have you seen what happens if you say you didn't like it? you're told you're a troll, you're negative, you "just don't get it", or they take your criticism and then act like the only alternative is the complete and total opposite of that and try and pull a 'gotcha'
on one hand I would obviously LOVE for reviews (across the board, not just in gaming) to be realistic and not all be 7+/10 but I also understand why they don't to an extent
I've read through a lot of your discussions on both accounts and you seem to not only be generally quite hostile but it you are abusing and devaluing words like transphobic and ableist by applying them to anything you can't relate to
my god my entire lemmy feed is about AI all day everyday to the point I truly hope it does gain consciousness and eats my eyeballs
wait I looked over your post history and you're definitely a bot ! and this post is definitely generated, it seems every article from this site starts off by saying the same phrase 3 different times
this article is so bad I'm convinced you didn't actually read it...
it starts off attributing a quote to the wrong person and then repeats that same quote two times in a row, once as a statement and then again as a quote ! lol
attitudes such as this one are my biggest complaint tbh
wut
the US is very progressive — what sucks is that it's on a state-by-state basis so it's at the same time very conservative lol
but places like the west coast and northeast are very forward. Philadelphia for example has a whole gayborhood filled with gay bars and the most obnoxious LGBT people you've ever met
I replaced reddit sync with jerboa and the only time I bother with reddit now is if I'm googling "[question] reddit" or for /r/popheads
ok wait this is my moment lol
so I've always been the one to take on others energy for them - listen to them complain, try and help everyone, always try my absolute best. I had a lot going on and my stress built and built and built until I (thanks to therapy) started to notice warning signs of burnout (I was always overstimulated, not sleeping enough, not eating enough, dreaded going to bed but also dreaded getting out of bed because I didn't want to deal with tomorrow).
I ended up taking FMLA for 2 weeks and focusing entirely on stress management and it's been a couple weeks back at work and I still feel really great.
Remember that you are human, and that if you continuously set a bar of 100% you are setting yourself up for failure. You will have bad days, just accept it and do your best without comparing it to others or to yourself on a good day
Feel comfortable setting boundaries! You don't have to allow negativity into your life, and if people are dumping excess stress onto you feel free to exit the conversation. No need for feeling guilty because they will have moved on within the hour (they have their own life)
The first hour of your day is crucial. If you wake up and immediately go on your phone (information overload) you are setting yourself up for overstimulation which does not help you out when dealing with stress! Take a nice shower, read a book — I listen to piano in minor and write a poem — just something that allows you to ease into your day. Waking up and immediately hustling will lead to burnout. I can't emphasize this point enough!
Sleep and eat! Poor sleep habits add up over time and your body and mind are much more protected against stress when you're giving them the tools to deal with it.
Accept stress. It's going to come! There are two key parts here — One, when you catch yourself accumulating stress, pause and ground yourself. Slow yourself down. Breathe, walk a little more leisurely. When you do these things your body will signal to your mind that you're safe. Two, don't think of stress as an unequivocally negative thing — stress is a tool that CAN be managed and it's a powerful tool for productivity. That said, as with all powerful tools you absolutely have to practice safety.
And lastly, and this is gonna sound obvious, MAKE TIME to relax! It's easy to say you can't make time for relaxation but flip the script for a moment and ask yourself, could you make time for another task?
jerboa when it feels like working but as soon as sync releases I'm switching over
you can have interest in both. the news can't constantly keep people's focus on things that happen every day, people stop caring. also your own article states there was action taken.
I guess I kinda understand your frustration but if you choose to look at everything from that angle you might as well not participate in the news, it will burn you out
