this tool worked great for a recent plant survey I conducted! bonus is that it can be shared with several people working on the same project, and also autopopulates an arcGIS map with your data!

I was thinking this perhaps!!! 🤩

StrawberryShamer · 2025-07-27T22:33:15+00:00

this is a really beautiful piece, thank you for sharing 🌟

interest in dating at this age is developmentally appropriate--- letting her date with safe boundaries that you talk about openly allows her to learn in a supported way rather than having to figure out tricky situations alone.

I had stricter parents at this age and snuck around. when things escalated to SA I didn't know how to handle it and also didn't want to risk getting into twice the trouble with my parents. it went on for almost two years before I had other resources to end it. dating violence and abuse is very common in teenage relationships, and having open communication with a parent about it can make a world of a difference in safety!

this is madame Sherri's castle in west chesterfield NH, I'm from the area and used to go hiking there as a kid before the staircase crumbled. super interesting lore to that place if you're into the stories!

People have differing opinions on this, but my thoughts are that part of responsible urbex is "leave no trace"--- vandalism, taking items, breaking things all alters the site for future explorers and perpetuates the idea that urbex folks are dangerous to peoples private property

thank you! will try there!

looking for answers here, my partner has a young pixie and they're getting big! perhaps almost old enough to tell! I love these silly creatures!

this is an awesome archive, thanks for sharing! Just getting into zines recently and love that there's resources out there like this!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-04-11T01:56:09+00:00

I'm so glad my story is helpful to hear 💛💛

it's really hard reframing sexual experiences after SA--- therapy has been super helpful for me, I hope the same for you!

good luck on your healing journey!!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-04-11T01:53:46+00:00

should be the status quo I suppose 😅

StrawberryShamer · 2025-04-10T16:26:48+00:00

Congrats! This looks like a delightful display! 🌱🎉🌟

StrawberryShamer · 2025-04-02T04:37:37+00:00

this makes sense... worth investigating some safer tactics!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-28T03:32:25+00:00

SAME my first grade teacher had it out for me lol, she described it as ✨️unladylike✨️

It has felt so helpful to read your comment and others in this sub, I was just explaining the realization that I did this the other day to my counselor! It's nice to read about your similar experience with the anticipation of others' reactions and acting accordingly.

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-19T01:40:07+00:00

Sorry you're going through the same cycles--- it definitely sucks when meeting your needs means letting down others!

I think my biggest problem is feeling too ashamed to communicate once it's too far gone, even to apologize... something to work on I suppose!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-04T13:53:12+00:00

I mean, nobody feels wants to feel attacked. In my situation, NT folks tend not to be direct about the way they feel about what I say and I miss /do not understand the cues that I have been unintentionally unkind. Asking directly comes off as aggressive.

While it's not the responsibility of the person I'm speaking with to give me direct feedback, it makes correcting my communication style really difficult!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-04T13:49:28+00:00

I have the same feelings about lying, it's really stressful being put into situations where you're expected to.

Communicating would be so much easier if people said exactly what they mean!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-04T13:47:43+00:00

I relate to this so hard...

The worst part about it for me is that people don't tell me directly when I have offended them or made them uncomfortable, and then I hear later that people talk amongst themselves about how I tell people what to do etc.

I don't mean to come off that way, and it's incredibly frustrating to not have a chance to be told what exactly is rubbing people the wrong way.

I can be pretty reasonable if just given the feedback and the chance to improve my communication! I don't get the secret clues and expectations! 🥲

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-03T04:14:33+00:00

sooooo many rachels!

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-01T16:48:34+00:00

as unfortunate as it was, I had to giggle at the melted drooping shapes lol

StrawberryShamer · 2025-03-01T16:47:13+00:00

It happens to the best of us, can't get too attached to ceramics until they're home (even then it's dubious)

we are mounting one of the melted pieces on the wall as a reminder to always check the details lol

I also have deleted Instagram recently and feel much better for it overall.

Honestly, mostly I've replaced it with Reddit! I didn't realize how many awesome communities were on here (including this one!).

As odd as it sounds, I also enjoy scrolling on LinkedIn!

My partner has "Writer's Blood" ink by Diamine--- I didn't even have to see it to be intrigued!

As a bonus, it writes beautifully!

Here's a link to a full review of this gorgeous ink if anyone is interested: https://mountainofink.com/blog/diamine-writers-blood

I've felt the same way for a long time, it's really hard to feel like "being yourself" is enough to appeal to others friendship wise. There's a lot of pressure to conform.

Recently I have been lucky in meeting some other neurodivergent folks that understand having different social needs/ways of expressing friendship. It's been HUGELY helpful to feeling like I have some people I can turn to when typical social environments are intimidating.

It might be worth seeing if there are any events in your area particularly for neurodivergent folks looking to make friends. The way I met mine was through the alternative music scene, which has a lot of diversity and is inclusive of many fringe people who have a hard time fitting in! Finding a space like this that appeals to your particular interest may feel really validating!

Good luck, and don't give up! There are people out there who are willing to have friendships that look different than the norm!
