And that’s basically it!
Jesus Christ that’s the worst website I’ve had the displeasure to visit all year :(
I learned of the below site recently to help avoid paywalls and crappy websites etc
Garfield, the animated orange cat, famously hates Mondays.
Actually top-notch journalism. There's that one fucker out there who still didn't know who Garfield was.
That's me! Didn't realize they ever animated Garfield. Always thought he existed in panel cartoons only.
The Garf has been in animated form since 1988.
The message from the Elmo account, the follow-up and the Sesame Street account linking mental health resources is some of the most wholesome stuff I've seen in a while.
It's easy to get in your feelings, and it would've been easy for a social media "win" to play into the doom and gloom or to add to it. Or even to ignore it! But the people responsible for those decisions definitely count as some of Mister Rogers' helpers. I'm grateful for that.
If you are really experiencing anxiety, stress, addiction and/or dread, sometimes it's important to get it out there, acknowledge your situation and don't try to hide it from yourself and pretend everything is fine. Then get yourself the support you need from others and also try to change things, but recognizing the signs is a first step.
What I need is for the people creating problems in my life to get their shit together and fucking stop. No amount of support from others will achieve that.
A real time peak at what happens many years after selling out the health of your citizens so that insurers can generate money off of misery.
Been looking at therapists for my teenage daughter, she’s been debating therapy for a couple of years and has recently fully committed.
We have good insurance and are financially secure, and holy shit it’s still going to cost an extraordinary amount. I don’t understand how anyone struggling with financial insecurity could even consider having access to therapy as an option.
What a fundamentally broken system, there is not a single type of care that exists that is accessible to the people who need it.
Just wait for the 23AndMe liquidation sale.
They're financially fucked and your genome is going to get sold out to advertisers and life insurance companies.
Life insurance? Pfft biochemical and pharma more like.
Monsanto!
That site always sounded like a poly dating site to me. Is the domain for sale?
And I just thought I'd reply to say thats 1 of the countless issues facing average people today.
