How's Thursday going? Classes alright? Have you ever seen Worlds Greatest Dad? It's not really a comedy and if feels like only the darkest parts of Patch Adams but it's a good watch. I still think about the speech he gives to the student body near the end.

How ya doing today? Any better?

[-] gammaman2004@piefed.social 1 points 18 hours ago

A bit worse actually but thanks for asking. I had a good cry so that helped a little

[-] lemmydripzdotz456@lemmy.world 1 points 18 hours ago

Crying is good when crying is needed. I'm going to keep checking in for a while.

I don't know what your experience but here's mine: When I start spiralling and bouncing from being unable to handle the ig thing but there's too many small things and I can't evennhandle.a small things because I should be dealing with the big thing but it's too big and I dont know where to start and and and... I type in a notes files on my phone. It's a gratitude journal. It sounds stupid and it feels stupid while I'm doing it. I'll be sitting on the toilet - because that's where I can be alone and peaceful for a few minutes - trying to think of some stupid positive things in my.life so I can write it in my stupid notes file that I am determined to do. It's a very small thing but it gets me out of the spiral for a few minutes and it gets me to search for anything positive. It's not much and it won't fix much but it is a nice break from the breakdown.

I'll see ya tomorrow.

Well this came across the front page. I hope you get more to converse with than just me. What's your favorite form of entertainment?

Ooh, I like comicbooks, movies and standup comedy robin Williams is my idol ๐Ÿ˜Š

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Robin Williams was amazing. He always lightened the mood. I never thought of him as insecure until I saw him on Whose Line is it Anyway. He was so good and didn't know it. Have you seen the SNL guy Marcello Hernandez' special on Netflix? It was really good, he has a great delivery.

I haven't I'll check it out. He inspired me to become an actor. I wanna be like him ๐Ÿ˜Š. I might have seen clips of the special though

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

You're an actor? Well that's cool, what kind of acting have you done or plan to do?

[-] gammaman2004@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago

I'm in the acting program at my college. I wanna be a voice actor. I'm kinna modeling my career off actors like Williams, Carrey and VA like Alan Tudyk

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

So, that sounds like a blast. Are you taking improv classes too? Both Williams and Carrey are amazing at improv.

[-] gammaman2004@piefed.social 0 points 1 day ago

Not yet. I'm gonna go to second. City which was attended by Martin Short and John Candy

I'm familiar, I'm glad you're going with one of the best. Are you in Canada then? I'm more familiar with the Chicago one. I took classes in Chicago as kind of way to get better at public speaking. It was very therapeutic.

I'm going to the Toronto one ya. Not till I graduate tho. I wanna try and learn improv and standup

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

I don't know anything about the stand up stuff. But for improv, I wasn't that great at it, but it was so much fun. I hope you follow through with it.

[-] lemmydripzdotz456@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I would but I'm about to go to bed after finally getting the kids down. Good luck, friendo.
