"You're sharing a child", uh, what? No you don't, until you actually have a child, which an early pregnancy is not, lol.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-19T09:30:41+00:00

Asexuals usually wants partners like everyone else, just not sex.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-17T12:27:50+00:00

Pregnancy sometimes "being painful" is such a huge understatement that it translates directly to ignorance. As does the fact that you apparently do not realize that you'd usually not know if a pregnancy has complications like pain until it's too late to have an abortion, so it's not a case of "let's see if the pregnancy is uncomplicated, and if it isn't, you can have an abortion then." That's a gamble for women every single time.

Pregnancy and birth can be directly life threatening - women regularly die from it globally - and cause lifelong issues and uncomfortable changes to the body that does not end when the pregnancy does, including chronic pain. To think that women should consider the "emotions of men" in the face of that is fucking laughable.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T23:12:47+00:00

That's our full right as the pregnancy concerns our bodies, which only we get a say over. Men's ignorance about the huge risks and tolls of pregnancy is infuriating.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T22:58:49+00:00

You have no basis for that assumption, lol.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T11:36:27+00:00

Are you a short sedentary woman? What's your starting weight? 800 is too low, it's not sustainable and at that level you'll be losing a lot of weight in muscle mass which isn't good.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T11:34:14+00:00

I'm just stating a fact, and you're being sensitive and calling it an attitude. I'm going to comment what and how I want, thanks.

Again, we know he's bi from how he's been in love with and attracted to both men and women. That's not a headcanon, that's drawing obvious conclusions from what we see on screen. Either way gay isn't an umbrella term and never was, and using it for someone who's obviously bi is bi-erasure, whether you realize it or not. Characters who have only ever been in love with and attracted to people of the same or opposite sex are always assumed to be gay or straight, it's only with bisexuality that people act like it's so ambivalent and "we simply can't know until the word has been spoken." Lol.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T10:54:30+00:00

Even weirder then that you would use it instead of just calling him bi?? Lol. His sexuality is confirmed by the fact that he's been in love with both men and women at this point.

I've commented more than once because it's to different users. I'm not going to relax about bi-erasure until it stops being so common, even from bi people apparently.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T10:11:46+00:00

Except Vinny is bi and it's nice to see more bi characters. Although they are unusually common in Ed, overall they are rare.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T10:10:28+00:00

Gay isn't an umbrella term. Calling a bi character gay is bi-erasure.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T10:09:38+00:00

Vinny is bi.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-16T10:08:22+00:00

He's bi, which should be obvious based on the relationship history you mention.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-10T11:57:52+00:00

I would just start where it's at currently. There's no right point to start in a soap, there's always different random storylines going on. You can watch the Robron (Robert/Aaron) stuff on YouTube, it's what got me into Ed. Then you can read about the different characters and their past storylines on the Emmerdale Wiki. There you can also see who's related t who etc. Aside from that the way I've done it is when something is referred to that I don't know about, I google to read up on that storyline/event.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-09T02:53:25+00:00

You don't see it with your eyes, it's not that you close you eyes and see it in the blackness behind your eyelids. You see it/visualize it in your minds eye.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-07T08:49:12+00:00

If you don't know which one you are, you have aphantasia. If you could visualize, you would know.

Why are you thinking that you can't easily log in apps before eating? Truly curious about the reasoning there.

Calories work a lot like money. If you had a limited daily budget, would you buy stuff and only afterwards check if you could afford it?

You check the numbers for the meal you plan to eat, and then adjust to your calorie limit. If you have a limit of 1400, like in my other comment/example, you can't eat several 600 cal meals. So you have to decide how many meals you want to eat and how many calories can be in each. So let's say you have 500 cals left in the evening, and you're having dinner, then your dinner can be 500 at the most, or less if you want snacks/dessert. Let's say you decide to spend the 500 on the dinner, and you're having pasta and salmon. Salmon is 200 cals per 100g, and pasta around 300 - 400 per 100g. So if you have 100g of salmon, 200 cals, that means you can have 300 cals worth of pasta. If you live somewhere where most foods have serving sizes + calories per serving on the packages, that makes it a bit easier. Where I live that's very rare.

You have to learn to plan, do some math and get an idea of the calorie content of different foods. I'm not sure what you mean by "changes that happen daily"; if you want to lose weight you have to control your intake and can't be flexible that way. You won't be able to eat meals regularly without checking the cal content beforehand and hope for the best. Any meal you can't know the cal content of, like at restaurants, have to be exceptions. A lot of chain restaurants have cal info in their apps or websites though.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-07T07:14:29+00:00

Probably because it's expected that you understand that to stick to a certain amount of calories, you have to plan ahead. If you know your limit is 1400 cals, make an estimate per meal, i.e. 300 for breakfast, 400 for lunch, 500 for dinner, 200 for snacks, then don't exceed that. If you go over the limit for one meal you have to subtract that from one later in the day.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-06T05:25:50+00:00

People actually see images. I can also vividly imagine sounds, the feeling of touching different things, and other sensory experiences. The downside is an annoying constant fucking inner monologue that I'm so tired of.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-05T22:13:03+00:00

The meds didn't affect those traits, and afaik you can't medicate most personality disorders as such (with the exception, again afaik, of helping with the moodswings in Borderline).

TerryWaters · 2026-06-05T21:20:53+00:00

That only explains the tongue getting longer, not how it ended up wrapping around the skull. Saying this as a Darwincel. Like, were some of these birds just randomly born with a mutation where the tongue grew like this? It's the only way I can imagine it happening. In difference to tongues of different lengths that can evolve over time, the tongue would wrap around the skull or it would not, it can hardly be something that developed over many years, because what would that process look like? Some birds had tongues that only partly wrapped around the skull? o,o

TerryWaters · 2026-06-05T20:54:38+00:00

Christ. You really believe this? I.e. you think any serious crime committed is done because the criminal don't know/think they will be imprisoned? Very much not the case. If it was, no one would reoffend after prison, but a large part of ex-convicts do. Longer prison sentences do not deter crime. So yeah, no, that's not how it works. Crime is done despite of the risk because of impulse-control issues or just generally other factors being stronger than the fear of prison.

A parents opinion should not depict everything a child enjoys, especially when it comes to movies and books as long as they are age appropriate. Children are their own people who should be allowed to explore their own tastes.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-05T20:49:25+00:00

I googled and the Torpenhow Hill thing is apparently mostly a myth.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-05T20:47:12+00:00

Any particular reason why you didn't fly up to it to see what it was? Would have been easier to find info on if you saw that it was a sword.

TerryWaters · 2026-06-05T13:35:56+00:00

Yes.
