The Nightmare Before Christmas, followed by Hocus Pocus. They’re the only two I’ll watch repeatedly.

Howl’s Moving Castle Martyrs Paadmavaat

Definitely Gothmas. Didn’t put as much effort into it this year but it’s there!

Sparkling water. Liquid Death has a cola flavor that’s satisfying in that area without the sugar or caffeine.

Also regular water.

Another Kobo fan here. Got the Libra 2 for physical page turn buttons. No subscriptions. Haven’t accessed Libby but it’s an option. Can sideload with no issues. Doesn’t have a planner unfortunately. Great device, had mine for three years so far and hoping I never have to buy another one.

BooBear 🙂

But what fun would that be??

American omnivore.

The only reason I leave things out is if they’ll get soggy in the fridge. This generally applies to pizza and biscuits (in a bag). My gluten free bread is refrigerated because it gets moldy before I finish it, regular bread is on the counter.

If I happen to forget to put away leftovers, I’ll refrigerate them when I get to them as long as they haven’t dried out or anything. I’ve woken up in the middle of the night to do that.

This is the correct answer 😂

Thank you! I’ll be planning my first solo “escape the world” trip either this month or next month (I’m from northern GA) and I’ll probably spend most of my time in a cabin just doing a lot of nothing.

Ah, yes. Those fuckers regularly stopped traffic when I lived in Michigan. Not for tourist reasons of course, they’re just big and travel in packs. And take their sweet time crossing the road.

Where would you recommend? We visited earlier this year and I found it overwhelming, though the abundance of family-friendly stuff was nice.

They are deeply insecure, ashamed, alone, anxious, and afraid. They CANNOT be faced with others confirming their worst fear: that something is deeply and terribly wrong with them. They’re basically emotionally disabled and can’t empathize, work together as a team, or be genuine. They completely lack accountability ir responsibility. In close relationships, they suck the life out of people the most because it makes them feel better about themselves and they choose this tactic in these relationships because that person is least likely to leave them.

As a therapist, I’ve seen one, maybe two clinical narcissists. The one I remember best only came to therapy to get recognition for doing so but had NO insight into the nature of his issues.

Oddly enough my dad doesn’t have a custom ringtone, may have to look into that. Everyone else isn’t special enough to get one.

Toyota Camry-Nairobi (favorite character from Money Heist)

Chevrolet Impala-Bessie (she’s an old but reliable cow)

CFMOTO motorcycle-Medianoche (it’s all black).

I needed the laugh this brought on 😂. Spot on tutorial on how to bidet correctly 👍

Graphical way of searching by a given artist and the results are shown based on who is most similar (closer to center) and who is least similar (farthest from center). Love searching this way.

I’ve also used YouTube to search for a familar artist and then I’ll go through the suggestions to see if I find anything interesting.

You probably can’t. This is a boundary for him and a better approach to this might be to get a better understanding of where he’s coming from (if needed) and respect that boundary.

A lot of yarn. A few motorcycle jackets and pants. ALL of the video games. A lot of yoga accessories that I’ve ogled but never bought.

Good and meh. Personal life is great. I’m able to engage in all the hobbies I want to and am particularly chuffed about learning to play piano. Got a new motorcycle last month that I actually enjoy riding.

Marriage is pretty good. Got a bunch of child support earlier this year, which helped pay off most of my son’s medical debt.

Work is…meh. I love my job but I’m over it when it comes to working in general.

Health-wise… it’s okay considering how bad it can get. I don’t sleep well due to my heart pounding half or the whole night (been an ongoing thing for over a decade and no one can tell me why) so I take a blood pressure supplement (the only thing that helps). Always tired. I’ve become more of an introvert, which is completely fine because I really love my alone time. Have a good group of friends that I stay in touch with and occasionally socialize with.

Overall, I have no complaints. Unsure about the government situation but I can’t get stuck in worrying about that because that dumpster fire will just keep burning. Hoping for enough resistance to keep things from exploding…
