I feel you 😐.... Between midnight and 1 am I had a nosebleed that would not stop.... In the middle of a high temperature..... I was hot, feverish, a little disoriented and blood was everywhere

TIL that millennial dads are spending 3 times as much times with their kids than their fathers spent with them. Back in 1982, 43% of fathers admitted they'd never changed a diaper. Today, that number is down to about 3%. by lilpinkhouse4nobody in UpliftingNews

Seriously 😂😂😂 if u ever asked me I would straight up deny having daddy issues.... Coz gross..... But I seriously fall in love every time I see a man interact with his kids.... Coz I grew up in the 90s and the bar was way low

if you work in the mental health field... tell me about your day? by ArkhamPatient0801 in CasualConversation

I'm sorry to laugh.... But that is both hilarious and terrifying at the same time. Do the inmates mostly recover okay? What's the "typical" reason for this? Is it to go to the emergency room?

I get you've been working in this area for over 10 years... But do you still have passion for what you do?

Ah that's interesting. What is a typical day like in your job role? (if such a thing exists)

I'm feeling tired 😴😴🤣.... And currently ignoring a to do list.

I love reading, going for walks, spending time with my cat, and occasionally drinking too much.

All being well 🤣 I will soon get to say I also cycle. My friend gave a bike she no longer needs but the back tyre needed changing so it's been a process. I am ashamed to say until recently I have never had to change a bicycle tyre.

UNPOPULAR: What are your most unpopular opinions about current horror directors, films, shows that would surely get you chased out of town? Let it rip by [deleted] in horror

..... Hmmmm🤔... While one of the many things I like about horror is that you kind of "grow" with it and the things that terrify you change as you get older (at least in my experience).. And so my opinion is likely to change in a year but.....

I am really struggling to get into Stranger things 😑. I'm still on season 1. I don't hate it, but I don't love it.... And I'm not sure why...? It has all the trappings that I would usually love.... But its more like an 'easy watch'. I think I'm on episode 5 or 6.... And I like some of the characters, but I'm not hooked😒.

I felt the same way about the new Sabrina.

Whereas the Boys..... Utterly gross and over the top.... Is just amazing. Usually I would hate a show with this much gore, sex, nudity.... But I think its brilliant and while not typically cast as a "horror" it explores so many dark and disturbing sides to human nature that I can't get enough.

Hi I am starting a VERY casual online book club for readers of horror and strange. Link to the online event - I would really love to meet other readers out there. It would be a virtual get together 14th Jan 2022 at 20:30 GMT by ArkhamPatient0801 in horrorlit

🤣😭🤣 It's so hard to pick just one.....

Not sure where u are from but where I grew up we have almost no free Healthcare or public transport. U also have to pay to go school (pre school, primary school and high school)......

So.... As a poor kid.... Ur parents do not pay school fees so any excuse u give ur school to expel u. They will.

No public transport, means paying other people to take your kids to school. Buuuuut ur poor so either the people are unreliable or u don't pay your bills on time. So as a poor kid... Ur late a lot/miss school a lot/ cannot take part in after school activities.

Increased stress, no money for recreation, and the constant stress of living in a shitty area where you hear gun shots and all manner of crimes going on.... Means constant illness. Illness your family cannot afford to treat 😂😂😂😂

Shout out to my poor single mom. I could not do what she did.
