@AmpBenzScientist Office politics.

@AmpBenzScientist Yeah, but I've noticed that it can *increase* my stress level if I'm under pressure or I'm sick. If I have a stomach cramp, it makes it worse, for example. If you have that stress lump in your stomach, it intensifies it. That's my experience anyway. Also applies to other stimulants I've tried for ADHD. Tenses you up in some cases. Works better for me if I'm low and an upper is needed.

Life's too short. Youth is over in the blink of an eye.

Some people know exactly what to do and have academic, professional and romantic success at an early age. Those popular people and those perfect couples; the prince and the princess.

Then there's the rest of us. If you belong to this group, consider yourself lucky if you get married with kids, but otherwise have a very boring life. This is the most common way of making it through safe.

If you're unlucky: prison, alcoholism, suicide, traffic accident, cancer, stroke; domestic abuse, mental disorder, disability, etc.

You don't decide to end up in that last group. No one wants to be in that group. So it's luck. It's a lottery. It's not fair.

Been craving snus less lately and my gums don't like it. I tried one anyway just now and it made me very lightheaded and my stomach started hurting. I think I've been using it less because I'm not reacting well to it anymore. I guess it's a good opportunity to quit using it altogether, as a friend of mine pointed out. There are certain kinds of abuse that your body tolerates less with time, as I've discovered.

(A nice day at the unemployment office...)

Unemployed: So, you guys are the government, right?

Case processor: Yes. 🙂​

Unemployed: The government hires lots of people. Why don't you give me one of those jobs? 👉

Case processor: Haha, no! it doesn't work like that, I'm afraid. 😄​

Unemployed: Why not? 😐​

Case processor: You'll have to apply like everyone else. ☝️​

Unemployed: But why wouldn't the government prioritise unemployed people when it tires to fill positions? 😬🤷‍♂️

Case processor: You would have to ask a politician about that. 😅

Unemployed: I tried, but they won't answer my emails. 💀

Acting carelessly is pretty easy when you don't feel that you matter, and never did, because no one ever invests in you.

Please reboost!
