I deliberately use the print as image feature if I don’t want someone to be able to select text or search the document (like if I’m sending something with sensitive info as an attachment to an email). Most of the time, I have that option disabled so the document can be searchable and text can be copied from it.

It’s difficult, man. It will probably make you happier if you could just forget about it, but brains don’t work that way. Plus some people just seem to be way better at it than others.
A mildly traumatic thing happened in my workplace. I have plenty of functional days, but other days things return to my brain without my inviting them and it makes it more difficult to function. Sometimes I get transported back into time like I’m there.
One thing I read about is the concept of mental “time traveling”. When we remember these things, it’s like we are literally back in that very moment. But that is not what is happening right at this very moment. You are “safe”. You are not back in time being harmed right now.
Is it wise to not trust her anymore if she has proven herself to be untrustworthy? Absolutely.
But in order to free yourself better, you have to first notice that you are time traveling. Then look at things in your environment. Not her, but try to take in all of the sensory input around you. Remind yourself that you are here, not there. Recognize that the only time that exists is right now. Even one second in the past no longer exists and even one second in the future doesn’t exist yet. Work with what is around you now.
Idk if that is at all helpful, just something that I have read about lately. Way fucking easier said than done because I still struggle.
Wishing you well.
I thought this was a Mickey7 post until I read the username.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What is the optimal handle to chain length for a flail?English
8·11 days agoThis essentially answers my question of how in the world were flails like in the OP’s question a thing? Answer: they probably never were
Even child me was confused at how you could use such a weapon without injuring yourself.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•It always makes news when the "Doomsday Clock" is moved by a second or minute. What would actually happen if it got to 00:00English
8·14 days agoOP, the clock is created and moved my humans. Its not actually something that counts down on its own.
Man, we need a shitty tattoos community.
When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large.
And now that I’m grown, I eat five dozen eggs so I’m roughly the size of a barge.
Is this a real image or an AI image? Granny got that drip.
You know what I’m going to say something different and I hope it’s not too inappropriate.
The other commenters have done well so far. But have you considered using some of your money for therapy? I see you said you’re on antidepressants, but I wasn’t sure if you were already in therapy or not.
I don’t mean this as a cop out answer and I don’t mean that they will directly help you with your finances. But it might be a good idea to talk to someone about the “nothing matters because the world is going to shit” mentality. Even if there is merit to what you say, it isn’t exactly helping you feel happy or satisfied with your life. If you can learn to cope with this particular thought, you might find the rest falling into place a little easier.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•In most cases the simplest explanation is the correct oneEnglish
1·19 days agoYeah, one of my siblings has always been a cocky asshole his whole life for reasons unknown to me. My other two siblings and I obviously have our own issues, but I wouldn’t call any of us assholes. We all grew up in the same environment so it’s odd to me.

1·19 days agoBahaha. Ok I’m ngl this is why I haven’t gotten it either. Sometimes I decide I want to get it anyway “just in case”, but then I get lazy about it. 🙃

Uplifting News@lemmy.world•mRNA cancer vaccine shows protection at 5-year follow-up, Moderna and Merck sayEnglish
8·19 days agoCan you not get the HPV vaccine as a guy? Is it like not allowed in some areas? In my area, men, women, children, etc all can get it unless you’re close to retirement age.
Men can get HPV-associated penile cancers, although they are obviously much less common than cervical cancer. Still…you don’t want to lose your dick to dick cancer. Had a case somewhat recently at work with this scenario.
And besides penile cancer risk, the vaccine would help prevent it in their female partners. Or it can help prevent anal cancer in your male (or female) partners.
Idk it just seems like a win-win for everyone to get it.

2·23 days agoReally don’t need something to make me more depressed, thanks.
Wow! Do you have sex? Other forms of physical touch? I never knew two people who don’t enjoy kissing could find each other.
I did twice in life. It was very wet and tasted like spit. Confusing why it’s pleasant to others lol.



Right…the idea isn’t to make it foolproof, it’s just to make a barrier. People generally go for easier targets over ones with a small barrier. If you have two bikes next to each other in public, one with a bike lock and one with no lock at all, the casual thief is way more likely to steal the one without a lock. Bike locks can easily be broken, but they serve as a deterrent.
