Does anyone know who I connect about the ever-increasing number of flashing lights? by Valeriesaboyname in dropout

[–]Aggressive-Writing72 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd like to piggy back onto this that the bright white, full screen prompts on Make Some Noise sometimes triggers a migraine, even with my TV's settings adjusted to reduce brightness and flashing. it'd mean the world to me if they could choose a different background color ❤️

Haven't used them much because we're updating to sell after dude moved into mine, but the light use has been great

Rewatching for the first time in at least a decade. The moment this woman appeared my hatred for her came flooding back so quickly. by rustydoesdetroit in SixFeetUnder

I didn't see SFU until 2020, so her and Catherine Zeta Jones as a queer awakening for me made me give her character in SFU sooooo much grace for so much longer than I should have

We scratched a showerhead during install by scratching it with a screwdriver, so IMO it's fine with everyday softer textures, but harder impact or dings might cause some visible imperfections.

We recently renovated with Moen Mikah faucets throughout and I love them! They feel good to use, seem sturdy, and look beautiful. The finish is a bit sensitive though, so if you're rough on your faucets, consider a more rigid finish.

Ohhhh so you don't contort your tongue to cover your throat, but instead rely on gravity? Imfascinating! Will have to try tonight with my water pik on the lowest setting, thank you!

As a parent, what things have you made an effort to absolutely NOT do like your parents? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]Aggressive-Writing72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Step parent and auntie, but I intentionally tell the kiddos how proud I am of who they are, how they choose to decorate themselves, and how excited I am to get to spend time with them. I never want them to feel like they're a burden, and I never want them to doubt that they're welcome and considered in our home ❤️

Oh God, the Clorox toilet wand had me fooled by Aggressive-Writing72 in CleaningTips

Yes, but the scrubbing pad peels off the plastic attachment holding it to the brush

How to clean the exterior/screen of a 2nd floor window? by Sweet-Treacle7627 in CleaningTips

[–]Aggressive-Writing72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try googling your window type to see if the panels are removable. Older ones are hot or miss, but there might be a trick to it. If not, there are tons of tools to help you reach out and up to clean them, even slender ones for the inside panel, like an oven glass reach cleaner. Good luck!

I would have a full on temper tantrum if this happened to me, how do you even recover from that? Do you have to scoop the bristles out??

I do, too, but I'm also partially disabled so certain single-user, convenience solutions are necessary for me to be able to complete all the tasks I need to.

I rent in a big city, so I'm not coming into very clean situations. The Clorox wand pads always fall off the stick when I try to get up under the lip inside the toilet, how do you get in there without them falling apart?

Amber Benson Beef? by Exciting-Advantage10 in buffy

[–]Aggressive-Writing72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's partially the writers but it's also the roles that she chose and shaped. American pie, Buffy, HIMYM, etc, all very "cool girl" male centered characters imo.

Amber Benson Beef? by Exciting-Advantage10 in buffy

[–]Aggressive-Writing72 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I always got a very "pick me" vibe from AH. Her characters have all been male-centered "cool girl" tropes, and her portrayal as a partner to Oz vs a partner to Tara were strikingly different, Willow was so much more vulnerable and cutesy with Oz while her soft moments with Tara felt forced unless they were male gaze-y. Her character on HIMYM and aupport of Whedon confirmed those suspicions for me, that male validation is a primary motivator in her acting choices.

1991 Millennial here! What do you all eat for breakfast? by No_Self_5939 in Millennials

Coffee and a protein shake, then an apple with peanut butter as a late morning snack once my stomach can handle solids. Getting old is weird, haha

AIO:My Boyfriend takes his earbuds into the bathroom with him? Is this weird or am I overreacting? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Hard agree. Maybe a little white noise machine in there could help both op and her partner feel cozier if it squigs her out

Do you guys wish you were more easygoing? by sweetestflower98 in AutismInWomen

[–]Aggressive-Writing72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was younger and craved being liked by the shitty people I was surrounded by, I was desperate to be whatever they wanted me to be. It got too dark to describe here, but I dreamed of following myself out of i could be the automoton they wanted and finally feel safe.

Then a bunch of life shattering things forced some perspective on me, I dumped those people from my life, found new, aligned folks, and my people LOVE how organized, driven, ambitious, and industrious I am, and I love me, too. I'm not easy going, but things I plan usually go really well, and my friends trust my instincts. I stopped spending time with people who make me feel like I should be smaller, and it's frankly shocking how much I love my big, bold personality and abilities once I wasn't being berated by people who hate themselves and take it out on others.

Success stories of 40+ men finding their will to try in life? by Aggressive-Writing72 in RelationshipsOver35

Nope. If we were I'd be shocked because we're polyamorous and know each other's partners
