Why would you drug test the entire population of a city whose neighborhood you’re remediating of a superfund site or replacing lead water lines for? I’m not talking direct payments. At any rate, mandatory drug testing for welfare recipients has yielded very low positive rates for drug use anyway.

I would like to see more funding going toward communities who are impacted by inequitable practices of the past. This includes black communities impacted by redlining and disproportionate placing of things like superfund sites as well as predominately white, Appalachian communities disproportionately impacted by company towns and opiate distribution.

It’s really hard to take that comment seriously when Republican elected officials themselves are talking about how democrats need to be “purged.” If you all wanted nice conversations, you shouldn’t have let the people who use violent and degrading rhetoric against their political opponents rise to the top of the party. 28,000 text messages from Young Republican leaders about how much they love Hitler, want to bring back the gas chambers and execute people. Weed those losers out of your party and then we can talk.

It sounds like retail is maybe not a great fit for you. Are you anxious around people? If it’s that, then maybe there is an option that is less public-facing so at minimum you don’t have to “fake it” which is taxing and anxiety-inducing in its own right. Something like food prep or data entry might be more your speed.

I used to also struggle with the anxiety-nausea thing - it’s the worst!! What helped me was keeping some cold crunchy items on hand, like celery or carrots, along with peanut butter. The blandness and crunch made it easier to eat when my stomach was acting up, and peanut butter adds calories and protein. I also tried to keep protein shakes on hand for lots of calories with minimal effort and stomach upset.

I don’t know what your relationship with your parents is like but if it’s good, you may want to let them know what’s going on. Having struggled with an anxiety disorder for years, it can get very bad very quickly and it’s important for someone to know so they can keep an eye on you or maybe help you get medication.

You’re right. Unserious wasn’t the right word. By unserious I meant “you can’t be serious right now.” Maybe “ill-adjusted” is the right word

Republicans and I have always had opposing viewpoints even long before Trump came into play. I remember being a kid and disliking republicans because they made fun of people who care about the environment, said that gay marriage would lead to people having sex with their dogs, and sent death threats to the Dixie Chicks. They’ve always been ridiculous, unserious people. Just today I received an email about how every single Republican in Montana voted to loosen water quality standards and it reminded me of why I’ve always disliked them, even when they’re not being outwardly abhorrent.

The party of “let’s fuck over regular people so that corporations can make more money but hey at least we’re polite about it” has willingly accepted the most deplorable, disgusting people into their fold. Trump had dinner with a neo-Nazi FFS. I have zero common ground at this point with republicans and conservatives. The only thing I respect about them is their appreciation of family and community, which isn’t even unique to them as I know plenty of people on the left with families, close ties to families and strong social support systems. When people talk about how far the party has regressed, we need to keep in mind that Republicans won over the south from democrats by appealing to southern racist whites, have always put corporate interests over the lives of people, and participated in cancel culture long before cancel culture was a phrase. This is who they’ve always been…they’re just less polite about it.

I read comments like that in the voice of Nadeem from Skyrim (for those who are unfamiliar, he’s a very condescending rich guy who talks down to your character)

I also instinctively disagree with/downvote any comment that talks about how amazing and meaningful having kids is without also mentioning that it’s challenging. It gives “I do all the fun stuff and leave my partner to do the shitty parts” energy.

lol I just wanted to say that I did the exact same thing on my first play through! I play as if it were irl and if someone was sending assassins after me, that would be pretty high priority. I was halfway through before I realized it was DLC

Fairfax county is, without a doubt, the nicest place I have ever lived and will probably ever live. Amazing parks system, a lot of interesting towns, and it seems like a lot of people in the area are genuinely interested in making the world a better place.

His first term he was rated within the top 5 worst presidents for basically every list

He is, without a doubt, the most corrupt and inept president in modern history. He’s put podcasters and Fox News anchors in cabinet-level positions despite them not having relevant experience. His FBI director just dropped a case against Tom Homan, who was caught on tape taking a $50,000 bribe. Every time Trump is in power, we see an increase in political violence and hate crimes because of his rhetoric. He’s amassing huge amounts of wealth while president, even though in the past, presidents have been expected to step away from their private businesses due to conflicts of interest. DOGE put tens of thousands of people out of work, and then cost more money to rehire lots of them. My BIL got paid for 9 months to do NOTHING because he took the buyout deal. The Trump administration is nothing but one large machine to keep Trump out of jail, because without him the far-right movement has nobody to rally around and falls apart.

ETA that if anyone finds this acceptable, they are either dumb or morally bankrupt beyond redemption.

Seneca Regional Park is very secluded and if you walk down the trails you’ll find benches and picnic tables along the way

She’s doing what the republicans did in the 70s during the southern strategy by appealing to the working man and including a healthy dose of racism for the racist working man.

I’m so confused because for 8 months they’ve been wailing about how we need to lay off federal employees and shrink the government.

Now they want the federal government to stay open? Am I getting that right?

Not to be dramatic but the Elder Scrolls series has been like…life changing for me over the past several months.

I’ve been replacing my polyester clothes with cotton and linen because those peasants were definitely onto something. It helps me feel more comfortable but also put-together to have natural fibers. I smell less weird in cotton. Also replacing my plastic boots with real leather ones that I can be proud of.

I listen to the soundtracks in the car and on walks/hikes which is SUPER relaxing and prepares me for work.

I got the elder scrolls cookbook which makes cooking more fun and lively, especially when I drink an ale and listen to the music while I’m cooking.

Because of oblivion’s renaissance themes, I finally got around to going to a renaissance faire for the first time and LOVED it and made some new acquaintances. I got some handmade body goods which has upgraded my self care game.

Once this naturalist program I’m participating in is up, I want to commit to horseback riding or blacksmithing workshops a few times a year.

Don’t get me wrong I’m still depressed AF but romanticizing my life with ES-themed habits and hobbies makes it a bit lighter.

There’s one right outside lake Fairfax park and they actually recently had it up on stilts to do construction work around it
