A client's delivery tracking resulted in "Your item was delivered to your requested Safeplace", which was worrying because I'd specified an address and I'm not, if the tabloids are to be believed, an active 20 year old proto man-lesbian leftist art student in our universities railing against opinions other than mine.
- You offended at least one man-lesbianGnash
- haha, i saw :)
As a proto man-lesbian, i am slightly less beta cuck though, so *holds cards*Nairn - lol, there's such a bilge spurge of new terms these days - it's hard to keep up. Coronoidalism's shat out so many ne memes in itself.Nairn
- man-lesbian is just shorthand for a male feminist. We have a few of those on QBNcherub

Today — whilst filling in yet another online CV for a headhunting firm — I realised that I made a grave mistake on my CV. I'd listed two different roles as having the same start date.
Which means that I've been spending the last ten months sending an erronious CV dozens upon dozens of times like a fucking numpty, and asking myself why I haven't gotten any interviews, except for the one last week.
It's moments like this I want to throw myself off my 4th floor balcony onto the pavement below, after slashing both wrists with my sharpest chef's knife. But, knowing my luck, I'd fuck that up, too.
- I'll just downvote myself for being an absolutely stupid cunt.Continuity
- upvoted bcs you're NOT a stupid cunt and don't be that hard on yourself. mistakes are ok as long as you learn something from them.renderedred
- If you do, I hope you fuck up - not like "fuck up and smash your spine and be incapacitated for the rest of your life" fuck up, just "walk away" fuck up.Nairn
- Which is to say, what renderererer erererd said, you daft bugger.Nairn
- You're exaggerating. If not = good news you found the errordrgs

Finally came up with a useful project during Corona times. I will improve my stretching. I am not so flexible and always wanted to change it, but then I was too lazy. Now, it's time. I will be doing splits in 2021 (jk).
- Good luck on this... I made plans of exercising more, reduce my alcohol intake and let the smokes for ever...OBBTKN
- You can imagine how it's going!! ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯OBBTKN
- I'll let you know...SimonFFM
- stretching in the morning + 1.5 hours exercise + long walk a day does great for me.renderedred

I'm confused. I did a last minute ply-cutting job a couple of weeks ago - press letters that would be used to make prints that would be go in a book, including decorating its cover.
I did the job the week before last. The job is on sale on Amazon and there are already used copies for sale.
wat?

I was telling my mother about my hackintosh woes (i’m upgrading and it’s being a cunt, as they do) and she decided to buy me a new iMac. She sprang for this ethernet option, despite my telling her i don’t know anything about it:
“The 10Gb Ethernet option supports Nbase-T industry-standard 1Gb, 2.5Gb, 5Gb, and 10Gb network speeds using an RJ-45 connector. With 10Gb Ethernet, iMac will provide higher connectivity bandwidth for sharing files between desktops, working with high-performance network storage, or handling large-capacity data loads.”
I’ve never heard of this; i’m gonna need a special kind of ISP account to take advantage of it, right? Or will i just magically get better speeds? i’m already pulling torrents down at around 8-9 mb/s on other computers
- Or is this for local networks?scarabin
- Local network. If you have a local file server it means you can open big files faster.
Will not make your internet faster.monNom - Can I borrow your mum?Continuity
- I'll give her back, I promise. Just that my MBP is from mid-2014, you see.Continuity
- Ohh, okay. Will the other machines on my network need this feature to see file transfer speed improvements on the iMac?scarabin
- You'll need a router that supports that kind of speed and, yes, your other computers would need to have the same tech. There's an off chance you'd have tozarkonite
- upgrade your wiring. It has to be IEEE802.3ch compatible.zarkonite
- Lol continuityscarabin
- Okay, cool. Thanks guys!scarabin
- When/if "internet" gets faster, the iMac would be able to support it. In theory.monospaced

Do you personally know an alcoholic? Not a lush, or someone with a drinking problem, an alcoholic.
I do, and it has been strange. We’ve known each other 7-8 years. Met over mutual interests and became friends. I did work for them, so all seemed well. Then I saw them drink. There was no stopping them. There was a new person now. Someone unashamed of their actions, defensive of their habits, someone who would rather drink at home than see people, someone that got ejected from rehab twice for making fruit wine on the premises. What?
The last time I saw them was years ago. It was a sad, desperate, angry event that left me saddened I could not help. I walked away.
Fast forward to two years ago, I get a text. Is this still you? Yep. Can you come to my one year anniversary of being sober? ( I’m crying writing this because I was so proud) but I had to say no, I wasn’t in town.
We never spoke again after that.
A few weeks ago, I got the same text. This time I’m in town. I see a completely different person. Someone leading meetings, offering advice and personal stories. I see a person once so selfish, they’d rather drink themselves to death than admit any wrong doing now glowing with pride and purpose. Someone now three years sober.
Their skin so smooth, eyes so bright, posture that says they’re proud of who they’ve become. I see a new person.
We’ve spoke privately since then. We never talk about the past. The worst part for me is understanding that everyday is still so hard for them. Everyday a struggle to do what their conscience tells them, not that little annoying voice.
I’m really happy for them. From what most of the other participants said at the meeting, being alone is very difficult. If you know anyone like that. It probably wouldn’t hurt to reach out and support them. It means so much more to them than we might realize.
- I do, people who drink lots during all week, many times I have to take care of them or take them back home when we do beers on weekends...OBBTKN
- Talked to them about it, but, for now, they're functional workers, stillOBBTKN
- The only thing I get is that they get mad at me because I hardly get drunk, and I'm always the one who has to babysit. Sad :(OBBTKN
- I'm going on 3 years sober, and can relate to much of this.DRIFTMONKEY
- I’ve thought i had a problem before, but then i meet someone who actually does and it kind of blows me away. The attachment people can have to this drug is nutsscarabin
- So glad you friend found their way out of it, addiction is one of the biggest demons a person can facescarabin
- Yeah, alcohol is sincerely the worst drug, if only because of its cultural acceptance and ease of reach.Nairn
- curious that you referred to the person as them, not that it matters but just curious if it's a guy or a girl?_niko
- Yes, 2, both died in car accidents, a predictable and mundane addiction.whatthefunk
- i am one lolcolin_s
- Alcoholism is a desease. I have lived with multiple, one being my father. Destroys families and relationships. Glad your friend finally accepted he needed help.sea_sea
- My mother was one. Great lady. Super caring. Not abusive or destructive. Just loved to drink. Multiple times in rehab.BusterBoy
- She would stash bottles of 50 proof grog around the house where me and my brothers couldn't find them...or so she thought.BusterBoy
- The bottles had a distinctive cap that made a click every time it was put back on. Whenever we heard the click, we'd think..."oh no".BusterBoy
- More than once as a kid, I'd find all her bottles and empty them down the sink.BusterBoy
- Busterboy I had the same thing growing up, except my mum wasn't the happy kind of drunk.Melanie
- I had to break up with my last gf because of her sickness, hopefully, she's better and taking care of herself.jaylarson
- @buster, I used to empty bottles & cans, that's a classic move from a desperate kid, trying to make the madness stop. My father was super chill, my mother tho..sea_sea
- It made my mother neurotic and in return made my childhood very difficult. if it wasn't for AlaTeen & therapy most of my life, i probably would not be here.sea_sea

I did - a best friend, but he left London and moved to Asia, sobered up and now has a wife and two kids and I think a fairly successful career. I'll possibly never see him again, but if he stays on the trajectory he's on, I'm ok with that.
Not going to lie, I probably facilitated some of his boozing, as I'm not exactly in control of that side of my life myself - but - I never drink early in the day and I've never been turned away from my local shop(s) because they didn't want to serve me booze, both of which he suffered. I also never stripped naked and started bounding around a a pub in Camden as a drunken protest against my partner either... . Ah, happier days. Glad they're gone for him now though.

Duo to corona lockdown im getting really bored. The good thing is that it's making me do other things. I'm finally taking the step to get my driver licence (im 29). On Sunday i'll get my first driving lesson.

Noooo - I've become that which I most* hate - a facemask litterer!
I just popped down to the shop, mask on, in and out, facemask off and back to work again wherein I put my hand in my pocket to get mask out to walk the 15m from the front door to my studio and... it's gone!
SHIT.
That's the first time I can remember littering since about 2006 (and that time was a one-off that I still hate myself for).
Must've been when I ran across the street, ninja'ing the traffic.
Nnngh.
.
* Ok, there's a mile-deep list of things that I hate, but hey.
- whenever I need to take it off momentarily, ive been attaching the strap of the mask to the velcro on my jacket.pango
- If I'd not've been wearing my oversized jacket, I'd've just slipped it onto my elbow, dandy-style, but it's Autumn now.. :\Nairn
- Why not buy washable, non-disposable ones?Continuity
- I have some of those as well, I just didn't happen to use it this time. I have loads of backups because I'm a dolt and I keep forgetting when I run outdoorsNairn
- cunt :)BusterBoy
- also, I usually wear washable ones. but I kept a few disposable ones in every bag, just in case, I forget them.pango
- You almost can't breath with washable masks, I got ten given by the gov and have never used them.i_was

So I hated the wee old iPhone I was using because if I missed an update it would just there dumbly, all sleek dark monolith-like, not giving away its secrets. Well, my secrets. Not even scerets, just - shit I need to know.
Why the fuck didn't that thing have a wee LED saying "Hey, I've got something for you, Big Man"?
Now I'm on an Android and it does have this much-needed functionality.
Except, the LEDs are F U C K I N G B R I G H T so any time it has anything to tell me, it's not all coy like that slut iPhone it's total DICKPICK IN YOUR FACE, DICKPICK IN YOUR FACE, DICKPICK IN YOUR FACE, DICKPICK IN YOUR FACE.
ffs. I miss old Nokias.
- Samsung S8/S9 & maybe the new ones have a perfect LED. Color-coded by app, very chill notification thing. Custom setting allows it to be the only notifier.nb
- That sounds lovely.
Mine's either red, green or blue and given I exist mostly in twilight, they're like supernovae going off.Nairn - There's no way to adjust brightness?zarkonite
- A piece of masking tape might do. It'd be about as ghetto as all my other 'solutions'.Nairn
- The Samsung one is sort of a gradient spot, and the gradients vary depending on app sending the notification. It's rad.nb
- The gradient LED doesn't match any app's brand colors, which is unfortunate, but also would be kind of useless since so many are blue.nb
- Highly recommend picking up a cheap S9 or S10. Wonderfully designed phones.nb
- Did you never explore the Notifications settings in iOS? There is literally manual control for notifications on lock screen for every app.monospaced

there was a new service to renew registration st the DMV online. I did that in July. I just got my tags for my car. It was supposed to take 10 business days. sheesh.... I'm just glad I was never pulled over.
