NAYRT, I remember knowing of someone who had it, he wasn't a tumblr user, he was actually an artist who would teach classes, he said when he was younger he didn't know he was "switching" until the people around him brought up how he would act and say shit he never remembered, he basically grew up in an abusive home because his dad was foreign and got bullied at work so then he'd abuse his wife and son. Then he got groomed by his teacher. Anyway, he said that people recognised his "splitting" before he did, especially because he would become hostile at random times which was out of character for him. I had a friend who struggled to research DID seriously because of all the fakers who turned DID into kinning 2.0. TBH I was there on tumblr when the gendie crowd started off claiming they had "MPD" to ship "problematic ships" like agegap and talk shit about others (basically using it as a get out of jail free card), but then many got called out for using an actual fake disorder so then the gendie crowds appropriated DID because it was "legit" so they could say "I don't remember saying [thing] because it was a different version of me at the time [so pls no cancel…,,.]" idk how it is for you but is it similar to what I described? The only other person who described DID to me was a woman who said when she was abused as a child it was like it caused tears in her brain and any personality she had was just a mimic of what the abusers had already said before, which made people think she was lying about her abuse because she would apparently act like she had enjoyed it when it was not "her" saying those things. I've struggled to be able to research actual DID because of fakers and now google is becoming increasingly more commercial and asks if I want to buy DID. How did you learn about it and come to understand yourself to accept it? Hope you have a good week Nonna

thank you for believing me, that honestly sounds somewhat similar to my experience, DID is an extremely covert disorder and often goes undetected into adulthood, as it's a disorder formed to protect you from things you can't handle and keep you sane and functional when you're in an environment so chaotic that there is no resting for you, you need to be on guard all of the time. being an overt or extremely dramatic disorder like people on tiktok try to illustrate is counterproductive to the point of DID. the switch between alters is not as dramatic as gendies want to illustrate, it very often feels like a subtle switch in attitude and often done subconsciously because your brain has deemed THAT mental state to be the one best suited for the situation at hand. blackouts are also extremely rare and would be counterproductive to the whole "discreet" part of the disorder, for me i experience extremely heavy amnesia, but it's not immediate for the most part, i find that i'm able to retain memories of the past few days, but it quickly begins to dissipate and be suppressed.

honestly, the memory issue is how i noticed, i had just gotten out of an extremely abusive relationship and when trying to recall it to others, i realized i had absolutely zero ability to recall the 3 years i had just experienced. furthermore, i began to realize almost my entire childhood was lost to me as well, and when expressing concern about this to a friend, she mentioned i might be dissociating. upon looking it up, i got results for DID and immediately closed the browser because i had seen that shit during my combat years on tumblr and had chalked it up to roleplay, much like the others in this thread. in 2015 i was friends with a lot of people who were faking DID, including an extremely infamous user who caused a lot of drama throughout the website, so needless to say my mental image of DID wasn't good. i ignored it until i realized i was losing recent memories as well, people kept telling me about things i did or said and didn't remember and i could physically feel my demeanor switching all over the place, as well as my intentions, the people i liked, my dreams for the future. i couldn't get my story or my memories straight, i felt so confused, it was much like how that woman described it, like a tear in my brain, though i oftePost too long.

how do you post a medical diagnosis on the internet without doxxing either yourself or your doctor?
>>2268157
nta but I can recommend 'the haunted self'.
>>2268176
ntayr, I believe you too. most people don't believe it because to develop it needs worse adverse childhood experiences and nobody wants to believe children when they tell about what happened to them.
DID influencers are the worst to me.

>>2268176
you wouldnt happen to have a joseph smith 'alter' would you topkek

>>2268387
thank you, i think a lot of things that fakers, especially influencers, don't understand is that DID is EXTREMELY covert. even when i had my ex telling me i suddenly seemed like an entirely different person or that i was realizing during 2020 i couldn't recall anything about the summer of 2019, it wasn't something i considered at all. i can look back on certain things on my past now and go "ooohhhh, so that was the disorder…" but because it forms during early childhood, living with the disorder is your normal. everything about is just normal. you don't question it, because why would you? you've lived this way for as long as you can remember.

i think a lot of kids who get swept up in the trend of faking DID do it because they see some of the symptoms and think it applies to them, especially if they are developing BPD related symptoms. if you're a 13 year old little girl nerd who is bullied at school with parents who don't get along and can only find solace in people on discord, and those people happen to ALSO think they have DID, i can easily see how that's a rabbit hole one can fall into, especially with how teenagers will do anything to fit in, but i can't help but be frustrated that situations like that lead to people like >>2268510 thinking what they're saying makes them seem cool and smart for being enlightened and able to see through the psyop.

does this count?

>>2266999
whats abusive about this she isnt claiming hes a tranny

>>2266999
i don't think so, also children will start crying over not getting what they want and over everything, so this isn't hard to believewhen i was a child i cried when they wouldn't buy me a bedazzled jean jacket kekk

>>2007934
compared to what the girls end up wearing in later seasons the top screenshot actually ends up looking normal, but you aren't wrong, Euphoria was carried by it's actresses and costume designer and the art direction(that he stole) alone, otherwise this would just be a spiritual successor to Cuties.

In a professional setting, sure.

But if something’s retarded something’s retarded. Imo society needs to bring it back!

Even amid the increasing problems with the "community" in recent years, it never annoyed me seeing pride flags out and about until everyone adopted the "progress" flag. It pisses me the hell off when I see it. I can't stand it, and everyone who uses it is a POS.

Questionnaires now let you choose gender/sex other than male/female. And added the custom pronouns crap.

>>2266965
Unpopular opinion but I actually think that's a good thing. It's a great way to filter out mentally ill opinions.

>>1162727
Old post but I think this is often just part of a coloniser fetish. They know what they're doing, for the most part. Without the LARP, it would be too much like the normal relationship that it is.

>>2265926
They're shitting on you but you're right. Most of the users here are either terminally online NEETs or minimum wagies who can barely save enough, and even when they do have some disposable income at the end of the month they just waste it on makeup, clothes, and temu shit. An average LC user's retirement plan is to marry a Nigel KEK.(derailing)

>>2265914
look up OSINT Poland, got you covered. stick to FB and insta as much as you can, poles use it most often.

>>2265926
Kindly fuck off

>>2266019
you are comparing oranges to apples here. Wtf does saving has to do with snooping lol? You and that anon can keep moralfagging but this thread has useful info that any women can use especially for her Nigel.

I tried to use Jellyfin and Emby first but couldn't get it to connect on other devices like my phone. I also use a VPN which complicates matters. Then I tried Plex and somehow it worked so I stuck with it even though I had to pay $5. If Plex goes to shit then I'll try the other ones again.

>>2206763
I have a Terramaster NAS. I swapped to OS to be Unraid, which I did pay for a key to use, but it's super convenient and user friendly compared to a traditional Linux server. Everything is in containers so you just use their app store, grab a container and just edit the configuration. That initial setup of the OS may be a bit more work than some nonnies want though. I've used both Plex and Jellyfin on it, but Jellyfin is better cause it's truly free. I've also got it set up with a VPN, private torrent tracker, and sonarr/radarr - which means I can seamlessly request media and it will autodownload and add it to Jellyfin. It's an investment to get it all set up, but it's great.

>>2212581
nona your setup sounds like my absolute dream, so thanks for the inspo. i really need more storage so i'm looking at NAS options atm instead of my current hdd. and i guess there is no harm in trying jellyfin in addition to my plex server so i can compare.
>more work than some nonnies want though
all part of the fun…

Any nonnies know a good tool for scraping tweets in November 2024? I used to use GetOldTweets, which died so I moved to SNScrape which is refusing to work too now even though github claims it should work as long as I use certain versions of python.

Any nonas here with an AWS certification here or the like? I am currently studying for the AWS Developer Associate (DVA-C02) exam. Honestly I don't care about Cloud and I doubt the cert would help on a resume or anything but I may get a bonus if I manage to get it so that's why I decided to try for it. lol

I pray that you and your mom are safe and away from the financial clutches of that loser ASAP.
>>2235594
praying for you anon

unfortunately, he can. he has a 1/4 share in this house, and he’s also powerful with connections to lawyers. so i think only luck, persistence and patience will help us to get out of this stupid mess of a situation.
>>2235594
sending you lots of prayers! i am hopeful you can find some peace and happiness soon.

thank you very much nonas, i appreciate it a lot

My dog is very sick. He's such a sweet boy and there were a few times where he seemed to be getting better but this morning he is worse. Please, it would mean the world to me if nonas could pray for him to get well and outlive me. Everything has gone even more to shit the last few months. I don't normally do this but I can't take it anymore.

>>2266101
I pray for the baby's health and for him to get better soon! May every cuddle you give him heal him little by little and make him feel better. All good things to him and no more worries for you

Eu que ando no círculo maid café, J fashion, cosplay etc de São Paulo as vezes fico meio unhé que não tem mais meninas dessas por aqui falando de fofoca ou só querendo desabafar dos Vevecos que vemos por aí.

Inclusive picrel. Que fim levou Fê Galvão? Nunca mais vi elas pelos meus círculos

>>2261096
Amém, os "cosplays" dela sempre foram zzzzz
Eu sinceramente só parei de ligar pra essa cena, preguiça

>>2261096
Última vez q ouvi falar dela estava vendendo nudes no onlyfans. Acho que só caiu na obscuridade

Ontem eu entrei num uber e o motorista tava escutando no rádio um cara falar sobre como as perspectivas são negativas que no cenário atual não tinha como não ser, mas que não estamos vivendo o caos que vivemos no início do ano. Eu pensei que ele tava falando de Brasília, era sobre o Vasco. Fã de futebol é muito emocionado, não dá pra levar a sério.

Amo que ele chama de comunista Sarney, Alckmin e FHC. Ele foi incompetente bem do jeito que eu esperaria de terrorista brasileiro.

My Biology teacher used to make jerky out of deer and let us eat it. One time, he brought in jerky made from some mystery substance. He later revealed the mystery jerky was made from his wife's placenta. My high school teachers were not afraid of potential lawsuits clearly

>>2265494
Nah I would've thrown a chair

>>2265494
Did your teachers name happen to be Kristian or Louis?

>>2265494
What the fuck.

>>2265488
Kek they enforced something similar at my middle school. Like if you were caught trying to defend yourself against your bully such as hitting them back it would automatically land you in trouble. They basically want you to be a spineless retard who can’t stand up for themselves bc “muh fire with fire”. Anti-bullying campaigns were a mistake.

>>2265327
Samefag (jannies i know how to repost but don't feel like it kek) this reminded me of a screenshot of some book that was teaching doctors how patients of certain races had "higher pain tolerance" and how some races "over dramatize", weird shit like that

Doctors and nurses are often either born emotionally bereft or made that way. They're egotistical and think their jobs make them God, quite often. People who trust the medical industry are insane to me.

>>2265350
Some of the absolute meanest girls from my highschool went on to become nurses…
I used to online date too and doctor quickly became a redflag. Ive met exceptions but healthcare seems to attract psychos for some reason.

The main reason I get mad at porn thots or e girls is they always run out of money. Bitch how? Some of them make millions and then you find out a few years later they're broke because they spent their money in the dumbest way trying to out flex each other. 10k would change my life. Like damn it if you're going to show your pussy on the internet you may as well get enough money to retire.

>>2265397
Being an e-thot and having bad financial habits are both comorbidities of being retarded
