Yes, but make sure the robber knows you’re referring to them.

how much it pains me to see the growing amount of people hurting on here, and how i can’t help everyone

Thanks for putting into words what I’m feeling too. It’s debilitating to watch so many of us suffer needlessly, may it be from lack of medical care, flat out benefits or wars. You’re not alone with this feeling of helplessness. But remember, Honkey, this system is designed to make us feel this way. Don’t let it break your spirit, and keep doing what you can. And if all that you can do is listening to to your comrades, as it is in my case, then that’s enough for now. We’ll help everyone eventually, including @DisabledAceSocialist@hexbear.net and ourselves.

You haven’t. Even if you had a former life, it wouldn’t impact the current one. New life, blank slate. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

I’m glad there are some souls around the globe that have gotten you this far, and I can relate a lot to that sentiment. While you may be alone in person, there’s almost always someone who’s just a typed message away, and is actually willing to listen (and that includes me, if you want to).

However, I will never understand people abandoning their friends over becoming sick. If anything, this only proves the lack of depth to their side of the friendship, and that’s simply disgusting. Friends don’t leave you hanging just because “you’re no fun to hang around anymore”. Bullshit, when a friend gets sick, you don’t abandon them??? I could scream about this for hours, but I’ll shorten it to: You deserve better friends that respect you and treat you right.

You replied to my “existential crisis” comment with so much compassion although you’re in a much tougher situation, and I wanted to start by saying thank you for caring so much about others even when you’re in dire needs yourself. You are a true comrade, and I am feeling better just knowing you are out there.

I think you’re doing anything you possibly can, you’re asking for help, and you know the UKs systems better than I do, so I don’t have any advice. I wish I had money to spare to help you truly, and not just for another meal or just so making rent (I barely have enough to get by). I wish there was more an individual person could do to help you, but as you well know, collective action gets the goods. I’m praying for a revolution for all of us, to finally get rid off this dehumanized exploitation you (and everyone else) are being exposed to. I’m angry for all of us, and I don’t want you to die bc of money. Neither now, nor in the future.

I’m sending you unconditional love and camaraderie, and I wish I had more to give. Please, stay with us for as long as you can, comrade.

long exasperated sigh while getting into position ALRIGHT

Step two: rehabilitate hire them to work for you instead

Ah, now it makes sense that all my applications got turned down with “You’re overqualified for the position”

Reminds me of this gem

Always relevant, always good to revisit

A fulfilling job? In this economy?

Kidding aside, happy to hear it got better for you!

Did somebody say… Yuuzhan-Vong???

No, it does not sound like you’re making it about yourself. Thank you for telling me how you relate to what I wrote, and I’m glad that at least the discovery of your application history made your parents stop. I only doubt that my family will see it this way, since there’s no “papertrail” for online applications. I hope they’ll at least stop asking about it once I get any job.

I will try to do that, as best as I can. Thank you again for your kind words, and might I add, the pillow is a good alternative if no friends are at hand.

A brilliant idea! I hope it’s the extended cut?

Oh, favorite episodes is hard to tell, but from what I’ve rewatched so far, I’d say it’s The Devil in The Dark (s01e26).

Omg how cool! I’ll have a longer look at the unity engine later, and while I don’t understand much of these engines, learning never hurt. Enjoy yourself!

Anytime, friend, and thank you for understanding as well. I can’t properly reply bc otherwise I’ll probably start crying

And I know you can work through your brain worms just as much as I can, and have to. We’re on a good track, knowing what we have to change about ourselves, and I do feel encouraged, knowing I’m not the only one trying to be kinder to myself, others, and still learning so much about everything.

We are, comrade, we are

I think I’m gonna re-watch some of the original Star Trek series. Out of curiosity, what games are you playing?

I think I know what to put on my wishlist for my birthday

Happy educationally radical reading comrade!

We’re the same person in different time lines.

Thank you comrade, I appreciate you and your words
