  • It definitely does not need to be one or the other. Oftentimes therapy could help in the relationship department considerably. Deep hurt is hard to get through alone, yet I hope more and more people understand there is help out there.
    If relationships are a two way street, and one person is hurting enough to affect their role within it all there should be no shame in reaching out in that way. It could help a lot. It’s a shame there’s still so much stigma around therapy.

    I studied literature in college, and my tutor stopped focusing on Joyce after we spent almost an entire lesson discovering these letters. The tutor was very fond of Joyce’s work, yet it became a bit difficult to speak seriously after that.

    I admit we were all incredibly immature about it, and I will go further to admit that currently in my mid-30s it is still incredibly hilarious. Maturity be damned, the man really liked farts.

    You know, I used to do this as a teenager, when cleaning my bearings with acetone, and I recall my family needing to get the sink repaired due to leakages getting quite severe at times.

    Only through this post have I come to realise, 20 years later, that I was most likely at fault for the issue.
    I mean I’m still not going to admit it to anyone, but it’s good to know and stuff.








  • I remember back before I got my own PC. My brother had Windows 98, installed Morpheus (similar to Kazaa).

    I looked for a game, I think it was some console game. “Wow, I didn’t even know this was on PC! Wow, it’s only 15MB, how did they get the game so small?? Computers are cool!”
    Every time I ran it, the screen would go all funky with every click and after a while return to normal.

    On a separate occasion I deleted System32 files (whichever ones it let me at the time), to free up space.

    It’s quite funny that a lot of people ask me for various advice, fixing devices, PCs, etc. just a friendly reminder to myself that everyone starts somewhere. Boy I messed up so many PCs when I was much younger.



  • I have been getting more stoned in the past few days, in the hopes to provide more absolutely terrible jokes, however I went too far and binged a bunch of Mr. Rogers videos on YouTube with dabs.

    Have you guys seen this man?! Someone this kind actually existed! Like man. Everyone needs to see Mr. Rogers stuff I think, it’s like, proper positive and stuff.




  • I remember when Skype first came out, when I was a teenager. I called a random guy in Japan; he was learning English, I wanted to learn Japanese (as is tradition for teenage anime fans). It was a very kind series of calls, and we talked a bit about Japanese culture too. He taught me, rather patiently, how to pronounce certain basic words properly.
    It’s a shame the service was treated like it has been. There was great potential in connecting people.

    Wherever you are, random Japanese dude I forgot the name of, konbanwa!!
