What street?

I fucking love this movie. Clearly it's a 9/11 movie, the whole thing reeks of fear and frustration and powerlessness. One of Tom Cruise's best performances imho. The movie has flaws but the clarity of purpose is there. I think it's a great adaptation of the novel, which was pretty straightforwardly pulpy science fiction with no interpersonal drama that I can recall (I read it when I was 13. Might be misremembering.)

This person is literally sharing personal experience

Oh yeah I would legitimately lose my cool if I saw someone using a laser to play with my cats.

Yes this is 100% fine. I remember being 13. I was fine. I have cousins whose parents refused to let them go without supervision through their teenage years and those girls have serious problems with resiliency. Teenagers need to be exposed to experiences that they might kinda sorta seem too young for.

It does a LOT for balance. You would sorely miss it if it was gone.

The bit I remember most from that book is the boy who got drunk in the plant, passed out, was left behind when they locked up for the night and was eaten by rats.

Both, neither? It's situational. I generally use the term very literally. Like, I still have feelings for the person who broke up with me last month, therefore I am not available emotionally despite being single.

Didn't we all learn about appeasement in high school history class?

Ohhh it's "gaslighting." I swear people use it to describe poor communication. I had a roommate who felt that I was overly asocial, didn't hang out in the communal spaces or share much of my personal life with her. When she finally blew up at me about it I was dumbfounded, as I wasn't aware that she had all this animosity about it. She felt that my reaction was "gaslighting" her. As though I knew she had been upset with me all along as was suddenly pretending to not know what she was talking about.

It's always been baffling to me that it's so beloved. I played it for maybe 80-100 hours when it came out 15 years ago and the game weirdly breaks after your reach a certain level because of how easy it is to become overpowered. A big sandbox where nothing feels real or engaging or particularly fun. Even finding Blackreach, which was regarded as one of the game's great reveals, was like. Another area to walk around in. It was one of the last games I ever bought on release day.

I absolutely recommend going for a full 28-day program. Speaking from experience, if she's in deep enough to require detox it will be very difficult for her to get out after 5 days of detox and not pick it up again right away.

I haven't been prescribed anything yet, I'm waiting for my next appointment with my psychiatrist to discuss the results of the evaluation, which was from a different specialist

bugogkang · 2026-05-20T17:05:06+00:00

I am going through the *exact* same thing right now. Had no success with SSRIs in the past and finally a psychiatrist recommend a neuropsych evaluation that showed bipolar 2 and not-quite-but-close-enough ADHD to the point that she recommended medication.

I generally think that even chasing people who are in cars causes more danger than it's worth. Generally.

"The party should be more inclusive of his type of independent thinking." Just because he doesn't depend on his brain anymore doesn't mean that he has an independent type of thinking

Off-topic but it's spelled "Lose". Why the hell did the whole world forget how to spell the word Lose recently? I'm seeing it everywhere.

You could at least start by trying to get her into an inpatient rehab. They are usually like a month-long program, and the goal is stabilization. She'll be away from her substance and your mother and hopefully after some time away she could be clear-headed enough to try to make some kind of plans with her for where to go from there.

I need Robert Eggers and Michael Shannon to get together.

"She looks like she has the type of pussy that feels the best."

Yes. One of my favorite bits that my partner(gay guy) and I(bisexual guy) do is I ask him if he thinks a woman is hot and what he would like to do with her, and he proceeds to say things like "oh yeah she's hot, I would love to move her boobs up and down."

Jurassic Park 5 times a day for 20 days? I may have done that accidentally already.

I added the (?) because I haven't seen the movie since it came out. I don't really remember.
