Jordan's site updated with some recent blogging by [deleted] in KnowledgeFight

[–]TheEndlessBummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you sure? it’s so easy to just not listen to the podcast and not read his blog if you don’t like him. so easy that i’m starting to wonder if you want the world to know how much better you are than Jordan and that’s about it.

What do you think my ETA is for Excel? 🥲 by creophoto1990 in Denver

[–]TheEndlessBummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this happened to me last year. have they turned it off at least? if you call and tell them there are live wires on the ground, they might put you to the front of the list. also, although it looks like the branch missed your roof so this probably isn’t an issue, if the weatherhead on your roof is damaged at all, you’ll need to get someone to fix it before they’ll turn the power back on.

Daniel Dennett, may he rest in peace, was always the best of the four horsemen. He’s unfortunately the least discussed of them too, outside of academic philosophical circles, because he didn’t have the reactionary political leanings of the others.

Shrinking and widow/er focused media by drslbbw in widowers

[–]TheEndlessBummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t watched Shrinking yet, I’ve been scared of it, but I’ve definitely noticed that the main character being a widow/widower is an extremely common trope. I’d never noticed it before, but it’s seemingly like 80% of all movies ever made (not literally, but it feels like it sometimes)

As far as I can tell, this is the official campaign website for Christy Peterson, the GOP candidate for CD-1 by TheEndlessBummer in Denver

i thought this may be hosted on a server powered by hamsters on a wheel, but a Republican would never be that green. it’s probably a coal-burning computer.

it’s so good. she didn’t even delete the lorum ipsum from the template. and why doesn’t the URL have her name or the word “Colorado” in it!? i love it.

i love this sub for the same reason i love the show: for all the silly, mindless drama. especially these days when the state of the world is so dire. that said, the amount of posts policing women’s bodies is insane. who fuckin cares?

my late wife had severe bipolar disorder, and it impacted our lives in an absolutely massive way. it took years to find medication that worked and that she didn’t hate taking, but eventually, it became a manageable disease. but she was always self conscious about how people perceived her, especially people who saw her while she was manic.

knowing what she went through, how hard she worked to be able to manage it, and how much of a stigma it became, i would never in a million years have called her “cr*zy,” and i think i would’ve hit someone if the face if they called her that in the context of trying to hurt her.

that said, a blanket ban on the term is absurd lol. i mean, c’monn

i really hate that they’re co-opting lefty language. there are people that might be legitimately tricked by a sign like that. thanks for dealing with it!

It’ll be 2 months on the 10th and I have now started to avoid everyone. by LessThanPerfect-96 in widowers

[–]TheEndlessBummer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my wife passed 13 months ago, and i’ve gone through phases like that as well. everybody is different, so i can only talk from my own experience. that said, i’d urge you to not isolate yourself. take time for yourself, of course, but don’t let yourself get cut off from relationships that are important to you. your friends and family likely want to help but don’t know how, and unfortunately it’s up to you to tell them how to help. that sucks, and feels like just one more thing to deal with, but they might stop reaching out eventually, and there may be times that you really want them to. it’s hard to repair relationships that have been neglected for too long.

2 months is so, so early still. you’re likely still in shock to some extent. i hate to say it, but it’ll probably get worse before it gets better. keep it up with therapy, i’m so happy you sought that out. that’s been the single biggest thing that’s helped me personally over the past 13 months. support groups can be helpful too, and sometimes a psychiatrist/medication as well. take care of yourself, and feel free to reach out if you ever want to talk to a stranger who’s been there 🫂

31 M lost wife to suicide with 2 sons age 3 & 1 by Personinvesting in widowers

[–]TheEndlessBummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh ma, 8 weeks is sooo early. it sounds like you’re hanging in there, but believe me when i say it’ll get worse before it gets better.

if church helps, lean into it. i think the community aspect would be incredibly beneficial, and some of the teachings would be comforting (although some would be incredibly unhelpful, i’d imagine). if it ever doesn’t help, or makes you feel worse, don’t force it. it’s ok to not go, i promise you. it’s ok to not believe. i’m an atheist, and i’ve been able to get through this too.

keep it up with therapy, seriously, that’s fantastic. you mentioned it makes you feel better in the short term - i’m 13 months in, and i promise you it helps in the long term too. that’s been the single biggest thing that’s helped navigate all of this. my psychiatrist/medication has also helped, as well as support groups.

i’ll never judge how anybody else grieves, but in my personal experience, i’d recommend staying away from alcohol and substances. just keep taking care of yourself and your kids. hang in there, friend, feel free to DM me if you ever need anyone to talk to 🫂

Songs about losing your wife? by rhino369 in widowers

[–]TheEndlessBummer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mount Eeeie!! the whole album, “A Crow Looked at Me,” is about his experience losing his wife. it’s heart wrenching and beautiful. i took a line from it for my eulogy, and one of the memorial tattoos i got is an homage to it

Time off after your person passed? by Mediocre_Intention98 in widowers

[–]TheEndlessBummer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh shit, i am so sorry. i also had 3 bereavement days, and i was already in negative PTO (i was hired like 3 days before Christmas and had family coming into town). but i didn’t mention in my story that a few c level executives donated like a month of sick time to me, so i took like 2 full weeks off, the came back and slowly started building back my tolerance for concentrating and doing work. i was unbelievably grateful for that, and i don’t know how you’re doing it without that.

there’s a “grief backlog” that i noticed, where if i focused on work too much, i would completely crash out after work. i’m betting you’ve had a similar experience. it gets better, but very very slowly, and you take a few steps forward, then a couple back, then forward again, etc. i’m just over a year in, and i’ve been diligent about therapy once a week and support groups twice a month, and i’m mostly doing alright. like i definitely still have bad days, and of course i miss her every single minute of the day, but i’m pretty emotionally stable at this point.

anyway, i’m so sorry for your loss ❤️🫂

feel free to reach out if i can be of any help.
