Many depressed/suicidal folks often do give themselves to a cause or calling. Depression isn’t just the episodic spiral you see portrayed as depression, it’s also the hard fought days where only you can see your struggle. Along with therapy, exercise, and medication, “faking it til you make it” is the treatment plan, allowing yourself the freedom to try to function and feel better. And from experience, living for others is one of the easiest ways to push yourself to make an effort.

Unless you mean “dedicate their life to a random cause” as in “at least take someone awful with you”. That’s generally frowned upon advice, but I definitely understand the sentiment more than I wish.

Electively suffering hardship? Billionaires first, set a good example for the rest of us, and the hardship can trickle down.

Everyone else is right. Try to line something new up first. But I was once in the position of quitting without something lined up, and the decider for me was that if I didn’t quit, I was likely to actually take my own life. It’s a matter of perspective at that point, and clearly, surviving was the better option.

I’m not trying to bully people into voting, just making sure that this dangerously short sighted bullshit doesn’t go unchallenged. Thank you for proving my point.

And given that American voters exist in a 2 party system, nobody should be under the illusion that they have any other choice. Don’t encourage people to delude themselves into thinking there is a better alternative. They’re right, you’re right, what’s the best option?

One side must bring peace to the middle east, the other side is allowed to tell Israel to kill Palestinians faster.

And before someone comes defending their stance not to vote for either genocidal enabler, why aren’t you trying to save as many people as possible? Are you ok with more people dying because of your ideals? Enjoy living with that choice if he wins.

If they were regulated as a common carrier, wouldn’t this be a non issue for them? Shame they fought that so hard, it seems like it would have saved them some money.

I hope someone gives him the advice that he should consider refusing treatment, given the fact that he won’t live long enough to be a free man with or without the treatment. He’s lived his life, and left his legacy, now he needs to leave this world.

That’s kinda what I meant, and its something I’m rather worried about.

This shit is somewhat agreeable now, because Pal World is so similar, but once this door is opened, it’s never going to let developers have the freedom to invent and innovate, because crusty old bullies want to use the legal system to punish anyone that dares resemble 2-3 decade old game mechanics.

Should platformer games pay royalties to Nintendo for having the first character to jump twice it’s height?

Video game companies rent seeking for “game mechanics patents” on old shit is just ironically anti fun.

I just remembered MrBabyMan. Turns out he’s still an animation editor for Disney stuff, if anyone is curious. Wonder how he feels about social media in general now.

I mean, it’s all fictitious headcanon, I’m on board with this one.

“And as God declared homosexuality a sin, he made his second mistake, because their over representation led to a fabulous revolution. Fighting back against homophobic demons and damned souls, and freely inviting the homosexual demons into their territory, they created a vibrant new hell… With blackjack, and hookers.”

Nope, definitely the gays. Did you know they collectively stole the rainbow from god? Scandalous.

You know, this actually seems kind of fun. Fly this and a BLM flag, and anyone who it pisses off is pretty clearly admitting that their “heritage” actually is just pride in racism and homophobia.

I kind of did the opposite. I assumed the change would be negligible or in the customer’s benefit based on Valve’s track record. I hope this never changes.

They have. And for any remaining plants they are dropping liverwurst from production.

What we really need is better proactive safety inspections in food production, and jail time for production management and company leadership in the case of negligently unsanitary practices, like the ones found in this facility.

We won’t get it, though. Regulations are bad for business, and you can’t hurt the job creators… but that’s kind of the point of regulations. They are there to make not following the letter of the law more impactful than following it.

No no, let’s see where he’s going with this.

It’s amazing how the political group with an obvious Nazi problem has become more pro-judaism than the ADL. I bet it’s confusing the hell out of their voter base.

What if I’m an open minded carnist, but also enjoy dramatic internet flame wars?
