we have feshsign These two are very similar though, heads up quote:I haven't been on a date since my girlfriend of around 7 years broke up with me in a very harsh way about 10 years ago. I've basically withdrawn entirely and haven't truly had a conversation for that same amount of time. The only conversations I have are work related and I still say the bare minimum. You might need therapy more than anyone else ITT has needed it so far Like, I can't emphasize this enough: that is not a slam, it's a recommendation. Go to a therapist and try to learn to stop punishing yourself. Ten years is probably enough time of feeling like poo poo. quote:I have been living alone for almost 4 years and working from home for 2 and I think I'm regressing into a subhuman nerd. My social anxiety has never been higher, I can count the friends I have left with one hand (since I forget to start conversations or check out social media), my last date was a year ago and before that it had been 2 years of being single after a bad breakup. I'm not that fat or that ugly, but it's hard to meet people when you avoid going out your apartment. I try to get everything online for that purpose. And for some reason Tinder triggers my social anxiety like crazy, to the point that when I match with someone I immediately unmatch. Yeah I don't think liking weird porn is actually worse than complete social withdrawal. Gotta get out of that shell. If you can think of a way to make yourself do that that doesn't involve getting some help, give it a shot, but that's still my go-to for stuff like this. If you're worried about people thinking less of you because of local culture or whatever, then don't tell them. It's not their business.

how can you dumb nerds be so good at cracking open video game mechanics and game theory yet not understand the same lessons can be applied in 'real life' go to a low level bar filled with low level goblins level up there smashing rats for a bit then move onto a nicer bar, using the confidence you have found owning goblins you don't have to choke yourself out and nail ur balls to the floor for fun. you are choosing that because it's easier than learning a new gameplay mechanic (meeting people)

Working from home isn't healthy for some/most people. I have worked as a project manager in a translational agency and trust me, 80% of our translators that worked from home were socially weird. I decided there and then I needed to get a desk in a shared office to not go nuts if I ever went freelance. When the day came, I did and I never looked back. Do yourself a favour and find a shared office if at all possible so you get to see people and have someone to go to lunch with. You don't have to become friends with them, but you can slowly ease back into a normal social life.

If you were colluding with other players at the table, that kind of easy patter would be a way to signal to the other players what was in your hand. It's not because they hate fun, it's because they don't want cheaters to fleece honest players and kill the game.

quote:I go days without saying more than like 10 words. I leave my house and everything, but I work in an open plan office so we aren't allowed to speak to each other because it distracts people around us. I have friends, but we only meet up like once or twice a week, we mostly stay in touch through gchat and social media. And I live alone. So other than the 1-2 days when I see friends, I mostly just say "thanks" to cashiers or "hi/bye" to my closest coworker. It sucks, I didn't know it was possible but I think my voice is atrophying somehow. Sometimes the volume or pitch is a little bit off from what I meant, and it sounds creaky, and when I do have a conversation for more than like 10 minutes, my vocal cords get tired I guess. You still see your friends pretty often so your social life isn't dying or anything but also I don't think the "no talking" rule is normal. I work in an open plan office too (I think that's what it's called, we have low-walled cubes about half the height of a person) and if we have to talk about poo poo we goddamn well talk about it. People can put on headphones if they don't like it. That's how it's been at every company I've worked at, too. That's not something to just kind of accept as a done deal, and if it's messing with you that much you should find a new job. quote:I am sexually obsessed with trans women, and I think that it might be overcompensation from a repressed homosexuality. I've been telling people to get therapy a lot lately, but you are absolutely traumatized and should get some help with that I wouldn't go leaving your girlfriend over this or anything though. Maybe float the idea of getting some toys or something.

Yeah deffo get therapy. There's nothing wrong with liking trannies or dudes but you were abused and need to try to get that squared away in your subconscious. You also need to tell your g/f about this so she knows to have some patience with you. Most girls would be happy with your honesty, and if yours isnt then it wasnt going to last anyway.

Hopper posted:Working from home isn't healthy for some/most people. Seconding this. My job allows me to work from home 4 days a week if I like, so that's what I did through the winter because gently caress snow. I was completely batshit by February. I wouldn't leave the house for days at a time and would rage over stupid petty work annoyances like wrong numbers, etc. Since I didn't have anyone to talk to all day I would stew over things that bugged me for hours. I went back to working at the office full-time and my mental health immediately improved. Telecommuting can really gently caress with your head.

I am a poker dealer and I've been in the casino business for about a decade. I've seen everything you can imagine, from professional players who pull down $250k a year and degenerates who manage to lose $10k in 3 hours at a $1-$2NL table. Here's the secret. Bring enough money to make sure you're going to have fun and then leave if you lose that money. If your casino is giving you free poo poo take advantage of that. I knew a guy who lived at the casino full time, his rooms were comped during the week and he would sleep in his car on the weekends. His only real bill was his cell phone bill. Your "gambling system" isn't special and it won't ever work. Even if it does work one day, you'll come back the next day and give it all back. The house always wins in the end so make sure you're having fun, and typically everyone who isn't a supervisor or above can receive tips in a casino. So, if you get good service from a janitor or a cashier throw em a dollar. They'd love it. Tip your dealers to! (Oh and on a long enough timeline every square foot of space that is available to the public eventually has piss or poo poo on it at one point.)

My dad was plainly not caring for working from home, he would not do it anytime he had somewhere to go. Me on the other hand have been at it for 3 years and never want to return to the office the rest of my life.

(It's my understanding you don't really get comped much for poker since the only $ they make from it is the rake - much less profitable than say blackjack, roulette, or other impossible-to-win games* *(Yes, you can count cards. They'll notice, and ban you and your kmart underwear)

maskenfreiheit posted:was he actually making a profit, or just losing the equivalent of the revenue from actually renting out that room? Honestly, I don't know the exact details, he barely played just enough to be one level higher player's card then the starting one. It wasn't a glamorous life at all, on the weekends he'd save his hotel key so he could take a shower in the pool area. They changed the requirements for the levels on player's cards and he couldn't play poker enough to get to the next level. So he finally "moved out." In regards to card counting there's a computer program that will track a player to see if he actually is counting cards. So, a dealer might tell his floor that he thinks this guy is counting cards and the floor will notify the pit boss and the pit boss will call surveillance and have them audit the table. Now, I've never dealt blackjack, but as a poker dealer I'm willing to let a lot of poo poo slide if they're a great tipper. I'm not saying I would let a player cheat or angle-shot, but great tippers always get leeway at a table. So, realistically you can probably get away with counting cards if you're a great tipper. I've heard stories from roulette dealers that have dealt the game for 20+ years about how they're able to reliably put the ball in a 4-5 number spread every single time. If you're a great tipper then you might get some advice on where to bet next spin, ya know?

quote:So I recently received a work email from an unrecognised address. It contained 12 photographs of one of my employees in a variety of indecent situations - wearing women's underwear, with a vibrator in his mouth, gaping his butthole etc. gross I say fire him, it's the only way he'll learn to separate serious stuff from fetish stuff. Who knows how much money this woman or others like her have extracted from him. also giving implicit consent to someone to send you these images is kind of functionally equivalent to doing it himself as far as workplace professionalism quote:I don't even have to think about it, I would let someone pee on me in a sexual situation. And I would also return the favor. You could just say "confession: I have a pee fetish", this is a weird way to say that. Like not even creepy weird, just weird weird

My employee gave her dominatrix my contact information explicitly so she can send me unrequested and unwanted sexual pictures of him. What do? I'm scared he'll talk to me about it! Dude, what the gently caress? Fire his rear end, this is sexual harassment. Next time his dominatrix will send pictures to the whole office and you've a scandal in your hands, and he can prove you got then first and did nothing about it. Get his Dom's number first though. Good ones are hard to find.

Dominatrix'd boss: Your employee is an idiot. He wasn't supposed to actually give her his employer's phone number. You should fire him because he's an idiot and doesn't get that he's paying her for an elaborate game, not to actually get fired. If she knew, she'd probably fire him as a client.

And then she just sort of sends a bunch of incriminating photos to whatever that email address actually is while winking at the camera? "Uh-oh, Carl, looks like he's reeeeal maaaad!"

Boss Goon: you can't in good conscience fire this guy. This kind of gently caress-up is a career-ender. Demote him, put him on probation or make him take unpaid leave to get his head examined or whatever but this is a major fork in the road for your employee and he needs mental help if he thought this was at all appropriate.
