i think they’re worth watching just so you can see how bad they are and how much disney fumbled the bag by hiring the worst people imaginable to write/direct the garbage.

it really shines how much they finally “got it” by hiring Tony Gilroy to come in to fix/salvage Rogue One before letting him loose with Andor - arguably the greatest Star Wars ever made that’s on par with the originals.

agree with what you wrote, but don’t confuse the economy with the stock market. the economy has been FUCKED for awhile now. never recovered from covid / profit-maximizing inflation tbh

https://www.lisep.org/ does a lot of really good work showing how false official UE, CPI, earnings are.

i liked these because I could jump way way way higher than i ever could on my skateboard

just go to the park and sprint at a bench/table and grind the entire length of the thing. things were fun as all hell for awhile. this was like… god… 1997?

it got old after awhile because while doing sick ass grinds was fun as hell, that was all you could really do. went back to skateboarding pretty quick.

bidet, electric water kettle, air fryer, pour over coffee, USB desk fan, portable electric heater, air purifier doubling as white noise maker, melatonin, metal tongue scraper, quality kitchen knife / sharpener, fleece Sherpa lined sweatshirt hoodie, wool socks, weekend at Bernie’s type sunhat, portable water purifier, ceramic pans,

don’t nitpick or criticize or yell or grief them. they know. trust me: they know. it’ll only make things worse if you reinforce the shit thoughts they already have about themselves.

just support and be nice, patient and help.

jack trimpey rational recovery is godsend. allison carr the easy way. 30 day trial is good.

psychiatrist for naltrexone or other blockers are, legit, the secret.

support groups to talk to people things like life ring, other secular groups they can google.

id avoid AA. no, i won’t elaborate

Night in the Woods. Start to finish. It has so many moments where you just pause and go “…shit.” It’s the most perfect game ever made.

Also FF7. White teenage boy complex with Aeris for sure, but also blowing up oil facilities, killing CEOs, and Red XIII’s story. It’s wild to me the themes that this game gets across in Discs 1-2.

TOP OF THE LIST: bidet (duh),

electric water kettle (fuck gas stoves and also faster),

$3 metal tongue scrapper (clean ass mouth),

noise cancelling headphones (it’s amazing not going back),

slow cooker (it’s impressive how lazy i am. spend an hour cruising slow cooking recipes on reddit/chaptgpt, pick out 10+, set for life),

piratebay

HONORABLE MENTIONS:

50+ pack of small white rags and using those instead of paper towels. simple washer after all used to reuse

cheap air purifier in room @ night, clean air and dual white noise maker.

small $10 desk usb fan. fuck running the A/C just turn this guy on.

electric space heater. depending on your climate, you don’t need central gas heat just get space heater and shut the door to the room you’re in.
