that's literally how Pollock became a thing.
only it was an anti-communist scheme the CIA developed, not so much about the nazis
Keep talking. I’ll follow

Do forums ever bring about the worst in anyone else?
Last few weeks I've been feeling awful after coming here, when I used to have so much fun here. Can't explain all the emotions really. Just "down, sad, ragey and jealous"
Just keeps wrecking my day - so I abstained (for 2 days🙁) *WoW what a commitment* a couple of times these past few weeks.
...anyhow I think its a "me" problem, so I shouldn't avoid the "source" of my 'problem'?
Just work on me and stuff?
realize? desensitize? and try to come to peace with?9 -

That's basically why I took my last months long hiatus. Sometimes it's good to leave but I think it's been fun around here lately?2 -

Im glad you're back!
Honestly, despite some of my favs coming back - I've been getting super sad here lately...and a bit bitchy feeling
Glad you feel its "better" too, another of my friends mentioned it, but I don't see it b/c Im in a "mood"
...Oh well, I'll try to embrace "the beast" (in me) and try to have fun here!
While you and the others I adore are around!

It’s part of why I keep quitting. If it makes me feel bad more than it makes me feel good it has to go. Other reasons have to do with time management and wanting to live more in the real world.4 -

I always like reading your post @Vikka_V
You're an awesome person to have here and make me think in New and different ways...
TBS.... Often times I feel like I'm here to much, and the enjoyment here ebs and flows for me just as much as anyone else I assume...
But then I look at my coworkers on their phones playing cash of clans or whatever and tell myself... Well they've got that and you've got this...
Although sometimes I feel like I've overstayed my welcome 😂... And will hiatus for one reason or another...
Sure there are other things I could and should be doing, but for a number of reasons unfortunately can't so here I am...8 -

my memory is pretty bad so i get confused or paranoid sometimes on here bc i dont know who people are really
and i get upset too and sometimes its a me problem but then a few times i see people being manipulative as hell and that fires me up pretty bad
anyways i like your posts and you (obvs) so i will do better job of responding with love instead of my usual pithy *kitten* and hope that helps some ♥️5 -

Thank you!
I get the "overstayed your welcome" feeling too, I got called a "thread hog" once!
And its true, there are many ways people can spend their time...I actually think foruming can be healthy...if you are enjoying it.6 -

I usually burn out pretty quick on social media in general. I've been getting better about it but I'm definitely a proponent of breaks, at the minimum.4
