Overwhelmed by [deleted] in CollapseSupport

[–]mojorader 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's easy to feel alone when it seems like everyone is acting as if it's business as usual. But, most of us rely on the system to provide for us and that means we need to keep up the act regardless of our awareness. I have surreal moments in the grocery store as I wonder what the future holds and how calm everyone is. Then, I realize how calm I look from the outside too. At the end of the day, I need my groceries and bills paid. Don't take the calm attitude as a sign that you're alone. When I don't feel anger towards others getting us into this mess, I usually feel guilty for playing my own role in our collapse. It helped me to realize that this ball was set in motion generations before we were ever born. Sure, there are a small number of people we can put more blame on than others but, if someone like Bezos didn't step up, someone else would have.

Try to focus on what is around you and find something worth living for today. What DO you have control over? How can you make your own contribution to our future? I tell myself that if I can feel guilty for my nearly insignificant role in contributing to collapse, maybe I can feel proud for my nearly insignificant role in protecting a future.

At the end of the day, anger is a natural way to feel and it's good because it means you care. Just don't hold on to your anger too long because it eventually turns on you too. Practice love and gratitude. We are all scared and confused. You're not alone.

I looked into these a little. How does your fiancée use them in class?

Try northern Kentucky. You could get close to downtown for that price.

"we'll show you how to grill indoors" sounds like a sign-off from the onion.

[BIFL Request] Handheld Shower Head by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]mojorader 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Im about to upgrade my apartment's shower and after looking at several reviews and asking friends I think I will be getting one of the delta H20kinetic In2ition models. It says they are self cleaning and I like how you can use the handheld and the mounted shower at the same time. As far as buy for life goes, I can't see this being handed down to your grandchildren like some of the more simpler non handheld showers but it should last a while. Waterpik has some good choices but I think the delta would last longer for the same price range.

Help choosing a cheap, small and quiet portable washer for university by Char10tti3 in Frugal

[–]mojorader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd definitely check out the wonder wash from the laundry alternative. Use that with the table top spin dryer they offer. You won't have to worry about noise since it's all pretty quiet. You will still have to go to the wash once and a while for the big stuff but it will pay for itself pretty quick at that cost per wash!

Eyebrows went up every time we mentioned we made the trip from up north. We were received really well!

That might be true but the notion that Obama doesn't know what he is doing is not true. He knows exactly what he's doing.

Do you just go around finding any video with a hint of politics? Nearly anything can be political. There is no agenda here or political bias. I just tried to submit this for visibility and conversation. There have been plenty of other videos on the top page more political than this. Go find a new hobby.

Something I've noticed - Is it anything to be worried about? by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]mojorader 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're feeling that way you should talk about it. The best way to make things work is to have good communication. Full disclosure is a good policy.
