aside from occasional touch screen wipedown. Yeah it's hard to wipe down a full grocery store. Ours has people use hand sanitizer at the entrance line and wipes down checkout areas, carts, baskets, and bag loading areas (you have to put your items in your reusable bags in designated areas outside). I've seen fridge handles wipes occasionally. --- aka kriemhilde00 |

Also, I like the lights and music and that helps motivate me because it makes it fun.

| grimhilde00 02/12/21 12:06:35 AM #39 | wwinterj25 posted... Yep. They just send me to my doctor. The doctor offers drugs and/or CBT for my seemingly anxiety issues(still not convinced). I tried two different types of drugs then decided to go without them. Some CBT stuff helps though. Walking/hiking is however one of my biggest helps. Different strokes, different folks though. CBT was very limited in how helpful it was in my experience. I don't think it's good enough for many people I've found DBT more effective and this next week I'll be starting EMDR. DBT is supposed to be useful for cptsd, bpd, and chronic thoughts of suicide. EMDR for PTSD, but apparently more too. TaKun782 posted... That's a hard way to answer if its helpful. Because I feel like I'm not making any progress in my life towards feeling better at this rate. I mean, I've got my reasons for doing it like I said. And what else is there possibly are there..? Not many other options sadly when you think about it. Having a mental health issue feels more like a luxury at times. I'm just glad I can scrap by on Medicare though otherwise I'd be fucked with no help. I didn't mean to be callous but I came off that way. I definitely relate to the sentiment of barely wading water and therapy is just a drifting raft only keeping you so afloat. I guess I just really need to hope it takes me somewhere else. And without it is worse. So you gotta do what little you can? --- aka kriemhilde00 |

| grimhilde00 02/10/21 2:07:02 PM #28 | I just think over time people are going to see Aunt Jemima and not pick it up because of the racist connotation being more on the mind than caring about the brand. I don't think the company is going to do well in the future either way. They shot themselves in the foot decades ago. --- aka kriemhilde00 |
| Topic | Aunt Jemima Finally Gets A New Branding... |
| grimhilde00 02/10/21 1:56:14 PM #24 | Looks fine. Ultimately their original brand is going to hurt profits. As years progress, there's going to be more people who know and care about the racism behind it all and won't pick it up off of shelves because it's weird and a racist relic. So it not having the same brand identification might hurt too, sure, but they're just in a bad place either way. --- aka kriemhilde00 |

These people begin imagine some perfect relationship that was never going to happen and then get mad when the woman doesn't play along. Yeah not viewing your object of desire as a person with their own lives, motivations, choices helps with that too. They imagine this scenario as if the other person is just a side actor in their make believe narrative. --- aka kriemhilde00 |

| grimhilde00 02/09/21 8:43:11 PM #16 | I just don't understand why people are depressed unless they have a literal gun to their head? I could say that. Oppression olympics are bullshit when it comes to individual personal experiences. That's not how the brain works. I've been a year without friends or family and I was barely coming out of a depression isolation right when this all started. I rationally know I've been through worse but it doesn't make now easier People complaining about normies. I'd much rather be normie than have to pay $300/week for emdr therapy I'm desperate for. Very much would prefer being normie. I have tc tagged as needs therapy tho so --- aka kriemhilde00 |

I honestly didn't appreciate celery until I got some local stuff that actually had a nice flavor. Very clean and crisp and mild still, but I went from it being a water plant to it being something kinda nice. Also I like to make a veggie wrap with celery for that crunch. --- aka kriemhilde00 |

People living paycheck to paycheck don't generally have a future guarantee. Even stable salary jobs can be gone. That's not a guarantee. It's just not a thing that's for people without savings. If you're financially secure, you have savings without needing a future paycheck that is not at all guaranteed. --- aka kriemhilde00 |

| grimhilde00 02/07/21 3:38:19 PM #11 | SKARDAVNELNATE posted... Yes. So you're trying to say living paycheck to paycheck is better than the paycheck not being enough? That doesn't make them financially secure. They're one unexpected large expense or emergency from falling into the not good enough category. That's not financially secure. Sure there's different degrees of struggling but that doesn't make anyone living paycheck to paycheck financially secure. And I'm pretty sure paycheck to paycheck usually just encompasses anyone who can't save. --- aka kriemhilde00 |
| Topic | Living paycheck to paycheck |
| grimhilde00 02/07/21 3:10:13 PM #7 | Paycheck to paycheck generally includes people barely scraping by > Imagine making so much that you don't have to save up for anything and the security that more is on it's way so it doesn't matter if you spend it all by then. That is making assumptions that there's money than could be saved. That's not necessarily true. And people stuck in poverty are often not great about saving money because they expect it to all be gone anyway. Just felt like you made a bunch of assumptions saying people living paycheck to paycheck are financially secure. The very financially secure can waste money and still save. It's not security to be dependent on an imaginary future check. --- aka kriemhilde00 |
| Topic | Living paycheck to paycheck |
| grimhilde00 02/07/21 2:42:32 PM #4 | I've heard that most are living paycheck to paycheck here. But no, I have a year in cash savings for my not-cheap rent plus living expenses. Then I have my brokerage account with even more money if I needed to pull from there. And retirement is large too if I were really desperate. But importantly, I have a safety net with my family. If I hit hard times I could move in with them. Many people don't have that. SKARDAVNELNATE posted... Living paycheck to paycheck sounds like an improvement to my quality of life.
