The whole situation feels like a textbook slice of maneuvering from powerful men good at performing 'nice guy'. I never followed the Heard-Depp trial closely, although when I saw a few short clips, it felt so familiar in a sickening way...

I've seen the meanest monsters cosplay the sweetest people, and then... they make you look nuts for reacting aggressively. Was anyone else frustrated by these verdicts?

Bit of a weird one to ask about, but I'm going to be in a similar situation of my own (where I feel more like Blake/Amber going up against a covert/communal narcissist). He does work similar to Baldoni's, and I generally get annoyed with people (like him) who seem better at masking their bs.

EDIT: Thanks for the really thoughtful comments! I didn't know what to expect, although I'm not surprised to see the CPTSD community finding nuance and gradation that might get missed. Neither are saints, although it's emotionally validating to know that I'm not alone in seeing elements of their reactions as fairly textbook responses to trauma.

While speculative, the media DOES inform society's perception of what's normalized, fair, just, and okay... so I do believe it's ok to talk about it because — whether it is or isn't fair — the way the world treats powerful people often mirrors the unseen experiences people offstage are having too.

I switched to a flip phone and lost my contacts. Most are saved on my computer, although somewhere between the iPhone and the Samsung, I lost quite a few. When I switched from the Samsung Galaxy A15 (via Wisephone) to a flip phone, the SIM was different.

Techless is tough to work with, so I just let the transfer ride. Is there a way to get my numbers off the SIM from them?

The title about says it.

The suspension's shot. It also needs the AC fixed, it's banged up on the outside from some wear and tear, and it generally is on its way out. I'm not sure if there's someone who'd rather buy a used car (it's light blue!) for a teen or a side hustle, with fixing the suspension themselves... or if that's just not how this world works.

Mileage is ~85k I believe (not in the mood to put on pants:) )

Unfortunately, I was in the city, and I got the sense that my crime was the least of their concerns. Still: I need to report it so that I can get victim support services. Which police station will typically be the most supportive of women?

I've been a menace all morning / afternoon. Thanks to having the emotional regulation capacities of the average Atlantic oyster, I might've acted on an all-consuming destructive rage that wasn't necessarily the most life-engendering mood to vibe-surf.

Is this an AuDHD thing? Or more of like a ...... "you should get that looked at" thing
