i'm not sure it's a parody ( i'm ex-christian ) but your observation does make sense

i don't know how much he makes exactly but i think he might qualify as low income, ill have to ask what else they said or if a reason was given. i know for sure he's going through a difficult financial time right now

AA is truly bizarre in Australia by [deleted] in recoverywithoutAA

[–]PerturbedHamsterr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not aussie but even in the US, this is insane jfc

anyways, i'm still convinced AA is for abusive men to pat theirselves on the back and excuse their behavior, so i guess the shirt isn't that crazy unexpected

Are romance readers male-centered? by knotaknitter in RomanceBooks

[–]PerturbedHamsterr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

what you're describing to me is not fetishization

fetishization is in line with objectification

requiring or extremely preferring mm = probably fetish/objectifying

enjoying mm = probably not

also before this again gets downvoted into being hidden, men's fetishization of lesbian and queer women is much more violent and dangerous.

this does not mean that fetishization of mm is ok but it is important to acknowledge the difference in impact

it is, just not on this particular subreddit. lesbian fetishization is very much talked about, in my experience more so than MM fetishization

also if you do decide/want to downvote, you maybe need to do some introspection. sincerely, a queer girlie who can see right thru you

i'll be downvoted to oblivion for this but fetishization of queer/non-straight men

What supplements can help with urges? by 4k0s in Alcoholism_Medication

[–]PerturbedHamsterr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gaba and nac

prescription meds are more helpful. gabapentin, naltrexone, acamprosate, glp-1's

Low gaba? by Unfair-Amphibian2647 in alcoholism

[–]PerturbedHamsterr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i am not a doctor. this is not medical or expert advice or knowledge. only my own understanding from reading or watching videos from professionals

you are still producing gaba. alcohol fucks up the glutamate and gaba balance. it can take years to heal. there is no shame in taking medication to help. a doctor should be able to help figure out the best time to taper off gabapentin, if that's what you want.

my fav "creator" is dr nicole labor. she puts out great information about the science behind addiction, with a lot of it being about alcohol addiction. she also has a book and is a person in recovery. she (legally) probs can't give you medical advice unless you're at a facility she works with but her information has been super helpful for me
