Coffee = brain wants to nap, body is vibrating too hard to relax.

Hey, for once an obscure reference I understand!

I've been in two abusive relationships as an adult. Two years with a woman who I'm pretty sure had BPD. Five years with a man who hits all the markers for NPD. This tracks, based on my anecdotal experience.

I'm only a mensa genius

There's your problem. You need to be a stable genius for any of it to make sense.

The ultimate irony is that the first popular incel support community was started by a woman.

That's pretty much where I'm at as well. My riding is currently blue, and every piece of mass-mail propaganda I've gotten from the current MP has used a lot of words to say an awful lot of nothing.

I've generally voted NDP, but they need to make some leadership changes. I don't believe that the current NDP leadership would be effective in handling the overgrown toddler running the show in the US, and PP would hand us to him on a silver platter. I don't actively dislike Carney so far, so at least that's something.

Eggs are a staple food and an ingredient in an absolute fuck ton of things. They're also very nutrient-dense and a major source of protein for vegetarians and people who can't eat meat. Sure, you can just not buy eggs but that's not realistic for everyone and it doesn't stop the price of everything that includes eggs as an ingredient from going up.

  • I get to drive my very nice new-to-me car on ~1500 km of fun mountain highways next week
  • I'm taking a weaving class in a few weeks
  • My grandmother's 100th birthday is next month
  • My best friend is coming to visit for the first time in three years this summer, then I'm flying back with her to spend a couple of weeks in her city

I have never spent more time pretending to be busy than when I've had to work in an office. And god help the person who drags me away from what I'm doing every five minutes for "meetings".

True, but the context of the original comment was the federal level, with Alberta being the blue patch in a sea of (federal) red.

Pretty sure they meant red, as in Liberal Party red, as opposed to CPC blue.

I've always had a hard time using a controller with the tank controls, but I love the keyboard controls (I may be in the minority here). Worth trying if you're playing on PC.
