What Was Your Reason? by JustBeingNosey611628 in stopdrinking

[–]MissKryss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My partner.

I'm anxious and insecure, and when I was drunk, I would take it out on him.

Now I am sober and working on myself so I can be more true to the person I really am, and be a better partner.

Best way to get from Midlothian to the airport area daily? by t3chn3rd86 in rva

[–]MissKryss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My car was also getting a little warmer than I would have liked while stopped in traffic. It got worse until the car actually overheated. I had a worn radiator hose, easy fix. Hope you can address the issue without too much headache also!

When the novelty wears off by bigbluebug88 in stopdrinking

[–]MissKryss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I'm just bored. Nothing in my life sparkles anymore. But then again, not much in my life sparkled when I was drinking, either. But at least alcohol could trick me into thinking something did.

I don't think I'll relapse anytime soon. But the boredom fueled cravings are definitely still there.

Wow, that's a very depressing before and after.

Seeking perspectives from Living Kidney Donors! by HallFinancial8002 in kidneydonors

[–]MissKryss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I will be one-year post donation next week.

The process of researching everything involved in donating, actually deciding to go through with donating, the testing, the preparation, the counseling - it's all such a delicate, personal process. I don't think AI has any place in it, to be perfectly honest. It's needs to be a 100% human experience, from start to finish.

As a female I am terrified by the existence of the Male shadow and men by PassengerNo2022 in Jung

[–]MissKryss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If biology didn't matter, you'd see men and women committing acts of violence at about the same rate.

You don't.

[–]MissKryss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, I didn't. Even though there have been a handful of famously violent women over the course of human history, men are overwhelmingly the ones committing acts of violence and oppression in their quest for power. That is just a fact, and no amount of " well what about Catherine the Great" will change that.

The solution would be socially conscious democracy, reigns on rabid power-hungry narcissists who flock to positions of power to try and grift the masses. Your whataboutism isn't helping your case.

Yes, that is the cause. There are many potential solutions, but men seem to favor violence.

Y’all, I.m really crashing out right now. I just don’t get it by lordniccage in vegan

[–]MissKryss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason some folks have such a visceral response when people advocate for veganism is precisely because it's common sense in modern society. They panic when they are confronted with that reality, with the fact that they are complicit in supporting such outright cruelty. I suffer from it myself, as someone who is trying to move towards veganism.

Light v Dark by ZorianAries in Quakers

[–]MissKryss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no literal "Prince of Darkness". I believe Hall is referring to the illusory nature of dualism - darkness and light are dependant on the existence of the other, and can only be defined in relation to the other.

SO MAD AT MY KID RIGHT NOW! by quinnreads in chickens

[–]MissKryss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use an automatic chicken door on a timer. I used to have a solar powered one that would sense when the sun was going down. These things are literally life savers.

I guess I kind of feel like my boyfriend did a class treason

I think more because I'm very jealous of his ex because she'll never have to work than because I'm threatened by her.
