The "What's on your mind?" thread

[VictoryAtNight]

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice
When she was just small
When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know
When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head
Feed your head

Awesome.

Is there some kind of rare medical condition that makes some people feel cold even though it's hot and humid outside? Maybe a defective gene? I ask because I see people walking around wearing sweaters and even hoodies. Just looking at them makes me sweat.

BTW, there's still a sizable number of the population that missed the memo that COVID is no longer a health emergency. Poor folks are still walking around with masks on - even outside!

Thankfully most seem to have gotten past it, so it annoys me when I see someone still smothering their face with one, even in muggy, 90-degree weather.

Some people still wear masks because they are immunocompromised. I am one of them. I am following medical advice by wearing a mask when I am in public.

I try not to judge people on this issue because I have no way of knowing why they are wearing one. It's also none of my business. I do not question people for not wearing a mask and I feel that I should be afforded the same courtesy while wearing one.

it's kindof sad i used all way up to college play videogames buy them smackdown vs raw games these days however i don't know old age or what but i don't play much videogames at all anymore fallen out so to speak

i guess because ever since i jump ship to bluray to 4k's few years ago my mentality these days just buy 4k's movies time to time<-basically i just like watching movies and tv shows these days besides going to amc theater see new movies if can old movies other then watching wrestling<-been since young kid

i used to back in day buy a 50 xbox live gift cards when used to expire and had to renew

i think games these days not like they used to be back in 80,90's i guess i'm just an old man falling out of games and not hip these days meh

yet i still got not hook up nes classic game cube xbox 360 now i do like video games old school that is

have any of you falling out don't play video games like you used to when you were young back in the day or still playing

For me it's not about judging people. Anyone is free to wear whatever they want to their heart's content - it's about being reminded of a sad and stressful chapter of recent human history. I'm sure some of those folks who still wear masks have their own legit reasons but I wonder how many of the rest are just not aware that it's OK to take those things off now. I mean, why would you wear a mask in your OWN CAR?

[Blu Lemmy]

You clearly take exception to it, just let people be people.

When you have to wear a mask as often as I do, sometimes I simply forget that I am still wearing it. Also, if I am making a series of stops one right after the other it is just easier to leave the mask on.

so i assumed all of you guys still playing videos games on here i'm talking about the older folks like me btw

[stvn1974]

I am going to start wearing a mask again since it seems to piss so many people off.

My obsession ended with cartridge-based video games. I never got into computer games or whatever came after. I understand now it's something you download directly to a PC? Consoles aren't even needed?

Make sure you double up, and add a shield and gloves. Go for the whole package.

[ChadFL]

Having not handled a lot of falling outs with people throughout my life very well, partly due to my lifelong mental illnesses, partly due to ill treatment from others, I more and more come back to a quote I came across some years ago. By taking these words to heart, I have reconciled with quite a few people I never imagined I would, some becoming very close friends.

"Forgive and let go of the pain that someone has caused you. No, it's not easy - but it's necessary in order to make room for the good things that life has in store for you."
