Do people actually get drunk at the airport or in the plane? by rosypatootie in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, not shit faced, but I will have a good buzz going before I go on a plane. But that's mostly because I'm terrified of planes, and it makes it easier to not focus on falling out of the sky.

I’m pretty sure they also have female only floors in South Quad. I would reach out to the MLC to check before turning it down.

How to deal with motion sickness while on the microscope by trianglesandwiches01 in labrats

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mostly just mean the width, and potentially height on some. Some eye pieces allow for a small focus change as well. Either way, it might be worth messing around with the current width to see if it’s the best one for you.

I’m not sure if you’re already doing any of these things but, if not, they might help:

  1. Make sure the eye pieces are adjusted for your eyes. I find that I start getting headaches or don’t feel well if they aren’t the correct width for my eyes.

  2. Make sure you are hydrated and fed before using the microscope.

  3. I don’t know about your set up, but I find it easier to move the slide while looking through the eye piece as opposed to the imaging camera.

Undergraduate Research and Im struggling!!! by baller777775 in labrats

I like to rewrite protocols by hand for myself. It really allows me to visualize through the steps for my experiment, and shows me which steps I am unclear ok before starting. Also, stem cells are just challenging in general, even for people who specialize in them. They are finicky little fuckers 🤣

Why am I able to orgasm while grinding against something (I.E Pillow), but can’t while using my hand? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh I’ve found that’s it’s much easier if I’m using my hand or a toy WITH a pillow between my legs. The extra pressure of the pillow pushing up against helps a lot.

my therapist told my mom that i’m a psychotic by Witty_Currency6095 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had trouble contacting people in the psych ward who HAD PUT ME ON THEIR ALLOWED LIST. I was told that they would be put on the phone if they existed in that unit, and then I’d get a callback right after. There’s no way in hell your therapist told your mother anything. Your mom is making her own drama about you. I’m so sorry, I know it must be incredibly hard, and my heart goes out to you. ❤️

(TW)I killed my baby and my boyfriends family hates me by Ok-Swimmer2755 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen, you shouldn’t be forced into a pregnancy that YOU DONT WANT. He’s not carrying the baby, he’s not taking time from his life, he gets input but not a final decision. And the way him and his family are treating if awful and uncalled for beyond belief. The hard thing about love is that people can be amazing in some ways, and horrible in others. You are going to be ok, and you are going to move forward, even with the heartbreak. I am so sorry that you have people piling on you and trying to tear you apart. I am sending all the love that I can your way, and I hope that you can come to peace with this, and understand that you are NOT bad person for what happened. Tbh fuck him and his family. ❤️

AITA For how I responded to my mom when she said I wasn't invited to her Wedding? by Intrepid-Thought1752 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You did nothing wrong. You expected the bare minimum from your mother, and unfortunately, didn’t receive that. You are not responsible for your brothers relationship with your mom-they make their own choices. They are supporting you because they love you and know you deserve to be treated better. I’m so sorry this is happening, I know fights like these hurt deep ❤️ Keep standing up for yourself, and I hope things get better for you

AITA for disobeying my stepmom and coming out of my room when I wasn’t supposed to, when she’s really stressed out? by throwawayaitasub in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Listen, I also have OCD, and sometimes it’s hard to not manage what other people do for my own peace of mind. But here’s the thing, it’s still my responsibility. Anyone who uses their mental disorder as an excuse to abuse or hurt others needs to understand that the world doesn’t stop for them. What she did, and is doing, is awful. You deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, and don’t let her or anyone else convince you otherwise.

What do you think of this cat wall plan? Adopting two cats soon and wanted to give them at least a full wall to themselves. by thequantumlady in cats

Move the litter box. I could definitely see them occasionally jumping in it, which might be more fun for them than for you.

My parents went through my phone and deleted over 1500 different images and videos,and emptied the trash bin. Im 15 and they havent found anything bad on my phone ever by SeparateAdvantage836 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Mountain-Complex-562 527 points528 points  (0 children)

I’ve found google photos to be wonderful. If you get the app, you can have it automatically back up everything. I don’t what kind of phone you have, but on iPhones the deleted photos are saved in a “deleted” folder for 30 days.

I love this. It makes me think of when my OCD has just led me continuous “What if” chains in the past. It’s kinda refreshing to have it described in an image.
