News@lemmy.world•Americans fear they can't pay back their debts, credit cards
2·2 years agoI’m sorry to hear that and i hope it gets better for you and your wife. It’s not easy hitting those deductibles when one or both of you aren’t able to work.

311·2 years agoFacts. I had a major health issue essentially overnight, no long term disability but decent health insurance. Maxed out my deductible 2 consecutive years, was unable to work for 10 months. Still in medical debt with no savings almost 3 years later because of this setback. Hoping to get the debt paid off in the next year and start saving up again.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Spotify Wrapped 2023 is out, what's your top artist and top song for the year?
1·2 years agoKing Gizz was number 1 on my list this year too. Honestly, surprised how many I’m seeing in this thread lol
Weed mostly just gives me anxiety since I hit 30. I used to be a daily smoker in my teens and twenties.
Is “slaps” still popular though? I remember that from around 2010 and have not heard it recently.
Those are the best weekends. Do whatever you want until 1 hour before your wife gets home and then rapidly clean everything so it looks like you were productive.
😬 I moved from a restaurant job to an office and live on Excel now. I have probably not used it for 10 years before this. I’m beginner level for sure. Any suggestions on how to improve quickly?
Some people in my office have their work email synced to their phones. They also take home their laptops most weekends to “catch up”, “don’t fall behind”, or “just in case any emergencies”.
They are not in leadership positions and we operate Monday thru Friday. Why???
My wife and I have an Australian shepard named Olive. We’ve already committed to getting a mini and naming it caper
Wild, I cannot imagine school showing that

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Those of you who share a name with a celebrity, how do you deal with it?
6·3 years agoI have a pretty uncommon name and happen to share it with a local news reporter/host. I don’t ever watch the local news so I rarely think about it.
At least a few times a year someone I don’t know will bring it up. Mostly it’s if I have an appointment or made reservations. I’ll check in and they’ll have a disappointed look and say they expected someone else.
Rant:
I had a pretty intense acid trip once and came to the conclusion that nothing matters, there is no meaning to life, there is only an illusion of free will, and most likely our existence and personal experiences in life will be completely forgotten within 3 generations (almost like we never existed to begin with). I was super duper depressed after that for several months.
It eventually gave me a different outlook on life though. If it’s only temporary and there is no meaning, I can create my own meaning and enjoyment in life. Live in the moment, do what you want, and create as much meaning and enjoyment for yourself as you can while you have the opportunity. Don’t worry about what others might think because eventually their existence is going to be forgotten as well.
The act of dying might suck, but being dead and not existing seems very serene. Sometimes things just sort of end.




That’s not what happened
