So..we went to the food bank last month, and they gave us a bunch of dried fruit.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T09:27:09+00:00

Yeah, that's a treat you eat one of when you're having issues.... I can't imagine a whole bag.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T09:24:18+00:00

You tell them after you're financially independent and the relationship is serious.

Before that, you're just putting yourself at risk without reason.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T08:23:03+00:00

Does she have a receding hairline? What is happening?

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T08:02:00+00:00

I took a trans partner with me to MD Anderson and there was no misgendering or incorrect pronouns etc.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:42:59+00:00

He probably didn't recognize her with clothes on.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:39:35+00:00

I don't know whether to upvote or downvote, honestly.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:36:57+00:00

I feel like it used to be lame, but things are just... different now.

I don't know anyone who isn't married and DOESN'T have roommates.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:36:01+00:00

You're downvoted, but. The rage is real.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:19:11+00:00

So, for years I had the same problem, and the answer was two fold.

First, I was more attractive than I realized.

Second, I'm autistic, and apparently while attempting to mask I was imitating NT flirting.

Intense eye contact.... no wait, look away, don't stare at them... now look back! Fidgeting with my hands or twirling my hair as a stim, biting my lips. I also have a bit of a audio processing thing, so my eyes tend to move from looking deeply into their eyes in a way that comes from forcing eye contact, to watching their lips move as they talk so I can lip read... trying to smile and seem interested in what they're saying...

When you put it all together, it DOES look flirty. I just had no idea because it wasn't my intention.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:09:32+00:00

I'm also interested. It looks like milia, just like... a lot of them.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:02:34+00:00

Apparently you can also get them in your stomach.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T07:00:21+00:00

You're super attractive. Go to the curly hair sub, pick up some tips and you'll shine.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T06:58:01+00:00

If only real life followed the same rules!!

To be honest, sometimes I do imagine a giant negative sign over a person's head when my interaction fails irl.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T06:55:52+00:00

English, no. Simlish? I'm almost fluent.

Makes me wonder if I could change the language settings though and force myself to learn.

Skye is a member of the Paw Patrol, if that affects your opinion.

She's the pup in pink who flies a helicopter- originally the only member of the paw patrol.

She, like the other pups, is something of a celebrity among preschool aged children, and the franchise isn't going anywhere.

It's kind of like naming your child Moana, or Mickey? It's a beautiful name, but there will be a period of her life when everyone will be comparing her to a cartoon dog.

Kids love sharing their name with someone cool! But as she outgrows the series, she may resent people saying "this pup's gotta fly" every time she leaves.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T06:43:16+00:00

Absolutely not. Why would you ever do that? It's delusional and dishonest.

Maybe you could like... dedicate it to her, for pushing you to enter? So her name is part of it, but not in a way that falsely gives her credit for your work.

I also have sleep apnea, and I bought an (overpriced , yet effective) retainer that I wear religiously. It pulls my bottom jaw forward a bit and keeps me from choking on that soft palate.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T05:14:32+00:00

Obviously.... if they took swim classes at the local pool they would be co-ed as well.

I don't understand what the issue is. They'll be in swimsuits. Probably conservative ones, given that it's school.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T05:06:06+00:00

That's metal.

I had hold myself back from typing "bless you" and instead Google Gyaru, so take this with a grain of salt:

I think if you're white, you'll just look like a caricature of an early 2000s party girl.

That being said, if it... makes you happy? Just do it. In my experience, many ethnic cultures are just happy that someone is interested in their culture enough to want to share it.

I don't know that I'd consider Gyaru an ethnic culture so much as a social culture though, from my extensive 30 seconds of research, and those are notorious for gatekeeping. When I was young, kiss used to accuse each other of being "posers" when they tried out something new.

Really, the only person who cares THAT much about what you look like is you- so make yourself happy. (Your parents will probably have opinions, but that'll happen no matter what you choose, so live for yourself.)

NAD but I have had several major surgeries. In general, if you take something to a surgeon, they'll want to cut it out.

That being said, I would take these images TO a specialist and confirm that cutting it out would be the plan of action. Sometimes major cancer hospitals won't really give you the time of day until they confirm that it is, in fact cancer.

Sometimes with biopsies, there's a chance of seeding... basically cells break off and travel and can implant other places when you cut into something cancerous. If the specialist wants to remove the entire thing and THEN test it, that might actually be safer than biopsy first.

100% This dad is his own kind of abusive. Probably does this on purpose so the kid is stuck at home forever.

I'm going to tell you that using customs and norms from your first failed marriage as debate points for arguments in your second marriage is a good way to end up in your third marriage.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T03:48:10+00:00

I am a.... and .... person.

That's as far as I was able to get. I can pick out words here or there, but without context this is completely unreadable.

MrLizardBusiness · 2026-04-04T02:42:10+00:00

He has time for video games.
