Off Topic / Re: Movie Recommendation Ideas

anything by monty python, rocky horror picture show, little shop of horrors are all fun (and extremely bizarre at times). rhps is more of a...cult classic? though. i wasn't a huge fan of it, but i feel like it's a culture piece that's worth a watch.

if you're into sci fi classics: starship troopers, galaxy quest, the original dune (also a weird movie; the modern one is extremely worth a watch)
action classics: die hard. blues brothers might count as an action movie?

unfortunately i'm more of a fan of period dramas (og pride and prejudice baybee) so my "classic movies" are based off of what my dad told me was mandatory viewing as a kid.

i work as a computer engineer doing things i'm not allowed to tell people about :) i'm not exactly doing what i love within the field but it pays big time so i can't complain

i work part time at my university doing IT helpdesk stuff, honestly a pretty enjoyable job where i get to work with some cool people and its pretty flexible around my college schedule. plus when college isnt in session (summer break) i get a lot of hours and make some sweet cash that i proceed to waste save

wtf you sound like me during college. mine was for the engineering college though. sometimes i miss it, that job was so ez

I think this kind of has snuffed a horrible but beautiful flower that could have been. Although I understand the rule the more I think of it the more interesting it gets. Just gonna leave this here since I have been drinking and want to revisit the thought later.

have you finished drinking and are ready to come back to this thought

i've got primary trochlear headaches so i almost always feel like i'm getting stabbed in the inner corner of my eyesocket. also i'm allergic to avocados and those are one of my favorite foods. and the ganglion cyst in my left wrist i had removed a couple years ago is back and worse than ever so i have to sleep in a wrist brace, and if i'm stirring a pot a bunch while cooking, i have to wear a wrist brace to keep from irritating it. basically i'm allergic to all the things i love and i'm in constant pain <3
i also have some good ol depression and anxiety and i'm pretty sure i've got some nasty adhd because i can never get myself to sit down and actually do stuff i need to do

nicotine whilst not extremely degrading in health (compared to other drugs) is a substance you should never touch. from my experience its just too god damn addictive. i think overtime the addiction has lessened my attention span drastically, that plus its general social acceptance and legality make it too accessible. and i don't even want to picture how much money i've spent on nicotine. i regret ever trying it its been like 6 years now and i still can't quit.

yeppp. as someone with an addictive personality/prone to substance dependence...i do my best to stay as far away as possible from it. i knew a guy in college who needed like, 3 of those sublingual nicotine things just to feel anything from em. i know that if i ever start, i'll probably be like that

I feel like I'm going to be hooked on meds for the rest of my life. i used to be on 10MG lexapro and I was barely functional and I'm 5MG rn but i still struggle with energy and motivation and stuff and I can't focus on any of the creative endeavors i wanna pursue. i'm also trying to get diagnosed with ADHD w my psychiatrist and i might have to take stuff for that and i don't even know if I wanna get it treated with meds.

i'm also weaning off my antidepressants, but i've accepted that i'll be on things like my nerve blockers for the rest of my life (i have super painful, persistent facial neuralgia). there's nothing wrong with having to take medications to help your mental health. there's nothing wrong with needing that extra push to help yourself. sometimes your brain straight up doesn't make enough of the chemicals it needs and it needs help and that's okay.

i get that taking pills is exhausting. i used to take 11 pills a day back before i was finally prescribed something that was able to dull my neuralgia. now i'm down to just 4 a day, possibly soon to be 3 if i can successfully wean off my antidepressants. but i don't think there's any shame or any problem with taking medicine for your health.

also, there's far worse things to be hooked on, like nicotine lol
