  • I think people may be seeing it the wrong way round or at least not taking into account the other side.

    I’ve been unemployed two years since a mental breakdown. A lot of people may think I’m living the high life with nothing to do and just chilling. But it destroys you having no work! Everyday is a battle against the dark thought - “what’s the point in life if I’m not DOING something?”

    You may think you’d do the hobbies you do at weekend - but you don’t. Not when you’re not working long-term. You just coast with every day exactly the same. Nothing has meaning. Weekends aren’t special Even something as simple as going to the library - I love books! But why bother? I can do that tomorrow. Tomorrow comes and I don’t go.

    I’m not saying people need to be wage slaves and work dead-end jobs. But people have to work for their own sanity. It’s why a lot of retired people degenerate and/or go back to light work.



  • I dunno. I would agree but there’s some anime where the Japanese name just sounds better and it’s easier to say.

    Kimetsu no Yaiba has a silky feel to it that’s lost in the English translation “Demon Slayer” which sounds a bit corny.

    Same with Jujutsu Kaisen which sounds a lot better than “Sorcery Battle” or “Technique School”.

    Shingeki no Kyojin sounds better but I never remember it as easily as “Attack on titan” and people always shorten it to the English acronym (AoT).















  • That’s what’s kinda weird. If it popped out of any other part of my body I’d say it was a lot like an infected hair follicle.

    It was a solid-waxy pus ball/sack.

    Even getting it out was weird - I couldn’t use my fingers cos it just disappeared into my lip. So I had to push my lip into my mouth and use my teeth behind it to push this pus-ball out onto my tongue!

    Probs difficult to picture but imagine the move you do if/when picking bits of your lip off with your teeth. Biting your lips basically but instead emptying what looks like a sebacious cyst onto your tongue below.

    I’m gonna keep an eye on it since some seem to say it’s HPV/cold sore.

    No ones mentioned cancer or something exotic so I’m feeling better for my chances! 😂
