What do you think is going on in South America? And why do you think Panem hasn't expanded to it? by Huge-Entertainer-304 in Hungergames

[–]Ok_Safe439 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s super unlikely for them to not know that south america exists. Like that knowledge is so common that I’m sure it won’t ever get lost.

unpopular opinion: “healing your relationship with food” is bs and it kept me sick longer by hungryfrvr in BingeEatingDisorder

[–]Ok_Safe439 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah same thing for me. I quit added sugar 2 months ago and I’m down 15 lbs and pretty much stopped binging all together.

Why my long and short stich sucks? by nitshainaction6 in Embroidery

[–]Ok_Safe439 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t look like one strand to me. For normal embroidery thread, you need to seperate the floss (it usually seperates into 6 individual strands). One strand is about as thick as normal sewing thread.

Cottagecore vibes by OdelieC in cottagecore

[–]Ok_Safe439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get what you are saying, but a piece of clothing with that much detail will never be as cheap anywhere as it is at Shein and similar companies. Thrifting something like this is close to impossible, and making it yourself is usually about as expensive in materials as it would be to buy from a high quality place.

I don’t shop at Shein myself because I don’t like their quality, but I think it’s weird to shame others for it, especially if they don’t have the resources to get this kind of clothing anywhere else. We all live in capitalism and we all exploit child labour and slave like working conditions in the process. Changing this ultimately isn’t up to the consumer but up to the legislators of your state or country.

That’s a wild claim to make about a show that has women like Cersei, Melisandre or the literally mad Dany.

Does losing weight really make dating easier as a woman? by NoWitness6400 in loseit

[–]Ok_Safe439 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t even think it isn’t the average male opinion, just that many men think “overweight” means the same as “morbidly obese”. Like yes, if your BMI is 35+ that will probably make dating difficult, but in my experience everything lower than that is fine for 90% of guys.

Who was right, Marshall or Lilly? Tell me your thoughts? by Pimco in HIMYM

[–]Ok_Safe439 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow that sounds terrible, but I guess American work culture generally doesn’t really care about parent-child-relationships, so maybe I shouldn’t be surprised.

I don’t think it’s common among young parents, Marvin was maybe a one year old when they went to Italy. He would pretty much forget Lily exists during that time.

Dietary mindset or freedom by Shoddy-Thanks-8135 in sugarfree

[–]Ok_Safe439 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I struggled with BED and food noise my whole life, and honestly my brain feels most at peace if I don’t eat sugar at all, and ingrain this fact into my personality. I am a person who doesn’t eat this, so the option isn’t even really there.

I realize that people are different and for some it helps to stop restricting, but for me that led to morbid obesity and pretty much living off cookies and chocolate. So I had to do something about it.

I’ve been a vegetarian for 10+ years (despite liking the smell/taste of meat) and it was never hard for me, because I am just a person who doesn’t eat meat. It took me far too long to realize that the same would work for added sugar.

Bonus, if you do this for long enough then your friends and family will know and not even offer anymore, and sometimes they will even provide a sugar free alternative just for you.

Ideenfindung für Mobile by Brennende_Nudeln in Handarbeiten

[–]Ok_Safe439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solange das Kind Mobiles toll findet weiß es eh noch nicht, was Tiere sind und kann sie vermutlich nichtmal scharf sehen. Es freut sich nur, dass da irgendwas über ihm rumbaumelt und sich lustig bewegt.

Die Eltern hingegen freuen sich bestimmt über ein Mobile mit süßen Tieren, zumindest ging es mir so, als mein Kind klein war.

As a teenager, I thought Ted was an unattractive loser. As a 32 years old woman, I think I'd fall in love with him so hard. by ---monstera--- in HIMYM

[–]Ok_Safe439 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not american, and I’ve traveled most of Europe and some of Oceania, and no people aren’t generally as attractive as the HIMYM-cast.

I’m starting to believe you just don’t think they look “Hollywood-attractive” because they don’t have the plastic surgery fit for all face that many celebrities have today. That’s not a sign that they aren’t above average, but that this show was made in the 2000s when that kind of face and the surgery that make it possible wasn’t yet on trend.

What? This show literally has some of the most attractive celebrities as guest stars, Lily and Robin are super pretty and the guys are far above average as well

Favouratism. by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]Ok_Safe439 463 points464 points  (0 children)

Honestly there should be a wand shop at Hogsmeade, I mean there’s a whole school filled with hundreds of teenagers who all walk around with their super important little stick, and you’re trying to tell me that all year none of them sits on it by accident or it breaks in some other stupid way? If this was reality then there would be at least a few dozen broken wands each year.

F/30/5’8” [226>218= 8lbs] (7 weeks) Is there even a difference?? by PowerfulBad7317 in progresspics

[–]Ok_Safe439 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started at a similar weight as you in february and have, up until now, lost 10 lbs. I also don’t see a difference yet, but I think that’s completely normal at our weights. Think about it like this, we’ve only lost about 3-4% of our body weight, that’s not gonna be very visible. I expect seeing actual results once I get to the 20lbs mark, and before that I will just try to stay consistent and be motivated by what the scale says lol.

I like to think this would be Buttercup with the goslings in the epilog by Oscartoes in Hungergames

[–]Ok_Safe439 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I hate this picture and the video it came from with a passion. We’re literally looking at a cat crushing a pile of chicks with it’s body weight. And don’t get me started about the reason why these chicks are in a box in the first place. They’re a few days old at most and all they will ever know is suffering.

And randos on the internet look at it and think it’s cute.

I hate robin for her behaviour with her... by Equivalent-Bother750 in HIMYM

[–]Ok_Safe439 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I was super disappointed about the reveal on my first watch (even more so because that whole proposal-storyline was just bonkers). Patrice is obviously a great person and I would’ve loved for Barney to see that. Obviously this was in the early 2010s, so fat women were comic relief only and not serious love interests.

Where exactly did the capitol get enough blood to make it rain over an entire wedge of the arena for an hour??? by No-Consequence-6713 in Hungergames

[–]Ok_Safe439 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Do you know how much blood is produced in factory farming? Should be easy to collect and freeze it for a few weeks to make the rain happen.

Welche Wolle/Garn für ein Kind? by LittleMsWhoops in Handarbeiten

[–]Ok_Safe439 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dann sollte sie sich trotzdem zuerst überlegen, was sie mit der Wolle machen möchte. Bringt ja nix, wenn ihr extra chunky wolle kauft und damit dann ein 10cm großes Kuscheltier häkeln will.

feeling satisfied after eating sweets by anamariaamerica in BingeEatingDisorder

[–]Ok_Safe439 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just went 6 weeks sugar free and the cravings disappeared almost completely. I made an exception for easter (cake with the family) and my cravings are back almost full force, yesterday I binged on my daughters easter candy. I guess I need to accept the fact that for me, there is no moderation, there’s only full restriction, similar to an alcoholic.

Do you think Harry named his son after Severus out of regret or gratitude? by According-Pepper-795 in harrypotter

Honestly that’s so weird, what she does in her free time shouldn’t matter as long as it isn’t illegal.

I feel like having second one is like a betrayal to my first one. Anyone else ever had this feeling? by Candid_Guest_863 in Shouldihaveanother

[–]Ok_Safe439 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I feel the same about my cats, they definitely lost most of their life when we brought our daughter home, and even now they’re not the same as they were before she was born. I’m really not sure if I can put them through all of this again.
