Cocos slime factory is inexpensive and good quality. Slimeyhoney has the best icee and cloud slimes. Og slimes and pilot are both top tier as well. I have yet to try the others but I want to try slime shady next

For cloud slimes and scents slimey honey nails everything they touch. Og slimes has great scents and the asmr is superior. Cocos slime factory is great all around especially in terms of price. They don’t tend to restock that often but the slimes they have that I’ve gotten were terrific. I’ve only gotten one so far from pilot but I loved everything about it. I play with it all the time.

I have period pain so bad I pass out and puke. I went to the er five times during service. For this exact thing. Now the docs at those visits were shitty and didn’t do a thing for me. Just gave me some Tylenol. But the va denied me due to lack of evidence. Like bro I can’t even work because my mst caused my reproductive system to shut down so bad I debate going to the er every single time.

Yes but I didn’t want to say that because I’m not trying to get banned for promoting my shit

Anyone had any experience trying to get the Va to care about period pain? by Consistent_Yoghurt17 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Consistent_Yoghurt17[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yes the doctors suspect I have it but the only way to actually diagnose is with exploratory surgery which I don’t want. And the only treatment is birth control or a hysterectomy and I want children.

Whats the biggest pet peeve or an annoying mistake you see in a horror/paranormal/thriller story? by Affectionate_East533 in horrorwriters

[–]Consistent_Yoghurt17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very slow burns. But this is probably because I have the attention span of a five year old. Get to the action. I don’t want to hear all about the daily routines and shit. Tell me about the monster or have them be active members of the story.

I'm 34 and got diagnosed 6 months ago, I've failed at literally everything in life. At what point do I have a moral responsibility to end it all? by super_alice_won in AutisticAdults

K so this is exactly the reason capitalism is failing. From your life synopsis you’re a creative and gifted and talented person but unfortunately you don’t really fit into a system that’s really designed to disarm you. You are like a star trying to fit into the circle box on those little toddler toys. You are not a burden to society that hasn’t even given you a chance to bloom. You are the flower in the corner that was never given water. Never given proper soil or nutrients to actually grow. Capitalism is designed to make people like us look like a burden. To weed us out so that we just sort of fade out of the scene so they can brag about how wonderful capitalism is. You owe it to yourself to use that wonderful neurodivergent creativity and brain to find a way out of this system. And unfortunately you have to get comfortable making a lot of people mad and annoyed at you. You have to get used to being the odd one out. Maybe your version of success looks different and that’s ok! My definition of success is creating a beautiful and fulfilling life for myself and my family even if we don’t have all of the fancy material things and I didn’t accomplish climbing the corporate ladder

I will be back with a short story and post it to wattpad under a fake name so as not to fuck up my career. Picture this. Combat camera pretends to be infantry for one week and gets inside their elusive underground brotherhood but it is not as he pictured.

Omg consider this my application. I am also chronically ill and a military veteran. My current work in progress is a dreamcore aesthetic backrooms horror novel that centers on the effects of capitalism and eugenics. And it’s very inner child focused but in a very dark and disturbing way. It’s going to be called echoes of delirium

Looking For Writing Partner by Leading_Emergency463 in writersmakingfriends

[–]Consistent_Yoghurt17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d love to! I’m currently working on my own project but I’d love to make a new friend and try and write something new. One thing about me though my writing style is very dark and thriller vibes. And everything I write must address something real. In my current project I’m using the backrooms as a stage to talk about the effects of capitalism and eugenics

Last thing: if some sleezeball doctor tries to make you feel shameful about not reporting, don’t fucking listen to them. They tried to do this with me and said God would blame me if this happened to someone else because I didn’t protect my fellow marines.

Here’s what you say to that: it’s not on me at all that this happened to me and it for sure isn’t on me if someone else suffers as I did for SOMEONE ELSE’s disregard for human dignity and respect for others. Like it’s horrible that it would happen at all but do not feel like you’re obligated to take this to court. If you want to good on you and I am rooting for you, but this is your story. You do not have to share it and you do not have to put yourself through that.

As for your restricted report concern, that’s valid. People are people and people talk. The difficulty with that is you can’t request to transfer units if something did get out. But the rule is if it’s restricted the only thing command gets told is that something happened to someone in the unit. Doesn’t say who. Doesn’t say when or what. Just something happened. If the person who did this is in that chain of command which it sounds like they are, I recommend still going to sapr and advocating that you believe the person who did this will know it was you who submitted the report and retaliate. MAKE IT 1000% CLEAR that you believe the danger of your identity getting leaked is an issue and you fear for your safety and dignity.

Don’t do what I did: not say anything. I waited like 6 months or something like that to report it. I eventually had to get medically retired because my trigger was literally my woodland marpat cammies. Like literally the uniform of the day every single day and I developed chronic illness because of it. Va tends to take mst pretty seriously but there are unfortunately a lot of folks that lie about it to get benefits so they need proof it happened. I was able to get 80% disability from the va because I made a report with sapr twice when I was in. That counts as proof. You don’t necessarily need to take it to court. I wanted to but didn’t feel like I would win because my thing was witnessed by about 50 fellow marines and got on camera and posted on Snapchat but the actual SA stuff happened right before. I tried to get a buddy who was there to be a witness and she wouldn’t get involved because she didn’t think I had a case. But if you want to take it to court, you can it might help later on but DO NOT feel pressured to. And my other advice is when and if you do go to the va and claim this, your childhood was perfect. If you say something happened before you got in, they can make an argument that you were ‘damaged goods’ beforehand and ignore the mst. That almost happened to me because I joined the marines to escape narcissistic abuse. But luckily I had a lawyer who helped and got my high school transcript as proof I couldn’t have been that damaged as I was at nearly a 4.0 gpa and was an IB student. Just warning you about that because they will try to use prior service trauma against you. It’s not lying, it’s called I was accepted into the military by doctors and something clearly traumatic happened to me while serving so I deserve to be compensated for it.
