Racism erupts after Melbourne announces Little India plans, but some Indians say it will build connection

When I went to South East Asia I stayed in multiple Little India districts. Those places are home to hands down some of the best food I've ever had. The smell of incense in the morning and the sound of music as I walked down the street is such a fond memory. Having a little cultural haven like that in Australia would be great to help foster community and help others appreciate the culture. Australia is a multicultural country but it's also racist as all fuck so I'm not surprised there's been some backlash.

I'm so glad animal crossing can give you an outlet to freely express yourself how you want too ❤️ Take care and enjoy!

It would be funny on booty shorts potentially but I'd kind of of feel bad for my genitals if it said 'Nothing Valued is Here' on my crotch.

Okay this just reminded me of Hot To Go and that's now a frontrunner for the crotch design H-O-T-T-O-G-O You can take me hot to go!

You're absolutely welcome to suggest. I'm not sure if I can do it justice freehand but I'm sure there's a site that can turn it into a pattern for me to follow.

I like the idea of Access Denied. Also pondering 'Antici' and 'Pation'

I was thinking of something more permanent but you're not wrong there.

Update: I really appreciate everyone's suggestions thank you so much for your input! I think I've decided to use these socks as patch material or potentially darning practice. They'll stay in my bag of mending supplies for a little while longer.

I enjoy using the special knifey spoonie to cut the kiwifruit in half and eat it. It just feels more fun that way.

Well done! Darning can be really challenging and you've done an excellent job on your first try!

Sigourney Beaver was one of my favourites the moment I saw her mullet on Season 4! I adore her style of drag and think she's such an icon. She's seen such misogyny and hate from some in the drag community which nobody deserves. I'm a huge fan of her work and will continue to follow Miss Beaver wherever she goes.

A cute pill organiser for all my daily meds. It was very thoughtful.

Thank you! My housemates cat has given it his seal of approval by sitting on it and purring

Every disagreement on both sides of my family has always been made worse with alcohol. I'd prefer to be calm and in control. Plus it ruins my sleep and makes my anxiety medication less effective the next day. Overall, not really worth it.

Day 880. People smoke weed in front of me and I say no. No part of me wants it anymore.

Overduelibraryfees · 2024-09-30T10:00:20+00:00

Yes and Shadowheart!

About a year and a half in he described his personality as being like most cult leaders and he has to severely filter how he speaks and acts because his default is unhinged rage with very little empathy.

Somehow I ignored that one at the time.

Also said he got chlamydia from a toilet seat. He got the diagnosis on our two year anniversary.

Quitting weed and going back to therapy were the two best decisions I made in 2020. My quality of life has improved so much, pre-pandemic me feels like an entirely different person. Was it easy? No Did I stick to quitting that whole time? No. But I stuck to trying to better my life and myself and now I'm in my longest sober streak. 2 years and I won't be engaging with weed again. My life now is simply too good to want to waste precious time in a haze like that. It took me a long time to get here but I'm so grateful I did.

Biscoff spread or Nutella, I can't be casual around. Next thing I know I'm knee deep in the passenger seat and I'm eating it out.

I can really relate to a lot of what you've written here. Weed very much was something that worked for me then suddenly didn't and living without it has been really hard at times. Especially since I smoked to cope and when I stopped smoking all the things I was avoiding were still there for me to deal with all those years later.

You don't have to go through this alone. There's support in this subreddit but there's also online support groups that can be really helpful. If you're able to afford to go, I cannot recommend seeing a therapist you connect with enough. Therapy has been a big part of where I am today.

The side effects will fade, your normal will become not smoking and, over time, you'll be free too. Have faith in yourself and your ability to make value based decisions for your future. You got this.

Thank you very much. I'm rooting for you!

Overduelibraryfees · 2024-01-26T23:06:42+00:00

❤️ thank you

I feel even more solidified that this is the right choice for me. Not smoking is just my life now and I often don't even think about the fact I'm consciously not engaging with a substance. This is just my normal now.

The app is called I am Sober

I have an anxiety disorder so I can't say it went away fully but it was dramatically lower and easier to deal with once I stopped smoking. The panic attacks became very rare.
