    I mentioned it in the other thread, but I'm currently being consumed by the news of my cousin's partner and his choice of suicide. Worried about my family in that part of the world (I know they'll support my cousin 100% and help her two kids get through this). I'm just struggling to w rap my head around it, even though suicidal ideation and acting on it is something I've attempted in the past. It's still really foreign to me when I learn of someone I know attempting and/or succeeding at it. Mental health is so important and so few get the help they need or even seek out help when they know they need it (for so many reasons).

    It's just so... heartbreaking.

    its a terrible, terrible thing to happen.. thoughts and positive vibes to you and yours.. 😔

    It's like in Vietnam, you don't even want to know the names of the replacements, because odds are, their days and numbered and you want to avoid the emotional pain of losing them.

    Why do you think anything will change?? That's not what they said in the notice.

    I just want them to fix all the bugs with the site so I can actually access it when needed to input food/exercise and not sit around waiting for three days to be able to access my diary. :neutral:

    I got into a little fender bender today.

    .... totally my fault.

    I was distracted and rear ended the car directly in front of me.

    We touch bumpers and the driver of the car jumps out and runs back to me.

    The thing is, to my surprise, the other driver was a dwarf.

    He approached my car and shouted "I am not Happy!" .

    My only reply was: "Okay, great... then which one are you??"

    To the dad joke thread with you 🙄🤪

    All I can think of is..

    You better hope you don't have to pee when you're wearing that... And if you do, that you don't have to use a stall! Hahahaha

    It's so pretty, I'd feel like a goddess in it. Sigh.

    Oh to feel like a goddess again!

    If I rewatch old lifting pr videos... Will that motivate me to try (yet) again?

    I am on the verge of stepping back into my basement gym, and yet even though I have the opportunity... I still hesitate. Gah!

    i think the best part of this being election day (and maybe even election week, or heck, election month, depending on how things go)- is that it might finally make them quit reporting on covid test results for a day or two at least

    I'm just mostly looking forward to no longer seeing annoying political ads on YouTube when I use the TV instead of my computer.
