Yes.

Dude, you have completely changed your previous comment any points you are now trying to make are null and void.

Dude, I’m not the one saying a racial slur (that has been recognized as such for over a century), isn’t one.

Cry harder.

Edit: love how you completely changed your comment. Doesn’t change the facts.

I’ve never heard my 100y/o grandpa ise racist slurs in my life.

Keep defending your racist grandma.

Yet as another commentor points out that its the opposite

How are you this dense?

It’s never been anything but.

Projection.

No.

Viewing or editing.

If you want to. It might help.

Well, there are several methods:

*Cold turkey: just stop and ride it out. You can do things like chew gum to help deal with the cravings. *Medication: Talk to your doctor *The Patch: follow instructions on box. *Nicotine Gum: use as directed *Vape: not the best method, but works for people.

Not an exhaustive list

Is there a place you could row?

Yeah, I would stop, or at the very least get a professional opinion. And stay away from hobbies that beat the shit out of your hands.

Long distance cycling might not have a crazy mental workout but it’ll wear you out. You could do more challenging hikes, or you might need to replace it with 2 hobbies, I’m just some dude on the Internet.

Take care of your hands.

You know they aren’t tennis players right?

We don’t do that here.

but also ensure that the population keeps growing in order to produce more and more human labor to “pay back the debts” of previous generations, because all money is borrowed from somewhere else…

This seems like an issue with accepting the current economic system as the only system or leading to some neo-feudalism.

We could restructure society and the economy so that the “debts of previous generations” weren’t such a fucking weight.

I don’t know if they’ll retaliate. I would prepare for that, though. Whatever you do, do not give them more ability to contact you. Try to keep records and keep it professional with Ann until you are out of the position. Once you are in the new job, it will be easier to distance yourself from them. And if Ann starts shit after you have started, it will be easier for you to point her out as the instigator.

The situation sucks, and I hope you have a better and easier time going forward. But it sounds like Ned and Ann are predators, and should be outed as such.

Ignore him, warn others about him and Ann. This is problematic behaviour. Especially since they seem to be acting in concert.
