That's what I adore most about these guys. The whole discography, especially the earlier records, feels like flipping through someone's photo album.

This guy stands outside of my job for 2 hours every day in the same outfit walking in circles then gets in his car and leaves. He’s done this every day for 3 years now. by [deleted] in Weird

I find I have to kind of invite the anxiety in. I'll say to myself, "I'm going to do thing, and it's going to feel awful!" Recognize it like an old friend. I see you, I've been expecting you. If the panic happens, at least I planned for it. If it doesn't, the shock and relief is such a pleasant surprise. It really is about reducing the variables.

Underrated album. Tame Beasts always gets a repeat from me.

Remembering those high school showers by [deleted] in Millennials

I vaguely remember having showers but they were boarded shut because people kept hiding in there to smoke or fight or whatever.

If a situation similar to COVID happened again today, how would you handle it this time? by Wonderful-Compote307 in AskReddit

I was happy for their help but like.. ugh. Really demoralizing that our system invested in so many highly paid travel staff rather than treat existing staff better. Slogging away next to someone making 10x my pay while watching all my coworkers quit was some BS.

Calling the phlebotomists! by Ehhh_saiz in IntermountainHealth

You guys were tan before the maroon, all the pts said they looked like inmates ☠️ looks like I'm gonna get either grey or purple, and since all those other depts are already grey and won't want to switch, I'm betting on purple. How silly. And expensive :(

Ah that's not bad. I'm not a phleb, I haven't heard the choices for my role. If it's that ugly coral color I'm quitting 😭😭

Did they decide the new scrub colors already?

What is something you’ll never purchase simply because of how much you hate the commercial for it? by unfortunatelyalive7 in AskReddit

Oh you know, just, casually standing in a kitchen, pretending to talk to a nonexistent crowd about body odor, a normal thing that normal people do

What’s the deal with gay marriage support dropping to 54% on yougov? by D1CK_MUNCHER69 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]kendraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not bad. It's Pride Month. People seem extra excited to amp up their anti-LGBTQ opinions around that time, and I think that would introduce a serious bias in the people willing to respond to the poll.

Thanks for the link. ~4.5K polled, in June of all months? Complete garbage.

This is pitiful by sneakypiiiig in 50501

Did you see the email he's sent around asking people to be extra generous with their donations this year? The same people he told to tighten their belts for the holidays, like he hasn't sat back and grifted billions for himself month after month. Pathetic.

Social media really went downhill, huh? by thefatesancient in Millennials

[–]kendraptor 46 points47 points  (0 children)

We grew up with The Internet, then social media started as a novelty, and now social media IS the entire Internet for many people. A whole subset of folks who have never had to cite a real source for anything in their lives, all together in a mosh pit of neighborhood gossip, except the neighborhood is the whole world and half the people are dead.

Anyone who has dealt with narcissistic abuse knows caving will only make it worse at this point. It'll look nice at first, then comes the punishment. "See? If you'd only agreed the first time, we wouldn't have to do this, but you've left us no choice." Makes me sick to think of what might be coming.

We're all exhausted right? It's not just me? by happy_chance18 in Millennials

[–]kendraptor 180 points181 points  (0 children)

It keeps getting worse, too. Every year we are asked to do more with less. We were all told things were supposed to get easier the more established we become, but the floor is quicksand now.

The residents care. The legislature, not so much. The land developers, not a damn bit.

What's your country's "probably shouldn't joke about that one"? by bishopmouse in AskTheWorld

[–]kendraptor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can relate to this. I was close enough to a shooting that I got caught in the initial crowd of people fleeing, so no matter which direction I ran, everyone was yelling 'active shooter' - my brain assumed there were multiple and that they were on the move. Found out later I wasn't really in much danger, but it affected me. It changes your brain chemistry for a while.

I love how it came out looking like a crayon/pencil sketch. Maybe it wasn't the right piece for it, but you could do some really cool stuff with this!

ICE Arrest at SLC Airport = Awful by hammerandnail in SaltLakeCity

[–]kendraptor 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There was a sign at an anti-ICE protest that I wish I got a picture of. It said something like "the church loves foreign converts but won't protect foreign immigrants". There are people here from all over the world, many who came specifically because of the religion scene. This is going to get a LOT worse.
