You forgot the frame where he starts talking about his problems and the frame after where he is told to stop trauma dumping.

Nah, see, the flaming skull is actually a good person and willing to lend an ear, despite not having any.

Dr.Noggingblaze, therapist.

True, Rarely anyone wantsnto actually know how you have been. Just a question to start a conversation like a greeting.

So I just default to "fine" or "it has to" (makes more sense in german).

Depending on how well I know the person I'll say something like "slowly going insane, but it's fine"

You're so visibly not okay that a flaming, disembodied skull is asking if you're okay.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Honestly given all the shit I've been dealing with the past couple of weeks, yeah. If a disembodied flaming skull appeared at this point I'd just be like "sigh alright. What now?"

Skull: “I’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty.”

I'd like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn.

Bro, I didn't even realize it was you who posted this.

Also, same.

You have no idea how common this sentiment is lol I'm everywhere.

Sending hugs though buddy

Most of the Lemmy community cares for you, friend. That's gotta mean something.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn't say most lol I only post in the meme-y area, and even then that's specific. But it does mean something. Honored, all the time, when someone reacts with "Holy shit, Stamets!" stuff. Even more so if I'm just talking with them. There are a couple people I talk with on Discord that at first acted like I was a celebrity. I just post memes to distract from my own problems. The fact anyone cares is deeply deeply humbling. Trust me on that <3

Doesn't matter where you post, you are creating/posting content on a new platform. So, we care about you! You are a valuable member of our communities.

Well crap, my answer. Has been uhh I guess for quite awhile. I though that counted.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

I go with “relatively speaking”. No one asks what it’s related to.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

I'm sorry but I saw "ButtPoems" and now all I can hear is a Jazz Fart Trumpet.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Power hug for y'all! 🤗

In that case nobody is ok, so it's not a very useful term.
