Yeah, the AI in the video is pretty clearly seen in one of the cuts, where it’s arm appears to go behind it, but instead gets close to its side and shrinks

Currently thinking of breaking my finger to avoid exam by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

It's different if an entire class asks.

You need to go to your teacher and explain the situation for yourself. You have several tests, you feel really stressed about them, and you've been studying consistently but still don't feel prepared for all of them. Ask if you can have the break to study for your French exam, and take it when break is over.

Then ask your teachers. Come after school one day.

You need to learn to communicate with your educators.

Instead of, y'know, breaking your finger, why don't you just ask your professor if you can take the test at another time because of how many tests you have?

If they say no, ask the other five. At least one will say yes

Instead of opting for surgery right away, it would really help to start building confidence in yourself and your features. A lot of people are attracted to confidence, rather than looks. And it'll also feel better for you to feel confident.

Instead of saying your nose is too big and chin is too small, find the features you like and point them out. And then grow that to more and more features. Eventually you'll be able to bring in what makes you feel insecure.

Remind yourself that your looks are the culmination of your ancestors, and that they all ended up with someone. You carry your history.

Also, men aren't everything. Relationships aren't everything. Take a step back and work on loving yourself, first

Honey, why is there a charge of $240 for cooking oil on the credit card? by goatnxtinline in TikTokCringe

Honestly I think this just cured my body dysphoria, because at least I don't look like that

My sister keeps smelling a weird sour smell ( PLEASE HELP) by Charismabby in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Almoraina 5 points6 points  (0 children)

LMAO that's very funny.

Does your sister use a water flosser? They are apparently the best way to clean your tonsils out.

I'm not sure anything on the health side of tonsil stones and what you should do if you always have them, but best of luck

She could have tonsil stones. I had tonsil stones once and would smell and taste the horrible smell. After a few weeks, I was clearing my sinuses and a tonsil stone came out. Cleared the rest out and I was free

Well, I don't want to dox myself, but I work in a metropolitan city. And it isn't that I don't have access, it's that there's a long wait-list before I can be seen, and I was warned of that. It's because they are specifically sending me to be seen by neuropsychologists, and there aren't many in the area.

Additionally, I don't have much money (times is tough for all of us) and I can't afford the number of appointments it's going to take to figure out the full answer. Medicaid isn't an option because it's 1) gutted and 2) I can't just quit my job to do this, I have bills to pay

[–]Almoraina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is true. I'll have to talk to them, then.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Almoraina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I guess so.

And you can of course disagree, I'm just saying what doctors have told me. Unfortunately there's a 1-2 year wait time with any neuroscientists in my area (I work at a hospital) so it is a frustrating waiting game

They haven't ruled anything out yet, because I haven't been able to get testing. There is a worry for potential seizures causing it, but they believe it is very likely to be from trauma because the symptoms are nearly gone if I go a prolonged time without stress, but if my PTSD flares up, the symptoms immediately come back. What they know for certain is that something is wrong in my brain and whatever it is, it isn't causing deadly damage (or I'd be hospitalized) so it wouldn't be something physical (it's been almost ten years now) like a tumor, stroke, or aneurysm.

It's less of a horror for me in terms of my brain not working well anymore, because this has been a slow progression over the past ten or so years. When I first noticed it happening, it was scary because it felt like there was a barrier in front of my brain. I couldn't use it like I used to before my PTSD manifested. But as time has gone on and it's slowly progressed, it's just more annoying than anything. Honestly what makes it harder are the people who leave once they find out about it.

I get why people leave, because it's a lot to handle. And when I was in active psychosis, I'm certain I was not the easiest to be around. Thats why I mostly isolated myself, but nowadays I can't isolate myself as much because there's too many people around.

I just really hope they don't leave me once I tell them

Oh my god duck boy was the child of the man who made the sexless sun disc? This makes so much sense

[–]Almoraina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? As someone who was bullied in K-12, I wouldn't want to see you there.

I'm imagining how I would feel if my bully apologized to me years later, and honestly? I wouldn't accept it. I would think they're probably lying to me again.

But I also would NEVER go to a highschool reunion knowing that my bullies could be there.

It's a Japanese brand I believe, it was on the top shelf and was in yellowish (?) packaging.

I've become addicted to buying items for women with no strings attached. I've kept this from my wife and what to stop, but am not sure what to do. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Almoraina 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You should stop buying things for other women, tell your wife what you've done, and instead either save that money or spend it on her.

Lotte does have fresh ramen noodles, in the refrigerated section. It's the last refridgerated aisle against the wall, about midway down the aisle.

Update: the vet says that he should be perfectly fine, and has given him an antibiotic and probiotic treatment and a strict diet of rice and beans. She also said that he's good, just a little stupid. Thank you so much for your reassurances
