So I get cramps in my stomach too, but I get a different kind also.
I’d describe it as feeling like a sudden, sharp, jab up my ass. Like I can’t walk for a second, I’m good after that though. It’s very short, but really hurts. Who else deals with this? And what helps? Cause I’m sick of this shit.
I just don’t understand why some find it necessary to go at people and call them names over a completely inconsequential opinion. Like not liking shows, or sports teams, or hair colors, or brands, or whatever.
Especially on Reddit. I’ve seen long ass threads of people insulting each other and throwing cheap shots over what? Whether dogs or cats are better, or why people like a fictional character. Can we be serious? There are posts on here that get mass downvoted and the OP’s get attacked to shit because they said they didn’t enjoy a movie.
This happens less in real life, but it still does. except in real life it’s mainly literal children who do it, and online it’s mainly grown ass adults acting like children and stomping their feet over someone not liking their favorite artist. Can people not have civil conversations anymore? (Ik how ironic it is to say this on Reddit, but come on).
Anyone who has a savior complex, and says that kind of shit, No, no you can’t. If you aren’t qualified you can’t fix shit, you’ll most likely just get hurt. Even if you do, do some good for them, it’s at the expense of your sanity, energy, and you’ll end up worse after it.
People keep saying that shit and then getting in deep shit. It’s the worst kind of mindset to have, focus on fixing yourself first. Let them be. You’re not responsible.
You can’t fix people, the person who you are trying to “fix” needs to put in the effort to fix themselves first, if they don’t care, it’s just not gonna happen. Save your energy and peace.
Ive always had a little bit of a fuller face, even though I was always thin. But right now my BMI is 19.5, yet, my face is still my face. Like I don’t wanna loose anymore weight because I don’t wanna be underweight, so what do I do about it?
Unfortunately I do think it might be genetic, no one in my family has a particularly “thin” face or whatever you’d call it. I’m 19 too, so that might play a role in it.
But it’s an issue too because my face gets really puffy in the morning no matter what, and I hate it, because I don’t need it any more…puffy.
What do I do? Does anyone have any advice? At least just to reduce the puffiness, because I know there’s not much I can do about it.
So I have long nails, and my dumbass accidentally hits them wrong on everything. On car doors, tables, anything really. So they get these creases, and give up on me in strangest ways. I just now broke my nail on a fucking bed sheet, because it already had that crease. Kill me.
I swear to god they are the most dramatic mfs ever. Just these three days alone I’ve seen someone say they’d sue anyone who insults them in their comments on their public posts. Ive seen someone tell a guy who was complaining about some gas station’s prices that he should be careful or they’ll sue him. I’ve seen someone ask if they can take someone to court for taking two parking spaces (even though that sucks). You can’t just report everything! I mean, you can but should you?
What do you mean you’ll take someone to court because they swore at you in your public instagram post? Are you crazy or a child or just have too much money? I didn’t know there are so many of these people before but it’s all over where I live.
In the motorcycle race, Jj’s lips were blue, rafe and Sarah’s too. It looked so weird to me on the first watch, like they’re all tanned as hell and wearing summer clothes but then their lips are blue?
I think I read or seen somewhere that when they shot that scene it was cold. I’m not sure though, but if that’s true how they hell were they not shaking if their lips were blue like that? That’s impressive.
This shit has been going on for *years.* I’m in uni now studying electrical engineering, so it’s especially bad. When it’s English or something back at school I always remembered what I memorized. But if it’s math or physics or anything like that, no matter how much I study, as soon as I see the paper, my brain is empty. I mix up problems, and solve them half right. It only happens at finals and midterms, the most important shit. I don’t know what to do!!
I spent days studying for my calculus final, so sure I’m gonna ace it. Today I walk in, I see the stupid fucking paper and my brain leaves all the sudden. I can barely tell the problems apart, I cannot focus, it’s like a I barely even studied.
Does anyone know how to deal with this? This is my second time retaking calculus man.
Just ew. It’s so creepy.
I didn’t realize it was as big of a problem as it was, until my college professor, this older man, started showing us that Brad Pitt and tom cruise fighting video. It felt like a fever dream, how did he find out about that shit? And how have we gotten to the point that we’re sat there like 15 whole minutes while he tells us about how AI can be dangerous and that you should be careful and how people got tricked.
It’s all over Pinterest too, if you follow any fandom of any show or movie, chances are you come across some weird AI clone of them doing something they wouldn’t do with another cast member, or some other thing. It makes me sick. Why. God why.
I’ve always hated them, any kind. Having to say good morning, being asked about my day, having to say hello to a relative every now and then.
I’m naturally a quiet person, so I especially hate it, like sometimes I don’t actually wanna talk to anyone in the morning. I don’t wanna hear about anything.
It especially frustrates me though because I come from a culture where that’s a *huge* thing. Like you have to greet each family member individually every time you see them, and some friends wanna be greeted every time you text them too, and you have to know the right response to whatever they tell you. Like if they say x, you have to say y exactly. Like if you don’t know the trillion phrases or forget them sometimes it’s seen as disrespectful.
I maybe would’ve been more okay with it if I’ve been raised that way, and had been around people and friends who do that. But I hadn’t. My parents don’t greet each other beyond the normal hey, and they don’t say thank you or anything to each other, or none of those phrases, (they’re not very pleasant to eachother), so it never really stuck with me. If I saw them do or say those things I always thought it was an “adult” thing (it’s not, btw, if you get to a certain age you have to know those things). Then all the sudden I was disrespectful and uncultured for not knowing how to respond to shit, or not having that instinct to be like that with people.
Oh my god, why do I have to pretend to care about this shit. Why do I have to do the whole routine before actually saying what I wanna say.
I got into this show early 2021, a little before season 2 came out, and I’ve always loved jj and pope’s friendship, especially in season 1. They seemed the closest out of all of them.
I also like how Jj tried to get Kiara with pope, because he knew pope liked her and he thought pope was good. I just didn’t like how the writers later made them weird to each other because of Kiara. (I also don’t like how in season 4 when jj told pope on that boat that he would’ve rather been shot, pope didn’t do anything about it. At least not from what we saw).
-jj tells pope he loves him more than the other pogues.
-pope hugged jj after jj told him what his dad did to him at midsummers, and was worried about him.
-they wear the same damn shirts.
-Jj’s also so protective of him along the seasons and puts his life on the line for him.
-and Jj took the fault for him (I’ve always though it was weird how Jj cared most about pope’s scholarship, since he took the fall so pope can go to college, while the others didn’t really care as much).
-then pope went to Jail and ruined his future just for Jj in season 4 which Jj felt really bad about, like how pope felt bad in season 1.
-when pope said “let me protect you for once” in season 4.
-this is kind of stretch here, but jj told john b in season 1 that when Kiara kissed him on the cheek it was because she liked him. Then jj kissed pope on the cheek two episodes later.
-jj also told topper he was willing to go to prison for pope in season three when they were trying to get the cross back.
-and the obvious: they have opposite personalities so it works.
I swear they are so cute, and had the best chemistry by far except for maybe John b and Sarah. They could’ve been such a great couple, in an alternate universe maybe, because clearly Netflix wasn’t interested in them (and I don’t think jj and pope swing that way but they COUDVE BEEN).
They’re cute as friends too I guess, and I know jj is selfless and loyal with all the pogues really, but he was most with pope.
I was in a restaurant with my friend, and she was talking about how her other friend got lipo because the doctor said she has too or she’ll get diabetes, so we got on the topic of body weight. I told her woman have a wide range or healthy body weight anyway, because we have a higher fat percentage than men. She didn’t know much about BMI, then she looked her height and age up, and she was 3 kg over the end of the healthy weight spectrum.
My stomach dropped, not because of her weight, but because of the look on her face. She’s always been told to loose weight her entire life, and it’s a sensitive topic, and she used to starve herself when she was like 13. So I’m scared that if she knows this information now, she might get more insecure, and starve herself again.
I tried to compensate and tell her that it’s not really that bad if your a little over the BMI range, then we talked about health, and how she wanted to be healthier. I told her to just drink water, eat less junk, move around, get more protein and fiber, eat mostly Whole Foods, always eat, you don’t have to be starving to be healthy or on a diet. But idk if she’ll take my advice or not.
I feel guilty as hell now, but the BMI thing just slipped out, idk what to do now.
It’s certainly a very admirable thing, but also why would you want to risk your life like that? Do you not have people who care about you? Do you just do it for the sake of science and helping people? Is it for money?
And wouldn’t it be very unethical when it kills people or is likely to do so but they do the trial anyway?
Im curious. I’m sure no one that volunteers for these kinds of studies is here, but if you are one of these people (or know one of them) and you’re reading this I wanna know.
I’ll try to keep this short because this shit has been with me for years, and I don’t want to go too deep into it, and I want to fix it.
Basically, like a lot of teen girls, I started becoming self-conscious around age 12. No one really said anything bad about my looks, I mostly said positive things. But my brain did what it did, and I had an issue with mainly nose and my teeth.
My teeth I’ve gotten over, kind of, because it’s such a minor thing that people tell me they didn’t even notice until I pointed it out. But my nose? No. My nose is wider than I’d like, and I hated it so much that I wanted to kill myself over it. Like it was serious for me, it got in the way of everything.
I try to logic my way out of it. I have big features; My eyes are big, my lips are big, so my nose being a little big should make sense for my face. But lately, that hasn’t been working.
I’m in college now, and I thought I had gotten over it over the years, but this year it came back. My uncle got married to a perfectly normal, good looking woman. But my aunt and cousin surprised the hell out of me when they said she’s “not the prettiest girl.” My cousin straight up called her ugly and said she’s very average.
I disagreed, and I still do. I’ve never thought anyone is “ugly” (I kinda can’t when I think so low of myself). But it made me think who the hell do they consider pretty then?
That same night, the same cousin told me she wanted to tell me something but wasn’t sure if she should. I told her to just say it, and she said her cousin saw a photo of me, my graduation photo, and said, “Well, I think her mom’s way prettier than her.” My mom is pretty, yeah, but she said it as an insult. Like I’m ugly or something.
At the time I didn’t care, but the more I sat with it, the more it bothered me, brought some old shit up. Then I started noticing a pattern, the people my family calls pretty don’t look like me. So do they think I’m not pretty?
I don’t even care what they specifically think, but I know the way they think is probably the majority where I live, I’ve always had the minority view on things. And I’ve let it get to me to the point where I’m uncomfortable taking pictures again. I get tense and weirdly defensive around any discussion about people looking good or bad, and I feel this weird social hierarchy again.
I know I shouldn’t care, the past two years I really thought I didn’t care anymore, then this happens.
I don’t know how to get out of that hole now. Does anybody have any advice?
Ik this topic has probably been used and abused at this point but I’m tired of this shit man.
This applies in fiction, and in real life too, but anytime I get into any fandom of a movie or a tv show there’s always this objectively attractive character that’s actually a shit person, but immediately excused because they’re attractive.
Like oh, the attractive one fucked someone over? They killed someone? They were racist or bigoted in some way? They’re misunderstood and complicated.
But if the less conventionally attractive character dares to be a little bit of an asshole or annoying? No no no, they are horrible.
It pisses me off so bad. It’s all fictional, who cares, right? But why does it happened every. Single. Time.
People loose their morals once Someone has a pretty face. It also really bothers me because those same people who will defend the bad attractive character will fight with their whole chest that they’re actually just hurt and need love. We are all hurt and need love! Just say you think they’re hurt and move on with your day why do you have to delude yourself? (And im not talking about the people who like morally bankrupt charters because they’re just interesting, I like those too).
Theres even more examples of this in real life than fiction which is so scary, so many attractive, Rich, and powerful people getting away with shit or forgiven mainly because they’re attractive, not just for money and power.
On the other end of the spectrum, people will just find any excuse to hate attractive people even if they did nothing wrong, but that’s a topic for another day.
If I just imagine someone I love dying I feel like I’m gonna puke. Like it really really gets me, people can get taken away from you so fast. Early 2020 my aunt married her husband, mid 2020 he died suddenly, no warning whatsoever, in the family’s house. Apparently he’d had issues with his back or something, I think, and he hid it from my aunt, because he didn’t wanna worry her. Not long after, maybe a few weeks, he died at his parent’s house. Just like that.
I feel like people don’t respect death, even online. like a public figure dies and you’re flooding their family member’s/friend’s accounts? Let them grieve. Oh my god. Grief is one of the worst things someone could go through, and people don’t treat it as such. It really really bothers me.
Even when I see it on tv, a movie or a tv show, a character looses someone they love and 6 times out of 10 I feel like the grief is way too rushed or not realistic.
Am I too sensitive or do you think people have gotten desensitized to death and grief too?
If you have a disagreement with someone, or you fight, most the time it’s best to address it before it becomes one of those things that add on the other and the other and then your fighting all the time. I don’t people that don’t go out of their way to “fix” things, with someone that they care about. Sitting in unresolved tension is never good. It’s also good to take breaks and time, but never getting to it is bad.
For example, I have this friend that does this all the time. We argue about something incredibly stupid, or one of us does something to piss the other off, and her way of lighting the mood again is storming off. Literally. It’s happen enough times that it’s just a thing that she does now.
She also complains about her other friend never wanting to talk shit out, when she’s exactly this wayyy.
I’ve had other friends that do that too, family. Idk why so many people just default to ignoring the elephant in the room, it pisses me off so bad. Especially if they then complain about it, you don’t get to complain about shit if you don’t go out of your way to fix it!
You could argue some of the rest of the characters are bad too, which yes. But he was such a prick that it would’ve been better if he just stayed single and figured his shit out, then dated someone.
Or Atleast dated someone just as bat shit as him, which would’ve been more interesting, and made me feel less bad about the poor soul that had to deal with Damon.
طفولتي كلها ليش سك؟؟ 💔💔 ولله كان قوي
I’m sure this has been said a million times over again, but it really has been bad lately. Why do I have to click on some obnoxious, neon, “ITS OVER”, with devil horns added, just to get a very lukewarm tame take about some drama or celebrity? Oh my god.
And whats with the AI too??? You can’t even just photoshop your thumbnails anymore you have to use gallons of water just to make your shitty thumbnail?
I miss normal thumbnails.
