There’s a YouTuber named Memoria Matters who has an inside joke that she’s trying to popularize the idiom “too many dogs on the dance floor”. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t have any particular meaning, however. It came up quite a few times during her Alien: Isolation let’s play, however.

It was Zero Cool. Definitely Zero Cool.

Your post isn’t asking a question, it’s pushing an agenda. Really doesn’t seem in the spirit of this community to me.

This really isn’t the right community for this post.

Does nobody remember Bearshare?

Probably goes well with mushrooms.

Erasable pen. Just because I’m contrary.

OP is like the new Don_Dickle, only more so.

what if you don’t have kids?

That’s why I said “at least a little bit related to what you’re looking for” rather than “exactly what you want.” The “Good Enough Parenting” thing is more focused on raising kids. Beyond that, I’m not sure I can help.

Winnocott’s term “Good Enough Parenting” may be at least a little bit related to what you’re looking for.

I suppose other options could be along the lines of “read these 30 dense psychology books or get a degree in psychology.”

Unfortunately, I don’t think I have much better answers for you, but I’d be interested to hear a succinct answer to this too.

I’ve been on Lemmy for a pretty long-ass time and have yet to get Nicoled.

Nicole, why won’t you notice me? 🥺👉👈

“Odd but harmless” is my favorite kind of person (or alien) to collide with.

Not always true. Sometimes you major in what you love, graduate, get a job doing cool stuff, (get fucked over by an asshole boss, change companies, kinda hate working there every day, find out through the grapevine the asshole fomer boss had been fired for being an asshole, return to the company you liked working at), well paid the whole time, and continue to love what you do so much you don’t get enough of it at work and do it more every evening and weekend as a hobby.

But then, my experience is a) a bit dated (I graduated college before 2010) and b) most likely atypical.

First off, be careful. Make sure you aren’t putting yourself in danger. Don’t talk to them. Talk to someone who can do something to protect you. HR if it’s a work thing or the police if it rises to that level. If in doubt, err on the side of caution. If something like HR or police aren’t an option, ghost them.

I hesitate to even go on. So let me reiterate. Aggressiveness is the kind of red flag you don’t want to take lightly.

All that said, if none of the above helps; if you’re talking about something other than fear for your personal safety (and again, please don’t let denial blind you here), then: don’t talk about their behavior. Talk about how you feel. Say that you feel nervous/on edge/scared when they behave in whatever way you’re alluding to.

Why do people say more people didn’t vote for Trump than did?

Because more people didn’t vote for Trump than did.

Trump got more of the popular vote in the U.S. in 2024 than any other candidate did, but he still didn’t get 50% of the vote. He got like 49.80% of the popular vote. And that isn’t even considering those who didn’t vote.

Imagine this conversation in the IT department at a large bank:

IT Manager: It’s what?!

Security Engineer: Gone. It’s all gone. Every red cent this bank held in every account has been transferred by malicious actors to anonymous Swiss accounts.

IT Manager: How could we have let this happen?

Security Engineer: The hackers got approval to install PuTTY. There was nothing we could do.

Reality has a well-known liberal bias.
