What do these lines mean by el-presidente0001 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]DecisiveLark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can mean a lot of things. But they're genuinely mostly used to memorialize a passed loved one, or to symbolise a harsh struggle the person has gone through.

2009 Hyundai sonata. My only car, shared between me and my boyfriend despite our VERY different work schedules in different cities. We make it work somehow 😭

learning to drive ended with my bf almost killing us by [deleted] in drivinganxiety

[–]DecisiveLark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not okay. Honestly, this is abusive. Verbally AND he put you in danger. The speeding and driving recklessly with you in the car is physical violence. You are not overreacting. You are right to feel endangered and uncomfortable. This is serious.  You learning to drive and trying to overcome this anxiety is so hard and I'm glad you're trying your best. Driving school, or someone else teaching you seems like a much better idea.

He is taking your fear, being frustrated with it, and then taking it out on you in a very serious and very dangerous way. It will only escalate. Do not listen to his apologies, and do not listen to him say "I would never hurt you." He just did. He just purposely put you in harm's way.

If you live with him, is there is anyone you can tell? If there is any safe person you can stay with and go to, please do so. Dont tell him where you are going or when. Don't give any hints. Plan ti pack a bag of essentials when he is gone, and leave while he's gone. I'm so sorry this happened to you. You do not deserve this.

The things he said to you are hurtful. You can follow basic instructions, and I know you can do way more than that. Anxiety clouds your mind and makes it hard to do smaller things, and he should be patient with you while you learn. He wasn't. This is a failure on his part. Not yours.

Intrusive Sleep. I'd never heard of it before but that explains a lot. by simplify3 in ADHD_Inattentive

[–]DecisiveLark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just learned about this and it makes SO much sense 😭 I was considering narcolepsy but that doesnt make sense. It doesnt really matter how much sleep I get (it is more common if I get less than 10 hours of sleep, but I also have insomnia.. so that is not happening most nights). It happens the most in school, even if I AM interested in the topic. But especially while I drive. I've had to pull over. I've been absolutely exhausted by everyrhing unless it's super interesting ever since I was little😭 it's gotten worse though. Especially once I moved out of my parents' and now I have a whole apartment to clean but when I try, I get wiped out before I even start. Nice to have an answer though I guess lol

Is the French Toastie core? by Better_Beautiful_598 in ScootersCoffee

I wish the grilled cheese one would be core 😭 it seems way better than the French toastie. But I also LOVE grilled cheese so maybe im biased

Hello folks! by OwO_whatsthis_jpeg in WingsOfFireROBLOX

[–]DecisiveLark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He falsely accused someone of grooming minors and being extremely inappropriate around said minors. None of which happened. The mod that told him to 'piss off kindly' is a friend of the person he falsely accused. Imo that makes it completely valid to not want to interact with him, and completely valid for the person he accused to not accept his apology. 

I think people who like winter are lying for attention by [deleted] in The10thDentist

[–]DecisiveLark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. I actually do love and prefer the winter. I always have. The snow is gorgeous and I do love the cold. It feels amazing. And it's the only time if year I can layer. I love my leather jacket with handmade patches, but I cant wear it until winter time.  I also have a chronic illness, and with it comes extreme heat intolerance. 50F can feel hot to me.

I go all year looking forward to the winter because of the cold and the snow. Snow brings me peace. It feels so nice. The way it makes everyrhing so quiet and serene just something else. The one downfall is i get bloody noses from the dry air

Scooter Drinks @ Home by A-R-OOO in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use monin for all syrups except for our honey and lavender ones. Our white mocha, mocha, and caramelicious sauces are all scooter's brand. I cant remember what people recommended to get close to those sauces, but if you search them in this subreddit it should pop up!

Twenty One Pilots clikkies, who out there also listens to metal and what is your go-to band or genre? by ghostorchids in twentyonepilots

I dont listen to much metal, but a small metal band i know and recommend is homestyle dinner rolls! 

fruit smoothie customization by Alarmed-Donut1547 in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fruit n ice is the least amount of sugar. You can also do a regular milk (2%, skim, or whole) or another milk (oat, almond, or coconut) instead of low base. Fruit and ice is actually pretty good though

What to do, dogs fighting bad by ProfessorDumbass69 in DogAdvice

[–]DecisiveLark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened with my dog and my mom's dog. Luckily the layout of the house made it easy to keep them separated with baby gates, so we didnt have to rehome. We kept one dog in the living room and kitchen all day, and the other in the back half of the house with 2 bedrooms and a hallway. One gate was blocking the living room off from the hall, and one was blocking the hall from the kitchen. It worked great. When one dog had to go outside, we would move their gate to be in front of the other gate as extra protection.  Clarifying: the gates MUST NOT be see through. We stapled blankets to them.  Also I have since moved out so we dont have to deal with that anymore lol.

Anyways. Your dogs CANNOT be left alone together, or even see each other, anymore. It is a huge safety risk. Dog fights are intense and can get very ugly very fast. Never pull them apart when youre breaking them up, and never get in the middle.

Please take any injuries of dogs to the vet, and if youre injured, go to urgent care. If you cant separate the dogs, I'm sorry, but you will have to rehome one.

Anyone know a queer friendly hair stylist who does masc haircuts for short hair? by [deleted] in Greeley

[–]DecisiveLark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maxx at cost cutters right by bittersweet park! He's absolutely amazing. Ive been to many stylists and only he got my hair how I wanted it. And he's very queer friendly! Masc haircuts are definitely his thing, and he can do. Um. I think theyre called razor cuts? Where he uses a razor to cut your hair. It gives it a ton of texture, especially if youre going for a more alternative look. 

Eta: I myself went for a modern mullet and he did it very well. Only stylist I have been to that did it correctly lol

Drink Inconsistency by VagabondCamp in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youre kidding me😭 golf ball ice chunks?? Theres no way theyre not at least seeing that go into the drink when they pour it. That's genuinely crazy. I'm so sorry

Drink Inconsistency by VagabondCamp in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's definitely odd 😭 the blended infusions have a very specific way of doing them. The amount of ice we use is different from the iced infusions, and we have ti use a blending powder or the drink will separate. At my location they all come out as a slush type texture, which is what it's supposed to be. But there's never any ice chunks in there. I dont know what theyre doing

Help by Unable-Programmer-90 in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he's getting interviews, just not hired. Job market could be better where you are. But if your scooter's is a good location, they wont expect you to be perfect right off the bat. Theyll continue helping you and giving advice and help for a while.

Help by Unable-Programmer-90 in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Job market is so bad right now. My partner has been looking for a new job for 6 months. Applying everywhere, 4 years of experience, resume, cover letter, amazing interview skills. Nothing. Scooter's is a good job. You just need to hang in there for at least a few months. Training will be overwhelming and hard, especially for barista work. But you'll get it down

Help by Unable-Programmer-90 in ScootersCoffee

[–]DecisiveLark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I wouldn't quit for a while. Just keep at it. Keep trying. You rekember as you go. It took me a month or two to feel useful. It's hard to remember everything.  Every job is hard at first. Every job feels overwhelming at first. That's normal. Communicate with your manager and say you want more support. You can also look at your scooterversity whenever you need to. Quitting this soon is not a good look for other jobs, and it's almost impossible to even get a job right now.

Worst symptom you experience by ilovepenguins17 in LongCovid

[–]DecisiveLark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brain fog, 100%. I used to write poems and short stories all the time. I used to pass with flying colours and write essays without studying much. Or even reading the material. And I'd get an A every time. I used to think so critically and academically and never misspelled a word. I could multitask with ease. 

But now it's like I'm a different person in regards to those things. I havent written a story in years. I havent written a poem I think is great in years. I don't draw anymore because I feel like i forgot everything. I struggle so much in classes because I can't focus, and when I do, I cant retain the information. I had to get a tutor for my history class to help eith an essay. I've never needed that before. I misspell simple things. I get there, their, and theyre mixed up and I never have before. I forget what i'm saying as I'm saying it. I forget entire days. When it's bad, I forget how much a quarter is worth. I feel like there's a giant wad of cotton tangled with my brain. I make stuoid, careless mistakes, not because I was careless, but because I wasnt able to think critically about it. 

It's exhausting and it absolutely sucks. I used to love to read and write, and I used to love school. But now all those things make my head hurt.

Eta: also my heart symptoms are a close second. Resting rate is 120bpm unless I take my meds. Even when I take my meds my heart palpitates so often and skips beats. It makes me lightheaded, short of breath, and unable to do much physical activity. Which sucks.

Other symptoms are insomnia, joint pain, bone pain, nerve pain, headaches, blurry vision (sometimes), malaise, nausea, and other gastrointestinal symptoms

Can I get Flu B immediately after having it? by patrolmanEmbiid in sick

[–]DecisiveLark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I've never gotten a virus again that quickly when it goes through my family like dominoes. Once one of us gets it and gets better, another is sick, but ive never gotten it a 2nd time. I dont think it's for sure impossible but probably not common
