Ok everyone just add your list to the bottom of this one and we'll figure out a way to remove the duplicates eventually:
Gulag_revised_v2_new_final_b_reallyfinal_v3_THISONESTEPHEN_2017_b_final.odt.doc.txt.doc

It's on the Q drive (last I heard), or the H drive if you were hired after February of 2014. Ask Linda for access or tell George to remind her next day if shes out of office (most days after 2:30)

I think noom is just a cbt app where you mark your negative thoughts and it gives you replacement bullshit to do, better help let’s you talk to an actual shrink on video if you want

Does better help connect you with real shrinks? The ads gave me the impression it was gig workers you'd be talking to.

give it a shot, they might be more relatable and better at their job than most “real shrinks” out there on account of their horrific experience.

from what I've read noom is like a dieting app that advises to get an eating disorder for all weight loss goals

like there was this whole big thread i saw on twitter of people that were like "I wanted to lose x lbs and it said to eat less than 1200 cal a day"
