Things You Are Stoked On But Not Stoked On

[theSketchLord]

I recently got myself out of a pretty toxic job which was heavily weighing on my mental and physical health which is good but now im unemployed and gotta start making some moves before i spend all my savings just to survive

I've left a few jobs like this (mainly in sales based roles), leaving is always the better option.
Even when it was tough my partner always said it was better than me coming home pissed off and depressed all the time.


I sorted my xmas weed but it's left me a tad financially fucked til xmas eve.

My ex has been making overtures. She’s pretty self involved and the logistical barriers to anything working are higher than ever. Might arrange a rendezvous over the holidays, though.

This guy I don’t get on with, he’s kind of reviled as a kook in Brisbane, well he went round to the bro’s place and I guess the bro don’t get on with him either cause he’s gotten drunk and hit the bro up for a tattoo and the bro’s drawn a fucken swastika on him

I’m pissing myself here but I dunno maybe too far?

Where about on him is it?

There used to be a bikie run tattoo joint in Adelaide and some guy went in for a tattoo and apparently there were a few subliminal swastikas in it. 

[matty_c]

Man I think it’s on his ring finger hey, but that doesn’t really make sense to me unless it was a subliminal one, like you’d see it and say stop?
It’s a bit late here but I’ll call him in the morning and get the full story

Been so anxious about getting finger printed cuz I was worried my new job would find something even though I have no criminal record but still anxious as hell. Got fingerprinted and I just got an email saying its all good and I can start my new job tomorrow. I feel so much better now

Congrats on the new job! Imagine the anxiety level from a lie detector test. Would blow up the machine or pass out in the seat

I've been through the lie detector for a Federal clearance.  It's crazy.  My mind was just racing the whole time.  Questions like, "Have you ever done this?" "Have you ever seen this?"  I was 26-27 when I took it.  I was never that crazy, but growing up skating you see a lot of things normal people don't.  I had to constantly go through my mental roll a dex and decide what to cop to.

Cheese. I love cheese, but I know it'll make me fat. I have a book on cheeses and love to sample different ones.

Recently been dipping into some fresh Red Leicester that is simply divine.

Everything in moderation; except sometimes moderation, my friend.

Having street sessions on the 26th and 27th of December in Quebec is a rarity, so I'm stoked for that.

Only thing is I couldn't skate for shit.

[Easy Slider]

Two days ago I was skating a schoolyard and a kid with his dad showed up, the dad on a penny board (he knew how to push tho) and the kid with a christmas complete and full set of pads. I guess it was his first session. I just so happened to be warmed up and ready to try a line I had been trying for a few days, including an ollie up a concrete ramp, a noseslide on a small ledge, a flatground kickflip and a 50/50 on another small ledge. Got it first try (altho not perfectly stylish but rolled away from all tricks) and the kid and the dad were both in awe, me stoked.

Wanted to do the line a bit cleaner and obviously ate shit on the ledge, cutting my hands on the concrete and bleeding. Kid and dad still watching, dad probably saying to kid: "see that's why you got the pads, son". Not stoked, packed my stuff and left.

Alright, Pals...I need some advice.

I had to leave my apartment recently. One of my roommates (my friend's girlfriend) did not get along with me, and I fear for her safety as well as my own. Without getting too into the details, it is not a good place for me physically and mentally.

Finding a subletter or people to release the apartment has been tough and I feel as though my roommates are taking their time to fill the room/the whole apartment. I'm living with my girlfriend whilst paying rent at my old place.

Can anyone here offer advice on terminating the lease? Honestly, anything helps.

[EdLawndale]

You're paying for an apt you are not living in? And what do you mean you "fear" for her safety and your own? Can you not control your temper sufficiently?

She's not well and her boyfriend said she's gotten in these fits where he fears she's going to hurt herself.

2020 is over

Today my brother shut off my heat.

Today my stepmother's father died.

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow.

[Dr-Feelgood]

me and my girl decided to start the new year with a 3 day juice cleanse, never done one before but figured it couldnt hurt, drank and ate so much junk over the holidays, will be good to flush out the system. On day 2 now, getting through it and feeling good about starting the year fresh but god damn i cant wait for a proper meal

[burtreynolds.jpeg]

I see. Thanks for clarifying. Sorry you are in this position.

It sounds like you are in communication with her bf/your friend. What does he say about finding another tenant to take your place? Who is the landlord? Maybe tell your friend/her bf that if you and he are unable to find someone to fill this room before February 1, you are going to contact the landlord/building manager and see what you can do to personally to get out of this uncomfortable situation.

Sadly, I think if she has a total meltdown, the cops come, etc., you probably will have a better case for breaking the lease. Not saying you should instigate that, obviously, just that may be a side effect of that unfortunate situation.

Also, when I was dealing with a loco neighbor and doing a lot of internet research to find out my rights, I remember seeing that, at least in the state of CA, a domestic violence situation automatically invalidated a year-long lease, i.e. there was no way the landlord could try to hold a domestic violence victim in their lease, rightfully so.  Not necessarily your situation and not sure if you are in CA...but it would be beneficial to do an afternoon of internet research on "breaking leases" and "mental health problems, etc."

If you honestly feel your safety is in jeopardy, don't play it down.

The good news is this will be over at some point soon and it will all be behind you. So hang in there.

Thanks yo!
I'll see what happens after my roommates speak with the tenant union. That should be, at the very least, informative of what options we have.

Trying to settle all my debts (taxes, bills, etc.)

And, I think I'm going to owe less taxes than I expected. However, I'm still getting fucked because I work in two states that I don't live in.

I'm all for pitching in, but man, paying non-resident income taxes on top of resident income taxes sucks.

Dating post-marriage is awesome/terrible all at once.

I've met some amazing people and some horrible people. Some days I feel like a million dollars and others like I have no value. Some days I'm glad to be on my own and be free to do as I please, some days I feel pretty miserable that I have to push through everything on my own without a partner.

This has been insane. Quite a few gnarly ups and downs.

I generally feel better off without the ex, but every now and again there is the thought, "What if I had taken her back when I had the chance?" I mean she is a pretty horrid person, but I wouldn't have been with her if there wasn't something good about her.

I think those thoughts will slowly fade out, normal to have those hard days but if she was a horrid person you did the right thing and are on the right path my man. Hopefully things fall into place for you sooner than later

i really believe humans just aren't made to live monogamic or to stay in lifelong relationships. society decides what is deemed normal and healthy which leads to all kinds toxic relationships because people suppress themselves to function how they are supposed to. sure if you have a kid it makes sense to stay together, but most marriages are basically over by the time kids leave the house and already more of a functional relationship. you share the life and goods and responsibilities but you're not about the other person anymore. it's like building a house, once it's done, even if it is flawed, you want to live in it if you build it yourself, saying to yourself "it's not that bad actually, also i can fix this!" even if half of it is covered in mold and shit.

i'm sorry to be this frank, but wishing to be again with a person you describe as horrid just now is a very unhealthy thing to think. you should strive for a good life solo. having a steady partner is cool, but it's also overrated. if you can find happiness and content in staying alone, you've done more good to yourself than many unhappy couples. and then you can go from there to find a partner that has similar strength and build a true synergy instead of mutual dependencies.

stop the active dating thing and just let things happen or focus on how you can improve your life without another person. there is nothing more unsexy than a person that comes off unindependent and devout to the point where you can be an asshole to that person and that person will stay no matter what because their whole selfworth depends on being in a relationship with someone, even a total asshole, and you sound like that devout person rn.

you did the right thing in not taking your horrid ex back.

I did some throw up. I still got it. Then I went to the park after. Rode my aces then my frozen Ventures. I got a few back 80s over the double cones in a line.

There's more scooters than boards. That's not good to see at all. Scooters don't do shit for my brain.

I saw these two kids killing the manny pad.

Then I went to the dispensary and the check out kid compliments my hat. I was like yeah Venture is #1. It's important to buy american product.

He said he switched from Indy to Venture recently. I was like most shalom choice.

He don't slap I don't think because I got no response to the lingo.

Don't scooter. Do slap.

High Speed is worth protecting.

I went for a run today.

After a back and forth with the idiot printers I finally got around to putting together my shitty MF DOOM tribute zine and it looks okay.

I applied for some warehouse job under the impression that it was mostly general labor, like unloading trucks and ect, but instead I'll be assembling what seems like louvers and dampers or something.

Which I prefer that over breaking my back at FedEx but I'm really worried whether or not I'll even be able to make it through their training as I haven't been to school since like age 14 when I originally started working general labor, which means I'm also very terrible at math.

I took the offer since they're willing to train me but I'm pretty nervous about embarrassing myself and exposing my inexperience-ness and dyslexia.

But again, I'm also relieved to find something different than heavy general labor for once, just hope I don't fuck it up.

[Frank]

you can do this man, trust yourself, its gonna be fine!
