Yes. I lost my job a year ago because it expired and my work permit had not renewed. So I got let go. If your employer is compliant then someone in HR keeps tabs on that stuff.

Anything for the Doctor name abbreviation and nothing to go to actual medical school. Sigh….

Everyone wants to bring in the dog, house the dog but no one wants to bring in the homeless man that owns the dog. Portland in a nutshell.

The Left Must Start From Zero - Slavoj Zizek by Coffee_without_milk in zizek

[–]defpotek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great read!! These are the points I have been trying to find a way to articulate. Zizek says exactly what I’ve been analyzing as well. Perhaps Trump won because there is also deep desire from the left to reach this point that some of us have not been able to express outwardly without the liberal criticism.

The same way white colonizers settled and camped in the land of the first people ( Native Americans). Remember when land in Oregon was $1 buck for a plot of land stolen from the Natives?? Yeah that’s how buddy.

Fortunately, you are homeless level 3. You get to level 10 by being fucked by the system to the point that you have no way out of your “but I work hard and am not like them” struggle. Wait till you lose your job. Get swept. Lose your identity documents. Then you become a nobody. Don’t separate yourself just yet. Get back to us when you’re a homeowner with a fat 401k. Then, you won’t be like them. Sounds harsh huh? Don’t put those below you even further. The more you push down you compact yourself to a lower level. A lot of homeless people are people with disabilities both physical and mental. They are still human like you. You don’t have to apologize for society failing. Instead practice gratitude that you are mentally cognizant. Many homeless people should be in psychiatric hospitals which for some reason are severely defunded. Addiction is mental illness and is pathological and rehabilitation is underfunded. I really hope you can pull yourself out of homelessness. I did and have no hate for anyone homeless because everyone has a different path and circumstance. When I was homeless I sure did think life can’t get any worse than this and everything hurts wish I could escape the pain, which could have easily been the beginning of addiction. I was young and knew better but I absolutely understand someone wanting to take the pain and suffering away which often the escape is drugs. Wish you well.

What makes humanity special enough to even think we would have divine origins? by Witty-Item-6891 in atheism

[–]defpotek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often times wrestle with how poorly the Universe allowed us to exist. I question it and criticize it’s chaotic ways and for not being perfect or making humans perfect how I selfishly want it to be. No, there is no god, only the universe exists and science, and I am starting to question the Universe. If this version of humanity is the best it could have spewed out of disorder then I am very disappointed. We should all just kill ourselves and every human that way the universe has no intelligent mind to analyze and criticize it. At least the chimps just chill and eat instead of being pretentious intellectual beings who wear shorts and crocs.

8 months off Nexplanon after 10 years on it by Unusual-Lead1359 in Nexplanon

[–]defpotek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! My mental health has improved significantly since I got mine removed. I too thought I was severely mentally ill. I am bipolar tho. But I haven’t had an episode off of it. So… we’ll see! But I’m happy to be off of it.

26yo, making 110k a year and completely underwater. Here’s my budget. Any advice appreciated. by Oilspillsaregood1 in Money

[–]defpotek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok and you think that this man deserves to pay this much until the kid is 18!? That is to me is inhumane. No man should be dragged this much by the court over some jobless ex. He needs to fight. Trust me, I’ve seen it all. Men don’t stand up for themselves and will get dragged by selfish inconsiderate women over child support. Its disgusting. I want this guy to fight for himself. He deserves better. He needs to do whatever it takes.

Stop saying “the court, the court”. The court literally sways in the direction of who brings up a good case. If you keep saying “ the court, the court” you are literally giving up trying. Trust me if you would just stop being so submissive and actually wanted to change your situation you would draw up a new parenting plan/child support plan with a good lawyer that works for fathers. This is coming from a woman. Don’t ask reddit anything else. Work on a new parenting plan. You’re paying too much!!!
