i don't see why we still experiment on animals when there are plenty of people who would volunteer to be tested on, some not even wanting money in exchange. the way scientists test rats isn't even relevant to humans most of the time. say you're studying the effects of some chemical in soda on humans. they inject that chemical like 500x the amount a human would ever ingest into the rat. what is that supposed to show us?

Really? I'm in western Europe so maybe it's different from the US but I paid 750€ for direct flights during the summer of 2014, which is more than half of what I paid in 2023/2024 for a flight with a stopover. I'm never going there again in summer, hopefully it'll be more accessible in November or February.

So they are really strict on that? Won't attempt if it is like that, my plan is mostly to be there to enjoy it as a tourist but with a prolonfed stay.

Idk how they'd catch you so why not? If you're just holed up in a hotel room for a few hours and then leave that wouldn't make anyone suspicious.
If for whatever reason the hotel staff are spies and they keep track of you not leaving for 7-8h a day during normal work hours and snitch on you (sounds unlikely), then you could still just work in like 2h sessions and bring your laptop to a cafe and such to work there for a few hours without them knowing.
Also move hotels every so often and do actual tourist stuff in breaks. Like idk it just seems like they have bigger fish to fry than a single tourist doing a tiny bit of remote work.

Isn't tourist visa for stays over 3 months? You don't even need a tourist visa if you stay under 3 months, and you could even leave and fly to korea or something and go back a day later if you didn't want the visa. I've had probably a dozen friends do remote work while staying there for a few weeks-months at a time. Unless they're all breaking the law kek. But nobody will care

My childhood is all kinds of fucked up, even my therapist is amazed by all the messed up stuff I've been through. One thing I have noticed is when looking through my sister's photos on Facebook, she looks like a total stranger to me. There's this internal dissociation I'm feeling of me attempting to imagine her being in the house with me when we were younger, and it's really difficult to even do that. This has happened to me multiple times. Then I start feeling like I'm not myself, questioning if this is my fault I was never really close to my sister, even though we shared a room for years, I can't even imagine her when we were younger, but I know this is because my parents mentally distanced us.

No. 2536138

My dad reached out for the first time in 5 years to make me FaceTime my dying grandma who he’d cut our family off from our whole lives. She looked and sounded like a corpse, so far gone that I couldn’t really understand her but she was clearly emotional seeing my face for the first time in 15 years. Two days later she died. I didn’t feel anything because I didn’t know her. It made me angry that I never got to have a chance to have a relationship with my grandparent because of him. He later texted and asked me if it was normal to not feel anything at the funeral. I feel like I inherited his psychopathy sometimes. I don’t hate him anymore because hatred expends too much of my energy. There is a giant empty void where my heart should be.

Not me; but I see this happening to my youngest niece and it breaks my heart. I don't live in the same city as my sibling so there's not much I can do for her, but I do what I can and tell her she's not too much or a devil child and I'd want my future kid to be just like her.

E por fim, cresci de insulto em insulto
Eu me vi como um adulto
Culto, pronto pra o que mesmo? Já não sei
Olho e não encontro
Penso se eu não fui um tonto
De acreditar no conto
Do vigário que escutei
Não tem carro me esperando
Não tem mesa reservada
Só uma piada sem graça de português
Não tem vinho nem champanhe ou taça
Só um dedo de cachaça
E um troco magro todo fim de mês

I recall when I was small how I spent my days alone
The busy world was not for me, so I went and found my own
I would climb the garden wall with a candle in my hand
I'd hide inside a hall of rock and sand

On the stone an ancient hand in a faded yellow-green
Made alive a worldly wonder often told but never seen
Now and ever bound to labor on the sea and in the sky
Every man and beast appeared a friend as real as I

Before the fall when they wrote it on the wall when there wasn't even any Hollywood
They heard the call and they wrote it on the wall for you and me, we understood

Can it be this sad design could be the very same?
A wooly man without a face and a beast without a name

I can't drive since I've drank, but I want to get more beverages to drink more. I know I can take 2-3 more drinks (which I don't have right now) before getting into the "silly" territory, where I do dumb shit and laugh. I really want to have more alcohol, but ordering it is humiliating. I can afford both, but would I rather have delivered trash-food or more alcohol? I must decide. I like to level-out my hedonism.
