Soooo my wife just got a job at the University of East London, Dockland campus. Which means I'm going to be looking for a job and we're going to be moving to that sort of area (I'm a senior level embedded Linux snuggler, so not too worried about finding something, hopefully) Don't we have a goon that lives there? what's the low down?

Crying always makes me feel better when I'm down, not sure what the science behind that one is! I'm glad you're feeling better. Seeing people's personal stories in this thread always get me fired up to keep fighting since my immediate surroundings are a bit middle class. I'm gonna make sure you have a good life, Owl!

Slightly more helpfully, assuming the campus you mean is the one down by Cyprus, you're not short of places to live around there - personally though I'd try for somewhere a little further away to save yourself a shitload of money and have a half-decent chance of having decent local amenities (all the stuff in that area is new-build and soulless as hell), and also to get out of the flight path of City Airport (and the smell path of the Beckton Sewage Works - there's some seriously cheap housing around Gallion's Reach which they won't let you view at certain times of day because the whole area reeks of poo poo just before high tide). Look for stuff in Silvertown/North Woolwich (other side of the dock, 10-15 minute walk to UEL, good DLR links to the centre of town) or up in Beckton proper (nicer area, less well-connected unless you're right by the DLR). Failing that, if you're going to be working around the City and your missus doesn't mind a bus journey, Plaistow, Upton Park and Forest Gate are still cheap as balls (by local standards) with nice local shops and parks, 20 minutes by bus to UEL and half an hour tube to the centre of town. e: Now I think of it, I'm fairly sure UEL are moving a load of stuff out to Stratford fairly soon (there's big hoardings saying so just by the stadium at least) so Forest Gate or Plaistow would be excellent hedges in case they suddenly decide to move her there. goddamnedtwisto fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Dec 4, 2019 |

I never used to have a problem with it, I've long felt it was a necessary part of the process of dealing with pain, I just lost the ability to do it for quite a few years coinciding with a general downturn in mental health. Which didn't help.

I can't cry and it sucks. Even when no one's around I just get an ache in my jaw and a cramp in my neck when I know I could be crying. It's not healthy or useful, it's probably more distracting and time consuming than crying would be. There's times where the only range in my expression is in just how wide and strained my military esque flat smile is.

Ahh makes sense now, i was stuggling to get my head around an oatcake and cheese on a roll, the Staffordshire ones looks tasty, might need to give them a try.(anyone got a good recipe?) Prices check out I run the same sorta place up here and im about the same +-20p on most of that menu.

I mean yeah I feel for people worse off than me but I also genuinely just don't believe in the idea that most people can exist outside society. I don't have enough money for that and I know for a fact I never will. If I was rich enough sure I might think different but my whole life has been an interdependence on social structures. I don't see how else to live and I also don't think it's healthy to live any other way. Like the only way I can improve my lot is by improving everyone's lot, we live and die together, pulled by the same tides. I can't be separated from everyone else save by chance, and I can't live my life waiting for chance to find me. Azza Bamboo posted:I can't cry and it sucks.

Wanting to improve the lot of others and caring about misfortune makes you a decent person in my book, even if part of the motivation is recognising that your own life will improve if the lives of those around you improve. And that don't sound special but in the world we live in today, unfortunately it is. Also I have great difficulty crying owing to my mom telling me crying is for wimps since I can remember. Thanks mom.
