American individualism will kill us all, btw. Y’all gonna “I don’t owe“ and “It doesn’t affect ME” all of us right to death.

Probably just frustration. When you want to have a conversation about how to move forward but someone wants to keep bringing up the past it does get exhausting.

You couldn't pay me to live through an apocalypse. Same world but no consequences for bs? Hell naw. Men realizing they could do whatever? Tuh. I don’t care about the survival of the human race. We suck. Lmao. Let the animals have the planet.

I personally don’t wanna live in ANY apocalypse.

Y’all really want to live in a zombie apocalypse? Foraging for food amongst rotting flesh and people trying to turn you. Ain’t enough anxiety meds in the world.

Idk if I’d call it manipulative but it feels like black just wants a straight “we can be cool” or “we can’t be cool” type of answer whereas blue wants to talk through the process. just a disconnect in how they work through things, black wanna work alone vs blue wanna work together.

Now that we’re 25* years in, what are your top 5 worst years of the 21st century?

And are 2020 and/or 2025 on your list?

*I know this is the 26th year 🤨

My philosophy at work has always been show up, clock my time, leave. I don't talk to people enough to have a work bestie, spouse, enemy, none of that. Nor do I care about them enough. I guess I could technically say I've had a lot of "enemies" mad precisely because I don't talk, but....🤷🏾

re: work spouse -

1. if your partner's work spouse knows more about your partner, you should be taking notes.

2. i have never had a work spouse cause i don't talk to coworkers so this convo is always funny to me.

3. Kerry Washington & Tony Goldwyn win the work spouse wars.

Go see every specialist you've ever thought about seeing, if covered, and make sure you have any prescriptions needed. Even if you get your meds from a cheaper alternative, go get checked out and get your house in order.

By the way, if you have health insurance, now is the time to be getting ALLLLLLLL of your appointments together before any wild changes happen.

Today I was reminded of the book that made me put an author on my "never read anything by them" list and now I need to spend the day reading books I enjoy so I can go back to not thinking about that author ever again.

The decline of third spaces and hangouts, such as malls, video rental places, arcades & skate parks has been a direct result of the rise of convenience and has also been objectively bad for society as a whole. Its not that everyone HAS to socialize, but having no option to without bars is a failing.
