Why are you completely silent for much of the time that Jimmy is talking to you? There's no verbal encouragement or acknowledgment and it feels almost like he's talking to himself at times.

@peachesandpoets 15 күн бұрын

@@cjojay Not everybody needs a cheerleader in order to talk. When a host notices a confident speaker and recognises that the speaker's contribution is consistent and valuable, the best thing for the host to do is be quiet. Jimmy didn't say much that needed challenging or a push. He either gave his opinion or gave facts, and never tried to demand that his opinion was fact. People are tainted by news networks being mostly opinion and argument and have forgotten about what journalism (small J) is. And yes, I know that most such people haven't or can't read this far.

As a retired teacher, I really felt our education system fails our people, especially males. There is hardly any emphasis on what makes a healthy human being. As a teacher, I just felt we were churning out sausages. Some would gain skills to be employed in the labour market, others would fail. There is so much more our education system could do to raise well adjusted individuals, and members of society.

@pootytang69 10 күн бұрын

@@banedon8087 It is reductive but I'm not sure it's simplistic to the point of being incorrect - I feel it does pretty accurately sum up how happy someone generally feels. You can have very little, envy even less and feel generally pretty happy so long as your survival isn't in constant ambiguity. Vice versa you can have everything a person could want and still perceive the world as needing to give you more to be satisfied, and live eternally unhappy. Obviously most of what we envy is subconscious, but if we can work out why we're chasing what we're chasing, we might realise we're on a bunch of wild goose chases and everything we actually need is a lot simpler to attain.

Another applicable quote he used in regards to what you said is the Nietzsche one "If you think someone ruined your life, you're right, it was you." In your example it's the perspective that "things aren't as they ought to be" that is harming the individual.

@banedon8087 10 күн бұрын

@@pootytang69 Still too simple. When I look around and see that others - many others - feel the same way as myself and we all started off independently, then it's not just a "me" thing. In addition, these things matter at the core of people. This isn't envy or jealousy, but watching what is happening with the newer generations and seeing them despair, seeing people taking advantage of that and radicalising them against themselves and society. And that's just that start of it. Sometimes the issue isn't the individual.

I'm 43. I recently had an experience with my sons friends popping round. And they were absolutely jaw dropped. I spent the day fixing a car, mechanically then did a bodyshop worthy patch repair to a panel. Came in, and told them to quiet down I need to do some work on my dissertation. The confident one piped up and proclaimed how??? How can you do so much stuff! I replied. I grew up poor. But with a dad. I had to become self sufficient or...metaphorically die. And I guess the hardships I look upon as perceived trauma while growing up. Actually. Make me who I am and are to be celebrated. What a privilege. To not need bank loans. To never need a mechanic or a bodyshop. Never need a builder, a plumber or an electrician. To never need much more than myself. What a gift. Now...many will see this as a pointless comment. I'm sure. It's not about setting up a business having passive income and a ferrari. But. I think it's key to be thankful and celebrate who you are and what you can do. Not be depressed about what you can't. Jimmy touched on being thankful. And that's a rewarding mindset.

My Dad always worked, 3 jobs sometimes, because he had too. I didn’t see much of him as a kid. When I was older (late teens maybe) he mentioned how he feels he missed everything, just off the cuff no real emphasis on it, while we were chatting and cooking. I stopped him and said “Even as a kid I knew why you did it, that you had to, that the reason I had food and a roof was because of you. Thank you for what you did. You didn’t miss my childhood, you made it possible.” I think he let go of years of guilt and tension. I’m sure he wanted to stop and help raise me one on one, but he couldn’t. You aren’t a bad person because you cant.

The presumption there is that people who don't censor things are inherently good. It isn't true. In a world where regardless of who was or wasn't censoring things, the worst atrocities were still able to happen, holding up the past as some ideal is not only dangerous, but extraordinarily disingenuous. If someone's comedy relies on hurting those who are already measurably marginalised in society, then it isn't comedy worth hearing. It isn't original. It isn't revolutionary or brave or unique or special. It's just ugly, petty and negative. Allowing hatespeech to have free reign has also never been a feature of a good or just society. It's really fking easy for people with privilege to make the arguments that men like Carr, Gervais, and even Chappelle are making.

Depression is a real syndrome. We need to take it seriously, absolutely. Is it a “disease,” as defined by the medical community? No. It’s some combination of symptoms observed in patients over a period of weeks by psychiatrists. In one person, the cause may be a thyroid issue. In another person, maybe it’s a lifetime of loneliness. For another, they need to overcome a lifetime sense of powerlessness. For another, they may well need lithium to function. There is a reason why meds don’t work 60% of the time. Depression is not one “disease” any more than abdominal pain is a “disease.” We’ve barely scratched the surface of helping people overcome their misery.

Anxiety is caused by a lot more than things in the future. There is a great deal of anxiety for me if I go to the gym because I am terrified of what other people think of me.

You need to stop being so egotistical. Why would random people working out in a gym, be looking or talking about another random Person ie You? Let it go and be yourself.

@Niki-mp8qe 4 күн бұрын

Don't be, honestly people are too occupied doing their work outs, don't let that stop you, focus on your goals, maybe go when it's more quiet if it gets too much

@Draggonny Күн бұрын

But it is in the future because you said "if I go to the gym" not "when I go to the gym". You're not anxious because people are staring at you and making snarky comments, you're anxious because you think they will. That's the thing about anxiety. Doing the thing usually isn't anywhere near as bad as the fear of doing the thing. Your brain builds it up into the worst possible scenario. This is coming from someone who has anxiety and has had to deal with it for 30 years. You have to do the things that scare you a little bit so you can build up to the things that scare you a lot. My current big scary is my driving test.

@IainAplin Күн бұрын

I had that when I was younger 18-25 ish so much so that I lost my identity because I would never go out then one day I realised no one knew who I was, even myself. That made me regain a personality sorta like going on holiday and no one knowing you.

People aren't thinking about you. They're thinking about themselves. You can misu derstand if you see Their eyes pass you, or even rest on you. But chances are, they don't really register you. And if someone sees you and judges you, so what? They don't know you, and why would their opinion matter? Go to the gym and enjoy your workout! It feels good.

He is so incredibly right about gratitude being the most important virtue. Despite coming from a long line of depressives, it is the fundamental source of my happiness. We are living in an age of wonders, and so few of us realize it. Once you do, you'll never be bored or unhappy (for long, at least).

Having a low tolerance for bs really is a good thing. I spent most of my twenties seriously ill from Crohn's Disease and in my 30's now I have little patience for people, especially those of a similar age or older, who still act and behave like they're in high school with no understanding of life at all. Cut off people dragging you down. It's freeing.

I feel the same, it's the memories that we make that carry us happily through life, not the things that we own. Giving an anonymous gift, going out for dinner, or treating a friend to dinner or a gift, that is worth more to me than most things. If we can cover the necessities in life, and have a little left over for some little treats, then we have "enough". And, when you know that you have "enough", then you can relax and enjoy life more. Forever striving for "MORE" is robbing us of life.

In general, they can both mean “occurring again” or “happening again.” However, there is a difference in how they are typically used. Reoccurring is typically used to simply mean that something is happening again. He is becoming something that happens again.......after a few more times he will be recurring!
