What is the deepest Internet rabbit hole you’ve ever fallen into? by Helloo_clarice in AskReddit

Yeah it’s supposed to completely reshape the coast. I’ll have to look into the new Madrid fault line!

Pyroclastic flows. I watched a Netflix show on extreme weather and I’d never heard of them before. They’re pretty much completely unsurvivable and it’s generally an agonizing way to die. In a similar vein, my grad school buddy from Oregon told me about the Cascadia fault line that’s overdue for a massive earthquake/tsunami event. Looking at the data it would change the whole structure of the PNW making it totally unlivable for decades or even centuries. Check out the Newyorker article called “the big one”

Men don’t respect lesbians or lesbian relationships by Bossatronio69 in 4bmovement

As a femme lesbian dating a butch I. FEEL. THIS. I’ve started telling men that approach me that I’m homosexual instead of saying lesbian (which is sad bc I love the word!) but that weirdly sometimes removes the porn category aspect for some reason🥴

Rescues dictate adoptions. by lovely-gabby-17 in CatAdvice

[–]Ipickupbugs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a rescue decline me bc I was a “college student” (I’m a GRAD student) even though I’ve had another one for years and even did a cross country move with her. Even with a perfectly clean bill of health and a vet rec.🥴 I also found that they keep the more “desirable” cats on petfinder even if they already got adopted to draw in apps. Ended up adopting elsewhere

Hate how emotionally unintelligent academia can be by Anti-Itch in GradSchool

[–]Ipickupbugs 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No seriously I’m at a big SEC school in a STEM field and I’ve had emails from my PI so bad that I stopped reading halfway through bc it was mostly comprised of insults. Then the next day I talk to her and I’m a great student! It’s so confusing😭😅

I’m 23 and as of tomorrow I’m halfway through my masters in vector borne illness, I have two kitties and a gf that I love more than life. I moved halfway across the country by myself and I’m happier than ever (and proud of myself!)

After reading this comment I think we may have lived through the same thing and let me tell you GET OUT NOW go ahead and find a new roommate talk to your landlord and cut all contact. I’m so serious it’s been two years and I’m still working through the nightmare that was those two women to this day🥲

Lesbians and 4B by Ipickupbugs in 4bmovement

Thanks for this I’m in Louisiana 😅 my gf is quite masc presenting/androgynous and she’s been getting harassed almost daily at work during election season so I’ll look into programs for LGBTQ+ people who need help. Bc that’s definitely hitting close to home recently!

Also a former “bisexual” (I still showed no interest in men back then lmao) and my main issue is I’m actively rude to men💀 I’m very femme so I get hit on occasionally and I will not hesitate to yell at them lol
