So last week I broke my wrist. I naively thought work would cover my wages because I am full-time, have full benefits, and work for a fortune whatever company. It's a fucking grocery store.
Turns out I have to submit a form to get paid. No one told me this, so I did not get paid today. I was going to be late on rent because I don't make enough, but now I don't think I can make rent at all. I'm so close to just getting in contact with some travelers I know and checking out. I gave it a go right? But I don't want to. I want to live a quiet life with a little apartment, no kids. Just let me have a studio and a fulfilling job.
I take a lot of pride in my work. It's simple. I'm a produce clerk. But I work for a big company, and they do as they do. Nothing is good enough. Nothing we do is good enough. So my pride is gone. I come in, work, go home. I do not care. I wanted to be management. No way in hell.
I'm exhausted, comrades. I don't know what to do.
I'm proud of you! I think I am very socially awkward but after I ended my last toxic relationship people have been coming out of the woodwork and people actually like me! It has gotten to be a bit much to be honest.
Best of luck, comrade.
This may be the wrong comm. Sorry if it is.
I recently misplaced my pride lanyard, along with my keys. The keys have been replaced. I'd like to buy something pansexual-themed, as that is how I identify. Does anyone have any good sources for such things? I found a seller on Etsy that sold chainmaille pieces (I used to make them), but my order was cancelled. I assume the shop is defunct. A lanyard isn't necessary, but something subtle that I can wear at a major grocery chain would be good. We're allowed a little personal expression.
Shipping in the US is a requirement.
It seems a lot of people I know are going through it right now. I have no way of knowing what you go through, as my situation is vastly different. I'm in no position to help and don't know where you are exactly (nor do I need to) but I'm in central Florida. Feel free to reach out if you ever want to talk.
Haven't read the comments, but the biggest problem I had was inability to orgasm, with both an SSRI and an SNRI. I could do it sometimes myself if I was alone, but the fact that I couldn't at all during sex was hurting my relationship at the time. Other than that, they did the job. I may be about to have to go back on something as my mental health has been concerning of late as well.
I'm currently looking for a second job so this sounds great.
I was losing my mind trying to figure that out. Thank you! I've been at work all day, so there was no way I read it in the past four hours.
You've gotten upbears but I wanted to specifically say this was a good one. I chuckled.
No shit! Between food and rent I can barely make it.
Surely they signed an extremist non-compete.
"Confusion, nausea, and vomiting are symptoms. Severe cases can cause seizures, coma, and death."
It waters down the blood, diluting electrolytes. It's a LOT of water. But it's something that is definitely possible.
Well that seems... not ideal.
To explain, the person testing you will check for temperature and appearance. If it's too clear they may require another sample.
I went through a state-run program called drug court (you can have a little doxxing, as a treat. Afaik not many states have this program) and if you pissed too clear they'd make you give another sample. They didn't observe us directly, so maybe that's why. Someone just stood outside the bathroom and listened.
Refusal to give a new sample would result in a fail.
For the record I was 100% sober whilst going through this program and it's probably the best thing that happened to me. I chose not to be a CI and it got me (relatively) cheap outpatient rehab. 13+ hours a week of therapy and real consequences to my actions. ended a decade-long opiate addiction. So I never cheated on their tests, just conveying my experience.
I did spend my teenage years doing through multiple, less punitive, programs, which is where I draw this experience from.
Didn't read all the replies but here is how I used to do it.
Drink a lot of water the night before and day of. Don't get water poisoning but get real close. You want as much of your piss to be water as possible.
Take a couple B12 vitamins a couple hours before the test. They will make you piss yellow even if it's all water.
That said, you might still be fucked. I've used this method to pass a test in under 24 hours but YMMV. My metabolism is ridiculous.
Good luck, comrade.
Apparently he had his gun drawn so he could use the attached flashlight. I'm not a gun person but doesn't that mean the safety wasn't engaged? Why would you disengage the safety if you're just using the flashlight? Anyway that wall was a terrorist.
Woo! High score! We're number one!
Excuse me while I quietly cry in the corner.
At one point in my life I was doing a lot of intravenous oxycodone et al. I loved pushing my limits and was very good at it, apparently. At one point, and this wouldn't be the last time but was probably the first, I put about 130mg of oxycodone into one needle. I remember getting tunnel vision and a rushing sound in my ears. I woke up several hours later. A few months later I decided to look into those symptoms. Basically early onset overdose. Those were interesting times for me.
Only 787 of them? These days it seems like they're all falling apart.
While no one really wants to hear this, and I preface this with I still struggle sometimes, but lots of therapy and venlafaxine (SNRI) is what did it for me. The medication got the endless, racing, intrusive thoughts and memories to slow down so I could sleep. Then the therapy did the rest. I'm off the meds now and just smoke a lot of weed, and drink a couple times a week still. Not perfect, but better. The pills made it hard for me to get off, so I opted to manage it myself once I'd had things under control for about a year.
Hi all! Things are getting better but I'm at the end of my money and don't get paid till tomorrow. A little money for food till then would be grand.
Thank you!

Well I made it 20 days without having to ask for help here, but it's that time again. I could just use a little bump for toilet paper and some food. I'm not going to make rent on the 1st but my apartment complex said they can give me until the 15th to pay without filing eviction paperwork. I'll have to pay late fees but that still helps. Looks like I'm getting my raise to 14 an hour starting next Saturday, I believe. And I've already been told I'll have 40 hours the week starting the 13th, as I'll be covering for someone.
But for now I'm still behind and struggling. I appreciate all your help, my friends. ~$20 should do me for now.
Edit: all taken care of!
I hope you're all doing well!
Won't say where. But I saw one of you fuckers in public today. Trenchcoat with hammer and sickle patches, free Palestine shirt, long hair and shit kickers.
I was preoccupied, but hi comrade!
Almost there comrades! I should be able to pay my rent all by myself come the New Year. In the meantime I am once again asking for your financial support. I don't need much or even a specific amount, just a bit for food and the like. I need some toothpaste, etc.
You're all beautiful people.
--- Fulfilled. Thank you comrade!
Good attention grabber huh? Don't worry, I don't use it and I'm not trying to say I should.
I recently hung out with my neighbors. They really wanted to smoke me out. I'm 32 living in what is essentially off campus student apartments. 4 bed 4 bath, etc.
They're all Hispanic in this apartment (above me). 2 are from South America - I forget which country - and 2 are from South Florida.
They throw around the N word, never pejoratively. As the only white guy in the room I'm not saying shit.
Question is, is this okay? As a white guy idk.
One of them also said the f slur for gay people and immediately apologized - 'sorry if that offended you '. That one I did tell him he knew it was wrong because he apologized immediately. I have a love always wins bracelet and a rainbow lanyard, very visible.
I'm 10+ years older than these kids. I'm honestly trying to figure out if this is baked-in or if they're just dumb kids and maybe I can be a positive influence. If it's baked-in then I'll just peace out. I don't know the culture and don't want to judge from an uninformed perspective.
I don't mean to unnecessarily gender this discussion. Gender here doesn't matter. But I'm going to use gendered words as they fit the context. I want everyone's opinion.
My dad died from bronchial cancer two days before my 12th birthday. I had to learn how to be a 'man' from my ill mother.
What I want to know is, if you had to import some wisdom to preteen me, about the fundamentals of life, what would it be?
I've barely learned to shave (and prefer a beard anyway). What can you teach me Hexbear?
I'm 32 by the way. I'm just curious.
I like video. I can't help that I'm from the YouTube generation. Please suggest good commie YouTubers.
Theory, news, etcetera.
I'm a baby leftist and still learning. You keep using this phrase. I'm sure I live in it but I'd like to know what Hexbears define as the imperial core.
