With all the craziness of 2020 I found myself riding the roller coaster of emotions. I have said things here out of anger and sometimes also to stir the pot. I feel like my soul is under siege. I am actively working on this. Anyone else have this happen?

why is the default anger?

It wasn’t. My initial emotions were empathy and humility. As time has progressed, the toxicity of some of the people here changed that.

sorry! not being judgemental at all. just trying to figure out what exactly was said or the overarching themes. or maybe an example of where you stirred the pot. so something has really struck a chord, is the the social unrest, the talks of layoff...

I mean some of the threads are pretty lighthearted here so I was just curious.

About to get about $10k from freelance. I have a full time job so my bills are already covered. Unsure how to split the $10k - got about $3k on credit cards to pay off, but no other debt. Should I throw the rest into savings? Buy some more stock (have a few $100 invested already)? Could do a bit of each of course but as I split it up it feels like less and less and like I'm not going to see substantial growth either way.

My sister and I have recently both come to the realization that our parents guilt us into spending time with them or visiting them and the guilt causes us both to shut down.

We’ve both noticed this shift in our relationship with our parents after graduating from college and starting our own adult lives. Continued
