I'm North of Seattle currently and working in a public school district. We're still open but there's a lot of anxiety out there.

Just saw your post saying who you were. How are you doing? We RPGd together some I think. I remember being a little intimidated by your writing I think actually! Though idk, can't really reember. I think for me I'm less impressed with how well I wrote back in the day (cause I didn't really) than I am just amazed at the amount. How did we have the time? Or motivation? haha

And to you as well.

It's allowed, the forum's just dead. A few of us moved over to Iwaku roleplay for a bit but as far as I'm aware no one's really active over there either atm.

Ya know I'd think that a Christian would be more tasked with worrying about the glorification of violence, the language, and all that but.... leftism? Gotta admit that's not what really hit me on the head from it. Not gonna lie though, Zombies are a guilty pleasure of mine. Haven't seen the new episode yet. No spoilers.

Hahaha Biology joke. I don't want to get kicked off the forum..... Or maybe I do. I dunno.

I think aromanticism in particular is just really far from most peoples experience and asexuality, while more people know what it means, almost seems like some sort of pathology. Like if you don't want sex you must be scared or it or made nervous by it somewhere deep down inside. I mean evolution's four F's are fighting, fleeing, feeding, and reproducing right? Knock one of those base instincts out and are you *really* functioning properly. I'm joking of course, but I think it's something like that. Personally I'm not huge on affixing labels to sexuality since I think things can grow and change and that that is valid but eh. I'm not gonna fault anyone for finding an idea that helps them make sense of who they are. Life's too short. And your not the first atheist whose wondered onto this site. All are welcome despite the fact that the boards haven't had a pulse in over two years.

I'm like, really really over work right now. There's always last minute stuff but it's not even like I'm more stressedor busy..... but its nice out and there's only 7 school days left and I'm just kinda like *meh*

Not a scam it turns out! It was actually a pretty odd situation though. The complex is being sold to another individual in about a week but that person wanted to have all the units rented when they took over so they were trying to get the last place rented quick.... They basically signed me on good faith and a look at one of my pay stubs... didn't even do a background check. But then again it makes sense. Their selling the place. I'm only their problem for another couple weeks. I really like the little thing but I am having some doubts about the location. Not the best neighborhood in the little town but not bad. I think it'll be ok. Hopefully I didn't just make some aweful mistake.

Yay Beckeh! I'm signing a lease on a little Duplex today... I'm about 87% sure it's not a scam so here's hoping.

Oh definitely agree. And hey, you can always go back. I'm just saying you're eventually going to have to settle. Plus, I still think you'd be great at occupational therapy or speech therapy. You'd get to work with kids but not as emotionally heavy. Or maybe nutrition if you wanted to work with older people but not be as tied in emotionally. You'll find something.

Yea, service jobs are pretty emotionally heavy. For me, that's what makes it interesting but I'm also able to drop it at the end of the day better than a lot of people. That said, you need to be careful about about being too focused on finding "perfect". I love my job, but there are days when I find myself thinking about doing something else and it's about the same with everything. There needs to be a balance between soul searching and action.

That seems unusual for you.... but maybe fortunate. I feel like ISTJs are probably one of the types most suited to handling the grind of real life. I usually test INFP with INFJ every once in a while. We're just dreamy perpetually dissatisfied idealists.
