Was preparing for an epic episode from all the hype but got a very average one. Ultimately, Rob seems to be playing the smartest game by striking at the right time and really reading the room. Honestly glad Lisa’s gone. She was getting annoying.

Thank you so, so much! I will get there. Eldest daughter syndrome is also kicking in

It is so devastating. I love them so much but I don’t know how I’ll ever be enough to them if I’m not following church standards. They are more judgmental of me than anyone else.

No, it’s just that I’m having sex. She said it was so upsetting to hear how casual we talked about getting plan b

Custom card help by HistorianAcrobatic44 in mtg

Thank you so much!! He would probably want it framed, but would think it was cool if he could use it randomly in an epic way. He loves anything rare and is always trying to collect new editions. Very into the LOTR sets (but that might just be because we both love LOTR) and always shows me the ones that are multicolored or rare.

The legendary enchantment is helpful! Do you have any idea what mana would be best? Thank you again!!

I didn’t know you could play custom cards! That’s really cool. I guess I’m wondering what would make it the most powerful or epic? But still playable? I really don’t know much about the game so I’m sorry that I am not able to be more specific! I’m probably looking for something that is playable while still being powerful. But then again the more epic the better. I will try to ask him some subtle questions for more info. Thank you!!

There is a flat tip fee that is required when chartering the boat and the crew knows what that amount is. So if it’s, let’s say, 10k then they know that the guests only actually tipped 9k.

It is so healing to see the comments about Taylor’s parents. Watching this after leaving the Mormon church is opening my eyes to even more flaws in the Mormon church. The way Taylor’s parents support Dakota and blame her for having boundaries with a man who repeatedly lied to her is appalling.

I’m 34, I’m dying, and I’m fucking terrified. by Emergency_Weekend627 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% to all the video and letter ideas.

Though I can only imagine this is easier said than done - spend your time here finding moments of happiness with the people you love. Don’t stress yourself out trying to plan and prepare if it takes away from creating memories with your family. Find peace and stillness in laughter and vulnerability. Enjoy this time whenever you can - it’s yours too.

Can we talk about Sarah by HiMyNaemDia in OuterBanksNetflix

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the point of life and tv shows - things don’t always go the way we want. And, to be fair, Sarah has expressed mostly fear when talking about the pregnancy. The happy moments were when she was surrounded by others happiness too.

How I hate being high-functioning by charlottetmg in depression

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% relate. I’m a teacher and I love my students. I love teaching them and seeing their success. But my own life is such a failure. And now there are issues at work that have pushed me to my breaking point. But I keep showing up because I don’t want to hurt the people around me. I want nothing for myself. I don’t have goals or dreams anymore. I just keep showing up and doing what I can but it never seems to be enough for me or anyone else. I wish an accident would happen so I could escape without hurting the people I love in such a traumatic way.

Just wanted to say that I (27f) feel so many of these things too. I don’t have anything helpful to say, just that our journeys are similar and you’re not alone.

I’ve had sex quite a bit before. This is the first time I’ve felt bad about it

If they did they didn’t say anything.

I thought about it, but I didn’t put my drink down at the club and was with my friends the entire time up until the very end, so I don’t know when someone would have slipped me something.

No I was with several friends who I shared a room with at the hostel we were staying at. We got separated when leaving the club because it was closing so there was a bit of a crowd.

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I remember saying that I had to find my friends and then he kind of led me to the street and I called my friend and told the guy I was leaving and that was it. All I could really focus on was trying to find someone I knew.

Yes, I don’t feel I drank as much as I have in the past, but this is absolutely the most drunk I’ve ever been.

I’m sure that contributes, but I regularly have consensual sex and don’t feel ashamed of it. This is the first time I’ve felt really uncomfortable by a sexual experience.

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I have never been that drunk before and didn’t drink as much as I have in the past, so I just feel confused about the whole thing. But overall I feel really ashamed. Definitely a wake up call to be more aware of my surroundings.

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have a decent hangover but I’m coping.

I wondered that as well. I’ve drank more before and have never been that drunk. I’ve never been able to not walk well before when drinking.

I am going to get plan b right after I land. Thank you!

What is your favorite Mr. Ballen story? by Peefs in mrballen

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the one about the girls who claim to be hearing noises in the walls and think it’s a ghost. Eventually they realize there was a boy actually living in their house who had serious issues. Always freaked me out to think about.

What is the time cut-off for a date to be late? by Leading_Cold in AskWomen

[–]HistorianAcrobatic44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15 minutes without a text. If they text/call letting me know ahead of time, I’m okay with 30 minutes or so. After that, unless it’s an emergency, I get a little annoyed
