I loved working most days until 12 or 1 in the office, coming home and refocusing on "my" part of my workday. Just enough office, not too much. Sadly now I am glued into a windowless room with a camera on me. Major dissatisfaction, huh.

We did two group shroom trips with my friend who died of cancer earlier this month. They did help with the weight and anxiety of it, I think for all of us. But it only softened the blow a bit, took some of the edge off and allowed us to focus more in the remaining months on new experiences and thoughts rather than ruminating.

They tried ketamine a few times on his deathbed but I think he was on too much morphine to benefit from that.

We used to have that, Trump 45 ripped it up.

I told them their "MEN DON'T POST HERE" posts on the frontpage are hostile, which is the reaction they got from a half dozen folks who were talking about the subject. I talked about my experience as a gay man, wanting more community here on Lemmy, but that I wouldn't start communities or threads saying "NO STRAIGHT PEOPLE POST HERE" to do it. And I pointed out their community has decided there are only two ways to deal with it.

I get that I broke their rule, and I can be banned there for that - but they didn't ban me for being a man, they banned me for hurting their feelings.

And now I can't use LGBTQ and Trans communities as a result. OK, fuck turtlesareneat, he shouldn't be allowed in queer communities cause he hurt a mod's feelings.

No they're talking the wealth of the 1%, which is not the infrastructure of the US.

I pretend (in a non-grotesque sort of way) that the other person is "dead" to me and that I could "summon" them with a "seance" (text) but it'd be terribly unnatural and there'd be an awful price to pay.

Basically if I make my breakup Practical Magic, it helps somehow heh

They got the headline they wanted.

They did in this case, too.

Trump still playing the media like a fiddle.

Just a reminder, you can get your and your loved ones' immunity to various things tested and boosted now while there's still time. I found out I am no longer immune to measles at 42 and am getting boostered as there's a kid in my life.

Yep food pantries will repackage food but rarely process or cook it because that's a whole different animal.

But, many food pantries I've worked with had ways to offload large amounts of things creatively, it's how I got the best pear gelato I've ever had in my life.
