It’sreally good that you are seeing a therapist. I think it’s better to have professional help whenever possible.

Hope things get better.

I blame Yoda for their “do or do not; there is no try” maxim.

How do you call your cousins?

If one is not inclined to social gatherings but still feel a need for something to signal this passage (or any other), a good option is to perform a personal ritual of choice.

Human brains seem to be inclined to appreciate symbolism.

I zoomed to read the package bc I like when they use parody brand names. “Swodnoc”.

This wasn’t my case, my parents were very well adjusted for the most part but it did happen to a former partner. It was usually accompanied by a deep silence and denial. Hope it gradually gets more normalized to at least talk about it; even if therapeutic alternatives may not be available, having support from friends and family is a huge improvement.

Then = 2 hours later.

Ganon looks so much like Roy, whom I rescued years ago, but had to rehome. I’m sorry for your loss.

If you use it frequently, and have money to spare for that (after maybe considering other projects that may better align with you personally), yes.

I donate a small amount every year. Before now, I had not given much thought about its internal politics or whether they really need it to stay afloat (my contribution is too small to make a difference anyway).

To me, it’s more of a way of being thankful for having ad-free content with a good enough material.
