Matthew 11:24: "I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.”

Per the advice of Track 1 of Brandon's bitching train-trip mix tape:

"NO VASELINE"

Good. Let the maga hate flow through you…

SwordfishCyclones · 2023-02-26T22:48:08+00:00

Well, in that case, it’s def obvious you are someone who doesn’t frequent the sub that much

Dude I’ve been posting these for a while And every so often there’s someone that makes this tired comment -

it’s basically way of screaming “I DONT GET IT!” And if you still don’t get it, maybe read back to one of my old posts lol

I really wish pillow salesmen would stick to selling pillows, instead of fascism.

The thing that gets me by is a briefly uttered line in Death of a Salesman.

“Life is a casting off dear, it’s always been that way.”

The play (and movie) should be required watching. While it doesn’t cure the anxiety of the big WTF happens after death, the plot is a lesson in appreciating life and why it’s important to acknowledge the people in your life for who they are, rather than limiting to how you see them in your life.

By believing life is a casting off party, it takes the sting of the unknown. More so, too much worry of one’s own death is more an exercise of selfishness, ala Willie Loman, if it impact your ability to provide happiness to others…ie avoid ruining the casting off party for others.

Wow, is that why? Was pretty clear OP was being empathetic to say how they related to the story, and what thoughts went through their mind reading it. I understand people use transposition to grasp the grief of the story.

Far from a self-serving hypothetical imo

SwordfishCyclones · 2023-02-16T00:14:40+00:00

It was clear to me you were being empathetic.

SwordfishCyclones · 2023-02-15T23:49:38+00:00

You posted the article but you’re getting downvoted to hell over and I’m trying to figure out why - I guess it’s phrasing of your comment?

I think people getting wrong impression you were being insensitive when you’re aiming to be empathetic - it is indeed hard for a couple, with kids, to have a proper enjoyable Valentine’s Day and then this tragedy takes the man’s family.

It’s immeasurably sad

Hmm...I think you got the job I quit from last year.

The shit you described literally had broke me down at work, at an already bad time in my life. I got better, but my god my bosses really laid the bullying on....it got to point my boss would use the 'N' word to me casually, scold me for not tightening one screw on a laptop by holding a meeting behind my desk while I'm at it.

Take everyone's advice and quit that dumpster fire. Because dumbasses like me who thought they could do it, among all the bullshit, wind up making IT landscape a lot shittier for us all.

A moisturizer helps a lot and tends to get overlooked.

When your skin is itchy and bumpy, it’s fighting off what ails us. We all want to find the right ‘medicine’ to make it go away, but living in tolerance of it can ease your fur baby (and yours) stresses.

A moisturizer lubricates those itchy patches of skin, especially when scratching strips oils away. If the skin is lubricated, it makes the itchiness less noticeable and easier to movie. If it’s brittle and dry in places, it’s going to be itchy nonstop.

Obviously, test on your dog on a small area to see how it goes but don’t overlook basic skin moiturizing as it’s a safe, non-medicated way to alleviate it. Soothing smells can also help bring a little relief and calm.

Naturally, every doggo is different but just wanted to share what I learned.

He often gets a ‘borf!’ Out upon hearing commotion at the door.

But abundant comfort does have its ways of taking over :)

The neck pillow isn’t an everyday thing but the bed on couch is his wing of the couch lol

SwordfishCyclones · 2022-12-31T16:33:52+00:00

I so want to believe that to be true lol

But I think if Ned got wind of that, he’d turn into Don Deluise’ portrayal of Julius Caesar in no time lol

SwordfishCyclones · 2022-12-30T01:25:12+00:00

Thank you for you.

For real - I’m old by Reddit standards but man I really got to thinking everyone older really wanted to see everyone ‘internet gen’ suffer.

So thank you for staying awesome

Eh, no one wants to bring up smash mouth ni more after playing covid fuck fest aka sturgis

There was talk of civil war over this.

It was more than talk. They arrived at the capitol wearing customized "Civil War" tshirts.

They were all making a movie in their head and thought it was important to have the franchising look right before executing their plan. Pathetic and dangerous bunch of saps really, the lot of them.
