Anything really grinding your gears that you need to get off your chest? Lets talk about it.

My ankle that I rolled in early December hasn’t healed fully yet Almost, but not quite
Omg I can relate. I rolled my ankle once and it was hurting for months and months, turns out I had a hairline break that never healed correctly; now my ankle is permanently slightly crooked.
I rolled mine badly at the end of Feb and it’s still hurting. X-ray didn’t show a fracture but the doc said sometimes they don’t show up right away.
Sorry to be that guy but an xray won’t show much compared to something like an mri. Get a second opinion and have them do something other then an xray.
It was the ER just checking for a break. Entire foot was swollen, couldn’t put any pressure on it, etc.
I’ve moved and never set up a new PCP either. The billing alone has put me off healthcare. I spend about 2 hours a month dealing with a prescription. The ER billing has been crazy too, spent a few hours talking to various billing depts, getting bill weekly for things that were paid for, etc.
I can’t wait for this US system to be replaced.
The limited Jewish support for Palestine in the NDG neighborhood highlights the diversity of opinions within the Jewish community in my experience.
I want to point out that not all Jews support the Israeli government with what’s going on in Palestine right now. I see this sentiment all over the internet and Lemmy.
It’s split down political lines. Right wing Jews are more likely to support the Israeli government and their actions, and left leaning and most centrist Jews are appalled.
Please don’t lump all Jews as being supportive of this horrific situation. That’s how you get society (again) to blanket hate all Jews.
Working from home. I hate it. If I had a family or a social life and a self-disciplined gym regimen, I’d be fine. But I dont. And I work for yanks, so my hours are all shifted to suit them.
I miss having a daily commute I could work a daily exercise into, colleagues I could passively chat to, social events happening around me.
But I dont. There are no other jobs, just yank work. I just wake late, sleep late, consume fast food, and work.
Damn I am having the exact oppisite experice. I hate dealing with the public and everything that comes with working outside of the house, but all the work from home jobs have been scooped up and its been impossible to find a decent one since COVID. Its extremely annoying to me because I don’t want to go back to retail and feel like I am not being given a choice.
I’m sorry, that sucks. As cliche as it sounds, when I was stuck in a similar rut, the biggest positive influence was to try and go outside regularly. Even if it’s just walking through nature for a couple of minutes every other day, it really helped my energy levels and mood.
Stay strong! I hope you find something better.
The banality of daily life as we slip into authoritarianism. None of this matters.
