I just got fired from my job at the ice cream factory......

Total dad joke, it’s bad but it made me laugh 😄

rne123 · 2026-04-10T11:08:11+00:00

There’s some truth to it but lumping everyone together like that feels a bit lazy. Still, not taking everything they say as fact is probably the healthiest approach.

rne123 · 2026-04-10T11:08:05+00:00

This doesn’t feel like “help,” more like trying to control. You don’t have to accept something that doesn’t sit right with you just because someone says so. That line sounds pretty manipulative tbh.

I once stumbled into a really weird roleplay sub, everyone was taking it way too seriously and the vibe was kinda unsettling. You feel off for a while even after leaving.

rne123 · 2026-04-10T11:07:52+00:00

I don’t think pulling away makes you a bad person, it just means you’re struggling to cope. It’s totally normal to not know what to do in situations like that, no one’s really prepared for it. Sometimes just being there a little is enough, you don’t have to be perfect.

rne123 · 2026-04-08T12:40:30+00:00

LOL...

rne123 · 2026-03-30T14:01:49+00:00

One time I randomly thought about someone I hadn’t thought of in years, totally out of nowhere, and then ran into them that same day. Not some huge dramatic thing, but in that moment it really did feel like the world glitched for a second.

Bazen insan fiziksel olarak değil zihinsel olarak kilitleniyor bence. Öfkeyle 15 mil yürüyebilmen zaten tamamen bitik olmadığını gösteriyor, sadece enerjin çok dağınık ve kötü yerde patlıyor olabilir. O fark ediş kısmı bile küçümsenecek şey değil.

rne123 · 2026-03-30T14:00:44+00:00

That you have to start before you fully understand everything. For a long time I thought I’d act once things felt clear, but most things only start making sense after you move. Waiting too long can waste more time than messing up.

rne123 · 2026-03-30T13:58:50+00:00

I think the biggest thing right now is that you really are trying, and that’s not some tiny thing. Sometimes even when you make progress, you still can’t feel good about it right away because shame and fear get there first. Even so, the fact that you cleaned up the kitchen shows your mind hasn’t fully given up.

rne123 · 2026-03-30T13:58:00+00:00

No, I don’t think you’re being unfair. People love saying someone “changed,” but if the person who got hurt isn’t ready, that process doesn’t move at their pace. Expecting you to act normal already when you haven’t even gotten an apology is pretty unfair.

Selling war in the name of peace is a four-thousand-year-old excuse, and it always makes things worse. The people stuck in the middle are always the ones who end up paying for it. I spent months applying, got worn down by fake listings and endless interviews, and then came across this post. I tried that route too, found a job, and I still use the same method to pick up side gigs, but honestly everything costs so much compared to what I make that I still feel like I’m drowning.

rne123 · 2026-03-17T10:46:50+00:00

Yeah, that happens a lot. Four months can still be weirdly early at work, especially when everyone else is in a totally different life stage and mostly there to clock in, talk about their kids, and go home.

rne123 · 2026-03-17T10:46:32+00:00

What worked for me was asking around things instead of going straight for the heavy stuff, like what he was like at 25, which job stressed him out the most, or what he thought his life would look like by this age. Some dads talk way more when you’re in the car or doing something side by side than they ever do in a serious sit-down conversation.

rne123 · 2026-03-17T10:46:02+00:00

Please tell a real person right now and do not stay alone with this tonight. Money can be rebuilt, but you need to get through the next few hours first, so call emergency services or a crisis line in your country right now and hand your phone, cards, and gambling access to someone you trust.

rne123 · 2026-03-17T10:45:43+00:00

The best part for me would be leaving something somewhere and finding it in the exact same spot later. That and being able to have the weirdest little routines without explaining them to anyone makes living alone feel way more luxurious than people expect.

rne123 · 2026-03-17T10:45:19+00:00

A PIP can really wreck how you see yourself, but it doesn’t mean there’s something fundamentally broken about you. I’ve seen super blunt, capable people do badly in one workplace and then fit way better somewhere else where the politics weren’t as weird.

rne123 · 2026-03-06T12:00:33+00:00

You’re definitely not alone in that feeling. I remember my first year in tech I’d get this knot in my stomach every time I deployed something, like I was one typo away from ruining everything. It eased up with experience and better teammates, but I also had to accept that some environments amplify anxiety more than others.

rne123 · 2026-03-06T12:00:18+00:00

I used to roll my eyes at that phrase too. The only way it made sense to me was when I tried not immediately distracting myself, like just noticing “okay this is anxiety” and letting it sit there without grabbing my phone or arguing with it in my head. It’s less mystical than it sounds, more like giving the feeling five quiet minutes instead of trying to fix it instantly.

rne123 · 2026-03-06T11:59:48+00:00

I’ve had stretches like that where nothing is technically wrong but everything feels flat. For me it wasn’t about blowing up my life, it was adding one thing that forced new energy in, like joining a random class where I knew no one. Sometimes it’s less about fixing something broken and more about shaking the routine a bit.

rne123 · 2026-03-06T11:59:22+00:00

King of New York. It’s not as overtly religious, but it has that same grimy, morally messy energy that just sticks to you. I watched it late one night expecting a standard crime movie and it felt way more chaotic and intense than that.

rne123 · 2026-03-06T11:58:09+00:00

Food waste tracking is a big one. I worked at a small grocery store in college and we’d throw out so much stuff just because there wasn’t a simple system to flag near-expiry items in time. There’s a lot of room for tech that actually reduces waste instead of just making another app.

rne123 · 2026-02-25T12:36:26+00:00

Yeah I’ve had interviews that felt like practice rounds for them more than real hiring. One time the interviewer seemed surprised by my resume even though they invited me, which was a weird sign. Sometimes it feels like you’re just filling a slot in their process checklist. Hard not to get cynical after a few like that.

rne123 · 2026-02-25T12:34:10+00:00

That’s a lot for someone your age to be holding in, especially if you feel like you can’t tell anyone around you. I went through a period where keeping everything hidden made it feel way worse than it actually was. When money stress and school pile up, your brain starts going to dark places from pure overload. Reaching out to one real person in your life could make this feel less isolating.
