She sounds awesome. Do you know if she’s seeing anyone, in like a serious way?

Maybe the real lesson is that a mangled hand actively gushing blood isn’t really a great analogy for depression.
If the comic suggested that he sought help in the past and it wasn’t working, it would be a much better analogy. Unfortunately, we only know what’s actually shown.
The victim isn’t at fault for being depressed, or having a mangled hand, or whatever analogy we want to use. However, if they go out with friends and expect them to take the problem more seriously than they, themselves, are taking it, then they have some measure of fault for imposing their problem on the friend. If they are seeking treatment that just isn’t working, or they are unable to get proper treatment for other reasons, that’s a different story and I’ll have a lot more sympathy.
It all boils down to not expecting someone to take your problem seriously for long if you are not taking it seriously yourself.
The others would probably take his problem a lot more seriously if he had at least tried to get it fixed. If you are going to walk around with a mangled blood gushing hand for a prolonged period of time, without seeking help, then you should probably stop whining about it, because I can’t do anything for you. I can’t force you to go to a doctor.
The metaphor would work a lot better if one of the people he’s talking to was a doctor that ignored the problem with his hand.
Dude should maybe consider seeing a doctor about his “hand”.
I like it, but not enough stuff uses it yet to be a true game changer. I still have to keep multiples of different types of cables to charge everything.
You’re thinking of Google, not Microsoft.
About 15 minutes, this morning in Wilmington, NC. In previous elections here, I’ve walked in and voted immediately, with no line
Quack
Sunk cost fallacy maybe?
Mostly the “shopping” part.

This called parthenogenesis, and is a main plot line in the book Seveneves…
I’d go back 9 months prior to June 14th, 1946 and yell “Wait! For the love of God, use a condom!”
I don’t want a normal relationship with my Trump loving neighbor. He and his racist wife can go fuck themselves. Their signs and banners told me who they are. I’m choosing to listen
You don’t. Language evolves. At this point, I’m more annoyed by the people calling it out and complaining about it that I am about seeing it in headlines.
I miss UIs having lines and clear separations between elements. I loath this new flat style that everything has to have now, where you can’t tell when one thing stops and another starts.
