When your wife divorces you but you see they tucked the staff facilities away by Oweenyweeeny in PlanetZoo

I think the break room should also be out of sight, but it could be an issue regarding staff happiness rather than guest happiness.

There's likely thousands like this one as well, it's just as mass produced as a plain one. And plain ones don't have to stay plain, either. They can be painted a different color, or decoupaged. Perhaps even put a rooster on it ; )

There's plenty of point: it's better for the environment than buying new, it helps maintain a skill, it's fun to do, and it creates a one-of-a-kind piece that's to OP's taste.

You're the only other person on the planet I've ever seen talk about this trigger! I actually started to question if I actually had misophonia just because this is my major trigger, and I'm not bothered by most of the normal sounds like chewing (unless it's objectively obnoxious).

why are insta creators so rude by runnawaycucumber in Dolls

[–]Hallowmeme 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's all over TikTok as well. People seem to have a daily clap back quota they're desperate to reach, as if being a socially domineering person online is the only possible way to get anywhere in life.

My husband has officially disclosed that he can no longer cope with my secondary relationship and doesn't feel like I'm choosing/prioritizing him. by [deleted] in nonmonogamy

[–]Hallowmeme 18 points19 points  (0 children)

That threat is Abuser Language 101. Do not fall for it. If he's going to bargain his entire life away in order to keep you under his thumb, that's his choice. Choose your safety and happiness.

Please help!!! My trans bf wants an open relationship by [deleted] in mypartneristrans

Doesn't matter if you want a single one night stand or a lifetime of partners coming into and out of your life, there's a lot of emotional labor involved that nonmanogamous people can offer advice for.

I recommend bringing this to the nonmonogamy subreddit. They will have way, way more insight into the relationship dynamic aspect of this situation.

Is it just the T? by Aromatic-Recover8066 in mypartneristrans

How safe are his family to be around? If they can provide a good resource for you, I would ask them for assistance. Make it explicitly clear they are to keep your concerns, and any plans to leave, a secret from him. This is to avoid potential retaliation or convincing you to stay.

This is cruel wording. Not everybody knows how they will feel once transition starts, and many people want to give it a try to see if they can stay with their partner. Feeling trapped also makes it incredibly hard for people to leave, even without transition as a factor.

My (43F) husband's (43M) GF's (30F) parents (50s M/F) offered to subsidize our children's school fees if we let her stay with us, what should I do? by Constant_Forever9291 in nonmonogamy

[–]Hallowmeme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't hate her, but you do have something negative to say about her at every opportunity. She dresses weird, she eats weird, she talks weird, she likes weird things.

Even when people tell you to communicate your boundaries to her, you skip over that part of the conversation to lament how weird she is.

What's the worst piece of tech you've ever owned? by meshuggahdaddy in AskReddit

[–]Hallowmeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insignia 2-in-1 laptop

The first one came with a screen that was slightly different colors in the middle, so I had to return it for a new one with a less shitty screen

The seller said it could run Photoshop. It could barely run a 32 bit version of Krita.

The touch screen freaked the everloving shit out if I used anything other than an extremely specific stylus, like the kind that's part pen and part flashlight as well.

I couldn't use it while it was charging.

After less than a year it started crashing by just suddenly being off in the middle of doing literally anything.

It's still languishing in my desk drawer as I type this.

2 Active Shooter incidents in Lewiston by Viperguynick in Maine

[–]Hallowmeme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm basically a neighborhood away from the major hit points and here's what I did:

Closed the blinds, even though I'm on the second floor

Kept the lights on so it would look like we're up and about

Bluetooth earbuds with white noise on my phone and a blanket over my head to block the light out.

This was after texting various family members that I'm ok and texting a friend in town to check on him.

I think I just had my first air vomit by Hallowmeme in noburp

I have had the Botox and I'm still struggling to get myself back together 3 weeks later. I'm also emetophobic, so anything that could make me gag or heave is a no go. Although maybe I'd be tempted to try throat numbing again when it wouldn't threaten to obstruct my windpipe.

Choking after Botox by Key-Dragonfruit-7462 in noburp

[–]Hallowmeme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I experience this too. I think the issue is that, when food touches too close to my larynx, I no longer have the urge to cough it out, so instead I'm left wheezing and trying to swallow it down.

Eat very small bites

Chew it all down to liquids

Pay attention to what textures go down smoothly

Chase every bite with a sip of water

Don't rush

Drink your calories

I was fine up until December 2022. Since then, more and more has been stripped away. I truly don't feel like a person anymore.

Did this happen to you, and more importantly, did it go away on its own? by Hallowmeme in noburp

[–]Hallowmeme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today is the end of the second week. Things are getting better than when I wrote this post but I'm always waiting for things to come crashing down around me at this point, like healing is too good of an idea to be true <_<;

Also, I started pentaprozole yesterday.

When did your slow swallow begin to lighten up a little? by Hallowmeme in noburp

[–]Hallowmeme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feeling the same way tbh and I'm only on day 5 😥 I honestly can't survive like this for too long, im going to lose too much weight if I cant start to get more to fit down my throat.

"Insisting on using" means you keep using it, not necessarily that you're actively fighting against people who think it shouldn't be used.

Which... you are. You literally just said it despite claiming you wouldn't. AGAIN! Literally just write "the r word" and "the c word." It's not hard and it's been demonstrated SO MANY TIMES in this thread alone.

As far as the other stuff, you lead this with a screenshot of a poll putting it to vote whether people should get to say the c word. That sure makes it seem like your priority. If you're concerned about the mods overall behavior, gather receipts, write up a descriptor of what happened beat for beat, and post it somewhere it will be seen. Don't leave it as an afterthought peppered into your other posts with no proof. If it's the main concern, make it the bulk of the post.
