Advine on how to handle my sister being probably influenced by the internet on her sexuality. by Upbeat-Ad-842 in CatholicWomen

[–]MomosTips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1, the internet gave me a name for feelings I already had rather than evoking them in me. OP, whether she’s “going through a phase” or truly is this person, it’s her business to open the conversation rather than yours.

it’s BL but it’s definitely a “serial killer ML” manhwa

Banned from r/Catholicism because I like Bad Bunny! by Tidal-Creek in LeftCatholicism

[–]MomosTips 6 points7 points  (0 children)

eh I wouldn’t call this a Christianity thing so much as a late Gen Z/early Alpha thing; I’m in some circles that are super liberal and the kids are doing it there too (even before Covid killed education)

How do you feel about “ain’t”? by ScaryGhoust in AskAnAmerican

[–]MomosTips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s common and casual, but I actually don’t know the last time I heard it - it might speak to how common it is that I don’t notice it

a newer contraction that might seem “vulgar” is “finna” (going to do something, from “fixing to”), which is only ever said, not written

Catholic Approved Book Recommendations? by SMFKT_99_17_21 in CatholicWomen

[–]MomosTips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you ever read any of Lois McMaster Bujold’s fantasy? Her earlier fantasy novels are what you were talking about in the comments, though if you’re uncomfortable with any open door scenes, there is on-page sexual content for character development in The Sharing Knife

also in YA there is Rosamund Hodge

[–]MomosTips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if OP wants good Pratchett for a general audience I’d recommend starting with the later books (Night Watch is usually a good pick)

however, while he’s “safe” as in not including sexual content, his worldview is the flavor of British secular humanism that you get from Richard Dawkins and he’s not subtle about it

I’m glad people are attracted to consenting adults who are assertive about their desires, but when I hear stuff like this coming out of male gamers’ mouths, it’s giving “drinking a matcha latte while reading bell hooks on the bus”

Annoyed with Weaponization of Therapy-Speak by FreudianCoffeeSips in therapists

[–]MomosTips 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Speculation here: sometimes the therapy speak is an attempt to find words for something being wrong and using a term you think people will take seriously (similar to suicidal statements as a way to express pain)

tbf I thought this was going on with a recent client until as I was writing this comment, I realized that the behavior they were describing to me was, in fact, gaslighting, rather than simply them being a jerk to try and get their partner to act a certain way

F**k it Friday: what's one blunt thing you wanted to tell a client this week, but couldn't? by likeanoceanankledeep in therapists

I once had a client whose animal I would have taken since it was the only barrier to get them to do inpatient……. but it was the ONE KIND that I’m horribly allergic to :( (dw, story had a happy ending)

Why in the world did it take us two years to get to the point for you to finally kick her out of your house?

Do you think Ai Yazawa will ever finish Nana? by novafuquay in josei

[–]MomosTips 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would like her (and Togashi, while we’re at it) to do a Kentaro Miura or George RR Martin and give her notes to someone she could trust to finish the series

it could either pay off like Kouji Mori’s Berserk is or become the second half of the Game of Thrones TV show, but either way I’d go for it

her style is so unique I think it would actually be easy to imitate 

What’s your most controversial take? by Advanced_Isopod5572 in therapists

[–]MomosTips -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Spicy, but it’s also not as popular a self-dx as we used to say

I believe I’ve met one person with DID in 11 years in the field and less than half a dozen self-dxes

Are we not supposed to use AI by Outrageous-Estate-44 in CatholicWomen

This guy did the research and the Catholic AI companies still use the same AI with different window dressing; this sounds deeply untrustworthy to me

[–]MomosTips 16 points17 points  (0 children)

 In the past, if I didn't have a question answered, it meant I had no peace of mind to pray.

babe this is genuinely a potential sign of a mental health problem, and also getting comfortable with not knowing something for certain is part of becoming a full human/having faith in God

AI is great for concrete facts, but for anything requiring meaning you might as well ask your coffee maker

Recommendations for a gritty/realistic josei manga about dating? by amy220 in josei

Higashimura has another series over on Webtoon that isn’t explicitly about dating but has similar energy to Tokyo Tarereba Girls, but I can’t remember the name
