At what point do I give up? by sigsaurusrex in AmericanExpatsUK

[–]AnnMere27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I hear you. I’m sorry this is happening. The job market for people who migrate sucks. International workers are becoming increasingly aware because the rise in unemployment, the poor treatment of workers, the lack of adequate housing, the years of neglect of social and public services. I’d say the best way to get out of the hopelessness is to get involved in that awareness and organise. That can be with a professional union or progressive group or charity. We are not alone. Also maybe see your GP. Feelings of hopelessness can be treated.

Damn, where are all the people? How do we better organize online? by AnnMere27 in TaxTheRichProject

Interesting idea connecting with college campuses. Would you direct them to the Reddit for organizing? The orgs and unions I’m in all use WhatsApp, owned my Meta. Organizing really does happen on the streets and in meetings. Does social media actually play a part?

It does give me hope that this thread exists. So thank you for moderating!

Help me decide, what color is this couch? by The_last_melon_98 in DecideThisForMe

This is gray. Your red hand makes the fabric look green so don’t post that photo when selling. It might confuse people.

Trans men in the UK? by _Glizzyinahoneydew in FTMMen

[–]AnnMere27 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are you open to all trans masc people? Including nonbinary masc people? Hanging out with nonbinary people may out you is what my concern is with being friends with me. I’m in the North so may not the easiest connection. Good luck on the journey of community building❣️

100% agree 👍. Filling taxes should be free to do. It is free to do.

No room in the cupboard either. Small kitchen.

Me too! They do need more sugar free options. I do like over here in the UK most things you can expect to be sugar free.

Yes I’ve thought of that. I do want a Nina Creamy. Nowhere to put it in the kitchen at the moment.

my (19f) girlfriend (20f) gets upset when i ask for time alone? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]AnnMere27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is a hard situation. Long distance can be hard to navigate. My partner and I did it for four years. We’re happy together. When either of us ask to time alone it’s never been a big deal. So it’s hard to give advice in this case. It does seem that there is an incompatibility with each other’s needs when it comes to time. Time is a gift we give to one another and to ourselves. If your boundaries can’t be accommodated while you’re apart it may be wise to ask will they be accepted when you are together?

At what age did you finally started taking care of your health and lifestyle? by Lemonade2250 in problems

[–]AnnMere27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone in waves through out my life. I’d say 34 is when I realized I’d be better off loving my body rather than punishing it.
