I know things are relatively calm right now, so I thought it'd be a good opportunity to check in with everyone. If you just need someone to talk to, or if you wanna get something off your chest or need advice, I'm here to listen. If you don't want me to know who you are, you can send it anonymously, or privately.

Do you think the agrii are specifically targeting people who are some kind of gay?

[pursuitofcappiness]

I don't think so, but why do you think that?

[the_freak]

Back home I could count the number of not straight people I knew on one hand. And none of them were open about it.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Well, I think maybe it could just be a shift in societal values. I know that when I was young, nobody said anything because homosexuality was criminalized. But nobody really cares here.

Why¹ don't you want anything?

¹how, when, where

[pursuitofcappiness]

[ OK he isn't expecting this post to go like this ]

Gonna need you to elaborate.

[in_extremis]

I thought my footnote covered all of the necessary elaboration.

You never want anything, I don't know how to do that.

[pursuitofcappiness]

I want a lot of things, just mostly not material or quantifiable. Why are you even anonymous?

does pineapple belong on pizza?

[ she's going for an inconsequential and lighthearted question. there's been too much serious shit to think about here lately. ]

[pursuitofcappiness]

If you like it, you could get whatever you want on pizza. Personally, I only want thick-cut pepperoni, maybe mushrooms. I guess I kinda understand why people are against fruit on pizza, but they don't have to eat it. I don't know why it's controversial.

[ephemerios]

people can be very protective of pizza toppings, I guess. I'd rather just have the pineapple. 😂

[pursuitofcappiness]

Honestly even though I'm not a fan, I'd love some right now, even with pineapple on top.

What do you do when you miss people?

[pursuitofcappiness]

I draw them. Look at their photos... hold them up to the things that I think they'd like to see.

And if it gets to be too much, I call a friend I have here. And remind myself I'm lucky to have people here too.

[thepurpleone]

Yeah, photos don't really help with the missing them part.

I guess that's sound advice though, I shall take it under consideration.

[pursuitofcappiness]

I don't think remembering makes you miss them less, but in my experience, it does help. Kinda almost makes them feel present.

best chili dog toppings go

[pursuitofcappiness]

Cheese. Griddled onions. Corn. Green onions.

We don't have any of those things.

[spinsandneedles]

corn??? I never would have thought to put corn on a chili dog

And don't remind me man, im going through withdrawals over here

Why?

[That's it that's the question.]

[pursuitofcappiness]

Why what?

[sinistral]

The rest of the question is up to interpretation.

[pursuitofcappiness]

I'm not trying to replace your therapy, you should still go to that.

[buildingitsir]

bold of you to presume we HAVE therapy here
because we don't
figured with a post like that you were trying to fill in the role
and if you are?
good luck
