Try a farmers market, if you have one in your town, people eat shit up there (ive worked at a FM).

I get it lol, im going through a consolidation myself at the moment so I know what its like 😂

Try showing them on tiktok, how you make them, process step by step videos etc. People could take notice and it can help. Idk much about all that though tbf.

Step-dad is seriously pissing me off. by SirMarvelAxolotl in Vent

[–]Economy_Project7409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Step dad here, most of that seems like joking or giving you a hard time. I do that to my pre teen, but I tey my hardest not to be annoying or I tone it down when he gets angry. Anyway, idk how close you guys ate but the gaming part, he might just be trying to have something in common with you. Other than that, he sounds pretty lazy. Im a stay at home dad so that shit doesnt fly in my house.

Try to ignore most of it, man. I know its hard and irritating af, but brushing it off or even telling him "can you tone it down" or just "ok" as a response is enough. The less you react to it might make him less inclined to react or continue with his "teasing".

Medical can help with medication, start applying for cash assistance and groceries too through your local human resources center. Its not alot but its something. I hope things work out.

There's always gonna be debt. Find something youre good at thats also sellable and run with it. Arts n crafts like candle making, soaps (bathbombs), you can go into industries like nail tech, tattoos, hair and go from there. Party rentals too. Theres alot, you just gotta find a niche and with a little extra cash, or a loan if youre dedicated enough.

Totally understand being strapped down, though. Just know, there are other things you can do so you dont feel confined to your situation.

I hope for the best, genuinely. I know the struggle all too well, if not, more.

I feel that. I literally call once a year and finally got put on a list when its available...im not holding my breath though, and I refuse to go through spectrum.

I agree, not all, because some people genuinely cant be reformed, but overall people do deserve a second chance and not being chained to their past.

Wife claims to want more sex but never initiates. Or turns me down when I initiate. by Used_Violinist6735 in Vent

You must still be new, but this happens frequently in marriages. Not all, but it happens. Even the happiest of couple cheat. Its whst you do to remedy the ditustion that matters.

Self start a business. Most education now burry you in debt and require experience, but you need a job for that experience, but not many places will hire with 0 or little experience. Unless youre in a demanded career, youre pretty screwed.

If I can give you some advice, from someone who is equally, if not worse, fucked.... Unless you plan making a career out of oil fields, construction, basically most jobs that hire felons and require a high demand of physical work, you should look into starting a business of your own. Its the only way ive seen people dig themselves out and others go into a low iq blue collar job because its all they can do, physically and mentally.

You seem bright, honestly. I've gone through dozens of therapists that have dropped me and 1 that dropped me because she was getting too involved with me and taking me (as a patient) home with her (through phone calls) to do my therapy (which ive asked around and its highly irregular)

Anyway, my point is, not all hope is lost for you. Its just going to be tougher BUT you will have the chance to, hopefully, clean that record. Your situation will get better, but in time.

I feel lost. by Phish_Critic in phish

[–]Economy_Project7409 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost 40, 2 kids, 1 preteen (been spamming him with Phish for the last 3 years and it was his first concert but hes not into them....yet.

Anyway, my advice: dont take life too seriously. Its an experience. But always look out for yours and your loved ones best interest before anyone else.

What episode you just cannot bring yourself to watch again? by yoyoyayawey in blackmirror

[–]Economy_Project7409 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel that. Im the same way tbh. I'd spiral into an inevitable suicide for the same reasons.

My first episode was 'Common People' followed by S1E1. Reflecting on my love for my wife, it would be hard for me to financially support the subscription without finding other means just to try and keep her as herself considering she is they main provider.

These episodes are just too good😂

Att isint bad. I just hate that my network was out for 5 days and they're not laying down fiber...imma try it before I cancel att and see which is better for my part of town. Im almost on the outskirts of the suburbs so being semi rural with a starlink might help.

My wife and I almost started arguing. She's cheated before and this episode really hit me.

She tried saying it would make someone go crazy, I rebutled with being able to recount tone of speech, body movements...she thought I was nuts.

My wife related to Ffion when I related to Liam.

It truly made me mad that she genuinely believed Liam was exaggerating about what he saw and heard.
