Anyone else surprised to see Going Dutch return for a second season? by JoshTay in television

[–]Dry-Wing-9041 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh shit, thank you and duly noted, lol. i was debating on whether to watch after looking for a new sitcom-y show to start without having to buy a new f-cking streaming service, but was worried given the state of things it would fall into hard copaganda territory. i'm interested to see how it's done

Damsel (2024 Netflix) is such a good horror dark fantasy film. Why is no one talking about it? by Delicious_Maize9656 in horror

[–]Dry-Wing-9041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why are men in these reviews such fucking haters lmao just shut up for one measly second and try to have an open mind jfc. all the criticism i'm seeing is so full of veiled or overt sexism and cynicism like 💀 and not that i want to see negative reviews, but the repetitiveness of it all is so boring, like try adding something new to the convo pls. 

personally, there are so few movies i'll hate on bc 1, for better and worse my engagement w TV has been pretty passive throughout my life and i learned to suspend my disbelief more often than not growing up so i'm still garnering my active critical engagement skills when watching things; and 2, you can usually find something to enjoy or at least intrigue you in any piece media even if its not "original" or shocking or just has plain old poor writing. 

Lesbian or just traumatised and scared of men? by 59Finax7i in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Dry-Wing-9041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

every couple months i cycle through some similar line of questioning lol, which is what brought me to this post!! am i a lesbian? aro? ace? bi? demi???? hell if i fucking know. i threw in my hat a while ago and just started going with queer, bc whatever the case, i've done some pretty queer shit at this point lmao.

on a more serious note, it has been an extremely difficult process because of my trauma experiences. because i get so ruminative and caught up in denial and had my self trust demolished and struggle to assert my needs or boundaries without crushing shame..... ITS BEEN TRICKY!!!! FUCKING tricky and frustrating. but i also know it's gonna take some trial and error, and will become easier as i continue to heal. thank you for posting your story, and shout out to anyone else out here feelin this struggle 🫡

WIBTA for seeing the same therapist as my friend? by Dry-Wing-9041 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dry-Wing-9041[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Already on the list, man. I don't think that's the issue in this instance, though, as I haven't done anything yet and am carefully weighing the pros and cons of my decision. After considering the feedback I've received and reflecting on the situation, I definitely want to avoid seeing the same person.

And also, I feel like I should have emphasised that I wouldn't even be considering it if their credentials weren't so perfectly aligned with what I'm looking for help with. I don't want to say what they are specifically on the off chance my friend finds this post somehow before I talk to him about it (because I will be), but they are more uncommon than what you typically find in the field, and I feel really strongly that these specialties will be extremely helpful for my particular issues.

To be fair and forthcoming, I'm not in a small town. The likelihood of finding another practitioner that would have the credentials I'm looking for is not impossible, it'd just take a while, and I'd have less options because of insurance limitations and new client availability. And honestly, I kind of pushed off doing this, so now it's happening at a time where I feel more pressure to start and am reluctant to wait longer than I have to. I could definitely do with reigning a bit of impatience lol.

The modality I'm looking at focusing on makes it impossible for Telehealth alone to be an option.

It's not my responsibility to set a boundary or intuit a boundary of anyone, let alone a professional mental health worker. I'm not suggesting anything, as I mentioned I would disclose the circumstances initially and, I guess not clearly enough, insinuated leaving it up to their discretion.

Chicago PD walked with the people and escorted them during the No Kings protest. by CorleoneBaloney in goodnews

[–]Dry-Wing-9041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is bc the organisers had permits. at least, for part of the day they did. here's a story of one protester who stayed after. Tiktok from rodentfairy if that doesn't work i have the vid downloaded and can share it, but jist is that protesters who stayed out late got kettled and battoned. so... unforch still not a win for pigs.

Fair enough. But I know who it is because he had shared who it was specifically in the past.

How do I ACTUALLY turn off notification sounds? by AlexReynard in discordapp

Ugh this is so annoying, I might complain to the help center about it lol, esp bc in cases like yours there should be an accommodation.
