Off-topic random shit thread but the only rule is DO NOT TALK ABOUT MOIDS.

Doesn't matter if it's scrotes you hate, moids you love, scrotes you are attracted to, moids you aren't attracted to, scrotes you personally know, moids you don't personally know, scrotes that literally just exist, husbandos, yaoi, bara, het ships, nonexistent men, hypothetical men (including even God or Jesus), men's opinions, none of these things are allowed ITT. NO PICTURES of moids (including animated moids) allowed either. This also includes trannies since they are men. If an anon mentions males ITT, report immediately and do not respond.

>But why?
It's exhausting and annoying to see anons talking about nothing but moids over and over.

>Isn't this thread redundant?
If only.

>But what about-
Real life animals are fine but otherwise just follow the Rule of thumb: if you have to ask then it most likely belongs elsewhere so don't even bother.

I always make fun of my cat when she's licking so much that it's egregious. I'll watch her and make a loud slurping noise. It pisses her off so badly, but she overgrooms sometimes and it's the only way I've found that makes her stop. How do you gyns annoy your pets?

Yeah, she has that, but the over grooming also stems from her being mildly allergic to something in her environment and then being stressed about that. It's a no win cycle for cats.

What are you thinking of ordering? Because nine hundred and ninety-nine times out of a thousand, shein is utter garbage shit. You won't get what is advertised, and on the small chance you get what the pictures look like, it's made out of such cheap materials that it dissolves in the washer after three or four washes (no exaggeration). However, sometimes you can get deals, especially if you're ordering something small made out of metal. Like I ordered a chain of metal cactus charms and they came as advertised.

I’ve been having a really rough go at it recently and think it’s because I am still in grief over life circumstances. I’ve been putting off stuff that I use to never even fathom putting off, I just am so spent I can’t bring myself to care about them. I need to be working hard to help future me but current me is a husk of her former self and can barely function in her day to day. I am so sad for my younger self, not just child me but the one from a year ago too. I usually try and work for them and to make them happy, but I just can’t right now. If nonnys could spare some kind thoughts for me I would so greatly appreciate it, I can’t talk about this too much irl for various reasons so most of my support has to come from me. It’s just really hard right now.

Past yous carried you to where you are now. They don't need you to work as hard; they can have their rest. Future you will show clemency and kindness and be proud of all your hard work. So let yourself breathe deeply and enjoy being the you that you are now. Take care of yourself and give yourself each day something that makes life sweeter: the rays of sunshine on your face, a warm drink in the evenings, The simple joy of a laugh.

that grief can be really hard to let go.
it is not forming any direction, it just is an expanding room, it takes up space into the future, to the past and you kinda just sit in this space without any mobility. just have to accept of what is. i hope that does not feel disheartening to you.
i find it easier to allow it. eventually, that sorrow changes into acceptance, some kind of mellow simplicity. and if you reach that stage, try not to stay in there out of fear to be set back once more.

it sounds like you are just exhausted and need some rest. what you ahve put aside, will come back once you have recovered. give yourself some time to fill up your reservoir and let the passion of what you never wanted to put off, decides when it wants to come back. patience.

Had the saddest client today. She hired me to deep clean her house and I went in and the place was spotless. She greeted me, then said she was going to the gym.
Her house didn't look like a home. All of her furniture was new and from ikea, there was no color or personal touches, and the six pieces of art were all generic stuff that was brand new and untouched. There were two photos in the entire apartment, one from when she graduated college, and one that was a baby photo of her and another baby where the frame said "sisters." The only other touch was her work badge hanging from a key holder. The only thing in her trash was an empty glass bottle of vodka and an empty bottle of diet coke.
So I dusted and cleaned everything, and when she came back she was really pleased. I asked if she had just moved in, and she said no, she has lived there for five years. I prodded to see if maybe she had another house and this was her work house, but she mentioned this was the only place she'd lived since graduating college.
It was just lonely. Like someone had moved into one of those houses that are only show houses to advertise furniture, but then they never moved or touched anything. I hope she's doing okay mentally.

Real talk, I think there are subtleties and nuance to racism that most Americans overlook. Because my American grandma really looks down on Polish people and tried to dissuade my cousin from marrying a girl who's parents were Polish. And she has some strong thoughts about the Irish, yet Polish, Irish, and us are all white.
Yet her neighbor friend has an Irish mother, so my grandma excuses it by saying that she's one of the good ones. So I think that we're just prone to hate groups by the actions of the majority of the group, yet fully capable of seeing people we know as fully realized individuals.

Practice. Go on YouTube, search how to draw, and then you'll get step by step lessons. Or, if you want to learn how to paint landscapes, watch Bob Ross. After that, it's just practice.
>Does it feel good to have such an ability?
If you don't take yourself seriously, is the best thing in the world. You'll be scrolling, think, I want to draw a moth enjoying a birthday party, and then you do a little sketch and get to look at it with pride. Plus, it's a hilarious party trick and it makes kids think you're magic.

Those were the days when the old culture was still strong. The LC of 2024 is a cheap facsimile of the LC before the pandemic. It has no charm, or reason, or joie de vivre. It's just empty farce. We're all still trying to dance, but the music stopped playing a long time ago.

You can call it a couple of different things depending on what part of it you're focusing on. But if you search for paper collage, decoupage, or paper tole, you'll find similar examples of it. This particular example was done by Anne Rosat, a Swiss artist.

Working at a call center made me realize how scarily, easily obtainable someone's info is. Like we (the agents) were literally just given literally everything you could want to know about a person.

I do think this and I hate it. Because I can't afford a house yet, and I'll be playing Minecraft or Sims and building my dream house and having fun, and BAM! my brain will point out how I'll never be able to afford what was an extremely modest middle class lifestyle only twenty years ago even though I did everything right that adults told me to do. And then I'll get very depressed and will realize I'm just holding a fasimile of my dreams and it's nothing but pointless pixels.

At first I couldn't tell either, but it's because I was looking at the centre of the image. I've noticed with a lot of AI pictures, the centre of the image of other focal point is a lot more "clear" than the other bits. As soon as I started looking at other parts of the image, I could tell. Look at upper right-hand side of the dollhouse, you can see it's clearly AI from the weird shit going on with the roof and the window. Then, upon looking closer, you see all these other weird things like the shutters on the front door.

So I own a little house (680 sq ft) and it's a cute little cape cod. And currently, the previous owner decorated it in a very cottage way (simple white cupboards, chicken and vine wallpaper, yellow carpet) which is cute and I like, but every door is the original wood with the brass art deco style knobs and locks from the 1920s. And this makes me want to start changing the house's style to art deco. Do you think it would be stupid to style such a tiny cape cod like that? Do you think I should just leave it cottage style and encourage that decor?

I am high, and I am dearly missing my best friend. How she’d come over and we’d watch a movie, and then pause it and talk the whole time anyways, making each other laugh for hours on end. We don’t talk anymore, and after a year and a half my heart still aches for her company.

I guess I feel a little more validated knowing that I truly did have a once in a lifetime friendship and that other people have mourned the loss of this too. It’s dramatic of me, but I feel that we were almost soulmates in a sense. I wish our paths hadn’t diverged as they did.

No. 2313782

i feel the same way. i think it’s important that we recognize that friendships CAN be that deep. women are always taught to value romantic relationships and it’s normal to mourn those. but my best friend and i went through more in a decade supporting each other and even forgave each other through more than any partner i’ve had. that has to count for something but probably not to hee which breaks my heart.

It's been 5 years for me too. She can still talk to me but she hurt me way too much and was a handful so I limited contact. The longer I go without having a best friend, the more I realize just how rare it is to have a connection that deep and we were lucky to experience it, but it still doesn't make me feel better. It also doesn't help that most of the friends in my circle have besties too and I'm an odd one out.

I met this 20 yo kid about a month or two ago at a night out with friends. Turns out she's work adjacent to several of them so i've been seeing her at a lot of outings.
She's a good kid, has her head on straight. Pretty too, i like how she dresses.
Problem is she's developed a crush on me and i just… why can't she be around my age? Why couldn't i have met someone like her when i was in my 20s myself. Ugh. I'm twice her age, ffs

Ntayrt but sometimes there's nothing really to "fix." The woman I was friends with for 9+ years and I just slowly drifted apart. She made her choices in life and I made mine, and so we just started walking in different directions. Sometimes we still talk, maybe a few hours every year, but at the zenith of our friendship we were communicating almost 12 hours a day. In hindsight, I think that type of relationship is really only possible in your late teens and early 20s. Nothing can stay the same forever. We have different lives, different passions, different ideas; we both grew so much during our friendship and learned so much about ourselves that in the end, we weren't even really the same two people anymore. I still think of her as a friend, I think I always will, but I know that trying to force something that isn't there won't work out in our favour.

Losing a best friend can be a really sad experience, but it taught me a lot about myself. Namely, I shouldn't even have a best friend. Now that we aren't a part of each others' lives anymore, I have a lot of different really great friendships with people that would have been impossible to forge had I been so preoccupied with only one person. For me, I don't wanna be in that situation again where I rely on only one person for every social need, I want to have a group of different interesting people that I can hang out with and learn something new from.

This and the responses to it are genuinely making me cry right now. I've been wishing and trying so hard to have another female best friend who I was as close with as I was her. I know there has to be another woman out there like me who feels this way, who I would get along with, but I don't know where she is. Seeing other anons relate doesn't make me feel better, kind of makes me feel worse. Because it doesn't make sense. There's so many people in the world so how is it that I can't find another connection like the one I had with her? Are close friendships really that rare? If so that's insanely disheartening to me.
>>2313851
She actually sent me a friend request recently so I messaged her but she's been ignoring that message for whatever reason, even though she's been online. I'm sick of feeling like I'm chasing after her. I don't want to freak her out by sending another message or whatever.

No. It was my fault the friendship ended. I’ve reached out to apologize but beyond politely acknowledging it she seems to have zero interest in talking to me again.
I also dream about her sometimes. I think there are too many memories of her tiedto places in this city, including my own apartment. I desperately await the day I can move out and hopefully get away from some of this, but I don’t want to forget about her either.

she told me she felt nothing for me anymore except for “concern” in a condescending way after being friends for almost ten years. i had been raped and was a mess. she didn’t know that because she had been extremely condescending to me for a year at that point. she clearly felt she outgrew me and was above me.

i actually feel the opposite. i tend to get over friendships (even close ones) fairly easily. i've had at least 3 huge "friend breakups" with my besties throughout my life, and i rarely think about them now. sometimes i'll see stuff that reminds me of them, but i don't get sad about it or hold a grudge. i enjoy my friends while i'm with them, but when it's over, it's over. i guess i'm the weird one here.

I got ear acupuncture before that was meant to be for stress/anxiety. I was sceptical but also only got it because it was free. Wasn't worried about the needles anyway but barely felt them. I'd usually end up almost asleep by the end. Then I slept well the nights after it'd been done. All in all I'd do it again if free.

the sad thing is, she was really really struggling and i think that was the reason she acted like that and not her inherently. i started typing out everything that was affecting her at the time intending for it just to show how hard she had it and it became an actual paragraph as i remembered more and more and it’s too personal to post her problems on here. it was actually a lot more than i remember when i think of her usually and that made me feel really guilty for not giving her more patience. she also had just found out she had pcos and i will say that she rarely used it as an excuse but said that her hormones were making her aggressive and i could honestly see a genuine change in her that hadn’t been there before. i will still kind of defend her to the death. we had stopped being friends and then come back to our friendship multiple times and every time we reconnected things would start so good and i felt like soul bonded to her. i wonder now if she ever felt the same way and feel stupid when i remember she had other friends she was probably just as close with. maybe more and she just didn’t tell me cos she didn’t want to make me look stupid idk. i knew i could go back but i had to break the cycle. and she never once reached out which just told me she did not care and didn’t want to be friends either.

It's kinda hard for me to respect or take women who are in sororities seriously because I know they probably had to do something crazy humiliating to get in one kek. Like get tied into a ball, covered in honey and rolled down a muddy, ant-infested hill or some shit. Then you have to friends with the "big sisters" who hazed you, and you can't even get back at them because they already got hazed too. All of that cult shit just for women you could've befriended normally.

Here's from an article, it explains why people join them better than I could
>A sorority is an organization on a college campus whose purpose is to foster friendship and community, among other things. There are chapters of Greek life spread around universities in both the U.S. and Canada
>Each sorority has its own goals, rules, and expectations, but they’re generally similar across all Greek life. Membership to a sorority is gained if you can prove you have the qualities that fit with their specific requirements. The qualities they typically look for are usually based on things like your personality, your academic achievements, community participation, and campus activity.
>Many new college students seek to join a sorority since it provides a sense of community and gives space for students to form bonds and friendships. Greek life is also associated with a certain type of lifestyle, which can help students feel like they fit in somewhere or help them integrate into campus life.
>Greek life also provides an invaluable network that members have access to their whole lives. Sorority sisters are often encouraged to help one another, especially when it comes to their careers. This networking opportunity can help open a lot of doors to graduating students.
>Additionally, sororities also set a high standard for academic achievement and behavior, which means members are held accountable for their performance and actions.

Basically, you're paying and (at the beginning) humiliating yourself in order to get into an exclusive club where you'll have access to befriend people who are much richer and more connected than you. Once befriended, you can then call upon them for small favors throughout your life, especially if you continue to send each other Christmas cards throughout the years. The other month, I wanted to visit a city I'd never been to, so I messaged my sorority sister and she let me crash on her couch for four days instead of me having to spring for a hotel, and we hadn't spoken in over a decade, and I hadn't seen her since college.
How much of a ritual you have to go through in order to enter depends not only on which one you're joining, but the individual campus and location. So mine was pretty chill, we had to get drunk with our sisters and then serve the senior sisters brunch the next morning while we pretended to not be super hung over.
There's a couple other things you have to do in your first week, but one, bad bad hazing never really seemed to be a huge part of sororities (though I have heard of some people who went to prison and got their sorority shut down because they took the hazing too far, but that's make the news rare), and two, hazing has mellowed extremely in the past thirty years. Colleges have a very very strict no hazing policy now, so much so that some colleges ban my sorority's traditional scavenger hunt. My roommate joined a different sorority and her hazing was not being allowed to wear makeup for one week and she had to wear a shirt that said something like "I'm joining "sorority" and it's my first week!", but even that has since been banned because it's considered too harsh of hazing.
Then, once they let you pledge, you have do a little cult ritual where you dress up and there's candles and spookiness but it's just all play pretend because it's tradition. One girl took it way too seriously and cried afterwards because she was so happy she got in, but the rest of us were like, "Lol, that's gay, let's go to Denny's." and that was that.
