Heart of mine lyrics driver era
I've been offered in an incredible residency to work exclusively on my art for the better part of a year, but it would mean ending a long-term relationship. I don't know what I want.
2023.06.10 20:23 81420161 I've been offered in an incredible residency to work exclusively on my art for the better part of a year, but it would mean ending a long-term relationship. I don't know what I want.
Hi, I’m in my early 30s. I’ve been offered a creative/arts residency in a city that’s decently far from where I live now (about a 6-hour drive). My gut is torn over whether to accept it or not. The terms of the residency would be: -they will provide a room rent-free in a house share with two other artists in my field doing the same residency. the house is equipped with a studio with equipment and software for what we do, plus a gym, kitchen and co-working space. -in exchange, they would ask that I quit any work I’m doing that’s not directly related to the creative field (i.e. take a leap and start making money only creatively) -I would be allowed to leave the city but they’d ask that I keep it to a minimum. I didn’t ask what the limit for leaving is but I asked if I could take trips home every 3-4 weeks for a potential planned medical thing and they said no I'm hesitant to accept because: 1) I’m in a long-term relationship (over two years). It’s my first every LTR and I feel like my BF and I are compatible in so many ways. My BF has said in no uncertain terms he will end the relationship if I accept the residency as he doesn’t want to do long-distance for this period of time. (It’s most of a year.) 2) If I were sure this would be a great career move, it would be a hard but easy decision for me to leave my BF. I love him, but I wouldn’t want to date someone who was standing in the way of my career over a temporary situation where we could still see each other sometimes. However, I’m not sure, and I’m worried about what will happen if I basically implode my life for this opportunity (quit a job I’m happy in, leave a relationship I’m mostly happy in, and lose my housing in the city I’m currently living in) and then the residency program turns out to be BAD. My biggest fears:
1) I'm from the city I live in now and have never really lived anywhere else for an extended period of time. This feels like a relatively risk-free way to try living in a new place, and frankly I'm getting tired of how competitive and expensive my city is. I feel like everyone is jumping over each other to get opportunities. I'm a little tired of live performance and have been interested for a while in putting more emphasis on creating digital stuff / social media. A program like this that's in a more remote place with less going on so I have room to sit alone and write would be perfect for this
2) They're offering a room where I could be alone and undisturbed which is out of my reach in my city. Rent has skyrocketed the past few years. I can afford my rent now but BF and I are sharing a one-room apartment, we both work remote most of the time, and it is AWFUL. Yes I could get a co-working space or there's solutions like putting up barriers but I really just want to be able to roll out of bed and journal for an hour without anyone saying anything to me. I'm introverted and my social battery is constantly being drained in this living situation. Rent has gotten so bad that even if I left my BF's apartment, I'd have to pay an extra $500 a month just to have my own room in an apartment share on the absolute lowest end if I found a deal, but it would probably be closer to $700 to 800 more a month. I really want space to breathe.
I just did the math and with my typical current expenses minus rent and utilities, I'd be losing about $12,000 over the period without an income (I'm guesstimating that food & drink will be cheaper but that I'd be spending way more on gas than I currently do on public transportation). That same amount would net me about 7.5 months of Airbnb rental in a rural area I love where I'm comfortable driving. I almost would rather just make my own little "mini residency" where I rent a place one month out of the year and continue to work, but scale it back slightly. My BF isn't thrilled about me going away for an entire month, but he'd accept it.
TL:DR: I got offered a residency that would pay my rent in a smaller town but with some restrictions including quitting my job so I could focus 100% on art - but they wouldn't pay my other expenses. Also, if I take this opportunity my long term BF would break up with me rather than do long-distance, and I will definitely lose momentum that I've built up in the highly competitive city where I live now and have to shift my focus – which I'm interested in doing, but also feels scary! I'd appreciate any insight on how to make this decision.
I'm considering an alternative step of turning down this residency and instead renting a cabin for one month. This would cost me about $1,600. If I take the residency I would have to spend about $12,000 out of my savings unless I magically start making $1,000+ a month creatively, which is unlikely based on what I know about my field. It would be taking a huge gamble on myself to accept and I'm not sure that I'm ready.

- LONG-TERM CAREER RISK: I was adrift for a lot of my 20s and my job history is very patchy. I got the job I have now by knowing someone and it’s honestly the first job I’ve worked where I truly feel like the company culture “gets” me and cares more about me as an individual than blood sucking me dry for their own profit. I like the people and the vibe, and it feels like there’s room for growth. I don’t know if I could get a job like this again.
- SHORT-TERM FINANCIAL RISK: If the program doesn't want me to do "regular" work, then I'd be taking a huge risk in assuming that I can make enough creatively to pay my other expenses. The program wouldn't pay for anything other than housing - not food/car insurance/gas/etc. I have made some money doing things like creative coaching, paid feedback, etc but I've made more like in the low hundreds a month and my monthly expenses without rent would be at least $1,000. I have a lot in savings but this could potentially deplete at least 1/3 of my emergency fund. Based on what I know about career prospects in my industry, it's highly unlikely that I would make back enough money to replace my lost professional income. Most people in the industry never make a profit from it
- POSSIBLY WORSE OPPORTUNITIES: I’m currently in the #1 city in the country, probably the world, for live performance in my creative field. I’ve worked my way up for the past few years to the point where I have my own thing I’m producing on a regular basis that’s starting to get a small but sure following. I’m getting the opportunity to perform once a week at a place that may start paying me eventually, possibly even within the next year or two. My BF pointed out that if I leave to go be in a more remote place for such a long time period I’ll lose the momentum I’ve built up in this city and potentially be putting myself in a worse situation.
- RED FLAG ON THE PROGRAM?: My BF says that his friend, who's further up than us, says the specific person running this program has a bad reputation for taking advantage of young people and acting like more of an authority than he is, and that he's generally seen as a laughingstock. I have to admit that offering rent only, and not paying for other necessities like food, but requiring participants to quit their non-artistic work for the program feels a bit like a red flag to me though I can't quite put my finger on why
- DRIVING: I have a car but I'm not a confident driver. Where I live now there’s ample public transportation. If I took the residency, I would need to drive frequently. I’ve visited the city it's in before and there’s a bad combination of aggressive drivers and poorly designed/confusing highways.

I really want space to breathe.
My thought process
Right now, I'm leaning towards turning down the residency for all of the above reasons, but my heart is torn over it. I feel like if I had gotten this just a little bit earlier while I was still adrift it would have been perfect, but I might be more interested in it for the person I was then and how little I had going on, and now, I have too much that I'd be giving up if I accept.I just did the math and with my typical current expenses minus rent and utilities, I'd be losing about $12,000 over the period without an income (I'm guesstimating that food & drink will be cheaper but that I'd be spending way more on gas than I currently do on public transportation).

2023.06.10 20:17 donfriholito My uses for vimwiki have dried up... and it makes me a little sad
Here's a little story about how I got into vimwiki and how I'm thinking of wrapping mine up.
Vim changed my life. I remember when I really decided I was going to learn it I was afraid of being too unproductive because I jumped right into it. After about 2 weeks, I was sort of in the middle of it. I was still super slow at remembering the editing commands and I'd still sometimes cheat with the arrow keys. But I already was simply not able to use a normal text editor again. A few more weeks, and I was in love with vim ever since, and still am.
After getting used to vim for working with code, I wanted to use it for everything else. At the time I was using some basic note taking app for all my notes. I had 1 note for every different "thing" I was keeping track of, like shopping list or simple todo lists, project ideas, and even whole projects in a single note.
After a bit of research I found vimwiki, and fell in love with vim even more. It took a bit of time to convert over and organise all my notes but once I did it felt amazing. Suddenly they were all browsable, linked, and even had built in todo lists and it blew me away.
I started using vimwiki for everything. Daily journal, idea bin, scratchpad, managing entire projects, etc. Being a solo web developer it was just perfect for me. I even hooked up my wiki to an IRC bot that looked for undone todo items and bugged me about them. I made a Web interface for my whole wiki that directly parsed the vimwiki syntax so it was available anywhere. Vimwiki was my life and my second brain.
Some years passed where I was happily using vimwiki, but then my uses slowly started to change. The first big one was no longer writing any daily todo list or journal. I used to start the day writing my tasks for the day, writing the day's events, and then carrying over undone tasks to the following days. I was using it like a bullet journal. Until I just decided to stop that and live a more free life and go with the flow each day.
The next change was switching from manual deployment and managing of web services and config files, to using IaC and automation. Up until this point I wrote myself guides on deployment and other tips and tricks including config files etc for every deployed service or program I was using. It's what made up the bulk of my wiki. However I made the change to use Ansible and Docker to deploy my services with everything stored in git repos. Now, I no longer use my vimwiki to manage the deployment of those services. Anything related to those services deployment goes in a git issue, instead of a vimwiki todo. I no longer need copies of config files because Ansible generates them. I just read directly the code in those repos when I have any questions about the deployment, lije where it is, how to access it. I no longer turn to my vimwiki for those things either.
The third change, and probably the biggest, was switching jobs. I went from being a web developer managing multiple projects to being an indie game developer, managing only a single project. And for my first game project I used gitlab and gitlab's project wiki for outlining the information about the game, and gitlab's issues with an advanced form of project management based on traditional kanban where each task has multiple life cycle stages. I did attempt this first with vimwiki, but it just became convoluted and a micromanagement nightmare since the tasks are not just simple open and shut items anymore. Which was a shame, since vimwiki todos is something that heavily attracted me to it.
And here I am 1 year later and the only thing I use in my vimwiki for these days is a single page named Scratchpad which is just a temporary text bin/working space to write stuff down. Sometimes I search up some page I wrote in ages ago. But largely I no longer have a use for my vimwiki and while all the pages still exist their content is years out of date and no longer relevant.
Looking at those pages, definitely makes me remember all the time I spent on this wiki, and its a little sad that I'm no longer using it for my day to day.
To add a bit of discussion to this story others who found vimwiki are you still using it as a daily driver? And if not, what are you using instead?

2023.06.10 20:16 WithoutMyLemon Should I (33M) be fighting for this? Both my heart and mind says yes.
SUPER LONG READ WARNING
The past:
We met here, on Reddit, at the height of the pandemic. In May 2022, with COVID restrictions loosneing, I took a flight over the Atlantic to be with her (36F) to finally meet in person. Since then, we’ve met up on four more occasions - sometimes here in my country, sometimes back in hers - with the latest being last month (where I lucky enough to spend time with her on her birthday). Each visit, we had the absolute time of our lives.
As I imagine is the case in all LDRs, despite so, so many good times - online and in person - there were bad times too. In those bad times, I always felt that the vast majority of these times arose as a result of our previous relationships; we had both come out of long-term, unhealthy relationships at similar times and were both initiating divorce proceedings.
Mental abuse. Manipulation. Gaslighting. These were the kind of things that we both encountered from our now ex partners. These things had obviously left marks and even scars on both of us. But we were aware of this. We talked about this, frequently.
The nature of our relationship, predominantly taking place by text messages, but also countless audio and video calls, really helped us to focus on communication. What we didn’t have in physical contact, we made up for in talking openly and honestly, creating a safe space to talk about issues, thoughts and feelings. Good or bad. Positive or negative.
The romance was aplenty. We expressed our love for one another. Even during disagreements or misunderstandings, we made it clear that it didn’t change the love we had for one another. We talked about how much we missed each other when we had to spend time apart. How much we were desperate to be back together as soon as possible. We talked about the future, the ideas of what we wanted when we pulled the trigger on one of us making a permanent move to the other’s country.
Overall, things always looked so positive.
The present:
Until a week ago, I thought I knew what my future looked like. What our future looked like.
Only five days prior (Monday 29th May), I had returned home to the UK following our latest time together in person. Unfortunately, an incident occured towards the end of my trip when we were travelling together - after a long day of travel and exploring, I had begin to shut down, becoming quieter and more withdrawn.
This wasn’t new behaviour from me. I had done this before, from distance through text and audio calls, on numerous occasions. On this occasion, I put it down to a combination of tiredness and scars from my previous relationship - in the past, I often found myself holding back on expressing certain kind of feelings, as stupid as it looks on paper, as my ex-partner would often turn them around on me. “But why are you tired? You slept well. How on Earth could you be? What have you been doing to be that tired? Nothing.” I felt I had to have such a good justification to feel certain ways, especially relating to negative moods: feeling tired; melancholy; anxiety. Everything needed such a well thought out reason. Therefore I found it easier just to withhold this information. Just say “everything is fine” even when my tone or face said otherwise.
As touched upon earlier, me and my long distance partner had openly discussed how our past would make appearances throughout our relationship. When they did, we would work through them together. And we did just that. It may have taken time sometimes to open up, it may have been recurring itrational thoughts that caused a problem, but we got through things, made it clear we would support each other and confirmed our love remained strong.
I would never expect us to solve and conquer any given issues at the first time of trying, or that it would be easy, whichever of us were reliving their past - nonetheless, we did discuss this incident as the evening progressed. I expressed where I felt these feelings came from and apologised for my behaviour. I didn’t think this incident was simply dismissed, but given how we enjoyed the rest of the next and the remainder of this trip, given the way we discussed what happened with a positive conclusion, I felt we had dealt with the matter and moved on.
But as I said, this behaviour of mine had happened before - and it would happen again, once I returned home. Experiencing jet lag and missing my partner dearly, along with some additional factors I faced when arriving home, my mood declined in a similar way. I didn’t express myself to the woman I loved so much, preferring to put up a shield like I did in the past, not wanting her to worry. But when I finally convinced myself to try and address what was going on, my partner was left feeling unsure. More unsure than she ever had done before.
I wanted to give her time to collect her thoughts, thinking the same outcome was coming as it always had before. But I had rested way too long on my laurels. She came back a day later following contemplation time to say she wasn’t sure she wanted this anymore…
As somebody who has experiences issues of anxiety throughout my life, I was aware of how negative thoughts can spiral into irrationality. Clearer heads prevail. But as the days wore on, my confusion and worry grew as her uncertainty wasn’t already becoming clearer. It has never taken this long. With each passing day, the irrational thoughts appeared in my head. This is it. This is the end.
What about all those things we had said about our future over the years, only as long as a few days ago? There was never an inkling that things were on remotely shaky ground, because we always managed to talk and work things out. Nothing ever felt as if it was left unresolved.
I was caught so off guard. As we always had, I expressed these feelings to her. She wanted me to. But as I questioned whether this was really the end, questioned the truth of all those previous statements as a result of this sudden, new territory we were in , the answer came in the early hours of Thursday morning. “I think we shouldn’t continue with thi”.
Of course my issues were triggering, there’s absolutely no denying that and I fully take responsibility for my actions (and lack of). She explained that whilst she felt she had dealt with this behaviour of mine and moved forward, in reality, she realises she had been surpressing her feelings and how much my behaviour had been affected her.
But in telling me what she had benen wrestling with over those past few days, it felt to me that a number of these issues also stemmed from her previous relationship as well. In previous conversations, including those relating to this predicament, she would raise a number of worries: she thought I would find her a “boring buzzkill” because that’s what her ex would tell her; she was sometimes scared I’d get bored of her, like her ex did; she said that her ex would tell her she “always found a problem” in their relationship to complain about and thought I would eventually think the same; her ex would tell her she “ruined everything” and when an issue was once raised during a vacation, he blamed her for the bad mood and for “ruining the entire trip”.
My issues, the one that has arisen again, played a factor, but we were coming to the point where the next step was on the horizon. We had talked about me moving to be with her on a permanent basis, a move that seemed even more logical with my current employer potentially laying off employers in the near future. Even if that wasn’t the case, our next potential trip wouldn’t be possible until October at the earliest. The longest we’ve been apart since meeting up. Now seemed a better time than any to start looking into these plans.
We were both open about this future - and for years, expressed how we couldn’t wait until this day could finally come. We would never have the pain of being apart for long periods of time. One final countdown. Then we could crash, together, after work. Snuggle up close. Turn into couch potatoea together under a blanket. We could cook each other dinner. Cook each other breakfast. Head off to work together. We both really wanted this and expressed it regularly.
But she admitted that the sudden reality of this, now seemingly so close, further added to her mixed feelings. Understandable, I felt - what a big step this will be. But the worries of my behaviour occuring in person when we were together permanently was suddenly too strong to ignore. From what she explained, these kind of doubts formed the basis of her decision.
The future:
We talked. We cried. I didn’t want things to end but didn’t want to be unattractively desperate, grovelling for her to stay. We talked about all of the many great things we experienced together and the feelings we have for one another. She told me she loved me and continues to love me so much. She wants to give me time to heal, have closure… but in the days since that last interaction, I begin to think that I should have been more vocal. She told me that I am free to message her to clarify things, but had also said during our last call that we should probably take some weeks to heal.
I did give in and message her yesterday, just to check in and see how she was and to check whether she was still ok to ask/say some things, especially this soon. She told me she was struggling with not interacting with me in the same ways as usual - sending memes, telling me about her day - and had been thinking about me a lot but ultimately wanted to give me space. Even that gave me hope.
I agreed to put my thoughts together soon, knowing she had a busy weekend with a family wedding, but after so much soul searching over the past few days, replaying and re-reading everything, looking at pictures and videos of our times together, I still strongly feel we could get through this.
I should have acted on my issues sooner, I fully understand that. Especially now, of course. No excuse, but I want to believe that because we always got through these moments, tackled the issues in the moment and moved forward positively, that I became slack at improving myself. But I am determined to be a better person. Not just for her, but for myself too. This issue will affect any partner I would potentially ever have and I recognise how unhealthy, how frustrating it can be to deal with. I’ve booked counselling sessions, one of which I have already undertaken to make a start on addressing this problem.
But I don’t want somebody else to experience the positive changes I’m working on. I want it to be her.
I’m sure some of you have been in similar scenarios, but given my wall of text above, should I be fighting for this like my head and heart are shouting out for me to do? I feel there is so much good still here. So, so much that is worth saving. I fully appreciate the fact that this has all come from one partner’s perspective and I’m happy to try as best I can to elaborate further without giving too much personal/identifiable information away.
Also, thank you to everyone who took the time to read all of this

As touched upon earlier, me and my long distance partner had openly discussed how our past would make appearances throughout our relationship. When they did, we would work through them together. And we did just that. It may have taken time sometimes to open up, it may have been recurring itrational thoughts that caused a problem, but we got through things, made it clear we would support each other and confirmed our love remained strong.
I would never expect us to solve and conquer any given issues at the first time of trying, or that it would be easy, whichever of us were reliving their past - nonetheless, we did discuss this incident as the evening progressed. I expressed where I felt these feelings came from and apologised for my behaviour. I didn’t think this incident was simply dismissed, but given how we enjoyed the rest of the next and the remainder of this trip, given the way we discussed what happened with a positive conclusion, I felt we had dealt with the matter and moved on.
But as I said, this behaviour of mine had happened before - and it would happen again, once I returned home. Experiencing jet lag and missing my partner dearly, along with some additional factors I faced when arriving home, my mood declined in a similar way. I didn’t express myself to the woman I loved so much, preferring to put up a shield like I did in the past, not wanting her to worry. But when I finally convinced myself to try and address what was going on, my partner was left feeling unsure. More unsure than she ever had done before.
I wanted to give her time to collect her thoughts, thinking the same outcome was coming as it always had before. But I had rested way too long on my laurels. She came back a day later following contemplation time to say she wasn’t sure she wanted this anymore…
As somebody who has experiences issues of anxiety throughout my life, I was aware of how negative thoughts can spiral into irrationality. Clearer heads prevail. But as the days wore on, my confusion and worry grew as her uncertainty wasn’t already becoming clearer. It has never taken this long. With each passing day, the irrational thoughts appeared in my head. This is it. This is the end.
What about all those things we had said about our future over the years, only as long as a few days ago? There was never an inkling that things were on remotely shaky ground, because we always managed to talk and work things out. Nothing ever felt as if it was left unresolved.
I was caught so off guard. As we always had, I expressed these feelings to her. She wanted me to. But as I questioned whether this was really the end, questioned the truth of all those previous statements as a result of this sudden, new territory we were in , the answer came in the early hours of Thursday morning. “I think we shouldn’t continue with thi”.
Of course my issues were triggering, there’s absolutely no denying that and I fully take responsibility for my actions (and lack of). She explained that whilst she felt she had dealt with this behaviour of mine and moved forward, in reality, she realises she had been surpressing her feelings and how much my behaviour had been affected her.
But in telling me what she had benen wrestling with over those past few days, it felt to me that a number of these issues also stemmed from her previous relationship as well. In previous conversations, including those relating to this predicament, she would raise a number of worries: she thought I would find her a “boring buzzkill” because that’s what her ex would tell her; she was sometimes scared I’d get bored of her, like her ex did; she said that her ex would tell her she “always found a problem” in their relationship to complain about and thought I would eventually think the same; her ex would tell her she “ruined everything” and when an issue was once raised during a vacation, he blamed her for the bad mood and for “ruining the entire trip”.
My issues, the one that has arisen again, played a factor, but we were coming to the point where the next step was on the horizon. We had talked about me moving to be with her on a permanent basis, a move that seemed even more logical with my current employer potentially laying off employers in the near future. Even if that wasn’t the case, our next potential trip wouldn’t be possible until October at the earliest. The longest we’ve been apart since meeting up. Now seemed a better time than any to start looking into these plans.
We were both open about this future - and for years, expressed how we couldn’t wait until this day could finally come. We would never have the pain of being apart for long periods of time. One final countdown. Then we could crash, together, after work. Snuggle up close. Turn into couch potatoea together under a blanket. We could cook each other dinner. Cook each other breakfast. Head off to work together. We both really wanted this and expressed it regularly.
But she admitted that the sudden reality of this, now seemingly so close, further added to her mixed feelings. Understandable, I felt - what a big step this will be. But the worries of my behaviour occuring in person when we were together permanently was suddenly too strong to ignore. From what she explained, these kind of doubts formed the basis of her decision.
The future:
We talked. We cried. I didn’t want things to end but didn’t want to be unattractively desperate, grovelling for her to stay. We talked about all of the many great things we experienced together and the feelings we have for one another. She told me she loved me and continues to love me so much. She wants to give me time to heal, have closure… but in the days since that last interaction, I begin to think that I should have been more vocal. She told me that I am free to message her to clarify things, but had also said during our last call that we should probably take some weeks to heal.
I did give in and message her yesterday, just to check in and see how she was and to check whether she was still ok to ask/say some things, especially this soon. She told me she was struggling with not interacting with me in the same ways as usual - sending memes, telling me about her day - and had been thinking about me a lot but ultimately wanted to give me space. Even that gave me hope.
I agreed to put my thoughts together soon, knowing she had a busy weekend with a family wedding, but after so much soul searching over the past few days, replaying and re-reading everything, looking at pictures and videos of our times together, I still strongly feel we could get through this.
I should have acted on my issues sooner, I fully understand that. Especially now, of course. No excuse, but I want to believe that because we always got through these moments, tackled the issues in the moment and moved forward positively, that I became slack at improving myself. But I am determined to be a better person. Not just for her, but for myself too. This issue will affect any partner I would potentially ever have and I recognise how unhealthy, how frustrating it can be to deal with. I’ve booked counselling sessions, one of which I have already undertaken to make a start on addressing this problem.
But I don’t want somebody else to experience the positive changes I’m working on. I want it to be her.
I’m sure some of you have been in similar scenarios, but given my wall of text above, should I be fighting for this like my head and heart are shouting out for me to do? I feel there is so much good still here. So, so much that is worth saving. I fully appreciate the fact that this has all come from one partner’s perspective and I’m happy to try as best I can to elaborate further without giving too much personal/identifiable information away.
Also, thank you to everyone who took the time to read all of this
2023.06.10 20:15 callm3fusion Wolverine 1000 Mile MocToe - My Journey + Mistakes
Hi GYW,
Its my routine boot care day and I was reminiscing about my first pair of GYW boots, so I thought it would be fun to show an example of how you can mess up every single thing, break all the rules of boot purchasing and care we've learned here in GYW... and still end up with a pretty great pair of boots.
I started my journey back in early 2018, I was a 22 year old Produce manager at a grocery store and a buddy of mine was going on and on about how Wolverine 1000 mile boots were the greatest boots ever made. It peaked my interest so I did some hardcore research on these boots (2 google searches, and a scroll through their website). I was sold. But fuck, $400? That's a whole paycheck for me. I had moved back in with my parents after a breakup and had some disposable income but still..$400?? So, I put the idea on the back burner, and then they consumed every thought I was having.
Fast forward to March and I was at a Nordstrom's Rack with my mom just perusing the men's shoe department... lo and behold. There was a freaking pair of 1000 miles for $199.99. Pretty much half off! Not the ones I was originally looking at but still, cant beat half price.
Now, you have to remember, I knew NOTHING about GYW/Heritage boots. I had some Timberland hiking boots from boy scouts but nothing about this side of the boot world.
I was a 10.5 in running shoes, and these were a 10.5....perfect. I got them. Used a generic Instagram filter and showed the world.
https://imgur.com/dnAYBzt https://imgur.com/a/fIRmgYN
After the first week of wearing these I was bummed, crushed, defeated, full of regret, because my feet were fucking swimming in them, I couldn't tighten the laces enough to keep my feet in place and they were getting scratched as all hell (which sucked because I just spent 200 hard earned dollars on them and I wanted them to look nice). I also have atrocious arches so the lack of any support in these things absolutely killed my feet and knees. (over the years I discovered I'm actually a 9-9.5D depending on brand)
Since I had bad knees I decided to say screw it and throw a set of SuperFeet green insoles in them that I had laying around and ya know what, it helped. Gave me about 1/4-1/2" within the boot that helped me fill it out a bit. Night and Day difference. They no longer hurt to wear. I rolled with this for a couple months but was still really frustrated about how they were creasing and folding in weird places. https://imgur.com/T0RGgLc
A couple months later I stumbled upon a reddit post that mentioned you're supposed to condition your boots to help keep the leather moisturized and extend the life...And that was the extent of the research I did. I proceeded to go on amazon and bought Doc Martens Wonderbalm and a bottle of Lexol from amazon recommended. I proceeded to condition the ever loving fuck out of these boots. When I say I over did it, I mean there was a time I was doing it after almost every wear.
Later, I found another reddit post that basically said "hey there speed racer slow the hell down, only do it every six months or so unless you're abusing the hell out of them in super dry conditions". I'm a PNW guy, so that didn't apply to me... and I slowed down a bit (albeit not as much as I should have).
Its now 2023, I've since found goodyearwelt and other leather boot subreddits. Purchased Whites, Chippewas, Iron Rangers, and various other leather shoes/boots. I have invested in brushes and other polishes and creams too. I still wear these boots semi-regularly with that same set of SuperFeet insoles and a new set of laces. They hold a special place in my heart as the pair of boots that led me down a path of boot discovery and obsession. Although a cocaine addiction might have been cheaper....
I love them, they're not perfect, they're by far not the greatest boot ever made, but they're mine and I think they still look pretty darn nice. You can see in places where the hard insole has stretched out the toe box and creased in weird ways, but to hell with it. I think the patina and creasing makes them look loved. https://imgur.com/DQsUWod
Shout out to all you nice folks out here on GYW that consistently and repeatedly answer the same conditioning questions, creasing questions and sizing questions out there from the noobs that are just getting in to this expensive lifestyle. I wouldn't be here without some of you guys.
https://imgur.com/kqFEmyH
If you made it this far, thanks for reading. I was just having some fun looking back at all my mistakes and naiveties.

2023.06.10 20:12 DeeTastic95 Rock House
The Rock House
I am a 28 year old female. The story I’m about to tell you happened back in 2016 with my best friend Chris
Now every since the day Chris and I met we have always got ourselves in the dumbest things ever. I mean Chris ran away once and had my nerves all messed up. But He came back because he had no money. We were not the smartest teens but we still enjoyed life.
So one summer night Chris and I were hanging and we were trying to think of a place to explore (like we always did). At the time I told him I’ve never been to the old Rock House In Greenwood South Carolina. ( Now before I get started let me give you a little History on the Rock house. A man named Thomas “Tom” Payne Tolbert built a “Fire Proof House” in 1926. The fireproof house was constructed entirely from stone, concrete, glass, and steel.After years of family homes burning down. Tolbert lived in the detached kitchen and used the large house to store family heirlooms. Tolbert lived his later years in isolation.) The now-crumbling fortress is accessible only by foot, and no one has ever lived inside its walls. You can look up way more about the History online if you like.
No back to my story. I’ve always been told the Rock House has many spirits in and around it but like I said at the time I’ve never been to it. So with that said. Chris and I took my cousins car and headed out to the Old Rock House. I’ve heard of people going in the day time but never heard people say they went at night. We being dumb went at night because why not. Ghost and spirits never bothered me to much being that I’ve seen them my whole life.
Once we pull up to the woods and park on the side of the road I get the bad feeling run all over my body. I sit there for a moment. I believe Chris sees this look on my face and ask if I still want to do this. Something is telling me not to get out but at the same time I want to see this place even at night.
“Yeah let’s go see how scary this place is” I told him. “Hell yeah let’s do it!” he replied. We get out and start walking threw the woods. As we are walking we have our phones out for light and we are making jokes acting silly like we always do. We can never take anything seriously no matter what. As we are walking we don’t realize how quite it is to be in the woods… at night… in the middle of summer…
We find our way to the front of the house. Chris is in front of me and we are looking at the house. No front door and no windows. All you can see is pure darkness. For some reason I just can’t move even though Chris is walking to what used to be the door. At this moment I realize we are in complete darkness and there are no sounds. No animals, no bugs no wind or anything. Just pure silence. Then out of the corner of my eye I see something in the top left window. But before I completely look I hear something to the left of me and I look over. But I see nothing. Only the darkness. A feeling of dread falls over me but nothing is there. Chris is now at the door of the house and looks inside. I look at the windows and there it is. Something is there in the window looking down at me. My body turns cold. Those eyes. I’ll never forget those eyes burning a hole in my soul. Bright yellow redish eyes like fire. All of a sudden I hear Chris say “Oh Hell No” He turns to run to me but my body is still frozen. He grabs my wrist and pulls me to run. He never lets me go. As we are running we are jumping over falling trees and everything on the ground that people have left over time. As we run I realize something is running beside us and I don’t dare to look back.
My body is now in pilot mood as Chris has the grip still on my wrist pulling me. My mind is blank and my heart is racing. At one point I feel like I can feel the breath of what ever is chasing us.
The moment we make it to the car everything comes back to me and I’m back in control of my mind and body. We jump In the car and Chris goes to start the car he has is face covered in the string wheel as he tries to start the car... but… it’s dead! THE CAR IS DEAD! We start freaking out with my head buried between my legs and Chris still hiding his face I yell out “THIS IS IT CHRIS THIS IS HOW WE DIE! THIS IS WHY US WHITE PEOPLE DIE IN MOVIES BECAUSE WE DO DUMB SHIT LIKE THIS!” Chris yells back at me “Shut up we are not going to die the car will start!” I can still feel this thing outside of the car. Its just there. Is this why there are so many spirits here? Does it take the souls of people who it has caught come here? I feel it looking at us. Something wants me to look at it but at the same times a voice in my head is telling me not to. I want to cry.
The car starts and Chris tries to speed off. We start going dowm the road but then… one of the ties blew. We are now on the side of the road again and we just sit there not wanting to get out. It’s quite again. The feeling of being watched is still there. Luckily for us a guy in a truck pulls up behind us. I feel safe right now. The guy pulls over and helps Chris change the tire. I hold my phone as a light with my back to the woods. I still have that feeling. I want to turn and see what is there but I dare not to. Something is telling me not to look.
After the tire gets fixed we head to the Huddle House close by to calm down. The poor lady working that night sees something is wrong and with what little money we have the lady helps us pay for a meal.
The next few days Strange things start happening around my house. For example I’m in the kitchen fixing something for lunch. My roommate and I are talking like normal and the cutting board goes flying across the kitchen. See gives me this looks and says. “See what you caused! Shit keeps happening for no reason all because you want to visit haunted places.” I pick up the cutting board. At this point I feel like I need to make things right. I've always been told that if you disturb the dead that you have to make things right. So with that being said. That weekend I go see some friends who doesn’t live for from the Rock House and tell them I need to go there so we do. This time it’s full daylight. Once we get there I still have this feeling but I don’t say a word. Once we get to the house my friends go in to look around. They explore the place. Inside and out. I look to the left of me and see nothing but the feeling is there. My body is weak. As I walk in I look in the direction that Chris saw something at. Then I look into the room to the left of me and see the room is full of designs in paint all over the room. The whole house is covered the same way. But there is something about this one room. I walk into the room. There is a Pentagram with all the markings around it. I walk over to it and examine it closely.
I walk around it seeing if it’s done right and to my eyes I see that it is. I yell out to my friends “Hey I think someone tried to summon a demon or something!” As soon as the words leave my mouth something comes crashing down. I nope the hell out of there and just start running out of the house sadly leaving my friends inside not meaning to. All I do is run through the woods yelling “I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry!” I don’t stop until I’m out of the woods.
My friends come after me wondering what is going on so I tell them about the other night and what just happened as well. At this point I just want to leave. We all get into the car. The friend driving goes to start the car… it’s dead… just like the other night but in a different car. My mind goes back to the other night this big dark creature comes to mind for some reason. I never seen it before. Was it the thing chasing us that night? Was it putting itself in my mind to scare me more? So many questions. I try my best not to freak out. I called my roommate to come pick us up. As we are waiting a car pulls up. He must live on this road and knows what happened. He says every time someone goes to the house their car is dead when they get back. He helps jump start the car and we go down the road. I see my roommate and I jump out of the car and jump into mine. I speed off as fast as I can wanting to get as far away from this place at possible. My friends meet me at my house and I made a promise to my self to never go back to the Rock House.
For some reason Chris and I stopped hanging out. We didn’t get in a fight or anything we just stopped being friends and we never spoke about what happened that night until a few weeks again. We both seemed to have forgotten that night. I called him and asked him what it was that he saw that night inside the house to make him do what he did. He doesn’t remember what he saw but he remembers that night. I thought I wouldnt forget but I did until a few weeks ago... Someone told me that a brain will block out something so traumatizing that you won’t remember what happened and live your life like normal. Maybe that’s what our brains did for us so we won’t live in fear forever.
Now its 2023 and now that I remember this I told this story recently to a few of my friends at work and one person told me they want to visit The Rock House. I told them no they don’t but they really want to not believing in Ghost and has never experienced anything Ghostly. So I said “Go if you want but I promise you I won’t be going back to that place ever again and once you do you won’t go back there either. The witch that used to live behind me didn’t scare my as much as what ever was in the woods that night.” Yes a witch used to live in the property behind my hosue.

I look to the left of me and see nothing but the feeling is there. My body is weak. As I walk in I look in the direction that Chris saw something at. Then I look into the room to the left of me and see the room is full of designs in paint all over the room. The whole house is covered the same way. But there is something about this one room. I walk into the room. There is a Pentagram with all the markings around it. I walk over to it and examine it closely.
I walk around it seeing if it’s done right and to my eyes I see that it is. I yell out to my friends “Hey I think someone tried to summon a demon or something!” As soon as the words leave my mouth something comes crashing down. I nope the hell out of there and just start running out of the house sadly leaving my friends inside not meaning to. All I do is run through the woods yelling “I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry!” I don’t stop until I’m out of the woods.
My friends come after me wondering what is going on so I tell them about the other night and what just happened as well. At this point I just want to leave. We all get into the car. The friend driving goes to start the car… it’s dead… just like the other night but in a different car. My mind goes back to the other night this big dark creature comes to mind for some reason. I never seen it before. Was it the thing chasing us that night? Was it putting itself in my mind to scare me more? So many questions. I try my best not to freak out. I called my roommate to come pick us up. As we are waiting a car pulls up. He must live on this road and knows what happened. He says every time someone goes to the house their car is dead when they get back. He helps jump start the car and we go down the road. I see my roommate and I jump out of the car and jump into mine. I speed off as fast as I can wanting to get as far away from this place at possible. My friends meet me at my house and I made a promise to my self to never go back to the Rock House.
For some reason Chris and I stopped hanging out. We didn’t get in a fight or anything we just stopped being friends and we never spoke about what happened that night until a few weeks again. We both seemed to have forgotten that night. I called him and asked him what it was that he saw that night inside the house to make him do what he did. He doesn’t remember what he saw but he remembers that night. I thought I wouldnt forget but I did until a few weeks ago... Someone told me that a brain will block out something so traumatizing that you won’t remember what happened and live your life like normal. Maybe that’s what our brains did for us so we won’t live in fear forever.
Now its 2023 and now that I remember this I told this story recently to a few of my friends at work and one person told me they want to visit The Rock House. I told them no they don’t but they really want to not believing in Ghost and has never experienced anything Ghostly. So I said “Go if you want but I promise you I won’t be going back to that place ever again and once you do you won’t go back there either. The witch that used to live behind me didn’t scare my as much as what ever was in the woods that night.” Yes a witch used to live in the property behind my hosue.
2023.06.10 20:04 trengamy Cum sa imi accept situatia?
Cont nou pt motive destul de evidente..putin context pt ce urmeaza:
provin dintr-o familie traditionala romaneasca unde tatal intruchipeaza in mod perfect stereotipul de taran adica a fost abuziv fizic si psihic cativa ani la rand (bataile au inceput de cand eram mic copil, au incetat dar are momente in care se enerveaza urat si urla ca din gura de sarpe), e clar ca nu il suport absolut deloc si as da orice ca sa nu mai fiu in preajma lui, efectiv simt cum fierbe sangele in mine cand il vad/aud. am avut caderi nervoase in fata lui (2 la numar) si cred ca de atunci nu mai are tupeul sa se puna cu mine. Nu m-a placut niciodata ptc sunt fata iar el si-a dorit un fiu.
Mama a indurat muulta suferinta ani la rand si mai mult ca sigur are sanatatea mintala la pamant dar ori nu isi da seama ori s-a lamurit dar ii este frica sa apeleze la ajutor profesional . avand in vedere ca sunt in alt oras pt facultate, adeseori imi fac grija sa nu fie lovita din nou si nu stiu cum sa o intreb pentru ca e destul de evident faptul ca tot prin ce am trecut a fost maturat sub pres si parca mai bine am muri decat sa vorbim despre asta (asta este vibe-ul, va rog nu il luati in serios).
Sora mea e casatorita cu un pedofil (ati citit bine, a avut 14 cand unul de 24 sau 25 a pus ochii pe ea si ia futut viata). Parintii nostri nu prea au luptat pt ea, mama o facea in toate felurile in loc sa o ajute iar pe tata il durea fix in cur ptc pentru el munca era mai importanta decat sa-si salveze propriul copil de la grooming (un lucru pe care l-am descoperit de abia cand am crescut mai mare si am realizat ce i s-a intamplat surorii mele, pur si simplu a fost un moment negru pt mine). E atat de clar ca intre ei nu mai exista absolut nimic (iubire nu a fost niciodata daca asta va intrebati) iar ea a ramas cu el mai mult pentru convenienta (nu o invinovatesc, suntem de la sat iar ea s-a mutat la oras unde statea el, iar acolo are mai multe oportunitati dar din cauza lui a pierdut multa experienta si a facut cam ce a spus el, ajungand la varsta de 27 de ani fara un job prea stabil, plus ca isi doreste un copil dar el refuza sa-si regleze coaiele).
Eu am o gramada de traume,o copilarie de cacat, nu reusesc sa le pun in scris ptc deja am facut un wall of text, dar mai pe scurt sunt fucked up. Am mers la terapie dar am renuntat ptc nu imi permite situatia financiara (lucrez part time, imi ajung banii cat sa platesc taxele la faculta, ma mai ajuta mama ca pt tata nu prea exist).
Ma duc la o facultate de tot rahatul (comunicare si relatii) care nu o sa ma ajute mai deloc in viata, am vrut sa ma fac profesoara de engleza dar am fost un an la litere si am crezut ca intru la nebuni. Am realizat ca nu am atributiile necesare pt a fi profesoara iar avand in vedere si situatia profesorilor din ro atunci nu se mai pune problema
Sunt constienta ca nu prea o sa se imbunateasca situatia, am sperat ani la rand ca o sa ma salvez sau ma rog o sa ma salveze cineva (nu ma pot imagina intr-o relatie avand in vedere tipul meu de atasament, stima de sine extrem de scazuta,starile de bipolaritate,nu reusesc sa mentin nici prieteniile) dar am sperat degeaba ptc realitatea m-a lovit in fata si acum sunt plina de resentiment.
Revenind la intrebarea initiala, cum as putea eu sa fac primul pas si sa imi accept situatia asa cum e? cum fac in asa fel incat sa-mi iert catusi de putin parintii si in fiecare zi, sa cultiv niste speranta atat doar cat sa ma tina in viata? (am ganduri sinucigase si am avut o singura tentativa de suicid). Nu o sa am niciodata o familie normala, nu o sa stiu niciodata cum e sa petreci timp cu proprii tai fara ca ei sa se enerveze fara niciun motiv parinti sau cum ar fi sa mergem undeva intr-o vacanta (ai mei mai bine si-ar rupe un picior decat sa mergem undeva sa vedem/bem/mancam ceva, in ciuda faptului ca au bani)..etc etc. Deci cum?

2023.06.10 20:01 anibanieee I’m a bad person
I truly don’t know where to start so just bear with me, please…
Me and my boyfriend have been dating for almost 10 months. I’ve had a huge crush on him for years and when we first started dating at the end of summer we were both over the moon happy. But around October my mental health really went ⬇️⬇️. But he was there for me, there like no one ever was before. It was hard on both of us. But back then he was loving, he showed me so much love and affection. He reminded me daily that I was the most loved woman on earth, he expressed his love, we made time for each other. Of course long distance is never easy, but the first few months just flowed, everything was perfect. But around March we stopped being sexual, then our calls got shorter and his texts throughout the day got fewer and fewer. I stopped feeling his warmth and I genuinely started feeling him as a very close friend rather than a boyfriend. He was going through a rough spot, he was studing way too much for his own good, but I was there, I waited for him every day past 11PM my time (10PM his time). But then it got to the point where I completely had to carry the relationship, the conversations and everything. But it got to the point where I’m starting to lose feelings for him, I’m tired of putting all the effort all on my own, I’m tired of not feeling like I’m loved, I’m tired of feeling like I’m never going to be a priority in his life, in his world. I constantly plan things: I planned him a picnic when we saw each other a month or so ago; I constantly invent games for him to earn nudes and so on; I buy him gifts all the times; Heck I’ve given him more flowers than he’s given me.
I think I’ve developed feelings for a friend/acquaintance of mine. Today I went to an event- just for her, but she didn’t show up because she was with her girlfriend. I genuinely got super jealous and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I love my boyfriend, I really do, but I feel like he’s losing me and I feel completely out of control. I don’t want to ruin my relationship or her relationship, but I’m extremely unhappy in my relationship. We’ve had countless of talks but they never get anywhere. He knows I need affection and yet he can’t give it to me and that really hurts me. I just want to love and be loved, but his lack of affection really turns me off from doing things for him- like games, posting him on the gram and so on.
P.S my boyfriend has a good and honest heart. He could never cheat on me so no- he hasn’t fallen in love with someone else. He’s just not the type of person to do it.

2023.06.10 19:56 Lifelong-Kayteigh Expanded Merch Wishlist
One of the three rolling lists I maintain on my Notes App re: las cultch is Ideas for Merch; putting a few from the list into the Universe (Reddit) FYC:
— In My Charizard Era
— Let’s Get Tactile
— Podcasts are a Visual Medium (Famously)
— “I may not know my words but I know my heart.” — Matt Rogers
— The McPoutine is the Olympics of Drag*
(*my favorite sentence ever uttered on the pod)
I would pay a huge markup for a t-shirt with these words on it.
Any additions to the list?

2023.06.10 19:54 salted_sclera My common law boyfriend only acts ignorant in front of others
He’s thoughtful and kind. But he’s used the “n” word one time in front of his kids in the car when describing a bad driver, this was two years in to our relationship he never said that and knows that I have siblings that I worry for that are half black. That was last year. Last week he said to me in private he noticed that the only movies I ever really pay attention to when he’s watching them are ones focused on black people/black issues. Even when it comes to books, I just prefer nonfiction and social studies never interested me, just things that hit close to home. Ie black issues. He didn’t talk down on me but last night, when we were at a bar with some friends for one of their birthday, my common law partner asked me in front of his friend why I love watching movies with black people in them. (His friend mentioned a movie about some cello or bass musician and I got excited because again I have a preference for issues relevant to me as a brown-skinned girl.) his friend made a gesture representing large penises
He’s embarrassed me in the past. For something else. One of his regular customers came with her boyfriend into the store he works at and made the boyfriend ask my boyfriend if he was interested in being in a polyamorous relationship. He told me about it, he seemed in shock, but I immediately said no. To me it’s cheating, there is no relationship if you’re sleeping around, period. Then, he brought it up again a few days later and asked me what I thought about it. I said that’s disgusting, I would not. Then, he brought it up a third time but this time in front of our roommate and asked me how I felt about it in front of him, as if he didn’t already ask me twice before.
Does he not respect me, and my life experience? I’m going to pack my suitcase up nonetheless, I know I can find someone to respect me more than he allegedly does. I’m just really upset right now and feel like I can’t talk about it with him because he’s good at gaslighting me. Please if you want send some love or healing energy, because heart feels drained right about now.

2023.06.10 19:52 DrSuperZeco I've finally experienced the feeling of being 'chased', wanted and desired. The feeling of sitting and working while someone likes me and wants me sitting right next to me. Today I learned what the age gap meant. I'm crushed.
I'm working on my research from a coffee shop known to be a hangout for University students, particularly medical students. Its the kind of place where if someone speaks out loud people would shush them. Almost like a library.
About a month ago I noticed a girl acting weird around me. She's pretty and all and had University stickers on her laptop. Guessed in her 20s.
I ignored her and kept working to meet my deadline. Until it was obvious to everyone in this place that she's crushing on me and it reached a point where I can't really focus on my work because she's almost on my lap. As much as I loved everything about her and the feelings she was giving me, I didn't want to engage in meaningless interaction and have a relationship just for fun. Until few weeks ago her friends were saying out loud that she wants a serious relationship that ends with marriage (we are middle easterns, go figure).
That was clear hint for me, so I took it. Said hello, and started talking...
I've been wanting a relationship probably all my life and I've approached many over the years. I kept my match range to 28-32 for the sake of age gap (I'm turning 40 in few months).
She's half my age, my friends told me if you find someone willing to be in relationship with you dont turn it down. My sister knows how long I've been wanting one but never been lucky. I'm not ugly, or bad in anyway. I guess it just was never meant for me to meet the right person.
I spent the past couple of weeks trying to overcome the age gap. And this girl is like a cat, whenever you try to send her away she would come back. Put that in broken lonely heart of mine context... its really painful.
Today, I learned that her father is one year older than me.
That crushed me.
Not because I'm giving up on the potential of us. But the fact that THIS is what I've lost. Having children. Seeing my children grow up in front of me. Seeing them go to University. Meeting their partners. All of that... all is gone. And I'm seeing in front of me what I've missed. And it wasn't missed by choice. I wanted it with all my heart. It just never happened.

2023.06.10 19:51 Eskerna_Luka The harmful side of the LGBTQ+ movement (very long post, take time).
Me and my friends have been studying and interacting with the LGBTQ+ offline and online for years. This article sums up our views towards some LGBTQ+-related issues. However, before coming to address that, I must insist on taking this position of mine without presuming that I am victimizing myself or intentionally unjustly painting the LGBTQ+ movement as a whole in bad image. The reason for this is that the people who instantly jump into such conclusions are also parts of the problem I am going to talk about. This post is going to be political (not American politics or online teenage banter), so if you are not happy to dwell into this area, decide for yourself before continuing.
Firstly, I would like to point out how oversexual many LGBTQ+ members are. By this, I do not mean that they must not argue for their rights, nor do I mean that every conversation they talk is about LGBTQ+ rights. Some people would take that as a reason to say the LGBTQ+ is forcing LGBTQ+ to their throats, but I do not think so. Our (me and my pals) problem is that almost every conversation which these LGBTQ+ folks participate in, they bring up wild sex without any sort of manner. Although they are not provoking us or something, neither is it that me and the fellers do not enjoy sex and attempt to find out the best methods for the finest sex, but we do not treat our daily life as mere sex. I also understand some non-LGBTQ+ people do talk about sex as much as these folks I mentioned, but not in my country, and my environment.
Here is the tricky part. For the person reading this, you must understand that whether or not a person is open to sexual conversations is, especially if you are from Europe or the United States, you may be completely fine, or mostly fine with having such talks daily. You believe that behavior is just, which I understand, that is your culture. I am not from the West, me and the folks are from what Western commenters enjoy calling the "third world." We have a different culture from the West, pretty much every other nation has different cultures from the West. Even the West has different cultures from other Western countries. So what you think as just might not be just for other countries. For example, if in your country, having a lot of body counts is a virtue while not in another country, you are obligated to respect that. For us, it is not just at all to have such an unregulated amount of sexual comments during the chatter. This is also a fact for everything other than sex, which I feel that a lot of people cannot grasp.
Unaccusingly speaking, the LGBTQ+ movement originates from the West. There, LGBTQ+ people are open to sex alongside a bunch of other stuff other cultures condemn. They talk about sex freely, and enjoy it freely. You can find a lot of articles from LGBTQ+ writers promoting sex and sexual styles. I understand, you do you in your country. The point is that Western powers colonized my country during the colonial era and it was also them who introduced the prostitutes and sexualized our women, as well as breaking our traditions and suppressing our religions and beliefs, while importing that of the West. The whole deal with the LGBTQ+ members in my country being too open towards sex seems a bit too familiar, considering the entirety of their lives surrounds what people from Western countries do. It is always "Western people do that, let us do that too." On LGBTQ+ subreddits, it is also very common for writers to condemn nations who have an apparently less open approach towards the LGBTQ+ movement. We can see a pattern of what the elites of a certain LGBTQ+ community have been attempting.
However, Western or not, globalization is happening and it is not only the West's culture that is affecting ours. We have viewed this through the lens of the struggle between nations, and it is only the matter of whether or not the readers of this post has done the same before coming to conclusions.
Secondly, it happens to an amount of LGBTQ+ people that somehow they are the center of the universe. Again, this is not meant to say that they do not have the right to address their oppression, however, I do believe this is both common for my country and the world that some LGBTQ+ folks are too egoistic for society's good. What I am trying to make clear is that, for example, my friend has been asked by a gay man whether or not he would want to date a gay man. He said no, and in a conversation with me, this gay person said my friend was just being jealous of not being as manly as he is. LGBTQ+ supporter pals also seem to cherish this guy's thoughts.
When men disagree with LGBTQ+ agendas, it is common for them to receive insults that they "are not a real man" from the community. When women do that, they also receive similar insults. It is a hypocrisy to fight for gender and sexual equality and liberation, but consider oneself the only true and just, while the others are mere barbarians looking for enlightenment.
Thirdly, a few LGBTQ+ sexual harassers have been rather more creepy than the average non-LGBTQ+ creeps, and they know how to take advantage of the LGBTQ+ movement. For instance, a few months ago, my middle-aged male colleague once was almost taken advantage of by a young male "genderfluid" person. It was at the end of the shift, and we were going home for lunch to prepare for the afternoon shift. I heard a lot of shouting voices from the department he worked in. It turned out that this genderfluid individual came to him and asked to have sex with him. He, of course, as much as he respected our culture and his duty to his wife and children, refused. The gender fluid person then grabbed his arm and insisted on having sex. My colleague, again, calmly said no. The other person had a breakdown and started calling my colleague a creep who been creeping on them for a long time. Other people heard the shouting and surrounded them. Insults were beginning to be thrown towards my colleague, a few people even went so far as to push my colleague around. It was only until the guards came that the truth was told. That genderfluid person did not come to work that afternoon. Our boss came to us and asked for what happened, he showed us screenshots of the genderfluid person claiming that we ganged up on him, sexually harassed him, insulted him, and attacked him physically. When our boss showed us the chat, the person has already unsent all of their messages.
This behavior is, to be honest, not uncommon at all. Online LGBTQ+ members and supporters have the same behavior when their agendas are questioned, or people dislike certain traits of their personalities, or when their wrongdoings are justly brought out to the light. Celebrities like Erza Miller have had similar breakdowns. Even certain United States politicians do that. Breakdowns are common for rude and egoistic people, but when gender, sexuality and a gender-based political movement is used as the justification, it is a much greater problem. Some people say such behaviors are understandable, because they root in the LGBTQ+'s oppression and mental health problems caused by abuse. That argument is but sophism.
Last but not least, it strikes us that certain parts of the pro-LGBTQ+ arguments usually found on online articles are misleading at best. For example, three years ago, movement supporters focused on attempting to prove that being an LGBTQ+ person was a biological necessity, however, a lot of LGBTQ+ members have now considered it to be simply a choice. In fact, it is a choice. Some members of the older generations also have sexual urges the LGBTQ+ have. However, they still decide to be the traditional male-female, male-to-female, and female-to-male. Supporters claim our parental generations are usually male-female only because the LGBTQ+ was more oppressed back then. However, this argument presumes that the older generations feel oppressed for not having the right to be the LGBTQ+, which is a fallacy.
It is a matter of fact that many people only become the LGBTQ+ after they have seen articles, or heard other people, or seen members of the movement promoting it. People usually adopt lifestyles they consider new, alien and exotic. In this day and age, that mentality is even more prominent than ever. It should not be hard to understand that lots of people only adopt LGBTQ+ lifestyles after they have seen it. This is not to mention that lots of teens and children are being groomed to become parts of the LGBTQ+ too.
Supporters give the argument that the media helps LGBTQ+ people find out their sexuality and gender. However, this argument makes the assumption that people are already LGBTQ+, which is also a fallacy. While there are a few (in contradiction to the numerous LGBTQ+ folks claiming to be nowadays) people who do have certain feelings leaning towards an LGBTQ+ lifestyle, as I have said, they can choose. In conclusion, the articles are not intended to "help" people "find out" anything, rather, they are written to lead people to adopt the intended sexuality and gender.
Another point to give is how some individuals only seem to have become more sensitive, felt upset, or go so far as to get depressed over gender issues after they have seen the media presenting them in such light. While it is true that a lot of people are harassed for being parts of the movement, however, if you pay attention, it is evident that the media has been influencing people to adopt extreme feelings. Notice the words that are used, the statistics, the images, the stories, the so-called evidences. Most articles are but designed.

Firstly, I would like to point out how oversexual many LGBTQ+ members are. By this, I do not mean that they must not argue for their rights, nor do I mean that every conversation they talk is about LGBTQ+ rights. Some people would take that as a reason to say the LGBTQ+ is forcing LGBTQ+ to their throats, but I do not think so. Our (me and my pals) problem is that almost every conversation which these LGBTQ+ folks participate in, they bring up wild sex without any sort of manner. Although they are not provoking us or something, neither is it that me and the fellers do not enjoy sex and attempt to find out the best methods for the finest sex, but we do not treat our daily life as mere sex. I also understand some non-LGBTQ+ people do talk about sex as much as these folks I mentioned, but not in my country, and my environment.
Here is the tricky part. For the person reading this, you must understand that whether or not a person is open to sexual conversations is, especially if you are from Europe or the United States, you may be completely fine, or mostly fine with having such talks daily. You believe that behavior is just, which I understand, that is your culture. I am not from the West, me and the folks are from what Western commenters enjoy calling the "third world." We have a different culture from the West, pretty much every other nation has different cultures from the West. Even the West has different cultures from other Western countries. So what you think as just might not be just for other countries. For example, if in your country, having a lot of body counts is a virtue while not in another country, you are obligated to respect that. For us, it is not just at all to have such an unregulated amount of sexual comments during the chatter. This is also a fact for everything other than sex, which I feel that a lot of people cannot grasp.
Unaccusingly speaking, the LGBTQ+ movement originates from the West. There, LGBTQ+ people are open to sex alongside a bunch of other stuff other cultures condemn. They talk about sex freely, and enjoy it freely. You can find a lot of articles from LGBTQ+ writers promoting sex and sexual styles. I understand, you do you in your country. The point is that Western powers colonized my country during the colonial era and it was also them who introduced the prostitutes and sexualized our women, as well as breaking our traditions and suppressing our religions and beliefs, while importing that of the West. The whole deal with the LGBTQ+ members in my country being too open towards sex seems a bit too familiar, considering the entirety of their lives surrounds what people from Western countries do. It is always "Western people do that, let us do that too." On LGBTQ+ subreddits, it is also very common for writers to condemn nations who have an apparently less open approach towards the LGBTQ+ movement. We can see a pattern of what the elites of a certain LGBTQ+ community have been attempting.
However, Western or not, globalization is happening and it is not only the West's culture that is affecting ours. We have viewed this through the lens of the struggle between nations, and it is only the matter of whether or not the readers of this post has done the same before coming to conclusions.
Secondly, it happens to an amount of LGBTQ+ people that somehow they are the center of the universe. Again, this is not meant to say that they do not have the right to address their oppression, however, I do believe this is both common for my country and the world that some LGBTQ+ folks are too egoistic for society's good. What I am trying to make clear is that, for example, my friend has been asked by a gay man whether or not he would want to date a gay man. He said no, and in a conversation with me, this gay person said my friend was just being jealous of not being as manly as he is. LGBTQ+ supporter pals also seem to cherish this guy's thoughts.
When men disagree with LGBTQ+ agendas, it is common for them to receive insults that they "are not a real man" from the community. When women do that, they also receive similar insults. It is a hypocrisy to fight for gender and sexual equality and liberation, but consider oneself the only true and just, while the others are mere barbarians looking for enlightenment.
Thirdly, a few LGBTQ+ sexual harassers have been rather more creepy than the average non-LGBTQ+ creeps, and they know how to take advantage of the LGBTQ+ movement. For instance, a few months ago, my middle-aged male colleague once was almost taken advantage of by a young male "genderfluid" person. It was at the end of the shift, and we were going home for lunch to prepare for the afternoon shift. I heard a lot of shouting voices from the department he worked in. It turned out that this genderfluid individual came to him and asked to have sex with him. He, of course, as much as he respected our culture and his duty to his wife and children, refused. The gender fluid person then grabbed his arm and insisted on having sex. My colleague, again, calmly said no. The other person had a breakdown and started calling my colleague a creep who been creeping on them for a long time. Other people heard the shouting and surrounded them. Insults were beginning to be thrown towards my colleague, a few people even went so far as to push my colleague around. It was only until the guards came that the truth was told. That genderfluid person did not come to work that afternoon. Our boss came to us and asked for what happened, he showed us screenshots of the genderfluid person claiming that we ganged up on him, sexually harassed him, insulted him, and attacked him physically. When our boss showed us the chat, the person has already unsent all of their messages.
This behavior is, to be honest, not uncommon at all. Online LGBTQ+ members and supporters have the same behavior when their agendas are questioned, or people dislike certain traits of their personalities, or when their wrongdoings are justly brought out to the light.

2023.06.10 19:50 arrowfromeros So It’s Possible, Huh?
I’ve been a lurker on this subreddit for a few months now. I haven’t really taken my restoration seriously, I’m like a CI-0 or maybe a CI-1. Im not here to dwell on the negatives of circumcision, I’m sure we are all aware of those; but is there anyone that is around this subreddit that started with a very low CI and has atleast flaccid coverage now? And if not, have you seen anyone on any website or blogs that have starting points like mine?
To be honest I just need some inspiration; It just feels a bit impossible for me still, a lot of the time I see people’s restoration here with really nice results, but I find info about their starting point and they already have a lot of inner skin or a loose cut. I’d like to see some pictures of a before and after if that’s possible. To be honest, I’m willing to do it for the long run, I’m lucky I’m in my early twenties hearing about this, so if I give it like 4-5 years I’ll still be in my twenties and I could have a pretty nice foreskin, right? The process of uncircumcision is slow, this I’m completely aware of, but I just want to make sure I’m not kidding myself. Like I said, I’m in it for the long run, but I’d just love to see someone in my position as well, and get to where I want to be.
I have hope, I’m choosing to remain positive about this, there’s no point in being negative when I’m still alive and can make a change. I mean, in 10 years I’ll be 32 and that’s still a prime for men (and women), I could be approaching the horizon of a dilf era with a complete foreskin.. right? Maybe I just want someone to reply to this and say that it’s possible for someone like me, and/or provide some references. This subreddit seems to be really good about providing support in this way. I’m adamant about taking back what’s mine. I’m not even mad at my parents, lack of knowledge doesn’t equate to lack of love, and it doesn’t mean their intent was to hurt me. If they knew they wouldn’t do it. But it’s my job to rewrite the story. It’s possible.. right? If this is a dumb question maybe I’ll take this down, but maybe this will be good for any other lurkers that are literally at square 1.

2023.06.10 19:40 VoidSpace913 Firing range idea proposal
I’m mainly reaching out to any devs that come across this post but I was playing halo infinite a little bit and ended up in the firing range. And I thought to myself. This would be perfect for deep rock to have! I would say it would be the style of doom eternal’s demon pit where r&d developed holographic bugs that would spawn in and you would be able to stay as long as you’d like until you “die”. There would be a scoreboard so other dwarfs in the lobby can compete a little outside of getting shitface drunk and committing slight war crimes down in the mines. Maybe throw in a couple rival drones and plague bugs if you pass the beginning stages. Idk this was kind of a shower thought and I understand it’s too close to release of season 4 for this to happen but I like to dream. Also deep rock devs! A little off topic but I just wanted to say thank you so much! You did something legendary by making a game that United my entire friend group. Even the league of legends player hopped on for a little fun and now he’s spent nearly 50 hours within 2 weeks of me introducing it to him. No other game has done this and it just warms my heart seeing us not sweat swamping in COD anymore. Thank you Developers for everything you do. I will carry deep rock forever in my heart. ROCK AND STONE BROTHERS!⛏️

2023.06.10 19:33 xXAdventXx Advent's Amazing Advice: Dragons of Stormwreck Isle, A Mini-Campaign fully prepped and ready to go! Part 1 Dragon's Rest
Welcome back to Advent's Amazing Advice! The series where I take popular One-Shots, Adventures, Campaigns, etc. and fully prep them for both New and Busy DMs. This prep includes music, ambiance, encounter sheets, handouts, battle maps, tweaks, and more so you can run the best sessions possible with the least stress possible!
It's finally time for our next Fully Prepped Mini-Campaign/Adventure; Dragons of Stormwreck Isle, A level 1-3 Adventure that's sure to make waves! This is the most recent Starter Set and successor to The Lost Mine of Phandelver released by WoTC. In it, your players will sail to the titular Stormwreck Isle, an island shaped by an age of conflict between Chromatic and Metallic Dragons. They'll be able to befriend kobolds, explore fungal grottos, fight those twisted by Orcus, and perhaps save the very island itself!
Have your players create their own characters or jump right in using the Pre-Gens that are built with backstories integrated into the plot!
If you've used my previous notes you'll know that I take Adventures such as these and do all the difficult and time-consuming book-to-session conversions so you don't have to! I do my best to include Ambiance for every scene, custom battle maps, handouts when needed, spell sheets, encounter sheets, and more!
This may all sound familiar, but seeing as this is a Starter Set, I think it's important to reiterate:
Dragons of Stormwreck Isle:

This may all sound familiar, but seeing as this is a Starter Set, I think it's important to reiterate:
- Read the Adventure: I know surprising, but It can be extremely confusing when you don't know where everything leads to.
- Consider the needs of your group: As you've heard or are about to hear a million times, every table is different. If you plan on combining this with a campaign, you'll have to make tweaks here and there.
- These notes aren't meant to be the end-all-be-all: Tweak to your heart's content, and don't consider any of what's written to be set in stone. For me having notes like this helps give me the confidence to go off the rails and follow along with what my players want. It helps me understand where things are meant to go and why. Having that understanding allows me to guide the players and create other new and interesting stories. These are all things that will come with experience, though, so don't freak out and enjoy the journey!

2023.06.10 19:32 Sponsormiplee State of Fortnite
The current state of Fortnite is something that I personally am not a fan of. People say go find a different game, and to be honest there’s a point to that. The problem with that for me is that I have a connection to this game. It’s something that I’ve been experiencing for so long and put time into for so long it’s hard to let go of all that time. I grew up with it so it’s hard to say goodbye. People say you’re blinded by nostalgia, you’re right, I can objectively say that Fortnite chapter 1 was objectively not as good of a game as more recent seasons. I still loved it and miss it of course but it wasn’t as developed, not as polished, and was just generally a little plain. A lot of people like that and I get it, simplicity can be a positive. Chapter 2 for me was peak objectively. I have no nostalgia for Chapter 2, I don’t get emotional when I think of it or think ahh the good old days. That’s how I feel about chapter 1, which I miss but don’t want back that game, I want back that time, and that won’t happen and I don’t think that it should, it was an inferior game. But chapter 2 comes around, that chapter is literally just a good game. Not an era I miss, I don’t care about the era, I miss the actual software of that game. Balanced loot pool, not an absolute flood of collabs. The new skins, while personal opinion, were bangers who fit in to the game and were actually pretty sick. I’m not a huge fan of sbmm so that’s my one problem with it. Fast forward to now. The map is too full of filler and crap that I don’t care about, the map is built for zero build. I know many people like zero build and they play it and they’re happy. That’s great and I’m glad for you that’s just not what my experience is. I like the older maps and think they were fun and great and they didn’t have a bunch of useless crap everywhere like they do now to cater to zero build players. I miss the old guns of chapter 2. Grappler guns, launch pads, helicopters. And the guns in general were just great. You didn’t have OP mobility items like you have recently . And you didn’t have a lack of mobility because you had other not op items that you could keep in your inventory that weren’t on the same level as the new op movement items of the last seasons. Arena had siphon and that’s a great thing too. The mythic items were not overly present in my opinion, there were only one of each on the map and that’s what’ made them special and not absolutely op. Yeah they might’ve been a bit too good but I didn’t care because there were just one and they were fun. Fortnite has gone downhill and it’s not because I’m nostalgic. I also asked what people thought Epic games care about and that they care about only money. That makes sense to me, but a lot of people share my opinion that the game has gone downhill, none of my friends even play this game anymore, it used to be that every single one of my friends was almost always online, it’s not because they’ve gotten jobs or gotten busy just no one likes this game because of the way it’s changed. How does epic stand to make more money because they’ve made their game worse and worse. Wouldn’t it make sense that people who are happy with the game and into it spend more money. I don’t spend money on the game anymore. Seems like all they care about is zero build, but most players don’t play zero build. Thoughts? What are changes you’d support, things you miss. Also, please don’t hate on me, it’s just what I think, I know people disagree with me and that’s fine, I don’t have a problem with other peoples opinions about a game, so please don’t have a problem with mine.

2023.06.10 19:31 EmeraldnDaisies How do ya'll feel about lavander moon quartz?
 | I'm actually really nervous to post this because it was really expensive LOL! submitted by EmeraldnDaisies to Crystals [link] [comments] At first I assumed that LMQ was just a fake thing like andara, but I was surprised to learn there is a real mine in Brazil where it is said to from. There was also a few people who had their specimens officially analyzed and supposedly it came back as a real material. (too lazy to find link but if you Google "is lavander moon quartz real" it comes up pretty easily). Of course theres a lot of fake stuff on the market, not surprisingly. I believe this one I bought might be genuine, however I have read that heat treatment to give it more of the milky Girasol effect is common, so I assume it's probably at least heart treated. Hopefully I'm not a chump and didn't pay a bunch of for glass 🫣🫣 but I think not? |

2023.06.10 19:30 OurAmericanNightmare Humble but Delicious Collection.🥂
 | Howdy! I've never posted a pic of my current collection so I thought I'd share it today just for the hell of it. I'm gonna throw some notes about each below in case someone is looking for something new and awesome to try. I have a fairly "all over the place" palate bit I definitely like things on the sweeter side. As you can see, this isn't one of those braggy "look at my 347 unopened bottles!" posts, I'm just here to share my thoughts. Almost everything here is open and being enjoyed. Pic doesn't show the bottle of Early Times BiB I picked up a few days ago, but other than that it's what I've got going on right now. Let's dig in: submitted by OurAmericanNightmare to whiskey [link] [comments] Bushmills: This is just the standard stuff, my wife and I love it w/Diet Coke and it's great for a few of those and movies on the couch. Great for what it is and I'm planning to dive into their higher-end stuff soon cause I do dig the flavor profile. Johnnie Walker Blue Label- Straight up? Not a huge fan. I'd had some back in 2006 out celebrating with the band I managed in another life and I thought it was smooth, buttery deliciousness. Apparently the fog of memory served poorly, cause I bought this a couple months ago and it's not at all what I remember. Smoky, uncomplicated, and just kinda wack mouthfeel. I'll finish it, but it won't be a staple. Compass Box Hedonism- Now THIS shit is the business! This WILL be a staple, it just hits all the notes I look for in a blended scotch- vanilla, holiday vibes, and a super creamy mouthfeel. Plus, I can snag two bottles of this wonder-liquid for the price of 1 bottle of JWBL, and for my palate this blended Scotch blows it out of the water. Essential stuff. Rabbit Hole Dareringer- I drank a little TOO much of this stuff last night cause holy SHIT I dig this stuff. Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-Sherry bomb! This is a damn fine sweet bourbon, and it's another one that hits all the right notes for me. Sweet, viscous, warm, not-too-conplex-but-still-interesting, and deceptively crushable. If you have even a passing interest in finished bourbons you need to get on board with this one. I'm trying to NOT finish my bottle too fast cause I gotta chill on the spends for a bit but this stuff will be staying on my shelf as a staple for the foreseeable future. Absolutely excellent. William Wolf Pecan Flavored Bourbon- Yeah, yeah- I know. In my defense, my quest for awesome sweet bourbon was always gonna lead me to trying this stuff and it did. You know what though? Fuck the snobbery, cause it's actually really good! I've read some pretty expert-level reviews that feel the same way so I'm not a total wackjob, and it's perfect for sipping here and there in the colder months. Might not be a staple, but I don't regret giving it a shot! Barrell Seagrass- Wow. Super wow. Super holy shitballs wow. This liquid is outstanding, through and through. It runs hot, but if you throw in a few ice cubes and let it breathe for about 15 minutes it chills out and all that apricot, sweet, slight rye spiciness just grows wings and it becomes a whole other beast. And, it holds its viscosity really well with the ice added which is a really great bonus feature cause I usually try my whiskey neat but do most of my drinking with a little ice. Just my personal preference I guess. Regardless, this stuff is killer and I'll likely keep it around too. Sagamore Spirit Double Oak Rye- Everything you've read about this stuff is true. Admittedly I haven't spent a lot of time with it yet, but its damn good. If you close your eyes it's almost like you're drinking a nice, sweet-leaning, oaky bourbon but the rye spice comes in on the finish and really makes itself known. I read all the reviews around here and bourbon and bought two bottles blind. Super glad I did and I can't wait to dig in some more. Why haven't I had more? See next entry.:) Woodford Reserve Double Oaked- THIS stuff right here. Hooooooly shit do I love this stuff. Like the Sagamore Spirit DO rye above, I'd seen the reviews and figured this would be right there in my sweet spot so I went out and bought two bottles blind. One is the standard stuff and the other is a TW store pick. Spoiler alert- they're both fucking EXCELLENT and WRDO is now an all-time fave bourbon and what I'd call my "daily driver". It's rich, sweet, viscous, and not TOO pricey. Plus, it's not crazy allocated or hard to find in any way. This shit's a winner across the board and if your taste is at all similar to mine this needs to be on your shelf at all times. Stellar stuff! OK, I know that's not how most people review shit, but who cares?! We're all different and we all have different tastes, and I'm not trying to become a professional reviewer or anything so I'm just being myself. Screw it. What are my non-whiskey shelfmates you're seeing? Besides the souvenir bottle of Bacardi on the left and the old-ass bottle of wine I'll never drink sitting next to it there's Brinley Shipwreck Vanilla Rum which is delicious, Topper's Coconut Rhum which is also fantastic, Siesta Key Toasted Coconut Rum which is absolutely amazing and my new fave of that type, a Camus VS cognac which is a "daily driver" cognac that rules mixed with lime Bubly, and Martell Cordon Bleu cognac which is fucking phenomenal. So there you have it, my taste is all over the map and I like what I like. Right now I'm definitely getting more into bourbons so that's going to be my focus for a while, but I see a lot more Irish whiskey experimentation on the horizon soon too so we'll see what happens. Oh yeah, one more thing: Early Times Bottled-In-Bond- This stuff is excellent for sub-$30 and honestly I like it more than some $80 + bourbons I've tried too. I cracked my bottle a week ago and couldn't stop leading to a pretty hazy bit super fun night with (thankfully) no hangover the next morning. It's simple, smooth, and currently sitting right next to my WRDO as a daily driver shotgun rider. Proof positive that whiskey doesn't have to be expensive or fancy to be fucking fantastic, and for a $25 LITRE I'll be keeping one or more bottles around for the foreseeable future just like my much-loved WRDO. Alright, I'm done bothering you all for now. Cheers to everyone drinking what they love and helping others find their faves too! 🥂🤘 |
2023.06.10 19:29 Cmarch90 Am I just in the minority?
So I can't have THC, it makes me straight up hallucinate and sick as fuck. I've never had anything with THC and didn't end up puking. The last time I tried was like 3 years ago. Fast forward to about 2 months ago, I started taking CBD gummies (brand: Swag) and I finally felt like maybe I had found something I could take for insomnia/anxiety. I was taking them daily and felt fine. They just mellowed me out. Fast forward yet again to this past week. Whenever I took one, I felt incredibly loopy/out of it. To the point my 13 year old made a comment asking if I had been drinking (sober for almost a year).
Then, last night it got worse. I took my gummy before bed like always and within 20 minutes I felt FUCKED UP. Like room spinning, apparently my youngest son came in my room and I barely even remember it. I hated the way I was feeling and just forced myself to keep my eyes closed and try to fall asleep but my heart was racing and I was freaking out. I hate the feeling of being intoxicated now after quitting drinking. It's the worst. I ended up sitting up and leaning over the bed and vomited. I couldn't physically get up and take myself to the bathroom, I tried and it was like my feet were just bolted to the floor. My 13 yr old heard me puking and brought in a bucket for me. It went on for no less than 2 hours. It got to the point I was just dry heaving and choking on my own gagging, all while being totally out of it panicking thinking I was going to die. It was intense. I started puking up blood (I think it was either from irritation to my throat, or my sinuses drying out but idk for sure) but either way I was non stop puking. Everytime I would feel "better", as soon as I moved even the slightest amount it would come back and I'd be puking again. I had to sit completely still to get any type of relief and for the room to stop sitting. Even blowing my nose was too much movement.
What the fuck gives man. I've been taking these gummies for a couple months now but it's like my body all of sudden doesn't like them? Idk.
And no, it wasn't just a stomach bug or something. I felt perfectly fine up until taking the gummies, and I feel fine today (aside from my throat feeling like it's on fire and body aches from violent vomiting). And it wasn't just throwing up, I felt FUCKED UP. Like I had spent all night chugging vodka on an empty stomach.
I won't be taking them anymore, which sucks because they initially did help with my anxiety. Has anyone else had an experience like mine? I keep reading that CBD doesn't get you fucked up because it doesn't have psychoactive properties or whatever. But it definitely did get me fucked up, in the worst way imaginable.

Then, last night it got worse. I took my gummy before bed like always and within 20 minutes I felt FUCKED UP. Like room spinning, apparently my youngest son came in my room and I barely even remember it. I hated the way I was feeling and just forced myself to keep my eyes closed and try to fall asleep but my heart was racing and I was freaking out. I hate the feeling of being intoxicated now after quitting drinking. It's the worst. I ended up sitting up and leaning over the bed and vomited. I couldn't physically get up and take myself to the bathroom, I tried and it was like my feet were just bolted to the floor. My 13 yr old heard me puking and brought in a bucket for me. It went on for no less than 2 hours. It got to the point I was just dry heaving and choking on my own gagging, all while being totally out of it panicking thinking I was going to die. It was intense. I started puking up blood (I think it was either from irritation to my throat, or my sinuses drying out but idk for sure) but either way I was non stop puking. Everytime I would feel "better", as soon as I moved even the slightest amount it would come back and I'd be puking again. I had to sit completely still to get any type of relief and for the room to stop sitting. Even blowing my nose was too much movement.
What the fuck gives man. I've been taking these gummies for a couple months now but it's like my body all of sudden doesn't like them? Idk.
And no, it wasn't just a stomach bug or something. I felt perfectly fine up until taking the gummies, and I feel fine today (aside from my throat feeling like it's on fire and body aches from violent vomiting). And it wasn't just throwing up, I felt FUCKED UP. Like I had spent all night chugging vodka on an empty stomach.

I’ve never had a bad experience with a delivery driver before, but my order today was wild. I ordered from a place about 30 minutes out for my wife and I and set a tip for 25% for an $70 order. When my driver arrived, they tossed my food onto the ground and I could hear them talking about how my tip was shit, how they were keeping some of my food because of that, and other rude comments. The delivery driver then emptied the trash in their car onto mine and my neighbours yards. I’ve contacted support but god knows if that will resolve any future issues with this driver.
I feel like 25% is a decent tip but usually I add extra after or tip extra in cash for longer drives because I know gas and car maintenance is expensive, but this honestly threw me for a loop. I don’t want to be rude back and take away or lessen the tip, but I don’t feel that I should be giving someone almost $20 for that experience

2023.06.10 19:16 halfhumanhalfgoddess Story time!
This story is about when I went to school picnic as a teacher for the first time. I woke up at 4 am got ready. I drank a glass of Bournvita and went to school. I reached the school at 5 am. I boarded the bus at 5:30. As soon as I boarded the bus. I started feeling dizzy. I felt nauseated. All the windows of the bus were closed as it was too cold and dark outside. Slowly most of the kids and teachers started feeling nauseated. One of the students offered me a toffee saying it'll make me feel better. Another student of mine asked me keep my head on their lap and rest. I felt so weak, I couldn't even stand on my two feet. I let my hair down as my hair was wet. I put my head on the lap of that student and curled up in one of the seats. But I couldn't even rest in one place because the bus kept moving and I kept feeling dizzy and nauseated. The driver told, to open up all the windows. It had been half an hour but I hadn't thrown up until I saw a teacher throwing up. I felt like throwing up. I put my head outside the window. It was too windy outside. I threw up and the whole glass of Bournvita I had drank earlier was in my hair. I can't even describe how many emotions I felt at that moment. I washed my hair there itself with the bottle of water. I felt better whenever I got off the bus but I felt dizzy when I got on the bus. I felt shitty the whole day. The only thing nice was my students taking care of me which was the opposite of what was supposed to happen. The only places I remember visiting is the cave in porbandar where Krishna and some bear-man maybe fought each other and Gandhiji's home.
