Yeah, people want to learn about the topics that are currently hyped up / in demand from employers 🤷 Just being good in Java/Python/C++ doesn’t really cut it on a resume, you gotta have either a weird specialisation or claim skills in a currently hyped up technology.

More people do it than you might think! I sit in an office of 8, there’s always someone either quietly beatboxing to themselves, doing minute long "uhhhrrmm"s or muttering movie quotes. There’s an understanding that anyone who feels bothered by the stimming can put on their noise cancelling headphones lol

I’m feeling exactly the same, I’m in a CBT Therapy group rn which feels double invalidating because everyone else seems to have the exact opposite problems.

I’m currently working through a book on Inter Familial Systems Therapy and it’s a much better fit - it works by assigning personas to specific problematic thought patterns and talking the issues out with those personas. Way more validating in my opinion, as it’s focused on being empathetic towards them and guiding them in a better direction.

100% Germany, my sister got hit with almost 3k€ for torrenting Young Sheldon 🤦

New Year’s was always my favorite holiday because I loved setting things on fire, but apparently I’m the kind of person now that gets a panic attack from the loud explosions. It sucks man
