^^^Yo...dogs that need xanax are THE WORST.
If my Aunt's dog is reading this....FUCK YOU. YOU SUCK! Stupid ass dog that needs xanax. Go fuck yourself.

[Chankgeez]

You should challenge that dog to a duel!

[$harkToootth]

It would probably win but that doesn't mean it's not an asshole.

[friendship]

I can never just hang out with my fiancee without her obnoxious-ass dog whining and being up her ass and having a minor panic attack at fucking everything in the world.
FUCK OFF DOG JUST TAKE A XANAX AND GO LAY DOWN

It has really hit me that I can be a huge fucking snob. I love people. I'm not condescending. But when it comes to certain media, I am a huge snob.

[Invisible Man]

Jesus Christ it is hard to be a good man. I'm still trying, but holy shit. Maybe some other folks could try a little bit? Things would be a little more humane, perhaps?

Wrong thread for this, but I thought it was kinda relevant:

I really do think work is its own reward, and you shouldn’t do things to get some external validation. But my work has been so demeaning and such a struggle to get even the most inconsequential consideration for ethical behavior out of people that I started to wonder how long I can hold out.

On Thursday, I experienced a minor miracle. Through a convoluted and random series of events, I asked a rock star in my field to come shake our shit up as a keynote speaker at a conference I’m organizing. He had questions, so we met. He planned to turn me down, but hearing my plans and story and seeing ‘how huge my balls were’ he took the engagement, immediately donated his fee to me to pay my way through a fellowship he runs that trains college presidents and policy makers, and is setting me up for a high-level gig at his institute at the top public liberal arts department in the country.

He does exactly the kind of work I’m trying to do, but I can’t get anyone to listen. This is some real shit. They take a handful of big shots every year from all over the country and make them pay out the ass. This gives me all the tools I need to make some big moves I would otherwise only dream about.

The point is that this is really nice, but that even hearing someone I respect tell me that my work has some value was enough to break me. Reminded me that resistance from stupidity is really a form encouragement, and that maybe home isn’t where you’re comfortable, but where you can be useful.

^^^ Congrats, IMan, that all sounds awesome. You've been dreaming of escaping that place forever, so I'm very happy for you.

This country's institutions need more enlightened leadership, so lead the way.

Well I pay 1100$ a month in child support for my son who lives with his mother who makes approx 95k$ a year and lives with her boyfriend who makes approx 70k$ a year.. and I get to see him 8 days a month. He tells me yesterday that she's buying a very special car.. which I assume is the Tesla she's been talking about for years. .. and then now I'm also paying 500$ a month doe my student loans .. so I'm basically just blown away. I'm paying out the ass so she can live the life of luxury with my son most of the time and I have ultimately no recourse.. I'm just fucking hosed. FML

can relate to this and what you said above (especially about the concept of 'work') in more ways than one. congratulations on your opportunity, and hopefully it leads to further outlets like this too. Be well buddy

That sucks ass. Sounds like you want to see your kid more, which makes you a good dad. My brother got a divorce (recently finally signed on both sides) and he barely sees his kids but acts like they are a burden. He also pays a ton, which sucks.

My uncle pays 7k a month in maintenance, yea that's not an error. He has to pay that for a fucking decade. Ridiculous.

[BetterOffShred]

The system is set up for the dudes who don't pay. The guys who can, they take them to the cleaners. It's fucked

[reckon luck]

Life is hell sometimes. Holy crap the last week has been excruciatingly stressful in a dozen different ways.

And I've got a cold on top of it all.

[BitchPudding]

The constant arm wrestle with my mind is becoming less of a chore lately. When it does get quiet, I find myself in this weird space of wanting to write/play guitar, but not being inspired enough. I want to go outside at night once everyone is asleep to jam with my gear since I dont get that opportunity enough anymore, but I still have a childish fear of the dark that keeps me inside once the anxiety about the lights going out while im out there sets in. I also dont want to sleep cause I feel like im losing days while time seems to speed by faster and faster each day. An hour feels like 10 minutes, but a week feels like a month. And all I can do at the end of the day is stare at the walls at 2pm contemplating how I will die one day and it will happen suddenly without warning.

So im crippled by anxiety.

Still havent heard back from the therapist office. I will probably have to look somewhere else. And they said getting help was easy. My fucking ass. Maybe if I 5150'd my situation I'd have someone showing up who cares.

Grah, I hate standing still.

So, a friend's brother got in trouble with the law --While he was a high school softball coach he was caught sending dirty texts to a student/minor. There were no photos. Or actual sex. Just texts. He was obviously fired from his job and took a deal to go on 5 years probation (after posting $40,000 bail). During this probation he went to therapy, paid his fines, did his community service and never missed a meeting with his parole officer. He had to take lie detector tests every year as he was not allowed to view pornography during probation, or be on the internet at all. Well, during a test, he admitted to viewing a nude photo of his wife and they considered that pornography...then he received a subpoena one month before his 5 year probation was up...to confess this fact and that he also used the internet brielfy (not for porn) during his probation....

Judge negated his probation and sentenced him the max penalty of 20 YEARS IN PRISON.

Jared from Subway received 15 years for raping people.
I've seen other rape and even murder cases carry less sentences.

So, don't send dirty texts to a minor....you may serve 20 years for it. Oh, and viewing naked pic of your wife is porn.

AMERICA. FUCK YA. JUSTICE SERVED

Damn son. They'll blow your brains out for less.
