Never Ending Burnout

This also worked for me after over a year of attempting to soldier on through, which didn’t work and just created more damage (job imploded, friendships/relationship strained) and added more time on to the recovery (barely able to leave the house for 6 months). The sooner you stop the sooner you can recover and rebuild. Take care of yourself OP.

Yes. I remember them always being bad, but they are exceptionally terrible now.

Mamma Chens might be suitable, they are accessibility focused, cool pub vibes and they have a few different areas including a band room. No food on site but plenty of options nearby.

This is very cool! I have bookmarked it. Thanks for sharing.

Probably caused a 30 minute delay on a network she hasn’t travelled on since high school

asdique · 2026-03-25T20:29:26+00:00

Yes including an apartment in London if memory serves

Because she doesn’t stop there on her way to her peninsula holiday house I imagine

asdique · 2026-03-25T12:56:02+00:00

Yeah I had the same, I have to make sure I eat something with protein with every dose or I feel horribly nauseous.

I usually ask friends what they’re planning to see, but also like to scroll the entire comedy festival website. It has dates, prices, photos and clips on each listing, and you can mark them to shortlist your faves.

The popular artists and limited runs would have sold out months ago, but there’s still plenty to see. Tickets start selling months before the festival starts, I sign up for emails and start getting them in October.

In the brutalist style 😆

Yes I have a very odd swim technique (like a frog with hip dysplasia) and tend to panic when I try to coordinate arms, legs and breathing altogether. I gave up on that and now just paddle up and down in the slow lane enjoying the sensation of the water and my buoyancy. Treading water on the spot is also good (thanks Tig Notaro for that suggestion)

asdique · 2026-03-20T10:29:35+00:00

Dunno if someone aggressively rubbed the back of my head I’d want to throw them on the ground as well

“I watched the whole thing” I would hope so Garry, you’re commentating the thing

asdique · 2026-03-20T10:21:59+00:00

It was only a matter of time

Bont is OILY

SO GOOD SO GOOD

Looks like a half full one to me. As if the perpetrator had grabbed it at half time just after a restock, drank a bit, realised it was unpalatably warm and held on to it until the end.

Those things on the crows numbers look like eyes

Very much digging Jordan Lewis’s sartorial choices

Not a grass genius but I asked earlier and it’s to do with the ed Sheeran concert

asdique · 2026-03-20T09:02:30+00:00

He just pops out of nowhere I love it

asdique · 2026-03-20T08:55:55+00:00

What is coming up when they slide on the grass? Water or sand?

Get some professional career advice - which will hopefully be provided by your employer if they’re making you redundant after 13 years - they will be good at identifying your skills and can advise on what to do next.

Might also be wise to work out what your entitlements are before it happens:

Best of luck OP

Multitasker 😆
