- Comment on Why do the majority of women still take their partner's last name? 2 days ago:
Makes things easier for both parties when medical issues arise, even more so for parents. And I genuinely believe that a lot of women don’t know it’s an option.
I actually didn’t change my name when my mom married my dad, so you can really just say “no.” i was in middle school when I decided that, but whenever my dad tried to do anything, he had to jump through hoops. 🤷🏿♀️
- Comment on What are your favorite 1000+ hour games? 4 days ago:
Monster Hunter: Not all at once of course, but it’s a game I keep coming back to. A friend in college introduced me to it on the psp and I was invested. I’ve had some version of it somewhere since, and I don’t think I’ve ever removed it from my psp either.
Overwatch: This is from before the change, but it became a comfort game. There were no chats, and I didn’t have to be in voice chat. I was low level (bronze), but I was content. I still play here and there, but I may get a match or two in before I leave out. Back in the day I could play for hours.

Just plug it into a monitor and turn off the other screen 😂

I actually heard that this was most desirable in the stone age as the plumper women could survive winters and childrearing. So it is a bit like stone age photoshop, just not in the direction we usually expect.
- Comment on "The American experiment endures," Biden said. "We're going to be OK." 2 weeks ago:
We aren’t going to be okay. Stop saying it’s going to be okay. Project 25 is not okay, turning Gaza into a crater is not okay, banning abortion is not going, cutting Medicare is not okay. None of this shit is okay. Stop trying to sit and act like being cordial is going to make the right go, “Well, they’re being so nice about it.” We fucked up, and we need to face the consequences.

Remote claim work. Glorified customer service. It is busy and people burn out in a few months.

- Comment on It's because of Gerald's Game, isn't it? 3 weeks ago:
He is! He goes under Joe Hill so people don’t know, but I think he’s great. The Heart Shaped Box was my first book with him and I found it a lot of fun! NOS4A2 is my overall favorite, but it’s a long one, so I always recommend the shorter one first.

That was my first Cutter book and I did not expect to like it as much as I did.
Fuck Shelley, justice for Newton. 😭

Better or worse than The Troop?
- Comment on if you quit a job you didn't like or was toxic, didn't the financial hit scare you? 3 weeks ago:
Yes, I was terrified, but I was also having a mental breakdown. I called my mom sobbing and she was actually the one who told me to quit. I was lucky that she was around because I leaned on her for about two months.
If you can, look for a job, even if it’s gig work, before quitting. I know it sucks, but finding a job will be your new activity. In the mean time, switch to the bare minimum. Take longer breaks, use sick time, etc. Don’t burn any bridges. Spend time making a really nice resume/cover letter. Maybe even see if you can use some work resources before you tell them you’re out.
If you can’t stand it a second longer, I would sit down and see what you have and how long you can last. Finding a job without a residence (in the US anyway) is difficult, so I would not do anything that would leave you homeless. Let people around you know if you have such people. Tell your friends, parents, etc., so they know that you may be needing support. Do not tell anyone from work until you’re ready to go. Make a budget. Make one for if you have literally no money coming in so you can see the worse case scenario and have that be your starting point. You may even want to look around for food banks and so forth, especially churches during this time of year. It may not be everyday, but they do dinners more often in the winter. Write them down or save them somewhere that odes not require internet/service.
Good luck. I wish you you happiness.

Ya’ll better put some respect on my man’s name. Shaggy was a real one, even when he was scared. And he came with snacks.
- Comment on What are the pros and cons to buying a smart watch from temu? 1 month ago:
Pros:
- Cheap
- May still have regular capabilities
- not a big deal if it breaks
- They usually don’t require “service,” just Bluetooth and being connected to a phone.
Cons
- Usually they require an app, that could just be Spyware
- it will not last long
- the capabilities it will have will be a poor imitation of the original.
- Could be irritating (to the skin). It may not fit right.
- Poor battery life
- Additional E-waste when you do get rid of it once it dies.
