Also, thank you for posting and commenting and making such an exciting community thrive!
What is too much? I post a few comments most mornings or evenings.
Your own metric.
I’m one of those posting 2 dozen comments deep defending the accuracy of a point.
I like talking and creating conversations, but I do think “well, that’s basically a short story” every so often.
Recovering from cancer, no job, no friends, too much time.
Congratulations on the first mark! That’s great to hear.
How much longer in your recovery regimen?
Are you pretty active again?
Thank you so much! I just got news last week that I’m in full remission (although still incurable because myeloma) and my blood tests are “pristine”. Still suffering from extreme post-chemo fatigue, both mental and physical. It is what it is, better than the alternative.
I hope you’re okay.
I am, thank you. My days are slow and gentle, and I take better care of myself now.
I don’t get how people can comment way too much. I barely comment or post anything not just on Lemmy but on every platform.
It’s definitely just time for me.
I sit around chilling out and if I get a message I might as well answer it because who knows, maybe I’ll learn something, or what they’re saying will be interesting
Can’t find work
The long, frantic hours of waiting for someone to respond. Always extremely frustrating.
Best of luck on the job hunt
Slow days at the office, but not slow enough to comfortably get into a game. I go home and do the same thing because I’m too tired to do anything else after pretending to be busy for 8 hours.
Company time.
If you’re paid to do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.
Commendable
I won’t have what I love tainted by employer/customer expectations.
Smoke break 🚬
¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
Those’ll kill you.
Without cigarettes, of course, you will never die.
I’m pretty sure I died in 2008 and just haven’t cooled yet.
If I spend more than 15 minutes, not distracted, with my own thoughts, I get sad.
I’m glad this grab bag of errant thoughts is available for you to wade through!
(╯ರ ~ ರ)╯︵ ┻━┻
I have a bad habit of leaving comments when I want to leave none ever. So comments >0 is too many by my own reckoning. I have the free time because depression. I make these comments because I’ve lost my self control in that respect
I seem to compulsively leave comments as well, I think they help give body to the community.
Its good Lemmy work
That’s a good way to look at it lol, I’m contributing to the Lemmy fluff. Someone will read it and eat 5 seconds of their time, thus contributing to the goal of Lemmy; wasting time
I don’t think I comment way too much, but probably sometimes it’s too much. Those times it’s because online existence is a form of escapism, and sometimes that’s useful escapism that helps me to survive, and sometimes it’s maladaptive escapism. Often it’s both.
I work in a huge building where I frequently have to walk a lot to get to places, so I comment while walking.
Post on company time 😉
I don’t post a lot but I have a lot of free time due to being T-boned on my motorcycle from someone running a red light. My mobility has been seriously restricted since. When I was working full time and posting a lot on Reddit I was training corporate engineering sw. When I wasn’t training I had a lot of time on my hands at work so I’d scroll reddit. I was also traveling a lot so I was away from home and reddit was sort of my travel family
Nice to have a community to be a part of, for sure.
Sorry to hear about the asshole hitting you, I hope physical rehab goes well and you regain maximum mobility allowed.
The Dr said my foot was squished like stepping on a grape and you can’t put the grape back together again. But I’m so thankful to have a foot and leg at all after that so I appreciate what I have not what I don’t have, even though it does get burdensome when pain or lack of movement is high
Slow at work, what else am I gonna do? Work?
