     Then don't get married if you feel that way. But be aware that "society" owes you nothing and "men" owe you nothing. This includes tax-and-spend wealth redistribution policies from men to women.

     So how do you intend to provide food, shelter, water, and medicine for yourself?

     @NEETzsche I have a job, I work with men, I work for men, they sign my paychecks, I hate society yet I still participate in it, I know all the shit you're about to say. And I don't care. I don't mind having to be around faceless men as long as they remain faceless. I don't want men in my personal life.
     
     Say hi to sundowner for me.

     That's fair enough, actually. I actually appreciate wanting to distance yourself from men, in particular if you've had a course of bad experiences with them. I'm not the biggest fan of society, either, but for different reasons than yours.

     What does @sundowner have to do with this, though?

     No, actually, I didn't know that. But it makes sense. You're not acting quite like your average Spinster.

     @NEETzsche @sundowner Trust me I say a lot of edgy shit on here. Mostly for shits and giggles. Though I do actually consider myself a radfem now and I prefer not to be involved with men anymore. I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life but I still need to quit smoking weed. I'm workin on it. How are you

     I'm pretty good. Laying low. Waiting for the other shoe to drop economically and politically. Hoping to be allowed to sit it out and not have my hand forced into committing violence or what-not. Working on my hobbies and shit to keep my mind brisk.

     Did they put you on any meds for your BPD?

     So how have you been keeping a lid on your emotionally issues?

     @NEETzsche @sundowner I don't think BPD really exists, you know. But whatever.
     
     The emotional issues came to a halt for the most part. I know it's only been like 6 months but a lot of changes have happened in my life and I had to handle them like an adult. I won't go into details unless you're super interested. Also I don't pine over men who once had their hand shoved up my ass anymore so that helped ig

     Have you come around to my view that psychiatry is, at least for the most part, just about pathologizing personality?

     Anyway, yes, I do understand. When real life hits, people kind of learn to shed their eccentricities and start functioning, for real, because they know to do otherwise is to perish. So yes, I think I "get it" without having to know the details.

     @NEETzsche @sundowner Psychiatry is a scam and most disorders have no foundation in reality. BPD in particular is just an excuse to drug angry women into being docile which I find terrible. Most of my psychiatrists were Jewish which I'm sure means something to you.
     
     I haven't changed my opinion about Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber or what they did to me, but they're not worth my time. Awful people are better best forgotten (not forgiven)

     That is, basically, my view of psychiatry. And I recall telling you this view some time ago. Glad to see you come around.

     What do you spend your time doing now? Aside from just work, go home, Interwebs, sleep

     Yeah, I understand. Fuck that company. Yo, when that company you're working for starts hiring techies again for real, if ever, tell me. I don't even hesitate to do professional networking over fedi or other online services now. This is how the WFH revolution functions.

     Crocheting is a good hobby. My zine is chugging along. I just recently started running Quests on fedi instead of /qst/, which you can see here: https://iddqd.social/@qm/posts/AiKJrAVlakfyMZ7duS

     @NEETzsche @sundowner Birdwatching and working mostly. Sometimes skating. I have a new job now. Lost my old one cause they put me on a PIP without much reason, fired me a week later, then gave my job to the director of infrastructure's brother. That was one of those life changes I was telling you about. But they got humiliated during the court hearing for my unemployment benefits appeal, and now I have a new job working from home for one of Ohio's top companies, though I won't say which one. I love it.
     
     So yes I'm at home a lot but I kinda like being a creature of solitude, at least for now. I wanna take up crocheting (and I still participate in occasional hellthreads for a laugh)

     @NEETzsche @sundowner I'm not sure your skills are what they need? It's mostly mindless IT phone support but I plan on doing it for a couple of years at most. I wanna get a master's in library science.
