Oh, I'm not saying take them to group therapy. It's just that it happens a lot in that setting.
JFLD is *not* going to like this one 😅

Two words: Group. Therapy.
I'm immensely grateful for the help and support it's provided but holy hell this happens a dozen times a session.

Yeah, I'm east coast US. I am by no means an expert lol. My photo app suggested the match, and I cross checked it with Wikipedia. If it's not right, it's close at least.

There's no reason to try and appear strong and "well functioning" towards your doctor like you are probably used to doing for everyone else.
Just wanted to add onto this something I only recently found out about myself, and I can't imagine I'm alone in this. There really isn't a "mask off" version of "me," because I started so early and it's been so long (I'm in my 40s). I basically grew around the mask. When the mask is gone, it's shattered. What's left of "me" at that point is just a quivering pile of trauma, repression, guilt/shame, and maladaptive coping skills. There's no in-between, just high- and non-functioning.
Yes, I am in therapy working on it. Double yes, it makes it difficult for anyone to believe that there's anything amiss until I break. Tis no fun.
Leaned my car seat back and realized I had an unexpected visitor. I believe it's a [familiar jumping spider](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platycryptus_undatus). Not sure when or how it got in but there's not much to eat in here. Our lunches are similar in that regard 🫥

That's being generous. It's mildly spicy paste. There's probably more meat in a single small breakfast link than in an entire brick of scrapple.

it would be amazing if the god of that religion would occasionally pop onto the planet and remind everybody that they exist, maybe give us the bread and circuses show to catch us back up, maybe throw out a couple of worldwide hey I forgive everybody's and then pop back off just to remind us.
A thousand years without a reappearance of the God of all gods is a long time to keep the torch burning.

I appreciate all of the discourse. But I would like to clarify that the OP clearly states that one's Smash main is how they are in the sheets. As someone who does not play Smash, that means I do not exist in the sheets. Whatever the proper terminology is, fair is fair, and I accept my fate.

...just as long as everyone knows that IRL I have lots and lots of sex ~sometimes~. With actual people. Sometimes more than one. This is all very true and I totally would not lie on the internet.

The countable pixels and questionable color accuracy of the image mean that could definitely be a white grape. Which I would infinitely prefer over a whole green olive. I would eat the grape, even though it's weird on pizza. I'd take that olive right off, or maybe eat around it.
Gotta draw the line somewhere.

I've got a theory of my own: anyone afraid of being "replaced" isn't that great, and should actually be replaced. Bigots, feel free to go back where you came from.

Good info but definitely has Monty Python energy: 
Any ideas on what kind of spider this is? Main body is a little over 1cm long, location is US, northeast coast.
Not sure it was worth the hour drive plus the hour wait in line, but at least we got out of the house. Pickings were slim, with most of the exclusives gone even though we got there early. They had tons of the HG Destroy, which hurt to pass on but the budget ain't what it used to be 😅😒 
...this is one I'm actually considering trying. Lizalfos tails in particular. Dunno why they needed to be so rare (and so many required for upgrades).
His name is Tingle btw.
...45 minutes of glitch chaining. Just... how.
### Steps taken: 1. Wake up 2. Pop bloons 3. Get out of bed (only when biologically necessary) 4. Take pills 5. Eat breakfast 6. Sit on toilet 7. Watch half a dozen videos on how to Do Thing 8. Rest aching back by laying down 9. Watch half a dozen videos about how to maybe not Do Thing and Do Better Thing instead (that will definitely take more than the day of work I had allowed for it, be backbreaking, and something I have never done before, but will also be more permanent and beneficial in the long run) 10. Discuss Thing with spouse 11. Nod off 12. Open Big Box Hardware Store app and put supplies in cart 13. Price compare Do Thing and Do Better Thing 14. Fret about day getting late 15. Get out of bed when absolutely biologically necessary 16. Eat dinner 17. Watch videos unrelated to Thing 18. Post about it on lemmy as I watch the sun go down # Still left to do: 1. Thing 
You know how some videos really get in the weeds when it comes to technical stuff? This video is almost all weeds lol. But it was fascinating to watch Timber stack glitch upon glitch and find the timing windows necessary to skip getting all of the GSI abilities (with the exception of amiibo). ::: spoiler Obligatory I have no idea how people have the time, dedication, patience, and ingenuity to figure this stuff out. :::
