My knee. I injured it falling off the practice dog sled buggy I borrowed from my neighbour about 3 months ago and every so often it feels like it needs to be cracked or something. It's annoying.

I'm all for those sites that help locate jobs for their members, but I'm getting tired when certain jobs they have shown on the site are behing a pay wall, not just certain jobs but there was some really good work experience choices I REALLY wanted to do, but it was behing the 'pro' membership and the membership is like £20 a month...Which I just find crazy.
And now I'm sad, because the four things I found on this site, I can only apply for one - as the other stuff is not assesible.

I'm just a ghost.
Lately, I’ve been feeling completely drained. Yesterday was especially rough. I had to take my dad to an eye appointment, and right after that, I ended up taking him to the ER because of recent falls he’s had. We were there for seven hours. They did scans, and thankfully, the results showed no internal bleeding or severe damage.
Even with that relief, the whole day left me frustrated and exhausted. While waiting, he kept asking the same questions over and over, and I was already running on empty. The hospital staff weren’t much help either. I asked a simple question about discharge papers and got brushed off. By the time we were finally released, I felt completely worn out.
The hardest part is that when I try to talk about how much this is taking out of me, I don’t feel heard. I try to open up, but instead of support, I often get told things like “just be patient” or “keep praying, it will work out.” I know people mean well, but it doesn’t change the fact that I’m overwhelmed and trying to manage more than I can handle.
I guess I just needed a place to let this out. It feels like whenever I try to speak up in real life, I get shut down, and that only makes me want to stay quiet. I know I can’t keep doing this alone, but right now it feels like I have no choice.

I came back from my uncles yesterday, and wanted to order chinese from the local one, not even two minutes away; but wanted to go on foot beforehand to check it's actually open or it was closed for Bank Holiday Monday.
When I got there, I had the sadden surprise to see that the chinese shop is no more, and instead a damn cafe has taken it's place???
It has been a few since I've visited again, but I was so upset about this. They were the only local one for milesssss, and they even made bubble tea, waffles, and the best food and I am so sad.
I went there once for my birthday, and they even gave me a cupcake.
Welp, guess I won't be eating chinese for a very long time. I don't like trying to order from ones I've never tried from so I guess that's something I'll stop eating (I rarely ate Chinese to begin with..) gosh why does all the good places go? There's already a cafe in that street!

Have you tried asking people directly for help? You would think venting would be enough of a hint, but sometimes you have to spell things out for people. If you haven't already, you should ask for help with specific things. Like, "Hey, taking care of my dad is really taking it out of me and I need a break. Can you please drive him to his eye appointment next Tuesday?" or something.
Taking care of others is hard, especially when you have no time to take care of yourself. I really hope things improve for y'all ASAP. Sorry if my suggestion is no help.
Hope Ophelia recovers asap!One of my sister's cats, Ophelia, will be going in for surgery. I hope the operation is a success.
AWESOME!So uh...update on my sister's cat Ophelia: she won't be needing to go in for surgery after all as whatever she swallowed, must've passed and she's doing much better now! Thank god for that!!
I've been feeding these pigeons near where I work, literally outside. I feed them bird seed, and today I've had such a naughty pigeon literally chasing away all the other pigeons from the food and they won't stop 
Tried telling the bully pigeon off but they just fly off and come back ti chase the others away DX
Hope they don't do that tomorrow. Its calmed down a bit since a couple and their dog ate sitting outsdlide but most pigeons are gone atm.

Every time I play Rec Room VR there’s like a 50 percent chance I get made fun of or get called the f-slur
Then I immediately leave and forget their username so I can’t report them, of all the times this has happened, not once have I gotten the chance to report them for it
Sometimes it’s the same people when I get back on at a later date

This thread is from 2023 which kind of mentions what some posters above said about the site dying and being at the end.

It's a mixture from what I can gather.
From the controversy of members feeling silenced and actions they don't agree with. There being an air of hostility from not one particular group. New Horizon releasing during the pandemic where everyone burned themselves on it too fast. That the game for some reason was released incomplete and we had to wait a year and a half for it to finally have base game content the other titles had from the start, but Nintendo never told us when and there wasn't any transparency.
It was the biggest divide between those who loved it and those who thought they deserved better (and they did!) This didn't help matters since popularity in the game died off faster than NL and possibly the other titles. Many have a different reason why they moved on whether temporary or indefinitely. I remember when I came back in 2020 there was a lot of hostility between those who loved the game unconditionally and those not on board with how barebone launch was. It's since died down, but that time period was something else.
This all helps with the small activity. But the past few years what's really been keeping the site going for most have been events. So now that events have been on indefinite hiatus a lot of members have been showing up less frequently as well.
