Why do american feminists think that choosing stereotypical feminine hobbies (like knitting, crocheting) and jobs is somehow revolutionary?
The reality is that 99% of the population will look down upon you and will think of you as a stupid npc woman.
Feminine hobbies are inherently stupid (otherwise men would claim them) and janitorial.
Choosing a feminine profession is even worse, nobody will respect you and you will live in poverty for the rest of your life.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

No. 1456210

>>1456209
The fuck anon? There's a reason why these hobbies are disrespected and it's not because they're useless or bullshit. It's because women are into them. If women were massively into programming it would be considered useless and "janitorial" too. And that's based on a real example kek

Yeah, anon needs to pull their head out of their ass. Programming is a good example, now entirely a toxic bro club but originally it was mostly female. Men shoehorn their way into any profitable female professions and take over, the reality is a woman can excel at any role, particularly technical roles. "women's hobbies" and jobs are simply the ones men deem not profitable enough to bully us out of. Watch if there was some inane revival of knitting where all the dumbass NFT get rich quick scheme bros figured out a way to monetize it, suddenly it would be something only galaxy brains can do (because they are doing it)

Good afternoon nonners, here's my stupid question: is it normal for the flow of your period to change?
For example, my last few periods were quite heavy with some clots (but not insane bleeding or lots of clots). However, I just received this months period a few days early and I had absolutely no cramping and a very light flow.
Is this normal? I'm guessing there just wasn't as much lining to shed this month, if that's even how it works?

Do any other anons have experience with being objectified abroad based on their origin, but not expecting it? I always knew "foreign" girls were fetishised based on their ethnicity, such as East-Asians, South-Americans, or even Mexicans for Americans. However, I never knew it even applied to me, which was of course naive. I spent a semester abroad in the USA and experienced so much blatant fetishisation, it was remarkable. Everything was related to me being European. I have a typical Nordic appearance of blonde hair and blue eyes, so I received a lot of comments to relating to how "exotic" I am..??? I laughed at them and said I am not Carribbean or anything, so how am I exotic… When guys complained that I wasn't into slapping and choking during sex, I said it's because most normal women want love, not pain. He said "no, it's just 'causs you aren't American." ……. Finally, because I was an international student, I made friends with other girls who came from abroad. The girls from East Asia told me how when I come to visit their country, I may be approached by men on the street and I should avoid them like the plague. Vice versa, I told them about how they should be wary of guys here and their treatment of how they are foreign. I know women get objectified based on anything, whether they are from abroad or not, but this theme was something I experienced a lot around. I'd love to hear about your experiences and thoughts

I ordered early on in the month and decided to escalate a claim because they have missed the Christmas deadline, and I just don't want to deal with this anymore.

Is it even worth getting surgery to correct my vision considering that I’m one of the few people who actually likes and prefers to wear glasses? I’ve worn glasses since I was in elementary school so I’m used to it and never found it an inconvenience (save for a rare handful of times when I forgot where I placed them after coming out of the shower). My eyesight is pretty bad (-5.50 in both eyes) so my only real want in getting corrective surgery is to sort of “reset” my eyes since I know your vision can begin to deteriorate again after surgery, rather than wanting perfect or near perfect vision. Even if I got the latter for life, I’d probably still just wear glasses without any prescription kek. My glasses tend to be expensive since I get a few add ons + high index lenses so that was my main incentive, and I think in my city the average cost is about $4-6k for both eyes depending on the type of surgery, and I’m not entirely sure if the costs would beat getting an eye exam every two years+cheap glasses online. I’m also very fearful of being a rare case of a massive fuck up kek. Have nonnies here had lasik/prk/icl? What are your thoughts/experiences with it?

I was also considering surgery (my eyes are probably even worse by now) but after reading online about how the surgery works and other people's experiences I'm not so sure anymore. I'm afraid eye surgery fucks up your eyes somehow. It doesn't actually "reset" your eyes, it just destroys your eye muscles in a way that's "good". Some people start deteriorating again or begin to have weird visual "effects" with poor lighting. You also can't do it more than once or twice usually.

Lasik and the flap cutting really freaks me out! I was looking more into PRK today because an athlete I follow said it was the only one she qualified for, and it uses a laser so no cutting. I didn't know about the destroying eye muscles thing though! I've sort of been skimming through how the procedure works but I don't get the real nitty gritty of it all. I'll look into it more!

No. 1457662

My eyes were really bad, like I was legally blind without glasses. I got it at 25 year old and I've been very happy with it.
Downsides: I can no longer see at night, especially in high contrast situations. So if it's night and everyone has their headlights on, I'll go five below the speed limit in the right lane or else I just won't drive. The light from the headlights seems to take up the entirety of my vision and I can't see anything but. I have heard that I can wear glasses to correct this, but I didn't pay all that money for nothing so I won't. However, there's also a daily drop I can do for life (CanC or something) but I'm lazy.
Upsides: no dirty or scratched glasses, can swim or shower on a lark while seeing everything, I can wear swimming googles without paying out the nose for prescription ones, and they actually corrected my vision to better than average (20/15).

No. 1457862

Because the definition of asexual is someone who doesn't experience sexual attraction to others, which doesn't necessarily make them unable to feel physical pleasure derived from sexual acts (especially solo). Whether you think having sex while not being at least minimally attracted to the other person makes no sense is another thing, I'm just explaining their rationale.

So asexuals just think everyone is ugly? Too many different things fall under asexual, there’s completely sex repulsed, simply no libido, wanting a romantic relationship but no sex, having a relationship AND sex (so just being normal??).

I'm a burgerfag but I would assume it's the same in Europe… I'm pretty sure most, if not all, glasses shops will have an optometrist there who will do eye exams. Go in, say you'd like to get your prescription checked and get some glasses. They bring you in, the doc will do the eye exam, and then you'll go and pick out the frames. Some places take a few hours to get you your glasses, my local optometrist always takes like a few days or a week but he's also not a chain store so. Not sure about the exchange policy tbh, but if they don't already give you your prescription info, ask for it so you can shop online for some frames because it'll probably be massively cheaper than in store.

How do you maintain a professional job?
My current day job is very easy but pays minimum wage. I graduated from a well-known university in my country and had good grades, but after graduating I couldn't keep a job in my field because it was so overwhelming.

I think some people are meant for certain things, and you haven't found it yet. It's great you studied something if you were interested in it and not for the money, because you can get burnt out. I actually accomplished much of what I wanted and pursuing other passions and careers, and I didn't even finish school. I traveled and lived abroad, learned languages, worked with children. I also make music and write casually, as well as sports, but I do those since young. And I did some massage therapy to make money on the side so now I am getting certified and will work at a spa. I'm also going for my private pilots license.

My point is there's a whole world out there, if you aren't comfortable in your surroundings, change them. I can advice you how to use your education or new paths to take if you have any idea, if not why not just search until something interests you and try it.

I studied marketing. I enjoyed my program and participated in related student orgs, but I guess I didn't know to much about the real world because I never had a job before graduating. My parents didn't allow me to work. After university, I've had several jobs in the field working at both corporations and small agencies too, but I've been fired from all of them. I've had conflicts with a couple of my managers over projects, but usually I was just let go with no clear reason.
Longest time I had a professional job was 1.5 years. My current job is remote data entry. I've been doing it for the past 3 years but it's pretty much a dead end job. I get bonuses every quarter for good performance, but have never had a raise. I feel like the only reason why I've had this job for so long is because I'm not in an office and directly interacting with people. My boss usually communicates with me via email. I rarely get a call from him.
Overall I feel stuck and my parents make me feel like a failure. I just wonder if my brain is broken or something and how to fix it.

I think it comes down to what you've said, that he's not a good interviewer and his audience is often retarded, taking everything said in his podcast as gospel. Being a bad interviewer, inviting highly controversial people and never fact checking them, just letting them speak freely without any difficult questions makes him seem like he's endorsing what they say, and his audience is just as unlikely to ever double check anything, people will hear that someone says that idk, vaccines cause autisms, retardo joe rogan will just nod or encourage the guest to speak more and some people will blindly believe it.

I’m being deadly serious anons: what is wrong with me?
I am a husbandofag and I fall head over heels in love with one character at a time. It’s always a character I deeply relate to. I begin to skinwalk the character, changing my appearance to look like them and superimposing their life/experiences/relationships onto my own. Everything I go through is processed and contextualised through the lens of my husbando. I live in varying states of fantasy and I’m self aware enough to laugh at myself for it, but when I reflect on everything I remember how much it contributed to my suicide attempts. I get deeply saddened and I hate myself whenever I can’t match a quality that my fixation has. It makes me mutilate myself because I feel unlovable if I can’t be like the person I’m modelling myself after.
This is shameful behaviour on my part but this has happened with a real person once before too, and I ended up stalking him and his family. For 6 years I wore the clothes he wore, spoke how he spoke, and pursued an academic career just to get close to him. I got 3 degrees, wormed my way into being his colleague and eventually his research. Then I latched on to a husbando instead and instantly lost all interest in him, tried to kill myself, and never returned to study/teaching.
I don’t have an identity of my own. I have been doing this since I was 12; I am 30 now. I joke that I’m kinnie trash because it’s the closest word I have to describe my experiences. What is this?

Thanks for being honest. I may bite the bullet and ask around because I really like this guy and I’d regret it immensely if I didn’t give it a shot. I’m not entirely inexperienced and he knows this (I’ve been in two relationships before and have dated a bit previously), but this is the first person I’ve been seeing who I didn’t either know as a friend first or meet through good friends, which I suppose is why I’m a little uncertain as to what to do.

Birth control questions..

Should I be on birth control?
I'm not currently active but if I am in a relationship again, unfortunately most men won't wear condoms and won't be careful. My period is inconsistent so it's hard to track fertility. I don't want to alter my hormones and affect my health in a bad way, I struggle to swallow pills and don't want the daily commitment, and I don't want to insert anything because it's painful and medicine is sadistic against women. So I think pills and iud are out. Does anyone know about the patch, ring, shot, or implant? I will also talk to a doctor about it when I decide, but I am a bit clueless now and want to think about it carefully. I have never been on birth control before.

There are plenty of anons here like that. I would say talk to a doctor, perhaps a female one if you're uncomfortable about it still.

I've been on the pill for issues with my cycle and not for the titular reason, and while my experience won't be the same as everyone else, I have never had an issue with "nasty pimples".

The implant is also hormone based, avoid it if you don't want to fuck them up.
This is why I don't date, contraception is anxiety inducing, the only kind of men I'd accept to have sex with would be sterile or sterilized ones

It's up to you. Personally I would take the pill if I was in an active sexual relationship with a man because I don't like pregnancy scares.

I didn't mind taking the pill, you get in the habit and it doesn't feel like any more of a commitment than brushing your teeth. I liked the person control it gave me; I could stock up and start/stop whenever I wanted. I have an IUD now and while I like it a lot for specific personal reasons having to do with PCOS, the fact that I have to go to a doctor to remove it does bother me in the back of my mind and it always has. I don't have weight or acne problems (any more so than my sisters who aren't on bc) but that's just me. I did find that certain pills seemed to affect the size of my breasts and hips but it fluctuated; I read this has something to do with the way estrogen affects fat cells (fyi my breasts and hips are smaller on hormonal bc, which is kind of a bummer).

I'm afraid of the shot, I hear too much negative feedback about it from women in my life. If I was in an abusive marriage and needed a secret birth control method I would get it but other than that, no.

I think if anyone tells you bc has no side effects or risk they are lying, and if anyone tells you it's definitely going to give you cancer and "ruin" your hormones they are also lying. Talk to your doctor and if they're dismissive of your concerns talk to a different doctor.

also: I would make sure he gets tested for STDs before we ever have sex (I really don't want HPV, not to mention the major ones). You shouldn't sleep with someone who "won't" wear a condom, in my opinion, especially if you haven't seen their STD test results. It's not being a kill-joy to insist on condoms & STD test, it is an important health precaution and frankly the guy can fuck right off if he doesn't want to do it, he's probably nasty & diseased and I would talk shit about him 100%.

No. 1458362

>>1458299
No you shouldn't. Unless you have health issues that birth control alleviates, then you have no reason to be on it. Most men won't wear condoms because most men are careless degenerates - however from experience I can confirm that there are a very small percentage of males out there that eagerly wear condoms without you even having to suggest or say anything about it. That's because they are not retarded and also don't want children.
Stay off BC unless you really need it health-wise. There are an insane amount of side effects that come with using it, and I'm not talking acne or weight gain or feeling a little moody. It can, and has, fucked women up for years.

No. 1458365

>>1458362
Samefag, at the end of the day there are of course going to be women that have had no issues with being on it but imo hormones are nothing to be fucked with unless it's medically necessary. Don't feel like at some point you need to be on it because men throw tantrums about condoms - if he's not eagerly wanting to use protection for himself, he is not a man you should be having sex with. More men should be sterilised anyway.

You don't need to do 8 step shit everyday. But you should do weekly masks, and monthly treatments if you want. I wash my face with warm water every morning and night, hot if I take a bath and steam in the shower. I use facewash sparingly bc it can irritate skin, get a gentle one. I use a clay mask twice a week. I use a cariety of creams but only one at a time. Sometimes I use serums or essense but it makes little difference. I used to live in Korea which has a big industry, tried a lot of products, I can only recommend a few based on what worked for my sensitive skin. I also do not wear makeup regularly.

Skinfood has the most gentle facewash
Innisfree has great masks, I use clay mask
Both brands have nice creams like green tea, honey etc but I don't use daily
Snail cream is really great for eyes

Try to get ACE vitamins for your skin
Aloe, honey, clay also great
Chemical peels are alright

Well it's both easy and difficult, especially if you are just starting. You have to get used to being on camera, everything is live so watch what you say and do. Sites have rules and braindead moderation so ppl get banned randomly, only the top people tend to get away with it. A lot if bans are bots automated and you usually don't hear back right away. Appeals don't work either. Be careful.

Best stream sites are Twitch and Tiktok. Twitch you just need small stats to get monetized but you can always put donations or outside links to earn money. Monetized means people can pay you through twitch itself but they take a cut, donations are yours (aha taxes) Streamers are live 4+ hrs. You need an audience and you have to stand out or have streamer friends to get noticed. Big streamers pay people to promote them, they have paid services to increases viewers, more viewers is more ad money, and the site only
promotes top streams so everyone with money does this, many have 0 viewers and earn nothing. You need to talk to chat, if not be visually very appealing.

Tiktok is way easier to get viewers, people like weird things, stream is pushed by likes but you can pay to promote. But viewer count doesn't earn money, only subs and gifts, and it is way harder to earn money on lives alone. I think lives are to promote videos for creator fund, so post videos and lives bring followers. Lives are shorter.

I earned way more on twitch, I had way more viewers on tiktok.

I ran out of space.

I mostly sit and chat with people on twitch, showing my legs, a lot of people came for that casual chat. I gamed with people, walked around, danced many things but the viewers did not come as much as just being legs, outside, chatting. Most money was one or two guys subbing and donating, then bits and ads a smaller number. My viewers told me I am often on in the background, or they just came home from work or school, they are lonely, it really is parasocial over there.

Tiktok I am as weird as I can be and I get thousands of viewers, but very little money in gifts. I actually do well by not talking to anyone. Everyone has a character they play, it's more creative.

This is straight up not true and he knows it, just listen to people who where actually sexually abused as children and not a scientific study done by science pedos. Both girls and boys grow up markedly disturbed even if they end up functioning at a high level, aka having a good job, family or talents, they still exhibit mental health issues. Many are addicted to drugs and alcohol or have psychological illness and many in lifelong therapy. Many are so disturbed it affects their ability to parent. Many do not ever recover and have difficulties their whole life.Anyone who says this is guaranteed to be a nonce, and the fact that the right wing are so obsessed with calling the left pedos and groomers (which they are sometimes) is pure psychological projection. If JP could have a 12 year old bride, he would. If Milo could have a 12 year old boyfriend, he would.

You know I've always found this very funny because right wingers are always talking about how Le modern world is degenerate and we need to go back to "tradition" when it was more socially acceptable for moids to rape and beat their wives, and for an old scrote to rape a 13 year old girl or boy, only difference is that teen girls back then were forced to marry instead of being "sluts" and having sex before marriage. Somehow marriage makes it all acceptable I guess.

what do you mean? neoteny isn't a concept, it's just a thing. it's a biological term to mean retaining more features for developing slower. for example dogs are more neotenous than wolves, humans are more neotenous than apes. I agree men trying to say that women having childlike faces is what makes us attractive is straight up pedo shit, though. there's no reason why a woman having childlike features in one way or another would signal fertility, if anything it's the opposite, and I'm not sure why this is such a popular concept. actually creatures that are less neotenous become sexually mature a lot faster.

They see women being single at 30, with a job and their own apartment and a cat as “degeneracy”. They see White women having mixed babies as degeneracy. A child marrying a man is just “nAtUrAl”. It’s natural because she can commence a long life as an incubator and domestic servant, so she can have 10+ kids, so she can live in total ignorance and never gain the strength of mind to challenge her paedophile husbands masculinity, so that she can care for him and wipe his ass when he is old, and the kids can all be sent off into the world to be chewed up and spat out by relentlessly greedy capitalists and war criminals disguised as politicians. Working class men=canon fodder non white men=labourers, women and girls=domestic slaves and incubators. It’s a rich white mans world again.

My issue is with how they've decided to frame reality. You can look at it two ways: how closely the adults (usually female) resemble the children, or how different the adults (usually male) are. They chose the former for some reason, I think because male scientist would prefer to think of females as underdeveloped males instead of males as markedly different from the species as a whole. To think otherwise would threaten their notion that they are the default, the blueprint, and not the abnormality.

So do I, but they insidiously act like doing so is a form of oppression, which shows their god complex. They think to be on the same level as everyone else (the people supposed to be your underlings) is degradation and oppression. You’re OPPRESSING them not only of reaching the top, but being able to FEEL like they are when they’re not. If they’re not the most rewarded and congratulated and coddled person in the room, they are being denied what is rightfully theirs.

Why do people drink so much on the holidays? I understand people loosen up a bit, but holidays are the only days where I will absolutely not drink because I want to remember them and not have a headache the day after. I honestly don't understand why it's such a common practice, to me drinking (like a beer or 2, no shots) is something you do when you're watching a movie or doing something else mundane. Having one glass of wine or something is no real problem for me, I just don't get why people want to get so hammered. Especially NYE, you're with your friends, messing with firework, isn't that fun enough on it's own?

I know it's purely down to personal taste, but recommendations would be really greatly appreciated. I was also wondering, how do you know you've bought good kimchi?

My favorite is definitely cucumber, but I like them all. Aside from cucumber, my favorites are usually leafy ones (nira chives, scallion, sesame leaf, mustard leaf).

Do you think I could drain the jar I have now that is quite watery, and add some of the gochujang paste I bought?

No. 1459471

>>1459468
Only gochujang will greatly alter the taste, since in the process of making the kimchi it's added like oyster sauce or dashi, maybe something sweet like apple, ginger, etc. You could do a gochujang sauce apart from it with the aforementioned things and mix only the portion that you'll eat

This is my personal experience. I had been on the pill since I was a teenager for 10 years for extremely painful periods until it started making me suicidal right before my period would start every month. Seriously, every month without fail 2 days before my period I would genuinely feel like killing myself. I stopped taking it when I was hospitalized for a suicide attempt, and the hormone shift has fucked me. My hair started to fall out, the hair around my temples was bald. It has been almost a year for my hair to start growing back in, around 2 inches now. I don't recommend any of it, condoms work just fine and the reason they are listed as not working well is because the statistics are fucked due to people not actually using them every time. You have to use it every time like no fucking duh kek why does it even say that in picrel. Also now every time I get my period, I get cysts on my shoulders. I don't know why but this only started happening once I stopped taking the pill. Anyway that's my experience! I would never recommend a woman use anything besides a condom.

I've tried the (mini)pill, the patch, the nuvaring and with them all it came down to the exact same issue.. I went from having pretty mild and manageable mental health issues to having a whole new world of issues while on them. Being actively suicidal and in crisis. My sex drive would disappear and the relationship would be falling apart from my mental state anyway. Then the doc would say to just keep taking it for longer to see if it eventually passes. To take an antidepressant on top?

Then I ran into an issue where a family history of breast cancer and high blood pressure worried docs more than any of those psych issues ever did. Aswell as risk factors increasing with age. The only options I haven't tried yet are off limits to me anyway for health reasons. I've exhausted my options and I'm kind of relieved that the option is gone tbh.

Around what age does sitting cross legged become an issue, or just harder in general? Also, do I even have to worry about it?

Why do vegans say stuff like "dairy is cruel"? Milking doesn't really hurt cows (or any animal that can be milked I guess), also, isn't not milking them dangerous? Like, their udders will get full and heavy if they're not milked. I have the same question for wool too.

No. 1460713

>>1460712
Cows have to get pregnant to make milk, so they’re just in a cycle of getting impregnated and having their baby taken away. Wool is fine though, I think sheep wool doesn’t stop growing so they NEED to be sheared, there was a sheep who got lost and was found after a year and poor thing was so overgrown.

No. 1460714

>>1460712
To make cows to produce milk they have to give birth to calves, which are then immidately taken away from them. It's just like humans, they don't produce milk randomly on their own. They are artificially inseminated every three months.

No. 1460716

>>1460712
they are mostly referring to the conditions that most commercial dairy cows are subjected to, the places they are kept are typically extremely filthy and overcrowded, and calfs are taken from their mothers too early so the milk she produces can be bottled and sold/turned into dairy byproducts instead of going to her calf. there is also forced insemination to keep the cow pregnant and producing milk, which presents some ethical issues. the actual act of milking the cow isn't really the issue (though some vegans would disagree, but i believe they are in the minority)

No not really. Yes kind of. Your mouth is a petri dish already, the cavity-causing bacteria lives in there. You do technically pick up bacteria on your floss.

Ditto on what the other nonas said about insemination etc. Also dairy cows are killed when they stop producing, which takes 2.5-6 years. Cows don't produce milk their whole life. They aren't turned out onto a pasture to chew cud in peace, they're processed for their meat and hide as soon as they stop making milk or if they don't make enough milk.
Normal cow life expectancy is 15-25 years.

What can you do if you are resident in Europe and have US checks sent to you?

It is impossible to deposit or cash them anywhere. All the apps are US region locked. I cannot even sign up for a new prepaid debit, paypal, ingo etc all locked. Chime won't let me scan checks until I register a payroll from a US employer, I don't even live there. The checks were only sent because they were unable to wire transfer to me. I tried to open US bank locally but denied. I have no access to this money it's ridiculous, and the longer it takes the more of it gets used up renting a place until I can work. I can't survive now, I even try working online but I don't make enough. I have been trying for months guys, months to get this shit to work. The person sending checks is busy as fuck too and barely replies to me except to say every suggestion I have won't work. They are holding the money, the checks will probably expire soon. It's all inheritance money. I don't have a US bank because I have no proof of address because I don't live there. I cannot legally leave this country right now to go pick up myself. I have no family that would help.

Maybe because I am clueless but there has to be some international check scan service here right? Anything?

the thing is i don't believe its misophonia. i say this because i have experienced misophonia before, and it feels like an intense annoyance at stuff like chewing. this other thing to me feels like motion sickness, it's a deep internal dread and nausea. when i look at the tide approaching and receding, i feel very deeply that something is wrong and I have to let myself get distracted by something else so that it won't bother me anymore.
i don't know if it gets worse with stress, but it does get worse if im already overstimualted. but i don't believe it's misophonia, which is annoying bc thats the only thing google gives me results for lol

Have you experienced something traumatic that gave you a sense of repetition? Things looping like that freak me out and make me uncomfortable due to a traumatic event. I have OCD as well and I think my brain really kicked in the OCD when I was dissociating and it found comfort in repetitive things, but it only reminds me of trauma so I freak out when repetition occurs in nature. Could it be something similar?

Pretty sure you have to talk to this person more. They aren't sending it to you in a currency you can use. Tell them a USD paper check is useless to you. They can cancel the check and wire the money to your bank account, a US check isn't currency everywhere.

If all else fails get a lawyer and make them talk to the lawyer handling the estate of whoever died (RIP).

When I had a chance to be in the US I tried every bank and was rejected, and ended up with Chime because I thought I understood it would work abroad, but only the card works, and I cannot add money to it. I also thought I would get my residence with id and bank here sooner. So now I am in purgatory in a way

i want to say singapore because it's a nice (or at least known as) nonpolluted country and it's walkable, so the kids can have fun as opposed to in the USA (plus americans and their guns and unsafe schools. no thanks). i'm also southeast asian so i'm somewhat familiar with singapore more and thus won't be facing racism in that regard, but singapore and UK are both islands so they have depressing gray skies… my only concrete answer is definitely not the USA.

I'm American and already don't want to have kids here because of the gun epidemic. I would probably choose the UK only because I would rather them get stabbed than shot and it would be easier for us to fit in the UK. While I don't know too much about Singapore, it seems more like a place I would travel to than a place I would choose to live in. If I have to be frank, I don't think it would be comfortable for me there because of my race.

I don't know much about Singapore, but between the UK and the US, definitely the UK. My fiancé could get a job in the US and make a shitload of money but we both refuse to live there, more me than him. American society is so brainwashed, consumerist, degraded, perverted. Religion is too prevalent, from politicians wanting to ban abortions because of it to doctors making circumcision a norm.
I know UK isn't great either, but at least there it would be easier to immigrate to a decent country in europe later on if it gets too shitty.

Singapore or UK. Probably second. I don't think that the USA is safe enough for children. I don't like that the remaining options are islands, if the glaciers melt in the nearest future half of the land will go under the water. The UK has more options for medical tourism and is closer to me mentality-wise. I know nothing about Singapore except its wealth and weather but living in any part of Asia IMO is not appealing. IDK how to raise a child in a foreign culture and I am pretty sure if the father is asian he won't participate in upbringing. I don't like the weather too, hot and humid, and it will get only worse.

Pharmaceutical companies are big business and medicine isn't real, I used to work for families that were in pharma companies and they said it's not real it's mostly placebo and marketing, they need people to be sick. And my family does work in government, there are photos and articles with my ggf and the bush family together, they were friends, he knew reagan family too. They have passed but I still have an uncle working in law, who worked as nepo government lawyer and now is a criminal defense lawyer. Yet whenever I say this people think I'm making it up and I get censored, I am not I just choose to maintain my privacy. My family is large so wouldn't know me, I myself am not a part of this and not even in the states anymore, but I am also ostracized. My father threatened me for saying the US was as wrong as Japan during the war for bombing them. My own grandmother tried to put me in an asylum for being sad one day, imagine if they hear me saying this. They already hate me anyway.

But my point is that I always feel like targeted in a way. I see others post nonsense conspiracy theories, or the same truths, and their videos aren't removed. I said such simple things and got violations and bans from social media, but they always tried to frame it as something else.

So I recently went to my uncle's house and I talked to my cousin about some of my exes, we know each other well and I trust him but then he began saying things like "you are definitely more on the attractive side", "you are just really fun to talk to" and "I bet a lot of girls wish they had a body like yours" and I'm feeling a bit confused.

It was a big combination of things but ultimately he wasn’t communicating a lot of fears he had and all of his feelings just exploded out and he very impulsively broke up with me. He’s extremely conflict avoidant and was just giving me passive apologies for something I wanted to have an actual talk about and ended things “before we hated each other”. I messaged him like two weeks later to try and give some closure for myself and we ended up having several talks and hang outs with a lot of mixed signals. Took a few months apart to get our heads straight and that was the first time I’d heard from him. I want him to come back but it’ll take massive changes in his side to do so.

No you can fix them, but its not as simple as quitting cold turkey, you have to retrain your brain patters essentially, believe me, I was into really fucked up and violent porn cause I had my own issues and even when I tried quitting porn, It never worked long term
by replacing my urges with more Vanilla Porn, I fixed myself

I'd go from periods of not watching porn at all(3 days) then use my pre-downloaded vanilla porn once a day for 5 days total, then I'd stop watching for 9 days and repeated the same schedule with 5 days, even when I'd fail, I would still always use the vanilla porn
eventually 9 went to 12, then to 15, to 20, then to 30, then 40 and finally after 45 I was finally healed

I’m not sure how to handle this situation without hurting my family. Maybe I’m overreacting maybe that’s my internalised misogyny speaking
>be my dad
>generally an ok dad who wants to raise us strong
>sometimes loses his temper and gets angry/violent
>would thump us with his fist whilst we hid under the covers
>shoved us at the wall
>hurt and embarrassed our low functioning autistic sibling
>used to drink a lot
>would grit his teeth and yell over minor things in public
When i was fourteen/fifteen my younger sibling was born. To another woman, who he cleaned up his act for
He doesn’t drink much these days, but occasionally gets angry. Usually controls it, and is kinder. Anyway, the other day my little sister (four) told me in tears that he had hit her really hard. I didn’t say anything to my dad, just held her whilst she cried. I didn’t see if it was just a slap on the wrist or he overreacted.
As soon as I hit fifteen I was an ‘adult’ who didn’t need to be helped. In his house it’s like im a guest/friend who must be helpful to be welcome. So I’m not a big part of the house, neither do I want to be. But I love my younger siblings. I don’t know if he was out of line because I didn’t want to probe and become an unwelcome guest, and be separated from my siblings. If his new wife finds out, she may leave. And that might make instability for my younger siblings. She keeps him in line. But if I say nothing, how do I know if my younger sister is being hurt? What if he gets worse when she grows up? I don’t want her to be hurt like that. Am I weak for not knowing how to react? I really don’t know what to do. I don’t want her confidence and joy to be crushed. I love her so much.

No. 1463476

your little sister came to you (an adult) so IMO you sort of have a responsibility to help her and at least talk to her mother. Your dad is an asshole and there’s no excuse for hitting a four year old in any way. You’re not weak for being conflicted and it sucks that they treated a 15 year old like a guest in her own home.

Just an FYI and this may or may not be something you want to do but as a grown child of abusive parents I wish someone had told me when I was 4 that it's not okay for dad to hit you and he is bad and wrong for doing that and it's not because he loves you and it's not because you did anything wrong. When you're 4 you just believe everything your parents say and it took me years to unlearn some things I was told. She may or may not remember you telling her but it couldn't hurt.

If you have any other type of flour at all you can use a little bit of it just to avoid sticking when shaping the dough. It doesn't matter that the dough is wet, dough usually raises better when slightly wetter, it's just harder to shape. I haven't baked without yeast though, so idk how it's gonna turn out with baking powder. I would try making focaccia or small pizzas if you have toppings at hand. When making pizzas you can section the dough into smaller doughs, shape them into balls and place them in the fridge in little bowls. Once they are chilled it's easier to shape them into pizza shape. Maybe some other anon who has more experience with baking powder bread has better advice. I do a lot of baking with sourdough/yeast and recommend, it's very easy once you get into it and long fermentation improves the flavor of the bread.

I would love to make a sourbread but I don't have the right cooking pans for it, I am in a rental in a small kitchen. I was going for flat bread to cook on the stovetop but now I worry it will stick.

So it's actually been resting for 25 mins and it is a bit less sticky. I will just see how this goes, if it becomes more doughy. Will post results if edible.

No. 1464230

>>1464223
Good luck anon! Thinking about it a bit more, I would say knead until you have some good gluten development. If the dough is very wet you can try the folding method like they do with sourdough, but as you're not using yeast I wouldn't let it rest for too long (25 minutes is totally fine) because it's limited how much the dough is going to raise and gluten also breaks down over time. I'm not a chemist though, I could be totally wrong lol. I'm very exited to see your results, whether edible or not, for bread science!

No. 1464233

>>1464223
As long as the pan is hot enough I think it'll be fine and you can use a tiny bit of oil. If you are putting it directly on the stovepot then that's a bit scary. I'm sorry I'll stop bothering you. I get a bit over-excited about breads.

it will change the dough slightly but if you oil your hands the dough may be easier to handle without flour.

Not an expert but in that case using the comma reads easier and looks more natural - it is clear it’s not a typo, and also reflects the emphasis you would use saying it out loud. I normally wouldn’t use it with “had had” though which is the probably the most common case of repeating a word.

I used it for a few months at the end of 2019/beginning of 2020. I live in the LA area so there was lots of girls on there with lots of different interests. Talked to quite a few but many admitted they had zero intentions of ever meeting up anyone which I can understand. During my time on there I met up with two girls (at separate times) and nothing ever came of either. The first one was nice enough but it was obvious she lied about her interests and she could tell I knew that so we wound up ghosting each other lol the second girl I actually met up with twice but the pandemic hit and she moved away which sucked because she was cool. I went to get back on there at the end of last year but I didn’t go through with it because it dawned on me that I was three years older and it wasn’t going to be the same (early twenties vs mid twenties)

how do you deal with gynaecologist appointments/pap smears when you have sexual trauma? like, how are you even meant to approach it when the thought of having a stranger inspect your vagina with a speculum just triggers all of the shit that happened to you?
my brain instantly associates penetration with pain after many uncomfortable and pressured sexual experiences by scrotes. the only thing I can handle is tampons and my own fingers, even using a dilator is emotional sometimes. I turned 25 a few days ago and I'm already getting texts from the NHS telling me to book a pap smear but it's with a nurse and i have no clue how to even handle this situation.
i know that i have to get this smear test done, but at the same time i'd rather not leave the doctors feeling violated and traumatised all over again.

No. 1465269

>>1465262
Tell 'em to fuck off. And if you ABSOLUTELY need the test, be up front, tell them what happened. They aren't mind readers and they'll probably respect you if you explain how you're feeling and why. But remind them that you're there voluntarily and if they make you feel uncomfortable, the deal's off.

No. 1465272

>>1465262
Hey nonna! Ok, so first dont be afraid to be like “hey, before we start, I am nervous and I dont know what to expect.” And then you should let them know penetration triggers you. Seriously. Just be forward. It gives the doc/nurse an opportunity to work slower or differently. They will navigate it with you.
Also, can you ask a loved one or friend to be in there with you? They dont have to see whats happening, but they could distract you with conversation.
If there is a planned parenthood or similar, go there. I find the care is kinder but that may be a singular experience.

I accidentally picked up a really cute girl with bpd but because of said bpd behaviour we are not in contact anymore. Are you supposed to go in groups? I wish I knew girls I could club with, I just want to dance like a retard.

How do I tell my close friend, who is mentally ill and in a hard spot, in the nicest way that she needs to set her own boundaries instead of expecting me to be hypervigilant of everything I do to not break them? I got into a messy fight with her where we both made bad choices due in a stressful situation, and I apparently expected too much of her when she kept saying it was ok when I asked her if it was truly ok if she did that thing. Yeah I fucked up, but I'm not her mom to hold her hand through everything.

It depends. I think most landlords would prefer to that you leave the place neutral looking i.e white washed walls. You shouldn't do renovations that you can't remove or without asking the landlord if they like it. I know sometimes you can use your own furniture and they can remove anything you don't like, then again not all land lords are reasonable.

I think it’s an interesting question. The way I understand it indigenous people have been in a country for a long ass time and have a culture that significantly differs from the majority ethnic group, but don’t have a country of their own. Some of them are nomadic. I’m not 100% sure what makes indigenous people different from other minority ethnic groups, but probably the time they’ve existed and maybe some politics. In the case of Scottish people, if Scotland wasn’t recognized as its own country and you were just part of England, you would probably be considered an indigenous people.

Planning to rent out a room in my apartment because I need the money but unsure if I should go the legal or the illegal route.

All of the people I know who rent out rooms or apartments do it illegally and avoid paying taxes and rationalize it by saying that tax authorities don't pay attention to such low amounts of money appearing on their accounts. Which makes sense. But I'd be afraid of getting a tenant who would report me. Like how do you trust them? Or do I ask them directly if they are okay with this? On the other hand, if I pay taxes, I'd lose a considerable amount of the rent and it's a ridiculously low amount in the first place.

What should I do?

There's good and bad things about both. Honestly if you can find the right person, illegal is better.

What's your tax rate that the amount you are charging will be considerably taken by taxes? If your taxes are high enough that will make a big difference, then you probably have a higher chance of being audited.
If you're just starting to think of renting a room out now, you won't have to decide about your tax situation until next year in 2024 when you have to file.
I highly doubt someone would report you. If you're renting it illegally, they rented it illegally. This happens all the time and unless you somehow screw this person over or they're a shitbag, they'll probably appreciate the cheap deal you got them. For all apartments, much more so if you are sharing a living space, you should be more concerned with where you will advertise and how you will background check this person.

Should I suggest to my mom (53 years old) that she set up an online dating profile?
she separated a year ago after a nearly 20 year long marriage. Since then, she's been dating coworkers which I think sucks because they're bad looking appearance-wise and also just bad for her work environment (case in point when she broke up with one, she declined a promotion and change of shift/department which would've improved so much for her only because he would work there too). She's also been in an off-and-on relationship with my step-dad since they separated. I snapped a while ago and told her he was just using her and she took my advice and has put more distance. I guess I feel bad about that and should've stayed out of it but it just really angered me she would just let him continue to take advantage of her. She has recently started dating another coworker. I think she's doing it for validation, my step-dad eroded her self-esteem. Would it be a bad idea? I have no clue what online dating for people in their 50's is like but i think it'd be nice for her to have more men to choose from etc, and go on nice dates and so on. idk

I've seen how she's handled the other men she's been dating though so i trust she'll handle men from dating apps similarly well too. it's the quality of the men she's been seeing that bothers me, i think she can do much better and the chances of finding someone better would increase with a dating app instead of the limited amount of male coworkers she has

I don't think you should but it seems like your mom has much bigger problems than dating she needs to address. I see this a lot with women; I don't wanna judge cuz I have my own issues, though it's like women with bad self-esteem issues often flipflop from one man to another and this is a self-eating process because it's more likely than not being with men will erode her self-esteem. Most women don't find a man that actually enriches her soul and life, even if the momentary hits of validation are addictive.

I have regularly seen other women change, even in their twilight years…even if they were dating since they were 12 to 40, many end up finding that after months of deprioritizing men and chasing other interests they feel massive amounts of relief because what ailed them was feeling like they had to be a commodity perpetually in the rat race–which ironically puts them in an even worse place to be dating. It might not seem so, but as people, we adapt to our circumstances and we aren't as rigid as we seem.

My housecat does not have any of his shots. My brother who was the one who got him refuses to take him to the vet and does not want me to take him either. He was a neet and only started working recently so i guess he wants to save more? or is just really irresponsible. just says he will but not yet. i think he should have enough to take him to the vet and give him his shots. anyways, because he doesn't have his shots he shouldn't be outside. buuuuuuuuut, i've been taking him outside with a little harnest on and leash when my brother isn't here, and he cries horribly at certain times of the day if i dont take him. I was doing pretty well ignoring him but today i felt bad. he got a bath last night and he was a good boy, so i thought going outside this morning would be a fitting reward. soon as we go outside, he drank out of a container that had rainwater that had been sitting there for a couple of days. just a few laps because i pulled him away as fast as i could. maybe he didn't get to drink at all but he might've. now the question - he's not going to die from this, is he? should i go out and buy milk?

Statistically, you'll be fine. The only things we vaccinate cats again (rabies, FeLV, and FVRCP) are diseases that are passed from other cats or directly through bites. There are two water parasites I can think of, but your cat is more likely to get them from eating a bug he found inside than from drinking water outside.

It would be a better scam to say they you never got them. Even if the delivery guy takes a picture of them on your porch, Amazon is usually really forgiving about porch pirates.

I can answer your second question, nonny! But only partially. There's a couple of different methods to circumcision, but I'm only familiar with the plastibell method. It's essentially this:
>Apply topical anesthetic
>Use forceps to gently stretch foreskin away from head of the penis then skin is snipped
>Foreskin is stretched over sterile plastic cup
>Ring on plastic is secured with a string to stop blood flow
>Plastic cup stays on for a few days until foreskin falls off naturally

Very oversimplified, but that's more or less it lol.

Ohh that's a good idea! I worry they might be stricter because it's just a high value item.

I have a few rare games up that follow a similar trend…extremely high traffic for other postings, mine is invisible. I have all the descriptions up, etc.

Depends on how big it is but if it fits into a DVD/CD case it's cool (unless you play them all the time kek). If you have childhood dolls left you can hide it in their heads. Also if you have multiple bags, put one you don't wear in your closet and bury it under some clothes.

Don't put them in your bedroom or at the entrance of your place. Most of the time, they try to open the door when you are here and grab what they can. If they go outside, they will try the bedroom because that's where people put their jewelries and money. Also don't hide anything in books or something too obvious like that because if they find something, they will destroy everything to find something else hidden the same way.

Does anyone else just have a ton of bad memories? It's been hard to enjoy life because I get anxious a lot between times of trying to survive and times of boredom and lacking motivation and lonliness to times of too much drama from other people. I've gotten close to what I think is ideal but never there.

I never like where I am living. Either it's too noisy or if it's quiet it's far away from regular things to do, I love to be at home but I need a chance to go out. Two it's easy to meet people but hard to meet quality people and have friends longterm. Three I either find work unsatisfying or I can't find any at all. I have switched to online work so I have freedom to not talk to anyone at least.

But the part that bothers me is thinking about all the thousands of times I have been miserable, and it's not really my fault but I ended up in a lot of situations that were way worse than expected because I didn't have any other options, and so I suffered. Meeting shitty people doing shitty work staying in shitty places and I tried to make the best of it but it kills me I could not control those times to be better. And when I made effort to meet people and make memories sure it worked sometimes but a lot of people are shit and miserable to be around and it drags me down. Like I might be in a tough spot but I try to be positive and I meet people and realize they are sucking the life out of me. I start to hate myself until I get away and feel happy on my own.

I feel burdened by these and wish I could forgot, all the shitty people I regret meeting, all the bullshit they create from low iq and bad character, all the ridiculousness of the world. It started so young for me too.

Is it in bad taste to not attend a close family members funeral because I can’t afford the travel costs?? My aunt whom I was close with is about to be taken off life support and my family is making funeral arrangements. The cost to fly across the country for this funeral on such short notice would completely drain my savings and leave me financially fucked. It feels terrible to not attend but I don’t know how I would be able to without being even more stressed out on top of grieving this loss. I think my family would be split on understanding and being hugely offended. I just don’t know what to do and it feels awful.

Am I stupid for feeling this way? I feel bad because there's just so many people who can start social media, seem to effortlessly make content and get popular really quickly.

I'll assume by 'nice' you mean light, short vids covering basic history.
Tasting History and Townsends are staples for the history of food, I like to fall alseep to them sometimes. History Tea Time with Lindsay Holiday is a channel focused on royal history, plus some inetersting series about womens' history. If you like typical "history-history" (scrote history) The Great War and Oversimplified cover a lot of conflicts and general era timelines, with The Great War having an episodic structure and going into detail about smaller wars over the course of ww1/2. Extra Credits has some good stuff, too.
There are history channels that shitpost a lot and i wouldn't call their content purely educational, like Karolina Zebrowska (the only fashion historian yt-er i geniunely like and dont find annoying), AlternateHistoryHub and KnowledgeHub. If you were to really stretch the definition of history youtubers, Sam O'Nella's channel has some vids about small historical personalities/events that you would usually find on a Wiki binge or presented as a reddit-y "TIL" fact.

So I was having a discussion about a piece of media I like and what’s good about it with someone in a group chat, when another friend in the chat joins and derails the conversation by talking about why he HATES the thing we were talking about and listing reasons it’s “bad” (personal opinions on tropes and character archetypes) forcing the upbeat discussion to turn into us having to defend ourselves and having to convince him to allow us to like it. Having us basically just being on the defensive and ruining the gushing session we were having. Would that be considered bad manners, or is it totally acceptable for him to show his opinion like that? I feel slighted by it but I don’t know if I’m in the right to feel that way when he was staying his opinion like we were doing. Regardless he has a right to his opinion of course but surely there’s a time and a place for it? What do you guys think?

Would it be silly to create a website for providing information for expats but also for monetization purposes?

I see foreigners who moved to my country asking around on various forums about things like how to naturalize their driving licenses and other things about living in this country.

I consider a crush to be a romantic infatuation you have on someone. Since they usually arise without you consciously doing anything, having one itself isn't cheating. Keeping it hidden is expected, as you shouldn't disrespect your partner by being like, "Hey, you know that person in my work? I have a major crush on them. They are far more attractive to me than you." even if it's true. Telling someone you have a crush on them while you're in a relationship is out of bounds and acting on it in any way counts as cheating.

I think it could say something about the relationship you're in now, like there's a subconscious need that isn't being met and your mind is scoping out others who could fulfill that need. It could be something small or big.
I developed a crush on an internet friend I would talk almost daily to for 5 years while we were both in a long term relationship, it basically grew into a crush 4 years in.
My relationship with my boyfriend at the time was a lesson learned, he didn't want to do anything and would spend majority of his time drinking and smoking and sleeping or eyes glued to a video game and he would talk about how he hated the world and everyone was against him almost daily. I felt like I couldn't open up to him often.
From my perspective, my internet friend was someone who would go out and do things every weekend, we were into similar things, he was a doctor, he owned a house with acres of land, he briefly talked of his plans of becoming a father in a few years. I basically admired something I was not going to have with my boyfriend at the time. When I broke up with my boyfriend, I let my friend know of the feelings I had for him and I wanted to get them off my chest to be able to move on and we're good now. I have a current boyfriend who meets the expectations I have and even more. Will another crush develop in the future? Who knows. But I've learned to be more communicative with my boyfriend, or rather, he has the ability to communicate and take feedback, which is crucial.

As a senior GD, you're asking a complicated question here, but that's ok and normal. Idk if this helps but I started out with learning from software tutorials from youtube just to get comfortable with the tools. Then moved on to graphic design theory like the gestalt principles, advanced typography, graphic design history, grid and layout systems, and learning to train your eye for design, etc. You can find most of these things on YouTube or skillshare or in books. When you're out and about look at all the design around you–billboards, packaging, social media ads, everything. Question why these designs work, ask yourself how they are using type, color, and/or imagery to convey their message, and put yourself in the position of their audience and think about what the design is trying to make you do and if it's doing that successfully. Questioning these things help train your eye, aesthetic, and make you a better designer

This channel is pretty good for beginners. Start with this video since the layout is the foundation of your work. Then work your way up with colors, fonts, textures etc. Your design needs to be clear first and foremost since it's only existing as to relay a message clearly to the viewer, whether is relaying someone's profession and contact on a business card or promoting a political agenda on a poster. There's a reason in a lot of places graphic design departments in schools are also called graphic communication. Graphic design has a lot of rules, when to use bold text, when to use sharp edges, strong colors etc, depending on what it's about. Look up text hierarchy, visual hierarchy. And don't be afraid to take inspiration from existing designs if there's something specific you're working on.

How old is "too old" for university/college where you're from? From a social standpoint, i mean. Making connections and all.

You'll be 1000% fine. It starts to get weird at thirty, and for bachelor's, forty is pretty much the hard limit where you'll have nothing in common with your peers. But 20? You'll be able to buy beer in a year and that's a valuable skill to 18 and 19 year olds.

It's true that at in your mid 30's it becomes a bit scarce to find someone your age but until then you're fine. In a uni setting, it can be really hard to tell a difference between a 19 year old and a 25 year old in my opinion. I was 20 when I swapped degrees and I had 0 issues getting on with students younger than me, I did have the advantage of providing them with general university knowledge though. Don't worry about it, it's never too late.

Apparently there's a big debate about her name being feasibly realistic even among Chinese and Korean speakers in the fandom. So there's no definite answer.
I think it still sounds stupid, especially the way it's written. I don't think JKR was racist (as far as i remember nothing about the character was stereotyped, but again, i was 8), I think she was veeeery misguided for just making up a Chinese-sounding name out of thin air

I dont even care about JKR in the 90s since it was harder to access the internet, but saying she wrote the book for normal people makes you sound like a racist, ignorant fuck. Making up names based on zero prior research about another race is racist or at least a microaggression. Might as well call a black person unga bunga and be okay with it because it happened in the 90s, which was apparently so long ago, people cant bring it up.

I like JKR and think she doesnt deserve any hate for her stance on women's rights because it's very important (and she isnt wrong about the trans agenda. I applaud her for that), but saying shit like this is really gross. She wrote mildly racist stuff back in the 90s and it people can point that out without hating on her or canceling her. It has nothing to do with 'social media brainrot.' Most of her fans are in their 20s and 30s with families of younger children now. I have a daughter now of Chinese descent myself.
The anon asked a simple question and a bunch of anons answered her fine, but you were the only one making it racist to even ask or answer. Saying shit like she wrote books for 'normal people' or a 'normal audience' is racist af, as if Asian people didnt exist back in the 90s britain.

It could be dehydration if you literally didn't drink anything. Could also be anemia or low blood pressure.

Can someone intentionally cause themselves heart failure enough to deem them a candidate for a heart transplant?
I have a personal lolcow who is known for trend shopping to try to gain an audience and they seem to plateau after a short while so she moves onto the next trend. She tried jumping on the gender trend, she tried jumping on the food friend, the fandom gif designer trend, and she seemed to have gotten a following having an umbrella autoimmune disorder that doctors can't really pinpoint so she puffs up every other week. All her photos have about 10 hashtags about whatever trend she's decided. She's had surgeries, her tattoos are medical themed, some internet handles are based around being sick. I dunno, I haven't really kept up with munchies.
Do they go as far as killing themselves in some way? Is that common?

idk about the heart thing but yes munchies do incredibly dangerous things to themselves in order to go to/stay in the hospital. i've heard of people who have tubes going inside their body (sorry i don't know the technical word for this, not feeding tubes but tubes that go into their chest and other places) putting really gross shit inside the tubes (sometimes literal shit) to give themselves infections that could kill them so they can stay in the hospital for longer. very disturbing

Yes, several known ones died.
There's different breeds of mounchie. Some don't cause any symptoms and just lie and doctor ship.
Some induce symptoms in themselves based on which diseases they researched, some of these occasionally die because giving yourself sepsis over and over and over will eventually end badly.
Some self harm in weird ways, claim they dindu nothing, and shop around for a munchie compatible diagnosis. The main difference to type 2 is that they don't have anything specific in mind and let the doctors come up with ideas.

The types aren't as neatly separated and there's probably ones that don't fall under these but you get the idea: Yeah, they can accidentally kill themselves.

Where are we with the possibility or evidence of Dylan being a joke from a "gender critical" gay moid? Can the "FFS" just be a dumb plastic surgery since he didn't even get bolt-ons? This is a genuinely stupid question because everytime I see him it's so absurd I can't believe it. Even from a troon point of view they wouldn't say "day 200 of being a girl" because they claim they were born wrong or something.

i pretty mush never have complications with skin healing all my piercings and random cuts would heal w zero care but if it won't close on it's own kinda looks like a pussy does it need stitches or can i force it together diy?

Oh okay, makes sense. This personal cow has self harmed before, she's had an ED and would have side twitters and tumblr accounts showing her progress. She's also posted nudes on r/gowild years ago. I was skeptical about her surgeries and believing maybe she wasn't faking it, but at a point it was real because she put this upon herself. The Facebook Lives she's hosted while in the various hospital rooms she's been in have irked me.
>>1471037
Ugh that sounds so gross. I honestly can't fathom she would do something as extreme as stuffing shit in her tubes, but to do it for internet attention, I guess all morals go out the window.

If you don't know what you're doing just get stitches. This would be free where I'm from though, I'm not sure what I would recommend if it's going to bankrupt you. And get them soon because after a few days the skin hardens up and it's not an option to get them anymore and you have to take antibiotics. (source: learned this the hard way and regretted not just getting the stitches)

Get stitches, especially if you can see fatty tissue.

>Do they go as far as killing themselves in some way? Is that common?
Some do. It's usually a complication from an infection they managed to give themselves via tubes/direct lines. Some "just" stop at self harm and get unnecessary surgeries like spinal fusions or amputations.

I was convinced he was trolling in the beginning but now I’m 50/50. Part of me thinks it’s all a grift and he’s just some gay moid who only wanted to do a performance~~ not realising he was gonna get so much attention and now is too afraid to admit he isn’t a troon because he will lose everything and ruin his image. I mean, he went to the fucking whitehouse and spoke to the president kek can you imagine the collective meltdown everyone would have if he uploaded a tiktok saying it was all a lie?
The other part believes he’s just a massive misogynist with a fuck ton of internalised homophobia and conversion-therapied himself into believing he isn’t a fag but an actual woman just because he’s flamboyant and likes girly things.
If I had to bet, my money is on the later.

why should it matter what your pussy lips look like anon? only pornsick scrotes think vaginas should look smooth and plastic and not wrinkly. its just one more thing they use to make us insecure about ourselves, even though nobody should be seeing that anyway except you and the people you sleep with (who if theyre not complete assholes they shouldnt be judging you on in the first place, wtf.)
please as yourself why you feel the need to change this about yourself

So good. Bed felt roughly the same as any memory foam but the decor felt rich, the sheets were luxurious, the view was amazing, every staff member was so well dressed and groomed. At one point I called down to the front desk and asked for something because my boyfriend was vomiting and within five minutes room service was at the door with Tylenol, Pepto, and a bottle of water. Completely free.
And the gym that was part of it? Free fruit and protein bar buffet with water bottles for guests. And this was like seven years ago so it was a big deal then, but there stationary bikes had individual screen built in that streamed every service at the time. I just binged Netflix while biking. Oh and the towels were super soft and fluffy. 10/10

No man, ever, in your entire life, is going to see your pussy lips and think "This pussy's lips are too thin, I'm not going to have sex with her." and walk away. None. Therefore, it is a waste of time to be concerned about their appearance.

the artist draws parallels between the person in the picture and Dionysus(purple robes, wine, symposium pose) which is to make a statement about hedonism. The modern hedonism can be seen in a stereotypical NEET room. By putting Dionysus in there it makes a statement about self-awareness but not wanting to change your own ways. Symposium where social affairs and yet here we have modern Dionysus drinking wine satisfied
in their own company. This can both work as a self love image or a loneliness/self isolation image.
If we go with self love: Embracing your own company and doing things for youself not others.
If we go with self isolation: Gods are seen as above humans so the artists portrays the loner NEET as someone who thinks they are too good to society who doesn't wish to make any human connection and only want to self indulge in destructive behaviours such as alcohol and sex. And in a modern society the internet(seen by the computer) and consumerism(seen by the riddler dakimakura). Also note the internet has given us access to sex in whole other ways.
The artist also draws parallels between the modern NEET and Jesus seen by the wound at the rib which Jesus is sometimes portrayed with. The rib wound also parallels Adam and Eve. The Jesus imagery shows the NEET as a martyr. You can see this as a form for self-pity. The Adam and Eve parallels tells us how the internet and consumerism has created a new world and new human relationships/communication. Either the artist means that this rabid evolving society is the new original sin or that it's a beautiful new creation made in god's image just like the original humans where.
There is also other religious imagery on the walls. This can mean sanctuary. So the modern NEET uses their room as a holy ground. Away from society. The religious pictures on the wall can also mean turning yourself into a god. And as mention earlier either that means self love or self isolation.
