Any CompTIA A+ resources?

Reply in thread

I second the recommendation for Professor Messer. I went through his videos when I was prepping for the A+ exam last year. An amazing resource all for free. If you're moving forward to get Network+ and Security+ too, Messer has a whole series of videos for those as well.

For me, it's very helpful in the ways it prevents me from oversleeping. I have it set to that in order to turn off my alarm, I have to go scan the barcode on my mouthwash in my bathroom, thus forcing me out of bed. The sleep tracking features are neat too and will hopefully wake you up when you're out of deep sleep so you're less groggy in the morning.

What do shutdowns and meltdowns actually look like?

Growing up, meltdowns for me were all out tantrums. Screaming, crying, tearing up the place. I remember it being described as a tasmanian devil came through the place. Now that I'm in my 20s, I rarely have meltdowns, but they have happened. Mostly due to too much stimulation of my emotions, I just lose control of them. At this point in my life, it's mainly attached to romantic situations because they are probably the most alien and difficult situations for me to navigate. I would say that there is definitely an element of depression/anxiety included in them, however.

Shutdowns though... I'm not sure to be honest. There are days or even weeks where sometimes I'm just lost for motivation and I don't want to interact with anyone. I'd rather be alone. But I'm not sure if that's more of a bout of depression than a shutdown to be honest.

Guardians of the Galaxy 3 was Christian propaganda

Reply in thread

I agree. The way I see it, the movie is more focused on having their characters accepting their pasts, embracing the family they have made, and charting their futures based on their desires. Yes it plays with tropes but in no way is it Christian propaganda. If it were Christian propaganda, then Rocket would've never turned away from the High Evolutionary. Adam even goes through his own change from being the Warlock of the Sovereign to being a Guardian. It's a wonderful story I believe and a great send off for this iteration of the team.
