Please, I can barely figure out which end of the pencil to use. Suicide is entirely beyond my capabilities. My statement wasn't meant like that, but I am very sorry for making you worry. I shoulda thought more.

Don't feel guilty because people care about you. Please.

Yeah, this.

I'm sorry for jumping the gun, too. A big wave of suicide went through my high school just as I left it and it doesn't seem like a "rare" or "unusual" thing to me. Sometimes your friends go down to the train tracks and don't come back, heh.

Let us aspire to spit in the faces of our enemies.

If we don't have any value, then surely we can scream at those who dismissed us!

I have some measure of self nowadays, though I remember not having it.
Things are rough and there's no "reasonable" option out of it.
Particularly when we're rural (in my past).

Let our exploiters eat the consequences of their actions.

It's much more effective if you punch them into the sun.

Insurance pushed back my neck fusion surgery essentially indefinitely. Why? I hadn't had an MRI yet. Because they scheduled it after the surgery was supposed to happen. They've done this to me a couple of times to push back costs or whatever, so I kind of expected it. I'm just so tired of the insurance games.

Published information (news reports, games, etc) sources that use a lowercase 'm' instead of capital 'M' to designate multiples of 106.

There is just no attention to detail any more.

EDIT: I just saw something that used 't' (lowercase T) to represent 109.  I don't even know any more.   :-\

Man, and here I'm irritated at typos in subtitles. I'm also a little irritated about me that I'm detail-picky enough to make a fuss about typos in subtitles. Like, why should I notice/care?

Oh! Here's an actual sad!

My hard drive ate shit. I've no backup for the Win10 license key that was piloting the system, my Noita savedata is gone, and my folder of zesty memes and fun audio snippets is wholly inaccessible. No warnings, no sector read errors, just sploot and the whole thing is invisible.

Admittedly, in all my time computing, this is the first I've actually suffered a data loss, so I'll consider myself lucky up to this point. On the bright side, I can swap out the drive from my spare PC for a net gain of storage space and can finally set up a Lubuntu-Win10 dual-boot long as nobody minds win10's in yohoho mode.

If the platter itself is still good you have chances of recovering the data if important enough, but it will cost you money. If there were not weird sounds prior or anything most likely the board or a component of the board failed, which is "easy" to fix. You just need the exact same board from another hard drive.

Yeah, nah, it's not that important. It's also a solid state, and upon reflection, I suspect that windows was either thrashing it or it was about ready to fail anyways (I didn't get it new). Also, it might've been making clicking noises idly and surely that's not a healthy sign for a drive with no moving parts.

Ach, well. I put a lot of creative effort into collecting those memes! >:E

Whoops, didn't see you there.
What did you say?

And so on and so fourth, until the day I die.

Except of course someone will still trip over my corpse, because they didn't see me there.

For the past couple of days there have been a lot of forest fires in Southern and Central Greece . It's almost as if a new one is popping every couple of hours and some of them have reached residential areas. There is no sign of them dying down any time soon.
