Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

things are in fact going extremely badly but we'll see if they pick up starting tomorrow night for reasons that will preclude me being here for about a week (seeing my SO)

New job started this week after 10 years, 18% increase, love my new coworkers...

But depression sucks. LOL

Sorry to hear about your depression. Sounds like a hell of a bump from your old job - good on you for getting the job!!

[–] Quexotic@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Thanks! Hopefully it'll help relieve stress in other places.

It's an interesting journey being neurospicy.

I spent half a decade with depression. It sucks.

I recommend reading, or even better listening to, the storm light archive. Sanderson's writing style isn't for everyone but the series is almost like therapy in a book; especially Kaladin's story, he's got the big sad too.

Thanks. I'll look for it now.
