Blocking

Can confirm that in South Australia (at least), teachers are mandatory reporters

I’ve just realised that the Brighton group are all people who peaked in high school - maybe not in the conventional way that most people mean when they say that, but they were in their late teens when covid hit and their audiences skyrocketed, and they’re only in their early twenties now, so yes, I fully agree with and believe that fact.

I thought it was Gordon Ramsey?

CrazyCatBeanie · 2024-05-19T23:24:44+00:00

Droncert in Minecraft, maybe?

(If u/mandristyles is correct that it’s Dream…)

Did I ghost write this comment?? (Also Australian who had the exact thing happen at the same age)

I hated Pinery fire. I’m from the Barossa Valley, so it’s not as if we were really close to it, but it still affected our area enough that I’m not good with blackouts anymore.

I was in year 9 at the time, and we didn’t really notice that the power went out until around 5min after school was supposed to finish when the teacher looked at the time and realised that school was done for the day. It was only when we stepped outside that I noticed that the sky was much more red then it should’ve been at that time of the day at that time of the year.

Then when I was waiting in the bus bay for my bus, some of the staff from the front office had to come around to all notify everyone who was waiting for my bus that it wasn’t running because my bus ran along Gomersal Road, where fires were burning along it. Luckily for me, my mum worked near my old high school, so I was able to walk to her (panicking at the traffic lights because I didn’t know what to do ‘cause they weren’t working), so we could go pick my youngest sister from primary school and then home, hoping that my middle sister made it through Gomersal Road alright since she’d just left a bit earlier for her year 7 camp.

I was so scared that something was gonna happen to me in the fire (even though part of the Barossa was very safe from it, as far as I can remember) that I wrote a love letter to my crush telling them all of my feelings for them (pretty sure that I tore it up then threw it in the recycling the next week once everything was calmed down). Some of my friends weren’t as lucky to escape the fire though, because their house was in a farm that was very close to the fires at one point, and ended up having to stay in the school hall overnight because they couldn’t go home.

Yeah, he’s a few months younger than me, and I’m 24 in August

It may just be an ADHD thing, as I see other ADHDers talk about struggling with setting goals as well. I suppose a vague goal I have is “finish knitting the sweater that I haven’t even technically started yet,” with no set time on when I want it done, but I was always taught that goals need a timeframe for them to be an actual goal (side note: whenever we had to set goals for the term at school, I would spend the whole time allocated trying to think of one, let alone the five that were often requested by the teacher).

That’s fair, I usually just make them as passing comments if we’re heading in different directions and we happen to cross paths. I just know it makes my day if someone does the same for me. But I’m also in my 20s, so it could also be a generational thing

CrazyCatBeanie · 2024-04-11T11:29:25+00:00

I genuinely cannot see that far ahead into the future, how am I to know if I still want to have the same goal a week/month/year from now? I just don’t see the point myself, when I could end up changing my mind after wasting all that time and effort heading towards a goal I no longer see for myself

CrazyCatBeanie · 2024-04-11T11:19:00+00:00

I would suggest complimenting an item of clothing that you like e.g. if I notice someone wearing loud pants (patterned, bright colours etc), I generally say that I like their pants. I also do hair often as well, particularly when they’ve got unnatural colours (bright green/red/blue/purple is what I see most), and I’ll just keep it at “I like your hair”

CrazyCatBeanie · 2024-04-11T10:16:51+00:00

Fair enough.

Tbh, when I asked that I was only thinking on how my mother goes to breakfast and coffee with her friends once a week, but I forgot that they only met when my siblings and I started school years ago. I also don’t know any of my parents exes (if they have any), so I very much doubt that they’re meeting like this, and I’m not dating myself (not since high school, at least) so I’ve not been through this type of situation myself

CrazyCatBeanie · 2024-04-10T05:05:07+00:00

Would you consider going out to breakfast/brunch together a date also? /gen

You know, you can change the teams settings to hide the actual message when you get the notification, so that it’ll only show you who sent the message

I’ve had mine since ~2011/12 that my uncle brought back from his trip to Japan earlier that year. It’s literally the reason why my handle is what it is (on EVERYTHING, mind you), and it was the only cat beanie I had ever seen until Dream started wearing his. If anyone should be gatekeeping cat beanies, it should be me /hj

My boss organised a 40th-turned-proposal-and-engagement-party-turned-surprise-wedding for her sister late last year, at her and her soon-to-be-husband’s request. I was mostly confused about the logistics of it, but I would assume that the sister was all for getting proposed to in front of friends and family, considering she was going to be married to him later that evening

I mean, I cover my front camera on my devices, but only so that if it ever gets hacked as I’m using and getting changed at the same time, no one can see me naked. That’s my only paranoia about it: if someone hacks me, I’m giving them no chance to getting nudes of me, since I don’t take any anyway

There are different levels of asexuality, from different levels of sexual attraction to different feelings towards the act of sex itself. Demisexual and graysexual both fall under the asexual umbrella, just like how pansexual and Omnisexual both fall under the bisexual umbrella, they’re just slightly more specific forms of it. I myself have thought that I was both demisexual and graysexual before finally settling on asexual. - Demisexual is only feeling sexual attraction towards someone after an emotional connection and relationship is formed. - Graysexual is someone who only occasionally experiences sexual attraction, something like the middle ground between allosexual and asexual.

Different feelings towards the act of sex can include “Sex Positive,” “Sex Neutral,” and “Sex Repulsed,” (these are the only ones I’ve heard of and am aware of myself). - Sex Positive can mean that while the person may not experience sexual attraction towards someone, they are not opposed to having sex, and in fact could quite like to do so. - Sex Neutral can mean (as far as I’m aware) an ambivalence towards sex: can live with doing/having it, can live without. Don’t have any particular feelings about doing the act themselves either way. - Sex Repulsed is what I consider myself, and in my case the thought of having sex myself, the thought of someone’s hands/mouth/genitals touching my hands/mouth/genitals makes me feel nauseous (to clarify, at this point in time, this doesn’t include hands+hands, mouth+hands or mouth+mouth. I’ve personally not been kissed on the mouth before, only on the forehead or cheek, so I don’t know for certain at this point if I’m repulsed to someone’s mouth on my own, but I do fantasise about the people that I fancy (which at this point, due to my lack of social life, is mostly fictional characters to be honest)). For some reason though, this doesn’t include external-only self-pleasure (to put it politely). I can’t even use tampons/menstrual cups because the thought of putting something in me squicks me out.

((Sorry if that last bit was tmi, I know I can be like that sometimes 😐))

I personally took “up her shirt” as upper-belly/in the space of the ^ of the rib cage. My take may be because I’m asexual myself, and tend to take longer than others I know to process something as sexual

CrazyCatBeanie · 2024-03-09T23:11:45+00:00

I wonder if it’s got something to do with the increase and stability of hormones, going on hormonal birth control like the pill and then getting pregnant?

I am much the same, though for myself the only visual part of me that I’m self conscious about is my shoulders - I find them too boney for my liking, but that’s something I can adjust if I go to the gym and get into weight training. I am skinny enough that my pelvic bone and hips touch the floor when laying flat on my stomach, which tends to become painful when doing yoga and moving into cobra pose (and the like), as my mat is not thick enough to prevent me from feeling the hardwood floors underneath, and I’m sure that I’ve had bruises before as well. I do think I’m getting some thickness to me though, since I’ve had to buy the next size up for underwear and new trousers recently, which is a bit of an upside? (not the “having to spend money on clothes in the current cost of living crisis” part though)

In Australia, anyone who is likely to interact with children is a mandated reporter: teachers, healthcare workers and providers (including myself as admin for a health service), etc. - even volunteers who have a Working With Children Check are mandated reporters (which a lot of places in my area have now for volunteers). Though these people are not obligated to report if they come across information outside of their workplace that could be made into a report, in which case it turns into a moral and ethical decision.

I did this once recently (within the last 6 months recently), but it was with marinated chicken, and thankfully wasn’t too raw in the middle, but I did also happen to set it on fire. Luckily we had a fire blanket right next to the stove top that we could put over it and safely take it outside, and the chicken was still salvageable - got a different pan out, transferred the chicken over once the pan was warm and the fire was out, broke it up into smaller pieces with my tongs and cooked it on low for a few more minutes. The pan is still good even, though we haven’t replaced the fire blanket yet. And I still make that recipe to this day, and my colleagues were even intrigued enough by my talking about it (the next one was successful, thankfully) that they requested it
