Anorectal Violence-kun is a male sperg who is known on several imageboards (I'm not sure how many, but probably most of the bigger altchans for sure) for spamming infographics, huge and highly detailed rants against anal sex and calling for someone (not sure who he's addressing these to exactly tbh, maybe the government? Websites that host this content?) to do something to stop the promotion of anal sex. His sole purpose in life is spreading all that information.
I believe it was farmers who found his identity and very old posts, and they found out that he is only this obsessed with anal sex and its negative effects on the body because he has a fetish for healthy natural anuses.

I think this may be a stupid question to ask in the stupid question thread, but can any nonnas please assist. When I was younger I got a 3D model of my skull done at the orthodontist but they noticed I had a deviated septum and some weird growth and sent me to an ENT. ENT said "yeah lol your nose is fucked u have nasal polyps I can't do shit about them bye." So that explained why I've been living like this my whole life. I get sinus infections at least 4 times a year, all originating on the right side that my septum blocks off. Generally bacterial infections because my polyps make crevices for bacteria to grow and because I avoid antibiotics unless I think I might die it'll last for like 3 weeks. The one I'm experiencing now is viral after being coughed and sneezed on by 20 children.
That's the useless backstory and my actual question is, wtf can I do about this without going to the doctor? I do not have doctor or surgery money. I know OTC nasal steroids can shrink polyps, but I can't find any info on how long to use them for this purpose, it just says to ask your doctor. Can any medically trained nonnas please create a DIY treatment plan for me? Thank you in advance.

What do people typically talk about when hanging out in person with someone new that they want to hopefully become friends with?
I know this question sounds autistic as fuck and I swear I do have some semblance of social skills, but I asked this uni classmate if she wants to have lunch together sometime and she said yes and now I don't know what to do. It's been ages since I made a new friend and I'm so used to only talking to the same couple people that I'm super close and open with that I've forgotten how to interact with someone that I barely know yet. On top of that, my close friends are for the most part pretty eccentric and probably aren't a good reference for how most normies act socially speaking. I also dread not being able to drink since that would usually be my cheat for social confidence, but she's from a Muslim family so that's off the table.
How do people talk in these situations, what kind of stuff makes people think you're cool and interesting to hang out with? How is friendship made??
No. 1570588
>>1570567If you don't know her well, just start the time by saying you're glad you could get together, and then if you need to spur convo, ask innocuous questions about the class you share or her course of study. From there, you have to just follow the flow of the convo. Best advice: really listen to what she is saying, and from there you'll naturally have questions or things you can relate to her that are analogous or relevant. Don't fret if there are quiet moments. If it makes you feel more comfortable, before you get together, go through a list of basic kinds of open-ended questions - how is she liking uni, what does she think about x prof, does she have siblings/superficial follow-ons about how she grew up, etc. Note: don't be weird and pursue topics that seem uncomfortable to her. That's why it's important to
listen actively - which means listening to understand, not to prep your next comment.
Agree that alcohol is a nice lubricant, but you'll be alright without. Just take the position that this is a human across the table. Think about what you might like someone to ask you/how you'd like someone to interact with you.
And keep your expectations managed. It might not be The Best Brunch Ever, but if you get along, it could be the start of a friendship. And if not, that's OK, too.

>>1570586What made you ghost them in the first place? And do you actually want to reconnect, or do you just feel like you should? If you couldn't keep up your end of the relationship because you weren't feeling connected to it, maybe that's a sign that it's time to move on. If it was depression or something that made it hard to keep in touch even though you wanted to, then I think it's better to just be honest. You're sorry for dropping off, you had a rough time but you're trying to reconnect with people, you've realized you struggle with reaching out first but it doesn't mean you don't care about them, whatever's true. Set expectations about the kind of friend you are and hold yourself accountable if you're trying to change, but don't make promises you can't keep.
It also depends on the other person and how long it's been since you last talked. Some people will pick up like nothing happened if they get a funny image months later, others will get one after a week and feel hurt that you didn't care enough to address the silence between. That's why it's better to be honest and feel out their reaction to that.

>>1570625>What made you ghost them in the first place?tbh in retrospect it was honestly quite stupid. she was friend i had way back in elementary and we had always get along just fine. she was the only few people i felt comfortable enough to mess around with and never felt fake around. even though we always kept contact, when the pandemic was over it felt different hanging around with her. not because she change but because i felt like such a bother to her. i try to revert back to the fun energetic personality i usually was around her but it felt disingenuous and i assumed maybe she could of sense it to. i dunno. i just felt i was being annoying and liar. that i was no longer the person i was a couple years ago (if i ever was actually that). i suddenly just started crying. i asked her if she hated me. she didn't but it made me feel worst because it confirmed that only i was the one who saw a problem. i felt guilty everytime they offered to hang out and sent me stuff to spark conversation. i just felt like i wasn't worthwhile and was just wasting everyone else's energy. so i figured it was best if i just left.
it's only been a year since this happened but it sucks to see such a long relationship end because of my own stupidity.
>And do you actually want to reconnect, or do you just feel like you should?honestly now i think of it, i probably shouldn't. i think the only reason i want to talk to them is because i don't really have anyone else. i have such a hard time making friends and i never seem to go beyond acquaintances. i clearly have my own problems and i dont want to bother her anymore than i already have

>>1570921What made you start feeling like you were a bother to her? That kind of self-loathing is really insidious because you get trapped in a prison of shame where nothing will actually ever make you feel better. You either let your paranoia eat you alive or you seek reassurance and then let the guilt of that eat you alive. When those are the only options left, then of course withdrawing on your own terms and being alone is going to be the least painful option. But you have to realize that doing that is just feeding into the cycle.
>i think the only reason i want to talk to them is because i don't really have anyone else.Is there any reason other than your perceived burdensomeness that you should just cut ties forever? There's nothing shameful about not wanting to be alone, and it sounds like the main reason you don't want to reconnect is because of your own guilt. It's natural that people change and as a consequence their relationships can change too, but if you know that you weren't acting rationally when you started to distance yourself then isn't it worth trying to challenge that guilt?
>i clearly have my own problems and i dont want to bother her anymore than i already haveShe was still trying to hang out with you and have conversations even after you broke down. There's that no-win prison again: you can't accept her friendship without feeling shameful for having doubted it, but every time you decline to engage because of that shame the guilt just starts to compound instead. You're worthless for wanting her friendship and you're worthless for squandering it. That's a warped perspective. It's good that you recognize that you have problems, but the next step (and the harder step) is not letting them consume you so utterly. The good thing about reconnecting with someone after a long time is that you can take your time in typing up how you want to approach them again, and make sure that you say what you really want to say without the danger of getting caught up in emotions in the moment, you know?
Sorry for the novel I know this isn't the advice thread. It just hit close to home and I've lost so many good or potential connections with people by sabotaging our communication out of self-hatred without even realizing it. It doesn't have to end that way, and even if it still does, it's better for it to end that way out of mutual understanding instead of avoidance. At least in the former, you're humanizing yourself enough to acknowledge that you're worth an open conversation about it and that trying to resolve ambiguity doesn't make you a burden on others.

Is it normal for parents to keep a bedroom in their house for their adult children to stay when they come home? My sister is upset because my parents are turning her bedroom into a room dedicated to a new hobby they have. They don't have any other guest room. If it's relevant I never had a bedroom in their house because I never lived there, and as an adult I would stay in my sister's room when I visited, so I'm not really sure how to feel about the issue. On one hand I think it's a bit entitled to expect parents to keep a room in their house for you when you don't live there, but on the other hand I think any other family I have or house I have been in has at least had a guest room if not just keeping the adult children's rooms as their own bedroom, so maybe it is something that normal parents just naturally want to have for their kids.

Maybe that's what your sister is doing, grieving. Does she actually care about a space in a place where she no longer lives? Nah, but it is symbolic and it meant something to her.

It was a quick outpatient "surgery" that didnt require any anesthetic where an ENT doctor got a pair of tiny clampy tongs (in pic), shoved them up my nose, and just pinched it off.

Still overpriced for something that took 10 minutes, and it might be out of your budget, but I no longer have to mouthbreathe during allergy season, which is such a huge quality of life improvement.
No advice for if you don't go for surgery unfortunately. Definitely be careful though, because some nasal sprays can give you really awful rebound congestion.

Whereas women have to diet and shave and apply make up to attract men, men have to do nothing to attract women.

For anyone who had sex with a really pretty guy, did it feel any different? How much their looks played into the pleasure of the sex? I am not asking for comparisons between someone you were not attracted, I mean between someone you are attracted but isn't a model and someone conventionally attractive.

>>1572941 said, they're seen as

victim. I think a big part of it is that some keep it to themselves and remain somewhat functional (at least in the first while), some will rob their parents' house and you 'shouldn't be quick to judge'. Though it's still an insult where I live, I thought only junkies said this kek.

>>1573014I took the virginity of a guy who was fucking gorgeous but awkward/maybe a lil on the spectrum so still a virgin at 26. Afterwards I was like.. how the fuck was that better than alot of sex I've had with experienced men. Was he actually that good or was I just visually getting off on it more. He was super conscientious and non cocky. But not overly nervous either.
He had long strawberry blond hair, weirdly thick hair for a guy and clean/shiny. Slim body with definition, hung but didn't seem to know it or point it out like alot of men just have to. Great face. I've been sick of men the last while but that's a fond memory in the bank.

how do we prevent bullying amongst kids? Telling a bullied kid to ignore the bullying doesn't work, telling them to fight back or stand up for themselves makes things worse, telling them to talk to a teacher will do nothing. The best way is probably to teach bullies not to bully but I genuinely think that bullies aren't aware of what they do is bullying

>>1573149Bullies are aware of what they’re doing, specially if they constantly do it. The only thing that’s left to do is let the kids tell their teachers/people in charge of the disciplinary process, so they can do their jobs and try to change the bullies’ minds about bullying.
Some kids suck ass though, and they will never stop bullying other kids, but that’s an issue that the bully’s parents should deal with.
The solution for when a kid won’t stop bullying/being aggressive and such is expelling the bully from that school and hoping that any severe consequences makes them stop, specially if the school has talked to the child and the parents constantly to find a way to solve their issues, which is usually counseling and psychological if not psychiatric help.

>>1573149Story time, little brother said there was a bully in class and he didnt like how the bully was treating kids. Bro is 9 years old. The bullys dad is a sherrif (big surprise there). One day, at the playground, he sees the bully picking on a muslim kid. He walks right over and knocks the bully off his feet and told him he had no reason to be mean to the other kid.
That night, we are talking about it, and i mention (im 28 btw, huge age gap) that bullies are a product of their home life, and no one gets the full picture on what happens behind closed doors.
The next day, the bully picks on my brother and he turned around and said “im sorry you have a bad home life but you could try being nice and making school a nice place. Ill be your friend, but you cannot be a jerk.” The kid just blankly looked at him and walked away. The bully has been kinder/reprimanded since, and the dad has been mia from pickup.

Diff anon but I got bullied for years and never told anyone. My friend who was also being bullied by the same group eventually told per parents though so I'd to explain to back her up. The teacher got back to our parents with the whole 'they have a bad home life, bless em' thing and let it go. But I sure as hell went up to them and said "Mrs x says you have a bad home life" Thats all it took to never be bothered again. Tbh I had a bad home life too. There's a reason why I didn't feel like I could tell my parents about the issue.

I was bullied a lot in the Scouts (not USA so our Scout troops are all co-ed) by a group of girls who hated me because I was on the spectrum and had different interests. They were really mean and catty, openly mocking me, excluding me from games/activities and making fun of me when I was just minding my own business drawing or making rope knots. Boys got into literal fights and even stole other kids' personal items and they never got into trouble.
I told one of the older leaders and she called me a snitch, later overheard her telling another scout leader that I was annoying and she didn't like me because I'm a tryhard teacher's pet. I was just a little kid from a literal meth hovel, I still don't know what her deal was.

>>1574378Because sexism used to be a little more common, but it's largely died out and misogyny has completely replaced it from what I can tell. Sexism is like a grandfather who truly believes that a woman is a more delicate, fragile being who is inferior to a man, but that also believes that it is his duty to protect her because he is stronger. So while he expects a woman to stay in the home and raise children, it is also his duty as a husband to fund her needs, to never hit her even if she hits him first, and for women to be treated with a modicum of respect even if they are strangers (carrying bags, offering seat, ect.)
Misogyny is just the hatred of women. Some men come to this view because they believe that women are inherently inferior, while others think we merely deserve it because all of the bad things that womenkind has done. This is a much more violent form of sexism and is mostly what you see today. Misogyny glorifies violence against women and you'll see videos passed around of men being excited to watch women getting beat up by much larger men.
Both have existed throughout history and misogyny is not a recent invention, but it has become more common (compared to the first hand accounts I hear from the past 70-80 years). It actually shocks me a little to encounter sexism in the wild today, because I am much more used to misogyny from men.
Ultimately, there is not much difference in how they affect you, you can caged either way. I would say the term misogyny started becoming more popular and replacing the word sexism within the last decade to fifteen years.

>>1574393This is going to sound so stupid, but the best I can tell, it is because they see it as claiming oppression clout.
Recently discussion of "curls" surrounds racism against black women being encouraged to straighten their hair, which is why there has been a focus on "consulting black women" by brands lately. This is an improvement so that people with all hair types can have access to good hair products.
Anyways, terminally online dorks think people with wavy hair don't have as difficult a time as people with coils, despite the struggles of people with multiple hair types. They consider people with loose curl patterns the same as people with straight hair since they don't have the same "intensive" routine as a person who can put dreadlocks in.
Unless there was niche drama I haven't heard of because I refuse to download tiktok, it's another leg of the oppression olympics or whatever people are calling it these days. You're evil if you try to claim you have "real curls" because you don't understand true struggle, etc etc, I wish somebody would take away their phones and make them fingerpaint.

It is free and open source, and one of the main draws is that it is simple to use. You need at least 4GB of ram, but if your laptop is even slightly modern, you should be okay.
Gifs are not made in the software, but once you clip your mp4 file down to size, you can export/convert it as a gif. There is extensive documentation for OpenShot, so you should be able to look up how to do this easily if you run into trouble.

>>1575589Some of it is to make it easier to maintain. Plus when you're old your hair thins and some follicles will stop building hair. It is worse for some more than others. If it is short it can look fuller in these cases too. But this doesn't discount the common expectation that you are to have short hair after a certain age. I've seen it said and heard it, long hair and non-grey hair is meant for younger people, which is insanity. I don't know where that came from. Anyone can style themselves how they wish.
That's why I like people who do different, like Mimi Kirk, she is 84 and still keeps longer hair. And until a few years ago would keep it blonde as well. I love seeing older people do what they want with their hair (and clothes). dye it purple? hell yeah i love it

>>1577873A capsule wardrobe should match your lifestyle. I currently have three dresses: two casual, one proper. If you wear dresses rarely, one might suffice. You can even rent dresses for formal occasions, so you don’t have to make a large purchase for one event. Contrarily, if you attend many events, one dress for black-tie, one for cocktail party, one for clubbing, might be more suitable. A capsule wardrobe simply contains a few staple pieces that are easy to coordinate and suit your lifestyle. 10 dresses could be a lot if you rarely wear them, or just enough if it is all you wear. I only own one pair of jeans and one pair of sweats, for the rest I wear skirts. This is enough for me, but five skirts might be too much for someone else. Play around with it! What helped me was moving abroad and having only one suitcase to bring. My suitcase contained a lot of books, so I didn’t have much choice regarding clothes. I really had to choose my favourites and ended up with a capsule wardrobe I just adore!

Is it normal to have a break in listening to music? Do people just grow out of enjoying music?!
I've cared about music for a really long time, especially during my depressed teen years, it has become a big part of my personality. I picked up guitar and tried to write songs. Full-blown annoying person arguing about irrelevant shit on rym. Loved it, it was like my purpose to stay alive.
Around last year my music listening slowed down significantly, even just the ambient listening while doing chores or sitting on the pc. I'm sure i went about month and a half without listening to music intentionally. I just kind of stopped caring about it. It doesn't really grip me like it used to - and its even rarer when i get something like goosebumps or shivers or get really psyched about how the music makes me feel, that used to be a very common feeling.
Is this normal? I'm actually pretty bummed out about this.
No. 1579026
>>1579019I used to listen to music daily and for hours, and then I'd get periods just like you've described. I can't really explain why, but maybe I got used to videos and tv series as a background noise, plus I don't find that much new music anymore, doesn't happen that often. I mostly listen to it while walking and sometimes intentionally at home but much rarer, I still enjoy it greatly when I do though. One more thing that's changed is that as a child and a teen, I fantasized a lot while listening to music, I would retreat in the imaginary world, it was maladaptive daydreaming basically, and music was a huge part of it, but now I just don't need that.
I think it's quite a common thing and people would sometimes leave the thing they enjoy for some time, I'm sure you'll start listening to music again as you used to. Maybe something else changed in your life (or you changed in some way)? Maybe you just need to find something new?
No. 1579037
>>1579026Hah, I actually did the same thing with music, too - pacing and fantasizing. Thought it might be MDD too, but it didnt overtake my life so whatever.
Anyways, I just left my teen years recently and I'm focusing on my job, being more active and having more mundane responsibilities. I thought it was just a longer dry spell anyways, I've heard about it happening, but i thought it would never happen to me kek. Thanks for the second opinion.

Full-blown annoying person arguing about irrelevant shit on rym. Loved it, it was like my purpose to stay alive.>Around last year my music listening slowed down significantly, even just the ambient listening while doing chores or sitting on the pc. Same to both of these statements. Went from being a music nerd to legitimately not listening to music (outside of maybe commuting and even then it was never anything new) for 5+ years. I'm forced myself back into it by buying decent headphones and getting a spotify sub kek. I feel embarrassed for having middle schooler music taste because I just don't bother searching for anything interesting, especially because most of my friends are very much into music and even have their own bands.
I think part of the problem for me is that I don't like background music when I'm reading books, manga, playing vidya or writing something. I can only listen to music if I'm browsing the internet or walking outside.

victim services and explain, they would be your best point of contact with the justice system as an outsider. if you meant that you want to view evidence from a case that is closed, i would go to your local law school and talk to the law librarian, they are all weirdos and they would love to help you. good luck nonna.

Is my bf selfish or do I have a victim mindset?
When we are at my place, it is natural that I share the food that my mother has cooked for me so he doesn't have to order and spend money. And when we are at his place we usually buy the groceries, split the bills, and I'm the one who cooks for both of us. When I don't have time to cook, we order food, but the thing is, he has a cafeteria card granted by his workplace so he pretty much gets free food, whereas I don't, and I have to pay. He always mentions how he has a lot of money on his cafeteria card but he has never invited me for dinner or lunch or payed anything for me. He sees his mother much more rarely than I do, but when she cooks, he shares that with me as well. He always promises to cook one day but so far that hasn't happened. What is your opinion, nonnas?

No. 1579885
>>1579869So the issue is his workplace grants him free food and he doesn't share it with you?
Usually if it's from work it's not meant to be used for other people, at BEST it could be used for another family member (like a child), which you are not as you are only dating. If his card starts showing he gets double meals often he might get in trouble for it.
And the other issue is he doesn't like to cook? I can't lie neither do I, so I avoid it. Especially if it's for someone else, because I don't want them to eat bad food AND know I'm bad at cooking. If you really want him to cook, tell him about it and ask if he's willing to cook with you and it can be a fun thing you do together. Eventually he might find it fun and be confident enough to do it on his own too.

Should I move to one of those shrinking small towns in Italy?
~ I am a dual Italian citizen
~ I understand Italian quite well
~ I speak decently and learn fast
~ I am already living in Italy
~ I want to work remotely anyway
~ If they require a business I will open a cafe lounge where people can hang out and offer some menu items not typical in Italy (if you know here the coffees are small, there is no ice coffee just frozen coffee, the food is typical pastries, most people do not spend hours there, compared to a cafe in Korea)
~ I don't drive or have a car but I can get a vespa
~ It will be one not far from the sea and not a mountain village
~ I am independent but young and eventually want to have a family
~ I can get pets to not be lonely
~ I would love to renovate it to my dream house, eco friendly, self sufficient, and add a pool for the unbearable italian summer, protection against the summer bugs, and a security system since I will be alone
~ I want to offer short term stays for young women just like I enjoyed while traveling, like couch surfing, to pay it forward
~ I like quiet scenic places and will practice my dance, acrobatics, yoga etc
While I would be sad to not have access to an ice rink, I can do inline or roller and a dream would be able to open a small local ice rink as another business.
My only concerns are is it easy to get to and from, does it have a good internet connection and if not how can I fix that, and lack of social life and loneliness. I am a homebody introvert but I do enjoy some social outings, in a town full of older people, all I could think was to invite friends to come stay with me often, and travel often. The town pays you to purchase the house and register as a resident, renovate the house, and work or start a business. I would really like a permanent home, always somewhere for me to go that is safe and peaceful.

It could have other things in it to bring people in too, like a gym, dance studio, etc. It also depends where I end up.
I forgot to mention I am from a small seaside town myself, there was a huge ice rink about an hour away that is still around, despite being surrounded by small towns, it makes money and is open year round.

Anons, should I continue to take Adderall despite the side effects?
I have been taking it for 3 days and I've been experiencing chest pain, heart palpitations, really bad stomachaches (it feels like someone is twisting my stomach in knots). Today I woke up feeling dizzy, nauseous, my nose is running, my muscles are aching, I might also have a fever right now. These symptoms all supposed to be common, but holy shit, I've never experienced side effects this bad from any medication before.
The other thing is, while it does work and helps me focus, it does not give me motivation. So all it makes me is procrastinate more efficiently and make me more aware of time and I'm not sure if this is what I'm supposed to be feeling. My bf says I should keep taking it until my body gets used to it, but I'm really not sure, does it get better?
No. 1582613
>>1582294Find the baseline of how much it helps. Try to do a repeatable distasteful task off the Adderall and rate on a scale of 1-10 how hard it is. Then, do the task one hour after taking the Adderall and rate it again. Rate and compare other measurements like heart rate, mood, concentration, and anxiety. Then, take 1/2 of your dose the next day and repeat all of it. Measure again six hours after taking.
You might be sensitive to it and need a lesser dose. You might need a different generic, or even a different medication altogether. I know the pink pill version of Adderall is garbage for me. Compared to the orange pill genetic, the pink leads to greater anxiety, decreased sleep, and lessened concentration. Whatever your findings, advocate to your doctor about your requested next steps and explain what your research has shown. Doctors really don't know anything about anything, it's all trial and error with your health.

nonnie: some people have lots of experience but still suck both at relationships and sex. I wouldn't say it doesn't matter at all, but it certainly doesn't matter as much as it may seem, and it's not worth overthinking. Sex isn't really complicated, plus people are different and like different things, so you'll be learning either way. Communication is important both in sexual and romantic relationships.
Just for example, I was in a relationship with a guy that was a virgin before me (20+) and briefly with a 25+ guy that has had quite a few relationships and sex partners, and the second one was much, much worse at everything. I knew for a fact he was experienced, not something he made up, but it didn't help him at all, while the first one was way better both at sex and communication. Just be considerate and pay attention to your partner, but don't forget about your own needs and boundaries. You'll be fine, nona.

when you’re working, your teaching philosophy
for this job, aspirations
at this job, plans
for when you are at this job”. Right now your answer makes it sound like you’re going to request a lot of vacation time.

>>1583394Lol the job does include travel actually, and wants someone musically inclined and with sports experience, fluent in multiple languages, well educated and a good role model.
I should have said what the job was in the op, but it's a private tutor that will turn into homeschooling. So I thought it shows who I am and at the same time demonstrates I am qualified to provide a well rounded education to the student. But yeah I am gonna rework it a bit.
And thanks so much for replying

>>1583407Ohhh, what an interesting job. All the adventurous travel and culture stuff makes sense then. The “who you are” parts are unclear to me though
> I adapt to my environment and circumstances, overcoming each challenge in my path. Better if you can be specific about a challenge you overcame/environment you adapted to, being vague can come across like basic regurgitated resume jargon
>I aim to excel in language, music, dance, sports,Makes it sound like you haven’t excelled in these fields yet but you’re aiming to. They probably want to know what languages, music, dance and sports you’ve excelled at.
Otherwise I notice there’s nothing about your passion for molding developing humans into their best selves so they can become well rounded free thinking successful cultured adults etc. Gotta mention working with children or adolescents at some point I think. Something about your teaching style too, unless your plan is to use your awesomeness to inspire the child into learning (honestly would have worked on me as a child but I don’t know if parents would believe that lol)
But obviously this is like a special type of job with specific requirements so I don’t really know what they want you to tell them. Sounds like a fun but challenging gig, I hope you get it!

>>1584315You'll want to cater your resume to whatever field/job you're entering. Which jobs have you had that either most closely relate, or else that demonstrated skills that translate directly over.
Also, don't go overboard with it, but lie. Say the job you want with your education is a therapist. Instead of saying the truth that you had a lot of little jobs and dropped out of college a few times, place one longer false job with skills in the middle. So you would claim that you were a nanny who practiced Montessori play techniques for a private family from 2018-2022. Then, as your reference, give the number of a friend who will lie for you and pretend to be your manager and let them to know to expect the call and what you need them to pretend to be. The hiring process is not just a resume, it's an intelligence check. It's not just telling them your skills, they are also testing if you are social enough to provide references, and smart enough to fill out a resume and cover letter while being obedient enough to be willing to jump through hoops. You would not believe the amount of times I set out to hire someone, just for 80% of applicants to disqualify themselves by not reading the posting instructions or submitting a spell checked resume.
Now, you don't want to go overboard and lie about things that are easily verified or so important that it's going to affect your job. So don't pretend you babysat the CEO or that you've been an air traffic controller. But saying you were head of babysitters club in high school? Sure, why not.
By the way, it's always better to base a lie in the truth. So if you had a job, even a short time, it's better to pretend that you had the same job for a much longer time at a different company than completely make up a job you've never had. But then again, if you're confident in your ability to have the skills that that job would have gave you, feel free to lie outright.
And finally, mid twenties aren't a mega loser. I went back in my mid twenties and my life is great. And my great grandma became a nurse after all of her children left her house in her early fifties. And she was a nurse for another twenty years.

To the nonnie that gave me advice about my cv, I am still reworking it and glad I am taking a few days to do this. They want 2 to 5 pages explaining very specifically my experience, my character, my philosophy etc so I am adding in as much of my life as I can, every student I had, everything I have learned and done, it's so intricate I can't imagine who the hell else they could possibly find better than me seriously. It's like I've been preparing for this without even knowing just because I choose and enjoy living this way, and that's who they want for the job. It's still no guarantee but I am putting my all into this application and sending it out, if there is interest I have first interview, if there is a chance I have second interview. Anyway this job pays over 100k a year so hell I will spend the time pimping out my resume, getting a nice headshot, preparing for the potential interviews.
How do you not cry whether you get this job or not? If I get it the money will buy me a house and all my lifes dreams in a year or two, and if I don't, all that is still just a dream.

>>1584690>How do you not cry whether you get this job or notIt is possible to do nothing wrong and still fail. If it happens, remember that it is likely nothing personal. Interviews are weird like that. Sometimes companies already have someone chosen for the position but by law they have to interview others to prove that they are not being discriminatory. You can always check for this by asking the interviewer if they already had someone in mind for the position. If they say yes, you know you will not get the job and that this is just interview practice. Even if you don't get it, nannies leave all the time. Interview with other families and continue to bulk up your resume with child CPR courses and Montessori education credits. Then, if that position comes back on the market, you'll be prepared.
Also, I don't know where you are, but depending on your culture, it never hurts to kiss ass as a servant. Immediately after the interview, send a beautiful and tastefully done thank you card thanking whoever interviewed you (like the one pictured, avoid any joking or slang cards). It will arrive at her home 3-5 days after the interview and will create a more personalized bond and bring your name to the forefront of her mind.

>>1584751Yes because they are affluent people with like 100 million net worth, money is nothing to them, and you are essentially being the entire staff of a private school in one person. Separate housing is provided as well, bills covered, and often a car or a driver for work.
>>1584760Lol I have a few passports, just in case. Sometimes it is like a nanny but other times they have staff covering everything else. This is a young teen so it's more education focused, younger kids are more childcare focused with some educational activities. Traveling is required actually, all expenses paid. Even if my freelance jobs with middle class families I had a lot of perks so this is just more of that for being exclusive to one family.
>>1584952Great idea, although this is through agencies and I would only meet the family if I made it to second interview. And yeah people quit a lot, or the employer changes their mind fast. I actually just got my updated child cpr certificate last week and I have educational certificates. It's all up to the cv and looking presentable to the agency and clients. My cv is at least three pages long by now.

>>1585169Most women I’ve known closely have had constipation issues so it’s definitely not uncommon. Never let yourself get uncomfortably backed up though because I’ve been hospitalized for bowel impactions and it was one of the worst experiences of my life and now I’m more predisposed to future impactions. Do you drink enough water? For some that’s an easy fix. If you’re uncomfortable or just want to go more regularly, stool softeners (Ducolax or generic bisacodyl which is much cheaper) are awesome and really gentle. You won’t feel cramping or anything like that. I take them most evenings and it really helps keep things more manageable. Things like psyllium husk makes shit (lol) exponentially worse for both my sister and myself so I’d avoid that or other fiber supplements.
I was overweight until my late teens and like you only pooped once or twice a week but I was definitely uncomfortable and always wished I could reliably poop in the morning before school. After the impaction issues pooping at least every 3 days has has become a priority lmao. Oh, and if thyroid issues run in your family definitely see if you can get tested because hypothyroidism can greatly contribute to constipation. Sorry this is kinda rambly but ime not pooping sucks!

I love her so much, so much, but she does not believe it
I hug her every time she wants to, I visit her every day, I dunno, a lot of other stuff, but then I'll do something wrong that seems small to me like being late or asking her if she can make me a sandwich, which now as I'm saying it, I think I'm actually still the bad guy here, and she is convinced I won't even bother to spare a thought to her
how can I convince her, how can I reassure her?
I'm so stupid, I just like to do things for people when they askk, so I guess I just assumed she does too, but also she texted me that it was fine, and I misunderstood and thought she was okay, but then when I got to the house she was weeping that I don't care about her at all, because I didn't bother to wonder if maybe she's just saying it's okay because she's being polite, but now actually I guess she's right

Someone help me out, this has always confused me.
Why is there such a crazy difference between a bad actor's voice and a good actor's voice?
Good actor's voice:
>appropriate emotion
>appropriate tone
>appropriate emphasis on words
>"signature" cadence
>can convey a totally different meaning than what they are actually saying
Bad actor's voice:
>flat emotion
>flat tone
>barely any or too heavy-handed emphasis on words
>poor, undefined cadence
I guess my actual question is why is it SO HARD for bad actors to have a "good actor's" voice? Like, is it really that hard to accomplish? How does one get to the "good actor" voice? I just don't understand and it drives me fucking crazy. Can any acting nonas weigh in to tell me if it's really that hard to get a good actor voice??

This extends to excessive drug use for example. I don’t personally agree that ‘someone in their right mind’ would do these things to their body, so it doesn’t seem right to support those actions.
People hurt their bodies in all kinds of ways every day, and it’s a trade off. The line is where you decide that trade off isn’t worth the risk anymore, that’s here it becomes concerning harm.
Someone that uses a paper clip to scratch their skin with no blood probably is if no concern, but if someone is severely drawing blood and causing open wounds the risk of permanent bodily harm is much higher and it csn be assumed they’re not in their right mind if they commit the act.

you might miss out on other nutrients you'd get from natural sources but in terms of protein it's fine. I guess you could give yourself a kidney stone (a risk you run with eating too much of just one thing for a long time, doesn't matter what it is)

So I'm not a blackpill manhating type, but have you ever noticed how some men go crazy when their wives get pregnant and have kids? I remember hearing on a podcast about Pamela Anderson, when she had her second child and was married to Tommy Lee. He pushed her when she was holding the newborn, claiming he wanted his wife back. It's like many men want kids for their own vanity and don't want to do the actual work of raising them. They also don't want to lose 'their women' to the baby.

>>1588066>While out to dinner to celebrate the pregnancy, Steve turned to his wife Kathy and asked, "Tell me, would you think I was a total pervert if I told you that, in your sexual absence, I would use something to replace you sexually? Would you think I'd be a total creep?"This is the inventor of the fleshlight by the way. Imagine celebrating pregnancy with your husband and his first concern is replacing vagina as if it was a simple meat hole he needs to use, and is now deprived of. It gets crazier and he involves his teenage sons in the bussiness later, if you're not a blackpill manhating type, go on and read the whole thing, you will be. Men are depraved, disgusting etc

>>1588066I always grew up hearing married men be like: gawd muh wife needs so much attention and always want to talk or go do something together? I just want to come home from work, ignore you and enjoy my 'insert whatever manly pasttime' to chill out. Then on the weekends I have 'sport or the pub' to escape to. haha I can't get away from her enough. Amirite other men
Now you have men who are often young and not even in that stage of life yet who're freaking each other out in advance like: A woman having a kid is bad because it divides her attention between them and you! Your ranking in the attention stakes at home gets cut in half overnight! How do we regain control of this predicament.
My dad was living his own life from what I remember growing up. Hobbies and things to fill his free time that didn't include us or our mom. Which isn't great either. But its like 2 sides of the same selfish coin. Me me me. My needs trump everyone elses.

should i watch the Barbie live-action movie or no? i wanted to go watch it in July with my friends for my birthday, but Ryan Gosling is kinda ugly(maybe he's more attractive in motion?) and now that i know there's a troon in it, i'm discouraged. But i saw the list of singers in the movie and it looks like it could be fun and i want to support a female director even if she's a handmaiden, and i live in not-America/-Europe/-Australia so it's not like any unaccompanied males will watch it even for the updoots. if still no, any other decent movies coming out recently?

>>1589017 , i've changed my mind, i give up. I don't understand how for a movie that's all "She's everything, he's just Ken" that she would cast a fucking fuggo for Ken, that's supposed to be essentially a trophy husband. just makes it go from some utopia with all women in power to some femdom fetish material for pathetic ugly males that think their "submission" is enough to set them for life with a woman. i already see people misuse that meme for strong and capable female characters and their ugly male much dumber counterpart. and why'd there have to be a troon too to top it off.

>>1589194If your city is shit like mine, and you live in an apartment, not a house, go to the building’s garden and enjoy the sun there, take a book or a notebook if you like writing or drawing, don’t forget to bring some earphones to listen to some music in case you get too anxious outside.
Maybe bake something simple so the apartment has a nice vanilla scent, or clean up a bit and keep your windows and door open (but not the grill) so you can enjoy the fresh air.

Water births are in shallow water, and the position is more animalistic on your hands and knees when going into labor. The water is there to relax you, the position is natural to ease the birth. Because you are in water you cannot be hooked up to epidural. Someone is behind you to assist with the birth and "catch" the baby
Hospital births are not natural, they are a business. The birth is made easier for the doctors, to do as many as possible. The position makes it easy to strain and tear, they resort to c sections way too often. People go for water births probably because it's more connected to the natural way.
I think you can decide who is in the room but in any case you at least have a midwife. Water births at a facility will have doctors around, only a home birth would you need to hire people to be there, and have less equipment.
If you are really curious there are people who filmed their water births on youtube, it doesn't show the whole view if you get me, but it shows the set up. I'm sure somewhere you can find childbirth educational videos, myself never gave birth before so I have no personal experience

Is it worth going to the doctor's? Part of my hand above the thumb is permanently swollen and aches after I write or draw. It's been swollen for 4 years now and hasn't gotten smaller. The middle of my hand aches too and it's affecting my left hand even though I don't use it as much.

>>1589453"How tall are you" would be "combien mesurez-vous?" or "quelle est votre taille?" but the problem is that no matter how you phrase it it could be mistaken as you asking her what's her size, as in is she an S, M or L.
For the length of the dress you can ask her "quelle est la longueur de la robe?". If you want to ask if the dress if above the knees ask "est-ce que la robe est au dessus des genoux?", if you want to ask if it's below, say "est-ce que la robe est en dessous des genoux?". Can you ask for pictures directly too?

why should mint plant bottles(like growing mint stems in an open bottle filled with water) be washed, and why should it's water be changed everyday? I started my own a 15 days ago(by picking out a stem and ripping off all the leaves), and have changed the water everyday but never washed it, and there's some bright green deposits on the bottom. The plant is not growing as fast anymore, in fact one leaf has started to brown and some leaves on top are wrinkling.

This also made me remember that during a transitional period with work, I was leaving my old job and my boss brought in a cake during the last shift. I took the leftovers home and he ate them without asking. He’s such a miserable asshole
