    What's your relationship with your family like?

    It could be different with distance, as not having you on hand all the time would make you much less accessible. When I think toxic I think poison, and a lot of a poison thing is going to kill you (wear you down, hurt you, make life worse) but in small doses may not have much of an effect at...

    Post your picture thread

    I was looking through the thread and realized no one has posted a picture here all year! It's probably been like 7 years between photos for me, so I figured it must have been my turn :p And I'm cutting my hair soon, so a picture of what it used to look like might be nice.

    rate the last film you watched

    Bohemian Rhapsody. It was good, I watched Rocketman before I saw this one and was pleasantly surprised as Bohemian Rhapsody was much better.

    What happened to SPW?

    It's funny, these types of threads have popped up consistently for probably a half decade now - and they're not wrong, every time it has been slower than the past. It's so relative though, I was curious how active a site like SAS was, so I read one of their threads on how slow their site is, and...

    How are you feeling?

    Well, my parents are finally separating. I thought it would be relief I would feel as its been a long time coming, but the immediate feeling I have is stress. I think my father is going to be a drama queen about it which is probably where most of the stress is coming from. But there's also what...

    An article that opened my eyes a little

    I too am someone who can be very susceptible to falling into the sarcasm trap too much. This particular piece of advice the article offered is one of the things I have personally found the most success with in the past. My sarcasm almost always devolves into bitterness, and when I allow myself...

    Religious debate

    In of itself, I don't think I'd disagree. But I think there are a lot of things we want to happen but can't put effort into even if we wanted to - things completely out of our control. I also think you can hope and wish for things while also putting the effort in independently. Like I could see...

    Religious debate

    I think to some people it may be the same as hoping or wishing about something they don't have any control over. Like if you have a beach day planned, you might really hope that it doesn't rain and ruin your day. Even someone who doesn't believe a wish on a shooting star is going to keep the...

    Do you still live at home?

    Yes, I do still live at home although I was away 4 years while at school. I'm 27 and have been back home since I was 22. My initial reasoning was to stabilize all aspects of my life, although at this point the only aspect left to stabilize is my finances. I do have an income and revenue streams...

    How are you feeling?

    I know that was a vent post and perhaps only the bad qualities are being presented, but there are some things you mentioned that sound like they should never be ok, like calling you a fatty. If he says something like that, he's thinking it, and if he's thinking that way about his girlfriend...

    How are you feeling?

    Living with a drunk father has been taking a greater toll on me lately. I'm constantly finding myself trying to identify all the things that brought him to this point, because as a kid he never drank. Like as if knowing would sadden me less. I am almost angry after he watched his own mother die...

    How would you rate your stress?

    4/10. I'm not stressed at the current moment, but the repercussions of taking things a little too easy and letting myself fall out of good habits are on my mind

    Post your random thoughts/feelings etc

    I am currently sporting the riff raft look a little more than I would like to admit XD. I agree that what you do matters as well although I did explicitly say the opposite. I think they go hand in hand a bit, like to do things that are productive you have to do them in a productive way. I look...

    Post your random thoughts/feelings etc

    In my thinking, I constantly find myself running into the same dead end. I'll have moments where I will have a sort of epiphany or a reminder of a previously realized effective mentality, like today when looking at my hair. I have long hair, but am starting to bald pretty prominently in the...
