Pedes, I am bawling right now. I wanted nothing but happiness for the girl, even after we broke up. She had so much to live for. Even though I know we wouldn’t have lasted, I still wanted her to achieve her dreams.
I know suicides are complicated and have tons of contributing factors, but I know she was under a lot of stress because of her graduate studies. I know she was cooped up home alone because of the lock downs.
I have no proof, but these fucking lock downs can’t have helped in the least.
Pedes, please, this is a trying time in America. Many millions are in the pressure cooker. A phone call, an invitation to walk mask free in the park might just save a life. Check on your loved ones. Check on your co workers.
Sorry, pede... Be strong
Edit -- very good advice to call the people you care about, especially if you haven't spoken in a while... You might not even realize how badly they needed that call
I know personally I have gotten absolutely stir crazy with this work from home stuff.
The one thing I realized was that interaction with my co workers was a big part of my mental health. I actively need those interactions to be the pressure relief.
What is a pede?
It’s a brik with a cote fren.
Ummm I'm not familiar with any of that.
Pede is abbreviation of Centipede. It’s a from a “song” that sampled a voiceover from a nature documentary. Something about the centipede having two hollow fangs, and being a nimble navigator.
