Have your goals. Feel your feelings. But don’t expect to jump to the other side of the ocean. Set small goals and revel in your daily/weekly wins.
For example, I wanted to eat better and save money, when I was young and had no money. It was harder then, but I tallied up all the fast food money I was spending, and realized if I didnt buy fastfood I could afford more and better groceries including more fresh vegetables and meats. And STILL saved some money.
So I watched my grocery bill and stopped eating fast food, ended up with some extra cash each month, and even lost a few pounds.
This is a small thing, but I felt more in control of my life, and it made me happy.
Modern banking apps have search features to make tallying your spending easy
I agree that anon shouldn’t have given away their existing tasks. And that being fired is the likely end of this road.
Just clarifying that if you are doing your stated tasks, you aren’t in some sort of legal violation by not seeking more work. You.might get passed over for a later promotion, or deemed as dead weight in a layoff round, but you aren’t doing anything criminal
They offered to pay on the gamble you’d say no and look like the bad guy to your kid.
If you go, arrange for it to be just you and your kid, for YOUR week, then fly home
They might get fired but no one has to “seek” extra work, there’s no legal obligation. If they do their simple existing task, they are meeting known expectations.
Very online folks word lawyering to the n-th degree. Language shifts and has different meanings in different countries.
To play along, I’ve heard “expat” to refer to someone on a work appointment with a fixed timeline, say, someone who works for Microsoft being sent to France for 2 years. I’ve heard many Americans say “I’m immigrating to” to mean they are going through permeant resident or citizen pathways with the host country.
Others have a different read of the word, but as long as you aren’t a jerk wherever you are going, it won’t ever come up
Flip this list and you’re good to go (maybe keep the burger)
It’s a great track.
There’s another (of many cool things those artists do) called “sonny”, that is about men’s suicide awareness. It’s not “fun” but I think it’s a great message.
Surrounded by flames at the end of an 18 hour shift. When it matters, you fuckin hear it.
Fuck your Honda Civic, I’ve a horse outside
This is a generalization. Lots of American families of all backgrounds can have alcohol during family meals and social time.
People have drinks at birthday parties. At dinners. All of the above.
Just the basics

For sure. I’m not shitting on change, I’m only calling out that if someone successfully invokes chaos, there’s 50%ish of people who see that vacuum with very different eyes
The trick, imo is if you call for chaos and violence to get from a to b.
If you do, you’re admitting to being ok with a gamble, and that “your brand” wins out, that the power vacuum is filled in an orderly manner, and that a greater level of peace and “quality” of society arrives after the dust settles.
Yep. Trump has a fuckin merch line. Tiny little billboards reminding people every day.
To just create your own versions, for your own use? No issues.
Meh people are gonna come down on you in this thread for not being some perfect picture of a parent/person, but you are considering things, trying to find the best path to be respectful and decent. It’s ok to acknowledge your wishes in a “private” conversation where you weigh the consequences of things.
Imo this is your son’s relationship with the friend. Let that run it’s course, and just read the signals along the way.
