Not just under 30. My husband is disabled and if ACA or VA benefits get cut he will die. Horribly but slowly, in our house where I will have to take care of him until the end. And pray we still have enough of a functioning society to bury him when the time comes. How I am supposed to feel anything other than horror and dread for the future!?

That's horrible! Now I have check my crawlspace and whatnot because you have made me paranoid. Can you cut access holes in the drywall and toss a bug bomb in there like a grenade? Just kidding, I think.

Once upon a time I did stagehand work like this. If you have riggers or personal working over head, you need clear lines of communication open. Someone should have been calling the drop of set prieces, and the ground crew should have been responsible for catching the lowered sections and keeping other crew out of the way. Also, the ground cables should have been pulled first, to protect them from damage as the set comes out.

Nothing about this sounds like it was done correctly! The lead carpender and scenic lead should have been all over this! You have heavy metal parts coming out of the air and no one was even calling it!!?? Probably didn't even have radios. This was 100% preventable.

You have a right to be angry. However the answer to where do you put a millon detained poeple, a labor camp. To replace the migrants we chased out of the country.

I need to put a lock on my chicken coup at this rate.

 

I have what I call the Feeling Things Meter. Meaning that in a certain period of time, about one to three days, I have a set amount of feelings I am allowed to feel. If I exceed the number of feelings and fill up the meter I blank out and get to feel nothing at all. I can feel the Meter filling up, and I know when I am about to exceed it.

This also applies to feelings from movies, shows, games books and music. So I have to carefully plan out my entertainment around life events as best I can.

As you can imagine it becomes incredibly hard to navigate adult life with no feelings. And not just the big feelings but the little ones too. No drive to go out and do the shopping. No satisfaction of completeing a task. No disappointment if I screw something up. Nothing.

No one else in my life has this, or anything close to it. Most people look at me like I'm a crazy person when I try to explain it. I'm always making excuses for not wanting to watch movies or shows with friends, or bailing when a sad song comes on.

Please, I just want to know someone else has this problem. Anyone. How do you cope? Do you even listen to music? Do you have to leave movies halfway through becuase you couldn't take it?

I just want to know I'm not alone.
