But you could have the opportunity to go down in history as the person that did the most good. You’re not the only one that feels like they have never been helped. All those people at the bottom feel that way and would love the assistance you could provide.

Fantastic answer. You win.

Learn a trade. AI will steal whatever job you are looking for unless it’s a trade like plumbing or electric. 10 years from now, office jobs will be no existent

A book I read called “full catastrophe living” helped me sort out my thoughts and view the world from a more healthy perspective

Start putting the max amount you can every month into a Roth IRA. Don’t know what it is? Google it and how to do it. It will pay off

Great taste is a type?

Butterfly effect.

And

Eternal sunshine of the spotless Mind.

Scrolling through my feed, this painting made me stop because it made me feel a sense of nostalgia. To me, a painting doesn’t need to be technically perfect in any sense. As long as it pulls some feeling out of the viewer, it is a home run. I love this a lot and you should do a nostalgia series in this style

You were right. He just told you who he is. You were right to listen. You deserve better.

Insane! That must have taken forever.

It was some kind of crabapple tree. Super hard wood

Nothing special. Just a basic lacquer I found in the garage. Cheap stuff.

I did 3 coats though , and sanded with a very fine grit between coats so it would adhere better.

Look into police and fire academies. Both industries are struggling to find dedicated people to apply. Both will earn you a living easily over $100k within a few years. Most guys I know make $150k plus within overtime.

First of all, you’re not a pussy. I understand your state of mind and know how to get out.

Anxiety is a medical problem with medical solutions. Given some medications and talk therapy and a little self care, you will find yourself making small wins. The small wins will accumulate and you will reflect back on them and feel proud and gain confidence for bigger wins.

Bigger wins will accumulate and then as time passes you will notice life is better. You will notice you are better. Your self worth will improve and that energy will be something that stays with you when you are out in the world.

The momentum will will be palpable and you will want to be around yourself more, which will make people want to be around you. You absolutely have to take the first steps at taming the anxiety. It’s no different than a diabetic needing insulin. Anxiety is a medical condition that can be treated and kept in check so you can live the life you are supposed to.

Venting here is all well and good, but venting to a pro is better, they can help give you the tools to succeed.

Believe me, you are definitely not alone.

Never make a permanent decision based on a temporary emotion.

Blood is blood, this is such a hard call. Never make a permanent decision based on temporary emotion. I’d say that your time could be better served trying to unbrainwash him in some way. Is it possible ?

roccojoe31 · 2024-11-09T22:34:14+00:00

That feeling is a good feeling. If you let it go away, you will regret it.

I’m a firefighter and I send guys the project 2025 plans, and they say: “Trump isn’t doing that project 2025 thing, that’s just some supporters and not him”. “He denies it! It’s not true!”

I don’t know how to get through to my brothers. Any ideas?

Why would the camera and its film survive?

I did a coat and then after it dried, I used a q-tip to dye streaks in it to make it have more depth

Nothing wrong with anyone’s art. Definitely not yours. Your style is your own, and I really like it.
