AH, new thread, thank you! I have a stupid interior design related question let's go:
What would you do with the space across the sofa anons? The obvious choice would be the tv but I do all my gaming at the desk and only watch tv shows and stuff while working, so maybe it would be unnecessarily doubling the same purpose as currently my computer serves… I don't have any other idea tho

No. 826931

>>826930
If you don't want to put a tv there, some options are:
>bookshelves
>a large painting/print/piece of artwork
>a fish tank
>an easel if you're into art
>a little bar table
>record player/sound system with music collection
>one or two large beanbag chairs so you can sit across the coffee table with people
>a plant wall

I'm trying to lose weight by keeping a food diary and eating 1500 kcal daily (sometimes less), as well as exercising for 30 minutes and fasting 20/4. I have checked all the weight loss calculators that provide you with your daily calorie rate and according to all of them, I should be more or less losing weight (thanks to CICO). Too bad that I saw all the anachan shit like 'eat 200 calories daily max uwu' on Luna's new blog, and now I'm somehow concerned that I'm not doing enough for my weight loss??? I know it's idiotic, but can someone please weight in on that… My mind is being retarded, I need to hear the truth from someone else.

Anon you are doing just fine. Sticking to your routine that keeps you disciplined will help you lose weight and keep it off instead of going off the edge into one extreme and then yo-yoing straight back to where you started. Or launching you into an unhealthy relationship with your food and weight rather post-weight loss rather than just living a normal, healthier life. Good luck on your weight loss journey anon, I believe you can do it!

Buy (or make) multiple pillow cases at the very least so you can switch to a clean set once or twice a week. Ikea sells cheap cotton ones that are fine. I try to limit the transfer of day-to-day bacteria by showering before getting into bed and wrapping my hair in a satin scarf (since hair collects oil, debris etc). If you're worried about acne from bacterial transfer maybe avoid using towels after washing your face too.

What are the chances of ever electing an openly misandrist/pro-female radfem politician in the US? I'm aware that being anti-male is going to negatively affect a candidate's chances, so let's say she did a bait & switch. If one even existed how would she get elected in burgerland?
Imo you'd have to run under a Republican/Democrat platform and pull a bait & switch. You couldn't be open about being a radfem at first because while women are the majority of our populace, many of them are pickmes and wouldn't be down with a pro-woman candidate. And plus the left/right establishment will fund their promising candidates so if you 'fake' it well enough, you can get enough campaign contributions to use for your misandrist message eventually. You'd probably have to defect and announce it eventually, but I can't see how an open terf would get elected when the trans billionaire collective would probably get you deplatformed in an instant. While I do think it's better to be honest and I would rather create something like the Women's Party in South Korea, I think the actual chance of getting elected is so low.

An autist of unbelievable proportions. He is considered the most documented person in history (or at least the last 100 years). He grew up with Sonic the Hedgehog as his main influence in life, and kept living like a child well into his 20's. His parents had him when they were late in life (father deceased, Snorlax of a mom still living). He created a character called "Sonichu" (Sonic and Pikachu combined) and made a long-running comic about him. Chris also features in the comic as Sonichu's "father". Chris would also use the comic to vent about IRL people who didn't put up with his autistic shit. A few years back he started trooning out, first as a "tomgirl" and then into a full-blown troon. Ever since trooning out, he's embraced MLP (also an influence from his childhood) more and more.

Does anyone have thoughts on how common anorexia/emaciation fetishes are? I feel like it's something I very rarely hear talked about (lolcow is probably the most I see it get brought up).

But I hear plenty about fat fetishists and feederism, so I wonder if that's just more common, or if the bonecoomers just keep it to themselves more further away from the mainstream. It would make sense that an anorexia fetish is less socially acceptable than an obesity fetish.

On the other hand it's so unfathomable to me that anyone could get off on that shit, so maybe it is rare? I was looking at Eugenia Cooney's channel and seeing how many views she still gets on every video really makes me wonder how she still gets so many people to watch.

I'm not too sure how common it is, but I definitely feel like the scrotes into this are more devious and tend to fly under the radar. I have heard about it most in context of guys seeking out women with eating disorders and subtly or not so subtly encouraging their behaviors while keeping them from getting help. I saw a post I think on FDS a while back where they shared how some sick fuck stayed with a girlfriend he knew had a problem but never discussed it with her or brought it up with friends/family so she could get support. It ended with him fucking her one night and the next day she died. He was literally almost having sex with a corpse and didn't care when she was that far gone.

How much alcohol is too much? I drink one or two beers literally every day since the pandemic started. If we’re out of beer I drink wine or whiskey.

I think they’re very rare. BBW is a popular porn category whereas anorexia/emaciation certainly isn’t front page if it’s even a category at all in mainstream sites. Of course a lot of porn features skinny women but not at the level of undeniable anorexia or health issues.

I think social acceptability goes out of the window when it’s anonymous scrotes online. They’re shameless so I think anorexia fetishes are genuinely rare. The ones who exist are still sick fucks of course.

Another thing is that I’ve never accidentally stumbled across this fetish in the wild. I’ve somehow ended up on wikifeet before and stuff like that. But even as an ex-anachan who googled shit that would’ve sent me straight to these websites, it never happened to my memory. I only know this fetish even exists because it featured on a documentary, and they often cover very unusual issues.

That's way too much anon. You sound like a high-functioning alcoholic. Even if you're not getting straight up tipsy you are still essentially consuming small amounts of poison daily.

Nta but afaik that is less recommended. The government where I am recommends drinking under a certain amount of alcoholic units per week and some people talk about “saving up” their units to binge drink. All the advice says explicitly not to do this. You’re more likely to have an immediate medical emergency (such as alcohol poisoning or an accident because of impaired judgement) from binge drinking. I’m assuming the long term effects are not wildly different from drinking the same amount over a longer period of time though.

It's one of those things that you might tolerate well but is still putting consistent stress on your body. You say you've been drinking daily since the pandemic started (so over a year?) and I would be curious to see if you can stop without any side effects or feeling like you need another beer. If it's not an addiction or compulsive then it shouldn't be a problem right? You don't have to give it up entirely but it can be a slippery slope.

No. 827397

>>827375
Binge drinking is basically inducing the same effects in a more concentrated pace, in addition to risking some kind of accident or emergency like anon said. The science on alcohol is increasingly pointing to it negatively affecting your health in the long-term if you're regularly drinking at all. The degree will vary, but it's there nonetheless.

Idk much about the other parts of French Canada, as I understand it bilingualism is less common among the Acadian communities in the maritimes.

So no, I wouldn't say that there's discrimination against anglophones. It's mostly that some people just don't speak english, and since French is the official language, finding a job without that ability is going to be much more difficult. Quebec offers a lot of reasonable programs and resources for people to learn french. I think not trying to learn the language is the real barrier because it diminishes your experience of the place, you miss out on the opportunity to communicate with people.

How do I hold in my obvious sexual attraction to someone I'm in the early early stages of dating with?

It's been 2 years since I've fucked someone and you could cut the sexual tension between us with a spoon when we make eye contact. Masturbating doesn't take the edge off and I've made a compilation of intense moments of missionary in amateur videos, like I've created my own porn conpilation video which is probably the furthest I've gone. I need help. And casual sex I've realised does nothing for me, so I need to hold it in to get to know him better but I've never been this desperate before.

Many factors - Russia nowadays has a more traditionalist culture than most european countries, so with that comes cultural misogyny of course. Many Russian men are a shitty mix of violent/arrogant/patronizing or objectify-happy/incel-y/patronizing, all the while 90% of those men don't make up for their views with their looks or their contribution to society. Provincial Russian men especially are super fugly, in some ways manliness is defined by how opposite you are to the 'fairer/weaker sex' - ergo, if women in Russian society have to be well-groomed, shaved and feminine, men have to be the opposite of that.
Plus, I can't ignore the fact that Russian men especially (although all men do this, just not to the same degree) love to squeeze emotional/domestic/intellectual labor from Russian women. It's basically from birth - in school it's a given that a girl usually gives her completed homework/notes to a boy who has been doing nothing in class that same day (and the slackers who do this chronically are boys in this case). The division of domestic labor is brutally un-egalitarian, with the mother doing all of the housework while raising children and holding a steady job, with the men doing - you guessed it - absolutely nothing once he comes home.
Plus the beauty standards that russian women are held to, plus the demographic division that makes men think they're rare-as-fuck-hot-shit (there are 86 men to 100 women) and feel like a resource, etc. I'll stop here because someone else pointed this out on lc on /m/

poverty is relative. take whatever wealth you think is appropriate to have a kid with, maybe it's how much money you think you'll have when you're 30.

I like to go to forest preserves and draw/read outdoors as a nice change of pace, or hike. Museums are also fun. If you want to make a vacation out of it it can be nice to stay in a hotel or an airbnb and explore stores and restaurants plus local nature by yourself, I really enjoy it.

You don’t have to leave town or even your house, you can just take the time to chill. But PTO is PTO, and if you ever get laid off without using it all that money will just evaporate, so you should put something in the works ASAP.

Ok anon. Trannyfags twist shit left and right.
The author was and still is getting harassed by people all over social media (they are stalking the shit out of her) for more than two years now. During Tumblr times they would literally create a blog where people would post fanarts of her IRL getting raped by men (she's a lesbian), gore and more than that. People still draw gruesome stuff with her, a real person. They would tell her to kill herself all over Instagram, call her ugly (when she's stunning), everywhere; on twitter and where else they could find her.

She felt extremely suicidal for a long time, but she never commited suicide. In the end trannyfags from her country called cops on her to beat her up for being gay, that's the only thing that actually happened. They would do their best to doxx her; all for just being a radfem and not liking trannies.

However, you can't thankfully find her socials anymore, because she blended into a completely different social media where she only draws Naruto fanart. Last time her original accounts were active she fixed her mental health, started thinking positively and stopped caring about all the harassment.

I'm not generous with money or gifts or even some small social niceties like "oh can I offer you tea or coffee" I often don't care enough to give back or offer anything. Bad as that sounds.

I don't know if it's a narc thing but I think I look out for number one and there's also a sense of 'being owed that kindness after what I've been through' Which I get is messed up. The people who hurt me and the people being nice to me now are different groups. This new group doesn't owe me shit.

You check your body: measuring your body parts (like the waist and thighs), taking pictures to see how it looks in different angles, clothes and at different times of the day, weighing yourself multiple times, etc. It can be done to see your progress on a fitness jorney (pic rel) but it's a known thing for people with body dysmorphia and disordered eating habits.

yes it is. that millionaire thinks you are incapable of taking proper care of your kids, because you're not feeding them all organic whole foods that you bought that same day so they won't have any aflatoxins in them. from their perspective, the supply chain to the grocery store is too slow in your neighborhood to get fresh and healthy food delivered, there's probably aflatoxins on the shelf in there. i guess you have no choice but to employ a servant to get your food directly from the farm like that millionaire does. and if you can't afford a private school your kid won't be getting the education they require so you are also an irresponsible parent because of that

not saying the millionaires are right but to them you are exactly as incapable of raising your kids as the people below the poverty line. meanwhile the poeple below the poverty line can buy better food for their kids than what people have fed their kids for 99.999% of human history. the only difference is that their kids might have to get more of their protein from legumes. infant mortality is also a thing of the past, etc., etc.

i'm not saying it's right or wrong to bring kids into the world but that's a highly personal question that each prospective mother can only answer for herself.

The thing is that my grandmother never truly asked too many questions about it and just knew that the guys from that branch in my country weren’t bad people, so it was okay.

That's the funny thing, I was pretty close with my grandfather and he always loved telling us stories about his life. He seemed to genuinely love my grandmother and never put any pressure on me or my sisters to be any certain way. He seemed to respect women yet was in this secret men's-only group. I don't see why he wouldn't ever talk about it with me before he died if it was something that meant a lot to him and if it was as innocent as they claim it is online. Yet he wouldn't spill one single bean. Surely some moid out there has? Surely people leave these groups and talk about them to people? And I don't get why my mom wouldn't say anything about her experience with them, since she couldn't actually be a mason anyway so what difference does it make? If she's trolling me she's doing a great job. I don't stand to gain anything by knowing about it but idk if it's a part of my family history I just kind of want to know about what they believed and practiced even if it was something bad?

I spent a few hours in Toronto (we went on one of those bus tours) and obviously a few hours is not enough to have a proper feel for the city, but based on my short stay, it felt really cold and uninviting?? as opposed to Montreal. Architecture is typical North-American, the kind you see on TV

I just wash my feet at the first oppourtunity! sometimes even with the sandals on. I once used a hose in a garden to do this lol. your feet and sandles dry quick in the heat. but I do wear simple foam type sandals with cotton straps so water won't damage them. another tip I've learned is to wear sandals with a platform, that can help prevent your feet getting nasty since they're further from the ground. I like the teva platform sandals, they're the ones I wear and I can walk in the woods without kicking up too many little stones and the like into my sandal.

I guess you're always going to get your feet dirty to some degree in sandals but I personally would rather have cooler feet. it's a decent trade off imo!

How do people sleep with moisturised legs? I want to take better care of the skin on my legs but any time I put any product on them whatsoever, even first thing in the morning, I have trouble getting to sleep that night because my legs feel too sticky. If I moisturise before I go to bed I’ll lay awake for hours before I’m forced to get up and scrub it off because I can’t stand it anymore. It happens even when I just use a moisturising body wash and no lotion afterwards. Even dry-touch sunscreen applied in the morning will keep me awake if I forget to wash it off.
I have this issue with the rest of my body too, but my legs are the worst because I sleep on my side and can’t stop them from touching each other. So far the only solution seems to be wearing full length pyjama bottoms, but it’s getting too hot for that.

You're not wrong, it leaves that impression on a lot of visitors. That cold and uninviting aspect of Toronto stems from the fact that it's a finance-driven city. It's the second largest financial centre in North America, the cost of living is absurdly unaffordable and the police presence is quite high, all of these conditions make it a lot harder for minority communities to flourish. The corporatism, imperious skyline and neo-modern architectural style that characterizes the downtown core is dismal and uninspiring. But if you travel a bit north, east or west of the core and there are glimmers of beauty and culture everywhere. More 19th century and postmodernist architecture (it's a fairly young city after all). There are some underground artist communities that make cool things happen. A warmer social atmosphere too. The best thing about Toronto and the thing that makes it special is the multiculturalism though, it's the most diverse city in the world. Spend some time in a local neighbourhood like Little Italy or Koreatown and you'll notice it right away. It adds a richness and soulfulness that lamentably is getting pushed out by corporate development.

Montréal is a lot more affordable by contrast, it has the perfect conditions for cultures to take root and mature and allows people to be a bit more easy going. The underlying French influence definitely contributes to this joie de vivre feel, whereas Toronto has been built on a foundation of anglocentric liberal conservatism. Anyways, those are just my thoughts as a Torontréalaise.

I found and dated a fellow boring bitch who was 100% my type but we only dated because we had mutual friends/I knew of her for years before finally approaching her directly. I'm sad because I will probably never find another qt butch boring bitch gf ever again. I don't even know where to find other boring chill people. Clubs? No thanks, they make me uncomfortable. Online spaces? I'm very quiet online outside of my private accounts and anon spaces. Dating apps? Same issue. I figure the type of person I'd like to date is probably the same way so there's basically minimal chance of ever happening across each other. Just gonna have to pray and hope I will happen across someone through mutual friends or something.

BPD chan Jodie was madly in love with good Mormon boy. He broke up with her because she wasn't "marriage material" or some shit and she decided to move close to him and regularly knock on his door. He didn't turn her away because hes a scrote and liked the sex plus she was willing to fulfill his fetishes. This goes on for a long time with Jodie believing she'll get a wedding ring one day. Eventually he is about to leave on a trip but was planning on taking a different woman (who turned out to not be interested anyway). Jodie meets with him because scrotes gonna scrote and they fuck one last time. Jodie confronts him while he's showering and takes pics of him while doing so. Proceeds to get all stabby. Badly covers up her tracks and blabbers too much during interrogation and constantly changes her story.

I'm actually watching the trial tapes right now. travis used Jodi for sex while shit talking her behind her back, but stringing her along while trying to find a Good Mormon Wife. In their phone calls she is constantly trying to gain his affection and approval and he immediately switches the subject to sex. my understanding of the actual murder is that she just snapped when he led her to believe he was taking her on a trip the day after her birthday but ended up taking another mormon woman instead. so she stabbed him and shot him in the face. one of the arguments the defense makes is that he had pedophilic pornsick tendencies and was sexually abusive to Jodi. seems justified imo kek

nta and late reply but the phrase you wanna google is "wake initiated lucid dreaming" or WILD. It takes a lot of practice and willpower though, you need to train yourself to keep your conscious mind alert while your body enters sleep mode. It can be uncomfortable and scary though because your mind will be awake to feel your body enter sleep paralysis.

Lucid dreaming in general is still beneficial for nightmares though even if you can't do the WILD technique. Keeping a dream journal and practicing reality checks can help you recognize when you're in a nightmare and change the dream/wake yourself up.

Possibly both, but everyone has to start somewhere. You aren't any closer to a higher wage, more comfortable job. Take it the job, get the experience you need (even if it's just on paper), then move on to the next job. Forcibly steer yourself in the direction you want to go, and by that I mean eventually applying to jobs that are going to get you where you want to be by hamming up all the transferable skills you'll have hopefully learned. You'll be stuck a wagie if you only take low wage jobs, but eventually you should be looking for more.

Before >>830828 tries to reply in the same way, yes I do believe in that "if I can do it, then you can too" bullshit. I worked in shitty retail that drained me mentally and physically before I left for a temp basic bitch office job that paid ass and had no benefits. Left that for another office job, and got invited back to the first place because I hammed up all the desirable parts of my personality to everyone so they were excited to take me back for a permanent, non-customer service position with benefits (pay sucks but it's actually in my field and I don't plan on staying for more than a few years anyway).

Then, when you guys get closer to each other, slightly pout your lips, kiss the person and move your lips over theirs in very small movements (closing your lips, pouting again). You can follow what the person is doing to your lips as well. If you start the french kiss, slightly open your lips and push your tongue just a little bit to enter their mouth (they have to open their lips as well and viceversa) and then you gently touch each other tongues and lips. Close your eyes obviously and don't be stiff, let them touch your body and you do the same. You can grab them by their shoulders, neck, embrace them, etc
There are probably a lot of videos and articles with better tips on how to kiss~ check them out

telling him you're nervous could help though. you'll break the ice and he'll be flattered that you're nervous to see /him/. if you tend to be aloof when nervous it could also help him read you better.

It's only been seen as the "the only option" since the 1990's when the eastern bloc officially collapsed and people thought that all of those countries were going to be reestablished as liberal democracies. In the west we have the impression that there's no alternative because it's what we've been told for several decades. The older generations were subjected to cold war propaganda, our generation has been told that we can achieve upward social mobility if we just work for it, and after we should the burden of reoccurring financial crises, austerity measures and 30 years of wage stagnation people just dig their heels in and basically say that the problem will fix itself. As people realize that the problem isn't going to fix itself they're going to push back on the established order of things.

women are lied too and told the more sex they have the hotter they are, especially if that sex is "scandalous" (aka fucking other womens husbands, teachers, etc) because then you look like "a lady in the streets and a freak in the sheets" which seems to be misunderstood but valued by people who misunderstand it

you also have lib fems praising women for sleeping around and then regular men just praising women for being party sluts, so women just cling onto whatever man fucks them becauses mens preferences change so much and they treat women like toys so you feel lucky in the moment that they want to fuck you if they dont decide the next week that they like asian, white, black, fat, skinny, etc whatever "type" that you are not.
As for being bad at sex, most women are manipulated and groomed from a young age that the best possible sex to have if what they show in porn, so like 4 seconds of foreplay and 30 minutes of dry fucking and then they get considered good at sex if they're able to enjoy the shit show

I’m on the edge of failing a class that I’m retaking and want to know if messaging the professor would be a bad idea if she said that there was no curve and late assignments allowed under any circumstance. I know everyone had it bad with Covid this past year but I have been struggling mentally and financially since an accident that I was in two months ago (physically I healed but it sucked). Now, the accident happened before summer semester but it was still hard. Basically there are a few homework assignments that I did badly on and I could get to a passing grade with them. I’ve never heard of her letting anyone do late work and she would. If it helps I always attended class and spoke to her once, this wasn’t me not showing up to do the work each day.

Rather than keeping some part in your native language, I’d pick something you’re already familiar with and watch it both subbed and dubbed in your target language. Even if you can’t pick up everything, it’ll help you follow the written word while hearing it spoken. Hopefully you’ll be able to relate words and phrases to the parts of the movie/show that you remember well too.

Totally could be but even if so, there's no way we will know. If it's a military project, it's most likely a very protected secret and known only to people involved in it, that will not just go on and share that with the public. In this case it's beneficial for them for people to consider these sighting as UFO encounters, so no reason to debunk, let everyone speculate.

As a zombie you are super slow and look fugly but you are immortal and can regenerate your rotting flesh by eating other people. You will also never get sick and don't have to go to the toilet anymore.
The vampires are the old school ones from Dracula - you have to drink human blood but you get cool powers like immortality, hypnosis and changing into bat form. You need to sleep in a coffin & are afraid of any kind of church, garlic and you can get killed by the sun, fire and wooden stakes in your heart. The werewolves are like the ones from Harry Potter but you don't get a potion/suppressant and you can get killed by silver bullets. As a werewolf you aren't dead but you are forced to change into a mindless rabid werewolf that is super strong and fast and you are forced to eat raw meat (esp human meat) all the time. When not in werewolf form still have to eat raw meat and puke if you eat anything else. When not in werewolf form you are about as fast as Usain Bolt and can lift a normal car.

No. 833304

Am I what people call a bad friend? I feel like now it's happened many times where a close friend will come to me about how upset they are about something and after hearing their story I'll feel like they were in the wrong. I will try to extend them empathy while also asserting that I feel they did something wrong or hurtful but then it just turns into them being even more angry. I would feel guilty if I always blindly sided with them, but Im realizing maybe that's what friends are supposed to do?

I guess I just feel like friendship is more meaningful when both parties can tell each other when they've done wrong. But now it's been a few times where all I've done is hurt someone while theyre already upset over something and I dont know if sticking to my morals is worth it. Maybe I'm being a nerd by saying 'well, actually' every time a friend tells me about how someone was justifiably a dick to them

No, you're in the right. If you feel like someone did something wrong tell them exactly how you feel. It can sting when someone close to you thinks you're wrong and you confided in them, but it's important for their development as a human to reflect on that.

You may lose the occasional friendship over it, but I've learned those people who throw a fit are developmentally stunted and think friends exist to be yes-men and to reflect all their own opinions back onto them.

I feel like your timing might be off, otherwise they wouldn't always get angry. Like other anon says, this is what real, good friends are for, to guide us when we're wrong, but there's time and place for everything. If someone is heavily upset, just console them, and wait with actually seriously discussing the topic for maybe later time. I imagine even if they'd know they're in the wrong, being lectured while they're in the middle of freaking out would feel really awful and could make a person want to lash out.

Pinterest used to be great but there are loads of advertisements, Facebook mom posts and tiktok spam now that makes it harder to search. To get a good experience out of it you have to follow similar boards and really tune your home feed. It will give you recommendations based on literally anything you click on. For example, if you click on any illustration that happens to be fan art, you will be spammed with ugly fan art and shit memes, if you click on any recipe labelled as healthy, you will be spammed with shitty workout infographics. Tuning your feed involves regularly going into your home settings to turn off suggestions for things you don't like or that are giving you results you don't like, and it becomes a pretty annoying task to clean up after yourself when you've been searching for a specific thing and have to wade through a bunch of other posts to find what you were looking for. All of that having been said, I still use Pinterest to create inspiration boards for whatever creative project I am working on at the time. It feels more like work than fun when you first start creating the board but when you start to fill it up and take the time to tune your feed regularly it can be nice and useful.

Does anyone have advice on how to throw a successful small-ish party for ~10 people?
I'm having one next weekend and I'm worried it will be super awkward. It's various friends, some of whom know each other but others are from different groups. I'm planning to buy plenty of liquor and food, should I plan for games or something? I don't want it to be boring af and end up like picrel but I don't want some like, rigidly structured thing. I know it will probably be awkward when people first start to get there and no one's had anything to drink yet though…

I've been dealing with a lot of anger lately and guided meditation has helped. I end up getting distracted sometimes when I meditate without any audio and while it can still happen with recordings I find it's easier to refocus. The anger manifests even as physical tension and stress for me and I can actually feel it leaving my body as I do this one (only about 9 min): https://open.spotify.com/episode/6zYUNLlikiSSsi0BUXb90M

I think Spotify can open in a browser but sorry if not. There are a lot of free meditations if you search on Youtube as well. When it comes to mindfulness, I try to just be aware of when I'm feeling angry and acknowledge it then let go. Like noting "I'm feeling anger right now" (separate from me as a person rather than thinking "I am angry") and then realize it's not helping me in that moment and consciously think about something nicer.

She firmly believes that I need gazillion therapy sessions to get better (preferably twice a week, so double the money for her) which may be true… but she's the kind of therapist that lets you talk and sometimes asks questions. When I ask to set up achievable goals, she tells me that I need to talk more about my childhood and that there are no shortcuts (what about CBT/DBT exercises?). I do not feel I'm learning anything new about myself, or being taught how to cope. At the same time, I'm worried that I'm making a mistake by wrongly judging the situation. Has any of you been in such a situation? Not being able to cut off relationships that aren't working for me is a huge issue for me, so this whole situation sucks…

I went to a therapy place before where I wasn't paying for it, it was a charity service that offered 12 sessions to anyone who had attempted suicide and needed support right afterwards. In 12 sessions they did shit for me that other (out of my pocket) services never did. I don't know how to feel about that but it created a scepticism in me for sure. They were under time constraints and they got to the point which I'll forever be grateful for.

It's disheartening to not know whether you're just an easy paycheck or when the progress will start to come, if ever.

Are they like a proper certifies therapist? My family member set me up with a therapist and she was more of a holistic healer. Sometimes she'd let me talk then ask a few questions. She never set goals with me to achieve or work towards really except how to ground myself which was good advice for certain things but didn't address the root of anything. I lasted about a year with her before I ghosted her because she just kept making me relive trauma and not discuss next steps just give me a massage if I got too upset lol. And I know this won't be similar for others but she was completely unprofessional. After I ghosted her she started talking about my issues with a mutual friend of hers who ended up being the ex gf of a man I was seeing. The ex gf is also a holistic healer she got her reiki certificate through my therapist lol and started talking shit about my trauma to my bf at the time and anyone that would listen. He showed me his dms from her and she was calling me difficult and dangerous and all sorts of absurd shit. I went to therapy to fix a specific family relationship and it ended up not helping that issue whatsoever and then I had the fall out of my trauma becoming public knowledge and gossip fodder. I don't think I'd ever trust a therapist again.

I'm heavily tatted but in places that rarely are exposed, I don't own make up and I have about an inch of hair. My tatts are about the most time I've ever spent of changing my appearance in any way. But I swear that any time someone online hears that I've a fair few tattoos they get this image of me in their head. Men in particular have some stereotype in mind like this woman or a handful of heavily tatted porn stars they know of.

They assume all this other shit automatically comes in tow with tattoos but I've seen it go either way. Some are tatted but natural looking in nearly every other sense.. meanwhile others are bordering on it being an alternative version of bimbofication. I mean they're free to do what they want with their own appearance but I hate this association where men think tattoos equals this.

I wouldn't say you're misjudging this, it's your life and if you feel that you're not gaining anything from being her patient, you should absolutely find a new therapist. I know it's a lot easier said than done, but you deserve a doctor that's right for you and will help you progress instead of stagnate, especially if you're paying out of pocket for this. But even if it's covered by insurance or whatever, why waste your time?
Good luck anon, I hope you can find something right for you, whatever the solution may be.

Wow, that's both saddening and uplifting to hear. I'm sorry you've been in a situation to need that help, but so glad that it improved your mental well-being. Just curious, did they teach you any specific skills, i.e. how to deal with life in general, how to handle possible future suicial ideations?
>>833973
>Are they like a proper certified therapist?
Yes, I forgot to mention. She's studied psychology and is undergoing clinical supervision. Holy shit, it must have been horrible to deal with that 'therapist'. Literal nightmare fuel. Reiki may be a fun thing to practice for yourself and maybe with like-minded friends, but it's a bogus pseudoscience. It should be forbidden to take money from people for reiki 'treatments' (yeah, I realize it would be hard to set up a law that would end this, but a girl can dream).

She's a second one. The first one was a nightmare who made me look down on CBT even more than I already did (I'm kinda willing to give it a second chance now, though I'm not set on going with that method).
>Lmfao that's like saying you should set your oven to 1200 degrees so your cake can bake faster. Recovery isn't something you can speedrun, it takes time and patience. Huge red flag coming from a doctor you're paying out of pocket.
Her justification is that one session per week is not enough since we barely manage to talk about what happened in my life recently and that there's not enough time to touch on trauma. She also has been mentioning that recovery needs time when I asked her why I'm not seeing any results yet (ok, maybe she helped me with one issue from the whole grocery list, but it's nowhere near solved). Just clarifying. I don't expect my head to be fixed in a month or even a year, but it concerns me how this whole process feels completely aimless. I've been reading a subreddit where traumatised people share their experiences with therapy and I'm surprised how much they are getting out of it. I've asked a few times here a question like 'how do you know that therapy is working?' and farmers replied that when you apply what you've learned to life. Well, I haven't learned shit during this year.

i straight up ask them (usually after sex) if they have any specific body parts, kinks, or fantasies they're into. chances are they'll be too shy/embarrassed to say, so you might have to butter them up first by talking a bit about your own experiences and kinks. you can start vague/tame to test the waters, and go from there based off their reaction. i've found that the more you seem non-judgemental and open up about your own kinks, the more your partner will feel comfortable sharing. even if you never actually do kinky stuff with them, it's fun to bond over sharing those kinds of secrets.

Why do I keep dreaming about a group of people I haven’t seen in over 5 years? We didn’t leave on bad terms. I wouldn’t go out of my way to see them, I don’t even think I’d enjoy it. I don’t know anything about them and haven’t been updated on their lives either. But at least once a year I dream about them. In the first 3 years I must have had around 20-30 collective memorable dreams about them.

Is it normal for people to completely disappear like before social media existed, where if you lost contact with someone they were completely out of reach forever? Is it still possible? I have an opportunity to emigrate for work and want to start over.

I have a friend who is very into judgement-free things and not stereotyping things. But this friend knows I dislike trannies with a fiery passion, and she thinks that's annoying and mean from my part. I mean, she's not a woketard, but she really thinks everyone should be treated with kindness, respect, and to not stereotype things and to treat things on a case-by-case basis. Even though I told her how the tranny agenda is harmful she thinks some people can't help being trans, which is like… ok I kinda get it but it's fucked up. I don't want to keep discussing these things with her, she's very non comfrontational and preffers being at her own peace, a quality I actually really like in her.

I've been contemplating if I'm actually in the wrong by hatting all trannies. I mean, I do. I do dislike them, and I dislike everything they're doing to kids, to vulnerable women, and to homosexuals and bisexuals. I also think not all trannies are necessarily bad people and I don't blame them for transitioning in a world where this shit is pushed so hard onto them. But like. Idk what to do.

What should I do? Just hide the fact I hate trannies? Come at her and tell her I'm a reformed tranny hater now (eugh I could never)? Or seriously try to work with a judgement-free kind of mindset?

I just can't be judgement-free honestly, even if I try to be the nicest and kindest. My intuition is just very good about certain kinds of people. I hope she doesn't dislike that about me either. Idk. Thoughts? Give me advice nonnas please

This is going to be a long and very autistic answer, but… I have two tranny friends that i keep in touch with because they're part of a social group I'm in, I'm not 'out' to the group as GC yet, and I don't think i ever plan on telling them. Why? Because even though whenever they say some braindead shit about gender id (which comes up rarely, i should say), I don't say anything. Because I'm a pussy. Now, in a hypothetical situation where I am not a pussy, when they would have told me they were trooning out I would ask them what is really driving them to transition and ask them to examine exactly why they feel they're trans, all while stressing that i care about them. But I didn't because I was afraid of losing them as friends, because I just knew they wouldn't listen to me and outcast me as an evil terf with harmful ideas. They're still decent people though, except for the other mtf, who wasn't, but our friends group excommunicated him just because he's a shitty person. Good people who don't handle bullshit well tend to find even stuff trannies do to achieve 'gender euphoria' reprehensible enough.
I guess what im trying to say here is it's hard to draw a clear line between a person and the ideas they use to define their identity, since a lot of people like to tie their ID to whatever makes them 'priveleged/opressed' nowadays. But I don't think you should hate all trannies as people (especially ftms, and you know why), but you should state your opinion on what you think is harmful about their ideology. Many troons will say that you're literally killing them by being hateful (which is… lmao) - just remind them that you just want them to reexamine, truly, what and why is gender. So to speak. If you're brave enough and you really care about this, you'll stick to it.
Some troons are good people, but the ideas about gender they have are harmful.

What are some things I could do to entertain myself during lockdown and without screens and buying a bunch of stuff? I don't know how to make my existing hobbies (that aren't just scrolling) screen-less. I currently want to try flower pressing because it seems relatively easy and doesn't involve screens, and I could try listening to music using Spotify (that uses a screen but I don't think it will fuck up my attention span), but I'm unsure what else.

>Drawing

I sometimes draw, but I can't exactly force myself to draw, so I just rely on random urges to draw I get, which I usually get when looking at art online, however, my drawing skills are pretty and I need to rely on references to be able to draw stuff. idk how to make this hobby screenless tbh

>baking

I've baked like 3 desserts/sweet things in the past 2 weeks. I like it, but I tend to follow recipes I've found on YT, like adam ragusea's. I could get a cookbook but I'm unsure what cookbook I should get. I could just quickly write the recipe down and not look at the video afterwards

If you hate mtf troons because they're degenerate predatory coomers, that's just normal male shit. You can separate your distaste for troons from the ideology that drives and protects these people, which is just misogyny in a new package. Focus your anger on the core of the problem, which is the misogyny and homophobia. That's where the real problems are. Otherwise it's just narcissists dressing up, and honestly if you're mad about that it's not worth it. You might as well be mad at kinnies for being stupid.
And yeah if you hate ftms too you really shouldn't, they might be obnoxious sometimes on the Internet but they're victims of a wildly fucked up anti-female homophobic cult.

Most women here started as supporters. It's just that you start seeing too much bullshit and eventually you realise that most are just very mentally ill people being coddled and enabled by (some) part of society. This is usually called "peak trans", google it and you will see some of the experiences that made people turn agains trans people, usually trans males (males that identify as women). Stuff like demanding that lesbians accept their dicks, being in positions of power as "women" (when most got it as when they were identifying as men), trying to sugarcoat their fetishes by saying they are women and invading female-only spaces, insulting regular women, etc, etc.

The most effective strategy ime is to limit your reaction to whatever they say or do, as in limiting the expressiveness in your face and communicating in a non-committal or uninteresting way when you have to engage in a bit of back and forth. I think maintaining an appearance of neutrality gives you the upper hand because it shows that you're in control of your emotions, and men often want to get a rise out of women because they think we're overly emotional or whatever.

They’re athletic knee pads. In volleyball a lot of the time you will be racing to prevent the ball from hitting the floor essentially, so you end up hitting your legs, especially your knees against the ground a lot as you dive. The knee pads protect against that impact with a cushion. They do sort of limit movement but in a beneficial way where you don’t overextend your leg and injure it during a game, otherwise they’re pretty flexible.

Ha, I didn't think I'd see Miss Blingin' on here. Love her covers. The styling of the song itself has been made more choral which helps, but generally folksy medieval songs have an airy, ethereal, lightly embellished sound with some rhythmic variety. Think Enya, and in fact that sort of Gaelic styling typically sounds like it would fit. Check out sean nós for some more technical aspects of that sort of singing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean-nós_song

Nah, I fucking hate particles. An old tutor of mine recommended me this dictionary. I bought it but haven't really used it. When I first learned Japanese, I had a private tutor and was very young, but my tutor wasn't a language teacher so he did not say a single word about particles which probably really hindered my learning because I kept dropping them and not understanding why I needed them. In the genki textbooks I used in college they usually put the particle most used with the verb so I just took to memorizing the particles but I still have a hard time with them if I'm really thinking of some shit to say on the fly.

For me, a lot of it just became "it is what it is." Like when I would ask my Japanese friends about wa/ga when they said a certain thing they'd just sort of shrug like "it's just wa/ga" at that moment. Yeah it'd be really great to know why I'm using a certain particle for a certain verb/situation but I'm not good with linguistics and even an explanation sometimes does me worse than just telling me "just use this particle for xyz." Sorry I'm no help lmao I just really fucking hate particles too. When I spoke with friends I got way too comfortable speaking casually and always dropping my particles because I was lazy and didn't want to deal with thinking about what particle was appropriate in the situation.

Try using several different learning resources at once, especially if you can find ones written by linguists. There may be one that explains it better for you than what you're using now. There are some books specifically about particles as well. Most native speakers will have trouble explaining exactly when and why each particle is used. Kind of like in English, it can be hard to explain why we use certain words and not others, because "that's just how it is," but there actually are formulas that we use and just don't really have to think about it. However, linguists do have to think about those things so they can be a little better at explaining. I also recommend that besides reading about it, you should do a lot of practice exercises using particles, so get any accompanying workbooks of any books that you find so you can practice and then look up the right answers. Trying to come up with a simple rule for using particles will give you a hard time, but the more you practice using it, hearing it, reading it, and writing it the more natural it will become.

Is it normal to feel afraid of someone giving me oral? Whenever someone offers it to me I'm like "ewgh no I'm not into it" and they're like "but why" and I'm like "I feel uncomfortable" but then they get so disappointed like they say shit like "oh but then how am I gonna pleasure you if you don't let me lick your pussy" and I'm like, I don't know??? why do you wanna lick it??? it feels dirty and I'm afraid of the smell because I sweat a lot all the time.

Any advice or help?? am I weird for not liking it? every other song talks about how good it is and I just don't know, the only oral sex I've ever had was ehhheuuugh and then people say shit like "oh but maybe no one has given you good oral, I'll be the one to give you pleasure uwu" but I'm like ugh what if I don't want to??????

It could be that you gain weight in your visceral fat more, which is under the muscle of your stomach and around your organs. Everyone gains weight differently but it's easier to see it in men. I have two gym buddies with the same body fat percentage, but totally different bodies: one guy has prominent shredded abs but a wide waist, and his belly is hard, because he's chubby on the inside. The other never ever has abs or looks defined, even when he's fighting fit 12% bf, he has a small jiggly belly because he keeps all his fat on the outside.
If that's the case, that's something to be careful of, because excess visceral fat is strongly correlated with all the same diseases as obesity but you can still look 'thin'.

Normal plastic pads (even the biodegradable ones) reek after a few hours and cause swamp crotch, I just don't get that with reusables.
If there is a smell, you'd have to shove your nose in it to smell it, when I was using normal pads they would absolutely reek as soon as I pulled down my undies to pee.

Yes, mindfulness practices and meditation apparently work, but it takes time. You need to be constant and be active about it.
I'm not taking too seriously at the moment, but I like to do my daily activities (washing the dishes, eating, talking to someone) while trying to have my five senses awake as possible, so I can feel, instead of being constantly thinking, and I stop being distracted.
The easiest first step would be not consuming any type of media while doing something (music, a tv show, youtube, etc) but here's a better explanation:

these people are unhinged. I like both. I've never even seen yumejos go after fujos the way that these fujos love insulting women who like other things. maybe they are overly defensive because of all the anti-fujo discourse but no need to take it out like this. I don't understand what's so homophobic about liking a pairing with a woman in it especially because you are a woman…

No. 836924

>>836922
doublepost I mean the anti-fujo stuff usually comes from fujos-in-denial aka fakebois and "bl fans", and general derision from male fans. so maybe that's why? but these kinds of posts only reinforce the idea that fujos have internalized misogyny. I don't think they all do (I am one too) but why get so angry about women liking pairings involving women? anyway none of it should be that deep in the first place.

the lack of self awareness in that thread is astounding kek if only i got a penny for every fit fujos threw

i think the agressivness of extreme fujos comes from having both superiority and inferiority complex at the same time. They think they are better than yumes sbecause they ship existing characters instead of making ocs/self inserts while also feeling lesser because generally, while yumes are also looked down on, i would say it's more okay to be a yume than fujo.

>a huge discomfort with female sexuality, to the point of not being able to handle seeing women in relationship with men or other women.
I tend to think this is it, not to judge them but because I used to feel that way as well when I was solely a fujo and couldn't handle female characters in my main ships. Really I try to give them the benefit of the doubt but sometimes I wonder about this. They get disgusted so easily by a female character being portrayed in a romantic or sexual light— now a big part of me says who can blame them, and I know that's what they'd say because of how most media and fans treats female character portrayals. But I think these people go too far and therefore get a kneejerk reaction every time they see it, and the result is they can't stand any attention on female sexuality whatsoever unless it's a watered down side character lesbian relationship that they don't really invest in. Of course this is generalizing but I'm going off of what I mostly see from this type of fujo and, yes, from my past self.
I don't know what changed for me but I guess I wanted to stop feeling so uncomfortable with my own sexuality and womanhood, like why should I let men take everything from me and I was just sick of being like that because it was a form of misogyny imo. Anyway enough about my experience, but that's why I can feel suspicious when fujos are so aggressively against including women's sexuality. Like, yes, it's warped by men in media and it's everywhere that we get objectified and mistreated, but (at risk of sounding like a libfem) we should take that back. I got sick of being uncomfortable with myself and fixating solely on male characters.
(but fujos who are happy being fujos and comfortable as they are are based and I still enjoy that content anyway, not everyone has to like the other stuff. my problem is that they get so aggressively opposed to something harmless that it's odd of them.)

I used to be a fujo and I can somewhat agree with this. But it was more hating anything in it with dominant man/submissive woman because it just reminds me of scrote shit. If both parties are shown as equal, or if the woman is in control, I like it. I'm just tired of seeing woman objectified and treated like shit, and BL is one of the few genres where you don't have to see that. In theory, at least, because sometimes BL can recreate those same dynamics with 2 men (ie. making the small, dainty guy the one who's objectified/used, I hate this trash)

I've never applied online for a credit card before and I can't find the answer to my question on google. I feel so dumb asking this here. Anyway, when you apply for a credit card and get pre-approved, do you need to send in a copy of your ID or driver's license to get the card? For some reason I was thinking you needed to send a photo of your ID and a photo of your social security card but I'm kind of a flake and have an ID that isn't for my current address. Anyone know what the deal is? I feel like a woman-child, this is why I'm not asking anyone I know irl. (I'm in the U.S. if that matters.)

Do you guys think girls will ever want to be skinny again? I remember in middle school the stick figure-like Victoria's Secret models were the standard and all I wanted to look like was pre-dyke Cara Delevigne. It seemed like most female celebrities were thin and all the thin girls I knew were envied by all the girls who weren’t and always had tons of boyfriends. Maybe it seemed a lot more perfect to me because I was because I was overweight at the time with a double chin and everything due to eating too much while I was pubin’ out which turned into an eating addiction. So I felt very isolated regarding weight related things but skinny was definitely in. It took me a really long time, lots of phases of losing a bunch of weight only to gain it all back, but now I’m turning 20 and I’m finally where I want to be. I feel really good about myself for fitting this outdated ass standard I idealized in the mid 2010s but now it’s like everyone wants to be a thicc Instagram baddie and more often than not female celebrities are on the chunkier side. I know female body standards in society shift a lot with time but with all this “every body is beautiful shit” being pushed in mainstream media I don’t know if thin will ever make a comeback and I want my damn attention! I went through all that trouble cause I thought it was gonna be MY turn and now I’m really fucking pissed

The 2000s body standard was always ugly to me and obviously based on a misogynistic standard to keep women weak and starving, delusional about removing their feminine shape to be as sexier (while coincidentally also coming off as infantile). The thin body standard in the 70s and 80s was more realistic, sexier, and fitter. Also people in the 70s and 80s had snatched waists and narrow figures while being thin something I noticed a lot about 2000s skinny people is that they just look like boxes with no shape like long amphibians it's hideous

My take is that the "y-you just hate women because you don't like straight/yuri porn" people are insecure about their tastes and think that a fujo preferring BL and disliking porn where a woman is objectified is supposed to be taken as a personal offense which is why they throw these "the fujos on this site are insane" strawmen in the ring. If I say that your oviposition womb prolapse lesbian loli porn might be to your liking due to you hanging around moid coomers all the time it's not an attack against female sexuality but scrotes and their fucked up preferences they imposed on people around them. And when it comes to more vanilla material no fujo seriously says that a woman is inferior for liking straight porn, that's all projection and hyperbolically maybe some form of a guilty conscience for basing one's sexuality on being appealing to men. Latter being of course valid if you're a straight woman but that's just how it often feels like. I have nothing against yumejos but some anons are way too invested in what fujos think about them that it's almost comedic, it's extremely funny to tease them.

Well I didn't really expect much but…
>disliking porn where a woman is objectified
Most of yumejo famers do.
>your oviposition womb prolapse lesbian loli porn
My what now?
>basing one's sexuality on being appealing to men
Ah yes. Having cartoon husbandos and liking yuri ships. It's all about appealing to the irl scrotes.

I wouldn't let it stop me, I'm just curious about who the creator intended it for. It's a nice, healing series.

Do males pick-me exist? i was wondering that the other day during my 24 hours sleepless round. I have never seen non-celebrity men try to pander to what girls like.

I think pickmes are the "softboy" wannabes who are luring you to get into a relationship that will be full of nothing but controlling abuse (they'd usually either bait women onto baiting out of pity or pick vulnerable woman). The kinds who would talk shit about your friends and be "sad" in public, eg "sad and lonely" discord or twitch status.

i never noticed werewolf kink to be popular among lesbians but i (lesbian) re-read twilight a few months ago and all the werewolves in there effectively lose their clothes when they transform. there is only one female werewolf so far (picrel) and for a few weeks i had the worst brain worms about her being my sexy werewolf wife and i was this close to writing a 50 chapters long self insert fic about my oc (me) moving to la push and her imprinting on me and becoming my loyal protective werewolf wife. maybe i'll just try and write lesbian werewolf erotica if my career doesn't play out.

i don't know any kek but it's mentioned enough times in online lesbian communities it makes me wonder, the dime-a-dozen lesbian werewolf novels only exacerbates my headscratching
