He sounds like a really good friend, patient and understanding.
I like your idea of listening and accepting your thoughts. I distract myself every way and when, and I think it doesn’t help with the processing, so maybe I’ll take a leaf out of your book and maybe just sit and reflect a little and see if I can come to peace with some of my mistakes.
Have a good day, stranger :-)

Thanks, and yeah there definitely is an aspect of self-flagellation, since I’m not sure I want to forgive myself just yet. We’ll see.
How did your Friday happen? Did you friend reach out to you, or did you reach out to them for support?

I bet in pre-history it happened more often than not in humans, and within recorded history has likely happened more times than anyone would admit.
- Comment on How are you feeling? 14 hours ago:
I have unresolved feelings of extreme guilt for abandoning my loving ex, for abandoning my sibling when they needed me most, for abandoning anyone who depended on me for support.
I’m okay day to day with caffeine to help focus my thoughts on the task at hand, but sometimes after too many coffees I like awake at night spiralling into my head, living out fantasies of parallel worlds where I abandoned no one and am loved by all.
Writing stuff down helps, but I’ve decided to bite the bullet and go seek actual help.

Classic Lemmy. Here we are cracking jokes from the luxury of our armchairs, whilst that man is out there risking life and limb.
Shame on you all.

That’s what that means…! I thought it was an area code or something

Or you reset the currency, like Turkey has done many times before no?
- Comment on Anon is waiting for Japan 4 days ago:
Under the current system. All retirement vehicles dependent on the investment market will crash horribly. Anyone with retirement funds in such a crash is doomed. Which will force a reset and a switch to a new financial system (see: Turkey’s various resets over the last 50 years, or Greece in the last 10). Money will be lost. The system will reset, re-valuate the demand for such services, and people will be paid in a new currency to plug the supply.
- Comment on Anon is waiting for Japan 4 days ago:
Yeah, but that’s only a problem if elderly orderlies is an underpaid job that no one wants, and if people can’t afford to live when choosing such a profession.
If the economy adjusts or society adjusts such that caring for the elderly is a highly sought out and secure job that can easily pay a mortgage, what’s the issue?
This is what I mean when I say they will crash and adjust.

Got a summary? I know the onus is on me, but I’m not likely to dig much further
- Comment on Anon is waiting for Japan 4 days ago:
I mean every society has to rebuild after a crash, I’m just optimistic that they’ll do it faster
- Comment on Anon is waiting for Japan 4 days ago:
They’ll survive it, their markets and investments aren’t overvalued like ours are. They’ll crash, re-evaluate their societal priorities, and start to build again

You’re already on a high branch and like to watch your poop fall. Not onto anyone on purpose, of course, but gravity does the choosing.

You can’t. It’s literally there for life. Everyone has one, and it’s always different. Mine is a giraffe because I always reach for the high content

To repeat another interweb truism…
English is closer to Chinese/Japanese as a pictographic system, since there are so many exceptions to the phonetic rules, syntax, and grammar that govern it, that it’s often easier to just memorize whole words and phrases, than to guess how to use them from alphabet alone

My second paragraph was mostly just to excuse myself from mapping human emotions onto animal facial expressions.
He genuinely might be having the time of his life but we can’t read him properly.
- Comment on Free Him! 1 week ago:
That’s pretty terrifying. You can see the somewhat muted apprehension on his face mixed with a hope that he will be out of it soon.
Of course, I’m putting human emotions onto an animal, but that’s just because I can easily see myself in such a situation where I’m politely asked to step into a room and face a wall for a brief moment…
