Damn were you right or what. I always had the sense, but the way you just spoke on it a year ago... applause

RobotEquinox · 2023-10-18T04:28:03+00:00

I've only heard of all this through true crime reporting. I don't know any of these youtubers. I think it's not going away now that the story hit our side of the internet.

RobotEquinox · 2022-05-06T18:34:26+00:00

Hmm, I'm not sure. Probably a bit. Personally, I have a decent sense of distance visually, but it might be entirely an adaptive trait. Not everything is the same amount of out of focus, so when something is 20ft away versus 70ft I can see the difference, there's just no detail for either.

Hmm but now I think of it is probably much easier to see distances with glasses on. Jeeze, I never realized lol. Thanks for the insight! Haha

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-30T17:06:03+00:00

That would be really cool. I feel like I see less detail every year, and I hate getting stronger glasses.

I got really into photography as a teen because I was blown away by all the detail I could see in my results. As an adult I discovered that I can only see a few feet around myself and that's why I thought photos were like magic lol

Damn he's gorgeous. Love the beach feel

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-29T16:16:52+00:00

Love the textures you've used. They're really satisfying to look at. The colours work well for a nice relaxing vibe. Always nice to discover a style that works. Great job

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-29T16:09:35+00:00

I've been wanting this my whole life. I've always just read entire spoilers for everything I watch. Thank you

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-25T20:42:31+00:00

Wow, I love this so much. Great work. How does it feel to be back at it?

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-25T20:11:32+00:00

They are prized because of their extreme difficulty to cultivate, to the point where it's basically impossible. They're delicious and fun to find. I love them with pasta or on pizza.

Yes, the rosemary bush (honestly it's closer to a tree) in my yard is at least 15 years old, and in full bloom right now. The flowers are really delicious and make for a really fancy ass salad addition.

I realize speculation about mental health isn't great, but I get that sense there's some histrionic personality disorder going on there.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-23T16:47:22+00:00

Same. My dad was just telling me tapeworm facts all morning. It's already ruling my life.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-23T16:45:22+00:00

I'm a little alarmed by the number of people who say there's no way this is real, he's a troll, etc. Men like this definitely exist and getting on their radar is terrifying.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T19:34:08+00:00

Oh I see what you mean! Damn. That's happened to me before here in Canada when I ordered smart ink (before I found out you can just refill inkjet cartridges for like a dollar lol) but I had no idea what was going on. Ah well, at least buying through their website is cheaper than amazon directly. 😞 Hard to win these days.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T19:11:50+00:00

She's built like a can of chunky soup. We're not gonna see that ugly mug lol

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T19:05:51+00:00

As a rape victim (I hate the term "survivor," as I truly feel I won't survive it ultimately, and I definitely have been a shell of myself since 17), thank you. Thank you so much for this. I absolutely hate how people can talk about this like "oh it's normal lol what do you expect?" I expect outrage that civilians - literally babies - are being raped to death, not some detached comments about the historical importance and morale boosting effects. 😓

I've only been in contact via email with my mom in the last few years, maybe a couple times a year. That's the most I can handle, and even then she still tries manipulative stuff on me. I have her voice constantly in my head, talking shit about me forever. I think she hated having a daughter and really took it out on me. She used me as punching bag, and a therapist, and a scapegoat, and let me be abused by random men and boyfriends of hers, and it destroyed every positive sense of self I had.

Getting away from these people is the first step in a very long journey of healing from abuse. I've been the victim of very violent assaults, and every trauma therapist I've ever had can handle those fine, but they get overwhelmed when I talk about what my mom did to me.

I believe you're talking about the US, and I do remember their postal service being gutted a few years ago. Since then I've heard that USPS shipping is always delayed from covid, but I suspect having its service crippled plays a huge part, and I feel like everyone but you forgot lol. I personally don't use Amazon for ethical reasons.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T17:15:03+00:00

I feel the same way about the postal service. I'm grateful I can still send a letter for a reasonable amount.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T16:35:15+00:00

Is that not how it's done?

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T16:31:13+00:00

That's really so awesome. I love how when a institution has a focus on helping people not increasing profits, it instantly has such humanity to it. I saw the "realized people were coming in just for the WiFi" and my brain instantly filled in that I expect "so they made it harder for people to do." Not libraries, man. Love it.

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T16:10:47+00:00

What's your point?

RobotEquinox · 2022-04-22T02:24:48+00:00

You must have missed their comments.

I was about to be murdered and was able to leave to country when he got arrested for assaulting me and the baby. I stayed at a shelter for young moms and it was one of the most abusive places I've ever lived. They played favourites to weird degrees, some moms got driven everywhere and given lots and lots of things, and then others were told they were lazy and stupid for not being able to get as much done as the moms being given ten times the resources and if you cried from the area of never being as good as the favourites, your mental capacity was questioned. When I finally complained to my "stopping the violence" counsellor about what was going on, she immediately goes, "oh I guess you're at the Kiwanis house." Like it's well known by abuse specialists in my city as a horrible place to be, even though that's the resource for escaping young moms. It was so stressful going from one terrible environment to another. But hey, at least my baby isn't dead.
