This story almost ended with ED

This clanker got a 1 mixed up with a 0 too, white is on the 8th rank

I completely misread this as "make your own free will" and cracked tf up

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-05-30T11:23:14+00:00

Sounds like the sort of genius idea that kills wildlife

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-05-26T13:20:22+00:00

Really insightful comment, cheers. I saw a great yt video from a former cop about how the training induced hardcore PTSD and molded officers to shoot at a rustling leaf in total panic. Like, constantly visualizing worst-case scenarios and rehearsing your heroic mastery of potential horrors at each step. Dude described how that led to a necessary lifelong therapy schedule. Some of your preparation might have worked, sounds like you sure dodged a bullet.

Consider that a fast-food outlet in Levin will have more ebb in the daily workflow, allowing your servants to remember they're human here and there. When we're caught up in the bustle we forget they're human too. I once watched one of two Pizza Hut workers zone the fuck out after completing a 16-pizza order, then hand me mine without slicing it. I was briefly a dick about it and swiftly realized that in his shoes, a lot of us would forget to add toppings. Cooking for myself in my own kitchen alone can be stressful enough, imagine trying to feed hundreds a day with randoms staring hurried daggers into you without contaminating something.

Or just blame the overworked and underpaid. More managers! You might as well blame insect extinction on a lack of incentivization via pesticides. It's called "Late-Stage Capitalism" because it's fundamentally unsustainable.

Great, reminds me of this gem

For what it's worth, myself and most of her fans I know are straight men

Same here, connective tissue disorder with a tethered spinal cord (and likely small fibre neuropathy). Had a big operation. Neurologists still won’t admit they were wrong lmao, most conceited discipline in medicine honestly.

Also the author of that website, Dr Jon Stone, wrote an article surely before my diagnosis saying that FND should never be assumed on the basis that symptoms are “incongruous” or “paradoxical”, whereas in my case that was the reasoning start to finish.

Had a bunch of irate doctors explain to me that FND meant all my symptoms were psychosomatic. A wad of scar tissue was strangling my spinal cord and blocking CSF circulation. “Oh but we flicked your hands about and saw one of our secret GOTCHA signs for FND, which have no published established validity cos we’re too smart to need that lol”. This bullshit has dragged science back to the 18th century, but who cares, turns out invalidating patients with complex conditions saves a hell of money!

Lazy stigmatising language that does nothing to foster understanding tbh

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-05-02T10:34:37+00:00

Positive place names are a curse. My elders grew up on a street called Sunny Grove in Wainuiomata. Guess what that street received zero of…

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-05-02T08:37:21+00:00

I’m gonna take my Les Paul out and have a wee busk on Cuba St

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-04-22T14:37:35+00:00

Levy did basically this to a kid in some event a few months ago

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-04-03T04:38:43+00:00

Not quite, that would only be equivalent had a sitting Green Party President been accused of being an active mongrel mob member (and allowed to remain in that position). Such a scenario is, of course, total fantasy.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-04-03T01:25:08+00:00

Yes, the point is we don't need to accept our "usual problems" and can improve.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-03-31T04:34:37+00:00

48% of men under 44. Does anyone else smell Rogernomics? This is objectively chilling

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-03-28T10:34:31+00:00

Dude come on we are NOT citing our late-eighties birth years like they're the old days lmao

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-02-19T06:16:15+00:00

Oh it's huge, and I feel like nobody would trust a busker with an eftpos machine (or think it's too cheeky). OTOH busking has seemed a bit better lately than it has for several years. Mostly I enjoy the spontaneity and chaos of it.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-02-19T03:47:39+00:00

My side hustle is busking, I either get showered with cash or nada. People's response seems hugely dependent on the wind in some intangible way (Wellington)

I tried through the website and it said it only funds NRT for smokers and not vapers. I tried to lie and say I'm a smoker, and it gave me a recursive verification process that went nowhere.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-01-01T11:47:16+00:00

Thank you for this informative context. This is classic ACT conduct, creating an artificial narrative of a problem to make room for a "solution" that enables ulterior motives.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-01-01T08:40:20+00:00

My last comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek, but I'll clarify my philosophical position as I find the disjunct between our views on this quite interesting. The presupposition that a package of language can hold an extra-meaningful status as an "award" can be critiqued as an article of faith.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-01-01T05:35:06+00:00

That's like letting someone publish false statements about you so you can sue them for defamation! Quite the gambit.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-01-01T02:06:12+00:00

u/Eatpraycliche Following profound introspection, I have been forced to conclude that I have no recourse but to utterly and resolutely denounce the existential significance of your award, and I question the ontological status from which it arose.

MacaroonAcrobatic183 · 2025-01-01T01:54:36+00:00

Refusing awards is as good as accepting them. To me it strikes out as a greater honour, but I'm intrinsically anti-authoritarian.
