All dumb money-related questions because I wasn't taught shit and am frantically trying to play catch-up now on how to be responsible and independent.
-How much money do I need to have before I can safely move out?
-How much should I be saving per paycheck?
-What is a money market savings account?
-Are there actually any viable options for making some extra cash while working full time? I don't trust the financial girly youtubers
I live in an expensive state and my monthly income is between 2-3k

Christianity is really broad so it depends. It's like asking if feminists believe x, there's a whole range from TRA libfems to rads to self-identified male feminists to girls who barely think about it.
I go to a Catholic church without being Catholic and nobody is rude to me, in fact they're usually glad that new people visit. I attend a free/cheap dinner event and the subsequent mass. For mass itself the priest hasn't ever trash talked non-believers, the most is that he asks everyone to pray for "those who have been hurt by/have left the church" and a general "we hope everyone can find God" type thing. They also give quick guidelines for non-Catholics at the start of each one to explain how they can receive a blessing at a certain point.
Even Catholicism is varied though so I wouldn't be surprised if there were radtrad churches who beat down on non-believers. It really depends.

Disclaimer: just based on my personal opinions.
Move out of where? 2k if you’re in a hurry, 5k much more comfortably.
You should be saving $800 per month.
Money market savings accounts are for people who make more money than you, you might actually need your money in-hand and you don’t need an investment account guy breathing down your neck for it during a historic downturn in the economy. Or maybe I’m wrong and you should start a small one, ask somebody at your bank. I regret starting one 7 years ago, I’m doing the math and it would have been better spent on a down payment or something instead of market speculation and I feel like I’m giving my money to Wall Street people who actively want to make my life worse.
You’re usually better off asking for overtime at your current job than looking for money making schemes or part time work.

The sermons at my church didn't. Non-believers would occasionally be mentioned as sinners but more in a "they're misguided" or "watch out for their ways" way, never in a hateful way. Christians consider themselves to be sinners too so going after non-believers viciously doesn't make sense, I think. Might totally just have been the flavour of church I grew up in though. I don't go to church as an adult so it's not like I have church-experience beyond that one church my parents went to.

>Are there actually any viable options for making some extra cash while working full time?
Yes, it's called learning a skill that will eventually land you another full-time job (or self-employment) that pays better.
I'd say the only side gig that's worth your time (as in money worth) is becoming a side gig girlie content maker yourself, but even that is full time, and the market is already completely saturated. Do keep your saved money in low risk investments like treasury bonds though, savings accounts have shit interest, I don't know if it even catches up with inflation. But as the other anon said, don't try to be a greedy retard, speculation and riskier investments are designed to syphon money off retail investors, see vidrel

>How much money do I need to have before I can safely move out?

You said you live in an expensive state, have you checked how much rent costs where you'd like to live, and whether you can afford rent and bills and still have some left over to spend + save each month? If so, 3 months' rent is ideal IMO, but you should have a lot more because…
>How much should I be saving per paycheck?
If you live at home and don't contribute to bills or have other financial obligations, you should be saving up around 80% IMO. If you do contribute, 80% of whatever is left. Don't burn cash on useless shit if you want to move out and be financially stable.

I'm not American so my christians are less insane and would never even go close to 'fuck those who aren't christians' like never. You'd be reprimanded if you said something like that. There wasn't even a 'they're misguided' it was more 'we all have our own beliefs'. Not saying they were singing campfire songs and inviting over people from synagoges and mosques but non-believers who weren't seeking spiritualism were more irrelevant than anything

I've been brought up christian, attended mass every week as a child and attended doctrine/lessons until the end of middle school. No one really ever talked about non-believers. When mentioning sinners, and this included themselves because they consider themselves sinners as soon as they're born, it was just about how to pray and make up for those sins by being a good person and spreading god's (or jesus') love and words. They have special programs for newcomers so they can receive their blessings sooner and "catch up" (because normally the blessings come at specific ages, most of them while you're a child). Non-believers can enter the church, attend mass and enter the cemetery. My local priest often meets people around town and he never mentions sinners or reprimands believers for not attending mass. There are more radicalized schizo priests around but it's not the norm nowadays.
Not defending christianity of course because every religion is moid centered and crazy but they're a lot milder and softer compared to other religions I came in contact with later in life.

Samefag, the town's priest used to teach "religion class" at our local middle school and he would talk about other religions' way of praying, culture, beliefs and history in a pretty neutral way. Non-christian children could leave the class but they could remain and listen if they wanted to.

So let's say small pieces of one tooth have been coming out gradually, like every few months or so but it's completely painless, what are the effects of just leaving it as is? Of course the tooth will get smaller but if there's no pain then it's nothing serious correct? Can I just leave it alone? I don't have enough time to see a dentist.

No. 1732462

>>1732452
Well, if enough of the tooth comes off it could expose the interior nerves which would be extremely painful. Damaged teeth can lead to infections or an abscess which could land you in the hospital or needing a root canal. Definitely make time to get it looked at, dental issues can get very serious if left untreated nona

if it keeps deteriorating it will eventually cause you pain and be a problem. are you doing anything to stop it? you could always set a dentist appointment a few months in the future and block off that time to get it looked at (if you're not going to go right now because time is an issue). if your teeth are falling apart you'll need to do something eventually, it only gets harder and more time consuming to fix later.

The way they live their life, their posture, physical activity, weight, hormones, sex, genetics, etc all play a role. It’s complicated. I don’t think that bones play as big of a part as other things.

You have to go to the dentist regularly anon even if you have perfect hygiene you still need regular cleanings and check ups. Unfortunately teeth are easily prone to decay and what I think is happening here is you have a seriously decaying tooth that will either need a root canal or an extraction. You absolutely cannot avoid it but if you need to save up for the dentist I'd advise you start doing so immediately. From one anon who needs a ton of dental work to another its time to get serious about your teeth or you might loose them all if you keep ignoring them.

I'd start with some big trash bags and just throw out any trash and unsalvageable items to get them out of the way before I clean anything. Then I'd probably collect all of the clothes and put them to the side to be washed before putting them away. After I'd start dusting and wiping things down so stuff can go back where it belongs. Once I'm done with that then I'd go in with the vacuum or broom to sweep up the dust and other detritus off the floor and finish up by mopping. No need to get it all done in one day though, just do parts at a time nonny.

step 1: collect all clothes and put them in a laundry basket. remove any bed clothing or curtains as well.
step 2: go through trash on the floor and furniture with a trash bag, toss anything that's not essential or cherished
step 3: wipe/vacuum the floors and furniture. if you have a carpet consider taking it outside to get some air or hang on your balcony.
step 4: move around furniture to catch any stray trash that might have moved under bed or else.
step 5: now your room is clean, go through the things you didn't put in the trash, clean them with some wet wipes or a wet rag and find their designated place
step 6: put fresh bedsheets. if you have a washing machine, run a cycle with the clothes you've found.

BONUS: if you have any new decoration you bought ages ago but never got around to put, this is the time for it. if you struggle with keeping things on their places, consider getting small boxes to keep your things inside.

besides step 1 and 2 you can do these in any order you want also you don't need to do it all in a single day.

you can try just going to a deli or cheese shop and asking, often there will be someone who can explain them and offer samples. If you find a small authentic business they will probably be enthusiastic about helping. There are also assorted cheese packs/boards for sale sometimes in stores
what cheese is paired with is pretty important. Some cheeses are kind of nasty on their own or in certain dishes but can be good in other stuff. For example I would not want to eat pecorino romano raw from the block because it's hard as a brick and unbearably salty, but I love it when I make it into cacio e pepe (pic related)
If you don't know how to use them you can follow recipes or eat at restaurants. I'm not a cheese connoisseur but here's some basic things I like:
>ricotta on italian-style pizza
>parmesan on various pastas
>pepper jack on burgers
>provolone wrapped with salami/prosciutto as a snack (if you don't eat meat you can try it on a salty bread)
>feta in wraps/pitas and salads
brie is considered to be similar to camembert so might be worth trying if you liked that one

The reason why this question is stupid is because of how absurd the situation is. This problem has been solved years ago but I want second opinions just in case because sometimes I wonder if we weren't maybe a bit too selfish. Anyway: if a foreign neet friend of yours who's too mentally ill to get a basic job and after barely graduating university was threatened to be kicked out of the country after a certain date and she asked you to marry her just so she could get a new visa and stay longer but without pretending to actually like you by living with you (which would make the marriage illegal because it would be a greencard marriage), would you accept? Would you accept to take a risk to pay a huge fine and have a criminal record and have people around you think you're a lesbian including your crazy religious and homophobic family just to help a friend who brought this to herself and wouldn't even try to get a job after the potential marriage anyway? She's not trying to find a job either in her own country right now and just play games online instead and barely talks to anyone she "proposed" to, as usual.

I did. I had a couple meetings. This man has a history of threatening violence at the workplace at a previous job. He purposely lies to my management about my work and talks bad about me to my coworkers. He has a history of staring at me very intensely and after the drawing incident where I and other male coworkers confron him, he says nothing to me but stares at me, he erased it once supervisor saw and told him to, a coworker told me when I turned my back to this man he was staring at me so intense that coworker felt very uncomfortable. I had asked the HR woman in the first meeting if she could give me a statement or document saying I was here and complained, because I thought from internet reading that was a thing I would need to escalate this with the state. Later I have another meeting with another HR person and management who kept asking me why I wanted a statement, I told them all about why I felt unsafe (including that years ago he figured out which car is mine and my route which makes me a target for backlash) and examples of this man's character and how my coworkers are concerned for me. I was very upset and crying because they acted dumb and forced me to explain all this again and they did not believe me. I was told his history of threats was "rumours", I was told my coworkers were simply "gossiping like high schoolers" for their own enjoyment, and that what he did was "inappropriate at best" and that due to my crying the "gossiping" was "ruining me" and "making me paranoid". That meeting was even worse than actually dealing with that man. I've had a previous harrasment experience at the same company a summer or two ago where they only did something about that man once he treated violence, not in the previous sexual harrasment incidents he did to me. But they acted like I have no idea what I'm talking about.

yesterday was raining and my shoes got super wet while I was going to work, I'm dumb so I didn't carry an extra pair of shoes even though I knew it was supposed to rain that day, so I spent 8 hours at work with wet shoes and today there was a big, round spot on my left sole that was so red and it burned so bad I literally couldn't walk. When I touch that spot the skin is also very hot. Why am I so dumb? Anyway is there anything I can do about it? After washing it again I sprayed it with anti bacterial spray and when it dried I put a very thick layer of urea cream. It's a little better now but walking is still hard and I'm going to work tomorrow and I have to be able to walk ffs

Try these, they stay on surprisingly well for something that's rubbing against the inside of a shoe all day. From the sounds of it you don't technically have a blister but it's still a nice thick bandaid that'll cushion the spot.

I don’t even dislike it, it has its charm, but it would be a very lonely and quiet place for a foreigner.

I'm studying in Indiana as an international and I feel very safe here. There have been some notable crimes/deaths but I don't have the impression that it's an overall dangerous place. For instance there was a violent murder, but it was clearly a guy having a history of personal beef with the other guy in particular, so it has nothing to do with me.
The other nona is right about it being cold and boring though. I enjoy my solitude but if you're a social person it might be hard; people are usually very friendly but it's not a diverse or activity-packed place. I have not met anyone from my country, which idc about but might be depressing for some.

The franchise company always makes more for doing less. The logistics of it escape me, like unless you’re already rich you can’t run a chain of hotels/ franchises, so who is really the owner? Who is making the money at the top? How are immigrant families doing this unless they are wealthy or unless they’re a small part of a larger system?

don't want doctors accusing me of criminalities so i'm asking here. wtf do i do since i've been addicted to several hard drugs since childhood? ketamine, and some form of rohypnol, molly, mdma or ghb? i got prostituted and raped before i was even 8 so my brain is definitely permanently fucked. i grew up with severe withdrawals. i am off hard drugs since 2019. still, the only time i feel alive and not anxious is if i am on vacation and spend at least an hour exercising under the sun. clearly this isn't sustainable, and trying alcoholism instead made me more retarded. so, should i larp as a healthy blyat and start the day getting sweaty and nasty with a run, chugging vitamin d, or just say fuck it and find a plug, keep them at a low dose and live happy until i get a heart attack or something? i am only happy when i have sex or drink alcohol tbh.

I think you need to get to a place in life where you are just safe for a while. It might take a few years, but give yourself a chance to live a normie life. Clean living, exercise, a boring job if you can get one. You might be able to find happiness in other things if you’re not living in fight or flight constantly.

Either one of them alone used correctly would have been fine; there is no need to mix hormonal birth control, it doesn't make it work more or better. Why are you doing depo AND a mini pill? Did your doctor recommend this?
>how do I know what my fertile days are?
If you are getting regular depo shots you have no fertile days.
If you just started the minipill or depo you might have to wait a week to 10 days depending on where you were in your menstrual cycle before it's safe to have sex.

I don't have super short hair but a bob and I find that it takes less time to brush and detangle. I can just rake my fingers through it in the morning and it looks good. But more importantly my hair naturally leans dry and brittle so it takes a lot of effort (and product) to keep the lengths presentable. Keeping it bob-length is just easier. I don't have to slam a drugstore's worth of conditioner and hair masks against it to keep it from being dry af.

No clean water to drink, pipe breaking and flooding issues… But it was a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Lots of local cows (like literal cows kek).

I grew up in rural NE somewhere that still doesn't get any cell service even today. We rented a whole house, it was 500/month when we first started renting and went up to 800/month by the time my parents left that area. My mom worked (I don't know what her salary was, somewhere between 45-60k per year if I had to guess), my father did not work he was an insane bum, black-sheep of a rich family, who stayed home to terrorize us and her (sorry, sore spot). My parents had 6 kids, I imagine we were a huge money sink and I don't think my mom was able to save any money even though she had a legit career, I hear she has debt now actually. Inheritance money from my father' side of the family that eventually came to him even though he was a black sheep was immediately wasted by him because he's a privileged idiot (like literally a million dollars in under 5 years, gone); always chapped my ass because I know he dangled the future vision of a big inheritance in front of my mother to get her interested in him… lies. sorry for tl;dr

I've never been to one that actually locked in a meaningful way. The door can't be opened once it starts running but there's always an emergency stop button.

If you're planning to let them sit in the washer because you have a lot of errands, I wouldn't do that because (etiquette aside) it unlocks when the cycle ends and someone might just take your clothes out and throw them on the ground because they want to use the machine.

Is it weird that my friend is a teenager while I'm an adult?

Anyway a girl came to my work, we get along extremely well, take the bus together, joke together ect. She's basically the version of me if I was loud and outgoing. Thing is she's 16 and I'm 24. She does ask me for advice on boys/relationship stuff but lately she has been asking me to do stuff like sleepover at her house, I say no and why it's weird.

I own a laptop and also both a phone and a tablet.
Personally I don't like carrying my laptop everywhere and own it mostly because I can't lay in bed with a PC or take it to another room.
On other hand, I oftenly need to read textbooks on the go and it's really inconvenient with a phone. A tablet is good choice since I can read pdfs comfortably. Also I like reading books and comics so it works as good as a pocketbook.
Personally I would say you should get one if you can afford it. It way more convenient compared to a phone if you that sort of person who reads books or watches movies on her phone. A tablet is also way smaller than a laptop, you can pretty much throw it in your bag and don't need to carry one of those ugly laptop bags everywhere.
If you want to draw with your tablet that I can't say it's as good as people say it is. Maybe IPads have good specs for drawing but I own a Lenovo Tab and honestly it's kinda sucks for drawing.

They’re not super high in calories like peanuts are from what I can see online (surprisingly hard to find nutritional info on the whole roasted bean) but apparently 8 beans has the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee so you probably feel sick from caffeine if you ate a lot of them. Drink plenty of water. Exercise moves caffeine through your system faster so you could try that too.

In the modern times we've also now realized the differences in female and male autism patients (as the old diagnostic criteria was based on male autists) so women get diagnosed more adding to the total amount of patients.

Do you think it's better to write a suicide note, or is it better to not write one? On one hand, leaving one would answer questions and keep loved ones from wondering and questioning for the rest of their lives. On the other hand, reading a suicide note would probably be very traumatizing and haunting.

Wouldn’t it make the person seem like some attention whore? Unless the motives for the suicide are shit like getting molested by a close family friend or witnessing a family member getting brutally abused and murdered. Idk, suicide isn’t exactly something that people even want to rationalize for too long because the whole thing doesn’t make any sense and only the person that’s deciding to just drop dead can understand to some extent, because most of the times, people seem to commit suicide in moments in which their mental health is obviously messed up, so why would a note make anyone feel better about that? Like at all?

>love ya

No. 1736754

>>1736689
I think a note is better for a variety of reasons. Closure, telling people what you want done with your body & possessions, telling people it's not their fault and you love them, also making clear that it's a suicide as opposed to accidental if you go out via pills or gas inhalation or anything that could potentially be seen as unintentional. People love to twist the words and intentions of the dead, having something down in writing will make sure people aren't making bizarre fanfics about your choice to end your life. I also think that we live in a world right now where so much is ephemeral and having a physical piece of paper with someone's last words in their handwriting can be really meaningful, especially if friends / family aren't likely to have anything else tangible. All that being said… if you're struggling right now I hope things improve for you and you decide not to go down that route. Ultimately the decision is yours, but you are a valuable addition to the human race, whether your brain lets you feel that or not

One girl in particular posts publicly on her fb her jokingly letting a special needs man think they're going out and getting him to make videos etc for her to post of him threatening other guys talking to her because she uses fb to secure gear and a fuck. Meanwhile she'll upload photos of her kids in school uniform for the specifically known special needs schools in the area. So she's making fun of someone else's mentally impaired son online and when she gets heat for it she starts posting about her sons and their schooling and the cognitive dissonance is insane. She's my personal cow. She posts everything on fb. She had 3 different new boyfriend's in less than 2 weeks and they're all balding fat dudes some look old as fuck.

I'll definitely try to be as caring and kind as possible to my bf and his parents. Part of the reason I want to break up with him is that I secretly resent how lovely his family is. I was raised by a codependent bipolar heroin addict, he was raised by two loving extremely skilled artsy parents who regularly did family projects and encouraged his creativity. And yet he complains about everything he sees! He can never just look at the nice neighborhood he lives in and be happy with it. It's always complaining about how big the neighbor's cars are and how wasteful it is, or complaining about how the pedestrian crossings make you wait more than 40 seconds and that should be illegal, or how the teabags I bought have tags on them and that's outdated and stupid. He also tells me it makes him self conscious when I tell him he needs to wash his dick. He's not depressed, he just has a horrendously bad attitude towards life and it makes me seethe over how good he has it. I don't like how bitter it makes me and it makes me prone to snapping at him unfairly. One year my mother invited her dealer round for Christmas and told me I was ungrateful for not wanting to eat with them after they shot up. I just want to spend the holidays with a family that loves each other and isn't on any kind of substance for once.

dental malpractice anon reminded me, i'm supposed to get my wisdom teeth taken out sometime during the next several months. When you wake up from the surgery, how loopy are you exactly? Can you still decently control yourself? I'm kinda nervous about being totally autistic and saying something embarrassing/personal. The plan is that my bf will pick me up to help me get home and although I'm pretty open with him, it'd still make me cringe if I started rambling about imageboard culture or something stupid like that. I've heard mixed experiences so I'm just trying to gather more anecdotes
when he finished his surgery a while back, he was so anxious about accidentally telling his sister about his secret crush that he randomly told her in advance "I'm not telling you" and then when she asked what he's not telling, he panicked and texted her the n-word to deflect. I'm kinda scared of zonked out retard logic like that kek

I had four wisdom teeth removed in one hour and as long as you can say no to laughing gas, you’ll be okay. They’ll put you under general anesthesia and you’ll just wake up with an extremely dry throat and not be able to talk because of it. Make sure you have water on hand and chapstick because when they operate on you, dentist tend to pull at your mouth alot and cause your lips to dry and split because of it. Also get extra gauze because the amount they give you in a small bag after isn’t enough to keep you from chewing your cheek thinking its something else. If you’re also worried about how swollen your face will be just ask your bf to bring an icepack and a cloth cover your cheek with, it also helps when you start to drool by accident with how numb your mouth is

Dental malpractice anon here, I’m also getting mine taken out soon too! My sis has done it and she said it was a very chill procedure. They did it under sedation and she said it felt like they put her to sleep and the next second she woke up and it was over! Just do what the dentist tells you for the aftercare and eat the right stuff and you should be fine. She said she wasn’t really loopy afterward and that it was the best nap of her life kek. They prescribed her Perc for any pain but she told me she had only took one once after the procedure .

About dental stuff on topic, is it reasonable to be scared of my fangs being shaved down? I think I'll probably need wisdom done in the future and I've heard of male dentists shaving down fangs because they don't like them?

No. 1738532

>>1738524
What the hell? I don't think your dentist is going to do this to you if you ask them not to. They only do it when you might get braces or if your tooth is broken, but I believe it would be very unprofessional and could potentially lead to being sued if a dentist does it for no good reason. And also it might cost extra, so you'd probably be told beforehand.

No. 1738534

>>1738524
I’ve heard of it happening to a lot of people without their permission, so your fear is real. I love my fangs too, I think you just need to be extra clear and state what they have your consent to do.

Make sure you tell your dentist to not do it, explicitly say so, be obnoxious about it. I got my cute as fuck fangs shaved down when I was a kid and I’m still seething.

It's literally been around since she was created, it's not like it just came from nowhere. Yes it became more popular than "board-tan" in recent-ish years but idk how you can't know that she's always had a name basically since conception if you're an oldfag.

Duh, I was trying to get the post where it was first used. I wasn't going to manually scroll through the /meta/ catalog to find something from 8 years ago.

Nonnies, please give me your strength. How can I take criticism from a very harsh teacher without feeling discouraged? Right now I spend the most time on her assignments out of all of my classes because I get so anxious. She has a reputation in our department for being a tough grader and nitpicker. I'm already very sensitive to criticism, not because I think I can do no wrong but because I want to improve and am devastated if my efforts are not good enough. How can I stop being consumed by the negative feedback? Even though I don't like this teacher, she is a respected professional so I feel like I can't ignore what she says about my work. But now I'm second-guessing everything I do, even in my other classes because this teacher has said some hurtful things to my face. I don't know how to turn off my feelings. I'm envious of you nonnas who are confident in yourselves and hope that maybe you'll have some advice for me…

Remember that she's not attacking you as a person - just criticizing your work. It doesn't mean you're not good enough or didn't try hard enough, it just means you are a person with potential to improve your work.
You don't have to like her, she's a tool to help you improve your work. Pretend she is an AI robot, programmed to point out any flaw it sees so you can fix it. It's possible the teacher is an autist who doesn't know who comes across as a bitch or something. Or maybe she just is a bitch lol but for you, she's just a tool to be used.

When I was in my late teens I had a teacher who treated the class like we were literal toddlers. I'm not joking, at one point she showed us a picture she took of a fallen autumn leaf on the ground asking us "do you see what this is?" everyone was dead silent in disbelief, surely she wasn't asking us if we knew what a leaf is - yeah no she was. I obviously didn't learn shit in that class and her "kindness" felt degrading as fuck. I've had mean and scary teachers, but this woman was by far the worst.

VERY! Just don't ask "can you be my friend?". If they're a total stranger I guess start by coming up to them at an appropriate time and saying something like "hey, so sorry to come up so suddenly, but you look amazing and wanted to tell you that!" or "hey, sorry to bother, could I have a cigarette?" or whatever you think is most appropriate. Then small talk, asking questions, compliments, it's not that hard. Just don't flat out say you want them to be a friend; that's off-putting and will never get you a friend. Rather, act like you want a friend. OK?

I think that someone has to be an autopedophile to be unironically into DDLG because the whole idea of DDLG is acting like a child/teenager/toddler/baby, if a person gets sexually aroused by the idea of being called anything like: brat, baby, little girl etc, specially in a context in which that person is wearing childish clothes, with childish things around, engaging in childish activities like watching cartoons for toddlers or the sorts. Then that’s certainly a case of autopedophilia, in which DDLG is the act of fetishizing youth.

It’s just not normal to be into a woman acting like a child of any age, it’s also not normal to be attracted to school uniforms btw, which are part of what’s sexualized in DDLG scenarios.

Radiology tech needs to be crossed off your list because it requires muscle and you would have to do a lot of math. Honestly, i am in a similar position to you and have similar needs, so my recommendation is to get over your avoidance for maths and get an associates degree in something in the medical field like being a low level lab tech or something or training to be a paralegal. If you can hack it, trying to get into the tech field doing something to do with data analysis or web development might be options as well.

>how do you predict her potential to do harm?
It’s hard to know because every person (yes, even the degenerate ones) is just very different from each other, there’s people that just never engaged in such fetishistic acts but that have abused children, just like how there’s young women into DDLG that do the act and are strictly autopedophilic and won’t touch a child with a 10 foot pole because they see them as competition (as fucked up as it sounds).
>How can you tell the difference between the ones who would never hurt a child and the ones who have not just autopedophilia but "typical" pedophilia as well? Or do they always go together?
It’s just hard to know, because on the internet anyone can be anything and use a whole new face every second.
I think it’s possible to begin as someone who is just “kinky” (I don’t believe in kinks btw) and slowly (or maybe stupidly quickly) go down slippery slopes in order to either try to feel like they’re part of a community, or to become someone relevant for that community.
The morals of that person will be the anchors that will let them stop and find other ways to fulfill that satisfaction, but it’s very easy to get swayed by yasss queen and that’s so hot comments though, specially when someone doesn’t have that much positive feedback in other spaces and/or irl, which is why there’s women that aren’t exactly still in highschool that will do anything in order to be praised.
Like, maybe in DDLG it’s easier to find praise because you don’t have to starve yourself like in an ED community, or you don’t have to necessarily commit self-harm like in the self-harm community, or be creative or attractive like in the fashion and makeup communities. Because all that a DDLG person has to do is cater to a fetish, the lowest of the low, it’s very easy to do so because anything can be a fetish, from blowing bubbles at the park to taking pictures of the back of your knees.
And it’s also very easy to pavlov yourself into thinking that something is sexy, either by watching porn or engaging in sexual activities with the people that are trying to push a fetish on someone, to the point in which, yeah, a person can fall into a world of paraphilias for the sake of reaching a new high and a new taboo cool orgasm.
I think the best thing to do is to just stay away from such people that actually will talk to you about their sex lives to that extent, and that will turn them into their whole brand/personality, it’s just not healthy.
Being fixated on a fetish leads to people being willing to do unspeakable things in order to feel like they’re totally the coolest clown at the circus, that includes abusing children or facilitating the access to children to moids.
Are they all 100% true and honest pedophiles? Maybe, but would they be capable of harming children? Depends on how many likes, positive reactions and positive comments they get when they ask.

In case you really can't, do these steps:

https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-system-visual-effects-boost-performance-windows-10

Turn off all these graphical things, they just eat memory for no reason, except for Smooth edges of screen fonts (fonts are basically unreadable without it).

If your laptop is a cooking (probably is because it's a laptop), try increasing the fan speed so it cools down your toaster making it faster (beware, it might be loud, consider headphones):

https://www.myfixguide.com/control-laptop-fan-speed/

You can also max your processor power there but I wouldn't advise if your laptop is above 90c. You can download some tool to check the temps. Anything around 40-70 is acceptable.
After all that, go on Admistrative Tools and run defrag and disk clean up. You probably already know that but just in case.

although your undertone may be cool, skin is still a some variant of a warm colour like brown/peach/yellow/orange. purple is opposite to yellow/orange on the colour wheel, so the effect is that the yellow in your skin is brought out in contrast rather than the effect being harmonious. hope i explained it right.

so as you know lots of sjw moved from tumblr to twitter, but there are still lots of genderspecials and handmaidens on the site. the best thing is to filter out those tags and not follow people who interact with the mob + if you don't partake in specific cancerous fandoms like my hero academia, dream, undertale etc etc. picrel is what tags I hid.
on my dashboard I see pretty/weird images, lolita fashion, computers and other tech related content, some 4chan/8chan caps, cosplay from years ago (+recent ones as well), vidya games, random gifs/stamps for sites, terf-y content and more.
this is the only social networking site I use and I've had some unpleasant encounters on it (years ago though, before I filtered out those certain tags)

An MRI-scan? It's not that much of a big deal. You show up at the hospital, change into hospital clothes (you're not allowed to wear any metal on you, including the underwire in bras). I think they gave me like a paper-ish robe but it might be different in different hospitals, idk. I think the whole process including discussing the results took about an hour? You do have to remain very still though so if you move a little too much you'll have to through it again. They gave me headphones with music to take a bit of the anxiety off.

If you're talking about a CT-scan, those are pretty quick. Online it says you're not allowed to wear any metal on you just like a MRI-scan but idk that wasn't true for mine when I got one when I was in the emergency room.

sometimes it can be as simple as shifting the hue of the purple slightly (from blue based to red based). another thing that might help is altering the saturation or brightness of the purple; a darker or more muted colour may produce a less clashy effect.

why is foundation seen as a "must" in makeup? maybe less these days but i've seen lots of women and girls say they don't wear makeup because foundation gives them spots or they don't like the way foundation makes their skin feel or something. props for not wearing makeup really but why is that like the all encompassing makeup thing? i usually go out with makeup but have never once worn foundation. i understand if it's to cover bad skin but there are loads of people with flawless skin who still regularly wear it. it just seems like such a hassle

I feel like maybe the use of cameras and seeing poreless airbrushed photos contributes to that. I've seen girls post pics asking for help and they look literally normal. For instance I've seen multiple women stressed out because they have minor millia near their eyes, which I also have and absolutely nobody can see unless they're 2 inches from your face looking for it.
One thing I don't get is the contouring trend, it's ridiculous and only looks passable on camera. But nowadays it seems like every western girl is expected to buy multiple products to do it?
I honestly feel like covering your whole face in general looks unnatural and the "opt-out" rather than "opt-in" expectation of makeup really sucks. I'm into fashion but not really makeup and people are always asking why, like wdym "why" I'm just not interested and my face is fine as is?

Idk, I agree that newborns are pretty rough looking but they're usually pretty cute once they've gotten a chance to bulk up a bit?

As for baby animals I think kittens are super cute once they've opened their eyes and started stumbling around with the triangle tail. >>1741010
I've heard it be called active/responsive listening or just affirming or validating. It's considered a general communication skill to relay that you heard what the other person said even if you're about to disagree.
The stereotype is that men generally have a more blunt "focusing on solving the issue at hand" communicative style while women tend to be stronger at meta skills like checking in with how people feel rather than directly tackling the central issue. The other extreme can be annoying too, I've known people who just parrot everything I say back with "I understand that" and don't actually contribute to the discussion.

as a serious answer I think a lot of more socially outcast women look down upon super sexually active men and see them as brash "players" that just use women as meat, or just impossible to relate to. Some women like the idea of a shy inexperienced boy that they can take charge of.
Retarded but I used to be someone who sperged autistically on 4chan at men to not throw away their virginity because they kept talking about how women want men who are "experienced" and the misinformation made me triggered as fuck. I didn't want a guy who had a leg up on me, I wanted someone who also felt that having sex was a big special deal rather than something you can just easily do. In my mind it wouldn't be special to him if he already did it with other girls and he'd probably be comparing me to them, it needs to be a new life experience for both of us. I was extra hard on the idea and wanted someone who'd never kissed a girl either.
I did eventually kiss and have sex with another kissless virgin, not a 4channer tho thank God. We've been together for over 5 years

Kek same. It was such a waste of time and energy. They were already spiritual whores anyways so even if they were physical virgins, they weren’t worth anything. Men who are virgins but wish they could be sluts are as disgusting as actual sluts. Maybe even more because they are undesirable and failed. Men who could have a bunch of sex but choose not to and want to save and dedicate themselves totally to one woman are the only ones worth any while.

Another thread reminded me of a conundrum i’ve been having because i’m too autistic and scared of coming off as creepy and weird to a stranger. I got my hands on an external hard drive from a thrift store, it looked brand new and am cheap and I know I could test it out safely. Worst that could happen is it has malware or something illegal. Thankfully it has none of that, just all the personal files of some person that lives a couple cities away. Like family photos and old school word docs. I know her name and some family from doing light digging into the files and googling her, current contacts too because she has a public business account. But i’m too scared to message her about the situation in case I come off as a creepy weirdo who has access to all these personal files of hers. I don’t use social media with my name and face attached, if a random account messaged me and claimed to have found my hard drive I probably didn’t even know got donated to a thrift store i’d be skeptical if it’s a creepy moid who wants to scam me or get my person information. Wtf do I do, try and find her address and sneakily drop it off in the mailbox in the middle of the night with a note trying to explain the situation? Is that even creepier even if I remain anonymous?

This might be really dumb, don't judge me if it is. You know those packs of meat that are in Styrofoam and plastic wrap? I have one that's been in a freezer for a while. There's some blood that has leaked out around the entire package, being contained by the plastic wrap. I didn't but it myself so I have no reference of what it looked like before, but the packages are usually supposed to be tight enough that no liquid can seep out around the package.

Would you take this to mean that the package wasn't sealed properly and not safe to eat?

Nah its fine as long as its the ones wrapped in store, those are fresh packed and rarely actually sealed airtight. Thats why there are plastic bags everywhere on rollers in the aisle for you to use, because its going to leak. The branded ones that are shrink wrapped/vaccum sealed and shipped in (not packaged in store) should be air tight. Like if it says 'Tyson' brand and isnt just meat by the pound. But any meat sold by the pound is totally fine, just sucks when it leaks

I want to say Nirvana in Fire but it probably falls into the "heard of it, but never watched it" category for many international viewers. Aside from that, The Untamed, Love O2O, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms, and Ashes of Love all come to mind as being super popular and well-regarded. An argument could be made for Startling By Each Step/Scarlet Heart, but it's been greatly overshadowed by the K-drama remake.
I feel like C-dramas only became internationally popular during the mid 2010s, so all the big C-drama hits are relatively recent compared to J-dramas and K-dramas. Up until then, Taiwanese dramas were way more popular. The OG Meteor Garden, the OG Fated To Love You, Autumn's Concerto, etc etc.

is anyone traumatized by having uncool interests among girls in a small private school, autistic and isolated without even tv or a computer (had youtube and an ipod though but only played games about collecting monsters and only watched pokemon youtube videos) so lacked an understanding of the world other than overhearing convos at school (only participated in them if it was about pokemon like games…) i mean i wanted to branch out a bit but these things were super cringe (mlp and furry) or i thought they were undesirable because of the few media i saw (being a nerd basically) and now i go insane when im stressed where i think I'm not supposed to have hobbies and instead be talking to people 24/7 and other nlog beliefs but im trying to be like the other girls

how do you deal with sharing a room with someone who snores a lot when you need to sleep too? she is not the type of person to handle criticism well so outright telling her is not an option. i tried using noise canceling headphones but can still hear her.

nonas i'm retarded, help me out. does this sound more like it's prompting me for an opinion or comparison&/contrast essay ?
>If you had to choose between living in your home country or living abroad, on what basis would you build your decision?
i know this sounds like middle school homework but i'm ESL in uni for english studies and my professor is anal and meticulous as fuck, i don't really want to fail his class by handing in yet another off topic assignment. my intuition always fails me, what i think is the obvious answer always ends up wrong. it's so simple that i'm really confused and having a hard time trying to discern what is really being asked here. help !!!

Your opinion. Since the country abroad where you'd be theoretically living isn't defined I don't see the thet way you can do a comparison/contrast essay on this topic.

The way I understand it it's asking you to talk about general concepts such as living standards, closeness to family and friends, integration, foreign language etc that come with moving abroad.

No. 1742995

>>1742986
Well bro has since changed usage from its initial roots (not in its meaning necessarily but how it's viewed as more homogenous) and has for a long time.
Bruh and Finna have been used by a lot of AA males online and black male influencers have a lot of young white male viewers/listeners. So those young white males are growing up with the words as an established part of their vocab. More with bruh than finna though, finna is still pretty well known for being used wrong by non-AA users.

Should I ask for my medical records at the pediatric hospital I used to go to for years even though I'm officially considered cured and it's been 15 since I stopped my treatment? I still have some occasional symptoms like hypoglycemia although it's rare but it happened this week and I haven't fully recovered from it yet. I was diagnosed when I was 6 and I have a pretty good memory of what my doctor told me but obviously my mother was told all the details and had all the papers the doctors wrote for her but she never truly understood everything and she, to this day, doesn't even understand that what I had was a pretty serious medical condition and not just something that made me look a bit different. I was never given the official name of the disorder even if it's easy for me to guess. Maybe having access to my medical records could be useful someday? What do you think? Contacting the hospital seems a bit annoying but they stated online that it's possible.

>>1743936
I used these similarly to liners
But I have a question too, has anyone had negative effects from Always pads? I saw some people saying that they have toxic ingredients and anecdotally experienced rashes and stuff. I used to use Always and I would consistently experience horrible dryness at the end of my period, like so dry that my vulva chafes, and it stopped when I stopped using the brand and happens again if I use it again. I never figured out any other cause since my doctor just shrugged it off and said to use some lubricant.

I don't know if we are, but I have been since I was a teen (24 y/o now) and wearing them daily made me feel safer? IDK how to word it; there's been situations where I'm out, have to stay the night, so to feel less gross I take off the liner and still have clean-ish underwear. It also helps if you have a light period start and can suddenly get it.. I assume if you're unlucky it also helps not stain your bottoms with slime (like Shaynus does). I think it's all relative; during sex ed our teacher (a 60 y/o History teacher) told us "there's something very wrong with your reproductive organ if you wear pantyliners every day" and most of the girls were confused because that's exactly what we've been doing and we're healthy, so make of this anecdote what you will.

Yes, but as anyone will tell you, it's about set+setting and your current state of mind. If you've been very depressed and hopeless lately, there's a chance it might just further that state or lead you down a wrong path. If at the moment you're not that well but still mentally more open to changing your view on things or exploring various paths you could take, then you can have a breakthrough given the right conditions. In any case if you're not sure don't do it. You'll know when you're ready.

kek I work in music and yes for the reasons the 2 nonnas above stated. Sometimes it's also just because we know them. Our job whatever our position in the live entertainment world is to put on a show: the bigger and more impressive a show is, the less "real" most elements will be (live pitch correction, people picked out of the crowd, etc.) just to make sure the show doesn't "lose its magic" and goes on as planned without anyone getting hurt/disappointed.
Doesn't apply to small/indie bands though, their audience interaction is usually genuine and they know they need to play on that for their image. If you wanna dance with the lead singer when he jumps into the pit you just have to be in the front.

Do you gyns have any thoughts on what I can do as a sellable craft with little glass bottles? I have hundreds of these things, and have access to thousands more for free, but I don't know what to do with them.
They do not come with corks. There's a thriving craft fair circuit where I live, but all the ideas I've seen on pinterest involve the bottle having corks and I think buying corks would cut into my profit margins too much.
I had also considered selling them directly to craft stores in bulk, but even though I'm mostly doing to this to cut down on landfill trash, the effort required to sell them wholesale (they have to be prepped and washed by hand) would probably lead to me bailing and just tossing them in the trash in a few months.

Any darker colors will do, so dark greens, greys, browns and blues are fine. You want to show your respect by dressing somberly and more formally unless the deceased has made a special request beforehand. Small amounts of tasteful jewelry or make up are fine, but nothing that will draw attention to you.
For the cold, it's acceptable to wear a dark coat while you're outside. Sweaters are fine, but if you're going to the viewing as well as the burial, remember than the funeral home may be much warmer, especially if there's a lot of people there, so dress in layers.

There is a good chance it would spark. Microwaves heat the water molecules in food, and they can heat the inside of things first. I would imagine towards the end, the ice would start steaming and the ball would start sparking. You also can't microwave eggs for this reason.

Microwaves can travel through water, but ice may be too hard for the microwaves to pass through, bounce off of the metal, and then continue traveling.

Dramu was consuming the board. It admittedly was distracting and overshadowing actual cosplay/jfash discussion, but it was also a big part of /cgl/ and its culture. Moot hosted a thread to decide whether it should be allowed or not, and mostly a bunch of tripfags came in and kissed his ass and asked for it to be banned, so he did. It was an and end of an era and /cgl/ was never really the same since. It became a lot more civil, organized, and on-topic, but almost too much. It got a lot less traffic afterwards and sort of died down.

Is cuddling among your female friends common? I've never had much close female friends or even close friends for that matter so I have no idea if this is something that happens between besties. I can see myself not being afraid to touch them or just being physically close to friends I'm comfortable with. For example if we're sitting down in a sofa while watching a movie I wouldn't mind sitting right next to them but not like full-on hugging and clinginess like you would with a partner.

Looking at the MtF thread, I am perplexed by the amount of "touched starved" TIMs wanting "platonic cuddles" from their gal pals as if thats a normal thing to ask from your friends? It just seems so weird even among close friends because cuddles is something you would only do with a partner, no? Even before I peaked, I used to have a transbian friend on discord that would tell me how much he would love "platonic cuddles" and "physical affection" from his friends (whose friend group consists only of women btw) and tells me how disappointed he is that the social convention is that you only do such things with a romantic partner. Like yeah? That's the point? He was even acting weird about the topic of "platonic cuddles" towards me, as if it's something that I should do for him??

I kinda hate the community though because they use terms like "afab" "amab" on the calculator and asspat any man who simply posts "that's right… I'm a MAN who wears bras!" with lavish praise for breaking gender norms, and welcome men who openly want a bra for dubious reasons.

My friend would ALWAYS wear extreme push up bras (to make her boobs look bigger of course) and that were too small for her (so she could pretend to be skinnier, she was fat) and then she complained about bras being uncomfortable like yeah no shit sherlock!

It's the same relative amount of volume, not just projection. If someone has a humongous ribcage and wide breast roots that cover the entire pec, then it can happen that a smaller cup would cause tissue to spill out at all sides and be massively uncomfortable. I'm nearly flat and because of that people always told me to wear A, B, maybe C at most. Turns out I needed E. Going up a band size and cups down just causes the cups to be narrow af and sit in the middle of my chest with half my boobs spilling out at the sides, while not filling up the front.

I have a vitamin D deficiency, I take the biggest supplement that I can get at the grocery store. I always notice my hair and fingernails growing faster, and my fingernails being stronger (though still pretty breaky). I've never noticed a direct effect on my energy or mood, but those are kind of unstable anyway. I also take iron because I'm deficient in that too, they used to prescribe my ferrous sulfate but that stopped a while ago, I just take it from the grocery store. I feel like it makes me more energetic, but it might be the placebo effect. just make sure you take them with food

the answers above are good, but here's a more detailed, autistic answer: we know a negative times a negative is positive because it follows from a basic assumption we make about the real numbers. (A real number is just any of numbers we usually use, like 1, 1.9, pi, 2/3, etc., but excluding the square root of -1.) To do any sort of math with real numbers, we have to assume that any real number has what's called an "additive inverse". So, let's take the number 2 as an example. We say that 2 has an additive inverse if we can add something to it to turn it into 0. That is, the additive inverse of 2 is the solution to the equation x+2=0 where x is any real number. Clearly, the solution is -2, so the inverse of 2 is -2. For the real numbers, the additive inverse of a number is the "negative" of that number, so the negative of 2 is -2. Now what about -2? What number, when added to -2, gives us 0? Clearly it's 2, the solution of x-2=0. (Regarding this equation, remember that subtracting 2 from x is the same as adding -2 to x, i.e. x+(-2)=0.) So the additive inverse (and thus, the negative) of -2 is 2. This argument works for any real number, so the negative of a negative is positive.

Retarded question about a social interaction I had:
My best friend (of years) was talking about her time management for hobbies, and I said it was the same for me, and she just flatly responded, "uhh, you don't have any hobbies." Then she nitpicked every example I brought up?
>(J-)fashion? That's just buying and wearing clothes lol
>"but there's an artistic aspect with stylizing, it involves skill that not everyone has" ehh maybe but you sound elitist rn lol. it's an interest not a hobby
>cooking? That's just a basic necessity because you need to eat lol
>[misc 3D art]? That's just because you're doing it in uni for a credit lol
>gaming? Ok, that's a hobby, but it's not productive.

Nonnas who helped me.. I'm gonna shoot myself. I wrote to the woman who is selling these and asked if I could get more pics of the shoes to see their condition better since I'm interested in buying and she wrote back:
"Hello
You know it's not easy to walk in these
My daughter is only 11 years old
She saved her own money up
You know how much these originally cost (sad emoji)
They were rarely worn
I'll send you a video in a bit"
Lady.. You know damn right these shoes aren't 65€ worthy and you use your daughter as a reason for me to buy them overpriced? That's exactly the reason NOT to buy them for your price since your child can't walk.

I don't know, I think that is relative. Definitely very well off, and I had access to certain materials and activities before college provided by that wealth that I know some of my peers did not.

Kek not sure about that one. I don't even think you need to turn your scores in anymore, even to most grad schools. If you have solid extracurriculars and good writing skills (and obviously a good GPA, and if your school has honors/AP/IB that you've taken advantage of that) I think you have a fair shot at getting in. If you come from a less privileged background the admissions council will factor that in. If you'e an ethnic minority this is the last year you can use AA kek. But you should tell a narrative in your essay—talk about things you're passionate about, or how your background shaped you into who you are today. An with ECs, they don't need to vary too much—in fact it's better if your ECs are very focused, but you do them at a high level (e.g. a competitive dancer or musician, member of (inter)nationally-acclaimed robotics team, winning a(n) (inter)national award for math/science/art/writing, starting or being part of a charity or business, or starting a club at your school).

I would highly recommend going to an in-person, established university and just taking online courses. If you have a 4.3 GPA as you say you do, you'll be able to get into some decent universities, and most (if not all) reputable universities in the US will give you a grade based scholarship.

Very bad idea, not because of you being single because having a partner regardless of sex doesn’t guarantee a better or worse life for a child.
But it’s a bad idea if you’re actually chronically depressed, as in you need to take pills and stuff, just what kind of life can you give to a child if you have moments in which you probably can’t even get off the bed? That’s assuming you’re actually depressed and not just very sad from time to time.
The salary thing may also be an issue because kids need many things, specially if you get a baby, lots of medican check ups, food, clothes, learning materials, toys to stimulate the baby/child so he/she doesn’t get bored to death (kids don’t need have to be many, but toys are something that they need) maybe some hobby that the kid may want to try, and the possibility of the child getting bored and picking another hobby just because, gas money to take the child from one place to another, and so on.
Idk, having a child means focusing on that person for the rest of your life, sacrificing things that you may have wanted to experience, even sacrificing your career for the sake of making time to take care of that child. And like, parenting just won’t suddenly end just because the kid grows up and is an adult, it means being there for that person even when you’re old and tired.
You can’t have a child the same way you would have a pet, and even pets require some level of sacrifice in order to give them a nice life (like not traveling to certain places or not traveling at all depending on the pet).
And I wouldn’t even recommend you having a child even if you had a very supportive family that will help you, because in the end the only person that child will give a single fuck about will be only you.

There's a study/survey where they asked people whether they consider themselves lower/middle/upper class, and people of most incomes overwhelmingly picked middle class even when they are objectively relatively poor or rich. I can't find it right now but it's pretty interesting since everyone thinks they're just normal
my upper middle class family was pretty frugal growing up and would pinch pennies although we didn't have to, so as a kid I felt like we weren't rich, just not poor. To us, "rich people" meant like celebrities and multimillionaires who had everything tailored for themselves, not people who owned multiple large assets (houses, cars, boats, etc.) or could buy luxuries at a storefront.

Pregnancy and the early years suck the life out of women, You are growing a human and then dedicating most of your time to its wellbeing 24/7 until you get a few hours off a day at 5 or so when they start attending school.
If you're already chronically depressed it would only get worse since depression is often a sign of other underlying health issues (like burnout, fatigue) and women will often say that having kids aged them ten years, it can accelerate issues like cancer, hugh blood pressure, diabetes, plus some people get really horrific PPD.
Wait until you are in a good place mentally and physically at least, for a year or more, so you know you're not running on empty.

Would a 19cm (7.5”) girth penis kill me as a virgin?

No. 1748528

>>1748509
You're mixing up girth and length. A long penis won't do anything, it just won't fit in entirely since the vagina's depth is smaller (on average 13cm I think). If it's pencil thin, you won't feel it that much and its lenghth is useless. But if it's thick, it can be harder for a first time. If you're somewhat relaxed, want it and he takes his time to prepare you, it probably won't be too hurtful.

They’re equally useless. You won’t find a decent-paying job without connections on a master’s degree alone (which, BTW are just cash grabs) in the arts.

>iron because supposedly women are highly vulnerable to deficiency
Why'd you want to take iron if you don't experience any iron deficiency symptoms dumbass? While it's true women are more vulnerable to iron deficiency, you definitely shouldn't just randomly take iron supplements if you haven't had your blood tested and without doctor's supervision. Some supplements are harmless when taken in excess, but you can get iron poisoning from taking more iron than you need. Get your blood tested if you're concerned about actually having a deficiency. Taking iron sucks anyway, nausea is super common and not always avoidable by taking it with food.

I think the answer should be 35 miles.
>1L of fuel = 5 miles

So if 10 people get off the bus, it adds 10 more miles. If another 2L of fuel is added to the tank, then that's another 10 miles it can travel. With the original 3L in the tank, the bus can travel 15 miles—so all of that added together is 35 miles.

Yeah, the 3 L + 10 people off + 2 L afterwards means that the bus can travel 35 miles total. As the question asks how many more miles the bus can travel, the answer is 20.

Let x = liters of fuel and y = number of passengers who have left the bus
5x + y = some miles traveled

When x = 3 L and y = 0 passengers
5(3) + (0) = 15 miles

When x = 3 L + 2 L, and y = 10
5(5) + 10 = 35 miles

35 miles - 15 miles = 20 miles

https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/easy-beef-stroganoff-recipe/#tasty-recipes-61950 I've made this one and it's pretty good if a bit basic. Also it makes a TON so if you're cooking for 1, half it. Personally I like adding peas and dijon mustard, and sometimes adding cornstarch slurry at the end if I need to thicken the sauce. Some tips- if you're making a recipe that requires boiling always add any dairy products after that step or you risk getting curd chunks in your food. To get a good sear on the beef pat it dry before seasoning, and don't overcrowd the pan.

That he was still working. I didn’t believe him so when he came to pick me up I asked to see various apps. He showed me but then wouldn’t show me one particular one. I exploded and told him to leave and that we were done because he wouldn’t show me so he said he was going to kill himself. The rest is a long story but is that pretty much admission that he is guilty? At one point I went inside briefly and he eventually showed me the app and there was nothing, but I think he could’ve deleted anything in the small window of time I left.

No we only started dating recently. But it was out of the ordinary for him to not call back for that long, for his phone to be “dead”, and to get out of work so late. It was just enough to make me have doubts and I have trust issues from being cheated on before. I don’t wanna waste my time and I think he shouldn’t have had any issue showing me when I first asked.

I don't know how to word this question, but… How acceptable is it for someone who is able to walk to use a wheelchair? Let's say, said person is deeply in pain with a sore back for days, but they'll get better in the future and don't have any ailments. Maybe asthma? But the thing is, they're not disabled, just in pain, and they might not have chronic pain but they might have been in pain for more than a week. Is it fair for them to use a wheelchair when they can't walk comfortably but they're not disabled?

No. 1750884

>>1750860
why wouldn't it be? Wheelchairs are just tools, not like some sacred cultural item, anyone who wants help can use one. I'd think it's weird if someone wanted one just for kicks but if you're in actual pain and can benefit, there's no reason to gatekeep over not being disabled enough. I am 100% able-bodied but I used a wheelchair before when I had surgery and was disoriented/blind for a while after. Unless you're taking a chair from another person I don't see the problem

No. 1750886

My sister has epilepsy and has had to use a wheelchair after seizures sometimes because it puts her balance off for a few days after, even though there's nothing wrong with her legs or spine. People use wheelchairs after surgery or after giving birth pretty regularly. If it would help you conserve energy and get to where you need to go, you should use one.

how do you nonnies who have typical 9-5 jobs have the energy and time to do hobbies and stuff? the weekends go by so quickly and mine are usually spent doing chores/errands since I'm too tired to do much else besides cook dinner and watch tv after work each day

No. 1750959

>>1750907
tbh it's about planning out your days and pushing through the mental exhaustion. I used to come home from work dead tired and browse lolcow or watch tv but now i try to limit unproductive time like that. When I got home today I was tired but I cooked, did some cleaning and worked on my art, tidied up my terrarium and now I'm giving myself 30 minutes on lolcow before bed kek. This weekend I'm dragging myself out to see friends even though I'd really love to sleep in and play video games. I'm so fucking tired. The secret is that EVERYONE, even the people who work full time and have active social lives and hobbies and look so happy, they're all tired too. They just have built up the discipline to do what they want despite that. It's really tough; I think working and having no hobbies besides tv shows and Instagram is very common and I'd never judge for it but if you want more from life you kinda just have to suck it up because you can't increase the number of hours in a day. Hopefully someday a 4-day work week will become standard and I can do what I want without constantly feeling like a zombie kek

ayrt one of my favorite hobbies if you could even call it that is media consumption kek (typical video games and anime) but I'm really wanting to improve my art and learn to pattern draft/sew - maybe also continue studying the second language I was learning in college. it's just so hard to do any of those because they require a large amount of time dedicated to them in order to learn and see any improvement. I need 9-10 hours of sleep too so I only really get about 5 hours free time after work to eat, shower, clean, cook and then I have to choose between working out, media consumption, or a creative/more productive hobby. idk I really don't want to go through life feeling tired every day but I doubt the 4 day workweek will happen in my lifetime especially for my job unfortunately, so I guess you're right I just have to suck it up and push myself through the exhaustion.

If you're morbidly obese I think the best would be to make dietary changes and introduce long walks/swimming or maybe stretching exercises first. Only after you've lost some weight you could do higher cardio and exercises that involve more mobility or weight lifting. Otherwise I think you'd hurt your joints. Also there's absolutely no need to pay for a gym if you only wish to lose weight. Gaining a considerable amount of muscle is another story, but if you don't have much to spend I think your top priority would be to find good quality shoes that allow you to walk long distances comfortably. Public pools are cheaper than gyms too. Hope this helps

The other anon who replied is completely spot on imo, I also don't think a gym is really necessary. Try to add more general activity in your daily routine, like walking to places when possible, sitting less, dancing for fun, basic stuff like that where you just move around some more.
General weight loss tip: you want to focus on building better habits. A big mistake people make is that they go really hard into dieting and working out for a period of time, feel miserable but see some results, and then fall back on their old lifestyle and undo all their results. It's best to make small but permanent changes that you can get used to keeping most of the time, rather than dramatic but unbearable changes that you'll give up on.

Thr easiest way to lose weight isn't exercise, it's to eat less. If you're obese you don't even have to eat that much less because your daily calorie need to maintain a body that large is super high! Meaning if you just for example cut out soda and drink water instead but eat the same as before you'll lose weight. Without any exercises whatsoever! Same scenario, just starting with cutting the soda in half can make you lose weight. At such a large size small steps like that are actually huge and worth doing.
Of course exercise is still good for everyone so I would start simple by taking walks. Ideally you want to get to a point where the walk doesn't make you sweaty and it's just a nice peaceful time. So as long as the walk makes you sort of out of breath and sweaty you know it's still a good exercise for you if that makes sense. Once walking is easy you can move on to harder things.

at some point (when queen anne died without children) they ran out of heirs in britain and he next eligible guy in line was in hanover, germany so they made him king. so the current dynasty has its roots in hanover.
then like >>1752734 said, they kept marrying german princes and princesses because for a long time wwhat is now germany was made up of a bunch of tiny kingdoms which provided a lot of marriageable princesses. queen vicoria also married a german prince and changed the dynastic name to his name. the british reigning house was saxe-coburg-gotha until ww1 where they changed it to windsor.
prince philip was also of german stock so even now they have a lt of german blood.
it's not an oddity; usually euro royals married foreigners. louis XIV might be the most famous french king but by blood he was only 25% french.

Is Saw X supposed to be before he started the traps, during or after? Because for one thing I cannot ignore the fact he is elderly, like way more elderly than he was in 2004, homie can't even stand up straight he's so frail. Two this is interfering with the plot in the third one where he kidnapped that doctor to perform brain surgery on him. And three he's supposed to be dead, so where in between the first three movies did he run away to a clinic in Mexico to get illegal brain surgery or was that supposed to be before the first three movies, if it was before that still doesn't make sense because there has never been any mention of a brain surgery, he would also have scars and his wife would've known about it.

But in one of the scenes in the beginning of Saw X after his "surgery" (kek) he was drawing a trap idea and it looked like the reverse bear trap, I thought the implication being this was before Amanda. Also wasn't his first victim Cecil, the guy who caused the death of him and Jill's child? That makes the timeline of this movie more confusing, so it's supposed to be taking place after the death of his child and after he's trapped Amanda but before he kidnaps the doctor in the third movie?

Where he's basically telling her that he's going to fuck her but he's hoping she consents because he doesn't want to rape her, but he will. I know that was just in her imagination but that scene was so weird.

What's the website you could see deleted Reddit comments on called? Is it unddit? It doesn't work to me for some reason. Is there an alternative?

>Do all first kisses/makeout suck?
I thought I wasn't into kissing because I didn't care for it with my ex (never told him that tho kek). It wasn't until after we had broken up and I got together with another guy I realized that it was just my ex being bad at kissing. Not from inexperience either, he had dated way more than I had. I had no idea people could even be bad at it until then lmao

It doesn't work anymore because reddit changed their website model so unless the other website pays them millions per year, they can't "visit" the site enough times to gather the data needed to show you deleted posts/comments.
This was two months ago, so someone might have created a work around by now but I don't personally know of anything yet.

Sorry new stupid question derived from this

How are restaurant foods so calorie heavy? Don't American portion sizes on me, I'm not American and my country has regular portions and they're still very heavy calorie wise. like what do they do to turn a dish I could make at home for 500 into 1500?

They usually add a fuckton of fats to make everything taste better without much effort kek. Most restaurant dishes are drowning in butter.

it's a simple trick for restaurant food to taste better, double the salt and triple the fats
one tablespoon of oil is 120 calories, it's not hard to had on the fats expecially on salads and vegetables
