Tide posted:The only thing I see Twitter being used for is saying how angry you are are about thing. It's an outrage mechanism, where it seems everything is worthy of being outraged about. It's like the world turned into a collective middle aged woman with the middle management soccer mom haircut and is demanding to speak to everyones manager. it's just like any other social media experience and you can tailor it to whatever you like and remove what you don't

Here's the problem with it... You can't avoid it. Every single person here is one misstep away - however innocuous or slight that misstep may be - from being blasted onto twitter. And if it gets legs (for whatever reason), their livelyhoods, families, etc can all be irreparably ruined from it. I daresay alot of us are lucky as gently caress that twitter and facebook and all that weren't around when we were teens or in college. It's not necessarily twitter or facebook or whatever. It's just the world we live in that people accept whatever they see on twitter or facebook at its face value. We are an information age where most of it is just wrong. insert gif of man yells at clouds or get off my lawn

The real important thing we all avoided was having no excuse for not calling your mom to tell you where you're at... "Sorry mom, there were no pay phones that we could find <sad shrug> so I couldn't tell you we were going to that party you wouldn't have let me go to" doesn't cut it anymore.

CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:I'll tell you what has value. Go outside. Sit in the sunshine. gently caress social media. Sit in the sunshine??? That's a slow and unpleasant form of suicide. Social media just makes me angry. So does the news really, unless it's things like space or scientific discovery. They are pretty benign. Hell, I'm an angry person. But I control it. The only reason I signed up to Facebook was an attempt to contact people I hadn't seen in years and no longer had their contact information. It's an absolute cesspit. I'm also not a jealous person, but I guess I do have a bit of a twinge when people I knew are going on holidays, enjoying a relaxing day, being happy etc when I'm on damage control 24/7 trying to put out the metaphorical flames with my hands in a giant rubbish fire. Well, poo poo. Typing this has put me over my time budget.

It's a legit psychological thing that people get depressed when they compare their lives unfavourably to the lives they perceive their friends to be leading via facebook. The fact is that most people try to post only the best sides of themselves on facebook, so they seem to be having amazing lives where everything goes right for them, when in 99% of cases that isn't whats going on at all, and they have as many lovely things going on as you do

It doesnt matter how well you think you have treated someone, how long they have cried on your shoulder, how often you have gone out with them for coffee or whatever, they do NOT owe you anything in return. I see this with the moronic Incel movement of ppathetic idiots thinking they are owed sex. gently caress YOU, NO YOU ARE NOT OWED ANYTHING you goddamn loving idiot. If you think you have been friendzoned .... okay gently caress that there is no such thing as a friendzone, you are either going to respect her wishes or you are not a friend at all. If she doesnt want you for more than a shoulder to lean on..... well get the gently caress over it mate she doesnt owe you a drat thing and you can either stop being a complete idiot and treat her with the respect she deserves and BE HER FRIEND or you can just gently caress off.

If you're anywhere but Wisconsin, I can't recommend beer cheese soup highly enough. *edit* If you're from here, you probably know. Dice up about an onion, couple carrots, couple cloves of garlic, bay leaf and a couple stalks of celery, and sautee them in about half a stick of butter... more's fine too. Once they're kinda soft, stir in about a 3rd cup of flour, roux style and keep stirring it around. Bottle of beer (pale ale of some sort, IPA is too hoppy) two cups of milk and two cups (ish) of chicken stock, let it get hot again (don't let it boil) then tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, teaspoon of mustard powder, some salt and pepper. Then melt in about a pound and a half of shredded cheddar. Good stuff. Should be right on the verge of congealing but not quite.

I just found out that my absolute favorite band, HUM, is playing a single show in 2018. They only get back together once in a great while and play one night. The music they've created has touched my soul in a way no other music ever has. I failed to see them live so many times, always life getting in the way. They are hinting that this might be the very last time they do this as it's becoming increasingly difficult to coordinate these shows. One show. St Louis, Feb 24th, 2018. <sigh> my wedding day. here's hoping I get one more shot at seeing this band.

Walked into work today and it smelled like a a dozen homeless people threw up after eating at the discount sushi train across the street, hit up the closest Mexican restaurant for seconds, and washed it down with the finest $2 buck chuck. Turns out it was an electrical fire in the buildings main breaker panels from 1948 and there's the chance we might loose power at any minute. Good thing we have backups. Oh wait... that's next years budget.
