Should we embrace our grief?

The 2nd graph shows how California is being destroyed by unchecked immigration in relation to the rest of the US.

But hey, think what you want it doesn't make California any cleaner, richer, or safer.

    the last graph shows calis gdp growth highernthan countrys average.

    Yeah, I embrace it however which way I can- talking, kicking, exercising, screaming, playing music, or crying till my eyeballs feel like exploding. However is best for me to get through whatever it is I’m going through. But I’m like this with just about all of my emotions- not just grief.

    While, some might call me immature, others will say I’m passionate. All depends on the way a person looks at a glass filled half way looks at life. Either half EMPTY or half FULL. j/s

    Well no. It shows that there are more immigrants. The rest of this sentence is purely conjured from your gaping asshole.

    Colour blindness or actual mental retardation? Both?

    1. The orange line is California. You are iIIiterate.

    2. I know you were 6 years old at the time, so you probably don't remember any of this... but right there where that graph dips down in the middle, we had a little bit of a cute goof called the 2008 FINANCIAL CRISIS AND GLOBAL DEPRESSION.

    How nice that the trend is upwards after that, and 2% above the national average! Wow!

    I think it is important to remind yourself that it is alleviating of one's own grief, to focus on anothers.

    The sapolsky video was good to watch. And kind of empowering in a way. I always get called lazy, and I know that's not it. If I go back home and mom says you need to start throwing away all this shit and organize it into boxes.....a 15x18 foot room with every single things I've ever owned... it's just too much shit. My life feels like one of those knotted up balls of cables that you find in a drawer. Now a healthy person might look at that ball of knotted cables and wires and begin to find a starting point to u ravel it all. When I see that, or come across a problem, I just feel exhausted. And then I get angry. Any lengthy or laborious tasks I just can't deal with. She remarked that I replaced all the under-sink plumbing in the 2 bathrooms and the kitchen, so I obviously COULD ado things if I chose. Well sometimes I don't feel quite as shitty, But mainly, plumbing is just legos. You connect one piece to another and seal the threads, blowtorch to expand the fittings. It doesn't require evaluating a gigantic pile of 20 years worth of shit and parsing it into different categories, organizing some things, throwing others away. Listing some for sale.t reminds me of the way I used to feel in pre-calculus. I made it through algebra by the skin of my teeth. And although my less creative present mind isn't as daunted by mathematical things anymore, because I know it's going to be logical and adhere to certain rules....I remember looking at pages of work sometimes and I just walked out of class. My brain did the same thing, like a horse coming to deep water and rearing back, not able to force itself to go further. That's what depression feels like now. And after watching that video, I think it's pretty apparent I have major depression. Although the fact that it could just be the result of the thyroid thing is hopeful.

    Malice's departure was collectively traumatic for NiS. Some might call it an echo of the older days of Totse, where user deaths were more frequent and our lives were precarious, but in recent years, our community has become more intimate than that. We're the last ones left, and everybody knows one another.

    Even in his isolation, Malice touched our hearts and then we were bereaved of him. Our response thus far has been denial, dismissal, and in some cases, outright mockery. Shouldn't we face our grief more honestly than that? Even the worst people on the internet have to mourn the loss of one of their own.

    I have to say watching what my sister went through after her miscarriage/stillbirth at the seven month mark was incredibly traumatic. To this day I still have no fucking clue what to say to losing a kid but I just supported her and her fiance at the time and now husband. Having been the one who found her in her tub naked with a knife bleeding. We tried counselling but we ended up putting her into a therapy group home where she stayed for almost a year before she came home and she has never been quite the same but at least she wants to live life and not end it. Grief is one hell of an enemy and should never be ignored

    Fuck you malices ghost aka Justin if that is indeed your real name youre a robot so you couldn't experience joy anyway except ad a visual approximation in gay anime form but you missed out. Occasionally life do be fly tho. Everything in life has seasons, a flow. If we were. Happy all the time small moments wouldn't mean anything. I'm so fucking appreciative of the little I do have only because I've been so low. So jokes on you faggot drink more pentobarbital.
