>stressed about work this morning and feeling like a failure. Why is there always dissatisfaction? I pour my heart and soul into my work!
>stressed about screwing up modding p+ and losing work and taking a while to fix it and getting really angry when i really shouldnt. I apologize and hope to reconcile
>thinking my dog was lost and searching for nearly 2 hours. Feeling like a moron
>stressing about my performance at work. Am i even good enough? I doubt it
>plans with friends falling through again for the second week in a row. Loneliness is awful

This is the first day in which ive cried in a full 2 years. I feel that my soul is DYING.

Just remember you're not alone in your struggles.

We all get purely crap days sometimes, and it doesn't help that times are hard for just about everyone right now on top of that. I'm sorry about all the other crap you went through today, but don't beat yourself up about work too much, bud. You worry about too much at once, and your problems are inevitably going to pile up and add on more unnecessary stress to your spirit.

Give yourself a little more credit for what you do, and look forward to a better tomorrow. I'm here for ya if you need to vent or talk, bud.

I was a terrible friend today, a garbage human being, a stressed out nutcase who's just trying to feel GOOD about himself, and someone who was stupid enough to think that my dog was lost when she was really in literally the darkest part of the house.

Yeah, and i quit counseling just to save money

Why the [bleep] am i so stupid and horrible?

 

[Hadokeyblade]

If this turns out to be true I'm actually kinda worried somebody is going to get sued or fired over this lol

Doing a poorer job at something or being stressed out every now and then doesn't make you a failure.

Please, look back on your better days and feel better about yourself in-turn...

and someone who was stupid enough to think that my dog was lost when she was really in literally the darkest part of the house.

Please, I make dumb mistakes like that all the time.

Nobody's immune to a screw-up like that. Shrug it off.

You might want to re-evaluate your financial situation and reconsider going back to it if these confidence and self-loathing problems are persisting...

Why the [bleep] am i so stupid and horrible?

You really, really need to stop beating yourself up like this...Doesn't matter how lowly you actually think of yourself. The deeper you dig this hole, the worse off you are, and the further you distance yourself from a breakthrough and feeling better about yourself again.

Severe self-loathing is not going to help you.

Because with the p+ thing concerning the mods malfunctioning earlier, i WAS already stressed from work, so that carried over and i got mad at a couple friends who were only trying to help. Ive apologized profusely but i feel like a horrible human being. They dont deserve that, and what does that say about me? Im supposed to be this leader and i ended up being a hypocrite and a raging bull. And i thought i would be better with this crap but im not so im spinning my wheels.

Why should i feel better about myself if my hard efforts arent appreciated by seemingly half the people im trying to lead? All is vanity!

And, i deserve to be beaten down. Let's be real here. But, gotta save up money for retirement so forget counseling. Woot woot.

Finally, in all seriousness, i DO appreciate your kindness and how you are talking to me about this. I am grateful. But try as i may, i can NOT convince myself that i deserve love nor satisfaction.

Edit: woah im derailing the thread. So sorry. Bye.

Well, regardless of whatever you think or say about yourself, I'm still your friend, and I'm sure plenty of other people still feel the same way, even including those friends you snapped at.

All I ask is that you try to clear your head tonight and reassess all of of your current thoughts at a later time when your mind is cleared and you're in a good, tranquil mood rather than an upset and stressed one. You'll be able to think more positively and rationally of yourself then.

Nobody's perfect, Hat. We all those days sometimes.

I wonder how the world would be if the Argentavis was still around.

There's no records or strong beliefs of these things ever hunting humans as prey to my knowledge, but if a bird of this size and wingspan just suddenly showed up in the sky one day, I can imagine that most people would probably be terrified.

I watched a video on these things recently.

They were most likely scavengers, like modern condors. Their beaks and claws are shaped more like Vultures and wouldn't be effective for restraining or killing living prey.

They were probably able to survive back then by scavenging off other species of megafauna, and were probably good at scaring predators away from their catches thanks to their size.

Another fun fact: Some scientists think it might not have been able to take off flight on its own, and instead would have to rely on strong winds or mountain slopes to start flying. Afterwards it probably used thermals to stay aloft, by soaring something modern vultures are also good at.

thinking my dog was lost and searching for nearly 2 hours. Feeling like a moron

I've had that happen before. Back when I still lived with my parents and shortly after we brought home our dog Kiddy, we noticed that she had been awfully quite and couldn't find her anyway in the yard. We spent a while searching around in a panic.

Turned out she had just been taking a nap under the RV in our side yard. We were a family of experienced pet owners and that still happened to us - its okay for these things to happen.

So basically, they could've been considered giant vultures. Or at least a giant bird with very similar structure, needs and behavior, barring some differences that come with a flying bird of their size and weight.

...Yeah, I can see that lol. Fascinating stuff in any case. Dinosaurs have been the biggest "giant animal" cultural phenomenon for a long time, now, but I'm just as fascinated by them as I am by all these giant versions of various other animals that have long gone extinct. It's wild to think that these huge things once roamed the Earth, but they really did. I can't imagine how our understanding of zoology, biology and ecosystems would be if any of these things survived to this day (or if the conditions that they were most suited for carried onto this day, too, for that matter).

 

[ZephyrZ]

You know what's just as neat as but not nearly as appreciated as giant versions of giant creatures? Tiny versions of giants.

Meet Magyarosaurus, the tiny sauropod and ironically a member of the group Titanosauria.

This thing was so tiny by sauropod standards that it was wanted by a giant pterosaur called Hatzegopteryx.

Island dwarfism is one heck of a drug.

I just finished Royal...

Man, I don't know how they did it, but they managed to turn a solid 9.5 into a full 10/10. The new additions and confidants, the new music, the quality of life improvements, even improving the rather problematic scenes... Sumi makes a wonderful thief (and yes, she was my romance option this playthrough and always future playthroughs - overtook Futaba as best girl) and I FREAKING BELIEVE... that final scene where it plays - they managed to top the final boss of the original and it truly was incredible.

In my top 3 games of all time, if I'm honest.

Not my best, but pretty fun to do.

I agree, but at the same time it does make sense for the kids. Makes it easier to market them and best Gwen together to them via having them all be 15-16 and coincidentally having spider powers at the same time.

also whats the other 10%?

definitely get it. Very fun game. Much Much Mario goodness

I would say the OG Ditko/Lee run is still great, and one of the few versions of Teen Peter that holds up almost as well as the best Adult Peter stories. And a good chunk of the first Ultimate Spider-Man run is pretty good too. Tho I admit I got mixed feelings on Bendis' writing overall. I think he's usually better when doing solo stuff like his Daredevil.

Cause he's a pretty cool dude. You got a favorite color scheme for the World? I dig the bright gold version from the TV series, over the sand color from the Capcom game and the OVA.

I'm the opposite, my favorite design of DIO is the OVA.

That and The World, I prefer its more mute colors, the overly bright colors aren't my type.

I still like that design. I think there's some things about the OVA fight that I like more than the TV version and vice versa. I dig the TV version's sound effect for The World, but I kind of wish it got rid of the music when time was frozen like the OVA, it really added to the effect.

Edit: woah im derailing the thread. So sorry. Bye.

Can't be any worse than how it usually is.

Know it's easier telling others than listening to your own advice most of the time, but don't be so hard on yourself for being human. Though KoP put it into words better than I could, at least a few people here are usually willing to lend an ear, and remind you that we appreciate your company. With any luck, you can make amends, things'll be better tomorrow/next week, or at the very least you'll have a better mind about it after some reflection/rest.

I prefer the OVA's Jotaro VS DIO compared to the anime, even if there isn't a roadroller. Though above all, I'll always prefer the manga, because that's what I grew up with. I've never fully watched the anime in full, I'm a manga-only type of dude.

I even have the official one digitally.

EDIT: Not talking about Shueisha's digitally colored variant either, I prefer black/white all of the time.

Mate, as someone who's been experiencing panic attacks for the past two months over pretty much everything going on right now, you have nothing to lose. I've been listening to a certain song from a certain cartoon to calm myself down. Maybe it'll be able to help you, too.

Spoiler: This really is set to be a timeless show.

Seconding what KoP said, nobody is perfect. We all make mistakes, that’s just part of being human. You’re far from a bad person. I’d just suggest taking some time to calm down.

So what have I missed last night?

Just had some trippy dreams. An 80s portable computer that can run games from 2010s, rainbow coloured prisoner camps in Uzbekistan and a talking chair.

I gotta stop drinking caffeine before bed.

Holy Mother of Bionis, I just fought & beaten the strongest unique monster I faced this far, Mischievious Naberius , at level 53. (for record, he is level 57)

While I did lost a couple of time, I still say I fared much better than that ****** I complained before and won't name because he doesn't deserve I know his name. Plus instead of being a slog, it was super intense, ether moves you can't dodge, AOE that are can kill your party if you don't pay attention & inflict daze on top of that or burn you & Titan Lazer.....which is actually the easiest move to deal with if you have Monado Shield upgraded to the right level.

Thank god too that Chain Attack allow you to survive attack that would kill you. and bless Dunban & Riki, you're the best.

Btw Lamperouge , did you fought this monster? If yes, how it went?

I remember him. Reminds me of why Dunban, Shulk and Riki combo is probably the best party variation overall in my opinion.

It's a very balanced party for sure. Tho I feel like I could have done it with Shulk/Dunban/Sharla, since Sharla got really good gems and skills/arts for the fight. After some try tho, I figured Riki jack-of-all-trades was much safer, especially since he got a art that confuse mechon, being able to heal and recover part of the party gauge. (ironically tho, he did died alot on my final try lol)
