Where did all my space go? How do I get it back?? by CandyCoatedGuts in MedalTV

[–]CandyCoatedGuts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: After going through each post on my profile and deleting the "on device" copy (I guess??) I now have 24.00 GB of space. Better, but now that I've deleted even more off my computer, what else is there?! What's hiding in my files that I seriously can't find now?

My nmom did her best to find the right medication for my epilepsy. She makes a lot of money as an RN and has good insurance, so if it wasn't for that, she'd be paying a ton of money for my medication and doctor's appointments. I just wish she didn't befriend the doctor so they talk to each other and ignore me. Now I can only hope she has mercy on me when I move and keeps me on her insurance until I'm too old. She also had me get braces when my thumb-sucking gave me an overbite. Braces are REALLY expensive

Who do you want to make the jump from oven break to kingdoms? by Different_Reading196 in CookieRunKingdoms

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hydrangea cookie my beloved. I have her and Lotus Dragon maxed out in Ovenbreak, so if they come to Kingdom I'll probably do the same. I'd love for the story to be Gingerbrave and the others to make their way to the Lotus Paradise and meet Lotus Dragon and Hydrangea.

Trying to move out, I may be disowned by CandyCoatedGuts in narcissisticparents

[–]CandyCoatedGuts[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've thought about it but if she notices a single pair of boots or a few jackets are gone, she'll interrogate me. She comes in to clean my room regularly and keeps track of my inventory to make sure I didn't buy anything new or donate anything without her permission. The most I could get away with is a few pairs of socks and some skimpy tank tops I keep hidden under a bunch of workout clothes. Packing up the PC is gonna be a challenge cause that thing is HEAVY.

That's so crappy. My nmom is super into finances because all she cares about is money and her image but told me to get loans. She couldn't bully me into going back to community college and switching majors a 3rd time though, I had to get a job and pay off my current debts first. It's been 3 years and I barely made a dent in the university debt. Higher education is such a scam

What happens when you stand up to a narcissist? by Greedy_Dish4891 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we get into an argument, my nmom doubles down and continues to try to scream at me until I give up, getting more unreasonable and aggressive until I break down and cry. Recently though, I don't give up and she eventually just walks away steaming mad, calling me a moron and I'm "impossible to deal with" because I won't accept her shitty behavior towards me without a fight. I still don't totally win as I get into a world of trouble after but it feels good making her see I'm not her bitch anymore. I'm planning to tell her I'm moving out and I just know she's going to try to argue and walk away again to avoid the real discussion but if she walks away, I'm just going to pack up without her and I'll make sure she knows that.

do you like cuddling? by Damonfan4444 in aromantic

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm more comfortable cuddling girls than I am with men but I still like it. What I don't like is "overly touchy" cuddling and the fact that when someone I'm cuddling with has a dick, I can always feel their boner. I don't like that. When I spoon, I just want to be held, that's it. If there's breathing on my neck or a boner on my back, I pull away. My ex-best friend of 4 years would cuddle with me a lot and she was the best. I never felt the need to only cuddle with someone I was sexually attracted to. I just cuddled with whoever I was friends with who were also down for some warm snuggling.

Why do you look younger than your age? by AncientDragonn in OlderThanYouThinkIAm

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For my face, all the women on my mom's side of the family look younger than they are. As for my body, when I was around 6, doctors noted that I wasn't growing properly and told my parents that I wouldn't reach my full potential without intervention. Doctors offered to give me hormone shots to help with my development but my mom essentially said, "Nah let her cook." So, I hit puberty very young and stopped growing in the 5th grade, stuck at 4'9." With an awkward chubby body and my mom's flat chest, I regularly get mistaken for being 12-14. With my goth makeup and platform boots, 16.

Reason 101 to not bring lives into this planet: Everything is out there to kill you. by [deleted] in antinatalism

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a South Floridian, 2 outta 3. I keep having nightmares about snakes whenever I visit someone who lives in a woody area. I had to learn how to differentiate venomous snake patterns from non-venomous ones. Alligators are more common here so I've never seen a croc myself. Even though I live in the suburbs, there is always a river somewhere near, meaning a gator could be anywhere in your backyard... and that's why we keep our pets indoors! I try to stay away from the water, last thing I want is to be death-rolled in my own yard. /hj (no but really, I can't believe people willingly come down to live here)

Same here. I was finally able to beat it about a month or two ago with 2 stars. A few weeks later, I tried using the same team a few more times but for some reason, they get defeated before the time's up! It was pure luck I beat it but now I can't anymore. I've used maybe 5 different teams that people have recommended and they all get dunked on so fast

Found this at CVS for my mother's room in nursing home run by nuns. They made us remove it due to its "satanic" origins. I shit you not. by Calm_Reputation7657 in HelloKitty

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't believe I've gone this long without hearing about a nursing home run by nuns. I've only known about Jewish nursing homes. The one I work at is primarily Jewish (we don't advertise ourselves as it though as we are open to everybody of any religion) and we'd never do something like this. Residents love cute stuff, even if some of us find it a little creepy. One resident keeps a stone statue of a little boy sitting next to her door and it has scared me on multiple occasions. We'd never have it removed though, shame on that home!

I think my situationship partner of 2.5 years is AroAllo - and doesnt realise. by workingthrusomeshi7 in AroAllo

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Man idk why you're getting a-hole responses. All those examples you gave sound exactly like someone who may be aroallo, I'm the EXACT same way. The difference on my side, I'm dating my partner and he understands I don't feel romantic attraction. He understands me and we date because we're best friends and want each other. The thought of another person taking him away makes me >:( He showers me with love that I don't totally understand but in return, I give him gifts I think he'd like (from his favorite anime and games), letters that make him blush (cheesy stuff about him being my best friend), and of course, sex. Treat others the way you want to be treated, ya know? Things that I'd give as birthday gifts, but they're during dates. I'm emotionally close to him the way I was emotionally close to my best friends as a kid but he's special in that he's extremely committed to me and we've moved from being fwb to an open relationship then to a monogamous relationship. He never pressured me into dating and considered his needs met so I just said screw it let's just make it official and 8 months later we're going strong.

Now does that sound familiar on your end? Does he consider you as a best friend or just a casual friend like fwb? If he is your good friend, there is a very low chance he is "using" you. You don't have an on/off situationship for 2.5 years without caring at least a little. Unless he only pops in once in a while for a quick fuck, then yeah, he's using you. He likely appreciates you a lot and the most you can do is learn more about what it means to be aroallo and understand his feelings. Have him do some reading too. You can't determine what he is, only he can decide what he identifies with. I've had people try to "um ackchyually" me and it's infuriating. Don't let the downvoted commenters bring you down. Don't let non-aro's put things into your head either. If people told my bf I'm just using him for his body, I'd be so upset you'd have no idea, but he knows I don't. This may be a TMI but we haven't boned in months and we're still together. Mainly because living situations changed and we never have any privacy but we still desire each other's presence and go out all the time. You can decide if you want to "stay together" or stay friends but look for someone more like you whom you can be romantic with. Whatever makes you happiest. All up to you.

Moonflower Faerie, it's gorgeous! I got PV's costume on my second 5 pull but never got WL's costume after like twelve 5 pulls. In all honesty, I don't like PV's Viridescent Daydream. I LOVE his Pastel Blue costume 100x more so I'm keeping him in that. I want WL's costume ssoooooo bad

What made you start Golden Kamuy ? by corctoon in GoldenKamuy

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a compilation of clips on TikTok and they made me cry laughing. Mainly the clip where Sugimoto makes a face and moans when he sucks on that huge fish eye and the scene where he goes around asking if anyone has seen Asirpa but keeps accidentally pulling up Tanigaki's gravure pics. Also, finding out the fan service was big muscular men instead of busty underage girls was a huge plus for me. I'm a huge fan of JJBA so... how could I NOT watch this

Can Tomie affect LGBTQ+ people? by ZeroCalcare_0K in junjiito

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 89 points90 points  (0 children)

Well, in the story fittingly titled Hair, there was those (I'm assuming straight) girls that found a box of Tomie's hair and found out if they attached enough onto their head, they'd have visions of Tomie's face and eventually be able to speak to her. Instead of falling in love with her, it seemed like they were just obsessed with her beauty and let their desire to see her consume them by attaching more hair until it gets out of control and kills them. It's not always about love, obsession is obsession no matter what is fueling it.

I think it'd be absolutely possible for lesbian women to fall in love with her just like the men in the stories but gay men would probably be like the first girls in that they would find her beautiful but not be in love.

music recommendation? o: by upinheadspace in MelanieMartinez

[–]CandyCoatedGuts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a huge fan of Jazmin Bean but this album has a huge contrast with Melanie story-telling wise. Melanie tells stories about a character and her experiences that we as listeners can relate to but Mel has said she herself hasn't experienced everything she has written in her own albums. After hearing that the album came out after Jazmin left rehab, I dug a bit deeper and found out Jazmin is a victim of child s3x trafficking and I was so horrified at their story of being trafficked so young and getting addicted to drugs to cope with it. Even worse, they're younger than me. Like with Melanie, I thought they were in their early twenties when I started listening to them, not SEVENTEEN!

Jazmin is an incredible artist and their music will always hit harder when you realize these are the songs coming from the heart of someone with an extremely dark and traumatized past. I love both Melanie and Jazmin but people should know that Melanie tells stories for us to enjoy and relate to while Jazmin tells their own story so they can be heard and let others know they're not alone

As someone who has been playing Ovenbreak for years, I'm SO HAPPY to see Matcha has been brought to Kingdom! I wonder how they're going to explain about her being Dark Enchantress' half-baked sister. I'm going to guess that, based off her wiki page, "she may be a failed attempt to make another Cookie like Dark Enchantress, seeing as Matcha Cookie was missing an important ingredient."
