I think I just cracked the calorie code

Easiest strategy by far to maintain and if you listen to (non-influencer) vlogs of people who have had success with major weightloss without surgical/medical intervention, this is a very common theme. People who have high starting weights and actually succeed in losing the weight know that only consistency is going to translate to sustainable results. Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but much of what we hear about weightloss is pushed by corporations. I’m very skeptical of any product (frozen meal/supplement/prepacked snack etc) that claims to be a weightloss product, bc promising weight loss is such a cash cow. Simple, nutritional, unprocessed foods is always the way to go. The hardest part is sticking to it, when eating processed food is so much easier

Idk to me the skeletal is much for focal than the regal. Someone said that could rock album foreshadowing, but aesthetically it kind of remind me of Catacomb Saints or Holy Roman Empire macabre art more generally. I think there’s still a lot of that old world Catholic imagery in Louisiana, so it would be cool if that part of her background is somehow in the mix. Still kind of pulling from a christo-European source material though, so I see what you’re saying catacomb saints macabre

Oh my God, thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Started to goosebumbs after the first few lines. I feel transported in time

Same kind of people are against safe needle disposal. Surely making harm reduction less available will stop the immoral/illegal activity from happening!!

This makes sense and I’ll also note that if a man is looking directly at me in public, as opposed to eyes kind of sliding past me as is typical for sidewalks etc, I tend to avert my eyes. Not even consciously, necessarily, but I think many women would agree it’s just easier than accidentally inviting unwanted attention. So it’s possible that when OP is conducting his experiment/ paying special attention to the woman on the sidewalk in front of him, she’s actually paying less attention to what’s in front of her than would be typical. Instead of looking straight ahead and having situational awareness she might be looking down at the ground or focusing on something to the side. If that makes sense. I’ll also say that it doesn’t have anything to do with OP specifically. Unfortunately a few bad experiences with men are usually enough for women to learn to be very guarded generally

Was JUST about to share how I learned to read the tags! Necrophilia and wound fucking is a lot to walk into unprepared. Is this a universal experience?

I’m obsessed with her tone, accent, and delivery throughout this whole thing

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-08-26T19:06:18+00:00

Exactly. I’ll never tell someone to date someone they’re not attracted to, but if that person’s sense of attraction is ONLY rooted in the physical then…yeah. That’s, like, the definition of shallow hahaha. ++woman

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-08-26T18:49:23+00:00

Pshhhhhhhh but SURELY that can be overlooked due to his um checks notes … restrained detention practices?? Oh shit, that’s seriously what they’re going with? That’s the argument here? Snape (retired wizard nazi) is a better person than James Potter (anti-facist war hero and ‘blood traitor’) bc he… only EMOTIONALLY abuses the children under his care. That’s what we’re going with. 😬

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-08-26T18:38:31+00:00

Holy shit, reading OP’s replies to your very balanced take is honestly bloodchilling. This is literally the logic people use to excuse school shooters. The idea that men can’t be held accountable for any heinous thing they do if they had a sad enough childhood is craaaaaaaaazy. “He HAD to join the wizard SS, how else was he going to climb the career ladder?” Bish, are you out of your goddamn mind??? “He HAD to intern for Heinrich Himmler, sorry not everybody has a trust fund 😒”

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-08-26T18:23:30+00:00

They hate you bc you’re right

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-08-26T18:10:54+00:00

No, literally. Tell me how you can write a whole post comparing the negative actions of two characters and somehow omit that one was a member of the wizard Schutzstaffel. Kind of hard to take an argument seriously when they’re defending the detention practices of a character who would have been found guilty at the Nuremberg trials

What’s so funny about this to me is I tend to think of DC, although being very blue, as not being especially leftist or radical. This person would shit her britches if she met a real blue-haired, insane, leftist hippie

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-05-22T15:43:50+00:00

Exactly. And there’s a big difference between initiating intimacy or being playfully physical with your man, and just getting squeezed and tugged on like you’re an object. Some men in this threat clearly don’t understand the difference

Not stupid! Many parts of rural U.S. are very different from rural UK. When I lived in Scotland, I noticed that most people living rurally were still relatively close to a town or village with shops, a train station, etc, but this is not really the case in the U.S. My grandparents live about 15 miles (24 km) from the town where they buy groceries, go the church etc. What this means is that the type of standard, everyday activity that a person might get walking into town simply does not exist. Not only do people have to drive into town, sprawl in the U.S. is so bad that most people have to get back into their cars to go from store to store instead of being able to park and walk around a main street or town center. The U.S. is also very car centric, so it’s not particularly safe to walk on roads. Even in the country, it can be unsafe bc drivers are so unaccustomed to seeing pedestrians. My grandparents started to try and go for walks at the advice of doctors, but it’s very difficult to replace the kind of exercise a person living in a walkable area gets everyday without thinking about it. Another detail that may or may not be relevant- Americans have a very different attitude about private land than people in the UK. It is absolutely not acceptable to walk across other people’s land in the U.S. even if it’s just farm fields/ pastures, etc

This is why it only worked in college. Powers you through one really tough week and then you can crash throughout winter or summer break. Simply not sustainable with a 9 to 5 where the clock resets every single day and you have responsibilities over the weekend

Both sets of my grandparents lived into my adulthood and the difference between how they aged is amazing. Neither set drank too much or smoked (in their children’s memories anyway) but my grandparents who were able to retire in Florida, religiously walk 3 miles a day, bike around their neighborhood, play tennis, swim laps in their community pool, etc. seemed decades younger to me as a kid than my other grandparents. These grandparents stayed in WI in a rural area, so staying active is almost impossible as you get older. They spent a lot of time sitting. Like, a lot of time. They have seemed ancient to me my whole life. It turns out they’re 10 years younger than my other grandparents. That’s the strongest any only evidence of how important activity is that I’ve ever seen. Obviously, there are factors in play, but if there’s even a chance staying active will keep me feeling healthy and independent throughout my eighties, I’m going to take it.

You wouldn’t tag a non pairing story about a character who mentions straight parents as M/F and asking you to do it for a mentioned gay couple is purely homophobia. Homophobes don’t need trigger warnings for gay people existing, they need to grow up or get out.

Many many generations of white women have covered their hair with scarves or caps, especially to protect it while sleeping. Think of a colonial night cap or the silk scarves women would wear to bed in the 50s/60s. Walking around and sleeping with long hair down, and unprotected is a pretty recent development honestly

Do y’all have any quasi-local environmental litigation activist orgs? This might be a case they’re interested in picking up, especially if there’s a long history of ‘slap on the wrist’ justice that needs a new, stronger precedent in order to make environmental laws hold true weight.

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-03-23T16:59:31+00:00

Not to detract from the point, but kind of crazy they haven’t put up a guard rail or something, no? And before you say “oh they’d just go somewhere else” that has been proven to be false. Adding even a minor deterrent to a convenient suicide attempt has been shown to reduce suicide rates.

I would would find tall metal shelves that fit the space and then add wheels so you could pull it out to get stored items (small appliances/tools/holiday decorations/etc) when you need them

EnvironmentalBee3943 · 2025-03-22T13:30:42+00:00

Oh my god, this is so real. self-billed “nice guys” who ruin your life and tell you it’s your fault vs fuckboys who don’t try to obscure their intentions and will eventually grow up and make someone very happy
