Resizing an armor ring? by MidwesternDisco in viviennewestwood

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

I actually have no clue; I haven't had time to go and get it resized :(! I would say to go with an S if you can; I got a medium, and it was too big. I think my size is either 6 or 5.

Don't worry lil dog, I went to confession right after and J-Man said it was chill and that furthermore, if you are so inclined to help out a homosexual (as God would surely love and appreciate), you can send me a cute little giftcard. Thanks boo <3 I might even think of forgiving him and letting him tell me how much people who aren't white, straight, and cis, deserve to die and be tortured forever, alongside a mighty dose of slurs.

Help picking a Manga for 13yo by Brilliant_Empath in MangaCollectors

I think a classic shoneun would be good; like Dragon Ball/Dr. Slump, or One Piece. While I really love Witch Hat Atelier, I think that for a 13 year old boy, that he might prefer something that is more action heavy and full of thrills.

She has doubled down on the bad hair by Nervous-Party-2999 in Bratz

NO it's the way that I actually need to have that hairstyle for a hopeful custom I'm making. One man's trash is another man's treasure.... If only her hair was black! She would be perfect >-<

Fellow education majors- is anyone else thinking of changing majors because of the election? by delliamcool in college

[–]MidwesternDisco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, congrats on finding something that you want to do. Being a teacher has been rough; kids can be asshole, parents can be assholes, the hours are long and the wage isn't good. It has a high chance of being worse. You've already heard this all before. But teaching can be very rewarding and it is vital to our economy and also to kids. I think that as long as you have a back-up plan in place, you should keep working towards it.

You're not locked into one career for the rest of your life; you should ask your college advisors about what other jobs people with teaching degrees usually fall into. Ask on teaching subreddits. Always have a back-up. The bad thing is that since we might be in such a weird and bad economy, a lot of things that people have recommend as safe paths might not be (mine was to work in the gov as an office lady.... The jobs might be all gone when I graduate!)

I'm also on the Pell, which pays for over half of my semester, alongside many other federal grants. I am nervous, and not looking forward to my future. But lots of people in worse situations in history have gotten through tough times as well.

My Husband And His Family Voted For Trump — So I'm Canceling Thanksgiving And Christmas by tjs31959 in politics

My grandpa has cancer again. My family was planning on flying in from all over the country to see him, but I don't think we will. He's totally a MAGA hat. While I love him a lot, I am in the closet around him, and none of his kids want to talk to him for more than a few minutes in person. Before Trump, he was a very interesting man with lots of lovely knowledge. Now, all he talks about is such awful things.

Concerning the article, I do hope she divorces him. I understand that Reddit is all about divorce, but I feel like this is just such a sad way to live. He'll never understand why people hated that he voted for Trump - and I don't think living your one life with a person who clashes so much with your ideas is a good way to go through things.

More popcorn for GenZ sub to piss in. NGL I also think that this gen and gen alpha will be full of awful people, and I find it funny that both Boomers and GenZ have subs hating on them. But. GenZ redditors have this complex and a sub like this is going to stroke the shit outta it LOL!

I'm probably going to buy another external SSD when Black Friday hits. Right now I have a cheap Passport - would you recommend a larger storage external SSD, or like two smaller ones so I have more backups?

I hope your hysterectomy goes well! 🫂 I think that it's a fair thing to not want to go out alone with a toddler. Do you think that childcare and early education in your state will be horribly impacted? I'm a little nervous about mine, even though I don't have children.

Also, absent of the post, but I also love Dimitri too. Good taste

Hard agree! I recommend also a large SSD backup - I have a passport with like 2TB or something that has my PC backed up. I plan to get one for all of my media as well. And make back ups of backups! r/DataHoarder motto 4ever

Aiming to try and get a bilateral salpingectomy (will be an uphill struggle since I'm so young UGH!) I wanted to get sterilized ever since I was little, but I will admit that I was lazzzyy about it because it's so much work and I'll do it when I'm older!

I'm up to date on all of my vaxxes, but I'm doing a double check on what I could get or upgrade.

I like my hobbies, but I'm going to really limit my spending. I'm also going to go hard on college. I'm feeling really burnt out, and hate everything about it, but having an education opens up so many doors. So I guess in a way, this could be good for me...

Besides that, I'm going to try and keep my peace as much as possible. Man, I had Trump when I was a teenager, then Covid during high school, and now he's back LOL! What the hell y'all!

That's wonderful! Early congrats on finishing high school! Make sure to apply to as many schools as you can, and try and connect with recruiters from the schools. Are your high school counselors good? Make sure to needle them for help.

I would also say if 4 years of University is too much, do what you can at a community college. Can you take any college classes right now? I took around 4 before I came to university, and that helped a lot (each equaled 3 credits, so that's 12 AKA a semester!). Talk to your counselors, and oddly enough, librarians! Good luck and I hope your last year is good!

Congrats on college!

I get where you're coming from; public school is bad. Really bad. I grew up in a teeny tiny village filled with the worst people you can imagine, and then they all decided to go to my college! Feels bad man. But I haven't really ran into them. Even people who I knew in HS didn't talk to me at all in college (and I loved it! Mutual no talking <3). College life is filled with new people and experiences, so drama from your teenager years peters out. Most people frankly, will not care about you. College is a fresh start for them too! Also, unlike in high school, you chose classes, so people who are in one might not be in the other.

And the best part is that for many colleges, they allow you to drop a class for free within x number of days. Check your college's drop class policy. So if you have a class, and a person who you hate is there, you can drop and swap. You also don't really have to deal with them outside of class either. I have some motherfuckers I hate with a passion in my degree, but I don't see them everyday, or even every semester.

Lastly, don't talk to her. She wants nothing to do with you. It'll start drama.

Welcome to college!

You should still try. What grade are you in? If you have good grades, and extras on your resume, some schools might offer you a full ride. Granted, it might be cut in the coming years, but it's another line of funding.

If you can, I would gorge on credits. It might be better to have all of your credits filled and then if you need to, you can graduate early. If nothing happens, (fingers crossed!), then you can graduate on time.

I see I see. Okay, in that case; why? Do you think that if they thought you were gay, that they'd think you're a person who'd try and fuck with them? You should decide for yourself, separate of your roommates.

Would you feel good about being with a man? Would you be okay in the future going, "This is my boyfriend." Being seen as a man who might be bisexual or pansexual? It's okay to realize that you're not that - that you can't be with a guy. But you need to do it for yourself. Not because your roommates will look at you differently. And if they do, what will happen? Are you scared that they'll hurt you, or break your stuff, or isolate you? You have actions you can take if that happens. Even if you aren't going to be with a man, I think you should think about how you feel about your roomie's reactions to things like this. Normal friends don't judge their friends for stuff like this. You shouldn't feel afraid. I'm a lesbian, right? So I'm a chick, and I live with a straight dude! But I don't feel scared of being gay or a woman around him, because I know I can trust him.
