They'll regenerate like starfish. Infinite switches!

I wish I had a house so I could do some of the things mentioned in this thread. Apartments are so blah and I'd love to have a yard or appliances or something.

I was just going to answer that I need to buy a vacuum cleaner but they're even expensive used 🤷

Not a whole lot in terms of creative hobbies, but I've been pretty consistent at the gym this week 💪 I'm in a bit of a slump wrt strength building so I should probably take some time to rework my routine, but I've proved to myself that I can still physically be there even when my life is hectic.

Also did my second D&D session, using a pre-made character sheet. Gonna try to learn what the hell I'm doing and make my own character soon. :)

Shirley's getting braver in her cat harness, although she still has her moments. She's terrified of people which is causing issues, neighbors just living their lives and she makes a scene trying to strangle herself on the leash or run into traffic.

Starting today I'm going to start carrying treats with me while walking her, and offer them to the neighbors to give to her. I'm thinking maybe if I find a flavor she really likes, and she only ever gets it from the neighbors, that might help her warm up to them.

She doesn't need to be besties with anyone, but if she ever escapes again, I don't want her to run from anyone who would recognize her.

You don't have any clocks in your house or your car? Not even on your microwave?

I guess I don't have any self control. I'm horrible for scrolling on my phone all day. If I needed it to know what time it is, or had to keep it in the bedroom to use as an alarm clock, I'd be toast.

I don't think they're all taught that, I think my church was just paranoid and insane, tbh.

And they never outright said it was the entire "voice", but that pointed to so many individual things, I felt like it was. It was easier to reject any kind of negative emotions or complicated thoughts or unfamiliar opinions as some kind of outside attack than to really sit with them.

I guess it's not really relevant to the conversation at hand, other than pointing out that christians can be all different types of dysfunctional :p

I loved flying when I did it a couple years ago, but I doubt I'll ever do it again. Almost a grand to visit the other side of the US... I wish I was rich, I'd take a vacation every year and I'd fly every time.

You guys were taught that it was god?? I was taught it was always satan or some lesser demon lying to me.

+1 also it's a crime that I can't just start driving and never stop for the rest of my life and see what places exist forever

Had a woman invite me out to karaoke, but I don't think we're compatible long term so I'm taking notes from this thread.

Could also do The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh theme, another actually good song that reverts the crowd to sleepy five-year-olds

I have hangups about a cluttered house and neglected belongings. Kind of getting over it, but in the meantime I go for photos, as well as flat things such as postcards or prints from local artists that can fit on a scrapbook page :)
