The country next to mine keeps threatening to invade.

[–] superkret@feddit.org 4 points 4 months ago

That's traditionally a third world problem.

If it's any consolation, the last time they invaded, we burned down their White House. We could do it again, if necessary :)

You really do have my sympathy

[–] toadjones79@lemm.ee 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm sorry we have become the burden the world has to deal with right now.

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Keeping ducks out of my pool.

Also there's a certain fork my partner hates using but refuses to get rid of.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I love ducks so I'd be no use to you. I'd be encouraging them to come back more

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 6 points 4 months ago (2 children)

They shit so much, otherwise I'd be fine with them.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 4 points 4 months ago

Ahhhhh good point...

Our Senior sysadmin is on vacation, and on Wednesday, our licenses for both our email filtering system and our firewall run out.
I was tasked with getting the replacement systems set up, but due to miscommunication and other issues, I didn't have enough time for a proper test run.
So we're going to flip the switch and hope we are still able to log in and receive mail afterwards.
Cause if we aren't, we're forced to pay 30k € for a license renewal after already purchasing the replacements.

This has lead to a resurgence of my ADHD symptoms, and I wasn't able to wind down all weekend.
I've been having a constant fight-or-flight reflex for the past 3 days, but there's nothing to fight or flee from.

That's stressful mate... I have anxiety so I can relate to what it's like to have your body think you're being chased by a bear. Reach out to us of you need to vent

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Yes please reach out, someone's stupidity is always falling on people who couldn't have prevented it and has to fix it

Instead of treating my intense joint pain, I just got prescribed an app with streching exercises. Thanks for nothing.

[–] peaches@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

What do you suspect could be the problem? How are your stress levels? How is your microbiome? Do you sleep well? Do you eat well?

[–] LouNeko@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Injury Related, Bad, Bad, No, No.

I have so many games but can't decide what to play so I am instead not playing anything and just scrolling Lemmy. 😮‍💨

My father has gone against my grandparents wishes and isn't sharing the inheritance with his children.

I have to go to the other bunnings 15 mins away as opposed to the one 5 mins away to pick up some panels for shelving

Battling a gaming addiction and accompanying sleep deprivation.

First world country becoming a third world country. USA.

Have to wait a few days after shaving before I can safely wax my legs. Really hate the feeling of the little hair follicles rubbing against my pants before I rip them out.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 2 points 4 months ago

Have you tried this website called Lemmy? It's pretty good

[–] feddup@feddit.uk 2 points 4 months ago

I can't build more Lego sets because I've run out of space to put them when they're done. Waiting on getting more shelving.
