Re: Video games!
@Serxphic the best PC games for me are Civ 5, Civ 6, HOI4, Cities Skylines, Surviving Mars, World of Warships, War on the Sea, Enlisted, Napoleon Total War, and War Thunder. All solid ones. Plus Frostpunk.

im good. just watched the new how to train your dragon film and it was really good.
im debating whether to go watch it or not!toffuna101 wrote: »shannon_164 wrote: »you’re not being a pain @eylah !!! we all care about you
thankyou @shannon_164 i just feel like im bothering you all bc im feeling shit on a daily
youre not bothering me, dont worry about it. hopefully talking will make your day be slightly better @eylah
talking abt how i feel does help
you should watch it if youre able to go, odeon does saver monday where if you sign up for odeon extras you get to save money on tickets. odeon extras is completely free by the way, you just have to pay for the tickets and optionally the food. so if youre available next monday you could go and see it there in the odeon. thats why i went today and coincidentally that film released today so it was good for the carer and i since we were one of the first ones to watch it. im glad to hear that talking how you feel does help.

alternatively, you could just wait until the film is available for streaming/to rent/to buy online.

About that car @DonnerKebab it's not dented or anything it's just the design of it.

The Vietnam and Cambodia episode was the best for me. I think you can get grand tour scenes on youtube if you can't get prime.
yeah, awesome stuff. It was always that trio that made top gear what it was.
@DonnerKebab all sounds cool. It was just clarkson who got sacked.
Trigger warning mentions of violence
he punched producer in the face
Great trio though definitely. Are you into cars that much? Seems like you are.
Re: Weekend Riddles and Puzzles Corner!
Another Monday, another reveal of the answers! As a lot of you said the answers are:
1) Cornerstone - because the word stone is shaped into a corner
2) Forever Tuesday - because there are 4 of the words "Ever" and Tuesday
3) Man overboard - because the word "Man" is on top of the word "Bored"
Stay tuned for Friday when @Sian321 will hit us with the next round of riddles!!

Re: Anybody want to vent or chat about anything? (Triggering stuff edition)
@DonnerKebab yeah
My black dog - a lady on there screamed asking for my weight etc and called me anorexic
Kelly’s heroes - they telling me to lie to my doctor 😂
Samaritans - they telling me I have a medical condition on why I can’t eat - plus they insult me all the time when I talk about how I feel to them
Beat - went onto beat they said they aren’t a listening services…please make that make sense 🫠
Calm - they telling me can’t speak to them unless have active suicide plans
🥸 like give me a straight answer people
hey @River - i get what you’re saying about beat though they are an action focussed helpline as opposed to a listening service but they have online support groups too, some are specific to an eating disorder eg anorexia, but there are also support groups for eating disorders in general (you don’t require a diagnosis for either). in case it helps, i have been getting support from first steps ed - they have been absolutely amazing! i’m using their befriending service specifically, you have the option of phone or email, i picked email so a girl emails me twice a week and honestly, she has been so so supportive - you have 6 months of support from them too!
