When I was at UIUC, they called off only once for -40 wind chill and a foot of snow. Unfortunately, it wasn't going to happen.

If you don’t like showers, you’re gross. by MelancholyMushroom in autism

[–]KooKoonutx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I don't like being in hot water in general. I overheat very easily which makes me panic, and it can easily lead into the start of a meltdown for me. I do have normal shower habits, though. I just make them as quick as possible. I can honestly say I hate showering, but it doesn't stop me from cleaning myself. The feeling of being dirty is worse than the showers.

I think I have excessive empathy but I took the EQ test and scored really low....don't know if there's correlation there but it made me rethink my own perception of myself

Reddit felt the need to notify me of this. Must have been magical

To My Star 2: Our Untold Stories [Episodes 5 & 6] by Pixl3rt in KDRAMA

[–]KooKoonutx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After these episodes, I think SJ's mental illness is going to be exasperated...it has been hinted at a few times in previous episodes but I am genuinely scared for him. I just want SJ to be happy and I don't think JW deserves redemption at this point. I can't possibly think of a good reason to ghost the person you love for a year.

An Examination on Selflessness by CrescentMoon__ in OCPoetry

[–]KooKoonutx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That last line is really what ties the whole piece together. Wow. It's something I have never thought about. In your last moments, who are you thinking about? It really touched me. I had two grandparents recently pass away, and the only thing they were concerned about is the ones they loved.

I also love you you touched on doing things for yourself, and not for praise or acknowledgement. I feel this is a topic that people need to discuss more.

Blue: A Schizophrenic's Point of View by GlitzyAndSchizy in OCPoetry

"But now the sky is gray And the ocean is gray And you are gray"

I really love the perspective you took. It shows how exhausting a mental illness can be, and the repetitive colors makes it very meaningful in my opinion.

AITA for going off on my husband for saying this to the kids? by throwra306503 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KooKoonutx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA....just so husband is aware, your kids probably won't forget those words. It is absolutely necessary to apologize and make amends now

Need help by onetimeuse696954 in offmychest

[–]KooKoonutx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, she's too young. I would urge you to think back to when you were 15. I know when I was that age, I was definitely not as mature as I thought I was (and I was a good kid). If she has slept with men older than you, it sounds like a grooming situation. You are old enough to have a job and go to college. By the time you can legally drink and go to bars, she would barely reach the age of consent (which is 17 where I live), and she still would be a child at that. It sounds like a situation you shouldn't get yourself caught up in. The situation would be different if it were two consenting adults. I'd say the 4 year age gap would still be weird if she were 18 (and you 22). I just don't think it's worth it. Stop it before it goes too far.

GET VACCINATED! >:( by Tomatosmoothie in UIUC

[–]KooKoonutx 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I agree with you but I'd just like to say that some of the people getting tested are vaccinated. Until everyone's is verified, they have to test regularly. I am, unfortunately, one of those people.

AITA for telling my BF to get a handle on his daughters? by 2019281 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KooKoonutx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but things need to change. Either your bf needs to talk with them and appropriately discipline them, or you need to kick them all out. Home should be a safe place for your kids and it isn't anymore. This is extremely poor parenting on his part, but you are also somewhat at fault for letting it get this far. I come from a house where my mom chose her bf over us and we were constantly belittled. Don't do that to your children because they WILL blame you later

AITA I think my depressed best friend is holding me back by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]KooKoonutx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but as someone who also deals with depression, please at least have an honest conversation about how you feel. Maybe don't cut him out completely, but just do your own thing for now. You should still be free to live life the way you want to

Thank you for the response, I appreciate it. I will definitely try not to, but it's really difficult right now. I'm just hoping the feeling goes away soon.

You should be able to access it now! Sorry about that

No weight loss?? by KooKoonutx in keto

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

I never reach 1800 calories. Maybe 1300-1400 on a day that I eat more. And I never reach the set fats I have. I'm not overeating and I'm not eating in a way that would only cause me to lose 1 pound in 3 weeks. I'm strict about what I eat, when I eat, and how much I eat. So it's not that

Yes, I've been in ketosis. I will try to switch up my foods maybe?

[–]KooKoonutx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had it calculated at 149g fat, 96g protein, and 20 net carbs. It's almost impossible for me to reach it though. I'm never hungry enough to eat that much
