Usually Twinings, but I’ll accept store brand for black tea. Lipton or Tetley for green teas.

I used to say I was never going to get old…
Only way to do that isn’t pleasant. Gotta die young.
I didn’t discount your personal experiences or suggest that your feelings are invalid.
What I said was that I think it’s unwarranted to extend your hatred to an entire group of people around the entire world (many of whom seek out the profession specifically out of a desire to help people) because of your experiences.
So they added an off-topic whataboutism so they could get up on their soapbox? Lol
Was WW1 preceded by many countries electing right-wing or “”“strong”“” leaders?
I’d imagine the people wouldn’t want to destroy their own infrastructure to stop the train. Though they could rebuild, maybe the people felt that it’d hurt them more than the Japanese?
And maybe the Korean people were taking pot shots at trains before they were armoured (which again, wouldn’t damage their infrastructure).
All just speculation here though.
I’m sorry to have infuriated you, and I sympathize with your experiences.
I know for a fact that your experience is not normal, at least where I live, and I think your hatred of all mental health professionals around the world is unwarranted. I know I won’t be the person to change your mind though.
The reason I suggested it wasn’t “negative emotions” or being an “unhappy worker”, but the part of your original post that (it seems you’ve edited out) suggested potential suicidal ideation.
There are some free or low cost talk therapy services, and not all of them will be “officially approved” by your government, which I think would be a selling point in your case. If you ever need help and don’t know where to turn, some of those might be of assistance. And I haven’t heard of any of them demanding your medical records before offering to help. I’m sure some of them are even anonymous.
Thank you! It was a few steps removed and I didn’t know it was there, but it was worth it!
Thank you. I tried to read the article, got two pop ups (for notifications and cookies requests, I think), then saw it ended in a paywall maybe a paragraph in. So, I was reminded why I don’t usually read articles, lol
I remember hearing that big box stores killed malls. I thought they killed malls, and Amazon killed big box stores, but Amazon can also kill malls, so it was a bit of a double-whammy for malls
You’re right. At the same time, there are now alternatives that generally don’t require being in places that are trying to get you to spend money just to interact with other people.
I’m an ally, but I don’t put my pronouns in any profile. I let people figure it out for themselves. Pronouns are only useful for talking about me anyways. If they get it wrong, it’s not really a big deal, and if it might cause confusion, I’ll correct them.
To the content of your post though, I sincerely hope that you are able to access some therapy.
If you can get your hands on them, try the clinear things. They’re shaped like cotton swabs, except instead of a wad of cotton on the end, it has a little scoop.
It’s like using a spoon to eat cereal instead of a hammer. I don’t understand why people use hammers.
I used to use this maybe a decade ago. I’m glad to see it’s still around!
I’ve unfortunately switched to Google Calendar when my workplace started using it informally, and it’s just been the easiest to stick with.
Could just be a fan of artist René Magritte
last year a murdered escaped from prison by pressing himself again two opposite walls and climbing up
Damn, must’ve sucked to get arrested for being murdered. No wonder he wanted to break out!
Yeah, because it’s stupid to use them for that.
There are products that are designed to clean the ears. Q-tips are for makeup and cleaning electronics and stuff.
Nope, those mean different things!
If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t post it
Means (or implies)…
“I didn’t like it, so I won’t post it”, but it’s phrased as a conditional statement.
It also means that it’s hypothetical – nothing was posted!
But…
If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have posted it
Means (or implies)…
“I like it, so I posted it”, again phrased as a conditional statement.
It also means that the thing actually happened (because the commenter liked it).
So they have similar, but different meanings. The key difference is whether the commenter is saying they have already posted something or not. One is hypothetical, and the other is more of a reflection of something that did happen.
Also, I think this part of your comment is incorrect.
Should not it be
This should be…
Shouldn’t it be
(This is what people say probably 99% of the time)
Or
Should it not be
(This is less common and more formal)
And yes, I know that it looks like the “not” should be directly after the “should” because of “shouldn’t”, but it doesn’t happen that way. I think this happens when forming a question with conditional verbs (should/would/could), but I have no idea why.
As I’m sure you know, English is crazy. Sorry about that. Hope this helps!
I hope that’s not the only lens you see the world through. I don’t think anybody else saw that comment the way you did.
I’m already quite weary of that!
(“Weary” means tired; you probably meant “wary” which means cautious)
