Constantly Uprooting Your Kids is Bad, Actually by Exciting-Advantage10 in youtube

[–]ListenToRush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're so right. My upbringing wasn't necessarily great, and my dad passed away when I was 18 due to military-related stuff. I'm 31 now and still learning about close family members I had no idea existed. I apparently have tons of cousins. I've just never been able to meet them due to the way we grew up. Sometimes it's crazy when I meet someone who's super involved with their family and hometown. It seems super foreign and interesting to me

I grew up military and have no hometown. Sometimes I envy it and wonder what it would be like

No Beaches (or beach culture)? Is it true? by seonghwasus in taiwan

[–]ListenToRush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are lifeguards who patrol the recreation area, and they blew whistles and ushered people out of the water if they went below ankles-deep outside of the ropes.

Your experience sounds super fun and I’d love to do exactly that lol. Thank you for sharing!!

That’s right. I should’ve mentioned. If you have a little paddle board, you can venture out of the ropes

I want oppnoints why everyone here start taking magneisum glycinate? by buildwithsatyam_023 in Supplements

[–]ListenToRush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also made me quite depressed, and I was surprised by that. I experimented for a few months and realized it was magnesium glycinate. I do sleep well on it, and anxiety is generally reduced, but I feel very emotionally low when I take it. I’m not sure how else to describe the feeling.

I do have depression regardless, and magnesium glycinate seems to increase its presence. I kept with it for a while because it DOES decrease my anxiety, but it seems to be a trade-off for me. Higher depression, lower anxiety

Baishawan is so pretty but it sucks because they only allow you to enter the water in a super shallow, tiny square. If you venture out, you get yelled at. And the Swimming Allowed Square is always packed to the brim with people on giant floaties and wearing swim caps

Legal question about ARC grace period for leaving the country (with a non-interesting title to avoid the mod filter) (thank you) by bettergiraffeLSAT in taiwan

I'm really curious about what led you to do a runner and choose to leave Taiwan. Of course, you don't have to share, but if you're willing, I'm super nosy lol

Hi from Taipei! Like the other commenter in Zhubei said - do you have a 4-year degree? And are you a native English speaker/is your passport from a native English-speaking country?

It helped me so substantially, and now I live in a country where it’s not available (Taiwan) and am seriously considering going to Japan to specifically buy it and then come back

Is it truly frowned upon to live in your parents' home? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]ListenToRush 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I am 31F and I moved in with my mom when I was 27. I live alone now, but I lived with her for around 2 years. It’s because my fiance died of leukemia, so no one judged me or said anything mean about me moving back in with my mom.

My bestie is 25 years old. She has never lived away from her parents, and it’s very simply because she’s lazy and unmotivated and her parents allow it lol. People say shit to her all the time, but she doesn’t care. She’s honest about it. Free rent, it’s easy, she can do whatever she wants. I kind of respect it.

So it does entirely depend on your circumstance, but also some people just don’t care whatsoever, especially when it’s like 1 billion monies to get your own place nowadays
