    Facebook is wired really. It recommends the weirdest stuff. One video was a tattoo woman dancing outside then I scrolled them two women speaking Spanish then a polish woman in a car afraid to go to an audition. I then stopped scrolling and left.

    IMO, only if you have a purpose. I am too shy to talk to most of the people at my church so I decided to resurrect my Facebook account so I could have a place to talk to them.

    I found a bunch of long lost relatives on facebook. Found a whole new branch of the family on there. Now we can look at photos of each others' lives. I watch their children go through the military or cheer when they graduate college. Little kids I used to babysit, I can watch their families grow. And in them I see the face of her older brother, my friend, who died as a teenager.
    Is discord worth joining again? I’m scared that I’ll get harassed off it again like last time.

    Took me some time to come to grips with the reality that the only relatively "safe" domain to participate in is this one. When you have a "colorful history" as I did in other unrelated forums, you may eventually come to a similar conclusion.

    Have I ever contemplated returning? Yes. Will I ? No.

    I join some relatively small discords. Everything gets spoiled the bigger it gets I find.
    I’m getting bad intrusive thoughts about telling ppl they smell if they don’t shower everyday. Like I need to or something bad will happen.
    Stay away from the website kick.com please.

    Do you know that personally?
    Or from reading about the place?

    @tree from doing some research on the website and stumbling upon a YouTube video talking about the controversies of the website,

    Kick is unmoderated and has many absolutely disgusting (and somewhat shockingly relatively popular) communities. I never want to even look it up. Those video essays about kick can not be fake at this point.
    Does anxiety medication like buspar at a higher dose of 10mg tend to cause dizziness upon first taking a higher dosage for the first time? I’m guessing it’s a one time thing.

    From my experience with dizziness, I would recommend getting up from a sitting or lying position more slowly and carefully, be prepared to sit back down if you can't stand up. Dizziness is your body's way of getting you lower down to aid in circulating blood to your brain. Don't try to stand if things are spinning. I hope this will lessen as you get used to your meds :-)
    what is the key to not being depressed?

    Sadness can arise from unfulfilled desires. By directing one's attention to giving and sharing, we can take our minds of what we don't have (or feel we're missing) and instead focus on what we have. And freely giving can be very empowering on its own.

    Unfortunately, there is not one key.
    Depression is too complex for a simple answer.

    5 potential keys:
    - get help (therapy, medication, people that understand)
    - exercise outside
    - drink water, eat real food, sleep only at night
    - write about your feelings
    - stay active with hobbies and tasks
    These thumbnails/secret gaming room videos to hide from blank have to be fake right?

    I actually went and looked at one of those on Youtube itself, ye gods talk about attention-grabbing tactics. Everything is screamy and exaggerated and colors and loudness.

    And yes the thumbnails are fake. I looked at the couch one, the room is behind the couch, not in it somehow. Though they do make it so you can lift the cushion up and go THROUGH the couch for... some reason.

    is this a scam?

    Also just as a general rule, any time something has you asking "is this a scam", it's best to just not touch whatever it is.

    I think that’s a scam. A lot of those are going around. The electric bill scam is the biggest right now.

    Trace the phone number they provided through a search engine. That's a Southern California area code. Whomever actually has that number is not the federal government. Whatever you do, don't click on the links they provided.

    That's great. Maybe start a post on it. State what you hope to achieve. We do have many artists here.

    Honestly, you might need to interact on Reddit (Terrible i know) but it has a very big community. Or Give twitter a go, though be careful of the questionable people there.

    I don’t think apples look like that. The type of apple pictured above is a Cosmic Crisp apple

    I have to agree. It looks like a ceramic apple.

    Beware Milk Duds and salt water taffy. My stepfather no longer eats those candies because they can rip out permanent crowns with ease.

    And, I'm feeling a bit chill. I spent the day having brunch with friends and going to a club as part of the Traverse City Comedy Fest with them. Then, visiting a furnishings store to look at candidates to replace two 20 year old chairs in the living room. $$$, but, soon we will have a couple of nice chairs to recline in. I have saved us nearly the price of a chair by doing a lot of our maintenance, myself.
    Has anyone here ever taken Buspar for anxiety? My new doctor is starting a 2 times a day dosage of the medication (5mg) in conjunction with a 40mg dosage of the current anxiety medication I’m on.

    Good luck with it. I hope it gives you relief.
    Everyone’s been talking abt a cold outbreak that’s been going on. First, some of my coworkers get it, and then I start to show symptoms of a cold yesterday morning.

    At my work when one person gets a cold it circles around the same 3-4 people. I don't really catch it though, as I'm hygienic and I have a good immune system.
