>>1489389>Eduard Einstein (28 July 1910 – 25 October 1965) was born in Zürich, Switzerland, the second son of physicist Albert Einstein from his first wife Mileva Marić. Albert Einstein and his family moved to Berlin in 1914. Shortly thereafter the parents separated, and Marić returned to Zürich, taking Eduard and his older brother Hans Albert with her. His father remarried in 1919 and in 1933 emigrated to the United States .>Eduard was a good student and had musical talent. After gymnasium, he started to study medicine to become a psychiatrist, but by the age of twenty one he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. He was institutionalized two years later for the first of several times. Biographers of his father have speculated that the drugs and "cures" of the time damaged rather than aided the young Einstein.[30] His brother Hans Albert Einstein believed that his memory and cognitive abilities had been deeply affected by electroconvulsive therapy treatments Eduard received while institutionalized.[31]>After a breakdown, Eduard had told his father Albert that he hated him, and after the father's emigration to the United States they never saw each other again.>Eduard lived most of the time at the psychiatric clinic Burghölzli in Zurich, where he died in 1965 of a stroke at age 55. He is buried at Hönggerberg Cemetery in Zurich.Her husband cheated on her with his own cousin, her daughter died and her youngest son became a schizoid, fucking hell

How do I animate a legitimately fat, senior aged, lazy cat that doesn't like me to move around more? She won't chase anything, I don't think I've seen her jump higher than like a foot in literal years (when she was younger she was like an athlete, I actually feared for my face), which is understandable, considering how fat she is, and if you play with her she grows tired of it after like five minutes. I already don't feed her at all (though honestly, I think that she flat-out refuses to drink anything that isn't milk is the main cause here) and tell my parents to ignore her crying, but they say they can't refuse their baby anything and that a short life liven in abundance is better than a long ascetic one, but thinking about how hyped she used to be as a kitten seriously makes me cry lol. The only thing keeping me at bay is the fact that, despite her weight and age, she doesn't seem to have any health problems, aside from a little snoring.

>The survey found that same-sex cohabitants reported significantly more intimate partner violence than did opposite-sex cohabitants. Among women, 39.2 percent of the same-sex cohabitants and 21.7 percent of the opposite sex cohabitants reported being raped, physically assaulted, and/or stalked by a marital/cohabiting partner at some time in their lifetime. Among men, the comparable figures are 23.1 percent and 7.4 percent (exhibit 8). At first glance, these findings suggest that both male and female same-sex couples experience more intimate partner violence than do opposite sex couples. However, a comparison of intimate partner victimization rates among same-sex and opposite-sex cohabitants by perpetrator gender produced some interesting findings: 30.4 percent of same-sex cohabiting women reported being victimized by a male partner, whereas 11.4 percent reported being victimized by a female partner. Thus, same-sex cohabiting women were nearly three times more likely to report being victimized by a male partner than by a female partner. Moreover, opposite-sex cohabiting women were nearly twice as likely to report being victimized by a male partner than were same-sex cohabiting women by a female partner(20.3 percent and 11.4 percent)
>Dishonest Journalists have spun this study to suggest that lesbian relationships are more violent than heterosexual or gay male relationships because 39.2% of women who have lived with women have experienced domestic violence. However, 11.4% report being victimized by a female partner, and 30.4% of women who have lived with women report being victimized by a male partner. The difference (20.3% vs 30.4%) suggests that either bisexual women are more likely to experience violence, OR, bisexual women who experience violence are more likely to date women then a bisexual women who has not experienced violence.Quoted from:

>>1491482> Wouldn't a weekends-only mental health professional's office make a lot of money and business…?I think this is not much motivation as they are already making a lot of money. Private therapy is expensive as it is, adding a weekend surcharge large enough to make it worth a therapists time probably won’t attract much more business. There might be some that work weekends - I do agree it’s a good idea, and could suit part-time therapists too - but if it’s not really happening in the private sector, it’s likely because it’s not profitable enough.
Public healthcare therapy is the same though (at least in my country). Therapists work the traditional 9-5 or something similar, it’s standard for all public healthcare jobs aside from hospital/emergency care staff.

mom nonnas/ kid caretakers can you help?
I have a little brother, age 9, who is a good, sheltered child. (Church, polos, only religious cds) One of his cousins thought it was funny to teach him how to moan like a porno. But the lil bro has zero access to anything besides minecraft bros on youtube. No cell, no tiktok. My dad doesnt look at videos like that… he even mutes/ changed channels during a sex scene on cable. (And then rants about porn sick media etc).
When he showed me the “new noise” he found, I pulled him aside. I told him he can make that noise in private, but not in public. He seemed confused, and Im sure its because he doesnt know why its wrong. I didnt berate him, but I would like some guidance in how to move forward.
I am 30, so the age gap is big and I just want to educate him appropriately if possible. I dont want to be the sex educator, but Im not letting him grow up into a jock jerk if i can help it. Such a weird thing to navigate. Idk what to do.

Some of her singles are pretty weak but her performance and singing abilities make up for it, her best albums are also not very popular sadly. I would recommend Black is King, imo its her best album with the best producers, performances and visuals

>>1495312Because people are stupid. They hear the term homeless and think, "Being homeless is bad. But thinking being homeless is bad, is bad because no one deserves to be homeless. Therefore, I have to change the word so people will not think I'm bad for saying that the homeless are homeless."
To give you an idea of how bad it's gotten, in academic circles, it is bad to use the word liar. You are corrected and told that their reality and malfunctioning habits are a result of their bad childhood and you're not checking your privilege if you call someone a liar for knowingly lying.
Ladies, vet your therapists really really carefully. They are absolutely insane and are so detached from the real world that they will give you advice that they know will hurt you, as long as it aligns with their academic training and brings prestige within their community. Try to find an older woman who has been in the field for at least ten years. No. 1495389
>>1495361Look at her website. Personally, I want someone who understands me, so I only see older women with years of experience, so I make sure there's a picture of her and then I check the dates she graduated. Ideally, you'd actually get someone the same race as you. There are so many cultural differences between the races that although therapists are trained to act like they understand, some of them don't actually get it because they've just lived an entirely different life.
Next, check the university she went to. In person is better, but I have seen a few gems come from online college. A lot of online colleges are more concerned with money and graduation rates, so they'll push people through the program even if they aren't up to standards. If you really want to know more, look into what the university specializes in when it comes to their counseling degree. Some colleges will be known for their trauma therapy approach, while other really only churn out academics who go on to teach at other universities.
Then, check her blurb under her picture on a website. She'll mention her specialty and anything she thinks is relevant. Someone saying that they're LGBTQ+ trained is a warning sign unless you are specifically looking to transition. I find these women often slightly push butches and gender non-conforming women to transition, believing that we'll be happier that way. Some of them will also drop you as a client if you tell them outright that transitioning is bullshit and mocks women.
Christianity/spiritual training can also be a warning sign depending on the guidance you're looking for. When I went in for grief counseling about the death of my husband, I dropped a really well respected counselor because her constant pushing of the belief that ghosts are real. It really rubbed me the wrong way since I had told her that one of the things I was struggling with was the realization that he was gone forever. Therapists should always respect your boundaries. However, if you are religious, these types of counselors can be good for you as they guide you within your faith and unlock realizations that help you accept your trauma.
And finally, therapists should help you move towards your goals. If you don't have a direct plan on how to do that, they should create one for you. Say you want to move past a bad break up that left you doubting yourself. The therapist should be a safe place to talk and vent your frustrations, while also giving you the mental tools to stop your thoughts from circling when you get stuck on it at home. She also shouldn't be afraid to tell you that she feels you've gone as far as possible with her and to refer you to another counselor.
Ultimately, talk therapy and CBT is really good to help people vent and grieve, and to help break through into realizations you've missed. However, if you've tried those and you felt that it didn't work as expected, or that your problems are more extreme/physically traumatic than that, I strongly recommend EMDR therapy. It's specialized and requires extra training, so it's pricey, but it rewires your brain as you process trauma and lets you move on.
No. 1495417
>>1495400It's a combination of things. Some therapists are bad, they never give you the tools you need to be self sufficient. They don't care if you see them for years because each time you come back, you pay them.
Some patients are bad. You can equip them with all the mental tools and realizations that ten years and a doctorate got you, but they'll never use them and instead will come back next week and complain about the exact same thing they complained about last week.
And sometimes the trauma is too bad for anything but the strongest, most professionally guided EMDR therapy to even begin to fix. You see this a lot with child abuse and CSA.
And sometimes people just want to vent and they're willing to pay $150 an hour to do so. So it varies wildly. But if you have seen a therapist for six sessions, and you fell like you haven't made any progress, you should see a different therapist.

>>1496361Do you mean like difference between torrenting and direct dl?
Torrents are files you get from other users while direct dl are files hosted on a website. So depending on what material you’re looking for, it could be sketchy and unsafe either way.
For things like new games it could be safer to direct dl from trusted website of reputable cracker directly to avoid fake torrents. For things like movies or softwares, depending on popularity, well seeded torrents make downloading huge files like the entirety of a tv show very fast and reliable. Whereas downloading 20GB of movies or photoshop.exe from an prussian website full of ads is sus and slow and they get corrupted half way through. Generally torrents are better organized and easier to find. On the other hand, I have had instances where a niche thing was not getting seeded by a single person on earth but there was ddl available on some guy’s google drive. “Safe” direct dl file hosting sites can be gatekeepy, they may be paywalled. Both methods have their place and time and varied degrees of convenience.
No. 1496532
>>1496361In regards to what the other
nonnie was asking? When you torrent something, you connect to a public tracker and receive/send pieces of the file directly to other people. You can see the IP addresses who is downloading or seeding in the peer list, which is why it's easy to get caught torrenting mainstream media unless you use a VPN.
Direct downloads are safer because you download from a privately-owned server. Your IP isn't publicly available. If you don't have a VPN and you're overly worried about getting caught, direct downloads are the way to go.

When I went short again as an adult, older women at work said I looked like a model and I was asked to appear on a "queer" dating show (didn't do it due to fear of TiMs showing up). My family members though can't shut up about how fugly I am with short hair and just random men and women commenting how it's sad I have short hair.

>>1496953Huh, it's so weird you get such comments from random people, nonna.

At the same time, many people loved it and thought it suited me better. I got a few negative comments long after school only when I got a rather high undercut, and yeah, it wasn't the best cut I had. Btw I'm a bit of a chad too kek, and I feel like long hair drags my face down so when it's long I just wear it in a ponytail most of the time. I feel like some people just don't have an eye for it, so to say, and depend on meaningless standards too much, like outdated ideas about "femininity". Also some people think that if you have a wide face you should "hide" it and therefore it's better to have as much hair as possible, even though it makes no sense and your face won't magically shrink. I mean, surely you can create certain visual effect to "change" the shape but it's not that simple.
I think it all depends on a hairstyle itself, maybe you can modify yours a bit if you have doubts about it? There are lots of celebrities with wide jaws that wore/wear short hair, you could look for their photos for inspiration. Are you sure you need volume on top, maybe it'd be enough to just open your face?

>>1497021In my culture nobody has a filter and they just say what's on their mind. So people will give their opinion on how other people look unprompted all of the time. Like when I had long hair and dressed femininish for a bit, people would ask me whether I have a disease, intersex or whether I'm a TiM. Which isn't just related to my face, moreso my body and body language.
I've never seen any other woman with my bodytype, except in paintings and statues, but those are reportedly really just men with boobs, because their skeleton is apparently too broad for a woman and they're too muscular, so that doesn't make me feel any better.With short hair people basically go "you could be so pretty if you tried and grew your hair out!". Or blatantly "you ruined yourself".

Are you sure you need volume on top, maybe it'd be enough to just open your face?I like my jaw and don't mind it looking big, I prefer it even, if I'm not trying to be feminine or pretty. The problem is that the big jaw is in combination with a highish narrow forehead, creating the Anisa pearshape (picrel). I definitely need volume on top, opening up my face isn't enough. The top of my head is just too small to handle limp tranny hair accentuating it in any way shape or form. I look like I have less hair the longer it is.
I like my face with the haircut I have now, but yes admittedly I don't look like a pretty woman. I don't look beautiful and maybe that's just impossible. No make up, hair or feminine clothes in the world could make me look like a pretty feminine or sexy woman. I will have to settle for handsome, because masculine stuff just looks more natural on me. Just the only people who seem to be attracted to masculine women are bi men and weird gymbros (makes me feel revolting) or finally the rare woman but who will always be like 5 years younger than me and thinks I'm an enbie transmasc who would be great for their TikTok.
It's just fucking with my head that people seem to think that if I'd just slap some make up on, put on a dress and got limp tranny hair I would suddenly be a bombshell. When that would just make me feel like irl Kikomi and people would still point that out too.

I know it depends on the click between you and your therapist, but in general, is therapy worth it? I have no direction in life, trauma that gets in the way of personal relationships and depression that keeps me from even climbing out of my bed a lot of the time. I talked to my friends, they gave some advice but also told me if I was feeling that bad I should see someone. It has never worked for me but I had my last therapist when I was 15 and didn't try to actually work on myself so that's a big factor. I want to give it a try but 95% of the work is done by you and I can just talk to friends or family if I feel like I need some outside perspective. Plus it's expensive and takes up time. Are there any nonna's with similar problems who went to therapy, did it help?
>>1498195It's based on sexism, the man is seen as the 'provider' in a relationship so some women buy into that and expect the guy to pay, even if they're not in a relationship. If a man insists to pay he either has old manners or wants a reason for you to hook up with him (most likely the latter). I like it when guys pay for meals but mostly because I'm cheap kek, only if he offers to though.

>>1498904Do you have any goals you want to work towards? Anything short term and long term? I think creating goals and keeping them in mind during your day to day life can help you feel some motivation.
Even if the goal is something stupid, it's something you go to sleep and wake up for to slowly create progress into achieving. A tiny goal I create for myself every week is basically my shopping list. I have taught myself to feel grateful for finding such item. I felt happiness yesterday because I bought some $2 dill flavored dip that tastes like the sauce they put in gyros.
Maybe another good idea would be to make a daily journal for 3 good things that happened that day, any more than 3 is a plus. Even if it's small stuff, focusing on little details can get you into a mindset to continuously be reminded that happiness is out there, we're just sometimes ignorant of knowing where to look for it.

>>1499274Like I said, it's shady, but there's nothing objectively wrong with checking in (at least in the initial stages) if it's a man. It doesn't hurt the man, and it can save the woman a massive waste of time and heartbreak. When women are always told not to trust their instincts and to give men the benefit of the doubt, then end up getting betrayed over and over again because there were "no real signs", "no proof" or "he'd never do that", this sort of thing can no longer be considered crazy behavior in good faith. Even statistics reflect that they cheat more, sadly. The bad, manipulative moids make even the innocent ones look untrustworthy, so I don't fault women for not trusting.
Now, if you find yourself constantly "testing" him or wanting to do so, it's best to just choose another guy and/or question yourself.

Confession and question
I have never touched a baby
Never held one, never played with one, at most I talked and made faces with them and they usually smile or giggle, but I have never had skin to skin contact with a kid under like 2. And I am considering jobs with babies if necessary, so now I am researching how to feed babies and how to change a diaper and how to hold them and like… maybe I shouldn't be left with a baby. Okay I know hold the head, don't shake or drop or throw them. I practice with my cats, and kitten. This kitten is like baby training I swear I had to teach it everything, and it's super clingy. I have toddler experience so you know helping them peepee and poopoo on their baby toilets, but no baby babies. And when I started working with kids I and no idea what I was doing I just asked them are you hungry? What do you want? And copied what the mother was doing, just keep them alive, fed, and free of poops.
Also another random confession I like eating baby food, like in the jars, it's good. I ate it as a snack through my early teens and like I's eat it again I think.
So anyone here know babies well?

If someone is knowledgable about technique they certainly have experience but they might be the best at teaching and not at crafting, or they are retired. Like for artistic sports and dance their body might not be up to shape but they know their shit. For physical arts they can probably still draw or paint or act you know?
I hate to say "those who can't do, teach" bevause it's both true and false. Those who can do, do it, retire and teach high level. Those who can't bitterly teach low level. Olympians and ballerinas are taught by experts, public schools are taught by failures sorry to say. But you do have people who know their art form that excel at running it and not participating at times, like an olympic judge usually never was an olympian but they know the sport.

>>1502023I started writing this, but it got way too long, so here's the cut version.
So the original thing was she tweeted a response to a company calling women "people who menstruate." saying, "wasn't there a word for this? woomahn? wimon?" This got her a lot of push back so she tweeted "If sex isn’t real, there’s no same-sex attraction. If sex isn’t real, the lived reality of women globally is erased. I know and love trans people, but erasing the concept of sex removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives. It isn’t hate to speak the truth. This was all back in 2020.
She tweeted a bunch of other stuff supporting trans people but holding the firm line that women are oppressed. And she kept getting more and more push back, but she kept saying basically the same thing: sex is real and it influences your life, and therefore there is a difference between the sexes, no matter what gender you identify as. So over time, she starts taking a more explicit stance, though she doesn't come out directly and say it, that trans women are not women. Starts going to brunches with other leftists who have anti-trans stances.
She donates to Allison Elaine Bailey's legal fund, who is suing the trans lobby Stonewall, but that's the only time I've ever been able to find a donation that is directly linked to anything anti-trans.
And then by late 2022, she's gotten so many death and rape threats from troons that she just starts trolling people and tweets shit like "Merry Terfmas" and that's pretty much where we are. She remains one of the richest women on earth, trans people keep trying to cancel her but everyone loves Harry Potter and doesn't actually think trans women are women, so she continues to be uncancelled.

Is it possible to get someone to understand your sense of humor? My bf is extremely offline thank god, but doesn't seem to understand any sort of sarcasm or most memes unless they're really straight forward. Even something like the thread pic, he'd understand that it's a captcha joke but I can't imagine him laughing or just understanding why it's funny. I had to adapt to his sense of humor which is a lot more normie and kind of front page reddit 'cat slipping in a bathtub' videos or "explicitly funny" (as in, doing an impression or making a funny voice) and that's totally fun and cute and I enjoy that, but like, I feel like I'm constantly being cringe by trying to get him to understand my humor. I'm not even attempting to get him into internet humor, I'm not trying to corrupt him.
Essentially my brain is filled with soyjaks and gigachad memes and esoteric internet references, but I'm willing to bring myself up to surface level humor, but even that is going over his head. I really love him and it's not a huge deal in our relationship since we always have a good time together but, any advice? I don't really believe in just flat out incompatibility since in so many relationships I've adapted or my partner has adapted.
Anyway how do you get someone to enjoy the depth and nuance of memes.

I've been trying to get pregnant for a few years and finally am. I was using this app premom to track my ovulation days. My last period was Dec 16-22, but I ovulated on Dec 31 and I know for a fact that the 31 was day I conceived so why did this app claim conception started imidiatly after my period? I'm only 8weeks 2 days but the app says it's 9weeks 2days and it's driving me up the wall becasue I feel bad for m I swing all the cute little images and information they have on it.

No. 1503393
>>1503328Another good way of heating, if you have a gas stove, is to just let a large pot of water boil all day. It probably doesn't work as well in a really small room because then the air's moisture would become too much. Heat/air conditioning I think is probably the easiest to replace with low technology solutions. Not sure about AC, except opening the windows at night if you have cold nights in the summer, then closing them and the blinds during the day. Anyway I don't know if you
need a gas stove, but electric stoves use electricity and not a flame (I think?).

Nonnas, i am going to my first concert and I wonder if you can give me some (especially safety) tips.
I will be in one of the seated places but I still worry about it, as my friends told me that its common for people to steal your stuff at a concert.

I also heard that sometimes (or all the time, I am not sure) there is a chance to buy the merch from a band. Probably not worth it, unless it's their farewell concert or something.
Not going to drink, will grab water and a snack for me for sure. I am gonna travel far just to see the concert and go back home, thankfully. I thought it would be nice to try finding a new friend or two, but I feel like finding someone there would be too risky.

is it worth it making faceless let's play videos on youtube in the year 2023? I think watching streams is dreadful and I dislike when gamers show their faces or uses vtuber avatars. For me let's plays that are edited to be under 20 minutes and are devided into several episodes, where the gamer talks while playing but doesn't show their face is pure comfy. I want to make videos like that where I play nostalgic games from early-mid 00's but will I get any views if I did that? I don't expect to make it big but if I could get something around 100 views then I would be satisfied. Is it possible or are these type of videos completely dead?

What is the evolutionary purpose of periods? I've read articles and watched videos and I still don't understand. They say it's a benefit for both the woman and the baby but I don't get it. Very few mammals actually menstruate and I'm struggling to understand why human women have to deal with this. It's agonizing and I'm trying to convince myself there's some evolutionary purpose for it that benefits women. I've never believed the whole "my body is punishing me for not being pregnant" cliché, I want to understand that there's an actual purpose for it. Can anyone explain this to me like I'm a simpleton.

No. 1504623
>>1504609Okay, so I'm a dumbass but, I took an anthropology class once, and basically humans have to have much more complicated pregnancies for two main reasons. Our gestation (pregnancy) period has to take incredibly long for fully developed babies, and we have to deliver this baby while being bipedal, (you'll have to push the baby out through a narrow hole known as your pelvic bowl). Now, there's many evolutionary problems that can arrive from these challenges, and basically, this results in us needing to have a safe way to gestate our young for a very long time so your baby can have an actual brain when its born. How? You're gonna need a more complex menstruation and gestation system.
TLDR, other mammals aren't bipeds, and don't have complex brains that require long term development, so they don't need complex reproductive cycles.

nonnies, I get a lot of face tension and it's so bad that I'm extremely uncomfortable with facing people, looking them in the eye, etc. I purse my lips a lot and the entire area feels terrible.
it also doesn't help that I'm getting up in the years and my face is covered in scars + cysts. tretinoin hasn't helped. how do you get more confident and also relax your face in spite of all of that? I ended up stopping talking to my childhood best friend because it's just so comfortable hiding and never interacting with anyone.
also, I have 4 different bite issues (I never got braces) + have trouble talking and I technically was greenlit for jaw surgery because of it, but there's 0 way I can afford it. so I'm pretty much on my own to cope.
No. 1505480
>>1505477Depends on how noticeable it is. If your breasts are on the larger side and/or you're wearing a top that makes it obvious you're not wearing a bra, you're probably going to get some people judging you. Japanese people typically dress pretty modestly and I've never seen anyone going (visibly) braless there.
I guess the question is whether you should care or not. Even if you do get some looks, people are very unlikely to actually say anything, let alone harass you over it. I think the kind of people who would automatically write you off as an obnoxious tourist may already think like that just because you're a foreigner, regardless of bralessness.
I'm not sure about the nipple piercings but I think they would be fine at an onsen, can't imagine why not.

how long does it take to get good at art, like good enough to draw or paint something similar to pic related, assuming no art schooling and relying on youtube for tutorials? is there any way I can improve faster?
No. 1505529
>>1505503Yeah, exactly! It's normal to feel discouraged but it's also normal to not be immedately able to exactly reproduce the same effect someone took years to learn how to achieve. Get well acquainted with the tools you're using, and try out various approaches to the same problem you're facing. For example let's say you're trying to learn how to paint hair and copying one artist doesn't work for you, try to find someone who has a different process and study theirs, maybe it will be a better fit for you?
Also, it's good to aim high but sometimes when you put too difficult of a challenge on yourself every time you'll get frustrated, it's good to go back to simpler things just for a sake of solidifying the skill and feeling more confident. So if that complex multiple character study is not coming along well just go back to painting black and white apple next to a vase or a 10 quick pose sketches. Small steps!

No. 1505654
>>1505651It affects your breasts with estrogen. Increased estrogen increases risk of breast cancer. Pills have less estrogen in them now because it was causing breast cancer (I don’t know if you could say they fixed the problem but from what I read companies seriously lowered the estrogen dosage and the risk is greatly reduced since the initial research on breast cancer was published). Some pills have no estrogen, IUDs don’t have any estrogen. If you are worried about breast cancer because of a genetic predisposition they’re a better option.

I want longer nails thank my own since they look like little boys nails, but press ons always snap off and hurt my fingers when they do. Would acrylic or gel nails work better?

I want very reasonable lenght ones, just barely longer than my own
No. 1505794
>>1505781I would definitely recommend you get your nails professionally done first before jumping into doing your own! If you decide to do them yourself, polygel and Gel X nails are way easier than acrylic because it doesn't set until you cure it with a lamp. To get gel nails to stay, please follow proper prep and
get acid-free primer. Primer is possibly the most important step to getting your nails to stay on. Polygel and gel x are both very easy, but gel x is easier for that length imo. Gel X is essentially like higher quality, long-lasting press ons and as long as you follow proper prep they shouldn't snap off. There are thousands of tutorials on youtube, this might be a good place to start. Watch a lot of videos. And please be careful with not getting gel on your skin.
