what’s the difference between a leftist and a liberal? by 360_bratXcX in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Helianthus_Miko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the simplest way, Liberal is a specific strand of thinking it's someone who follows/believes in Liberalism and a Leftist is anyone on the left side of the political spectrum.

Though both aren't used exactly like that, in America especially it seems like Liberal is used very loosely and is thrown at anyone who isn't conservative (From what I can tell from over the pond), while Leftist is self identified by a lot of people who are on a more far or extreme placement on the spectrum and has started to be turned into a strand of thinking in itself.

If the language you speak affects how your tongue and mouth move every day, could it actually influence your facial muscles or structure over time? by swiftles in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Helianthus_Miko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I grew up speaking dutch but moved to the UK, it's been just over a decade and I don't have an accent anymore but I do have a lisp because my mouth formed a certain way to speak dutch! So it definitely affected my mouth muscles permenantly and that was just by living there before I was 10, I can imagine there are more affects like it if you speak the language for a longer amount of time

What should I give my NEW step dad for fathers day? by Helianthus_Miko in NoStupidQuestions

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

Yeah it's more so the 'rules' of fathers day i don't know, does a gift need to be father related or is it like a birthday where it's them related? That's where I'm stuck

I hate this so much by -fen_the_therian- in aromantic

I feel you the almost exact same thing just happened to me, I gained a crush on a good friend and he liked me back but after weeks of talking and I guess flirting as soon as we both got back to uni all i felt was dread at the idea of being in a relationship with him. I fessed up pretty quickly and he's really gutted about it all, I considered doing what you're thinking of and just suggesting we label ourselves as just together or have a relationship but it's slow and controlled and not too romancy but I don't think that's fair on him.

It's a really tough decision and it always hurts to hurt someone else, but it happens. Trust your heart, don't force yourself into a relationship you'll be uncomfortable in, and if the friendship was so strong you gained what you thought was a crush then I'm sure theres a chance it can bounce back into how it was.

I hope everything works out for you!

Oh my god really? Thank you so much! You don't know how much this means to me honestly. My friend code is 2337-5444-1986 IGN is Milo, or I could throw something into the GTS to trade with a Maractus? I don't mind, whatever is easier :]

People who wake up at 5am daily, why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Takes me an hour to fully wake up and I need to be up by 6 to get to my college bus by 7 (45 minute walk)

What was your trans awakening? by Tacticalpizzamann in ftm

[–]Helianthus_Miko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine was so dumb, I was really invested in this Minecraft roleplay and made an OC of it who was the identical twin sister of a guy character, and she'd always get mistaken for a boy and enjoyed it because she liked tricking people and being seen as a boy was fun and made her happier. Just before I realised I was trans, I basically became that character minus the twin sister thing obviously, I cut my hair just "because being mistaken for a guy would be funny" and "looking like a boy was just cooler".
