People out here believing that governments are taking care of anyone not rich, anywhere..
If you aren't sacrificing your serfs you aren't a first world country.

By blackace Go To PostPeople out here believing that governments are taking care of anyone not rich, anywhere..Fair. I think I chose the wrong time for the sentiment, people that have already been through bullshit deserve respect and solidarity. Positive energy

We still have old people dying every winter because they can't afford the heating.
I doubt there's a country on earth that has the will and the systems in place to catch everybody when they need help and don't have anybody close to give it to them.
Maybe universal healthcare has distorted the image that people can have of Europe

By Hitch Go To PostWe still have old people dying every winter because they can't afford the heating.It's possible. I've only ever lived in one country, and I forget not to generalize pithily especially when it makes certain people assume you meant the most negative thing

Apologies to all who I offended both in and out of the US
By Daz Go To PostThe Nordic countries do alright with safety nets.But yet, homelessness and disparity still exist.
There's no utopia out there, only baldness.
By Lunatic Go To PostNordic countries also have oilIt is only a matter of time before they will need liberation
By blackace Go To PostIt is only a matter of time before they will need liberationagain
By Hitch Go To PostMaybe universal healthcare has distorted the image that people can have of EuropeY’all have great PR. There’s maybe two or three European countries I would move to that wouldn’t be a downgrade compared to Canada.
Edit: this sounds kind of douchey
Yesterday I had a couple of friends around for dinner.
It was one of the 2 couples of my close group of friends, the girl I have an huge crush on and a good friend of mine (he trusts me more than anyone else, told me secrets that would destroy at least one family, doesn't like the girl I have a crush on but she has been clearly after him).
I have two sofas in my living room, we were all a bit tipsy and the couple stayed on the big sofa while that other 3 stayed on the smaller one.
The girl I have a crush on used my friend to lay her legs and me as pillow to rest her head.
We stayed like this even after the couple left.
In one of our cigarette breaks, we were talking about depression and I ended up talking a bit more about me than the girl knew.
She gave me a big hug and both her and the guy said I should write the story of my life.
The thing they don't know is that I sort of been already doing it.
I actually already asked the girl to talk about her experience of studying in Italy.
My plan is to write a short story about someone studying abroad to better incorporate the feeling of displacement I felt when I moved from my island to the mainland.
The issue is I somehow write better drunk than sober.
I somehow wrote an 7000+ characters paragraph in English despite being very drunk.
So far, my favourite pieces of the story were written while drunk, thank God for Google's Keep Notes.

By LFMartins86 Go To PostYesterday I had a couple of friends around for dinner.Good luck with that writing. Sounds like you were already on it, before the gal said anything about it.. but just make sure that it stays a project that you wanted to do because you connected with the topic. Not a project you want to do to smash that girl...

shoot your fucking shot already there's literally a global plague going around what are you waiting for bro

Not a project you want to do to smash that girl…Yeah, some of the chapters have been written well before she was in the picture.
It has nothing to do with her, I have written some things in the past that I deleted because a few characters were too close to people I know.
This time than l don't really care about the rest of the people. Names and situations have been changed enough that only the person's involved will know about.
This will probably won't go anywhere but putting into words definitely is a healing process.
I find that people have a hard time understanding the difference "work with" vs "work for" when it comes to relationship management in business.
Just found out I didnt make it for the professional exams I sat in Nov - Just dont think I can make it doing full time work as well.
By Daz Go To PostJust found out I didnt make it for the professional exams I sat in Nov - Just dont think I can make it doing full time work as well.
sorry, man. what professional exams, though?
Thanks, guys - feeling really down - so much time, effort, money and absolute devastation of my mental health during such a hectic period at work as well.
By Daz Go To PostJust found out I didnt make it for the professional exams I sat in Nov - Just dont think I can make it doing full time work as well.Dang, that sucks, man. I have faith you will bounce back.
By sy Go To PostWhat are professional exams? Google is failing me.Any exam required for a specific profession. Could be any number of things, like an accounting qualification, a Microsoft certification, etc.
By data Go To PostWe're all gonna make itI’m not
By FortuneFaded Go To PostI’m notyou already made it!
By data Go To PostWe're all gonna make itWanna bet?
By sy Go To PostWanna bet?
If you bet you don’t make it and in fact don’t mKe it does that mean you won and therefore made it
Just had police at my apartment because I mentioned that I plan on killing myself in the future online. Fun times.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostGot a third and final job interview tomorrow for a position I’m coveting at my current firm. There’s also excellent exit ops in a year or two if I want to bounce.Well lads, I didn't get this. A little bummed but eh, all good. Looks like the position went to someone who is relatively overqualified for it *shrugs* thems the breaks.
By FortuneFaded Go To PostJust had police at my apartment because I mentioned that I plan on killing myself in the future online. Fun times.Geez, I'm sorry.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostWell lads, I didn't get this. A little bummed but eh, all good. Looks like the position went to someone who is relatively overqualified for it *shrugs* thems the breaks.Fuck. This is going to be me in the following days/weeks isn’t it?
By Perfect Blue Go To PostWell lads, I didn't get this. A little bummed but eh, all good. Looks like the position went to someone who is relatively overqualified for it *shrugs* thems the breaks.After I completed my masters, I got to the final rounds for positions at 4 major companies. 4 bloody assessment days as well as all the preceeding interviews, and didn't manage to get any of them. It doesn't matter though, you can get any job and if you're good you'll still find yourself alright in a few years.
By Kibner Go To Postdang to both of you
By FortuneFaded Go To PostJust had police at my apartment because I mentioned that I plan on killing myself in the future online. Fun times.
Hey man, I hope you are good. Don’t be afraid to talk about stuff here if you need to. Always people who are willing to listen.
