No, it just feels like that because you can’t keep it up anymore.

Yup. Like, I know I knew this at one point and can’t remember the details to save my life. I remember doing the deep dive. I remember enjoying it and feeling energized by it. And now I’m standing here word vomiting bs and repeating “I know I looked it up once”

Love it! That’s been on my knitting bucket list for awhile, I love the patterns with them.

That sounds awful. I dunno. I mean, at the heart of it all, on some level you’re allowing him to continue this behavior by going to him each time. If you don’t go, he has to either keep calling until you give in, or if you don’t give in, he can get pouty about it, yell about it, or eventually come and actually find you.

If you stand your ground and refuse, eventually he has to change his behavior. But, getting to that point will be very uncomfortable. So the question is, how much do you want things to change? Are you willing to go through that discomfort to get your needs met?

What does he do if you stay where you’re at and ask what he wants you for?

Not new, but my biggest one is physically placing things I need to remember in the path of my daily routine. Like if I need to remember to bring my laptop to work, I might put my computer mouse in my shoe.

Another one is moving things in stages. If I’m cleaning my living room and something needs to go upstairs, I’ll just leave it on the stairs for the next time I go up. Otherwise I’m likely to get distracted when I get up there and forget to continue cleaning downstairs.

I also try to have multiples of things that I use in multiple rooms or places. Like a small trashcan in all my rooms so I don’t have to go somewhere else to throw it away. It minimizes distractions and helps me stay focused on the current task.

That’s a regional thing I think. I’ve never seen it in the US. But it seems like they are hell bent on obfuscating information wherever possible.

I looked up this article about it after googling the lyrics. Sounds like there was much more backlash after the music video dropped which has now been pulled from some streaming sites.

The bigger controversy was filming at a courthouse famous for lynching and using BLM protest footage in the video.

As a side note, there were babies on that plane in those temperatures for that long!?

That was my thought too, that’s deadly for babies and children. I’m astounded.
