Son broke my favourite mug. And he then threw my phone at my wrist, which hit my watch and scratched the phone screen. Yeah, its been a fun one.

dingus ,

How old is your son??

Turned 2 a few weeks back. I think we're entering, or have just entered the terrible twos. Fun fun fun.

dingus , in How is your week starting?

It's ok so far! We are trying to stay caught up at work while understaffed. I am trying to complete a "couch to 5k" app and today I managed to get to midway through "week 4" in the app (although I just try to do it every other day or every two days, so the weeks don't necessarily correspond). I hate running, but people say exercise is good for mental health, so I'm working on it. The running sucks but I like being able to check off the progress each time I do it lol. I'm working on trying to buy myself a smartwatch as a treat and to keep me motivated. Found a clearance deal on the model I'm interested in at a Walmart like an hour away from me lol. We'll see if I'm able to pick it up or if it'll be out of stock!

Sprint planning :(

BonesOfTheMoon , in How is your week starting?

Bronchitis still, yuck. I'm like dried up mostly but I've never been so wiped out. I also have no appetite.

Just wondering, does anyone have any interest in a community just for interesting articles? Like not news, but sort of like Metafilter.

Elaine ,

I would like that

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Thank you. I would like somewhere to just post random interesting articles.

ghost_towels ,

I would also like that!

Edit to say I also hope you feel better quick. Bronchitis is the worst.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Thank you! I'm so worn out is part of it.

I will start this community then. I would just like a place for people to post simply interesting articles.

Hope your condition improves soon and I'd be down for joining such a community.

BonesOfTheMoon ,

Thank you! I'll keep everyone posted.

BonesOfTheMoon , in Is there anything on tv that isnt sex and violence

I really like Somebody Somewhere, it's hard to describe but it's basically two middle aged people finding their way through life in Kansas. I also LOVE Reservation Dogs.

Considering Mother Nature made the last minute decision to literally rain on our parade during the eclipse, a little peeved to say the least.

Sorry to hear!

Not bad. Usual work stuff. But I’ve also entered a conceptualization phase of possibly starting my own business. I just had a logo made, and I’m digging it.

Well done!

Panties , in How is your week starting?

Scheduled two exams today. Had 4 days to prep for them, was super stressed but I managed to pass both! Going to take it easy for the rest of the week.

Well done, you've earned the take-it-easier time!

Wow, I wish something thought of me as much as you think of Flying Squid.

cAUzapNEAGLb , in Is FlyingSquid Some Kind of Rage-Bait Account?

It's a real douche move to question a person's illness publicly this way.

If you actually care, DM them or respond in the comments. Otherwise just downvote their post, move on, or block them.

Don't broadcast your drama like a toddler.

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

User has told me, everybody in the 5+ threads, and god herself that they "aren't a doctor" so, nah mate

Kolanaki ,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

Are you a doctor?

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

Yep, I can tell you with 100% certainty he's got CHS

Kolanaki ,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

I guess all the other doctors he has seen IRL must suck. I mean, you're able to diagnose someone without actually seeing them or examining them, and those others can't figure out what's wrong with all the tests they've performed. /s

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

He has a 6th post about clowning on the mayo clinic, so yeah, I agree lmao.

DoctorButts ,

I'm a doctor

walden ,

Generally I would agree with you, but given Squids efforts at publicizing his ordeal I'd say everything is fair game.

eya , in Is FlyingSquid Some Kind of Rage-Bait Account?

ragebait account posts asking if an account is a ragebait account

classic

almar_quigley , in Is FlyingSquid Some Kind of Rage-Bait Account?

What a waste of a post. Like so much so it needs to be pointed out and not just downvoted.

hypoproteinosis96 OP ,

The dude has decided to kill himself instead of seeking the help he needs. This needs to be said.

almar_quigley ,

What are you expecting everyone else to do about this? I mean, we’re all strangers on the internet and you don’t even know if they’re being honest or not. There’s no real relationship here.

alilbee , in Is FlyingSquid Some Kind of Rage-Bait Account?

Just block him? I'm not a big fan of reading a medical issue blog either, so I just blocked him and everything is fine. No offense intended to Mr Squid either, medical issues are just stressful to read about all the time.

Last night I dreamed that I climbed into a helium-inflated rubber raft and had a nap bobbing against the ceiling of an indoor market. Good dream.

Elaine , in How is your week starting?

So far so good! I didn’t think I’d get to see the eclipse at work today but one of my peers swung by my desk with some viewing glasses and said “go check it out!” I don’t dig going into the office but at least I get to work with good people.

Must've been quite the sight! How lucky were you to see the eclipse and have such lovely co-workers 😊
