Growing up I was surrounded by so many people with undiagnosed mental illness mine seemed trivial.
  • I mentioned that i had concerns about myself when i was about 12. It wasn't dismissed, but it was clear that attempting to address it at that time would be too difficult. I keep it put away as much as i can, only mentioning the intrusive thoughts when i can play it as a joke - not sure if that feels better or worse. After 40 years, I'm finally beginning to recognize the tendency towards self sabotage but still struggle with not giving in to it.

  • Is there a best order to do gradual renovations in?
  • Wow! That was great! Have any tips for a major foundation and plumbing repair? Will replace flooring afterwards. My current house has concrete, which i love, but I'm worried about doing that in the fountain repair house. Thoughts?

  • Abortion foes strategize to get Trump to ban some abortions while keeping his pledge
  • I have no idea. Despite living in Texas, I don't really know very many of them. The two or three that I do know are coworkers, so don't really want to destroy that relationship by taking about it. I would sort of like to find a couple of people to ask, but I don't know if I can stop myself from screaming, " what the fuck is wrong with you??"

  • If you are an American, how are you preparing for the upcoming tariffs and possible trade war?
  • Business won't let him do most of that. It was just loud fake superficial concepts of plans . His real task is staying in power. I think our biggest concern now is loss of immigrants.

    ETA- i was initially pretty concerned and wanted to really cut back spending and increase savings. We will likely do some of that, but we're still planning little holiday trips and doing work on the house.

    She was my mom's. Very sweet but she causes a cat fight every day and i have to cover my bed with a solar blanket to keep her from pottying on it.

    How can i annoy my stupid bitch boss?

    I work in a public school district and i visit about a dozen different schools. Bosses are making us share our calendars, thinking they'll be able to track us and catch us doing something wrong. I'm planning to add "started my period" every couple of weeks. Are there other good outlook tricks to fuck with them?

    ETA- This is my work calendar, not my personal calendar. I know that seems reasonable but it's being done as a petty micromanagement tactic. There are about 20 of us in my department who drive from school to school every day working with kids with physical disabilities. They don't just want to know when we're in meetings - they want every minute of our day to be accounted for - 8 to 830 school A, 840 to 11 school B, etc. I go to 14 schools. If my kid at school A is absent or if i get a call from school J that i need to stop by to fix a wheelchair, am I supposed to pull over and update my calendar so they can find me? I could spend an hour a day in parking lots editing my calendar. Most days i eat lunch in my car between schools. Last year they made a rule that we can't carry to-go cups because it looks like we have enough free time to drive thru Starbucks. It's just to be controlling.

    How much privacy would i be sacrificing to have my work email on my personal phone?

    I'm non-techy. I work for a public school district and visit with kids in about a dozen schools. I like having my work email on my phone so teachers can get in touch if they need me. For years we've just used the outlook app with no real issues that I've noticed. We're seeing more and more micromanagement and it sucks. We recently got notice that we have to install Cisco Duo on our phones if we want to have our email on it. Should i do that? Or just say no and be ok with being out of contact?

    I did an ATIA webinar today and learned about the Mouthpad.

    It's like a dental retainer with a touchpad to control devices with your tongue.

    What should I buy?

    Sorry if this is not the right community for this. In the US. I currently have a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The air suspension was awesome, but now that it's failing it's driving me crazy so I'm looking for something new. I haul wheelchairs and similarly- sized stuff for work so i need some cargo space. I'd love an SUV with second row captains seats and no third row. Does anyone make that? I'm leaning away from American cars, but can be swayed (my last two cars were Camaro and Jeep). I like things that look a little sporty with little/no chrome, a good amount of hp, and AWD is a plus. I usually drive 10-30 miles per day and get a $60/mo stipend- so about one tank of gas right now. I've browsed the websites for the new 4runner, Outback, Forester, Santa Fe, and a few others. Appreciate any ideas or opinions.

    ETA- 6 months ago the dealer wanted $9k to replace the air suspension, so i went to a small Goodyear shop for $6k instead. That shop was bought by brakes plus and they won't honor any warranty. Dropped it at the dealer for diag this morning. Just got a call - $4800. I was expecting $9k. Now I'm on the fix it/trade it fence.

    Friend was asked to draw a hand turkey.

    Oops! Friend reported this is not his. When he sent it to me i thought it was original . He was sharing it to me because he thought it was cool. Super kudos to the original artist. Sorry!

    I don't really like Grandscape so that's kind of a turn off. It looks cool for a sporting event but I'm sure tickets and concessions are $$$. I would go for a planetarium or nature show if it was reasonably priced.

    Who do they think they are?

    If you use "they" to describe a nameless group of people and you mean anyone other than The Man (That's how they get you.), you're probably the one who's wrong.

    Looking forward to reading some fun exceptions.

    This is really difficult

    You don't realize how weird lyrics are until you try to get an image that reflects them. I tried two Elton John songs in Craiyon and got scary monsters.

    App or community for "Is this AI?"

    I'm not great at determining when something is AI. Is there an app or community for asking if an image is real or AI?
