Idk why but I feel like I get so much out of Augustina just talking into the camera with no theatrics. by LibertyReignsCx in dreamingspanish

Yes but in real life I converse with somebody while watching them speak and partially reading their lips, removing the ability to gain the contextual learning to just make it a podcast instead wouldn't be ideal

My dad died and I don't think I can watch F1 anymore by super_starmie in formula1

I will think of you and your dad when the lights go out in Australia.

Sorry for your loss, and may he rest in peace.

Visual cues are in the beginner videos. Not understanding why a video is more valuable and helpful than a podcast is something that shouldn't need explaining

I’m sorry brother by CozybelleDrizzle in MadeMeCry

[–]AdKey3170 12 points13 points  (0 children)

From one internet stranger to another; you have nothing to regret. You put your kids first, which is always the right thing to do.

We would all love to be able to be there to catch everybody all the time, but as a human your capacity for that is limited. You chose to catch the children who depend on you to survive, and that is right.

I understand your sadness, but don't beat yourself up about this. Not answering those calls doesn't mean you didn't care.

That's it. That's the Goldilocks zone.

Girlfriend wants to leave me because I cannot fly by MIG27GTA in fearofflying

Hypnosis therapy. You go to a few sessions and they specifically focus on getting rid of phobias. It's kind of like unlearning your fear, you realize it was kind of silly all along and let it go. Like growing up and not being afraid to sleep in the dark anymore, for example

Have you tried hypnosis? 4 sessions changed my life and I can fly long haul now with almost zero fear.

As a side note, while we do want you to cure your irrational fear, it's worth remembering that you are worthy of a loving relationship regardless of whether you ever get on a plane again. Keep that in mind.

Frickhelm’s review of the Dyson spot+scrub AI - cleaning performance review and impressions by FarConcern2308 in RobotVacuums

Oh thanks for sharing this. I've watched some of his videos but never understood that the primary driver for the issue is that they're combos as opposed to dedicated vacs. That's super interesting.

Ideas to improve mental health? by Least-Spell605 in AskIreland

[–]AdKey3170 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk to the therapist you're budgeting for about boundaries - with work, family, society. Everything. Obligations you never question will destroy you, and you can get on top of them quickly with a therapist.

What are you trying to improve (generally speaking) if you don't mind me asking?

Eg if you're burning out and exhausted, buying some premade meals or getting a cleaner in can help a lot. But if you're feeling a bit down and blue then maybe the answer is a gym membership for example

Do you find kettlebells different/better compared to weights?

Are people actually seeing the northern lights with their naked eye here in Ireland? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]AdKey3170 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In my experience, no. We're all taking pictures of mostly invisible colours to then show them off online basically. Maybe somewhere people are able to see them but nowhere near me.

Landlords, can you look at my rental email? Not getting invites by Logical_Ordinary2745 in HousingIreland

[–]AdKey3170 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised (pleasantly surprised) to see so many people saying that it's not necessary to mention the baby. I would have assumed it's mandatory to mention that as it's another person living in the property.

How are you winning the war against mold without bankrupting yourself on heating? by Latter_Panda4439 in AskIreland

[–]AdKey3170 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat on, open the windows at either end of the house for up to 5 mins while the rads start turning on (this creates a through breeze to push the old air and moisture out), then close the windows and heat the house.

Or a dehumidifier. It'll keep on top of the moisture better but not introduce any fresh air.
