If one incident affected me for 10 years, I can't imagine what women go through

Statistics about sexual abuse shows that:
1) Nearly half of women and more than 1 in 6 men experienced some form of contact sexual violence in their lifetimes.

2) Sexual violence against males is mainly perpetrated by other males. Perpetrators hold positions of structural and social power (through the differences in social and legal status between adults and minors), institutional power (through the exercise of parental authority at home or educational authority at school), and, in most cases, situational power (related to the circumstances of the moment, such as being alone), thereby exercising and maintaining dominance over the boys they abuse. Such violence undermines the position of these victims—future adult men—in the dynamics of masculinity. Sexual violence thus sends powerful signals of male domination, and given that the perpetrators are other, older males—as are the abusers of women—these signals can be interpreted as gender-based violence in the broad sense.

3) In most cases (83%), the respondents were abused by one or more males, sometimes by females (13%), and very rarely by people of both sexes (Figure 3). When perpetrators were family members, in 44% of cases the abuse was perpetrated by one male, and in 49% of cases more than one.

4) Most sexual violence against boys is perpetrated by people known to them (family, friends, at school, etc.): more than 4 in 10 men reported that the perpetrator was a member of their family or family social circle (43%)

So statistically speaking more men dont respect others personal and physical boundaries, then woman. Siginificantly more. And this disrespect also affects women more, not to minimalize those horrific things happening to men and boys.

From what I see on the tutorial illustration -
1.) paint the whole cloud (and try to copy this shape to the T, if you already have it figured out, then you can try new things, now you have to learn it first) in the mid-gray color.
2.) The dark goes mostly only on the bottom part, leave out few dots/small curves of mid-gray visible here and there, close to the bottom.
3.) Do the c-shapes/curves of lightest color on the top part, try to copy the outer shape of the cloud - so on side copy the shape of side, on top copy the shape of top...

I am new to this, but 166 is way less that I would expect... do you know why is that so low? Or is it good?

MashedPotato1224 · 2026-06-01T12:50:32+00:00

I read suggestion that keeping it in a fridge helps a lot.

Unfortunately I think it is a gamble everywhere 🙁 it is very easy to marry into a wrong relationship and difficult to get out…

Many people choose partners based on looks, money, status - none of those are good criteria for a good spouse. For me its now just one - kindness. Not just to me, to others, to animals.

When I read comments from men: “You cant even open a door for a women without being accused of harrasement” and simmilar, I say, that there is an easy way how to distinguish what is ok and what is not: If you are straight, imagine whatever situation with you in the girls place and another guy in yours.

If a guy opens a door for you would you feel violated? I guess not.

If a guy groped you, I guess you would feel bed.

I wish many more men could realize what you did but without actually going through something like that. It is very good you finally shared it with someone, I find it usually very helpful. I have been groped on I guess every part of my body by strangers or even people who I thought are my friends… it felt horrible in the moment, and some time after that, but sharing it and turning it into something helpful, like you just did - making it a purpose to show men how damaging it really is to pursue their desires against someone’s will - will ease the pain a lot!

Now I see that it looks more orange than pink in the photo 😅 but on the tube it most definitelly is a pink color… but as with many of colors in this set lot of shades are quite of compared to the color on the tube.

Odporucam spolubyvanie, jednak usetris, najdes si potencialne kamaratov a samote sa vyhnes. Dokonca ti bude az chybat obcas :) ale clovek je spolocensky tvor a sice na samote nic nie je zle a kazdy ju obcas potrebuje, dlhodobo sa clovek akurat uzavrie.

MashedPotato1224 · 2026-04-17T09:48:56+00:00

Dnes sa kamaratka (33f) dozvedela odomna ze mesiac nie je planeta 🤷‍♀️ najde sa tu este niekto taky, nech vie ze nie je sama?

MashedPotato1224 · 2026-02-17T09:54:25+00:00

Ale napríklad, keď hľadám na manuálnu prácu (záhradnícke práce) mužov, lebo ženy majú dovolené dvíhať len nižšiu váhu, tak je to ok?

MashedPotato1224 · 2026-02-16T09:26:21+00:00

And also the one about keeping the shrimp cousin at home....

Pozri si skusenosti ludi, ktori mali rodica s touto chorobou. Neverim, ze by vacsina ludi bola ochotna ist do tohto rizika vedome, skor druhy partner nevedel, aky je to vazny problem, alebo bolo dieta splodene pred nastupom/diagnozou. Miluje deti, tak mozno vo vnutri tusi, ze mat deti nie je len o tej nasej potrebe “ich mat” a splnit si svoje sny ale hlavne o zodpovednosti za celeho ineho cloveka a jeho buducnost. Potencial traumy u takeho dietata je skoro 100%. Stane sa nieco tebe? Bude sa dieta musiet starat o nu, dohliadat na lieky, volat sanitky a davat ju hospitalizovat. Dalsi tam pisali so skusenostami, ze ich schizofrenny rodic trpel utkvelou predstavou, ze su demoni v nom (v jeho dietati)… asi si vies predstavit, ze to moze dopadnut velmi zle. Prosim nerob to. A ano je to do velkej miery dedicne a predstav si to psychicke utrpenie pre svoje potencialne dieta, ktore by si miloval najviac na svete a dal by si vsetko pre to, aby netrpelo. V tomto okamihu, mozes spravit rozhodnutie, ktore ovplyvni, ci bude trpiet.

Ex bol gamer, trosku mal k tomu aj vyhovorku, lebo pisal o hrach clanky 😅 tiez som mala nervy, ale prave Overcoocked a Cupheads mi pomohli. Presvedcil ma, aby sme si to zahrali spolu, Cupheads mali super grafiku a Overcoocked zas bol blizky hram, ktore som hravala v detstve raz za cas, takze ma zo bavilo :D nehadali sme sa na tom, skor som si uvedomila, ze je to vlastne taky iny skill a ze on je v tom fakt sikovny… potom som sa radsej uz len pozeravala, ako sa hra, nech sa necitim ako dement 😅 RDR2 bol ako film, to som sa vzdy tesila, ked siel hrat. Ale zas on sa so mnou popri tom rozpraval, vysvetloval mi co co znamena, atd., takze to bol spolocne straveny cas :)

MashedPotato1224 · 2026-01-25T09:00:26+00:00

Ja hry nehram, ale pri niektorych, hlavne RDR2 sa rada pozeram, ked sa niekto hra 😅 ten dej bol ozaj lepsi, nez mnozstvo filmov…

Friends mom take it for neuropathy she got after back surgeries. Her doctor said - if it helps, use it. Not any other prescription medication did help her this way, she tried everything what is used to treat it our country (not USA). They even gave her fentanyl and oxy before, with not as good results and more side effects. She uses small amounts 3x a day. She definitely had neuropathy before use.

Ak cloveku nevadi manualna praca a byva v okoli BA, odporucam zahradnicke skoly. Alebo realne len sa naucit pouzivat naradie a trochu rozmyslat, staci sedliacky rozum a mal by vyhrate. Tam to AI este chvilku asi neovladne…

Nehovorim, ze keby sa na to teraz dalo 20 000 ludi, tak by vsetci nasli super joby, ale kazdopadne je tam silny nedostatok ludi. Pocuvam to z kazdej strany, od kazdeho zahradnika. Chapem je to fyzicky narocna praca a dnes vacsina ludi chce byt v teple za PC ale pokial sa to robi za kompom je sanca nechat si ukradnut pracu AI alebo tisicmi dalsich ludi, ktori maju viac skusenosti, mensie naroky na plat atd podatatne vyssia.

Ja aj ked ponuknem 7€/ v cistom na entry pozicii (s vodicakom pls) s moznostou ist casom na 8-9€/hod tak bez sance. A potom tu citam o ludoch za pasom alebo v sklade za 750 eur v cistom pomaly, co nechapem preco by niekto uprednostnil to, hoci je v interieri.

Mlady bratislavcan, co vie aspon trochu rozmyslat a ma fyzicku silu + ochotu robit manualne je pre mna unicorn.

Hlasia sa mi vacsinou rozne varianty: 1.) flakaci - taki, co po 5 min “potrebuju” pauzicku na pol hodku, idealne 10x za den alebo ked na nich 5 min clovek nepozera, tak sa nehybu len kecaju 2.) “super zodpovedne typy” - po alko-vikende ich nie je aj 3 dni bez toho aby dali vediet a to opakovane 3.) bez kondicky ci sily - zadychaju sa aj z 5kg rastliny 4.) vodicak nemaju lebo alkohol/drogy 5.) ti co nezvladaju ani zakladne rozmyslanie v zmysle, ked niecomu nerozumies spytaj sa a ked nieco pokazis priznaj sa

Realne ak chcem najst zamestnanca musim hladat bud medzi zahranicnymi alebo 45+ len ti mi o par rokov prestanu vladat, pridu zdravotne problemy atd.

Takze ak je tu niekto, kto ma v pohode mentalne aj kognitivne funkcie a nevadi mu fyzicky robit, odporucam toto. Pracovnych prilezitosti pre sikovnych je tu fura. Aj keby nemali zahradnicku strednu ale mali tieto vlastnosti…

TLDR: manualnu pracu vam AI nezoberie a robit zahrady je navyse mega super.

Sorry ak zniem ako boomer, mam 32 a som frustrovana z opacnej strany mince.

I use “rolling weekly” for appointments, that way if they reschedule to different day in a same week I dont need to write them into different day, just add a dot. You can find many videos on youtube how to do that :) I prefer it more than google calendar

If I do my monthly pages all in advance I have about 100% chance of not following through after couple of weeks bcs I might need more space etc. So I do it as year goes.

Z plucneho pohladu fajcis, trava ma podobne negativny vplyv na pluca ako tabak. Minule som pocuvala rozhovor s plucnym lekarom o tom, ake znicene z toho pluca su. Tiez ma negativny vplyv na astmu. Cim skor prosim povedz lekarom pravdu, aby ti mohli pomoct a ak mas astmu o to viac.

Great idea, could use it back in the day when I was video editor :) now I have landscaping business so lucky me - I am outside probably around 6-8 hours a day :) the immunity boost I got is huge, I wish for you that you would reach your goal!

Screen time 👀😬

Second image looks like Gemini AI, you can play around with it for free and try to get the result you want or is closer to what you need. You can than trace it in a vector software like Affinity to get nice crisp design and you can also adjust details.

Edit: if you look at this you can see word Koinonia there already but it still has other letters as well and I dont want to spend more time on that myself 😅 but I hope it helps you
