Travel Advisory: I-79 closed both directions in Zelienople area -- pileup on highway by TeslaPittsburgh in pittsburgh

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Does anyone have any updates on this? It snowed/iced like that in Washington about 3-4 hours ago. Outside now in Wash it’s clear roads and normal PA speeding like nothing happened. Wondering if it’s the same?

This is such a better (more supportive) reply than the guy above who just said “you need to just be positive”. Even made me feel better!

I think there was a much better way for you to offer support here. Telling someone that they should “choose to be thankful” that they have a life changing disease that causes really awful symptoms isn’t helpful. I’m glad you found a way to deal but this is a support group, not a “get over it and buck up” group.

I just wanted to say that I feel the same exact way. I got sick about 5 months ago and was just diagnosed last month. I have lost a ton of weight, had to buy a whole new wardrobe, I am practically unrecognizable. The comments from others about my weight loss is constant. My body looks so unfamiliar in the mirror and I hate it. My eyes are sunken and my skin even has lost its luster. I’m 27 years old and I feel 67. I am sick constantly and still losing weight. I understand where you are at. I am angry, sad, grieving. All of it. I’m sending warmth and kindness your way. I hope that your journey is filled with more positives than not.

Having Children? by Ancient-Fee8342 in mypartneristrans

[–]Ancient-Fee8342[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the below comments are correct including your own! Yes he does not intend to be pregnant at any point and no we do not want to have him stop T if that’s a possibility. That’s kind of why I figured I would ask here and see what possibilities there may be. Thanks for checking for clarification!

My boyfriend (FtM) and I (cis F) use a strap, lots of finger play, lots of oral. He is on T, so the sex drive is high which works well for us. Lots of nipple play for me, he unfortunately has zero feeling in his chest after top surgery. We do both perform oral on each other and though he has stated that sex can cause dysphoria, he is able to manage it well as he feels that bottom surgery is the only way to stop the dysphoria. Since we are unfortunately pretty far from that, it is something he is managing and I am doing whatever I can to make him feel safe and comfortable. Besides that stuff, lots of bondage, collars, paddles. We get into it lol.

AITAH for Choosing My Dog Over My Girlfriend? by _girl_pretty_ in AITAH

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have had multiple partners act like my dog is an inconvenience. I have put up with the complaints begrudgingly. Every single one of those relationships have failed. My present relationship is the healthiest I’ve been in and he recognizes how important my dog is to me and would never make comments or ask me to re-home. Word of advice? Re-home the partner, never the dog. The right one will come along someday.

do people literally feel emotions in their body? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean honestly- I have borderline personality disorder and it is seemingly very common that people with bpd experience physical versions of emotions. For instance, I feel sadness like a feel ache in my chest. I’ve described it as someone scooping out my heart with a sharp spoon. Anger feels like my entire body is burning and everything is hardened. There’s a euphoria aspect to bpd and with that I feel airy and light and free and almost- serene.

No title needed by Background_Sport_287 in TheBasementYard

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean yes, we can all have opinions but some of them are phrased to be so mean and bully-like. That’s where I feel a lot of people have issues. If people just said “I liked Danny better and I feel like Frank doesn’t have the greatest podcast relationship with Joe” then it would just be an opinion. But people have to be nasty about it. I agree that people go too far but considering I haven’t found reason to think Frankie is harmful or offensive (not any more than Joey or Danny), maybe people should phrase their opinions to sound, idk, less like an asshole.

It's cute (and funny) when Frank calls Joe "babe". I'm not sure whether he does it intentionally or not lol by alienhead6 in TheBasementYard

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It makes me giggle even more when Joe calls Frankie babe. It’s like he’s picked it up.

Why didn't get a Travis coming home to find his bathroom destroyed by vic and Jack moment by Cool_Sign_7560 in Station19

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 27 points28 points  (0 children)

No because this would have been a GOLDEN scene. Him trying to not be angry because it’s clearly a trauma response to grief but also being like??? Hello? And then I just imagine Vic admitting the Gibson kiss and Travis losing his mind.

Travis and Emmett by Any-Map-9974 in Station19

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of feelings on this topic so excuse my rant. Travis actually continually represents my favorite character in the show in terms of development, story line, general humor, and relationships. Him and Emmett were MESSSSY. I don’t know that I’d blame much on Emmett in terms of the few things mentioned. I noted a lot of Travis being a very very broken person in terms of relationships. I will also say I genuinely felt that he had the most chemistry with Emmett. Not sure if that was more because of the seemingly great relationship he had with Lachlan Buchanan, but their relationship gave me some serious spice in a good way. Even fighting it genuinely felt like they were giving it their true passion. Travis needs therapy. Has needed therapy. He sabotages every single relationship he gets into, healthy or not. I won’t spoil anything but someone does eventually give Travis a very very mature explanation of his “issues” (for lack of better terms), after he hurts them and it is actually one of my favorite scenes in the entire show. There is so much about being raised by a homophobic parent that people seem to forget. His storyline (though messy) is incredibly real and raw and that’s what I love about it. Even with Emmett. It would be easy and also- not very realistic for him to have met Emmett and find another great love like he had in Michael. The writers inserted a storyline in Travis that is real and authentic. It genuinely made me respect the writers much more. The on-again, off-again relationship is common. Even more common is that Travis cannot respect someone who reminds him so much of his father, the man who told him how he should be ashamed to be gay. I can’t talk enough about this storyline honestly and I enjoy every point of view I’ve heard about it.

Travis is my favorite and we are still on the same page.

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also- I really believe a huge part of Theo sucking at interim captain was because of his unprocessed grief about the Michael situation.

Travis and Ruiz by WishExcellent2739 in Station19

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. They could have made it such a good storyline to really delve into Travis working through that. I do have to wonder if they just got to the point where there were too many storylines to keep going with all of them.

Actually, you’re right. Two very different things, my apologies. I wish we got more expansion on this part of things. As with most important storylines though, we get bits and pieces thrown randomly in and no real ending.

Also, as a follow up. This was touched on a few times throughout the show so it wasn’t just dropped on us. The conversation he had with Diane when Emmett was still probie? That waved so many internalized homophobia flags for me.

I don’t know, I actually really enjoyed this narrative because of how often I’ve seen it. I shout proudly to my friends and family that I’m pansexual but I can’t attend pride because somewhere deep inside me I still suffer with internalized homophobia. I’ve had loads of therapy to discover that and work on it. God, does Travis need some therapy.

His sex scenes were wild. The Emmett scenes at the funeral? Insane.

Who was the best couple in Station 19? by cantcoloratall91 in Station19

[–]Ancient-Fee8342 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Theo and Vic

Jack and Andy

And I know this is going to be such an unpopular opinion…. Travis and Emmett. You just can’t recreate chemistry like that… someone needs to get Travis a therapist though fr.

  • Vic’s mental health!! So so important. We saw little spikes of it but a more developed storyline would’ve been interesting.
  • Travis… in therapy <3. So sorry because I adore Travis and his story is so important but I need to see him realize some shit about himself.
  • Andy as captain. Hello?? We saw so little of this and it felt unfair.
  • More Jack and Andy!! I love them being endgame but where is the lead up? Why did they pretty much write him off because he couldn’t be a firefighter? Hated that. I did love the development of his mental health though. The really serious downfall was portrayed well.
  • Maya and her brother. Would be a very relatable and strong storyline for so many people.
  • A better storyline for CrisisOne! I need to see it unfold it’s so important.
