It’s usually just a personal call based on how someone sees the world, so you really can't paint everyone with the same brush.

Which God are we talking about here?
As far as I know, believing in God requires capitalizing His name, otherwise it's a sin 🤷.

If the timer for the next batch doesn't even start until the current one expires, wouldn't that just mean we end up with a bunch of tiny little cards* instead of one big winner? 🤔

Either way, I really think you guys should have sent out some kind of official heads-up. This isn't just some theoretical experiment on paper anymore—it’s actually happening.

*you know, those random ones they hand out for basically nothing

Jose Ward4 said:And maybe you will too, Brandon. Faith is always there, and so is hope. I truly believe I'll eventually overcome this—this whole mental fog and diagnosis—and reach a point where I don't need the pills anymore. I really do. Hope is everything. I need to get my act together, and it's definitely time to start therapy. Wishing you nothing but the best. I hope things turn out well for you. Goodnight.

Right back at you.
Goodnight

Jose Ward4 said:Look, I wasn't bowing down to you, you totally misunderstood me. I just wanted to give you a little boost because you really are a great person, and I mean that. You're young, but you've got a good head on your shoulders. It sucks that you have to go back to therapy. I wanted to say that from the heart; I'm not the type to play the sycophant, I was just speaking my truth. Just thought you should know. I don't know if people usually miss that or just choose not to see it. And why do you feel out of control? Also, how's your sleep lately?

I'm sliding into that depressive slump now. Went from "can't fall asleep" to "sleeping all day long." Neither one is exactly winning, and they both come from different places.

But whatever, I'll get there.
Gotta find that balance somehow. Maybe one day I'll be able to ditch the meds, but honestly? I'm not holding my breath.

Jose Ward4 said:Brandon, look, I don't love your tone, but you're spot on every single time. People really couldn't care less about you or what you're going through. But listen, I care about you, and I always will. I'm honestly so proud of how you've pushed through all of this without anyone stepping up to actually help. That takes serious grit. And seeing you off those pills? That’s huge. It shows how much strength you have. I was just at the CVS picking up some prescription meds earlier, and man, I felt such a wave of frustration toward the whole pharmaceutical industry. They spend so much time convincing us we're broken just to sell us a fix, and for now, it feels like that's just the reality we live in. Still, I think you're incredibly brave, and I truly respect you for it. Sending love.

Thanks.
Actually, I’m starting my medication back up this week because I just can't manage without it anymore. So, you might be "bowing down" to the wrong person here if you think it's easy to just go without.

It's out of my hands, and the worst part is, I feel like I'm losing control of myself, too.
At least the second part is something I can try to fix.

This whole thread drives me nuts, and honestly, seeing it pop up in my feed just gets under my skin because every single time, the answer to the main question is always so damn obvious.
I mean, the answer is "nothing," right?

Think about it. The only way he’s "happy" is if he’s actually working and can at least cover his basic bills.

My ex-husband and I didn't exactly have massive salaries—maybe $7,000 combined if he pulled a ton of overtime that month.
We had some comfortable stretches, and other times things were tighter, especially since we lived in a city that wasn't exactly overpriced.

Back when I was living with a roommate and making that famous $4,500–$5,000 salary, there were months where I was barely scraping by if anything unexpected popped up (like a gadget breaking or an extra utility bill hitting).

Was I starving? No.
Does it look great on paper $1500 for one person? Sure, it does.
But in the real world, it's a whole different story.

Unless you're living on credit cards, which I worked really hard to avoid because I know once you fall into that hole, it's a nightmare getting out.

A lady doesn't fart ☕.
Well, there goes my image of you being a total class act 🙄.

In my head, Joseph Bailey41 is standing at least 5'9", slim but definitely feminine. She’s got this long black hair she just tosses aside when she starts getting witty and sharp-tongued.
Between that innocent "little girl" look in her eyes and a vocabulary that belongs in a sailor's bar, she's something else 😁.

Basically, she looks exactly like the profile picture here 😛.

I had no clue being a slut was strictly reserved for unsuccessful, single women.

Now I’ve got some catching up to do with all those people who spent my entire marriage calling me names just because I wasn't interested in them🙂.

Betty Fowler said:Me.
Got an issue with that? 🙂

I just can't stand being lied to when the truth is staring us right in the face☕.

Enough with the side quests, let's get back to the actual topic🎉.

Who actually said I was
1) gorgeous
2) brilliant
4) a woman
?

Honestly, we're all just a bunch of molecules vibrating to the beat of Beethoven🙂.

In my opinion, she’s neither particularly bright nor particularly funny.
Just because she isn't easy on the eyes doesn't mean she's anything special 😳.
There’s this whole myth that if a woman is unattractive, she can't also be dim-witted and boring 🥳.

Betty Fowler said:Well, you were the one who admitted to having a thing for dictators with mustaches. 🤷

But getting back to the point... I find Andrea Andrassy to be quite sapiosexual. 🤣

So does that automatically mean I’m into EVERY mustache-wearing dictator out there?

Anyway, back to what we were actually talking about... Andrea Andrassy is sapiosexual. 🤣

So what you're saying is you're into women with pale, horse-like faces? 🍿

Me.

I mean, he’s basically just some artsy-fartsy, bitter narcissist. 😳

So you think Hitler is sexy? 🍿

Oh man, a Hitler joke.
Seriously, that never gets old 🙂.

Gibbs, getting a little stalkerish there, aren't we? 🤮

Maria Barnes said:I’m looking for candidates for the Psychology moderator position. Since gender doesn't matter here, I'll use feminine pronouns for the role:

We need someone sociable, easygoing, educated, and genuinely sharp. No mental health issues, and zero interest in chasing clout or money—just a desire to support our community and subforums.

Candidates should be psychologists, psychiatrists, or psychotherapists by profession, or at least aspiring to be. To apply, submit a brief essay titled: "What would I do if I were the Psychology moderator?"

🤣

So what, does the Politics section get moderated by undercover members of Congress or something? 😲
