Posts you had second thought about and decided not to post - put them here

you better believe i just googled the phrase "anal chakra"

it's less about survivor's guilt and more about survivor's confusion. understanding there's no real reason why i've survived, so far, and he didn't. if he was alive, you know, he might actually have figured a lot of this shit out for himself, possibly do a better job of it than my own ham-fisted stumblings about. he's not, though.

fair, although ofc everyone's shit is somewhat distinct, as the old cliche goes

Wow I was confused for a moment but yeah
tbh I've been having major spirals the past two months and I wanna tell people "if only you knew the unbearable pain of persistent suicidality, it is more intense than anything else" and I guess I read your post as trivializing, even if it wasn't <3

it is a difficult topic to talk about, the actual experience of suicidality. not just for internal reasons, but knowing that for some people, hearing someone talking about it can not just hurt them but put them in danger. so i try to circumlocute the topic, and in this case what i was saying was too raw, circumlocution didn't make it any easier.

everyone reading this, particularly everyone participating in this particular little convo, i care about you and i hope you can stay safe.

there is WW1 memorial I often pass which has For The Glory Of Goo inscribed on it, people died for goo!

was it Minchenhampton or somewhere in the Cotswolds? As a kid there was a cafe there that had this delicious treat called goo -- chocolate, caramel, cookie base -- it was, er, to die for

You can't produce wine without crushing a few grapes.

xp

it's at Thornhill rectory in W Yorkshire, it looks like Goo but my eyesight is bad and I do admit to a tendency to be flippant about war memorials. Goo sounds nice!

Ooh, I could vote in an ILM poll

in the spirit of #onethread, is there a thread where we can find out who the fuck these new user and display names are?

also reading this whole thing and then going back through the LGBT thread has made me think about Bimble, and how i bet Bimble would have been a real delight to have in these conversations. seriously!

Mountain View, not San Jose ... tourist

Indeed, I was visiting.

it's not like the South Bay was some place to be proud of being from tbh

it seemed prideworthy! but mushrooms tell tales

mushroom compost has a really strong smell ... much stronger than garlic fwiw

It was the anniversary of Bimble's death just the other day. It's been 11 years!

Jeez! I remember that day very distinctly. It was awful. RIP Bimble.

getting me all excited to talk about lee morgan but no, you're discussing the worst fuckin band ever, again, why do you do this

Absolutely nothing more irritating than someone coming in late and deciding to bump a drama-filled thread everyone else had let fall down sna.

International time zones exist tbf

get rid

xp doesn’t mean we need a useless take delivered late

right on schedule, ilxors yearning for a world where politicians only pander to white leftists under 40

Pander to meeeeeee!

oh look more fucking DARVO

Eat Scamps Do Knife Crimes

Post not about yourself challenge

i'm only interested in politically engaging with people who are capable of listening to people whose beliefs differ from their own with kindness and respect. that quality isn't exclusive to white leftists under 40 but you certainly don't seem to be evincing it right now.

DARVO? really?

you know what, never mind. I’m not having this discussion.

Police violence at protests is a major contributing factor to the agoraphobia that I have to live with, and being repeatedly called a 'cop' is literally forcing me to relive that time over and over again. I guess you like triggering flashbacks and anxiety spirals when you don't consider someone your friend.

the statistical distribution of stupidity would be interesting to see in chart form

Quarantine US discourse on just about everything imo.
