Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

meara, the morning my father died I went into the SF office as usual and one of my favourite colleagues asked me, "Are you all right? You seem a little thinkier than usual," and I just sort of looked at her and said, "My father passed away this morning." Her response was, "What are you even doing here?" and I had to say, "Most of the people who care about me are here. If I fall over, they'll catch me."

Obviously, your work situation may be different. But everyone does this a little differently, and what is right for you is right for you. We love you, and we will support you no matter what you need to do.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

So sorry for your loss, meara.

And you'll process things as you need to process them. There's no wrong way to do your feelings. And we're here for you if/when you need anything.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Karl is wise

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Somehow I never subscribed to this thread, which I only realized when I came to post that it looks like the Connections writer recently had (or saw) the MOCA administered.

Peace-ma to meara

What is upscrolled?

Thanks y’all. Luckily I’d already taken this week off, so work is not an issue.

Why do you say that, Debet?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

There's a section where you have to tell what category two items belong to (the example task being banana and orange). Two of the green items are the second task, which is hard enough to make some cognitively intact people think for a second.

Ah, interesting! And the green one is the one I got last (because I wish to register a complaint), hmm.
