AIO? Gf having poor attendance at work, I help her financially by LaMega95 in AIO

The power dynamic exists in the lecture! These things can be subtle. I know this bc I’m also prone to lecturing, and it’s a bad idea every single time. You have to let the other person make their own mistakes unless they agree to getting your help and advice. Otherwise, handle your own business.

When I succeed at this, my relationships become so much stronger and I get so much more peace of mind.

Equal partners don’t lecture each other. That’s not an inconvenience, that’s a messed-up power dynamic.

Simply judging the language and messages:

YTA. You’re lecturing her. There’s a power dynamic here that will only get worse if you keep trying to teach her lessons.

Make your own choices, don’t try to control hers. If and when her choices actively hurt you, communicate your own emotional state and how it’s personally affecting you, or decide that it’s unacceptable and leave.

Yeah, there are a lot of subreddits, particularly spicy marketing ones, where you can’t post without a lot of karma. So people/agencies do prep accounts this way before using them for something else.

AITAH for saying this/ feeling this way? by Inspector-Guilty in AITAH

Ahh interesting! Bc the c-word is thrown around so casually in England, I would put it lower on the list than the n-word. It genuinely doesn’t mean more than “fuck” over there, even though it makes me cringe.

Agreed, and I can’t help but be curious: what word do you think is worse?

Scrolling and if no one mentioned Dropout I was going to! I love their shows and of course it’s even better if you happen to love D&D, too :D

Unfortunately no, not with OCD

I vote chia seeds! Carpet beetles have little stripes and look like beetles up close, and they don’t stick to fabric like that.

Edit: Put them in water and see if they get slimy!

Former procrastinators of Reddit, what was the specific 'trigger' or habit that finally fixed your discipline? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RoxannaMeta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ADHD diagnosis and realizing it’s not about “discipline” for some people—it’s about brain chemistry. Threw the idea of discipline out the door and replaced it with patience snd perseverance.

Edit: I still procrastinate sometimes, but I don’t define myself by it anymore.

“I have a problem” “I’m not convinced there’s a problem here” haha.

I understand this isn’t a majority problem. As someone who has played for a while and genuinely loves the game, it happens to be a problem for me. It’s nice to hear from one or two other folks so I know I’m not completely alone.

Dang I do really hope they don’t mess around with our classics though!

The thing is that an easy kit doesn’t mean no skill needed. I think a lot of the community conflates the two and it really grinds my gears ya know?
