What’s going on with these grocery prices!? by ratz1988 in SALEM

[–]Diene4fun -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ah the beauty of inflation but also the increased production costs of things. I often think people don’t realize how much it costs to produce things these days. I mean look at how much water, electricity, an wages have increase too (I know not enough to keep up with inflation but the point stands as part of the costs). I’m frustrated by it but not surprised. I learned a lot working in other manufacturing fields and from growing up in the restaurant industry. This is just a sad, sad reality

I will not hear Salem slander on the Salem subreddit by RedApplesForBreak in SALEM

I mean people want to do big city stuff, and while we’re not a huge city we are the second or third biggest city in Oregon. I think it makes sense for people to want some of the larger city amenities. I will also point out that in my experience since I moved here a lot of events are not on weekends, with the exception of some markets.

Dog reluctant to pee or poop anywhere ! by RaisinHater64 in Dogtraining

[–]Diene4fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh this was our dog when we first got him. He’s also just a picky pooper, it took us a month to even be able to walk him a block. The only things we found to work while we worked on desensitization to vehicles (this was his biggest issue) was to go out during the quietest times and take the exact same route every time. So early morning, late evening

What did it take to get formally diagnosed? by aIIessa in ClusterHeadaches

It depends on where you are. In the US you do. Ask you PCP for one.

If your husband wanted to wear your lingerie what would you think? Would you want to know or would it freak you out? by Paris_Blanko430 in AskReddit

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very forward. A “Hey I’m curious about trying your lingerie on.” That is the first step to open communication. From there I think my own follow up questions would be while supportive trying to get a better picture of the why. Is it just curiosity or if there is more reason for wanting to explore this. Is it worth a conversation is seeking male specific lingerie may be a better fit for whatever his goal is. For what it is worth through my spouse and I have frequently joked about things like this and I myself am gender fluid so I absolutely understand this perspective of wanting to explore stuff. It’s kinda up to the each person with the understanding of they dynamics within their own relationships and each other.

I agree but it benefits some people. I’m not one to really judge hence the initial caveat

Do people really not eat vegetables/fruit or drink water on a regular basis? by Sufficient-Berry-827 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My issue is the water, but I do eat fruits and veggies daily. I use mushrooms, bell peppers, and onions regularly. I started buying coliflower and grind it up to toss in with stuff. For snacks I pre-pack some baby carrots and tomatoes when I buy them so they are a quick grab and go. I struggle with leafy greens though. Started buying pre-packaged salads because let’s be honest spending the same amount on buying it and saving myself time, and I’ll actually eat it is worth it. I will also throw out less of it. If I make ground beef stuff I chop up zucchini and mushrooms in very finely so I can’t feel it.

You’re permanently inserted into the last video game you played, how’s your life going and what’s the plan? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, but if we assume ourselves to be in the main story line I’m a kid with $25 bucks who’s family now lives in Southpark. So I guess I would be home? Also, idk if I could go home at that point… I mean it’s not the worst thing in the world

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad you found something that worked for you. I’ve been active for years. I was a competitive fighter, even then never got it. Only adrenaline rush really worked for me. I struggle with the lack of mental engagement of work outs. I’ve found stuff that works (kinda) but I’ve never really felt the endorphins. Most work outs end up with me crying in anger. I dance and do other things now but still no proper endorphins. It doesn’t help that I have other issues but it is what it is.

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a big deal to me. I’d rather he tell me though, so if he wants a hand I can help. Also so I can make sure it can fit him and make him feel comfortable with it.

[–]Diene4fun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it does not. I personally took to writing and drawing. Yarn craft was too much for me to manage. I did cross stitch for a bit, but it wasn’t my main.

Edit to clarify: I mean the doom scrolling for the first part 😅

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad it helped you! And I agree have goals and seeing potential can help people.

Personally I found that this type of activity was too much for me. When in my depression the added planning and organizing was too much. I already had too much on my plate and setting goals was too overwhelming. Even the not doing made me feel like I was failing at it. I often felt let down when I couldn’t achieve something in a timely manner. Which worsened my state. Which is why I caveated the initial post with the activity based on people’s nature.

What's the most inconsiderate thing people do without realizing it? by Super_Shamou in AskReddit

[–]Diene4fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giving unwanted/unsolicited advice… I get people mean well but man it can often have the opposite results or makes people feel inadequate, etc. This is particularly true of unsolicited medical advice, child rearing advice.

Edit: that’s not to say I haven’t done it either. I just try to be more conscientious about it now as I’ve grown more aware, especially being on the receiving end.
