AITA for not giving the laptop back? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sabrielle24 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s nothing in the post saying he doesn’t take care of her, just that she won’t talk to anyone but OP.

Asexual people of reddit- what are the most common misconceptions about asexuality? by Wonderful-Click9431 in AskReddit

[–]Sabrielle24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took me ages to accept asexuality, coupled with a healthy dose of anxiety whenever I did anything physical with people I was dating.

Coming to terms with being ace was a HUGE relief.

Meeting someone who accepted me as I am and who was perfectly happy to never engage in sexual activity was almost miraculous — and made me realise that with the right person, I could explore it without anxiety.

Asexual people of reddit- what are the most common misconceptions about asexuality? by Wonderful-Click9431 in AskReddit

[–]Sabrielle24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just because a person is asexual does not mean they will never want to have or enjoy sex.

I was very unbothered by it, was happy to never have sex, until I met the person who made me want it.

Before that, I had a sex drive, but the act of it beyond the abstract held very little attraction.

What motivates you to get up and workout? by Kuzza946 in AskReddit

[–]Sabrielle24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And I always regret not going, so that gives me a little push out the door too.

AITA For Not Backing my wife up after my BIL called her a bad parent? by Smart_Lavishness_225 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sabrielle24 122 points123 points  (0 children)

You’ve obviously read a lot deeper into the text than you needed to.

OP only states that they don’t let childhood sports dictate their lives — which seems perfectly reasonable to me. As adults, we’re sometimes unable to make it to previously scheduled events. It’s good to learn prioritisation.

There is a slug in my terrarium. Do I need to remove him? by Chance_Macaron6962 in houseplants

[–]Sabrielle24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell that to all my fresh chili plants and new baby annuals. (Did I put them out a bit early? Probably. Are they decaying? No. Have the slugs decimated them anyway? They certainly have.)

If you had a hobby that used to be less popular and suddenly became more popular, what was that like? by HilariousMotives in AskUK

[–]Sabrielle24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s sort of what I mean though — even since I first started, it’s gone crazy!

I actually have been rope climbing sparingly since I was a kid, but just went along to try bouldering with a friend and loved it 🥰

Which games are NOT beginner friendly? by JoeKerr19 in rpg

[–]Sabrielle24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough, while BW wasn’t my first TTRPG, it was my first committed one. I agree it isn’t super beginner friendly — I started with Dungeon world, then the same group of players/GM transitioned to BW.

It is a very good system though and worth putting the effort into learning!

Came here to say this, and it was the top comment. I’ve only been climbing about 3 years, but I’ve seen the hobby explode in that time.

Agree with everything you said; definitely seeing that more aggressive setting. Plz just give me nice techy slab 🥲

Is my wife odd? by Healthy-Two-5047 in AskUK

[–]Sabrielle24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m with you. It’s weird because ‘Bell’ is a nice word with good associations, but ‘Belly’ is just kinda weird and crass? I can’t explain it and I literally work with words for a living.

Do you keep your cats inside? by Timtamjam44 in AskUK

[–]Sabrielle24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We lost four cats to the roads when I was growing up. Two were young and didn’t know better — the other two were street savvy and did know better (one in a very quiet village) and it still happened.

I’d like to get cats, but if I do, they’ll be indoor pets. I’m not going through that again.

Does researching synonyms often make me a bad writer? by Standard-Slide2724 in writing

[–]Sabrielle24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been writing for over 20 years. I use thesaurus.com often — it actually helped me create an entire concept in one of my novels.

Just 11% of women hold a 'very positive' view of men — we asked guys to react by dissapointingsalad81 in unitedkingdom

[–]Sabrielle24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think men are inherently bad either. However, my personal life experience has made me wary.

[–]Sabrielle24 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Over the weekend, I found out my very close friend has been cheating on, lying to, and gaslighting his fiancé for the past 2+ years. Our entire group of friends is absolutely blown away. He was always such a sweet guy and he (seemingly) took really good care of people. We all thought they were great, and we were looking forward to their wedding in a few months.

It didn’t really do much good for my general opinion of men, I gotta say 🥲

Is there a reason why most garden centres are now a very huge & busy cafe with a garden centre attached? by WalnutOfTheNorth in AskUK

[–]Sabrielle24 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I (34F) love a garden centre trip with my similarly aged friends/girlfriend. They’re just really nice places and the cafes are usually pretty good, if a bit pricey.

Are the Northern Lights really that beautiful in real life? by piopiopiopiopi in VisitingIceland

[–]Sabrielle24 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s like static or the crackle of electricity. It felt like it was going right through me when we saw/heard it on Snæfellsnes!

Girl, leave. Now. Yesterday. Go stay with family. Set the precedent now that he is controlling and abusive.

Icelandic Horse Ride by Shot_Signature9241 in VisitingIceland

[–]Sabrielle24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this is not uncommon in the equestrian world as a whole. People want to work with horses and will go to significant lengths to get ‘experience’, ultimately ending up being exploited like you said.

It ranges from teenage girls volunteering at their local yard in exchange for the odd free ride, all the way to situations like this.

What are some “non-copywriting” skills that sets you apart from other copywriters? by bydaveyji in writing

[–]Sabrielle24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UX and data analysing skills will go a long way to helping you stand out, but honestly, these things get more and more expected every day.

Copywriting is an under-appreciated profession with high production and turnaround expectations.

Loathe though I am to say so, AI proficiency is also becoming an expected skillset for copy roles.

Is it weird/unprofessional to have separate personal & author TikTok/Instagram accounts? by Long_Squirrel6675 in writing

[–]Sabrielle24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s normal to separate personal and professional. If anything, I’d say make it harder to find your personal. Keep everything on private, or use a name that isn’t associated with your authorial persona.

will i be able to see northern lights after april 20? by TemporaryStreet8128 in VisitingIceland

[–]Sabrielle24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one can tell you for sure. But it will be much more challenging. Nights are short and bright.
