It's comments like these that make me wish lemmy had a react feature. Perfect place to drop one of these suckers: ♥️

I guess I wasn't specific enough. 😅 Borderline is kind of just difficult to treat; what I said was my attempt at explaining why. At least, as I understand it. Yes, therapists can give you very useful skills and knowledge; not knocking them at all. (Ok maybe a little. One of them did have me kidnapped...)

But ultimately what people with BPD need is a healthy relationship, and that's just not something a therapist can provide. (Unless they want to lose their license I guess. 🤷)

But anyway thanks for the kind words. :)

You know, I've heard that the barter system, as a foundation of economics, is essentially made up. Like, obviously people barter, but the idea that it was a universal precursor to money was essentially invented by capitalists in the industrial era, who never could have dreamed of the myriad interesting ways thar people distributed wealth!

Apparently one of the more common ones was a sort of "gifting" system, where people just gave each other what they needed. 🤷 But of course this wasn't universal either.

I think I understand; you don't want your friend to see you at your worst. I hope that since you posted this you've gotten better self esteem at your job. 🫶

The truth is always important.

That's what the call is for- you ask the local office if they can confirm that that officer is actually on patrol, exists, etc. Idk how that would work for ICE though; I don't think you can just call up the federal ICE headquarters.

I remember watching a Simpsons episode about how deadly big cars are back when I was like, young. At least 15 years ago. We've known this for so long, how is it so difficult to just set a maximum height commuter vehicles?

(It's a rhetorical question, but it anyone has an actual answer then count me curious.)

This was actually a pretty good read.

Honestly I wonder if maybe some of those comments are bots.

Crown Royal is Canadian. 🤷 Not sure if it's available where you are though.

They're labeled by type; one of those types happens to just be called "yellow." It's smooth and vinegary. Good on hot dogs and burgers.
