Therapy

Is this a reference from another post today?

I’d take that post over the bear.

But is it what it is?

i think, in fact, it might be!

Once upon a time there was a Little Engine that Could, that said “I think I can, I think I can!” Now it just says “It is what it is, it is what it is…”

And when another train complained, they sealed him in a tunnel, Cask of Amontillado style.

“I think he deserved his punishment, don’t you?”

“What the fuck, Ringo?? NO, he didn’t deserve to be trapped forever just for being kind of a dick!”

Sounds like a form of therapy in and of itself.

And probably cheaper.

I can guarantee it’s not cheaper

Depends on if you’re in America, or a real first world country.

One won’t be cheaper, the other has a high likelihood of being cheaper.

Yeah, restorations aren’t cheap, and the bigger the parts get, the more expensive they get. And it’s not like you can hit up ye olde fireboxes-r-us anymore.

steam equipment is definitely not cheaper than therapy, you get a cracked cylinder? Better hope you have literal tons of iron/steel sitting around, and or something/someone to pay for it, as well as someone to machine it, because none of that exists anymore.

Sharing your enjoyment with others. Work you can take pride in. Preserving history. Sounds pretty great for mental health.

Yeah, I was gonna say that these men DID go to therapy.

That was my thought.

Men got themselves a hobby they enjoy, and gets to share with others. Two amazing things for someones overall mental health. Sounds like someone living the dream.

Yeah, most people today meed therapy because they feel isolated from their work, unappreciated, and are stressed about finances. A hobby where you work towards a common goal with no real world consequences is what most people need in their life right now. ~~~~

Honestly, if you think about it, therapy did kind of replace the support structures formed in tight knit communities…

Who says instead? Seems like people with their heads on right

They dodge depression by doing something that brings joy to their hearts instead of constantly complaining about how depressed they are and how therapy is essential for everyone these days? How dare they!

SO FUCKING WHAT?!?!? DO I NEED TO ASK PERMISSION TO HAVE A FUCKING HOBBY, YOUR MAJESTY??? JESUS CHRIST!!! (smashing noises and incoherent yelling from garage)

Sounds like somebody needs to go restore a train…

Men will literally pay someone to have a conversation about their feelings instead of restoring a train.

yeah what the fuck, go restore a train, it’s preservation and gives something for your local community to enjoy!
