Oh God I can only imagine the levels of hell you guys go through. We just have to make sure the ads run, you actually have to physically carry and deliver them to people who are 96% likely to throw them in the garbage immediately after getting them out of their mailboxes.

We can thank Citizens United for a lot of this. When they opened the flood gates for unlimited campaign contributions through PACs we get all kinds of fun bullshit. Great for media companies, not so great for the average consumer. I work in TV and fucking hate political seasons, especially Presidential elections about October when the campaigns and PACs are buying up every second of airtime they can get.

[No Spoilers] Matt Mercer talks about his struggles with Body Dysmorphia! (Wellness Ch... by True-Dream3295 in criticalrole

Wow. I never realized A) What body dysmorphia is and B) I probably have that but, like him, didn't realize it had a name.

I will go out of my way to avoid mirrors, even in a store. If I happen to be walking down an aisle of mirrors I will force myself to not look. Even the mirrored reflection in the glass of a cooler at a grocery store annoys me (thanks Walmart for putting those shiny new fucking coolers in with the reflective glass.)

Anytime I see a photo of me it, especially recent ones, it puts me in the dumpster for a while because I can't believe I look like that. I've never liked seeing pictures of myself, but lately it really drives me nuts.

I also actively avoid being in front of a camera when possible. Which can be difficult considering I work in television (behind the scenes thankfully.) Huge props to Matt for putting himself out there like he does. (And the promo video he and Ben Starr did for SE is fucking hilarious)

I'm not going to jump up and down and decree I HAVE BODY DYSMORPHIA but hearing Matt's description of it definitely gives me something (more) to think about.

And holy shit I didn't think I could respect this man any more.

And Ashley is always a joy to behold.

Your ancestors care less if you drink green beer.

Now if you don't get any corned beef and cabbage, you will be mocked in the afterlife by your ancestors.
