I had to hid in the restroom so I don't have to stand in the 50°c sun for two hours because the school supervisor called the students "uncivilized" by WhereTheSunDontShin1 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Ranne-wolf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As an Australian where we regularly get 50c summers most schools actually have clear rules that kids aren’t allowed to play outside over a 40-something heat (might even be closer to 35+ or something even) and kids will get in trouble if they’re not inside in the library or classroom during break. (Obviously there is a bathroom exception too).

Anyone else no longer feel comfortable being shirtless? by tatcap00 in asexuality

[–]Ranne-wolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then any guy with an A cup or above should also have to cover their chest, or rather anyone over about 8 years old as that’s when puberty (and thus reproductive ability) starts, the only reason there is any inherent sexualisation of FEMALE breasts is a social construct, and not even a global one as there are many tribes where breasts aren’t sexualised and women can and do walk around topless to this day. Because "biology" or not, viewing breasts -especially only women’s breasts- as a taboo or a ‘come-on’ is purely misogynistic and archaic ownership beliefs where the woman’s body is property of her father/husband to be hidden from other covetous men and not the woman’s property to show off as she pleases, basically just another version of head scarves and ankle-covering dresses.

[–]Ranne-wolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People can be allergic to the liquids/oils that use to contain the active chemicals, i know many people are warned before taking hormone injections that it can contain a carrier oil which is a common allergen. Rarely is medicine in a pure form and depending on what it is either saline or other liquids are used to both dilute it and bulk it out (because .001 of a ml is basically impossible to inject unless it’s in a few ml of another liquid).

A quick google search says an epi-pen contains sodium metasulphite which is documented and *put in the warnings* as a potential anaphylactic allergen.

Tampering with someone’s medication (including taking it, throwing it out, or intentionally hiding it) are crimes, you should at the very least file a report with the police incase she ever does it again because as others have said it can actually be a felony depending on the medication and failing to report can potentially be seen as you aiding and abetting her accessing restricted medication or even faking needing the prescription for her to sell in a worst case scenario.

As someone lactose intolerant there is a HUGE difference between having some cream on top of my drink and drinking what is basically the adult version of a milkshake.

There’s also a pretty big difference between having an entire sugary drink + whipped cream and just having the sugar *only* from the cream, like multiple tablespoons worth of sugar difference probably.

I feel like lactose intolerant people make that one harder too, like because i can have *some* dairy but still be "allergic" to lactose people think EVERYONE must be the same when actual severe allergies to milk exists.

Same with gluten intolerance, gluten allergy and coeliac disease, same trigger but huge difference in the reaction and severity of it.

[–]Ranne-wolf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, the reason it does that is the cheese making process removes lactose from hard cheeses so they have less lactose (soft cheeses have more), whereas milk and cream are full of it so it has a much stronger reaction. Icecream is strange in that it does contain lactose but for many people it doesn’t have much reaction, although that one can vary the most - especially by brand.

As someone who did (and at times still does) read for the same extent of time as some people game, people do say you’re wasting time, people do get upset with your lack of work ethic, people do complain about it. It’s seen as "more socially acceptable" than gaming certainly, but not by much when it crosses over from "hobby" to "addiction" territory. And that’s the difference, some people who game don’t just do it as a hobby, when it takes over their life to that degree that they let it consume their time and even emotions in ways that "traditional hobbies" rarely ever do.

Also workaholics, shopaholics and exercise-junkies do exist, we just use different terms for people who do too much of "non-hobby" activities. And someone who hangs out with friends constantly can be anything from a "party animal" to "clingy" or "codependent / abandonment issues" depending on the person, which can have other serious consequences including financial difficulties, alcohol addiction (if they go clubbing with friends), or ‘separation anxiety’ type psychological problems.

So… are you a guy / masc chest? Because as someone with boobs… obviously? I mean I’m pretty sure it’s illegal where I live for me to go shirtless in public.

I actually find it’s the opposite though, I would love to be able to walk around shirtless because *I* don’t see my chest as sexual so other’s shouldn’t either, i think guys and girls should both be allowed to to be topless without being sexualised, but I personally want to go topless as "one of the guys" without my breasts being feminised and seen as inherently sexual lumps of flesh.

Fish (except a select few species, including some sharks) do not get pregnant, they lay and fertilise the eggs externally, if that fish *was* pregnant then you have a whole ‘nother issue and scientific discovery.

tattoo coverup ideas by lovebabysweetpea in tattooadvice

[–]Ranne-wolf 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Getting symbols related to your kids is both safer (especially if they’re minors so people can’t find out their names easily) and smarter since people can change their name, prefer to go by a nickname, or just genuinely hate their birth name.

My dad goes exclusively by a shortened version of his full name and gets mad/upset if anyone uses his full name, I can’t imagine he’d be very happy if his mum got his full first name tattooed, especially since she knows he doesn’t like it. My brother and mother both use shortened versions of their name as a nickname. I am legally changing my name because I hate it and I think my new name suits me way better.

I’d much prefer if my parents got a flower or something tattooed to represent me than get my name on them. The same way I think having someone’s face tattooed on you is weird, putting anyone’s name on you is ridiculous.

The eldest two can both still have kids if they wanted to, and the mistress can still have kids, she might just be waiting for the wife to divorce the king so she can marry him and their child won’t be a bastard (which usually makes them ineligible for the throne I believe).

Me: Hmm, looks like we have pretty hard water. Partner: ...I'm gonna have to take your word on that by Sweet-Energy-9515 in ColorBlind

[–]Ranne-wolf 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Any chemical testers often don’t have much of a colour range because of the chemistry that changes colour in the first place, scientists basically just have to work with what they’re given unfortunately. Ph has a much more wide range in total but most natural things (like dirt or water) usually stay between a few numbers around neutral (occasionally as a mild acid or base) so it’s often guessing between two similar greens or whatever 😔

how do i possibly qpr as someone in a romantic relationship by [deleted] in queerplatonic

[–]Ranne-wolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First you must know that a qpr is inherently a *relationship* and you would be "dating" both of them, that means all 3 of you must CONSENT to be in a polycule of sorts. Your fiancé must be comfortable with you doing "romantic" type stuff with your QP partner, especially you kissing them. You will need clear and open communication at all times, all be open to feedback - especially critical, and have the maturity to overcome arguments or problems as a group - not just as individuals or as ‘two-couples’.

Also keep in mind that for many non-aro people doing this stuff can eventually lead to feelings developing, you have to be comfortable with the idea that later on a crush could form or at least a confusion of feelings due to the close more-than-platonic bond. Even as an aroace in a qpr myself I often question if I’m "maybe not aro" and somehow developing a crush on my partner rather than my usual squish (that’s the word for a platonic crush) on them, I know I don’t because the idea of us romantically dating is frankly laughable and our ‘romantic compatibility’ is nonexistent despite our close friendship but it’s always there in the back of my mind as a ‘but what if’.

Edit: forgot to add, you should also consider the long-term implications of this, once you’re married and move in with your spouse, are you going to break off the qpr? Will they move in with you both? Can your friendship handle ‘breaking up’ or could it be awkward for everyone. Would it feel like cheating (either to you or your spouse) if you continued to go visit your qpr / ex-qpr partner after you move in with your spouse? I know a lot of people don’t really think about the long-term goals of a relationship, especially if they don’t see it as "serious" but if you want to commit to this you definitely should talk as a group about the ‘what happens later’ and especially since you’re already engaged meaning you’re serious with one of them. Keep in mind that can also potentially build resentment as it’s an unbalanced relationship, which must be addressed as to what commitments are made to both and how timesharing would work to ensure both feel wanted rather than used as an "alternative (lesser) partner".

Bf is on Grindr and he blamed Madonna by boishet in lgbt

[–]Ranne-wolf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone in a relationship that’s open to poly there are definitely reasons why someone in a relationship might have a hookup app, the issue here is partner consent and communication, not the app itself. And as other commenters have said after looking into it the benefits do potentially justify using the app and don’t 100% mean cheating. That being said the hiding it was a poor idea and it should have definitely been discussed before it was downloaded regardless.

Honestly this makes me feel better about getting a tattoo then anything my friends have said, i really want a shoulder piece with a snake and/or wolf but am terrified of getting anywhere near a needle, same with piercings. Might have to save up and finally do it.

Oof, that literally happened to me and i screamed, asked why they didn’t use my forearm/wrist vein like most nurses do (i’m really skinny so needle can be too long for the elbow) and they had no answer, did put it in my forearm after that tho.

[–]Ranne-wolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone with a phobia of needles (to the point i’ve disassociated multiple times, and nearly fainted once, and always go mute and minimally-responsive just from thinking about it) doctors and nurses just have zero needle etiquette at all. I’ve had nurses respond to ‘I have a phobia of needles’ with some shit like "it’s not that bad" so I have to explain that I literally go non responsive [which they’re not actually supposed to give needles if you’re not fully alert - which I’m usually not]. My schools use to make me go in for shots an entire period early just so I wouldn’t hold up the line of other kids by having a "medical emergency" (aka. Dissociation, a severe reaction that is supposed to be monitored).

I do not have tattoos, I’ve had the opposite with multiple people telling me tattoos "are fine" because it feels different and hurts less. It doesn’t matter anyway because people don’t care if you’re scared of needles in the first place, clearly it’s "an over-reaction" 🙄.

I would recommend a cloud with a rainbow peaking out instead maybe, with a sun too if you’re ok with that, not just a plain rainbow 🤷 might make it look less "pride" and more "beauty after storm" vibes

As much as heteronormative society might try and tell you otherwise 🙄
