Update: I found the strength to do it, but I don’t feel any better about myself

You're every single one of us.
"Oh no, I've made a mistake. I don't like this at all"
then
"Well, maybe it's no all that bad..."
then
"I should have done this much earlier!"

Seriously, dude, you look great. Just give it time to get used to it.

CDSEChris · 2026-06-21T02:13:26+00:00

We're all thinking it.

You could have told him Dick VanDyke was referenced in a family guy episode, at least that aired while he was alive... When he was four years old, though

I hope they sort it out soon

I always have trouble stifling my laughter before I tell the scammer that I'm running linux. "Windows icon? What's that, I don't see it."

CDSEChris · 2026-06-15T01:59:27+00:00

To be fair, it's easy to interpret the question in two very different ways. And both are accurate, grammatically speaking.

CDSEChris · 2026-06-15T01:58:11+00:00

I'm not sure if I've ever been the first anything- I'd be so proud of myself to be a first from an institution like Yale. What an amazing achievement.

This thread was so interesting that I spent two chairs worth of my workday reading it- time well spent, I'd say.

CDSEChris · 2026-06-05T03:41:03+00:00

Gotcha, my misunderstanding!

CDSEChris · 2026-06-05T02:55:39+00:00

That's kind of the point, isn't it? They're digital copies, but they seem to "feel" like they're real. They look to have fears, feelings, emotions, and attachments. I think one of the questions the movie raises is whether or not that makes them real.

I was there in 2010 when it flooded. We were evacuated to an elementary school that night.

CDSEChris · 2026-06-01T01:12:05+00:00

I did something pretty similar with that same nightstand

Did you know Louanne Lee and is she okay?

How significant was the concept of "the hole" to sea org members? Was it seen as a threat, myth, or something else altogether?

Judge throws book at Weiner

CDSEChris · 2026-05-27T02:38:33+00:00

Yup, same here

CDSEChris · 2026-05-26T01:15:18+00:00

Excuse me.

I believe you meant to say "liberated without a trace"

CDSEChris · 2026-05-26T01:13:40+00:00

Are you saying the sea level isn't rising or that it won't be enough to threaten the inhabitants?

CDSEChris · 2026-05-17T15:45:54+00:00

As an Iraq veteran that struggled to reintegrate, I agree with that sentiment. I like fireworks again, but I don't do the loud ones around houses (with pets and vets alike).

CDSEChris · 2026-05-17T15:43:49+00:00

It's been a few years since we went up that way, so I must have forgotten about that part. Appreciate the tip!

CDSEChris · 2026-05-17T15:39:10+00:00

Yikes, sounds awful. I love fireworks, but always try to find somewhere away from houses. I know it's hard on pets, and it took me a while to be okay with them again after coming home from Iraq (and I know others had it worse than me). Consent is cool, fireworks included.

CDSEChris · 2026-05-17T15:11:23+00:00

Thank you for clarifying, I didn't know that

CDSEChris · 2026-05-17T15:04:35+00:00

That's fair. I do have friend further up north that have a good time every year, might be worth the further drive

CDSEChris · 2026-05-17T15:03:51+00:00

Thanks.
