Facts. I had such horrible gut issues as a late teen/early adult due to multiple surgeries and illness. Docs thought I was celiac and the like. Nothing I did seemed to help, even cutting out gluten, so I eventually got referred to a Korean gastroenterologist. He took one look at my chart then told me to eat a cup of fermented kimchi everyday for a month. I'm not perfect (RA induced IBS) but holy shit (KEK) did it help. Just know you're in for a lot of spicy vinegar farts as things balance out. After a few days of the kimchi therapy (plus prebiotics) I woke up with what felt like a colonic holocaust. Ended up releasing a 60 second megafart into the porcelain bowl and afterwards felt amazing. Pretty sure I woke up the neighborhood but 10/10 worth it.

sorry to sound like a moid but i'm genuinely curious if a successful phalloplasty has ever been done, or the closest to success anyway, at least aesthetically? everytime i see one i'm shocked at how non penis-like they always look. zero shape at all i'm thinking why did they even have them take those hormones to grow the clitoris (i'm assuming) if they're just going to make a literal third arm/leg completely shapeless. it's so disturbing i'm wondering if there's any instances where it turned out somewhat nicely because no way are tifs looking at that and thinking yep that's what i'll be paying thousands for. even as a tra formerly it made me feel so sick to see

No. 1521359

>>1521338
I don't think there's anything stopping you from transferring back to your old university but it depends on how many courses you've taken. When I did that, they were only able to transfer a maximum of 60 credits (4 semesters of full courseload) that would count towards my degree. The other 60 credits to complete would have to be taken at the other institution. I would definitely recommend talking to a university advisor though from both institutions.

look for a guy who has a history of being in “demiromantic” (lol) relationships only. There genuinely are some men who don’t get hard for women they aren’t romantically interested in —normal human beings basically.

Yeah. I didn’t get them for the first several years but then with the 2nd iud I got I started getting full on PMS symptoms after two years of having the iud but no bleeding. I got a new one and it stopped. Not sure yet if it’s gonna be a regular thing that I need to switch them out every two years now. My obgyn got my insurance to cover it by saying I needed it for menstrual suppression (which I did but it seemed like it could have been an issue if I didn’t say that). She also mentioned she had some patients with endometriosis that switched theirs out every year because it just didn’t suppress their periods for very long.

I agree with the other anons of looking for men with those qualities. Believe it or not there are men out there who aren't pornsick, misogynist and can recognize toxic masculinity. Very rare but they exist. It's easier to be with a well-adjusted, mentally healthy man than a man with trans issues and other sorts of mental illness. Plus the fact that he trooned out in the first place means he has a sexist view of women which is hard and almost impossible to fix.

Absolutely worst idea. As >>1521368 said, men transition BECAUSE they hate women, not because they hate men. MTF's are 99% sexually motivated, both AGP's and HSTS. Best bet is finding a moid who rarely uses the internet, lives a lowkey life like out in a more suburban or rural area, maybe one who was raised only by his mother and has a good relationship with her, and who doesn't have degen male friends. Trouble is that's hard to find.

You can train a stronger singing voice and wider range, but opera specifically is the one singing style where an average person might not be able to replicate… I’m not an expert but every opera singer I know only has a very specific range, to project over an orchestra or whatnot. You can still learn to sing arias for your own enjoyment of course. like pop singer Naomi Elizabeth’s opera covers for a more unconventional example. Also you could study / emulate other singers who have loud vibrato esque effects, like Diamanda Galas or some moments by Jun Togawa.

complete coincidence. actually I found out the guy I was into was like this after we were already together. I was just thinking with demisexual/romantic being an actual term people use now maybe it could be useful.

Signs he was like this: He was a prude but not in a slut-shaming way, it was always directed at the guy friends he had just calling them gross for having sex with anyone they could. Literally never once did he express any happiness for a guy who had a one night stand, at best he just listened silently and then they stopped telling him about it. When he was in a relationship he spent the majority of his time with her ("joined at the hip") and made plans around her. He expected the same and things would only fail when the woman didn't reciprocate.

–This is all very vague but I think it's probably better stuff to look for than dating a TIM and trying to detrans him which seems like an absolutely insane and cursed path

Well in that case you have to weight the negatives and positives of a person. Not all people are 100% like you and agree and act 100% according to your views, it’s healthy to recognize that.

How do you shake off a lovely sweet cat that's following you without hurting its feelings? One followed me after I gave it a little pet and I was like nononono, I was bone tired because I was carrying heavy stuff and had been travelling for 6 hours, but when it stood in front of my building door I couldn't imagine closing the door behind me and shunning it (it's impossible to take it into my apartment), so I kept walking around the block hoping it'd get distracted. Eventually it did but not so long later I heard it meowing so loudly, i'm sure for me, I almost turned back. It was with a heavy heart I walked onwards.

Those that know cat behaviour what's the best way to handle such a situation? The guilt is eating me alive.

I'm fairly certain your egg was spoiled.. if you want to test if your egg is still OK to use, you can carefully put it in a cup of water. If it lays flat it's fresh and if it stands up but still touches the bottom it's not as fresh but still good to use, if it floats you need to throw it out.

not becoming a boymom means understanding he's probably not going to be a saint and will hide his most misogynistic behaviors from you and target other women. we live in a sexist society, and you as his mom only have so much influence before his peers and rest of society influence him towards misogynistic beliefs and tendencies. you may be able to raise him to be alright for a man but like how most boys and men watch porn now, you only have so much influence as he grows up. you probably have next to no influence over fetish development, you can limit exposure to weird shit and stick to regular cartoons but if a sexual association of fascination begins that's it and he'll probably have it for rest of his life.

I need advice!

I currently am employed through a family friend to take care of a 91 year old woman. Have done child care previously, took care of my mom after her stroke, handled food, cleaning services, etc. Recently got the opportunity to take care of someone who only asked for women, and my brain immediately went to "oh I can help another older woman out!" Ended up being a man. We did a few phone interviews and he says the state will pay for me to get certified PCA license. But it all smells fishy to me. He wants to "trade back rubs" and go to Strip shows where women are topless. As a bisexual woman, it's not a big deal but it's how the conversation was presented. As well as texting, he said "send however risque texts or pictures as you want! We're going to have fun!" So now it just doesn't feel like a safe option.
I love taking care of people but not at the cost of safety or compromising morals. Should I back out? I just read a text he sent that "20+ women backed out" but no shit if even at his old age, he's still talking to people like that. I'd rather just have a part time at McDonald's than worry about some old dude trying to feel me up or expect the opposite.

Obviously putting this in the dumb thread because I'm obviously stupid for even entertaining the idea. I would love a solid license, but as mentioned, not if I'm doing any of that gross shit.

Tbh I see current day’s beauty industry more as a symptom of capitalist society than patriarchy. It’s very consoomerist. We were drawn in by marketing tactics, but have reached the point where it’s now so common for women to wear make-up that you might stand out if you don’t, just for existing in your natural state. It’s the same narrative with plastic surgery. If you criticize it it’s always “what about free will durr”. As if we live in a vacuum. I don’t wear make-up, but that said even I can understand for some it’s a fun and creative hobby. But when you think about the increasing environmental impact from production, transport and waste, that is probably only increasing because of online shopping and social media, not to mention you are caking your face with probably toxic shit, is it really worth it

How bad is it to isolate yourself? Not because i'm angry or sad with the outside world but because i feel like it's the best choice. Anyone that isolates has any problems that are not about feeling alone, sad etc for having to isolate? Does distracting yourself solves any emotional problem that may surface?

My opinion is from a mentally ill person's perspective but I also believe that the will to isolate is often rooted in some sort of issues in one's life unless you're about to become a hermit living in a cave in order to meditate so… I'm sorry to assume that your reasons to isolate might not be to reach enlightenment.

For me isolation has often caused my day rhythm go absolutely off the rails. Since I won't be going anywhere or seeing anyone I might also let go of my standards for personal hygiene and the state of my apartment. Both of these contributed to the perceived need to isolate, like I can't leave my apartment because I look like a fucking gremlin and I can't let anyone in because my apartment looks like a landfill.

Also if you have a problem in your life, not necessarily a mental health problem per se but like some emotional issues or you're hung up on something that has happened to you it might snowball out of control. Since you spend so much time by yourself surrounded by yourself and your thoughts it might be a bit too easy to lose the big picture, your mind might exaggerate the scope of your issues.

I can distract myself to a certain extent but eventually I can't run away from all the chaos inside and outside of my mind. The longer you isolate yourself the harder it becomes to stop it even for a short while to step outside to get your mail or go to the store. I'd become anxious and even borderline paranoid about leaving the safety of my apartment. Yes, I have been mentally extremely unwell during my worst isolation periods but isolation absolutely made it all worse.

I am an introvert and never have really had that many friends, I can easily go without meeting up with anyone for months so feeling alone usually isn't an issue, but I think at some point almost everyone's mental state starts to crumble if you have zero social interactions. Despite of being really well adjusted to being alone even I would start to feel like my life was so sad and worthless when my only irl social contacts were my mental health nurse and the cashier at the store.

That's very, very interesting nonna. Thank you very much for your answer. Yes, i'm mentally ill, you are not wrong to assume so. I'm already isolated in some sorts (only talk to my partner and to my father and mother) and my hygiene is, in fact, pretty bad too kek. But what if i choose to isolate, looking after the best experiencing possible while isolating? Planning everythig so i'm able to be healthy (exercises, maybe journaling and even meditating), is there still possibilities that i'm going to get mentally sick from that experience anyways?

I had the privilege of total isolation for 2 weeks (no contact with uni, friends or family) and I think it's a dangerous thing. For me it fucked with my ego in that I thought I was one of the smartest ever and normies are dumb shits, but it made me SO sensitive to any perceived slights, whether it be how the cashier looked at me or seeing something online that disparaged something I like kek.

If you start to ruminate it can really fuck you up. I was definitely mentally ill at the time of isolation and it made me someone much more bitter to how you have to be to function in society. However we're social creatures and can't reject it outright, and need to embrace it if we want to thrive. I don't know your circumstances but I would recommend you go the opposite way and try have a super social set amount of time. I hate being around people, they're very exhausting but when you're fully on your own longish term it's like you cease to exist. Personally during those 2 weeks I had a lot of fun but I wouldn't repeat it because it took a long long time to reintegrate myself even to the subpar social level I was at before.

Ntayrt but what does the best experience possible while isolating look like to you? I've seen sometimes people can think they are doing this in a healthy and productive way (isolating to dedicate all their time to self-improvement, for example) but it's actually extremely unhealthy (thinking you need to be perfect or achieve some arbitrary goal before you can socialize or be around people).
I think it's possible that isolation for a time could be a healthy thing but I also think that is very rare. And from my experience, if something is telling you that you need to isolate, it's very important to figure out why that is.

Nta but I was isolated in this way for a couple years, I didn't talk to anyone (I went to the grocery store and other necessary things though where I 'interacted' with a cashier) but I was healthy in all other ways, like with exercise and eating well, and I'm also not mentally ill. In my experience the actual isolation was fine, I feel way more stable and relaxed when I'm by myself, but the longer you spend alone the harder it is to integrate back into the social world. Recently I had to start going out again which forced me to break my isolation (I still don't talk to anyone, but I'm around people more often), and I'm finding it an absolutely horrible experience kek. I think having a baseline amount of social interaction like some other anons said is for the best, that way it's less of a shock to your system when you have to be around people.

I just couldn’t pass it up, it’s was like drawing me in and stuff. Should I make reservation at some fancy restaurant? I would invite my mom but if she saw it she would freak out thinking I spent a fortune when I really didn’t. Would it be weird to go alone?

How fancy are we talking about? Because I’ve gone to some fancy as fuck places and no one ever wears dresses like pic related unless they’re coming from/ going to some party.
I mean, you can always just go to the fancy restaurant and wear your dress, there’s nothing wrong with it, I’m just saying it’s not really the dress you wear specifically to go to a restaurant no matter how fancy it may be.
Plus you would be eating and it could get dirty with the food or drinks. You can always take it to the dry cleaners though.
I’m honestly having a hard time imagining wearing a dress like pic related to anything other than a party, like a new year’s party, maybe a Christmas party even, weddings, other religious events, graduation parties, fancy birthdays, anniversaries, maybe the opening/success of some business, a very fancy baby shower. But otherwise I just can’t think of an occasion, maybe some other anons have more ideas.

you can always just spend a 'night on the town' in it. someone might ask if if you're headed to a party or something and you can tell them you just feel like treating yourself to a nice evening.
several years ago i would never wear anything that made me stand out, i liked to hide. i moved to the city and within a month or two i realized i could wear anything i wanted, outlandish even, walk around downtown and everyone would probably just think I'm going to or coming from something and not give it a second thought. it sounds stupid but it was a real waking up moment for me that led to me being more bold and creative in what i wore.
so just treat yourself to some nice evenings where you feel good and look good in the dress. check out event websites and stuff for things you might be interested in where you could wear it and feel comfortable in.
unfortunately even at operas, where classically people would dress up fancy and formal to attend, are full of people in jeans and gym shoes. so above all else you just gotta wear it because you want to, because you will likely be best dressed wherever you go regardless.

How can I relieve subconscious stress? I don't feel any stress and can't point out any, but my body is saying otherwise: 10 days of spotting (I NEVER spot this long.

My ex works in IT but his hobby was hacking. He moved into his parents place and im still in the apartment looking for a place to move into. He came by a few days ago because he 'forgot something'.

yes it is possible he has access to your router or could have installed a keylogger. all you have to do is plug in a usb and install from it pretty quickly and keyloggers can be hidden (either really really hidden or just on the surface hidden). you can scan your computer and see if it identifies one.
you can likely find a service to check if there is unusual traffic on your router as well

This sounds like it could be also ADHD, like starting new hobbies and getting bored with them soon, rejection sensitivity (you might want to check out RSD), being moody. I can see a lot of myself in these and I am diagnosed with bipolar disorder but I could definitely have some undiagnosed issues as well. You do describe some symptoms of bpd as well, I'm not too familiar with the diagnostic criteria but stuff like
>when somebody flakes me i start thinking of why they are annoying and stupid anyways
could be splitting.
Or you could have depression. You could have a lot of things based on this description.

All those things can also coexist, and it is also entirely possible that you do have some issues in your life but not fulfil the diagnostic criteria for any disorder. Everyone has some shit going on in their life and you can definitely work on them without an official diagnosis or even without a self-diagnosis. The thing is that to diagnose any disorder, be it personality or something else, requires a screening by a trained professional and it's very hard to do over the internet by anons just reading a list of issues.

not in any way an expert, but from my understanding the amount of ram doesn't matter if your gpu is shit. it looks like both computers are fine, even though 512 GB is the bare minimum in my opinion. if you have the option to go for 1 TB or more, i'd say go for one with at least 1 TB. if you have an external hard drive and diligently sort out your files so they don't clog up your hard drive, it should be fine with 512 GB though.

if those are your only two options, i'd go for the 1st option. 16 gb ram should be just fine for modern games but if it's mostly retro stuff you're playing you should be good either way!

This is probably very retarded and socially inept of me but I really would like some advice/guidance, nonnas.
I matched with this woman on a dating app, we have quite a bit of an agegap (I'm 23, she's 37), but she said she didn't mind me being younger. Anyways, thing is what she wants and what I want are very different, she wants some real commitment, going the extra mile for the relationship while I don't really want that right now, I just want to try dating for the first time. But retard me didn't fucking say that, I did say I was unsure and such but. She also said she's prone to yelling and that's something I can't take at all.
We have a date arranged for tomorrow, I kind of don't want to go but I said I wanted to go, this is so fucking stupid of me, but I am realizing dating and all is just way too much energy-consuming and I don't want it, we've only talked for a week and I'm already exhausted talking to someone everyday outside of work. I don't think I want to be in a relationship, I just want to be alone as I have been for all my life. But how do I say this to her? Or do I just go to the date tomorrow? It would be my first ever date, but it will also be with someone I'm probably not attracted to, she said she is currently obese, which is fine whatever, but I am not into that either, I haven't seen her (she didn't put pics of herself, but she said she isn't good-looking so 'don't expect too much' but I'm very mid-looking too), I've talked to her on call. What do I do nonnas? She asked me if I am looking forward to tomorrow and I was like 'yeah!' but I'm not.

No, she is definitely a woman, even if you'd think maybe she just had a very, very convincing female voice, she talked about feeling dysphoric and such as a lesbian in our frankly pretty shitty, religious country.
But I really want to cancel, it's so shitty of me though, because I've pretended I'm up for it but the type of commitment and relationship she wants is not something I can give to her. And that's going to come up sooner or later so I should pull the plug while we aren't so deep. Right?

How can I stop feeling sadness over always being perceived as weird? Even when I tried to be as normal as possible people said I'm really weird. I don't really care what people think about my interests or appearance(I have very uncommon features that don't help at all) but the fact that I'm a drifting weirdo just hits me sometimes and it makes me feel very sad and isolated.

I only glanced at the first few sentences until it dawned on me what it was. Now I'm scared when they get back they're gonna think I read the whole thing.

there is no easy solution. You HAVE to take that first step and be unapologetically insane until it feels normal and it fucking sucks. I had awful anxiety when I started wearing lolita and other alt fashions out in public, I was a shaking nervous wreck and it sparked lots of conversations with strangers, good and bad. But it feels like getting called a freak by strangers helped my anxiety in a weird way like some sort of exposure therapy. It was my greatest fears come to life but all I could do in the moment was laugh because who the fuck cares, I was on the adrenaline high of doing what made me happy. Not saying you have to go that route of course, but it sounds like there you're missing out on things you want to do because your anxiety and fear of rejection is holding you back. Go to parties, be loud, talk to strangers even when you're scared shitless. Even if you're cringe, do what you love. Just build a tolerance to that rejection and fear, get used to people thinking you're weird or crazy and eventually you don't care anymore and that feeling of power is incredible.

Just some basic changes to appearance can go a long way honestly. Find what colors, cuts, and accessories are flattering to your body type/skin tone.

very simply put: find out your body shape, face shape and what season you are, or at least what undertones you have. then dress and do your makeup, if you use any, in a way that flatters you, but I need to add that people often wear cheap looking materials and don't get why they might come off as looking frumpy.

Have you ever consulted any of your friends for advice on what they think you are and what your tone is? Maybe ask if any of your female friends, real life or online, would be willing to go shopping with you or help determine your skintone, face shape, body type, etc. don't change yourself entirely and your style and your appearance if you don't want to to fit the trend or what suits your color or tone, just find something you like. Maybe drag someone to go shopping with you, buy a couple products or pieces you like.

The most important thing is to enjoy doing it, don't lose yourself in wanting to be presentable to someone else. By adapting a style and a hair color or makeup style that's completely disingenuous to you and not something you actually like, then it comes across as tryhard. Don't bend to any trends or let anyone talk you into anything you think looks awful on you

What if I put my hair up in a ponytail and cut it off? I’ve been wanting to have short hair for so long, not because of style but just because I’m so tired of long hair and having to put it in a ponytail or bun so I can look presentable. My mom doesn’t want me to cut my hair; I’m 30 years old.
Like, would it look really bad? I don't care if it’ll look a little bad, I don’t care for my appearance, but to a certain extent you know. I don’t have haircut money and I live rurally and don’t drive so I wanna do it myself.

Should I reach out to that one friend who ghosted me all of the sudden 5 years ago?
I've been thinking about her recently, part of me feels like I should respect her choice to drop me (it's tiny bit complicated since we were kinda romantically involved and at the point she ghosted me she moved to another country and started building a new life for herself but it never sounded in our conversations like she has any resentment or whatnot), but I miss how well we got along, I rarely meet people who I have so much in commmon with, I don't miss the romantic part, just the friendship. On one hand, whats the worst that can happen, she will just ignore my message if she doesnt want contact, right?

Curious about the lolcow school of thought on men who are obsessed with women… like, girl-crazy. I know a guy who’s addicted to Tinder and dating — not even necessarily sex, I don’t think — like it’s a drug. Willing to drive hours away for single first dates, obsessed with women celebrities he finds attractive, kinda pornsick (ofc,) overly nice to any women he meets but doesn’t bring the same energy for men. Also tries to keep up to date about libfem feminist thought (kek.)

I know him because he’s a really smart guy in my major and he’s nice to talk to about our field, but his life situation outside of that strikes me as yikes. He also really likes alcohol, so I wonder if it’s the same mental processes?

I don't trust such guys. Pornsickness and obsession with famous women is a huge turn-off, plus alcohol… pretending to be a profem guy while being a womanizer gives me predator/manipulator vibes. I've known similar guys and they're the scrotiest scrotes in the world, with a lot of shit hidden behind this "charming and progressive" don juan persona (just make them feel comfortable and ask about previous relationships). They use that parts of libfem thought that are convenient for them, of course (which doesn't mean they'll necessarrily respect your boundaries or won't push their kinks on you). It doesn't even take that much time before they start showing their true colors because they're not that self-aware. But some women surely are naive enough to think they're the good ones.

He’s average, even after putting quite a bit of effort into his looks. Like no girl would look at him and be like, “oh, he’s hot!” But he’s not necessarily ugly either. He’s mentioned Hayley Williams from Paramore and Zooey Deschanel, and that he’s more into alt and bad girls than other types.

He loves pretty women way more than even the typical guy, which gets combined with his passion for statistics (our major, lel.) so personally I think the Tinder obsession is like him playing a slot machine, the numbers game, in trying to find the “best one.” He struck gold once with an ex who was a super pretty and smart sorority girl, so I wonder if he’s trying to do it again. I lowkey slut shame him and was able to tease him into finding out that he keeps track of every woman he has ever slept with in a list on his phone, which he says is for health reasons, but I think adds to the theory about this being a game for him.

He's an ugly man who thinks getting women out of his league will fix his self wroth issues. The list and him being obsessed with the one actual pretty girl he got proves this.
I had this ugly female friend, greasy hair, shitty outfits, very weird attitude and she also had a list of guys that showed her interest on her phone which she once read to us, most were either rich or studying in super prestigious schools but the "interest" in question was like texting her on an anonymous forum once or sending her a dm once on Instagram.
Your friend is I think struggling to with self worth issues just like my friend and that's why he's using those women to fix his ego. He sounds disgusting and I'd never talk to a man like that. Most guys who are obsessed with super pretty girls are redflags, they're %99 super porn addicted with folders filled with the women they're obsessed with and he unfortunately probably also ranks you like he does to other girls. He isn't a cute girlcrazy guy, he's a porn addict who's preying on women that aren't interested in him and keeping a list after he uses them.

His research is interesting and he’s definitely a smart guy, but even just for a friendship, his messy personal life is hard to overlook. He might move to his ex’s city after graduation (they’re still friends), and if this rich and pretty woman actually takes him back… man, I’d feel so sorry for her. I wonder how much she knows.

In my case I've been like this since I was a little kid because of that hypopituitary thing, it's just that right now it's a little bit worse than usual. I had random periods when I was way more tired than usual or had much lower blood sugar than usual for no particular reason before covid too. I think I caught covid in april/may 2020 and it took me months to recover, I couldn't even see a doctor to get meds or even just get tested because it was when lockdowns were imposed in a shit ton of countries when shit was nearly unmanageable but after I fully recovered like three months later I was just fine. I think the only noteworthy thing since then is that my sex drive is way lower than before I caught covid but I have no way of knowing if it's the direct cause of that issue. These past few months I've been just fine as well, I keep wearing masks in public transport because people are legit disgusting, but I eat more and more to compensate for how tired I feel these days.

late reply but having worked in the movie theater before it's not bad at all. Working the food stand is pretty much the same as any food job but it was almost always dead on the weekdays and got a bit boring. There was lots of free time where everyone would go outside to smoke, and we got free popcorn. Also we got to take home the promotional posters and standees once the movie stopped showing so I have several life sized cardboard celebrities kek. I actually preferred the theater cleaning position. Since the theater was usually dead the cleaning was not bad, and on weekdays you could literally just sit and watch whole movies on the clock.

It's hit or miss, there's some "real" asian brands (they have a flag next to the brand name) and then it's all aliexpress reselling.

For cosmetics it's legit but overpriced.

>>1527982
check the pictures in the reviews so see how the fabric looks in real life.

look for items that aren't made of synthetics. Maybe denim since even cheap denim tends to last longer than other fabrics in the same price range.

My personal tip is to favor loose cuts because you'll put less strain on the seams, you'll sweat less so they won't need to be washed as often, and they can be layered easily if they turn out more transparent than planned or if I want to protect them from the inside with an undershirt. I have one aliexpress blouse I love and wear every season and I managed to make it last 2 years so far even though the fabric is Shein-tier. Though I also made sure to pick a color that would look good with some color fading.

Idk if this is a legitimate political theory but for every political resistance or revolutionary group, isn't it true that there's two kinds of people within them: the first kind who joined because there is no other alternative, they have nothing to their names and nothing to lose and are actual peasants under a regime and the second kind which are bored and simply decide to latch onto a fringe movement/cause? I don't mean necessarily that these people would get along or be part of the same group but both would identify as an "anarchist" for example. However the first kind would be taken into custody, interrogated/prosecuted, and jailed while the second type of person wouldn't.
For example, the first type is Italian anarchists peasants fleeing a fascist regime and at worst, the Italian anarchists that actually assassinated political figures; the second type is more like those twitter communists and at worst, the antifa losers who come from out of state to start chaos with their pathetic protests.

Yes I think you can try dating and if you find the right person they won’t judge you and will be understanding about what you are going through.
That said, I also highly recommend looking into other ways of gaining real life human contact (local hobby clubs, social events at local stores and venues, volunteering, even bumble bff) because placing all your hopes of alleviating loneliness on a potential romantic partner is very dicey. Even if a relationship turns out perfect it’s still not everything to fulfill a full social life, so it’s good to also look into seeing people platonically in person and possibly making more real life friends or even just friendly acquaintances you can spend more time around.

No. 1528914

Also adding on, Americans do NOT like when men don’t cut their nails, it’s seen as lazy and gross instead of elegant, usually because men have dirty yellow nails if they’re not cutting them, rather than actually having nice clean ones. Most American women will react in disgust if men don’t trim their nails.

Some of us do, there are plenty (like a lot) of women who don't get nail extensions due to things like personal preference and/or work. Whether or not long nails are common depends on where you live too, like in big cities it's like the standard to have acrylics and things like that. I live somewhere small and I get comments on my long nails a lot lol.
The men keep long nails just don't groom themselves tbh kek. Men don't take care of their hands/nails like women do so it's not intentional, they're not grooming and they most likely aren't keeping them clean either. Ladies here know to stay away from long-nailed men (well, most of us anyway).

I'm going to be honest with you, years ago I was just like you and I personally think just keeping up with the news and new trends and celebrity gossip should be enough. I've always been a turbo weeb and the reason why I had a hard time bonding with others when much younger wasn't just because we didn't like the same TV shows, I noticed in hindsight that it's because we barely had anything in common to begin with so my peers from middle school to university just wouldn't see any reason to hang out with or even make small talk with a brown girl like me who's too poor to hang out literally anywhere or have hobbies that can't be accessed without the internet.

Just be yourself, don't act like a sperg, try to know what's trendy or more generally popular with your peers in a general sense (like idk, I had coworkers in my previous job talking about Harry Potter being their childhood and people who didn't know shit about it still participated by asking questions about why it's so appealing or whatever), don't force yourself to get into hobbies just to socialize because it WON'T work at all. And keep in mind that sometimes depending on context, talking to normal people isn't always worth it, and I'm saying this based on how I was trying too hard to seem like a normie in high school and now I barely remember any of classmates' faces or voices or names and it's not affecting me whatsoever, it was a total waste of time and energy and I should have told them all to fuck off like I always wanted to and not eat with me during lunch break just because they mistakenly thought I was all alone and abandoned and sad while I was happily minding my own business and getting some rest from them. You said you're poor, pirating some video games, movies and TV shows you could like that other people like could be a start. Same with manga and novels I guess but that depends on which manga are considered normie-tier in your country and generation.

>do I really have to watch trash like Euphoria and pretend I care about Ice Spice?

Do you really want to have long conversations with people who like that kind of stuff? It's not even sarcasm, it's a real question you should ask yourself. Watching TV shows with several seasons is a timesink, you think it could be worth your time and be fun or not?

It's not on you to take the brunt of the responsibility for the conversation when it's very much two-sided. If other people can't talk about things other than the trash they consoom, then it's their fault too. You may feel there's something wrong with you, but there really isn't.

Anon you sound a bit like you think you are a speshul snowflake. Anime is mass produced crap too, just in a different package. Most of the people I know don't only watch Marvel or Euphoria, many have "nerdy" hobbies too like video games, watch obscure films, like weird music, watch anime etc. I think many people have some interesting stuff they are passionate about if you just scratch the surface a bit. Ask what they like and ask what they like about it etc. and you have a conversation going most likely. You can also talk about other shit than media, like the situation you are in (school, work etc), life experiences…

ALSO, hobbies or the media you consume should not be what defines your personality. I think this anon >>1528995 has good points, however I really think even the most turbonormiest of turbonormie can be interesting in some way and you could have some things in common with them. You don't have to like everybody or even get along (god knows I find a lot of ppl annoying) but it makes your life easier if you try to think other people as complete humans with fulfilling lives too.

If you try and keep up by sinking hours and hours of your time into consuming media you don't like you will just become resentful and frustrated because of how one-sided the investment will be. Because they will never put time in getting to know about the media you like the same way you do for them.

I had no time or energy to watch all the latest anime shit (there's basically social pressure to be a weeb in my country) so what I did was spend a bit of time scrolling on social media reading hot takes about said anime shit and looking at pictures and then mash it all up to form a fake opinion. Then I just got bored/tired of interacting with these people who didn't give a single fuck about me.

Hmm… ok to be honest if I was in your shoes i would have talked to a boss as soon as I came in late because I’m too anxious to wonder if I’m “in trouble” —being in trouble is fake but it stresses me out. But if I got through the day without seeing a boss I probably wouldn’t say shit about it unless someone asked me, more likely just shooting yourself in the foot to bring it up, and I would stop worrying after a few days (fyi a lot of jobs have fine print in the handbook that says they can’t write you up for things that happened more than 72hrs or 3 shifts in the past but you’d have to read your handbook to know)

How much are you supposed to contribute to a wedding registry? One of my friends from graduate school invited me to her wedding and instead of wedding gifts, you can contribute money to her honeymoon. This is the first time I've been invited to something like this so I'm not sure how much to give. I'd say we've known each other like 2-3 years and we hang out like once every two months.

If you plan on doing photorealistic renders then yes you need a GPU, cycles(renderer in Blender) takes a toll on a shit GPU or if you try to render with your CPU. If you plan on going for a stylized cartoony style Evee is your game, you can also create photorealism with Evee but it's shitter looking since it's not realtime. If your modelling and rendering for videogames then you shouldn't need a fancy GPU and can stick to Evee, if your modelling for commercial shit then Cycles is necessary so you'd want to invest in a GPU.

Eitherway Cycles or Evee, Blender is better than Autodesk Maya lel.

Not American, but I thought this was a universal thing. There's data about how Indian and Chinese men are single now because there are more men than women there, Japanese men are called "herbivores" because they're too busy with work, too tired and/or too depressed/hopeless to even want relationships or to maintain them if they want them, here in Europe I wouldn't really know based on my personal observations because I'm avoiding men like the plague but straight women are definitely getting married later in life than before and are enjoying their lives before settling down, which means that we can supposed men are also getting married later than before, I don't know about dating though.

Not me, but a moid friend of mine had a (legitimately) abusive stalker ex-girlfriend die in a car accident, and he felt completely relieved afterwards and not guilty about his feelings at all. When he told me about it he said "I'm not trying to say it's a good thing it happened but what goes around comes around".

People who were in abusive situations don't all behave the same way. And every abusive situation is different and your relationship to the perpetrator, the nature of the abuse, your history together, their current presence in your life, the danger they pose to you in the present/future is all unique. It's not even clear what you mean by "abusive situations like that" because there is no description of what the abusive situation was besides that she was an ex-girlfriend and a stalker.

What’s the best medication for anxiety? Mine is so bad I can’t get myself to talk to a therapist. I’ve made countless appointments and never show up. Due to a mixture of not knowing what to expect, how much I’ll have to talk, etc. Last time I went was as a minor and they were expecting me to open up completely. I don’t wanna have to talk a lot, I just wanna get a prescription and be done with it. Can they do that? It’s just so debilitating I need to do something about it by June.

Usually they prescribe a basic SSRI to start you off. You’d probably need to be diagnosed with a serious panic attack disorder to get anything stronger like Xanax/benzos because they come with a risk of dependency. Beta blockers are also prescribed off-label sometimes.
personally I didn’t like ssris because it made my head spin and I felt unmoored in some weird indescribable way, but they completely took away my social anxiety! So that was nice.

Nona, first I'm sorry you're struggling with anxiety. It sucks. Unfortunately though there is no OTC medicine for anxiety, it has to be prescribed. You will not be able to just walk in to a psych office, say hi, get Rx and leave. You will have to do an intake appointment and then an appointment with a psych to discuss your issues and determine a regimen. My appointments are usually less than 20 minutes. I know it's hard but you have to see the process through - Nobody here can tell you what medication is best because there are many factors involved, such as your health, any comorbidities, interactions with other medications, etc. The office I go to, the therapist is an entirely different person than the psych who handles your Rx. But the psych does need to have an understanding of your issues in order to help determine what medication will work best.

There is a reason you have to go through these hoops, some medications may not agree with you or be right for you. Please don't go to some fly by night pill mill style operation that will just give you whatever you want. I suggest bringing a friend with you or seeing about telehealth where you can be seen from the comfort of your home if you can. Either way you are just going to have to bite the bullet and follow through, you are halfway there by realizing you need help and are seeking it out.

Good luck nonnie, I hope things get better for you.

There is no "best medication", it's a matter of trial and error. First line medical treatment is an SSRI. Anyway your anxiety is never going to improve if you "just wanna get a prescription and be done with it". Probably what keeps your anxiety going is not dealing with your issues and having this kind of coping mechanism.

No. 1530588

>>1530582
Just to add to this Nona's input, this kind of coping mechanism will absolutely snowball. Avoidant behavior will get worse and it will control your life. Medication is only one part of the equation to treating anxiety, the other part is addressing behaviors and bad habits that become ingrained with it.

No. 1530597

>>1530588
Yeah exactly, and you have to feel anxiety and experience coping with that feeling in order to reduce it. Any pill you could take that will instantly relieve your anxiety, will make your anxiety way worse over time. SSRIs and others are useful for getting to a point where you can work through your issues in therapy or on your own if you're very capable. But I don't think anyone should be on that shit long term unless it's completely necessary.

No. (But also sometimes yes if you have no credit or bad credit and want a certain type of job.)

The idea behind getting the card is so you can build good credit (easiest way to do that is get a credit card and use it occasionally and pay it off immediately for a few years.) Jobs can require you let them run a credit and background check before hiring you. There are jobs that deal with financial information where they want you to have a good credit score because the logic goes that if you have good credit you aren't in debt so you will be less likely to steal from the company or its clients. This is obviously stupid but so it goes. I've heard of companies that stopped running credit checks entirely because it's a useless waste of time and money, plus a lot of new hires had horrible credit from college debt, but plenty still do it. Dunno if you're a burger but it's legal in most states to deny someone any job based on bad credit, only restricted in like a dozen states and they have exceptions that allow it for financial jobs; not sure about other countries.

Hopefully I'm not talking out my ass, this isn't my area of expertise I just heard about it in a job I had hiring people and I googled a couple things just now to refresh my memory.

The current huge wave of bandwagoner gendies will die out somewhat when it stops being trendy in favor of some other new group identities. Before this the big identities were just being gay and mentally ill (and anorexic) on tumblr which eventually spawned the troon wave, before that it was being scene and before that emo and cutting yourself, before that grunge, before that goth and punk and hippies and beats and so on. Adolescents will always be the same about wanting quirky nicknames and new haircuts and flashy outfits and body mods and self destructive behaviors. Trend cycles are so fast now and teenagers are so sheltered that identities centered around strict fashion rules and music gatherings is less viable, though, so gender and sexuality and mental illness lists are winning out now. I’m guessing gender ID will take a backseat to some new big teenager label eventually but not completely be gone.

Yeah. The AGPs are unmasking hard and fast now that talking about how being a toddler girl gives them boners.

Detransitioners, and the massive amounts of money to be made from them by the same pharma companies that encouraged them to troon out, will help make troonism unfashionable. The narrative will shift from TRAs being kind and accepting souls to TRAs actively encouraging mentally ill children to mutilate themselves, honestly it's already going in that direction now that everyone is fed up with trannies in women's prisons and women's sports and women's day celebrations.

When I see shit like this I think about how humor on tumblr was still kind of similar in 2011/2012 yet it didn't feel as obnoxious. Is it me whose sense of humor changed or is it that tumblr users over the past decade all started having a stick of their ass? Seriously that post doesn't feel like a funny joke, more like a perfectly manufactured series of sentences meant whose only goal is to make the readers snort for half a second and keep scrolling down at the very best.

well i kinda doubt anyone here will be able to help but i need help identifying an odour. its something I've been able to smell on certain people for years, and it's very strong and hurts my nose to inhale in the same way hair bleach does. it's very unpleasant. i notice that some people i know will occasionally have this smell, like its a chemical emanating from their body, but i only notice it sometimes with them and not always. i remember once someone sat next to me on the bus once and they smelt of this so strongly that i could barely breathe the whole journey.
& no its not weed or something. i have no idea what this smell is and i can't even find the words to describe the specific scent, only that hurts my nose the same way certain chemicals do.
i thought maybe it was ketones but i think that would be a sweeter more acetone-y scent, idk

ime worse because modern religious men want you to be conservative when it fits them but also want you to break the religious rules when it fits them. Eg be conservative in terms of traditional gender roles within the household but they also want to have pre-marital sex and watch porn and for you to work 40 hrs a week while taking on all the chores and cooking.

The only thing that comes to my mind is the smell I encounter sometimes, it's suffocating to me, especially in hot weather. Unfortunately, I don't know what it is exactly, but it's a chemical they put in some perfumes and deodorants, and it smells kind of like hot iron. Might be a chemical itself or the way it "reacts" with certain people, idk.

I've dated someone religious (and was raised Christian myself) and the issue wasn't so much him but his family. His mother would constantly tell me my skirts were too short and I looked like a whore when I wore lipstick, his dad would tell me working at a hotel wasn't respectable, on and on. The moid I would say acted a bit more polite than most other men I knew and he wasn't quite as extreme as his parents but he believed some pretty fucked up things like all women who get abortions are going to burn in hell and I just couldn't stay with someone like that. Definitely dodged a bullet by not marrying into that family though.

A friend keeps screenshotting and posting tons of cringy joke discussions from her six instagram roleplay accounts that all talk to each other and badly imitate a bunch of anime characters we like.
I don't want to tell her that it's shit but I cannot fake enjoyment either. It's terribly ooc and unfunny and I never reply to it so you would assume that she understands that I am not into it but she doesn't.

She genuinely can't get it into her head that she needs to eat less and move more to stay thin.
You need to support your friend to make healthier choices. Go on walks together, offer to cook some meals for her so she doesn't get tempted by Doordash, watch a movie and bring low calorie snacks. Or talk about how much she's saving by not ordering food/eating out. If she doesn't change her lifestyle she won't lose weight.
>>1533188
I suppose it helps the ones who have binge eating issues, if the food can't fit into your stomach then you can't binge. Obviously the stomach stretches over time so that's why so many of them get fat again. A friend of mine has considered everything from lipo to weight loss surgery to hypnotism to anorexia challenge diets, but hasn't even tried anything that'll help her lose weight slowly and steadily, like a normal diet and mild to moderate exercise. She's terrified of never losing the weight so she wants instant results. I suppose it's the same for most people who are willing to go to such extreme lengths when they could have gone for a walk instead.

Tbh that term evokes a very specific type for me, career-centered and traditional. Like, I wouldn't call PewDiePie a high achiever even though he's a multimillionaire. It's kind of a shit term tbh. You sure you want to spend your life chasing some bad semantics?

The solution is simple, but not easy. The solution is seeing yourself as greater than all those problems. You're here now, and you've already overcome all that shit. What helped me was thinking that if anyone went through the garbage that I did, they probably would have killed themselves or gotten deep into some addiction. I refuse to let that be me. I refuse to allow things that other people did to me hurt me anymore. I experienced those things, and they've over with now. Nothing has power over me. My parents did a lot of fucked up shit to me, I've been abandoned by other family and friends alike, I've been harassed, stalked, and attacked, and I just don't care anymore. You have to make an internal decision to stop caring. All the messed up things that replay in your head only cause you to suffer because you interpret them as the source of your suffering. You can You can allow them to rule over you, or you say "fuck it, I'm not doing this anymore." You can let go at any time. Like I said, simple, but not easy, because most people identify with being a victim and it feels comfortable to stay there. It's comfortable for blame others for your current suffering because then you don't have to work on yourself.

Question inspired by Picky Eater Test from Unpopular Opinions thread.
What food/drink did you use to hate but now love/don't mind eating/drinking? And vice versa

I couldn't stand prunes at all, but now I actually like them, especially covered in chocolate or in the salads, for example with shredded beets and some walnuts. Could never imagine I'd eat salo/slanina, but I do enjoy it now if it has a little bit of meat, with borscht or other soups. As for falling out of love part, it doesn't really count because it was never my conscious choice, but my mom would feed me goat milk as an infant because she had problems with her own, and I hated it ever since. I could taste and smell it anywhere if it was added to mashed potatoes, pancakes, etc., and refuse to eat it. The smell alone gives me gag reflex.

Same. I was still pretty young too so maybe it's that it's the first culture shift I ever really noticed.

There’s a guy I know, get along with, and really like for the first time ever. I’ve never had a boyfriend before (I’m older than you probably think, this sadly isn’t angsty teen posting), but I feel like this might be the first time!

I was very happy, but there is one thing and it’s destroying me:
I find him quite handsome, so I was afraid he has been a massive manwhore. I know the guy through my brother (they became friends a while back. They’re not super close, but they know each other somewhat well I think), so I asked my brother about the guy’s exes and if he “knows” a lot of girls. My brother said the guy told him he doesn’t like casual sex and takes relationships seriously, but then my brother added “Oh I think [girl] told me she had a thing with him for a short time, not sure what happened there or how serious they were”. [girl] is a girl my brother used to fuck. She’s also someone I really don’t like. The idea of the guy not only having a fuckbuddy but it being the same girl my brother was with has literally made me throw up. Even if they were seriously dating I really don’t like being with a guy who had the same “girlfriend” as my brother. I also don’t like it being her in general.

I don’t know what happened. Neither does my brother. How do I deal with this? Ask the guy? Stop caring? Still care but just leave it uncertain?
I want to scream. I really don’t know if I’m being weird about this. Have any of you been in a similar situation?

No. 1533469

I swear I'm not baiting but I was never familiar with fantasy dog RP or warrior cats fandoms or any of that and I was reading up on sparkledogs in particular and how edgy they were.

Used to hate celery as a kid but everyone around me was always eating it (even without dressing) and kept saying it tasted good, and as a kid it didn't occur to me that I could just… not like certain foods, so I just kept eating some whenever I had the chance until I liked it kek. Actually, like is a strong word, I'd say it's somewhere in between "tolerate" and "like" because I willing go and grab some if it's available to eat, but I would say it's far from something I really like. In adulthood, the same thing has happened with olives. I don't pick them out of my food anymore but I don't mind their taste and what they add to the overall flavor of whatever I'm eating. Would probably not eat them by themselves.

Used to loathe bitter melon as a kid but sometime last year my mom cooked some (as she usually does) and the taste was exactly the same but my brain suddenly liked it. Even with the slight bitter taste, I really liked it. I'd say this is the only food that I've gone from "completely hate" to "completely love."

I don't think there's anything I've loved that I now hate. Usually it's just stuff I overeat in massive amounts and have to avoid for a few years. The taste won't bother me but when I put it in my mouth I'll just want to spit it out (currently it's those danish butter cookies in the blue tin- ate way too many of those fuckers a few years back kek).

Is it really that weird to ask other women for spare tampons/pads? I keep seeing anons in the mtf threads saying no woman would ever ask for another woman in the bathroom for a pad but I’ve done it.

It’s not that weird tbh, it’s just not common to have someone asking for tampons and such since most women just carry emergency pads and tampons in their own purses. I carry emergency pads because I don’t really know if I could actually find another woman in the bathroom, and because most of the women at my workplace don’t have to deal with periods anymore.
I’ve gotten asked before for a pad or a tampon like once while traveling, but that’s kind of expected tbh, not everyone expects their period while traveling.
What makes anons say so is that there’s no way in hell that a woman would see a hulking tranny and would ask specifically to him for a tampon or a pad because normie women don’t think they would carry around such things since they don’t need them.

No. 1533798

>>1533772
Needing to borrow a pad is just a sign of being disorganised. As a woman/teenage girl you would just have one on hand because of paranoia, but of course there are situations where you are unprepared. It's just rare to ever need to borrow one, it's better to just quietly go buy your own pack.

Some nonnas in the MtF thread will sometimes start saying stuff just to piss off lurking troons and remind them that they'll NBAW. One example being the tampon/pad situation, it's not weird between actual women, it just happens rarely because most women are always prepared, and at most it'd be awkward to ask. The thing is that trannies will grasp at straws to validate their identity, so even just admitting to doing these things is enough material to fuel their delusion/fetish, so I can understand why nonnas would say that it never happens. What's certainly true is that no woman, not even handmaidens imo (even they got to have common sense in this situation), would ever ask a troon for a tampon or react positively to him asking for one, and irl you can always tell they're males so there's no way it'd happen accidentally, but troons don't get that.

I've personally never had to borrow a pad from a stranger, since I always come prepared in various ways when going out. The most I've done is borrow one from other women in my family. But I don't see a reason to be ashamed of asking a stranger if you really need it.

I don't personally. Don't know anyone who would ask for a pad anyway, cause most women track their cycle or at least can feel when the period is close, so they would be prepared.
Well, I don't track mine, but if I get caught by the period I don't mind bleeding since for the first few hours I would just stain my panties with little to no blood. So what the point of asking for a pad if there is only small amount of blood that wouldn't bleed? Although I never ran out of pads in the middle of my period.

>sexually harassed or assaulted women
>dated/married/had sex with women decades younger than them
>cheated on their wives/gfs with other women
>even when revealed to have secret hidden relationships, secret pap photos or whatever, secret flirting, suspicious friendships, etc all partners turn out to be women
>were capable of impregnating women multiple times
Then the proof of supposed gayness is:
>he dressed silly once
>he looked at this other guy a certain way

Normie men will get with any woman their pea-brains deem as fuckable and available. Have you seen a man on tinder? They will literally swipe right on any woman as long as she looks somewhat feminine. That's pretty much the nature of normie men.
Your situation sounds stressful because it sounds like you like him, and if you like him yet are thoroughly disgusted with his actions that can definitely cause distress because liking someone isn't like flipping on/off a switch.
If he likes you, and you like him, and you like him enough to keep talking to him and you don't feel bad or shameful after interacting with him, my advice would be to chat with him and make nice conversation (alone, preferably) and then randomly bring up the girl. Like, "hey remember that girl my brother used to date? She was kind of weird lol" (maybe don't say the weird part but like say something that would imply you think she's kind of weird like "maaaan, she was for sure a character lolll" try to feel out the vibes and attitudes in a subtle way. If he reciprocates conversation, then you can lean into something like "she's just not someone I'd choose to hang around, she's just kind of mean". I would say to not talk about how you dislike her right away, keep it light and keep it respectful. You can tell him you dislike her if he seems like he's on the same page (I would advise against outright shit talking her though). Try to coax him into sharing details. Moids loooooooove to infodump personal details to women, especially women they find attractive, you just have to seem like you're interested in hearing it. Then if he starts talking about how she was weird or something you can be like "wtf! damn that's lame!!" You don't even have to be thoughtful about it you can literally say just that kek. Then you can be like "lol that's really lame I can't believe she dis all that please don't tell me you guys still talk!" If he says no, that's good. If he says yes then you can be like "idk…. I just don't really trust her keep your eye out…." then if you guys get even closer or actually start dating you can be honest and tell him you really dislike her and you do not trust her, you do not like the fact that he still talks to her, etc. etc.
You should try to do this if you guys have gotten closer, if he's told you things like he likes talking or hanging out with you, if he is reciprocating the attraction you feel towards him, if you know he likes you, if you guys have "hung out" a few times (do not have sex with this man before you bring the girl up I'm telling you this now) and things have gone well.

I have the same, it's genetic for me.

They have a lot of good stuff in them and aren't so difficult for me to get down, I watch something while I'm drinking them which helps distract. For even less effort you could try Ensure or meal replacement shakes. Another thing I like is just eating a lot of fruit. It's tasty and sugary for energy and should keep you going.

I see weird takes online all the time but I recently saw one that made me curious because I'm a total virgin: some men think making any kind of noise during sex isn't masculine at all, but how does that work? Do they repress any kind of moan and just force themselves to make a resting bitch face then? Or do they stay naturally silent and think that should be the norm? Do they even count breathing a little harder than usual as being emasculating? I thought it was normal to just moan at least a little during sex.

I called to find out cost of visit and what they would do. The lady said first visit ANOTHER ecg. To compare. Now my questions. Is this standard?

A second EKG is normal, but you should insist on additional tests even if it comes back normal because they are not that accurate. Male doctors are really likely to let their female patients die because they brush off our concerns and haven't studied enough to know the symptoms of diseases in women.
Ask him what additional test he would have ordered and insist he order them. If he doesn't, use this exact phrasing: Tell him that you want a copy of your medical notes with your detailed symptoms and his explicit refusal and you want them before you leave. He will try to brush you off, but insist and ask to speak to a practice manager or patient advocate if he doesn't comply. By putting his refusal in the medical notes, if your mom should worsen or die, he's completely medically liable and could lose his license.

Like the other anon said, everyone does feel like that to some extent. I put off taking a shower sometimes too because those feelings are uncomfortable.
However along with the low tolerance to physical discomfort, it's also typical for autists to not deal with transitions very well, which I guess is an extension of having problems with change. So when showering you have to go to a bunch of transitions within a short period of time: being clothed and dry, then being naked and in the shower, and then being out in the cold air again while still wet. That makes it more difficult for autists to take showers compared to most other people.

I do this too, it's more comfortable like that. I have pretty thick and long hair that will bunch up weirdly if I try to pull it all to the sides to fit headphones directly on my ears.

My roommate keeps breaking into my room. Bought a door jam but sometimes I don't put it up because my cat likes sleeping in my bedroom. I've been taking care of him for years (on and off) but thought he reformed, so we moved in together. I loved him but not anymore. He's a drunk, abusive man. I need to leave, everything in the house is mine so it would be hard to leave. I have three beautiful children (animals, two bunnies and a cat) but I don't want to leave them behind in the meantime. Pay his half of the rent to a point but I'm getting tired. I've contacted authorities and the leasing office about this issue, but unfortunately, until he's physically violent or causes extreme damage to property, he can't be removed. What are the best options in this case? I've built this home and made it in case I have a future child, but this isn't the situation to have one in. I don't want to call the cops on him randomly but need some type of help. He got more violent after I had to call the cops recently. He knows they won't do anything unless he puts hands on me. It's so fucked up but I want to feel safe, take care of my kids, have my own one day – just he's taking years of off my life just dealing with it. Is there a way to get him evicted?(USA)

I'm dumb for ever giving him a chance again but he wasn't like this before. He wasn't taking care due to his circumstances before now, yet somehow it's just worse.

Fellow hookup anon here, and I agree.

Men don't like to feel humiliated. If you show them that you don't need them and aren't hooked on their breadcrumbs they will feel inadequate and slighted that you didn't have a breakdown over them.
Just be careful, the majority of men participating in hookup culture are narcissists and discarding them could result in a narcissistic injury that will cause them to want to lash out at you.
They need to be the ones who discard you first after they secured the next supply. Beat em to it. Don't show your hand. Play naïve and then ghost until the end.
When caught, deny.

>is it possible for a girl to basically pump and dump men?
Technically yes but like my reply to the other poster, it is real easy for this to go south, dear anon. Be careful.
I admit it's a thrill to get a guy to come crawling back but if he gets salty there's a chance you could be under legitimate threat. Some of the guys who I have treated as wallets/hookups tried to ~expose~ me and embarrass me on socials, which obv makes them look like obsessed incel freaks BUT you need to have a thick skin and not be terminally online for it to not have an effect on you.
But always remember that crossing the wrong man can end with you being hurt and/or dead. Vet wisely. It's a lot of risk for little reward, imo.

Yeah he’s not going to feel used but you can make him feel like shit in other ways if he thinks he’s about to use you for sex. He’s not going to feel like he won anything over you if you act like the sex was disappointing afterward and if he’s young he’s going to carry that sex insecurity for a long time kek

Same fag but I do think you can make a man feel used sexually if he really is extremely attracted to you and loves you but the feelings aren’t mutual in your end. Some situationship or random hook up isn’t going to make him feel used just from using him for sex alone. You have to find a guy who really really likes you to pull off making him feel bad about being used for sex.

>He is not going to feel used though.
They do, just not in the same ways we would.
We value things differently.
Women tend to feel "used" when we think we've had our emotions and bodies taken advantage of.
Men feel used when it's their money, efforts, and in context of what we're talking about–ego. Of course they value sex and wouldn't see it as inherent loss.
The trick is making men feel belittled for it.

Nonas I'm scared . I ordered my birth certificate online like a week ago, it came the beginning of this week. I paid $40. I checked my cash app and I had $40 extra dollars a few days ago, at first I think for some reason it's a refund from something else. I don't think. I spend the money. Then I check and see that for some reason it was a refund from my county for my birth certificate that I already have. I'm broke as a joke, I'm a neet. I got the money to buy it from a family member, now I've spent the money.
And yesterday i saw cash app tried to charge me for the $40 but I declined from the birth certificate. What do I do? Will I get locked up because I owe the county money? I feel retarded scared.Im in such a weird space I don't know when I'll get the money to repay, yes I know that's sorry ass hell.

I was told that it’s best if you can get a great fit with the loosest hook, because then as the elastic wears out over time you just use tighter hook. But you can also use it if you are in between band sizes, so like you’re really a 31 but they only sell 32 you can put it on the tightest and it will be acceptable

I doubt that blonde hair makes something less obvious because lighter hair will bring more attention to the face, while darker hair can hide wideness/roundness if it's something you're concerned about. Haircut matters more I think. I also heard people use strategically placed highlights to hide or emphasize certain features, maybe try looking into that. Makeup can certainly make you look better. Do you know your color type? This could help with makeup, hair color if you want to change it, and clothes too. Flattering colors really make a difference.

agreed, it's also kind of an insult to yourself because you're aware of the moid-y traits of men yet still go through the hassle of dating one, one you'd lump in with all the other moids. "my nigel" is irritating too though imo. boyfriend/bf is better, it doesn't need to be any nickname

It seems like they're going through a lot of changes now and a lot of people can't see comments on their pins either. Searching anything with the word "girl" in it seems to be impossible now too, probably caused by creeps misusing pinterest to be creepy.

That's why it's called "being under the influence" of a substance
Some strains will give you more munchies than others though, he can try to minimise the influence by carefully choosing the strain

What would you tip your tattoo artist friend after they've already given you a discounted price? Should I like… tip a whole bunch? Or does that defeat the purpose of the artist giving you a "friend" price? For example, last time I was charged $160 for a tattoo about the size of the bottom of a soda can, it took about 45 minutes for him to complete, and tipped $60. Is that stupid? My next one will be about the size and shape of picrel (but not a dragon) and he's charging me $260. How much should I tip? Should I do it based on the time it takes him to complete it? I was thinking $50 but I'm truly lost here, help. I don't want to be inappropriate one way or another with the tip (as in, too low OR too high).

I think it shows goodwill and appreciation nona, I don't think it's stupid at all. I don't think you need to tip so much that you're paying the same amount you'd pay for a normal tattoo+tip, but if you tipped badly or not at all your friend may be sad he did the tattoo at all. In America, we tip 25% for great service, and your $60 was a 37.5% tip. For your $260 tattoo, if you tipped 35% again, it would be $97.5. If you tipped a typical 25%, it would be $65. However, if you combine the two tattoo prices, to make up for overtipping last time…
>160+260 = 420
>25% of 420 = 105
>you already paid 60 from last tip
>105-60 leaves $45 left over
>your tip of 50 is adequate
Idk if this was helpful but thanks for helping me practice percentages kek.

I don't know what the normal price is on tattoos but tipping 60 dollars (that's more than a third or 30% of what you were asked to pay) on top of 160 for less than a hour's worth of work seems exessive to me. What's the point of a friend discount if you're just going to tip a lot anyway? But I guess you can't really decide not to tip now that you've already done so the first time.

Sorry double post but I just thought of one more question. When I hand him the wad of cash should I say how much it is? Like if I tipped $50 for the $260, when I hand him the cash should I say "this is $310" or should I just say thank you and leave him to count it? (Can you tell I have social anxiety? Rip)

Does anyone have any knowledge with autism in Japan? It just occurred to me that it must be hell because japanese culture is all about being subtle and indirect.

i just read somewhere that saying stuff like "we should go (to this event/thing) together" is just an expected and polite thing to say even if you don't want to hang out with the person. Long shot but any autistic Japan nonas here have experiences to share?

Iirc when diagnosing autism in Japan they can’t use some of the criteria that are used in the West because certain behavioral traits and preferences are more commonly engrained into the culture and within the range of normal expectations there.
Yes certain politenesses are more common but there are also things like lack of sarcasm, expectation of quiet in public, more introversion based culture that is more comfortable for autists in some ways. Like on American subways people will have loud arguments on the phone and watch tiktoks out loud on full volume and scream laugh at it and kick their feet around laughing, and in Japan that would be super abnormal.

I'm neither american nor east asian but the autists I've known have been the ones to be awkwardly loud, watching tiktok or other stuff on high volume in public and doing weird stims that include kicking their feet so I think you're wrong.

this was briefly discussed in the ftm thread but what do you do to avoid tgel? I'm invited to a party where I know a tif is coming too. Luckily I'm not close with her so there will be no expectations for me to interact with her so I can avoid her. I'm also planning on wearing long sleeves in case I bump into her so tgel won't come in direct contact with my skin. I know im being paranoid, her hygiene is fine so the risk of her being careless with tgel is small but still I don't want to risk getting tgel on me

ayrt, but I also have money anxiety and I always count it out in front of whoever I'm paying and then give it to them. Removes the tension.
