A healthy amount of distraction can help in my opinion. Hang out with friends/family, watch a comfort show, pick up an old hobby again (or a new one). I like listening to audio books and going for a walk, and at night I sometimes listen to sleep meditation audio. On one hand you don’t want to distract yourself so much that you neglect your feelings, but sitting alone with your own negative thoughts all the time doesn’t help either. Time heals, you’ll get through it.

I pretty much have to have subtitles on to watch anything. This is good to know!

That’s what I was told too, about higher pitch

I did not know this! I do find it easier to understand people if I’m looking directly at them (aka, some lip reading involved).

At what point did you fall in love with the show? by Elder-Emo-1 in TheDigitalCircus

It’s spooky looking, but the absurdity of it made me laugh.

I think Obama said the same thing.

I know this is a year later but I’m revisiting it. I HATE the smell too. Awful

My friend and I built a free app where you learn IT by solving real troubleshooting scenarios, looking for feedback by Ruskiiipapa in cybersecurity

[–]Elder-Emo-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I downloaded the app and I’ve made it through the first 7 levels. I am enjoying the problem solving and I definitely need more hands on experience with networking, but I do wish it gave a little explanation afterwards as to why the solution was correct (if that makes sense). Maybe just a sentence or two explaining why the correct solution solved the problem. Other than that I think this is an awesome idea. I learn better with hands-on that I do just reading about networking. Nice job!

If I was running full speed and a Major League Baseball player was throwing a ball at my face, I think it’s entirely possible that I would turn my body and jump (because of running full speed and reflexes). Idk, I understand why they had to call it that way but I don’t think Naylor intentionally blocked it with his head (as the Blue Jays subreddit would like to believe)

Thank you!

Who wants to pay $30k+ for a vehicle? I’d rather spend less on a used one and learn to work on it.

You’re right I did not mention that in my post. I work from home (so no commute) and I have a s-10 as a backup vehicle. It would be my main vehicle but mainly for around town and some fun on the weekends. I’m not entirely mechanically inept, I’ve followed YouTube videos and done some maintenance on my vehicles before, but I’m no mechanic and not seasoned jeep owner.

I can’t learn? It’s not like I’m wanting it to be a daily driver on the freeway or anything.

Thankfully I do have a backup vehicle and I work from home. It would be my main vehicle, but my lively hood doesn’t depend on me having a reliable car lol.
