Sysop
You have been given sysop powers. Use wisely.:)-DïämöńđDïsc1 (talk) 18:28, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Hey thanks. I don't know much of anything about anything so I was just going to use 'em to clean up after vandals and put them in the timeout corner. MyNameIsMudd (talk) 22:46, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

And that is how you deal with trolls
Nice work! Brief note: That's one of the most persistent trolls I've seen.-DïämöńđDïsc1 (talk) 04:28, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Hey thanks guy. Eh, I already know all about him. Some blowhard with a bug up his ass about his "banter" being deleted and being censured from an election in times gone by. Creepy obsession with cheerleaders and high school age girls too. Maybe one day the wires in his head will get uncrossed and he'll stop being such a squealing idiot manchild, but I doubt it. Thanks for the help. MyNameIsMudd (talk) 04:33, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- No problem. He probably forgot to take his meds anyway.-DïämöńđDïsc1 (talk) 04:34, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
A more natural bond I cannot recall
Turns out we got the same thing on our things! Who'da thunk it? Reverend Black Percy (talk) 11:56, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Hey yeah, you're right. It's one of those things that keeps me going in scary times like these. MyNameIsMudd (talk) 17:09, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
You're not alone
I saw the thread you started in the Saloon Bar (mentioning anxiety and whatnot), and — without knowing anything much specific about you at all — I decided to try my best at throwing together a relatively short selection of YouTube videos from one my favorite channels (The School of Life), which I sincerely hope will serve as food for thought, or maybe even inspiration (as they do for me).
Not longer than a few short minutes per video, at their best they manage to pack a tremendous philosophical and emotional punch nonetheless. In no particular order, I present you with:
Understanding yourself and others
- Why You Shouldn't Trust Your Feelings <- (srsly)
- On Being Out of Touch With One's Feelings
- Why Introspection Matters
- The Weakness of Strength <- (try reflecting on your own "fragilities"/"shortcomings" in these terms)
On anxiety in its various forms
- Why We're All So Anxious <- (understanding anxiety intrinsically tempers its dread, if ever so slightly)
- Self Sabotage
- Panic Attacks
- Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO)
- Status Anxiety
Joy without the guilt
- Should We Laugh Or Should We Cry? <- (Go Democritus!)
- The Wisdom of Pessimism <- (So important)
- Why Small Pleasures Are a Big Deal
On self-image and self-esteem
- The Impostor Syndrome
- The Lottery of Life
- Why Nice People Are Scary
- Love And Self-Love
- Overcoming Bad Inner Voices
- The Importance of Self-Pity
- Self Compassion
- Confidence
Some philosophy for life
- Wisdom <- (Don't miss this one)
- Resilience In Hard Times <- (Especially don't miss this one)
- How to Get Angry a Lot <- (A reminder not to drown in bad news)
- How to become a better person
Relationship wisdom (since you mentioned your partner )
- How to Save Love with Pessimism <- (one of the most touching videos on love that I know of)
- Loving and Being Loved
- Pessimism for Lovers <- (if only I had known this in time)
My only hope is that something — anything at all — in the above buffét catches your eye and turns out to be of any use whatsoever. Hang in there, baby. All the best, Reverend Black Percy (talk) 03:41, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
- Oh man you didn't have to go all out of the way like that for my sake. Still, thank you very much for your kindness. You hang in there too okay? MyNameIsMudd (talk) 03:51, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
- I will; pinkie promise! If you want to humor me sometime, give me your two cents on which one(s) you liked the most (and/or the least). All the best, Reverend Black Percy (talk) 13:35, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
