Does anyone else get weird chest/heart pain a few days before their period? I don't think I've experienced this before, but apparently it's a symptom of PMS from a quick Google search.

Why do good-looking people usually have good-looking friends? Is this intentional? Also in general most groups of friends look around the same level when it comes to attractiveness, it’s like they gravitate towards each other. Even the people who disagree on this usually look about the same as their friends, or are a 5 in a group of 5-7s (apologies for the crude number rating attractiveness). I notice this in social events too, people congregate this way upon first meeting and it feels like there’s some secret hierarchy. Dumb question but I’m curious about the psychology of this.

In my experience, people who are socially attractive tend to go for each other and do have groups based off of popularity and social dyanmic (instagram, tiktok, this doesn't matter if you are really attractive though). This is needed for clubbing as socially deemed attractiveness is essential for getting into. It's not uncommon to see on reality competitive shows that attractive people will say they are only friends with attractive people for parties and clubbing.

No chest pains, but my heart rate always goes up 10BPM and returns to normal after the bleeding stops. I get fatigued easily too.


Question:
My sister and I decided to move in together last summer to save on rent but she's gotten really annoying lately and I'm wondering if I'm being unreasonable….
I enjoy cooking and do meal preps to save money, eat healthy, etc. My sister is the opposite, she ALWAYS wants takeaways, always wants to eat something different, hates leftovers. She works from home and rarely ever cooks for herself, but always wants to eat whatever I've cooked. Today she saw me doing my meal prep and snapped at me because I didn't share any food with her. She apparently saw all the meat I thawed in the fridge and "anticipated" that I'd be making food for both of us. When I reminded her that she's literally home all day and even if she's working, she has the opportunity to make her own meals, she got angry and called me selfish. Am I really being mean here? Because I don't understand why she's flipping out.

Unless you're leaving some important detail out about how food is purchased or shared normally, no you're not being mean at all. she's being the weird one. time to have a discussion about how food is purchased and shared and that you cooking isn't free labor she's entitled to.

No you’re not being mean and she isn’t entitled to your food. If she wants you to cook for her (and you agree to it) she should compensate you by paying for her share and cleaning the dishes and kitchen afterwards.

I purchased something on eBay and the seller wouldn't respond or send the item out on the protective shipping date, I contacted eBay to cancel and got a refund and purchased it on another site but the seller ended up sending the item out after I received my refund.

Any women in here who graduated (or are still in college/university) Computer Science/Engineering ? Tell me how's the experience and in what country. I'm planning on getting a degree in that, since I'm a big computer geek. I also self study programming using books I bought from a library, they're really helpful and I love 'em. After that, I have in mind making quite a "pocket-sized" video game company, maybe made of 5-10 people, and making flash-newgrounds-type of games, nothing too complex at the beginning. So that takes me to question number 2, anybody has experience with working for a video game company and/or making/developing simple video games?(use the catalog, there is a thread for exactly this)

I think it generally depends on your culture, if you come from the West, I think your response was reasonable. However, if you are from a more conservative country, I'd say it would be absolutely expected to share your food, or at least offer.

This is true mainly with younger people. It just boils down to common interests and background, and I think that the factors that play into attractiveness tend to qualify as common interests. The most attractive people didn't win the "being good looking" lottery most of the time, they place a lot of value into their attractiveness, trying to look as good as possible. So they hang out with other people who place value into their attractiveness. People mostly want to hang out with people who are similar to themselves, with shared traits and similar social dynamics.

Nonnas should I be worried? For the last 2 months I have been getting sick every 10 days, some times even every week. I only had a fever twice, every other time it's just body aches, muscle pain, extreme fatigue, heaviness in my arms/legs, chills and a sore throat. I've had issues with my tonsils but they don't look inflamed. The lymph nodes in my neck have been swollen for months, or maybe that's the tonsils. I tested negative for covid, flu, rsv multiple times. I have issues with my thyroid (it's been underactive and overactive in the last 2 years) but I take medication for it every day and my labs are within normal ranges, aside from elevated calcium and pth. My endo isn't concerned though. My period is also very irregular but that's been going on ever since my thyroid started acting up. I also have gastro issues but I don't think it's related. I eat a normal, balanced diet with plenty of fruit and veg. I take vitamin d and zinc. I tried magnesium and selenium too. I've never been sick like this in my life. It's seriously impacting my productivity and mental health. I feel crazy, my doctor isn't taking me seriously and only told me to take vitamin c.

Skinny is also ok as long as she has tits and ass, long hair is also super important and always has been unless you're alt, but even if you're alt men will just call you a lesbian anyway. The most popular look for a typical "hot babe" from my country is lip filler, tan, heavy eye makeup, long straight hair can be brown, black, blonde doesn't matter. And instagram fitness influencer body or skinny hourglass who photoshops. Tiny plastic surgery Barbie nose is also a plus.

How do you stop being scared of stupid things and/or fix your startle response? A squirrel got into my house in the middle of the night and I was so scared I screamed and ran away to get my dad. I don’t know why I’m like this, my dad kept screaming at me and calling me a moron for being scared of the squirrel who was running around our house at that point. I somewhat think it’s due to my very high startle response, like I sorta spaz out normally when someone taps me on the shoulder or when someone knocks on my door out of nowhere. And I’ve been like this since I was a toddler/child. How do you get past it? I’m tired of feeling like a retard and I have no idea what I’d do if I lived alone and had to deal with this myself. I couldn’t even look at the squirrel I was so terrified (I think because it’s a whole can of worms to accept that there are now squirrels in my house or at least an entry point for them to come in here that isn’t the attic).

Nah economics is hilariously bad too and it’s very very ironic because the field is overwhelmingly male dominated. The grown men in my field (most of whom have some kind of Asperger’s) are some of the most petty, “mean girl” people I’ve ever met. Many of them are sexual predators as well but I can say that generally speaking my field is full of sheltered individuals who lack closeness to and common sense regarding the very issues they publish about—which is concerning bc in many cases they’re trying to actually influence public policy. But the bright side is that most papers they write will only be read by people in that niche/research field and no one will really care. Personally I don’t really get the prestige of academia; for me personally I think being an economist in title sounds more prestigious than it is to be a college professor. I will say though that I loved teaching and working with mostly female students (some of the young scrotes these days are porn brained creeps and will try to hit on a teacher). I never thought I would say this but I enjoyed teaching more than the research portion of academia because that’s where the ridiculous politics come in and for anyone who has actually lived a difficult life it’s extremely pretentious and pointless, especially when you consider that no one outside of your niche even cares about the papers unless you’re at a top school.

Samefag but I always thought I would hate teaching bc I’m really shy and don’t like social interaction much but I love trying to make my traditionally “boring” discipline fun for students. I think I’m also a good ambassador for the field bc not many people in it are so enthusiastic about teaching. I think eventually I may go back and try to become a professor just to teach and not really publish if that’s possible.

How do you wash your hair?

I have thin straight hair, italian.
>shampoo only once or give up on shampoo!
I tried, and the results don't work for me. Shampooing twice seems to spread it out better.
>use conditioner
I use it on the ends and wash it out, helps with detangling hair but it gets oily faster so I don't do it every time.
>use conditioner on scalp/don't wash out your conditioner
I'm tempted to try because the skin on my scalp is dry, but I feel like this isn't logical…

I have 3A curls, thick hair, latam(?).
>shampoo once or twice depending on how oily it feels
I alternate the shampoo I use, sometimes I use one for my seborrheic dandruff and then, on another wash day, I use a regular shampoo of who knows what brand because they're sold by the gallon.
>conditioner
I use hair masks instead and leave it for a long time before washing it out, I only apply it from the middle of my hair to the tips, I don't touch the scalp.
>hair oils and hair creams
I use a kerastase cream, it's the pink one, I only apply it like the conditioner, from the middle to the tips, and then I use argan oil that I only apply it to the tips. I do this when my hair is still damp.

Not necessarily that creepy, but when I moved away from my really small hometown to a large city for college in the early 2010s, I couldn't handle the daily street harassment from men and naively thought cutting all my hair off would make it stop. But I soon learned that all it did was make me harassed only slightly less by men and a lot more by women. There would be women who would stop me on the sidewalk to ask for directions (thankfully at the time I wasn't naive enough to humor the men who would try this), who would use it as their opening to hit on me and touch me/invade my personal space. That was when I learned some women can be just as creepy as men and became jaded and cold to any stranger needing help. Then there was also my best friend since childhood who pretended to be a guy who she made me think was stalking me when we were like 13 since this "guy" would call me leaving voicemails and somehow knew my address and me and my family's every move despite never meeting or talking to this guy. Then I finally realized it was her trying out being a man and changing her voice when she trooned out before it became trendy to do so. But I don't really include her along with the first group of creepy women since clearly she's mentally fucked in the head

It was so unhinged and random that I never picked up again but she continued to call my house multiple times per day and it freaked my parents out.

Well, not women… they were teenage girls, but they were creepy, my friend's acquaintances. They were really creepy with girls, one of them pretended she was a boy, and both of them played a game like in that film Cruel Games if I'm not mistaken. Like, they'd make a bet and one of them would try to seduce a girl, and they kept diaries or lists with their "victims". One of them tried to hit on me but I'm not into women and even if I were, she was too cringy. It was mostly just ridiculous but I feel bad for girls that liked them for some reason and were manipulated by them.

Kik, I was going through different groups because I had no friends back then.
At first I was in the group she was at because I embarrassingly used to be into shotacon when I was 20 years old. I joined to get manga recommendations because I didn't want to read porn so I talked to everyone there.
I don't remember exactly why, but we were talking about what we did irl so I made the huge mistake to say I was helping at some preschool because I moved to another place and the owner of the school liked me.
The woman, who was always trying to hit on the guys that were like 18 years old, and who actively ignored me suddenly texted me.
She asked me if I have ever done anything to the children and I was like "um no, woman what the fuck??" And she told me that by that time she was 40 years old, that she was a teacher at a small town school and that one of her students was "her boyfriend".
I proceeded to leave the group, blocked everyone, deleted my kik and stopped liking shotacon, now I despise it and feel disgust whenever I remember ever thinking that it was okay to read those types of stories.

Or they'd be my friend and one day land me with this announcement of their feelings even though neither of us ever showed interest in women before. I always get this knot in my stomach because I associate unrequited feelings (and being stuck seeing them daily afterwards if it happens at work, at school, with a friend etc) with incoming bullshit and harrassment or games but to be fair women have never matched mens energy there ime

Plenty of awkward lingering 'hasn't given up yet' moments but not on mens level.

I have fine dense dark straight/wavy hair from my italian side (kek), this is what I use.
> Cake Beauty The Big Big Deal Thickening Volume Shampoo - every day
> Maui Moisture Lightweight Hydration + Hibiscus Water Conditioner - every OTHER day, I hear the shampoo is good too and am considering switching to that instead of my other one or at least alternating them
> Mielle Mongogo Hydrating Conditioner - twice a week
I use the hydrating deep conditioner twice a week. You probably have low porosity hair so avoid proteins and look for protein free. Make sure you wash your hair with warm/hot water so the conditioner gets in. I also only condition my hair every other night because I am a greasy oily mfer (thanks to Mediterranean genes) and my hair gets oily extremely easily. Ever since I started conditioning every other night (my hair stylist suggested it for my hair) the oiliness has improved so so so much. I also use the products in picrel but if you’re in Italy I’m not sure if they have them there. Obligatory mention that I’m not an expert and my hair isn’t treated beyond trims and a Korean wavy perm I got a while back.

like by itself with no friend? probably 8-10 hours with adequete toys and play to entertain it while you're gone. (Personally I like interactive toys like picrel, it flaps when it gets hit) and don't leave cords out because they chew. I have two and left them alone for up to 14 hours but I would leave it really bright (they slept lots during the day) leaving a light on and blinds undone so sometimes when I would get home and it was dark and I needed sleep, I would make it pitch dark for contrast. My ex bfs brother was a vet tech and he said the two staying home was fine as long as entertained and then you play and bond with them when you're home.

The carrot thing is actually true, although the change isn't permanent. It's called carotenemia and it's caused by a build up of beta-carotene in the blood. You can get it from eating excessive amounts of any carotene-rich food too, not just carrots. It's pretty harmless, and it goes away once you change your diet.

At what age did you guys learn about and use moisturiser? My skin was always nice but i wanted a poreless shiny look so I would use the st ives apricot scrub, dry my skin out tremendously so it was definitely tight and that was it. At around 19 or so I became aware of anti aging creams and bought olay beauty fluid to try because I thought it was a cheap anti aging cream, I tried it and my skin looked and felt amazing. In hindsight im thinking what the fuck in terms of discovering moisturising through wanting an anti aging cream at 19, and wearing foundation without knowing what moisturiser is kek, something 32 year old me can’t consider.

Try a park or an arboretum, sometimes they are free. Some cities have historic downtown areas that are fun to just stroll around. There are usually nice places to walk around on nicer university campuses, nobody will know or care you're not a student. Unpopular pick but historic churches and cathedrals are beautiful to visit for the art/music/scents, they are entirely free and you don't need to be religious, these are also often quiet.

Could be pheromones. It's a misunderstood/controversial topic in science because humans apparently don't have the receptors to pick up on pheromones. No matter what you wanna call it though, body odor has been shown to play a role in mate attraction by giving us clues to whether our genetics are compatible for reproduction, and other social situations (some study suggests beta moids are pacified by alpha moid scent kek), so body odor is probably more important to humans than we tend to give it credit for. I'm a huge scent-fag and will only date moids if their body odor makes me go a little crazy. Had a bf once who had no body odor and I couldn't respond to him sexually no matter how handsome and cute he was.

Technically speaking, you could possibly never find out. If you truly are paranoid about it and have the means, just nuke and sell them both and buy new ones.

The odds of you having the latter are maybe slim, but not impossible depending on your moid. You're better off ridding yourself entirely if its a real threat model for you and not just musings.

Depends on what you like. I know the prices in the US are beyond retarded so I can't say if any of their products are worth it if you're a burger, just looking at the prices of the stuff they had on sale made me cringe.
The shower gels last forever, and the bubble bars last way longer than the bath bombs since you can cut the bubble bars up and spread them over several baths. I've gotten 6 baths out of the larger bubble bars and 2-4 baths out of the smaller ones. If you use them fresh it doesn't dilute the scent and you still get a shitload of bubbles but the color of the water won't be as vivid. The body lotions and massage bars are amazing and last a long time but you might need to keep them in the fridge if you live somewhere hot or they'll go bad. I used to love their shampoo bars but they changed the formula recently and they're shit for my hair now, but I've heard others rave about the new formula, so you might want to get a sample of that and see if it works for you. They're pricey but they really last a long time. I like some of their hair masks but again, get samples, they're too expensive to splurge on unless you know they're 100% worth the money. I have a couple of their body sprays and they're nice, but not necessarily worth the money. Don't buy the soap bars, they last about a week if you don't let them cure for like 4 months before using them, it's insane. Body scrubs are hit and miss.
Your best bet is to go to Lush and let them show you their products. They love doing demos and will gladly help you find something you like that's in your budget.

I get that everybody needs female friends too but most anons using that thread are likely very lonely. So somebody who actually even managed to score a romantic partner messaging you feels weird, like why do you even bother texting me, go talk to the dude sitting right beside you. Plus in school/work most of us already deal with other women constantly talking about all the nice things they did with their bf (which often feels like bragging even if it's not intended), so having to experience that again in a weirdish online space is likely simply not what most are looking for.

People that get pissed off at someone being in a relationship are insecure and have issues they need to sort out with themselves.

I feel insecure about only having a bachelors degree while my friends have their masters, instead of coming to terms with myself maybe I should only befriend people that haven't went to uni? Ah yes that's the answer. Great recipe for creating echo chambers, stunting personal growth and never exposing yourself to different perspectives and walks of life.

why are some people so obsessed with pathologizing and categorizing others?
it'd be one thing if it made sense, is trolling, or is just funny, but sometimes it's just schizo. the other day I saw someone come up with several different, rather obscure strawman fallacies to describe all people that are into a certain harmless hobby–and not one woman I've known into it was any of those things, not even close. is this a form of attention seeking or something?

Pretty sure buccal fat removal is one of those procedures that is very hard to undo if it's even possible.

Do fat people crave sugar more? Like if you lose weight will sugar not taste as good for you? I’m to help someone quit sugar, and usually the way it goes is that everything starts to taste way too sweet and gross, but this person is fat and tried some picrel (after almost 1 month no sugar or fruit) as a test and thought it was amazing while to me it tasted like chemicals and sugar.

No. 1872038

>>1872017
I think it's more dependent on individual taste buds and preferences. I'm a fatty-chan and everything tastes too sweet when I don't eat much sugar, while some of my skinny friends can do the same thing and feel no difference according to them. Went to look up the ingredients in your picrel and there's a sugar alcohol (erythritol) and artificial sweetener (allulose) in place of sugar, which is probably what you're tasting because those have a strong (nasty imo) taste. I assume some people are more sensitive to the taste than others because I've known people who don't mind sugar alcohols or artificial sweeteners and others who can't stand them.

No. 1872064

>>1872017
Yeah, fat people crave sugar more than those with balanced diets because the more you eat something, the more used you get to the flavor and the more you will want it to be stronger.
It's like eating spicy food, most normal people try it once and feel like it's too spicy, but after trying it again, and again, and again, it tastes delicious, the more they eat it, the less it will start tasting spicy, because they get used to it.
The issue is though, that being fat is also a mental thing, if that person doesn't internalize that sweets don't have to be 100% sugar, that person will always crave sweets and will never lower that tolerance to sweet stuff.
In the end it's a matter of cold turkey-ing the sweet intake and understanding that it's for their own good. That's what I did, and after a few years, around 5 years, I've begun to stop craving sugar as terribly as back then, and most sweet things now taste too sweet.
As long as that person gets support to keep going and actively wants to change their habits, everything will be alright.

You get tolerant to sweet flavors, but it's also more complicated than that. One thing scientists have discovered recently, in very simple terms, is it turns out eating food with a lot of added sugar (and also ultra-processed food) alters your gut microbiome. The bacteria in our gut are a reflections of what food we tend to eat. If you eat a lot of added sugar you will have more bacteria that thrives on sugar, while other bacteria dies from starvation. Scientists now believe our gut microbiome can also influence our cravings. If you have lots of bacteria that love added sugar, you will start to crave added sugar more. We are mind-controlled by the bacteria in our gut lol. Scientists have done poop transplants from people who were a normal weight with a healthy gut microbiome, transplanted their poop into a fattie, and the fattie lost weight as a result. They ate less, but seems like it was because they now had a healthy microbiome that didn't crave junk food all the time. I think there are other ways to lose weight and fix your diet than having a poop transplant, but knowledge of our gut microbiome can be a helpful tool in understanding and combating obesity. There is a lot of more factoring into obesity of course, I think genetics and fasting are other interesting fields of study, but basically obesity while being simple in theory is not as straight forward as it seems.

Well she’s not had even fruit or artificial sweeteners for a month (aside from the keto ice cream) but still craves? How long does it take microbiome to change? I thought a month would be good enough to see some kind of results

No. 1872272

>>1872260
Idk might be a matter of you having different palates. Sounds a bit odd that she still craves after a month. That said, beneficial gut microbiome feeds on fiber as far as I know, and people who do keto don't tend to get a lot of fiber. Additionally if she eats a lot of UPF, even if it's not sweet food, it usually contains flavor enhancers that might desensitize her to eating normal, low-processed food. There's also increasing research showing ultra-processed food, such as the ice cream you posted, contains additives that causes inflammation to the gut, particularly emulsifiers. This will again affect the gut microbiome. Not saying keto can't be good for some people, but UPF should be avoided imo no matter which diet.

Linen is pretty good, but I'd stay away from it as pants or shorts because they would wrinkle, whereas as flowing tops, skirts or as dresses, it's not much the case.

Retinol makes your skin more sensitive and exposure to sunlight will cause very serious burns, much worse than your normal skin before you started using retinol. You’re supposed to use it at night to avoid getting burns and damage from the sun, you shouldn’t use it during the day. Just put it on before bed and then wash your face in the morning, and when you go outside you have to make sure to wear sunscreen. Only using it at night will make it less likely for you to get sun damage but using it at all still sensitizes your skin a lot, which is why the container warns about needing to use sunscreen during the day.

It does have plenty of functions. However, the "catalogue" system mostly works by tags. Honestly if you don't know anything about scripting or whatever maybe you should get a simpler program because you're far more likely to write if it's easier to do.

It feels leathery, cold, I don't know. I brushed my finger against the back of my paternal grandmother's hand (she had a veil over her body though) and it certainly felt that way. Her hand also looked like it had makeup on it because I couldn't see her melasma spots, so maybe that contributed to it? Old people skin has that kind of leathery feel already, but it felt rough leathery. Kind of waxy, and most importantly dead cold. But then again I didn't exactly want to do it for long, I just wanted to imprint her skin one last time. Also her body was relatively 'fresh' and well preserved since we didn't half ass on funerary services, but I would imagine it to be different depending on the stage of decomposition?

I don’t know if this is the right thread to ask this, but is my boyfriend cheating or am I paranoid?
My boyfriend used to be very affectionate. He would call me every other day. When I sent photos of myself to him on Snapchat he’d save them in chat. Whenever I sent messages to him he’d respond to them quickly. Now he doesn’t do this anymore, and I can see that he’s active online but he takes a long time to respond to my messages (or sometimes doesn’t respond at all). He rarely ever says “I love you” first anymore. In the beginning of our relationship he’d send me long paragraphs declaring his love for me and constantly compliment me. He recently told me that he thinks he’s completely asexual even though he was anything but just a month ago.
There was an incident where a girl I didn’t know DM’ed me to say that my boyfriend was hitting on her boyfriend and that he was saying it was a joke but she wasn’t so sure. I believed him when he said he was joking. He is bisexual. He follows this one girl on Tik Tok who’s very attractive, and she also has multiple Twitter accounts which he all follows (some of which are private). He asked me if I was ok with him starting an Onlyfans account. He also started posting somewhat suggestive photos (for instance, a photo of his pants where his ass is turned to the camera and his shirt is lifted up slightly) even though he initially deleted all the suggestive photos on his account when we started dating.
I’m afraid that accusing him of cheating would do more harm than good. If I asked him about it and he genuinely wasn’t that would destroy his trust in me.

Idk if he’s cheating for sure, but it sounds like he’s changed over the course of your relationship. that could mean his feelings towards you have changed. rather than accusing him of cheating, I think you should bring up him seeming more distant or less affectionate. see how he responds. if he’s not fully in it with you, cut your losses and look elsewhere

When you’re feeling bad you try to comfort yourself. If you actually felt what others are feeling wouldn’t you try to comfort them? Having awareness of the way others feel doesn’t make you an empath, abusers are aware of how shit they make their victims feel, and will often get delight from saying the right thing that makes them feel the worst. Not saying you’re an abuser or a psychopath, I just don’t think you’re “high affective empathy” just for being able to acknowledged someone’s feelings, it’s very different from actually feeling them yourself/actually empathizing.

Depends on the state, but I'd say the general consensus is that summer is blistering sunshine and winter is midtier cold but no snow (temperature of a UK summer in northern states such as QLD, but gets colder the closer to Antarctica you get). Even in places like Tasmania it doesn't snow profusely. It just gets cold. If you want snow in Australia you usually go to New Zealand or Japan kek. When I think of snow I think of other countries because it's so unlikely to happen here. We don't get a lot of media promoting the image of winter with snow either; if it does snow somewhere it doesn't usually they goes apeshit.

It is incredibly hard to make the decision to get invasive surgery to remove the child from you. Pregnancy and birth is indescribably exhausting and painful, I would compare it to going to war and just barely making it back. The process of making the decision, then going and getting an abortion itself is horrifying. Recovering from an abortion is similar to recovering from giving birth, so your apprehension and fear of both decisions is perfectly sensical. We're here for you no matter what you choose nonnie.

Like I’m thinking about getting it all over with by 25 (currently 24), and I can think of two pros. 1, I’m young so I can heal/recover better and sooner/faster, and 2, My kid would be 10 or 11 by the time I’m 35, which means increasingless parenting by the time I’m 45 and hopefully done with it all by 50. Plus the fact that it would be awesome to be a parent and do things differently

>Recovering from an abortion is similar to recovering from giving birth,

No the fuck it is not. It's way easier, mentally and physically to recover from an abortion. When you give birth you bleed for weeks after, your hormone levels are completely fucked, your organs rearranged and now have to move back to normal, and not to mention now you have a screaming newborn to look after.

>>1875341
You probably just wanna be a mom. If you don't want to abort you should look into whatever government assistance you can, since you recently lost your job. Take prenatals and always go to your checkups. You have about 6 more weeks to decide if you want to proceed with the pregnancy, so you should do budgeting and think very realistically. Are you and the potential childs father on good terms? If not I'd personally advocate for the abortion tbh

Thank you. I guess that’s what is holding me back. I’ve heard abortion is just as painful. I see it like I’d gain nothing from aborting, my life would be back to normal eventually but with the possibility of nightmares about it and haunting regret after.

When you get an abortion you do bleed for days later, they don't just suck all the blood out of you at once. Your hormones are also completely fucked by the initial flood of pregnancy hormones, which are abruptly disrupted by the excretion of the baby.
>>1875374
>>1875379
>>1875400
Ok well personally when I had one, which granted was later than 4 weeks, healing from the dismemberment/suction method of abortion is absolutely fucking brutal. Yes, I would absolutely compare it to recovering from giving birth, because your cervix and vaginal canal isn't somehow unaffected or untouched by the process of abortion. Maybe an abortion pill process is much gentler, but getting an abortion (depending on how late she chooses to make the decision) and recovering from it can 100% without a doubt just as bad as giving birth. Yeah, you obviously don't have a screaming infant to learn how to breastfeed, but that doesn't just withdraw the physical pain women suffer from after having an invasive abortive service, just like I said in my post. I don't understand why everyone is angry with me and calling me a liar for making an accurate post…

I'm sorry but this is just plain not true. I'm sure individual experiences vary and all, but I've had an abortion at 9 weeks and I would never compare it to childbirth. It really sucked, don't get me wrong, it felt very scary and invasive and I was heavily bleeding for 6 weeks after. It was by no means easy. But only the most severely botched abortion could come close to being able to tear your vaginal canal the same way giving birth can.

So I didn't find out until I was 9 weeks (I know. Clueless), and I also don't have health insurance. I was originally trying to save up $700 for an abortion pill, but time continued to pass; and by the time I finally had $700 I was at the point of pregnancy where the only option I had was the D&E procedure. I had no choice but to save up the next $700 (it's around 1400 here) and then have my procedure. It was unusually lengthy for me due to my lack of healthcare.

Yes you can teach yourself, and there are classes depending on where you live.

If you decide to teach yourself, the easiest way is to remove pedals of a bicycle, and then just push yourself with your feet while sitting down until you get the hang of the balance. After that you put on pedals and learn how to incorporate pedaling into it.

It wouldn't be a girl only thing since that seems to be the norm, my husband would be there too.

His family would have to fly in if they wanted to come (same state, 1.5 hour flight), I wouldn't be upset if they didn't though.

We also don't really want any gifts, also because we would have to try and fit them in luggage to take back home. I have a registery I've been using for my own organisation in baby related stuff so I could link that on the invited but say please don't feel the need to give us a gift, this is just so if you do want to give us something it's nothing big or bulky and can be delivered straight to our door.

Don't be proud. You have baby in family that act deserves gifts. Link an Amazon wishlist that will deliver to your home address or to the address of a friend if you're going to be out of state for long. Fill it with mostly realistic things like diapers (don't ask for newborn size diapers because the baby will outgrow those the quickest), baby wipes, etc. This will save you a lot of money that can be used to provide for the baby in different ways. Family enjoys helping out family, it's not a burden on them, it's a celebration for you and the new life.

Having absolutely no experience in this at all, and solely based on these two responses, I'm going to guess pain tolerance is like weather tolerance, e.g how you feel about 30F/-1C depends on what the weather was like where you grew up, what it's like where you live now, what the temperature has been the last few weeks and your natural feelings about cold weather.

Someone who lives in Maine vs Texas would have very different feelings about 30F. And someone who lives in Maine would have different feelings about 30F in the summer than in the winter. And in the winter if they past few days have been -10F/-23C would have different feelings about 30F then they would if the past few days had been 45F/7.2C. And someone who grew up in Maine but the spent the the last 10 years in Texas until moving back would have become habituated to Texas weather and probably wouldn't like 30F unless they were someone who loved could weather and were very happy to be back.

I really need advice. I am severely depressed and I have tried everything except regular therapy because I can't afford it (therapy where I live is insanely expensive and my insurance doesn't cover any of it). I hate living so much that I can't imagine making it past a couple more years at most, and tbh I am afraid I won't make it that long because once every month or so I get really close to putting my plans in place. My parents have finally realized how bad I am after I had a breakdown at work and admitted it to them, and they have offered to pay for therapy.

This might sound like an obvious solution but my parents don't have any money to spare because they are older and on a fixed income and already live very frugally to get by. My mom said she would go back to work to help me pay for it but the thought of my poor mother doing that makes me physically ill with guilt and I just can't accept it. It's extra horrible too because my brother is a complete fuck up who is still mooching off of them well into adulthood and makes their lives hell, I was supposed to be the one who had her shit together to ease their burden. I just can't bring myself to accept their offer, they already struggle so much.

But then I start thinking, wouldn't it be worse for them if I killed myself and didn't accept their help? But even still, I just CAN'T take their offer. It's unconscionable to me.

I really think I should have it because I don’t feel mature enough, mentally healthy, or financially stable. I don’t have a degree at 24. I am behind in life achievements and I don’t want to depend on my SO. I guess I’d have to look into a quick certification that I can finish by 9 months.

I guess I don’t know how natural is an abortion? And also that I am sure I might not want another kid after plus that I know a lot of people who had kids in not perfect conditions and they turned out fine

If I only had sexual fantasies about women (even if they don’t include sex because through early puberty I didn’t know how lesbian sex worked) even if they’re really fetishistic and sadistic does that mean I’m a lesbian because I’ve never had those about guys?

Are you secretly considering handing off the kid to your mom or parents for help with raising it? If you have a kid now you're not going to finish a degree. If you do you'll be in your 40s. If you feel like you're already behind in life imagine yourself sitting in a classroom full of people in their 20s trying to get your first degree. Are you and the baby daddy even married? If not you have no legal protection and he can easily leave you in the dust financially. If you are not even independent you shouldn't be having child. We haven't even seen the worst of the economic crisis we're entering in right now. Prices are only going up.

Unpopular but I don't think you should push yourself into it if you feel held back, since I've known women who didn't realize they felt pressured (e.g., by a bf, by their work) to end things when their gut was telling them to hesitate, and they ended up having a lot of emotional stress about it later. I know birth is daunting but if you did decide later on that you don't want to raise a child, you could give them up for adoption, it's not like you're committing to the whole thing by taking time to think some more. I just don't think this is something to rush or to depend too much on external validation for (especially from people who don't know you or who would have a vested interest) since I've known several women who ended up feeling like that choice was made for them and that their personal feelings were disregarded. You are not being stupid for having doubts, a lot of women go through that. Be well nona

What is wrong with people born in the 70s and 80s? I see a lot of boomer hate on the Internet but most boomers I know are nice to deal with. It is the Gen X and late millennials that are the most mean-spirited and deeply retarded IMO. My take on it is they are cranky because they are getting older but are deeply lobotomized due to only knowing a world with blockbuster movies, videogames, and neoloberalism. Essentially the first "modern" generations.

Nature schmature. What good is nature? Ancient Egyptians were doing abortions 3000 years ago and Ancient Romans just abandoned their unwanted babies to die in a pit outside town built exclusively for that purpose.

I'll be honest, I think most women regret getting rid of the baby even if its 100% the right choice. They have alot of emotional turmoil afterwards around it.

Why do I get an attitude with my family members only and not with batchmates, close friends, and teachers? Every once in a while I'll say something in the wrong tone, one that makes it obvious I'm irritated and my family will get pissy and tell me that I'm being rude.
Recently, my father asked me something after he'd had me refill his water bottle when I was in the middle of having my dinner and I asked him "what?" in that same annoyed tone and he got mad(with his stupid "I'm angry" shinhaku eyes) and then just gave me the silent treatment, and later my mother came to me telling me I'm being disrespectful and need to correct my behaviour and that my personality is terrible and that she bets that I talk like that with my friends in college too. I told her that's not true but I'm realizing it really isn't true.

Yes I agree, but this nonna needs to prepare that she very well might be emotionally wrecked if she does get an abortion, regardless of it being the right choice.
Since she's said she wishes she could put the baby on hold for later, it makes me think it'd going to be very devastating for her going forward, when she's laying in bed trying to sleep it will creep into her mind and upset her. She needs to prepare and understand. Maybe it won't be this awful for her, but it is for many women and I feel like it's always brushed off when it shouldn't be.

It's because your parents regularly cross your boundaries and put you down without proper justification (as shown by your example) so you've probably developed a constant state of defensive aggression around them. Is the way your parents act with you much worse than any way your other acquaintances or friends have ever treated you? If yes then that's why you're not in that alert, I-will-be-attacked-for-anything-so-gotta-be-ready-to-defend-myself state around people other than your family members.

the only chance you'd fall pregnant from precum is if the guy had previously ejaculated <4.5 hours beforehand, he didn't pee since then, and you were within 5 days either side of ovulation. even then, it's not 100% that implantation would occur. so in other words the chances are pretty slim.

So materials like cotton, linen, and wool are natural fabrics because you can get fibers from the source without chemical processing. Synthetic fabrics like polyesther and nylon are plastic/polymers, they don't have a natural source. Semi-synthetics like rayon and viscose are usually made from plant pulp, so they're from a natural source but are chemically processed to make fibers. I found this guide that explains the differences pretty well: https://www.undershirts.co.uk/blogs/research/basics-the-difference-between-natural-and-synthetic-textiles The same information is screencapped in picrel if you don't want to click a shop link.

You can't do much to change your physical features, but you can learn to work to make the best of what you have. Try dressing in colours that compliment your skin tone, style your hair in a way that compliments your face shape, develop your personal sense of style so that your wardrobe reflects the person you want to be. I think a lot of "being hot" is just feeling secure, confident, and happy in the way you present yourself. What society considers attractive will always ebb and change with time, but certain attributes like health, confidence, and kindness will always be attractive. On the note of kindness, reading about social etiquette and the art of conversation is something a lot of people overlook but remains a very important factor. Apparently Cleopatra wasn't very physically attractive, but her knowledge and conversation skills were so appealing that many powerful scrotes fell head over heels for her.

>I think he is handsome objectively.
You must be attracted to monkeys or primates then which is fucking nasty. I'll go through the 8 monkey identifiers that are most commonly discussed on Brad Pitt hate forums since obviously you want to be spoonfed. Look at the photo for a guide.
>1)His forehead/brain.
His forehead is very small in comparison to the rest of his face, indicating a smaller cranium volume. Whereas most actors seem to get bigger heads as time moves forward, Brad's small cranium has always been noteworthy as its why his brain is so small and retarded. You can look up the allegations made against Brad by his former wife Angelina Jolie. One of the most agreed upon allegations is that he used to hit and punch his sons, just like how male monkeys attack their offspring.
>2) His retarded uneven monkey ears.
Notice that Brad's ears are completely uneven, much like that of a monkey that has to move its ears around the jungle to hear any incoming predators. You can also clearly see a defined Darwin's tubercle, a vestigial birth defect some lesser-evolved humans exhibit which is clearly visible on monkeys.
>3) His brow ridge.
Technically, Brad has a brow ridge more comparably to a neanderthal or an early modern human that is designed to keep the sweat from pooling in his deep-set eye craters. Why is this an indicator of his monkey-ness then? Well because it lets us know that Brad sweats a lot, most likely having a noxious and easily-detectable body odour much like what you'd encounter when you walk past the primate exhibit at your local zoo. Besides his low brow ridge, there's also too large a gap between his eyebrows (which almost extend towards his ears) that easily identify him with primates.
>4) His eyes.
I don't need to explain this one. Look into his eyes in any photo, and you'll quickly realize that there is no soul inhabiting his body. Unlike real human beings that possess a soul and are given the chance at eternal life, when Brad dies, he will just be destroyed. Like any other animal he will turn into dirt and his body will be eaten by his monkey compatriots.
>5) His nostrils.
Even after his nose job, Brad's nostrils are constantly flared outwards, as if reflexively. This is odd as most human beings have to consciously flare their nostrils, or do it subconsciously when performing heavy labour or exercise. For Brad, however, his nostrils are always flared out because just like a monkey he takes shallow, rapid breaths, unsure of when he will fall from a vine or a tree, he has to make each breath count.
>6) The space between his lips and nose
If I were to guess, I'd say this space is about an 3/4 of an inch too long to be considered passingly human. It's much more reminiscent of an orangutans morphology. This space has evolved to be larger for monkeys so that its easier for them to bear their teeth to rivals and showcase their aggressive tendencies.
>7) Tiny upper lip but massive lower lip
Besides the obvious telltale sign of fetal alcohol syndrome (he has an underdeveloped cupid's bow and a lack of visible philtrum, something he tries to cover up with facial hair), his ugly lips are reminiscent of a chimp's usual facial demeanor of keeping the upper lip flexed and the lower lip pouted outwards. It's like he's permanently in the state of having half-eaten leaves or berries hanging out of his gross mouth because he can't fit them all down his gullet before the photoshoot.
>8) Overly large jaw.
Monkeys evolved large, strong jaws for biting through tree bark and eating other monkeys that they view as a threat. Just like those same retarded chimps, Brad has a huge jaw that's wider than his forehead. It gives the appearance of a violent gorilla that's spent years attacking rivals in his gorilla social group for dominance.

Most churches will have a 10 week introduction program where you talk to the Council of Regional Priests and learn about the bible, then if you pass the Grand Standing test at the end of the program the Headmaster Priest will give you the rights to enter the church without having another Christian guardian with you, as long as you have your diploma with you. After a few months you may be asked to become Christian, at that point it all depends if the priest wakes up on Easter Sunday and sees his shadow or not. If he does, converts are accepted, if he doesn't you have to wait until next year. It all depends on what type of church you go to, but this is the process most churches follow.

The print is neither too sober or too fancy so it wouldn't look jarring and I have nice leather sandals so I don't think the overall look would have too much of a lazy vibe.

One side of my throat is swollen and sensitive as fuck, I can't swallow without a ton of pain and I don't know what the fuck to do about it. It's not actually inside my throat but rather in the muscles or something? So no kind of "sore throat relief" works at all, and painkillers don't seem to help either. I'm in so much pain I can't eat, but I'm at a complete loss of apetite anyway. Now my head also hurts and I feel nauseous but I suspect those 2 come from pms and my period possibly being close… I don't know though.

Take the car to a mechanic and be (semi)honest with them, say you've had a stalker in the past, and you're worried your car is tagged and ask if they can help you look for a tag. You don't have to disclose that this is a new stalker, you can act as if you think it's one and the same person so they don't think you're just crazy and paranoid. Also make sure to say stuff like "I know I might just be a bit paranoid and maybe it's nothing, but with the stalker it's better to be safe than sorry".

Realistically if it IS tagged, he shouldn't have had access to the inside right? So it should be reachable from the outside. He may have opened the hood up and put it there, or under the car.

Stop going to ANY of your regular stores/places. Find an alternative for each and every one, like start going to the grocery store further away instead of the closest one. If you guys live in the same area, both of you shopping at the closest places is natural. Same if you both happen to realize you need a new ice scraper for the car the week it started snowing, sometimes that happens. However if he suddenly starts turning up when you start going to other places you can be sure something is up.

NEVER show this kind of doubt, it will make people question your logic and shift from "maybe there is something wrong" mindset to "I have to comfort this paranoid woman and say anything to make her feel better" in my experience.

Most people are not extroverts or introverts, they're in between. And that in between depends on the person.
What I think has to do with it is control. A human needs community in environments that are unfamiliar. If the environment is familiar, you have the upper hand, which is better at helping you survive rather than relying on someone else.
>A lonely human wouldn't have high chances of surviving without their family/community
Exactly. But as you said, community. The trusted people one has. If you don't have trusted people, then it's better being alone than not being alone. Because other people aren't always community, sometimes it can be a threat.

Can I / Should I get nsfw text printed off from fedex? I'm trying to make my bf a cute little lottery ticket for Valentine's Day as part of his gift, where you scratch off a "What, Where, When" and the options for the "What" section of the lottery ticket would be "Blowjob, Sex, Handjob".
Other than that there would be no NSFW elements in the design, but would I be a weirdo for getting this printed off at fedex? I need it printed on cardstock or I would just do it at my house.

Kek this is a funny Valentine's gift. I suggest getting a few other scratch tickets too to hide the sexy one between. You could get it printed at Fedex. They'd probably look at you funny but it's not that deep. If you go to that Fedex often, you could just go to a different location so you wouldn't have to go back. I used to take sex photos on disposable cameras and get them developed at my local pharmacy before it dawned on me that the people developing photos see the end results before I do.

Learn to cook stuff you'd usually order. A buncha food like Chinese takeout or pizzas are easy to make because the ingredients are easily found in the grocery store. Learn to make some quick and easy meals, like refried beans (which is just grease and pinto beans in a skillet which you mash), omelette with spinach/mushrooms/cheese, polenta, or even throwing a few veggies into olive oil with seasoning and wrap in aluminum foil to bake an hour in the oven at 200°C, provided you have an oven.
It's really easy once you know a few basics to not rely on ordering food as much. You really don't have to spend 45-80 minutes in the kitchen to make food anymore.
Or you could even meal prep if you have every weekend off, that way you have all your meals for the week and only have to reheat em.

AYRT. Sorry I responded with hostility, I just thought you were trying to further French ideology rather than being ignorant to the truth. Basically, "Joseph Capgras" as we know him was one of the first counter earth inhabitants to successfully make it to our earth and replace the real Joseph Capgras, who was a sheep farmer from Toulouse. The doppelganer of Joseph started the myth of the Capgras delusion to punish people for becoming aware of counter earth and their program of replacing real earth inhabitants with doppelgangers. Counter Capgras was a very intelligent man because he singled out women as sufferers of the "disease" because he knew that the not many would believe them in the patriarchal state of France.

I feel like we don't know each other well enough to just spend a lazy evening hanging out on the couch or in the pub like I do with my normal friend group, so I'd rather not do that.

What's the point of going to a cafe just to read books? Is it actually good? Last time I went to Starbucks just to grab a drink and stay warm before going back home there were a bunch of teenagers yelling at loudly as possible on purpose while doing their homework and I wanted to leave asap because of that and the guy between my table and theirs couldn't focus at all when trying to read a novel because of them.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/tech-support/202104/how-toxic-families-choose-a-child-to-scapegoat
Scapegoating allows a parent to think of the family as healthier than it is; if it weren’t for that one individual—yes, the scapegoat—the family would be perfect, and life would be blissful.
Scapegoating lets a parent minimize responsibility and explain negative events, enhancing a sense of control by blaming everything that happens on the scapegoated child.
There is also a section in this article about how the author thinks the scapegoat gets chosen. According to it, different parents pick different types of kids to scapegoat and she goes into that. Maybe you will see your family there.

There is this website: https://www.scapegoatrecovery.com/. The resources there might help you deal with the abuse done to by your family. You didn't deserve what happened to you. I hope you can heal and stop caring about why the did what they did because they don't deserve any space inside your head.

Put em in aluminum foil, stab fleshy veggies like eggplants, sweet potatoes etc with a fork a couple of times, add a clove or two of garlic - you can sometimes even insert the cloves into the flesh of vegetables if you're a garlic fanatic -, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, even some nice dried herbs or spices if you like, wrap it all together and bake in an oven for 30-60 minutes depending on how many veggies you wrapped in it and how big their size is at around 200-225°C. The aluminum foil traps all the flavors like a steamer and the olive oil and seasoning penetrates the veggies to add a je ne sais quoi to em without too much of an effort. And not too much prep work is required. Which is sometimes a blessing when you don't wanna stay in the kitchen for hours on end.

What should I have to keep myself living? I feel like living for me isn’t worth it, like, what have I done all these years? Nothing. What am I even doing? It’s been the same since forever. I am friendless, never had one, I don’t talk to anyone aside from family, I end up being annoying online so no one befriends me online. Is my only option really to end it? I don’t have anything that motivates me to keep on going, because there’s nothing for me. Sure, family will be upset, but they only tolerate me for what I am able to provide for them. Last time I had a breakdown my mom who I love the most told me to stop it because she didn’t want to be embarrassed in front of her family. And yeah I mean I’m a grown ass woman and acting like this? I get it. So what are my options? I’m really dependent and can’t do shit on my own.

Get therapy. If that's not viable, get off the internet and pick one thing you can do by yourself that gives you a tangible result, then do more of it. If you can peel a vegetable or boil water, you can cook, so cook more. If you can post on lolcow, you can write, so keep a journal or write a story. You can be as shit at it as you like as long as you keep doing it. Slowly your mind will change and you'll be able to become more independent. This is a weeks-to-months long process btw, don't expect things to change overnight. You honestly sound like you'd benefit from simply getting off the internet and learning to be OK with your own company. Being a useless cringey retard with no worth or skills is very popular nowadays, you're definitely not alone in feeling this way.
Seriously though, get a hobby and leave the internet before you get memed into cutting your tits off and opening an Onlyfans.

You seriously need therapy, your posts sound exactly like me when I was up to my neck in depression. I'm going to come across as a bitch here but if you're like this IRL that's why you don't have friends. You need to keep trying until you get results, even when you're sure it's all a sham and you're doomed to fail. Stop handwringing online about how you're the embodiment of a fart in an elevator and get professional help. Do the exercises your therapist gives you. Stick to routines or exercises you think are useless. Stop finding reasons to give up. You've been like this for 20 years, of course making changes will be frustrating and difficult.

I have a question for nonnies familiar with Middle Eastern/Muslim majority countries- do girls just lie about having past boyfriends? It seems that guys will be upfront about having some experience prior to marriage but girls never seem to admit anything. I’m honestly just curious because the math doesn’t work out for me- I have to conclude that girls just reset their boyfriend count to 0. Is this the case?

No. 1883112

>>1883108
I'm curious as well. Do they even have a dating history? It seems like they stay away from men until their parents pick out some dude for them to marry, and if you somehow divorce him you've brought shame to your family for the rest of your life. Maybe in more progressive Muslim places like Dubai it's different though.

No. 1883122

>>1883108
Depends on the country but for conservative muslims the concept of "dating" does not even exist and a daughter would be disowned for dating. For these people, the couple is allowed to go on a few chaperoned dates or meetings within the home with absolutely no physical contact between the couple and then the two families come to an agreement on whether or not a marriage will happen.

No. 1883125

>>1883108
no tbh even my hijabi mom is upfront about having had boyfriends in the past but to be fair i'm from morocco which is probably the most "open" muslim country imo. being boyfriend and girlfriend usually ends up in engagement anyway because girls get married fast. actually maybe i shouldn't be answering this because i'm a sheltered recluse kek but i know hijabi girls who were players and had lots of boyfriends before but here it just means you called yourself boyfriend and girlfriend and went on dates with that person only (usually with hopes of engagement and marriage but not necessarily). ofc after marriage it's highly frowned upon/borderline forbidden for the woman to bring up past relationships out of "modesty" though but i wouldn't call that lying really. but older women will still brag about her past suitors etc… but mostly i think it depends on the country

I was a NEET for years, had no interests or hobbies really besides taking care of things for my family members. It isn't an instant process to improve your life and I still have those moments where I question what kind of existence I have because I'm not beautiful, intelligent, interesting, or surrounded by close friends. But small steps at a time really help. If you're not able to work full-time yet, volunteer a few hours a week. If you're not interested in a particular hobby, try just going for walks and exploring the world around you. If you don't have friends at least try to do something that involves a bit of social interaction, for me that was going back to school.

If someone is having a severe allergic reaction call the emergency line immediately and ask them to send an ambulance because of a severe allergic reaction. Or, rush them to the hospital yourself to the emergency room.

You really aren't screwed, if you are proactively looking for for a job, go get a late diploma (I did that at your age, one that's done in 2 years) or even try to find a work/study training program.

NTA but usually if a person knows they can have a strong reaction to whatever they're allergic, they have the EpiPen thingy on them in case of emergencies. Ask if your friend has one. If not then always call your local emergency number first, because they will be able to tell you what to do, they are trained in first aid. If you are generally anxious about them or situations like this, I suggest taking a first aid class, they'll teach you the right decisions to make.

Does anyone have experience or advice about using Respondus? I have to use it for an exam next week and I keep seeing horror stories about it locking up peoples computers even after they're done with it, among other concerning things like privacy issues. I'm also ADHD and really finnicky (especially when I'm nervous, and my grades are extremely important to me, so of course I will be) and my professor already gave us a heads-up about how "if we need to look around to think, look up and it wont flag you," which doesn't bode well because it's not something I can guarantee I can control. I've also been told that noises in the background will set it off, but I take care of my autistic brother who has echolalia from when he wakes up to when he goes to bed and gets upset when he isn't allowed to engage in it, and two cats who occasionally whine at me or roughhouse and might frequently require me to leave my seat, so I'm considering just taking it in my car at this point.
I'm not asking how to cheat, just for any precautions I can take to make sure it doesn't hurt my computer, and/or any advice about what it does or doesn't flag so I know how much I have to keep myself in check. Even stuff like the "chapstick to obscure the webcam" trick I've read is welcome. If I don't feel like I have at least some safeguard, I'm the type that will be scared to breathe just so I can safely deny I did anything wrong in the situation that I do set something off.

Venting on the side: I hate having to deal with this at all and wish I at least had the OPTION to take the exam physically on campus.

Most creative people are insecure as fuck, add being a woman to the mix and you for a mess, because being a woman into arts and crafts means you must be perfect in every single way.

>inb4 what about this or that or this particular special group I'm at with 4 women
Those spaces may exist but they're not public and of easy access as your average art discord or art group on Instagram ir even worse, Twitter.
Plus another perk of qwerty tags is the exposure you get, if you tag something with just "sketch, art, colors, insert brand" no one will give a fuck, but if you add the super special pride hashtag that's rainbow colored, more people will pay attention to it because being gay means you're being oppressed, it will always mean that because gay people are oppressed, specially to the normies that barely lurk the internet and probably have only talked to one gay person in their whole 20 something years alive.
Then you add tranny shit and according to most news outlets, they're getting homicided and hate crime'd every second, so they get at least a pity like, a pity follow or a "I guess I will follow this retard so people think I'm inclusive" follow.

My latest ban. The person I was replying was baiting from the start and they decide to ban me after I am done with the conversation? After the post I went to sleep so if they banned me right after the post it is a long ban for "infighting". I just saw it while trying to post on snow.
Btw how do they even measure this? I keep getting 30 min bans then hour long bans and then 2 days bans and you'd think the 2 day ban is for something serious but nah, is for a joke on ot, and then 30 min for actual infighting on snow and hours for "infighting" on ot. The hell? Next they gonna ban me for not taking it to meta.
This is like oldmin again, getting long ass bans just cus some tranny janny is constipat… I mean… on her period.

It's simple. The more "marginalized" you are in left spaces the more you can get away with being an asshole. It's like in right spaces the less marginalized you are the more you can be an asshole, but taken the opposite trajectory. That's because they think that people who are less privileged in life deserve to have more lenient rules applies to them, since bad things happened to them. In leftism, suffering is something that is seen as a badge to show off.
Straight, male, white, thin, attractive, not mentally and physically ill = not marginalized.
Lgbt, person of gender, poc, fat, ugly, disabled = marginalized.
Right wing and left wing in this I mean progressive and regressive, they act as opposites to each other. So everything one is, the other isn't.
Also you can't, as a rule, talk about a topic unless the group you're in personally experienced it. You MUST belong to a category (white or poc, straight or gay, cis or trans etc) even if they claim labels are unimportant. You can't "appropriate" suffering that happened to another group, otherwise you'll receive backlash. So if you want to speak about an experience or just lecture someone else because you feel like it, you have pretend to be some sexuality you aren't in order to speak up about your problems otherwise you gotta stfu. That way you'll be seen as an authority on that subject.

It's the exact same sensation I had in my legs the many times when I passed out from low blood pressure, it's really weird. Is it normal as someone who doesn't practice sports at all or should I be worried? Is it just a sign that I really need to get more physically active to begin with?

how do i get it through my family's head that they put their cat in danger by letting their huge dog play with her? the dog is ~kind~ but he is gigantic and roughhouses with the cat all the time, grabbing her neck and whatnot. the dog adores the cat, but i'm sure that his instinct will kick in at some point and he'll accidentally kill her. i've pointed this out to them numerous times but they just say that it's okay because the dog is sweet and doesn't play with the cat that aggressively. this happens unsupervised a lot of times.

this is my mom's new family and i only visit them a couple of times a year. they got this cat last year and the dog a year before that. if it were one of the cats that i grew up with, i would literally remove it from the house and make it move in with me. i also have my own cat and if i were to take him with me to their house, i would never let the dog play with him.

Yeah. Something is wrong lately. I’ve been here since 2016 and many of the bans aren’t paying attention to context and the jannies don’t seem to be up on the board culture of the site they’re moderating.
The userbase feels different too, though.
I think maybe we’re hanging on to a lolcow that doesn’t exist anymore. I used to love coming on here and reading unhinged sperg rants from funny, clever, weird women. The days of genuinely hilarious user-generated content on here are coming to an end because it’s being modded out. There are no more copypastas a la Komaeda-chan or anorectal violence-kun. The homemade dildo setup that that nonnie posted once would likely have been banned in a heartbeat instead of becoming a legendary post.

Skating is like doing a slight continuous squat for hours on end (if you do it somewhat properly, with bent knees), so it's natural to be fatigued. But of course you should exercise more if you can, but doing a new sport is probably going to tire out people even if they go the gym already because it uses different muscles. I did figure skating as a sport for years and also go to the gym but if I skate after a long break it still tires me out.

the stimulation medication are multiple daily injections not pills. a coworker of mine who did it said she counted 200 needles in total for her one cycle. egg retrieval is an invasive surgery where they have to knock you out to perform.

Why are south korean singers better than the japanese at singing in english?

>seemingly
They may seem to have good lives but don't or are unstable, weird, and/or isolated. I'm from a Muslim family in the west, normal white people never convert to Islam unless it's to marry a Muslim (usually from a liberal or moderate Muslim family), and usually the "conversion" is not that serious and more to please the family. They can be very nice and genuine people, but like I said, they are not actually doing well.

How the hell do I eat 140g of protein daily? That sounds like it’ll lead me to overeat even though I’m trying to lose weight

No. 1885310

>>1885278
140g is a pretty high amount. Chicken breast, shrimp, and tofu are all good high-protein low-cal options for stacking your intake. You could also try to drink some of those meal-replacement shakes meant for seniors, but drink it alongside a meal. Try getting the ones meant for diabetics so that there's less sugar.

/fit/ nonnas i have a question
I have recently started Starting Strength and it’s very fun. I enjoy doing it and seeing my strength improve makes me happy. That said, I would also like to focus on hypertrophy, specifically I want a nice round butt. I have one of those butts with square looking cheeks. I understand in time the strength training will help with that goal, the deadlifts and squats especially! I was wondering if I did high rep lower weight good mornings and hip thrusts on my days off from Starting Strength routine if it would help me reach my goal, and/or if doing so would impede upon my strength training progress.

Has anyone else had the experience of people being a little strange when you tell them bye over the phone?

When I say people I mean the people that work desks at offices. There's been so many times where I have called a medical office to make an appointment or ask questions and say "thank you so much, have a good day/afternoon goodbye" and the person over the phone gives a weird "…you too bye". Is it because I wait for a response before hanging up? Am I being weird?

I already drink lots of water before and after eating so it's not that (I tend to feel hungrier right after drinking water weirdly enough).

You have this thing on your face called the "nose" (picrel), it can be used to smell things, including the body. What you want to do is put your nose up to something, and inhale through the nostrils of the nose (this action is commonly referred to as "sniffing" in nose jargon). Once you inhale through your nostrils, you may notice the sensation of "smelling." Hope this helps nonnie.

No. 1886218

Get one of those posture-correcting shoulder braces made of stretchy material to wear for a few hours a day. Look into calisthenics and yoga to improve the muscles in your back (weak back muscles go hand in hand with poor posture). Make an effort to correct any pelvic tilt you may have. Set a silent alarm on your phone to go off every hour to remind yourself to fix your posture. Poor posture is the leading cause of heart disease, big pharma wants you to think it's cholesterol but that's a German myth.

Yes, it's common for people to become so used to their own musk that they fail to recognise a bad smell, I left my bedroom for awhile and when I came back I noticed how stuffy it actually smelt, now I wasn't as used to it.

Remedy this by taking necessary precaution, wash everyday, wash clothing after 2-3 wears for non strenuous activity and after every wear for strenuous, wash bedsheets, open windows during the day. Stuff like that. If you're really worried, ask someone you trust to be honest with you.
