How do I convince my mom to buy me a new phone

My phone is absolute shit, like I'm grateful for it but this thing has 64gb storage, it lags from just scrolling on tiktok, randomly turns off and sometimes the sound comes out like static.

Something else that annoys me, all I have is this potato phone, while my dad has 3 phones, 3 ipads and I forgot what else, my mom has 3 phones, an iPad and a laptop, but God forbid I ask to get a new phone for once. I use this phone for everything, I make edits and the lag is horrible, I have no storage for scene packs. I only play live service games so every month it's a roulette of what gets deleted this time

My dad is the kind of person who has a well paying job but he blows the money on everyone but our family. So how do I guilt/ convince him into handing over €800 for a new phone

why do yall want pedophiles to message u oml

its so obvious sometimes when yall have ulterior motives when someone on here posts w their age n asking for "friends'' or someone to talk to, esp if theyre not even stating any interests they have or topic discussions n the post is just solely "anyone wanna chat?"..

not saying every post is like that but some of yall r definitely lonely desperate mfs who want some sort of adult validation and attention and ik bc I USED 2 BE LIKE THAT TOO.

also p sure posting on here inviting ppl to ur dms isnt allowed but these mods take forever to take some of those posts down sometimes

all yall stay safe esp you young teens.

I feel like I can’t breathe when I drink vodka; normal?

Is this normal? I don’t drink often btw and do it with mum’s supervision/green light. It’s not that I physically can’t inhale, it’s that my mouth gets so warm it feels like I can’t, even if I know cognitively that I’m fine. My heart races bad as a result too. Is that normal? I can drink other things just fine but vodka gives me these trapped or suffocating feelings for a few moments

Am making an motorized satellite/airplane tracker. Wanted to share :)

Finally managed to make it rotate the azimuth. It's quite heavy lol. The cables do hit 120°C, so I might need thicker ones.

Anyways, I'm finding this quite interesting, so wanted to see what others thought :3

Finally 20!!

Finally 20 today and just wanted to say thank r/teenagers for giving me a small community for a while. All I can say to everyone here is to stay out of trouble, enjoy your teenage hood and do the things you’re scared to do. I wish someone told me to want more for myself as a teen so I’ll tell you guys that. Not to be corny but don’t give up! Also please for the love of god don’t date anyone more than 2 years older than you AND don’t go to college parties if you look older than you are. (Saying this bc I somehow met a group of 15 years older than olds yesterday at a college party). Anyways good luck and goodbye.

I’m going on a beach trip and idk what to pack.

I’m going on a beach trip with my family in the summer. We got a house that leads directly to the beach so I can walk out and already be in the sand. My mom said she’s gonna rent bikes because why not. There’s a boardwalk about 5 minutes away with a pool and I think drinks I don’t remember if I had water or a shirly temple. My mom said I can walk around the beach in the evening by myself and I can use a bike to go around the island we go there every year so we know the area. I’m not sure what would be good to bring when using the bike I don’t even know what bag I could bring maybe a backpack, idk can someone give me some ideas on what would be a good idea to have please.

I want to forget

I’m 14 now but I understand stuff that I’m not supposed to understand at this age I don’t think so. When I was younger around 8-9 I got exposed to nsfw content I think that has messed me up I regret ever searching up those words classmates whispered about. I have a trash relationship with my dad early on age 5 and younger sister. NSFW content has been normalized for me I don’t react the same way all my other friends do my parents have a bad marriage they always fight they don’t live together (different countries) I live with my mom my sister with my dad. I feel so lonely and unloved by everyone I feel like a nothing idk if I’m depressed I’m not emo I push these feelings to the back of my head I’m afraid to talk to a lot of people I don’t want to tell anyone this not even my mom. I don’t know bro I can’t go on like this I’m so empty

Just something I heard somewhere, thought it would make it better

For the past while, which is a lot longer than I would like to admit, I have been quite addicted to pornographic content and 'gooning.' And there is no end in sight.
But I just remembered that I heard somewhere that 'the best way to kill porn before it kills you, is to tell someone or make it more public then private.' So this is me doing that.
If you have any good advice on anything that might've helped you stop or wane off of it, I ask that you share it. No pressure though.

Thank you for taking your time to read this and/or comment. I hope your day goes well, and that no harm will come to you today.

Quinceañera dilemma

so me and my younger sister are planning to do a sweet sixteen and quinceañera in one party next year since I’m turning 15 in 3 months so it doesnt give us enough time, and also so it’s cheaper for my dad. but the problem we have is our conflicting aesthetics and colors we want to do.

in the first slides are my sisters aesthetic, she wants a pink dress and is all about cute things, but my aesthetic is more dark and i want my dress to be black. Bad thing is that these two things don’t match. we both think that pink and black look too tacky and remind us too much of Victoria secret.

my sister tried looking at different colors that match with the light pink she wants to have but she has said none of the colors match my dark aesthetic. we don’t know what to do, and I really don’t want to make my sister change what she wants since I feel bad. so I am open to changing. Hopefully this makes sense, I’ll probably edit it after a while So it’s better since it’s 5am for me. Maybe I can make my sister chose a more gray-ish pink but I don’t really want too.
