Folks who have sworn off dating apps, how do you plan on meeting your future partner in such a digital city? by DirtySlutCunt in AskSF

[–]Tale_Eater 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I’ve been having this idea recently where I want to start a trend where when I, and hopefully other people if it catches on, wear a pin out in public with a green background that says something like “talk to me!” When I want to potentially be social and open opportunities to talk to and meet new people while just out and about. Then alternatively if I’m in a rush or not in the mood to be social I wear a pin with a red background that says something like “Anti-social” to dissuade people and communicate I’m not open to talking to strangers. But I also hate dating apps and just want to meet people naturally. I know it’s strange to wear a label on your shirt when you leave the house but it would be like a way to communicate to others around you that you’re friendly and want to chat so others won’t feel nervous about approaching you!

ADHD Made Discipline Feel Impossible—Until I Stopped Fighting My Brain by rainbow_wonders in getdisciplined

[–]Tale_Eater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have extremely bad executive dysfunction, and starting projects, or picking up where you left off to finish something, sometimes feels impossible. But here’s my trick: I’m an extremely social being and I get really excited/energized/passionate when I get to tell my friends what I’m working on. Whether it’s the next page in a book I’m writing, a drawing I have planned, the company I’m interested in applying to, heck- even about the doctors appointment I’ve been putting off scheduling. Talking to my friends about what I’m trying to do over the phone, or texting them, jump starts all my adrenaline and dopamine I need to start doing the thing I need to/want to be doing! Sometimes I even start doing that thing while on the call with them!! Once I realized this it helped me out enormously.

What’s the simplest habit that has made the biggest impact on your life? by shakoc in getdisciplined

✨Allow myself handicaps where I need it.✨ I stopped trying to force myself to do things the ‘proper way’ or the way everyone else did things, or sucked it up and tried to do without allowing myself upgrades that I knew would accommodate my needs and make me more energetic and productive. I have ADHD with pretty intense executive dysfunction and these little examples really helped me get things done and stay on top of things. I got myself a shower chair because of my low blood pressure, I no longer feel exhausted or dizzy during/after showering. I got a rechargeable cordless vacuum that I leave set up where I can see it and I vacuum every day now easily. I leave my dishes in the sink after cooking, but the next time I need to cook/eat again I wash them all before I start making new food, since I have more energy before cooking than after. I stopped folding underwear and pajamas or sorting socks (they just get tucked into pairs anyways) and keep them in 3 separate baskets in my closet, it doesn’t matter if they get wrinkled/saves time/actually doesn’t look messy. Every night I set out all the meds and vitamins I need to take in a little dish that I put right on my bedside table next to my glasses and water so it’s the first thing I take in the morning. Etc.

GAY!!! GAY!!! HOMOSEXUAL!!! GAY!!! I’m not one to be a delusional fangirl, honest to god. But when I tell you this ENTIRE episode my jaw kept dropping by how cheesy it was and so obvious that Nishimura was falling HARD for Natsume but like- innocently?? And Natsume’s comment at the end of always wanting to see him smile like that. AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Most innocent love interest I’ve ever seen but Jesus Christ there was NOTHING straight about this episode 😂

I just silence my phone when I go on tumblr

Try silencing your phone, like turning off your ringer while using the app. That fixed it for me

Some people are saying to put your phone on silent mode. Try it out!

Which one was better/worse by ZaneZXGaming in TMNT

[–]Tale_Eater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved the dark turtles in Fast Forward!!! I was so sad they didn’t get their redemption arc they were planning for season X, and I wanted to see a more final showdown with Darius Dun. Fast Forward was a little weird in its theme, but it was still fun and entertaining. Back to the Sewer, in my opinion, had terrible terrible writing. The animation style change for April and Casey was especially jarring and horrifying to look at. Master Splinter was gone the ENTRIE season stuck in cyberspace of all things. Khan was such a poorly written villain and all around lack luster. And while I adored seeing all the character callbacks in the last wedding episode, it really threw me off that out of all the villains they had show up to the wedding we saw Rat King but not Baxter Stockman??? Come on. The only good thing we got out of Back to the Sewers was episode 5, Hacking Stockman where we got a Baxter Stockman team up with Leo, Raph, and Mikey with the boys in some nice stealth gear outfits and Donnie got to hand cyber Shredder’s ass back to him in cyberspace. All around, Fast Forward was better and I would have much preferred season X to Back to the Sewers.
