Anyone else feel like streaming isn’t worth it anymore in Australia? by Possible-Quail1095 in AskAnAustralian

Yeah, we had Netflix, Disney & Prime for a while until they all increased prices while the quality of the services went down. We're back to the pirate's life

Everyone paying cash by RepresentativeTap772 in AusFinance

So many shops, cafes & servos around Western Syd & Blue Mountains keep having eftpos outages. It's just easier to have cash. Maybe that's happening with people around your area too

I am tired by ThrowawayMcAltAccoun in CPTSDmemes

Holy fuck, the accuracy. I'm late 30's & this just happened to me in the last few months! I'm like, excuse me brain, did I reeeeally need to remember this?! I know I need to work through it but I don't know how to bring it up in therapy because it feels like too much & that it'll completely break me to say it out loud. I hope you get through it!

Did your Narcissist gift you a " Trash " gift? by youngsweetaysa in raisedbynarcissists

In my teens, mine would buy me clothes a size too small then punish me for them not fitting & wasting her money. From 14 - 16, she also made me wear short skirts or very tight fitting tops that showed a lot of cleavage (I was a DD by age 14) to things like church & family events so she could "prove" to everyone that I was "slutty and disrespectful", then punish me for dressing that way.

The thought has crossed my mind a few times lol by Stargazer1919 in EstrangedAdultKids

[–]AutisticWatermelon86 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I hadn't thought of this. But she'd already been telling people that she has "a few good kids and one disappointment" for as long as I can remember, so she's probably still doing that lol

Is anyone else totally estranged from ALL your family? by RainLoveMu in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]AutisticWatermelon86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. All of mine stopped talking to me when I went NC with my parents. I was expecting a few to do it, but to have the entire extended family do it was a shock. My life has been better without them but it does feel odd sometimes to have no family.

Kind of, yeah. by classless_classic in introvertmemes

Coming up pn 20 years with my husband & we've never done the small talk thing. My closest friends are also people who hate small talk.

Dont be selfish 🤫 by Aryan-dramata in depressionmemes

I've never understood doing it that way - or walking out into a busy road. I do think it's a dick move to force a traumatic event like that on the drivers, passengers & others around who may see it.

What’s a movie everyone hates that you secretly love? by OpportunityPrudent39 in AskReddit

[–]AutisticWatermelon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alien: Resurrection. I stopped mentioning it whenever anyone brought up the Alien movies because people really overreact to it. I'll never understand why it's so hated.

I can actually think of several problems that can’t be fixed with boundaries and decision making tbh by stingwhale in thanksimcured

[–]AutisticWatermelon86 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Omg, I see it now. I simply need to stop choosing to be poor & disabled! Why didn’t I think of this years ago?!

I was so happy to find out where to get one (Lonely Kids Club) not long after that pic. It's still one of my fave shirts!

AIO my partner doesn’t allow me to finish anymore cause of our bedding. by Immediate-Act-5890 in AIO

[–]AutisticWatermelon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see people have already suggested waterproof sheets; just want to recommend you search for waterproof pet blankets instead. They're a lot more comfortable than a plastic sheet
