Idea is good, in principal. Can I just offer some thoughts to get things happening smoothly.

Bullying, what type? I can only offer general overall advice without specifics. So I’ll offer some food for thought, What if that person is neurodivergent and doesn’t understand they’re bullying, or coming across too blunt. I would suggest, address the behaviour directly, succinctly and without judgement.

Talk as if they’re an alien and don’t understand our culture, and you have belief once they understand they will step up. But say it as plainly, in the least amount of words possible. Don’t leave room to debate, just straight plain facts. This causes this. Please don’t.

Ask how you can help them be more effective in positive engagement.

On a personal note it’s always a good idea to listen to the messages your body is giving you, those emotions are a need your body has, it isn’t about anyone else, it’s about your lived experience and how comfortable you are in your environment. Times you haven’t felt safe can be a trigger for you in the future, and then bullies words hurt more. If you feel you have unhealed trauma or a low sense of self and self worth because the world in general has chewed you up, (which it does so often it’s almost a universal experience) find and build on yourself in those areas. It doesn’t minimise that the bullies are harmful, just utilise their efforts to find places you can up skill and heal, if they are being highlighted for you. They still suck. You just take what they give you and turn it into a tool to build on yourself and build yourself up. Be genuine, curious and open and deep dive on your feelings. Eventually, after studying what’s freely available out there and uplevelling your sense of self, you start to see all of the bullies behaviours are entirely about their own broken insides and damage. It’s really hard to be upset by words from someone you pity.

Avoiding toxic environments is a better way to live. Finding ways to make that environment non toxic is a good life philosophy. Do your labour laws already have protections built in to protect you from psychological abusive type behaviours in the workplace?

Ooooh! And and! Apparently they contain newly discovered flavours of nano plastics too! Exciting stuff, gals!

You would probably drive more carefully with cake, than “the weather is bad”, anyway. So probably a better way to advise. Cake and half full fish tanks, because you’re too lazy to empty them the whole way…

I’m doing a course for cyber security at my local tafe, and thier website only works on Chrome. Go. Figure.

They’re kinda telling on themselves, ‘no secrets’ what does watching an add have to do with secrets, unless they want you to have no secrets from them, and give you all a your data. Then that sentence makes sense. That sentence has some real twist / projection / gaslighty vibes. Why do corporations feel like my abusive ex.

Be angry, also, at the people who have rigged the game, those in power, artificially inflating prices to line their own pockets. And I’m so sorry you’ve had such bad runs! I’m also a little proud of you for, not only getting as far as you did, but a few times! Well done! I say we fucking eat the rich.

Your true enemy is capitalism, tho. Don’t shoot the messenger.

So even when we all die out from climate change events, bad memes will go on. Actually that’s weirdly comforting. Feels like a less good version of Walle, or something.

I really want to be able to read this and know wtf it means. I have so much skill to up.

Oh! Someone pronounced his name wrong! Bad form, on them.

Question: did anyone notice, In TNG, anyone say “data” referring to information, but with the different pronunciation to “Data”, in the show? Why did I not think to look out for this till now!

You were the superstar cool kid! I bet you’re just as cool, now bud.

Hey man, that’s one of your secret superpowers!

There’s always that one sibling that you pass the controller to, who can easily do the thing, like it’s nothing, and you have been trying for hours. Also, I was born 1977 too! We had an Atari, tho. I spent full days on that thing trying to get that big block of attacking aliens down to none.

I came here to say this too, but I did that thing where you look to see if someone else has said it. Hi, my people! I would sell my soul for this to become a thing.

Came across the same issue when I set up my dads new bedroom telly for him, I bodged it up with a plank on top of the dresser it was sitting on.

$50 bucks says, he still never feels like it’s enough.

I used to play that game! Simpler times! I called it doppelganger, and I would just shout random celebrities names, as if I was seeing the real celebrity, but it was just someone who looks slightly like them. I would have loved to get selfies with these dopples and just pretend I thought they were the real thing to other people, even when they looked almost nothing like them. Until it was so obvious I was taking the piss, there was no fooling anyone any more. Then I would keep doing it just to be annoying! It would never lose flavour.

I completely get your point there, public housing has become very rare and impossible to obtain. I believe, seeing as almost all the politicians are landlords, (at least where I am) that’s by design. How is that not insider trading. Fr.

You mean like public housing?
