Realizing in my (coughcough) not youth, that I sort of dig the goth/emo makeup look on myself. I never tried it because I was told I was too bubbly IRL to pull it off, etc. So I never did. I tried the first time this literal year (hello 2020) and I dig the look.
what do those people not know about Perky Goths?!
Do you even need to link to the page when an image of Elvira is enough?
@eye8urcake It's definitely one of those things that I look at and think 'some designers and engineers lost sleep over this design.'
Five small roundabouts feed a larger roundabout that exits through one of the five small roundabouts again.
@Ganymede The same goes for any professional environment. Fuck your authority, if someone questions something you want or say, double-check your shit. It's not hard. Be humble, correct mistakes, and move on. Authority doesn't mean shit when you're wrong and someone from HR or higher wants to know what the fuck you did.

@Auspice Vodka. Provided a little alcohol won't eff it up.
Vodka is for the person doing the cleaning.

If any of our forum members are in Australia and are anywhere near those fires, my heart goes out to you. Speak up if you need anything.
unless your name is @Tinuviel
Yanno, I was gonna make a tasteless joke, but I would hate for something bad to happen and then feel horrible if that joke kinda called it.
So yeah, I'm even wishing @Tinuviel well; that fuck.
I'm pretty far from the fires, except when we're driving supplies down.
If you're of a mind, and have the resources, please consider donating to the Country Fire Authority, Fire Relief Fund for First Nations Communities, Australian Red Cross, or the NSW Rural Fire Service.
If you are interested in donating, triple check to whom you're giving your money. Crises offer higher chances for scammers to operate.
Depression manifests differently for different people. For me, for instance, it's me running on fumes. I can think just fine, I just cannot do. At all.
What works for one won't work for another.
The ultimate Depression Meal: noodles and/or ramen and/or any dried cereal. Open packet. Remove contents by hand. Shove into mouth.
@Salty said in Depression Meals:
Turn oven to 350. Get out tinfoil.
Instructions too hard, eating cheese direct from the packet while curled up in front of the fridge.

squishing with flat of knife blade
Big knife + rubber mallet.
I don't have space for a rubber mallet in my kitchen
All kitchens have space for a rubber mallet.
@Ghost Oh don't get me wrong, we have buffets with every kind of food under the sun (that can be cooked in massive batches in 20 minutes or less) but we just... call them buffets.
@Wretched said in Depression Meals:
Chinese Buffet

Too much sushi
Um.
I keep several single-serve pots of soup in my freezer for when I'm depressed. Put them in the microwave for ten minutes, stir, another five, done.

We just lost two PM's in a month.
Wish we could lose ours...

Fucking people who think something is funny - when it's completely wrong in the information provided. Maybe it's just my history major showing, but if you want to joke about offering one of our politicians up to Iran to 'even things out' - at least make sure you offer one of our politicians that is equal in stature. THEN it might be funny. Jeez.
The only one I can think of is Mattis.
