I hope people struggling with Cluster B personality disorders get the help they need. However, I’m too traumatized by abuse from people with these disorders to engage with anyone who exhibits the associated toxic behaviors.

It was intentional. WCK coordinated with the IDF on the route plan.
Got a refurbished steelcase for ~300 with no regrets.
Probably by design, to be honest. Jobs tend to be very anti-parent, especially in US states where FMLA is legally protected.
I’m fortunate to work for a company that has a culture of prioritizing real life so you can do your best work. Sadly, that’s antithetical to next quarter thinking, so it’s not the norm.
The dumb thing is (in my experience) parents seem to work harder and stay at companies for longer than childless folks. They’re just shorter on free time and need some basic flexibility to address emergent issues. Not to mention being better at teaching and managing in general.
Don’t get sequenced and encourage your relatives to avoid as well. It’s not worth risking your genome getting leaked.
It was a really rough time after I got the cPTSD diagnosis because it really changed the context of my life. So my brain, being so very helpful, decided to do a 24/7 stream of my past for reconciliation. Probably not a unique experience so here’s tips I could have used earlier on:
mindfulness practice is paramount so that you’re not just like dissociating into oblivion or getting consumed by flashbacks. James Gordon’s “The Transformation” (also printed as “Transforming Trauma”) is pretty solid on the mindfulness stuff, though some of it needs to be taken with like a fistful of salt.
sleep hygiene is everything since without it, symptoms are worse and you’re less equipped to cope. Do not be afraid to get psychiatric help if nothing is working. The last thing you want is to be in urgent care after being awake for four days straight.
get on some anxiety medication. Helps with the sleep and with having more mental space when flashbacks hit
weekly therapy
lean on supportive humans in your life. DBT might help stand in if you don’t have those, but you need to be careful that it’s not a group dominated by cluster B personality disorders (I.e. people like your abuser(s))
schedule time for soothing activities that you enjoy
exercise. Doesn’t have to be extreme, but like try and at least walk for half an hour a day.
Tl;dr - sleep, mindfulness, therapist, psychiatrist, support of loved ones, self-care, exercise
You can set a prompt on Poe with GPT-4 that allows for lewd RP. Will still occasionally throw “I’m sorry, I can’t”s but you just gotta remind it to follow the prompt and stay in character after deleting the message.
I’m not posting the copy pasta for it. Easy enough to find.
Worth $20 dollars on a Privacy card to try out, IMHO.
Ah yes, the classic “paying nothing to sustain and support a service, then declaring it hopeless because ‘the poors fucked it up’.”
Not sure things would look much different if Twitter was intentionally destroyed.
Windows 11 is adware and spyware wrapped in a thin OS veneer. I will never upgrade, end of support or no.
Love this energy and your username.
He’s also a class traitor. Should know better than fucking over workers from actual life experience in the working class. Still doesn’t give a shit.
Can anyone with Nature access help with the full-text? It’s not on Sci-Hub yet.
Oh I’m sure you would have warm, fuzzy feelings if your government decimated your city and you had no agency to leave. Lack of clean water, food, and medical aid amidst ongoing death and destruction would only endear them to you further, but of course!
Alt-J just cinches it for me 🎶🥰🎶
Sounds like you’ve got your bases covered. The only thing I might add is getting legal advice from someone who specializes in ADA/Title II. Unfortunately, there isn’t really an effective escape from workplace bullying other than to GTFO if HR is unhelpful.
FWIW I think the majority of people struggle with mental and physical health working 40/hr a week in earnest. It’s not sustainable and I wish we’d stop pretending like it is just because it’s less heinous than what predated it.
From what I understand, most employ various strategies to avoid literally working for 40 hours. The jobs that aren’t conducive to this (cough cough Amazon delivery and warehouse) are especially barbaric.
If you’re neurodivergent it’s much harder to retain a job in virtue of likability/social connections so you’re more likely to have to put your nose to the grindstone to get by.
Humans should not be coerced to sell all of the concentrated effort/time they get in a week (and then some) just to survive.
This thread really showcases white fragility.
This link is just scam popups for me. Seems like spam.
It seems to happen when the link image is gif or webm. I’m on mobile safari and get a black popup with the image in question in top left corner when I load a beehaw page that has a link like this. Can tap to make it go away but it is jarring.
Edit: here’s the example link
