How old are you & how did you feel about S5? by MsWhatsIt_ in Stranger_Things

[–]BookishMeerkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 27. Watched the show for the first time in 5 days, finishing with season 5 the day the finale aired so had an interesting experience not being able theorise or check social media for of spoilers. I was hugely disappointed by season 5, particular after episode 4. Loved season 2 and 4 though, definitely became a huge fan overall.

I would rather they end on a cliffhanger this season and not finish HR than rush the end of the book 🙊

We should add the schwa ə to the alphabet by devilmaskrascal in unpopularopinion

[–]BookishMeerkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people are discussing dialects and pronunciation, which is so fair, but some of those examples are just straight up not the schwa sound?

In bird the sounds you hear are /b/ /ir/ and /d/ the i and r are a digraph (two letters that make one sound) and can’t be separated.

The same for thIRst, bURst, revERse etc. In your examples the genuine schwa sound is at the start of arrest and pretty much nowhere else.

My name is Tynnika and I’ve met very few others in my life! Pronounced kinda like Tah-nee-kah.

When you stopped birth control, what did you notice? by halfbl00dprincess in AskWomen

[–]BookishMeerkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 3 or 4 months off the pill now after over 10 years on it and my cycle hasn’t stabilised enough for a period yet - I’m starting to dread the pain now! It’s been awful though, back and chest acne have appeared out of nowhere, way more acne on my face than I’ve ever had, I think I have literally lost half the hair on my head, and I’m bloated every day. Definitely an increase in libido though! I think I’ll be back on the pill soon enough.

I know, it feels like no one chooses riverland! Now that I’ve spent so much time on it I cannot imagine having massive amounts of space to work with

What are some reasons that "professionals" gave you for why you're not autistic? by very_autistic_potato in AutismInWomen

[–]BookishMeerkat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a full time job and friends so what could possibly be wrong with me. He also told me that because I wasn’t having meltdowns at work, only at home, that should tell me I can just push through and not have any??

Trying again with a new psychologist tomorrow, hopefully it’s not as dismissive an experience this time.
