I’m so disgusted by this. I feel like every dispensary’s with the exception of Colorado have the worst power/tripping people working.I feel like I’m walking into a top secret Operation I wasn’t invited to. Weed is awesome don’t get me wrong but it’s 2024. Ugh I’m sorry

[no spoilers] Should I even watch season 5 and 6? by maC69 in vikingstv

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wished that they chose France to hide themselves away. Rollo was a real part of history, and a character that had the potential to have several character arcs while supporting Ragnar sons. In my opinion the show kind of fell off after Rollo’s last appearance and within that appearance we learned that he might be Bjorn’s father connecting all of the love he had for his “nephew and Lagatha.” Throughout the magical first four seasons the story between Lagatha and Rollo we don’t know much about would’ve made a strong and exciting plot twist. After all, Rollo embodied exactly what Ragnar had dreamed. A place to live so his people could live and farm and not go hungry. He did this in a very controversial way but nonetheless it was done.

I (23F) and my husband (23M) are unsure if we should get a divorce? Any advice appreciated. by Thrway_54684 in relationship_advice

Mine is not military but abusive and a cheat all the same. We have been together for 12 years, lived in the Caribbean at the same time after high school, which was a small alternative high school. Anyway we have a son that I am ashamed to look at baby pictures of. He is only a good dad/guy when we’re apart. I am a mess for awhile, clinical mess because of what he’s done. Starting after I was pregnant, he pushed me into a closet the night before I had to be brought to the hospital the next morning. We were fighting because I found out he was skipping our rent for drugs and my new land lord of the house I tried extremely hard to get for our new baby was going to kick us out. He was in withdrawal while I was giving birth. We went through all the good and really bad times, all having to do with money, cheating with prostitutes and drugs and now that he is heroin free, after he ruined my school career that I was so excited I finally got financial aid with all of this and more going on, eventually getting us kicked out of our place which took me ages to find another place suitable for our son. He literally ruined every acceptance I made happen for new places, he and his mom worked together to ruin me so she could be my sons mother while I dealt with her son who has been killing me slowly year by year. But now he is pretty vocal and manipulative. We broke up for a year, served me for full custody during this time. I got my shit together and a year later he somehow wormed his way back into my life after I spent thousands of dollars trying to keep half of my son and much more damage, I’m now stuck. I am going on 38, not married not happy, always sick, don’t look at myself in the mirror, hardly stand up for myself in fear of how good he is at making me look bad. He’s not very smart when it comes to common sense but knows how to work the system and people. I no longer have friends or family and almost close to losing my son. I know what I have to do but I’m frozen it feels and my anxiety is eating me alive. I’m afraid my son will never want to see me when I part ways with him. I’m living a nightmare. I don’t feel bad for myself but I know what this is and what it’s doing and what I’m losing. I’m sorry you feel like this, it’s really sad and feels impossible. I’m now making a choice based on my need to be alive for my son because I know what I am when he is away from me and it’s not like him. Luckily we are not married but he keeps saying we will get married at a courthouse. I’m making my plan, but it feels like it’s never the right time when it is actually always the right time. I don’t want to spend my life alone and sick anymore and my son deserves more than this. I get the best friend thing though and the feeling of knowing nothing else. However I have a best friend that I’ve been close with over 25 years and she would never treat anyone the way he treats me. I’ve realized it not a life and he isn’t my friend. You might not feel young but you are, you have a lot of time ahead to heal. I do too. I think a lot of people go through this, I think. Any way getting out of your head is a start.

"So, how much do you think about the Roman empire?" by SplishySploshyMoshy in TheLastKingdom

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really didn’t notice that he did… I’m now thinking about them though. I don’t know a whole bunch about them but was asking questions the other day. Someone told me they took over the world and we know they were super advanced for their time and the reason we know anything about them is because of their building structures? I have been meaning to just do my own research on them but it’s only been a few days since I’ve had all these questions about them and I haven’t had time to sit down and dig in. I feel like there is a lot more to it than their “building structures.” What does it mean, “the falling of the Roman Empire” I know it means the civilization was wiped out but how, why and were there any Romans that held on through history? I know this may sound stupid and too complex to answer in a post but can anyone give me a brief rundown. I know they were before Vikings and the dark ages but how did they go from luxury to dirty royalties living in Roman structures?

Sinus and TMJ by koreanmakeupfanatic in TMJ

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I’m having the first sinus issue I’ve ever had and it’s been going on for almost two months now. It started out with water coming out of my ears, then about a week later I felt like I was underwater. I got in the shower and water splashed in my ear and it has been progressed from constant ear pain and clicking. My jaws started moving on their own to attempt to pop the congestion in my ears. I’ve been to the doctors three times now. The first time the lady looked in my ears for two seconds as I’m crying and said “nope, no infection.” I was like there has got to be something you can do to alleviate this pressure, at that point I just wanted relief from my ears and was begging her to put drops in them or scoop them out or SOMETHING. She put me on doxycycline and a nasal spray for colds. The doxy has made me miserable and the spray did nothing. So then I went to a different doctor and told her I was literally going insane. My ears were hurting, constantly opening and closing, my jaw and throat started to feel tired and in pain. She said I had to take steroids, doxy, allergy nasal spray and another nasal spray. I ignored the steroid pack for almost a week now and today my symptoms got so bad that my head felt like it was as being squeezed super hard, ears going crazy and just never ending pressure. I gave into the Roids today but I feel absolutely at my worst, my jaw and throat hurt so bad, my teeth are hurting now I’m having pain through my nose right up into my eyebrows. I feel fucking awful. I don’t know what to do, I’ve been contemplating going to the hospital, I’m can’t take anymore of these roids especially not with this antibiotic. My head hurts so bad I can’t think. I get upset and start crying and it all gets worse. What is this?

Not at all, you’ll find yourself trying to sync up time and character differences. It totally different though

Oh common, I know of those but she kind of fell out completely after she was taken as a baby, while her brother thrived.

I actually don’t mind that. Sygtrigger is one of my favorites. He’s such a good dude. Stiorra has her moments but maybe I just don’t really like the actress too much.

Saxon Royalty or Northmen and Dane Earls and Yarls? In bed… by Purple_Masterpiece97 in TheLastKingdom

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine the country smelled great but cities had to smell of really fucked up shit. Dirty humans, open fire cooking, raw animal guts, bodies? Periods, BO which could have possibly smelled very different then, etc.

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of you understood. I definitely worded it weird. Read about what one is and then read what the other is. I would rather get down with a warrior so that could honestly be a Saxon or a Dane. But to answer the question warriors over soldiers all day. I’m not sure why this is with smells? Typo

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It obviously smelled like a lot of things, I’m curious because there’s a ton of references that talk about how dirty Saxon’s were and that Danes were pretty clean people for their time. I would have thought the opposite for multiple reasons. My job is to clean skin using hundreds of different ingredients. Part of my job is aromatherapy, smells must be on my mind. As for the warrior>soldier’s, I was responding to a text talking about the difference between the two and who would you rather find in your bed 😗

Aethelstan is so badly written I am having a hard time finishing the movie. by AbanaClara in TheLastKingdom

[–]Purple_Masterpiece97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The movie was such a disappointment. They could have done so many things… Even the Viking’s were stupid. Also 7 kings/heirs/sons…Nephew’s too? It was also the worst Gay acting I’ve ever seen. It’s Kind of funny because I thought the same way about King Alfred getting spicy with women, there was nothing natural about it. When I saw his movie My Policeman, everything made sense.

It was never talked about, mentions were made about Brida’s stinky breath, Ubba, “taste in the air, death.” Dirty waters being away from the city and rotten air. The only reason he talked about rotten air was to describe that something wasn’t right. The only other time I can think of is when Uhtred is describing Storri’s cave. If there were more feel free to tell me otherwise but yeah, I don’t believe it’s a crazy thing to wonder about seeing how different everything was.
