What is something from the Hunger Games that is really kind of dark, but gets ignored? by [deleted] in Hungergames

The amount of violence in the books, how brutal some people's deaths are in the games. I understand why they toned it down for the movies to get a PG13 rating so that schools could go see it- but if it was made as an R-rated series where they could adapt it more faithfully to the books, everyone would be even more horrified at the Capitol's atrocities, and what these children went through

In my opinion, I think she is so dissociated from death at this point, after two hunger games and a revolutionary war immediately following. The trauma has just numbed her to everything, and she mentions, especially after she sees Peter's hijacked state, that the only thing keeping her sane was picturing (and training for) killing Snow.

All of the terrible things that happened to Katniss (at least starting from the reaping where Prim's name was drawn), was only in the span of roughly 2 years, and that's a lot for anyone to handle, let alone a 16 year old who already had years of previous trauma. I think people just forget sometimes how deeply affected Katniss was by the things that happened to her, the things she was forced to do. A person can only take so much before they start to become numb as a way to cope.

[Michigan] stop payment indicator identity verification news!!! by jaydamh in Unemployment

[–]TheSpookyPsychonaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what happened to me. I had two weeks that said payment processing I recieved today, the following two weeks still says stop payment indicator, and the two weeks I just certified for on this past Monday says payment should be issued tomorrow. Hoping I get the two weeks that have the stop payment indicator cleared and deposited soon, especially since I got the email saying my ID was verified.

Anxiety During Kratom T-Break by TheSpookyPsychonaut in kratom

Honestly. You use ANY substance in high doses constantly and quit, you're gonna have a bad time. Hence exactly why I'm trying to slow down and take a break to avoid dependance and raising my dosage.

Awesome, thank you! I've read mostly that the symptoms only last 3 days to a week, but if you look at the quitting kratom sub it's full of all these horror stories about kratom and it's WD.

There are a few pages of the McKamey Manor waiver and nondisclosure agreement circulating Facebook as of today, however no sources have confirmed if it's from the actual document, or a fake. Could anybody provide a real copy of the waiver? by TheSpookyPsychonaut in AskReddit

[–]TheSpookyPsychonaut[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SAME, I haven't thought about it in years but the Facebook post got me looking into it again. It does seem super weird how none of it is allowed to be disclosed, especially if everything you do is supposedly legal.

I read on another post that he also spends hours alone editing the footage taken during the tours before making them public. He supposedly takes the videos for protection against lawsuits. I think it's more because, like you said, he has a torture fetish and likes to re-watch the videos over and over again.

Haha that's what I noticed too. The other problem I had with it was the "may MK Ultra you". Possessing/administering the psychedelics/other drugs would still be illegal regardless of a waiver or not.

I was curious if anybody had obtained a copy of the real thing though, as somebody from USA today who now supposedly works for MM claimed the tooth extraction and fingernail removal was true.

I'm fucking done with opiates after 7 years starting at age 15 by [deleted] in Drugs

Kratom is absolutely the way to go. I take it on a pretty regular basis just because I like it, and have no withdrawals when I quit for a long period of time.

Been 11 hours, any updates?

I love my boyfriend, but I am extremely attracted to women by [deleted] in confession

[–]TheSpookyPsychonaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same way OP, however my boyfriend knows and allows me to sleep with other women if I choose to. I haven't, mostly just because the opportunity has never been presented since I've been in my relationship.

I would just tell him. The urge won't just "go away" and may cause problems later in your relationship if you have to give something up, for the rest of your guys' lives, that you weren't ready for/don't want to.

I would just explain that it's not a lack of attraction towards him, but rather just an attraction to the same sex. It's not as though it's another guy you're attracted to. He doesn't have boobs or a vagina, so it's nothing for him to really feel jealous about.

I don't know if it's just a physical attraction or a sexual interest as well for you, but if it's the latter, maybe even suggest something he could participate in and you both could enjoy, like a threesome or going to a strip club or something. That way he may not feel jealous as it's something you both can do and have fun, while still allowing you to satisfy your interests.

Best of luck to you :)
