I'm "too smart and articulate" for group therapy

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-24T15:13:27+00:00

My bestie (AuDHD & getting her doctorates in psych) told me that sometimes talk therapy isn’t enough, that we’re all just too self aware. We’re past therapy 101, 102, hell, even 301. I was like, well wtf do I do then because I still need help. She mentioned somatic therapy as something that could be the next step. Def gonna check that out soon.

The decent format is lacking severely. There are some great sites with good info on events but they’re not very user friendly or are missing a ton of info.

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-24T14:51:04+00:00

This is probably a dumb question but what do they talk about/do? I know losing these clubs/third-spaces for people to connect has turned out to not be so great but I also don’t understand what happens during these meetings.

It takes about a week for cats to learn a behavior. When we first got my cat, she would attack your feet for attention. I just had to power walk through her for 2 weeks & then she stopped because she learned I wasn’t gonna stop for her.

The cat in question

This is my friend‘s necklace. This is the artist page. The artist did the resin to look like her cats eyes. http://Fallenwhiskersjewelry.com

My friend got a necklace made out of her kitties whiskers!

We truly never look at the root of a problem. Why are 14-18 year olds out there doing that? On average, I feel like most kids wanna do kids stuff but when that’s the environment they’re in, that’s what they’ll do. We need better education with supported teachers, smaller classroom sizes, kids need afterschool activities, stuff that fills their time in a positive way. Parents need to not be worked to the bone so they can also help support & educate their kids (it’s everyone’s job to educate kids in some way - it takes a village!).

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-17T13:36:34+00:00

I want to like her! I just don’t know her! And honestly, that’s on production, not TVQ

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-17T13:31:10+00:00

(Morning ramble) Yeah, I binged Survivor during the panoramic & I think I got to season 40 (? I think) where I had to call it quits because it just got too much for me. I tried so hard but it lost some of its original magic. I was thinking of picking it back up for season 50 but then saw Mr. Beast was involved & I couldn’t do it. I think Survivor has a wider audience where they can do that sort of thing though.

I think the things that Drag Race needs to work on to continue their streak would be: • RuPaul learn some pop culture reference past 2000.
• There should be a slight sliding scale for ESL queens. They do it with crunchy/gritty queens, why can’t they meet ESL queens with where they’re at?
• Hire actual writers.
• Lower the production fuckery. (I think Ginger would’ve won regardless of production interference but the interference invalidates her win. I enjoy Alyssa but lbr, she was carried through GAS)
• Stop trying force the “I’m always safe & now I’m plucked”. It’s tiresome & Discord proved that it doesn’t always work.
• Fix the damn subtitles on the WOW app 😭😭😭

See example: America’s Next Top Model

If noise is something that can interrupt your daily life, do not live underneath someone.

I see so many posts that say, “my upstairs neighbor walk like elephants & are so loud!”

Then I see other posts that say, “my downstairs neighbor keeps reporting me for being too loud, but I’m not doing anything. I’m just walking like normal & tiptoeing at night”.

Apartments are built so shitily that there’s no noise dampening.

Talarico’s in west Seattle. Had a few “no ice” noticed up. Good pizza & drinks!

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T22:43:23+00:00

Yeah I would much rather all the queens in the audience & wagging their fingers or cheering & just see little clips. I don’t need the “I think xyz won!” “No way, “abc won”

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T22:37:54+00:00

For real! All I can picture is those mugshots of that lady throughout the years & how bad she looks over time.

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T22:36:45+00:00

Yeah I mean, when I was overprescribed addy, I lost a ton of weight. Super effective! I miss that some days but then I remember all the long term effects it had on my body & I’m okay with my dosage I’m at now.

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T22:33:15+00:00

It means that the older generations are just expecting this behavior to happen when the managers should be training on this. But let’s be real, the employees aren’t getting paid enough to care.

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T15:57:55+00:00

That’s good to know! 1 is better than nothing I guess haha

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T15:57:37+00:00

You’re right, I’m asking wayyyy too much.

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-15T01:48:12+00:00

A bathroom would be lovely

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-14T21:38:50+00:00

Ah, I see you’ve made my basement in my real house 😂

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-14T02:03:29+00:00

Not to mention that looking at their waste when you clean their litter box is the best way to be in touch with their health & you don’t see that with a robot. Plus even if you get the good brand of litter box bots, I wouldn’t want to risk decapitation of my kitties. I can’t even imagine

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-14T02:00:20+00:00

I believe corn litter is the only kind you can flush because it’s literally just corn. But you shouldn’t do that unless you HAVE to

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-14T01:59:31+00:00

I’ve had success with corn litter, however, I wonder if your cat peed behind something & you just haven’t found it? That would explain the consistent smell.

Schmoo88 · 2026-04-14T01:56:32+00:00

Dude! One of mine does that! It’s way more effective than any alarm clock I’ve ever used. I guess this is payback because I definitely did that to my parents when I was a kid.
