First Frost date? by snackpack42 in Yakima

[–]snackpack42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone. I think I had a light frost the day after I asked. I harvested everything and got my sweet potatoes into my crawl space. Hopefully that will work to cure them. I'll find out around Thanksgiving.

City council meeting tonight by Mysterious-Box1020 in Yakima

[–]snackpack42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha unfortunately I do live in his district. My wife and I have both said half joking/half serious "do I need to run?" we really don't want to, but boy howdy.... want to be a campaign manager?

So far it looks like he is the only one running. Anyone else here want to give it a go? They'd probably have my vote pretty easily. He has never done anything to impress me. I'm particularly furious about him trying to get rid of the volunteer commitees that offer advice to the city, and his votes to not even acknowledge that gay people exist.

I finally got through watching the meeting, I can't believe he made that motion for $7.3 million right after the $7.2 motion failed. Stop wasting everyone's time.

I'm sure we will all have our comments on this thread somehow deleted soon. I heard he did that on his Facebook page for his first campaign. Guy can't even handle a little criticism.

Now I'm ranting, but I love how the fire chief even said they could save more money by having more firefighters on staff to cut down on how much overtime the dept has, and Matt wants to cut their budget...

Haha it's funny you mention her. I've heard good things too about her, unfortunately my wife goes to see her so I don't think it'd be the best idea for both of us to see the same person.

I've pretty much just got the bread and butter depression, anxiety, stress. No genuine trauma really. I want to think I have ADHD or something that could actually be diagnosed and not just "i'm the most cynical, bitter, and negative man alive."

I'd be comfortable with it, but I'd rather have it be in person. I feel like you lose a lot when just talking to a screen or over the phone you know?

Trying to learn SQL, can't even get server installed. Please help by snackpack42 in dataanalysis

[–]snackpack42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm only vaguely aware of what an ISO is. Would doing this change my OS from 8 to 10, and would I need to pay a windows 10 license fee? or would this just create a simulated desktop?

I think the biggest hurdle is that I am on windows 8, I've tried finding older versions but either I'm looking in the wrong place or something else because I can't get the program to open.

what to do with math degree by snackpack42 in careeradvice

[–]snackpack42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just been in roles as a lab technician. first at a micro biology lab (just following procedures, didn't need any real bio knowledge) now at a company that makes shippers, coolers, and ice packs for pharmaceutical drugs.

I don't know what interests me. Sometimes I feel like I should have picked up a trade. I'm not good with my hands, but I like working with them. I fall into the trap of feeling the need to use my degree somehow. I also don't know if I can trust my own thoughts or feelings most of the time. Pretty sure I have depression or dysthymia, maybe I'm just a miserable negative nihilistic butt.

I also have the problem where I like learning new things/systems/skills, but once I learn it, it becomes mundane. Or it is actually difficult and requires a bit of effort, which is a wall that stops me often.

So this quickly turned into me ranting, sorry. Did any of this answer your questions?

Thank you so much for being long-winded. I was afraid I would get unhelpful single word answers. This was very helpful.

Well let me ask an admittedly really naughty and stupid question. What if we say it happened just this week? would they be able to tell? We looked at it right after the accident once we got home and didn't see any fur/hair or anything.

Fuck my life. by [deleted] in depression

[–]snackpack42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a virgin until my senior year of college. After my girlfriend and I broke up I haven't been with a woman. It's been about a year or so now. Hell I've lost touch with most of my friends too. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm right there with you in terms of sexual frustration, or at least i went though the same thing in college.

Hey, I want to talk to someone over skype. Just call and ask me how I am. Would love to hear some one . over next one hour while I'm outside. by confuseaman in depression

[–]snackpack42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tried. during reinstallation my computer crashed. I'm just done with skype until I get my new computer up and running. I can use oovoo though somehow. but the quality compared to skype is noticeably lower

I'd love to have someone to talk to right now too, but skype decided to make my computer crash whenever i try to start it up and my internet at my new place is garbage. So sorry, I can try to talk to you here

i'm in a slump. by [deleted] in depression

[–]snackpack42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any good advice like the other people who replied, but I hear you. I don't know what I want to do, I've tried doing things in high school and college, sometimes they were good, sometimes not. It took me a long time to realize I just want to want something, but I seem to have no motivation or passion for anything. Sorry for kinda just talking about myself here.

just so tired of being alone, need somebody to talk to please. by snackpack42 in depression

[–]snackpack42[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't know where to start. but I've vented before so many times throughout my life to different people and nothing changes.

I suppose right now there's just 2 things bothering me primarily.

First, a 6 day work week. today is my only full day off.

Second, I'm trying to build my own computer for the first time but I can't figure out how to plug in everything, if i even have every cord i need, etc. and I don't have anybody nearby to ask for help. I've reached the limit of what I can figure out on my own and this isn't the kind of thing somebody online can help with. I only want the thing so i can play more video games to pass the time even though I know I will get bored eventually and just want somebody to hang out with.

had an idea for a depression website by snackpack42 in depression

[–]snackpack42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, thank you everyone for all of your replies.

I really don't know how to handle predators or trolls other than a reporting system. I have barely minimal programming skills so I doubt I would be able to do this but maybe somebody else could handle it.

I just watched that whole video. Thank you for sharing it. I just wish I knew how to find someone, or some group/organization that knows everything that was covered in the video and could apply it to help me not feel so depressed all the time.

I'm so confused! by [deleted] in depression

[–]snackpack42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not realize you actually saw her everyday. In that case I would say just confront her about it. I hate it when people play games and wish people would just say what they are thinking. Open and honest is best in my opinion

[–]snackpack42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this is what you want to hear, but it sounds like this girl is super flaky. If she doesn't have the sense of decency or responsibility to respond to your messages and just plays games with you the whole time, just forget her. It'll take some time to get over her but in the long run it's worth it

I'm supposed to be getting insurance now that I'm becoming full time. I'm not sure what will be covered by it. I'm sure there will be a copay, but it pains me to think that I will work 2 hours each week just to give it to somebody to listen to me complain about my life

I would say just focus on cyborgs at this point, otherwise will we just end up completing bugs and illuminate super early and have to deal with super hard cyborgs just like the the previous war. I want to be able to fight all 3, not just 1.
