    A couple of losers just hit the bus I was riding to get home with a trailer full of trash hooked to their pickup. They ditched the trailer and drove off. But people here have their license plate on their phones now.

    Maybe they don't have insurance? Or a driver's license?
    Or they didn't want their vehicle searched?

    You just can't take the trailer trash out of some people. ;)

    I am seriously thinking about quitting my PT job and trying to live off my SSDI alone.

    There is nothing wrong with that, if you can afford to do it.
    You should start by laying out a "what if" budget to see if it is feasible.

    You should also consider the impact of unscheduled days on your depression...

    I was just looking up how much it pays, it's a much more complex system than ours, but the average seems to be enough to live on if you're careful with it. The biggest problem most of us have is paying rent, that's usually our biggest expense.

    I think I should not make major decisions while sleep deprived and in physical pain.

    Stopping by here briefly because I just lost a tooth and the empty socket is infected, I should be able to go back to work tomorrow but this sucks.

    That's shock inducing. I'm so sorry, losing teeth is tough. And the dentist rips you off.

    Do you have a prescription for antibiotics, now?

    I feel like sleeping all day and night, retreating into escapism and dreams instead of facing how much reality sucks. I might be a coward.

    R.E.M. sleep is actually good for us.
    It helps sort out our emotional issues, so I have read.
    It does help me.

    I need to avoid the news for a week or two. Things are going to get a LOT worse in my country now.

    Then you missed the big news?

    A weekend of gaming with a couple of gym trips packed in to liven things up. That is what I will have.

    You're sounding lively.
    The covid a thing of the past.
    The tooth, fixed up?
    Metalhead
    Metalhead
    Covid is in the past and the antibiotics took care of the tooth pain, but the tooth will be extracted Tuesday since it cannot be saved and that annoys me.

    Dental pain sucks. A tooth that had a root canal and a new crown a couple of years ago now has pain and swelling inside of it, going down the jaw into the chin. Will see the dentist in a little under four hours from now.

    Hope it's not an abscess.

    Not only is it an abscess, the tooth has cracks on its root and needs to be pulled after I spent a couple thousand dollars trying to save it.

    Sorry to hear. Something both me and my brother are familiar with. :(

    Maybe listening to Nine Inch Nails is a bad idea when I already am feeling depressed.

    Look up the mashup of "Closer" and the Ghostbusters theme instead :) It always makes me giggle.

    Half the world wants me dead. Half the country wants me dead. Yet I still I live on.

    The US is the king of double standards. We’re supposed to be free but you get harassed for being who you truly are.

    If I am to believe my parents, the world will descend into a massive bloodbath and since I am a bull in a china shop I will be among the first to die. They’re paranoid and totally certifiable if they believe what they tell me.

    Sounds like you need to separate yourself from them. -Indefinitely.

    People who are so smug about surviving the end of the world fail to consider what life might be like afterwards. At the nadir of post-Roman Western Europe, what was once a highly urbanized civilization had become wandering tribes of hunter-gatherers. All the accomplishments of Rome had been forgotten.
