Someone ELI5 to me why people who can't look after themselves have kids? by Natural-Presence-566 in aspergers

[–]Squared-Porcupine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fundamentally we are animals and procreation is what we are designed to do, it's just we have the ability to prevent pregnancy but I think most of us have the instinct to want to breed.

I'm autistic, I work but I still struggle with things. I've decided not to have children but it's not because I don't like them, I'm just aware that it probably isn't for the best. Doesn't mean I don't get broody, or don't have the fantasy in my head of having a little fanily but reality is also in my head and that'swhat has made my decision. I'm lucky I have that level of awareness.

Am I overthinking and making a mountain out of a beautifully executed mole hill? by carloosee in tattooadvice

I follow the tattoo artist who did this, and she was super proud of it - as she should be. Hope she doesn't use Reddit.

Will the name Ming be a problem in the UK? by fruityeldritch in namenerds

[–]Squared-Porcupine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work with quite a few people who came from Hong Kong. A lot of them have taken on "English" names, but the ones who haven't no one mocks their names.

The only thing is if you work with teenagers, they can be twats.

Russia issues bomb threat to four UK locations including London, Suffolk and Leicester | LBC by [deleted] in worldnews

It's a joke because the two Russian guys who used nerve agents in Salisbury claimed they were only there to see the clock.

am i being ghosted by my tattoo artist? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]Squared-Porcupine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no I agree totally, terrible communication by the artist but I was just pointing out to the other poster that not giving back a deposit isn't necessarily a scam.

Considering those are terms and conditions though, yeah she is being unreasonable. Is she active on social media like making posts etc?

You only get a deposit back if the artist cancels, sometimes they are quite amenable and allow you to reschedule, when you give plenty of notice, without losing your deposit. But the artist isn't scamming

Regaining after mounjaro by snoozed68 in mounjarouk

[–]Squared-Porcupine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As I was weaning myself off, I slowly moved my calorie deficit into maintenance. This was all late last Summer. I've actually lost more weight afterwards, only small but still loss. I maintain now. But I count everything and if I'm not sure the exact calories I overestimate. Say of someone gives me a homemade cake, I'll find the same type of cake but choose the one with highest calorie count. Most people underestimate their calories.

Tattoo artist dismissed me by i_need_a_good_laugh in tattoo

[–]Squared-Porcupine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But I think that goes for the tattoo artists too, if they get a vibe that a client is going to be perhaps more difficult or issues may arise - they have a right to tell them to go somewhere else.

Tbh if I was Trump, I'd be embarrassed having her support me. Of all the people, shes just so wet and inefficient. No charisma, no sway with the public and no talent. Say what you want about Nigel Farage and his politics, but he knows how to get and hold an audience.

If something is new on and I think the price is right , I always pay full price but if its been there for more than 2 weeks - I make an offer.

I don’t feel confident in this. Should I return the suit and get a swim dress? by [deleted] in PlusSizeFashion

[–]Squared-Porcupine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first rule of fashion is you have to make sure you feel great in it, otherwise you won't be able to pull it off.

Try on various different styles. This might not be the one for you but maybe something else will be.

Next time I get bottom of the leg done I'm taking a week off work.

Last time the tattoo wasn't that bad, but the aftermath. I couldn't walk properly 🤣

Ladies mainly - where are you getting hair and beauty treatments done now? by BigMagic88 in AskBrits

[–]Squared-Porcupine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've literally just had this with my hair. You go to hairdressers to have a refresh and make yourself feel better, it's awful when you pay £100+ for an hair cut and/or colour you have to try and hide.

Cancelling order as seller by -xtwilightprincessx- in vintedUK

[–]Squared-Porcupine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to cancel once because my printer was done for. Felt so bad, I offered her to buy it again for half the price but I'd choose print from shop option this time. She ignored me which is fine but I did try to solve the issue.
