Or just let staff do as they please

There's, umm, a lot of whatever this is all over the place. This site too. I don't love it.

Huh. Never heard that term but seems very fussy and controlling.

Also could have been 1 line instead of an essay. "Please defer non-urgent work matters until after Jan 5, or use scheduled send."

They should give Obama a second prize just to see if we can make t's brain melt

Still don't get what it means or why it's an insult (ok just looked it up, it's the original surname), nor tRump. Rump as in he's a butt? K.

I'm not in this picture and I don't like it 🤤🥺

Oh buddy, if you're still explaining FL, I see how you made the error in the first place and will continue to misapply your singular model & favorite toy. Even replacing his terminology now to force the fit despite it resulting in obvs falsity.

Op's mentions have had enough so muting now. Cheers.

Uh, see if you can get access to Hoopla, I wanted to be waitlisted cuz I'm in the middle of something but borrowed it right away. Guess I'll return...

(I think hoopla has a shared collection for some things but don't quote me on that)

Oh also. Been experimenting allowing some sadness and dialing both emotions up or down to surf just under the crying threshold

Total suppression feels fake and unsatisfying, and it's fascinating you can tune it

Idk, sounds bizarre but I'm kinda nerding out, this brain hack is my shiny new toy

Yeah I love my UE Boom 2, 10y and going strong. Several friends picked one up after handling mine.

If I focus on something angering I can def let it get away from me, but I just don't need it to dampen the sadness sufficiently.

I've only tried during sad shows—I might need something stronger under pressure? But I wouldn't do this with my wife, so shows are my only practice.

Good question.

As I've been playing with it, it's not real anger

I get the sob trigger and immediately try to bring up anger as an emotion, without a specific target/cause

This is effortful, so I just stop, and it passes

Ymmv though, this may just be how I'm wired.

And yeah, outside of DEI context, it's irrelevant compared to murder unless it's actively contributing to his recklessness and decision-making

I couldn't say, but my BIL has gotten way more reckless as it developed. Proxy murder vs killing your own kids by intentionally DD w them...⚖️🤷‍♀️

extreme social drinkers, and whole fam is going through A Thing with a relative rn...alcoholic endangering his kids who thinks everyone's making a fuss over nothing. Treats rehab like a joke to mollify the family.

I'm short on sympathy for those who embrace the abuse, and Hegseth seems of that set.

I'm torn tbh.

In the context of dismantling diversity efforts to bin every woman and POC, all these fucking assholes with serious disqualifications who act like frat boys make it seem...relevant

But it's the partybro thing more than the addiction itself.

Also I might be biased, grew up around

Wait. Maybe this is novel and surprising *bc* of the robot thing? Others just have a lot more experience with it, so it's second nature?

Once had a friend who said she cried every day; she had an emotional labor job but I never saw her do it in front of others.

I'd totally recruit a friend to filter nice web alerts about me 😆

Well ok, I'd probably figure out how to do sentiment analysis on my own just to avoid *gasp* letting someone do something big for me

I mean, you learn about defense mechanisms, but they're usually said to be unconscious

Doing it on purpose is novel to me

But obvs seems bad to let it become habitual
