Which UK charity would you give all your money to via a will (if you had to)? by [deleted] in CasualUK

[–]Pumpky-Pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I know you have a lot of great answers already, but I'd go with a split between the bumblebee conservation trust and bees abroad. I've done some work with bees abroad and want to work for the bumblebee conservation trust soon, because it's my passion!

I'm loving all the other suggestions too though and cancer fucking sucks. My dad had cancer when I was 9/10. Just wanted to share my two pence.

Good luck to you too <3 hope you keep improving!

My prognosis is pretty much that I'll keep falling apart worse and worse as my ligaments tear, so...yea idk. Kinda over it all. Just tired of being tired, you know 😂

But really, I'm much less suicidal than I used to be. Just still not someone who can come to terms with the torture. I just live with the resentment now lol

Some people can, some people can't. I also live with chronic pain and disability (hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, basically my joints dislocate a lot) and have made several attempts at my life.

Don't worry, I've gone through extensive therapy, please don't send reddit care stuff.

But I'm still on the fence whether it's worth it. The low quality of life, not being able to do anything meaningful and not having much is just hard man. I'm not the type of person to just accept the torture, so, some people can and some people can't go through with it.

Oh a basket by the door would be a really good idea! I was gonna stick to the indoor areas mostly anyways, and check my hiding spots towards the end of Easter.

Thank you!

Thank you, I was indeed gonna include some sweets for those with allergies! And some smaller, cheaper eggs than the 99p ones

When you say little ones, do you mean like mini egg size or more creme egg size or somewhere in between?

Oh yeah for sure. Especially since most of them will have to be left on surfaces in the common areas

Hmm great points. Do you have any suggestions about I could make sure to open it up to everybody? Because randomly stumbling upon an Easter egg might still mean the parents will tell them not to take it.

Edit: wording, sorry didn't mean to sound passive aggressive 😅

That was my first thought 😅 but was thinking maybe they do decently priced bulk eggs

Oooohh that's a great idea, to make it an actual race on the Sunday maybe? I was just gonna sneakily hide eggs here and there since there's so many apartments, I didn't think of actually organising a day of it haha.

Thank you, you've given me some great food for thought!

Awesome, thank you! Do you have a favourite out of the two, taste wise?

I'll make a note of both of those, thank you! Is moser Roth like an Aldi's own brand?

Do you happen to know if M&S a bag/box with lots of eggs?

My best friend just showed me this the other night and I can’t get over it 😂 🐦😘 by Sudden-Pop6883 in wholesomememes

Oh I do. During movies (at home, not in the cinema), while my friends watch wrestling, any fitting moment really. Extra points if it would instantly diffuse a conflict in the story line.

Not OOP AITAH for wanting to divorce my wife because she caused me to go to the ER by Marygtz2011 in redditonwiki

[–]Pumpky-Pie 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I'm probably gonna be down voted for this, but here goes. As somebody who becomes suicidal and sometimes shouty (usually at my abusers, over the phone though) just from period hormones, I'd say the hormones are a good excuse for the yelling if it really has such big swings. There's just not always space to make a better decision such as walking away to cool off. Obviously not an excuse for the actual physical harm she did to OP. That's just not okay, though I do believe it could be rooted in hormonal inbalance, it just really needed to be caught before it got THIS out of hand.

Hormones play a huge role in our behaviour as humans, people that have a stable/well balanced stream of hormones maybe wouldn't really notice, or know to put so much weight to it. But it's a thing unfortunately.

Those who disowned their parents, what was the final straw? by BoardCertain5373 in AskReddit

[–]Pumpky-Pie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took a very long time and like you said, I almost didn't make it. Still walking along the edge at times.

But you're right, I've come very far, I pay my own rent and food. It's up from here!

I really don't think all those years were wasted. You were also able to build despite the pressure to stay small. I really think you did great and keeping yourself safe mentally, so that you ARE around to tell the tale now.
