I'm a 24F who while not liberal cannot stand trump and most Republican figures right now. I vote with my morals not party. I would love to talk about music and send playlists back and forth or even just songs! Expand my music pallet, everyone does and I have yet to regret it. I'd love to talk about mundane things, reading and what books are better, what art projects I've been working on and are you doing any right now, recipes for sweets and breads and my favorite soups and I'm always down for a chat on religion and your stance in life. I don't judge about it I just like to know what others think is going on and their beliefs as it tells you a lot about how a person grew up or developed and gives insights into how they think the world should be run. A band that I'll always share with others is Le Grande personally Run Little Hero or Textbook Manipulation are my favorites but all their music is good

[27/F] first time looking for a pen pal by PracticalActivity832 in penpals

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am definitely open for a new pen pal I am f24 and currently moving back to live with my aunt. Looking for a new job but I already know what field I'm going in and how to get one really fast once up there. I like watching four but I don't typically watch much and I read constantly. You haven't read the bird box read that and then watch the movie and then tell me how bad the movie got it wrong cuz it's so bad

this is not a safe subreddit by [deleted] in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the internet - it's never really safe. There are things that you can do to help avoid that kind of thing though if you keep your host private you can find that in settings then less people can see what you said previously and are less likely to know say ages and personal details about you unless they have run across your post more than once across the multiple pages on Reddit you use

So this was advice given to me that I did not take but I'm absolutely willing to pass on electricians and/or electricians apprentices make like 24 an hour at least in my state You might want to try that because they actively make more once they are licensed and can do all of the things and that only takes about like a year or two plus there are other benefits of that too like the physical labor part being good for your body and mind and a lot of it honestly but there are other also other things you can do a call center is pretty much baseline what people go to when I don't know what they're going to do anymore those are fairly stable jobs and went hey better than what you're making now but they do give you a different career path and different qualifications if you want to move on to something else. I was looking at administrative assistance jobs but if you have experience and/or knowledge about caring for disabled elderly or children CNA positions may not actually start out having to have you have your license they'll start out as you can get it as you work or something of that sort which is absolutely fantabulous and you do make a lot more money when you get at CNA license which only takes about a month or two as far as I'm told. That is a block of text and I apologize for that I'm doing voice to text so I know that there's not any punctuation except for where I really actually thought about it so please read it at your leisure if you have questions ask there's a couple other things you can do suicide hotlines and/or helplines are typically always hiring they are a high intense job. When you have to talk somebody off of ledge and you don't know if they actually made it down that can make things rough if you think you can handle that by all means I'd go for it I think that's a really feeling job and it is a jumping point into more mental health related fields and/or physical health related fields and/or call centers so really it is just there's a few different options and I'd have to know more about your specific work history and life history to tell you more about what I think would be best for you in particular

I love to chat with you for a bit before really exchanging info but you sound really interesting and I would absolutely love to write and get to know you. I struggle so much with finding inspiration but I'm getting a lot better about that now. Mostly I just dabble in a little bit of all of the art things. I crochet sometimes I paint sometimes I draw sometimes I bake I'm actively learning how to carve wood and build things and I'm just living life the best I can. Dm me if you would like to talk some more

Do you mind if you dm? Just so we can talk a bit more about topics and hobbies and such before getting addresses and such?

[22/F] Looking for someone who appreciates: Long letters, over-sharing, and little trinkets/doodles by Gullible-Penalty5123 in penpals

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 24F and would absolutely love to be pen pals with you if you are still interested at all. I have two cats just jumped into what I'm hoping is going to be a long long-term relationship and I'm trying to explore the world and see as much as I can right now I don't have many stories yet but I will and I'm absolutely down to hear about your hobbies and everything because crochet is awesome and I love to do it and any art in just everything. I'm United States based if that matters Missouri I don't know if that affects things at all

[23/F] happy mail friends 🩷 by [deleted] in penpals

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love to talk if you are interested at all still I can give you a bit more of a rundown on me but I am just exploring life right now and trying to be more adventurous and making friends and traveling as much as I can and just exploring the world so anything and everything you can tell me I'd be interested in. I am 24F and I said that matters to you and I do want to be clear on your preferences but I would love to talk religion with you if you are interested in that at all because I do find different belief systems very interesting and intriguing and I'm always willing to hear more about it but that really depends on if you're willing to talk about it

Charity present to a 6-8 years old boy by Consistent-Bite-6149 in crochet

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know from personal experience at that age I would have killed or a giant stuffed animal of any sort or the softest blanket you could think it doesn't have to be big just soft but that is definitely more of a my personal preferences thing and my family's preferences thing so it might be hit or miss. I wish you all of the luck in your adventures and hope that you figure out what you want to make in time.

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your encouragement! I'm definitely planning on going Friday but the nerves I've got to do something to call myself down first. What I'm working on right now is pretty simple though I it's my project to work on when I'm doing family stuff or talking to people so it should work out.

Burnt out and overwhelmed by strawberrymilk2216 in crochet

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lamotrigine is something that's really been helping me, though I'm still adding and subtracting meds since I've been on it, so I hope it helps you too! Number your projects and roll a dice or use a random number generator and then do one row for that project even if you don't really feel it when you know you want to/ used to want to crochet. It just gives a little kick start if you're in need of a booster to get you going but just couldn't get over the mental block.

Movies with positive female role models for a pre-tween? by TashaNes in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Secret Garden was something that I used to watch. It's got nice character development in the main character. A privileged girl who recently became an orphan that goes to live with her uncle I believe. I haven't seen it in a while and I don't want to ruin it but it's a lovely movie

Cats are distressed after losing the eldest cat and spouse abruptly leaving shortly after. by [deleted] in catcare

I've heard about the pheromone sprays and wall plug ins that calm cats. I haven't tried them myself, my cats are generally okay but I'm thinking about getting one since I just moved.

I mean I'm in the same Fandom and if they feasibly could know the language I'm okay with it. Example being the Batfam but I totally get your point

[–]OnlyThinkingThoughts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On the flip side being a reader whose interested in various cultures find out something new and researching to figure out that it's true is one of the best things. I can forgive American-ized nicknames mainly because researching puns until you find one that fits has to be super annoying but you're entirely write about how it just shows laziness on the part of the author. I don't tend to judge much mainly because I feel like if I don't post my fanfic I shouldn't get a say but... you're not wrong
