I don’t think an Adam Sandler film has ever grossed a billion dollars so it seems the cartoon protagonist is in the minority.

Thank you, they have some beautiful options.

Thank you, Steven Singer seems reasonably priced as well.

I’m down about 15lbs in the last few months (mostly due to a hospital visit TBH) but I’m maintaining right now. I stopped drinking a month or so ago and haven’t been eating sweets or anything with excess sugar for about a week and I’ve at least been keeping the weight off, I’m going to increase my visits to the gym and hopefully soon I can break my plateau. I have 22lbs to my first goal weight, 35 to my second and 50 to my final goal, all told I’m trying to lose 65lbs.

I didn’t think there was something worse than the little packs of raisins.

2, an empty can of monster (just finished it) and a water bottle. Pretty standard for a night shift.

I only learned this a few weeks ago at 40 years old, now my hair is blue, both my ears are pierced and I’m a lot happier. I told my 19 year old daughter that “what will people think?” has been my mantra, now it’s “fuck 'em”

My former neighbors never truly appreciated the 4 cars in various states of disrepair taking up the majority of my driveway. I’m not a hoarder, I was just trying to keep our taxes reasonable.

Evolution

Very unsuccessfully, I’ve been fighting this fight for over 30 years in and out of the care of doctors, luckily right now I have insurance so I’m just out copays and whatever fees the psychiatrist’s office decides to send my way but it’s worth it because I’m stable. Without professional help I pile on distractions, hobbies, overwork, volunteering, etc. Not a healthy coping strategy, I’ve tried to kill myself twice (the last time earned me a 4 day medically induced coma) and been put on psychiatric hold. I know you said poor people can’t afford it but there are clinics where I live that deal almost exclusively with the homeless, if they can find a way to help them they may be able to help people in better financial positions who still can’t afford treatment on their budget.

Edit: to address your question more productively, one of the things I’ve been doing on my own is writing to myself. I have been thinking about my situation and identifying behaviors that I need to change. When I go through my days I don’t really consider my actions but when sit and really think about it I can see what I am doing that is toxic, then when I start to do it again it’s easier to identify in the moment and attempt to alter whatever I would have previously done, e.g. when I am frustrated with something one of my kids has done I used to yell quite a lot, now I excuse myself to a quiet place, calm down a bit, and then go back to address their behavior. I haven’t even seen my counselor since my last suicide attempt (less than 3 weeks ago) but I found that this has helped me immensely.

No lie, if I can’t get excited to work on my car I’ll watch the first Fast and Furious movie and it gets me wrenching.

That is helpful, thank you. Something I had thought to look into was a battery powered, heated mirror for exactly that reason.

Thank you

Why I decided murdering civilians was A-OK

As a former resident of Washington, fuck that noise.

Pepperoni, sausage, bacon, ham, marinara sauce, thick, fluffy crust, and NO cheese.

Too bad, I thought those were promising for industrial applications.

3 things you can count on, death, taxes, and war in the middle east.

Ha, the nearest house to mine is a quarter mile away, good luck Samsung.

The Scream 3 soundtrack is one of my favorites and was my introduction to System of a Down.
