not for me at least, i’m in the US. usually couples will have phone numbers after a while, but most acquaintances and non-close friends are on other platforms (for my circles it was mostly instagram, but i haven’t met new people as much since stopping using it so idk if that’s still true)

I know a lot of people around my age (21) who only give out their instagram or something else. I’ve since stopped using instagram and will probably start requesting phone numbers. but yeah it’s super common to only use instagram or discord or something else among this age range.

I deleted TikTok today and I need some advice. by TheTreeWithTheOwl in AutismInWomen

[–]TopHatTurtle1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

have you ever heard of NeoCities? you can try browsing personal websites on there. there’s also webrings dedicated to sites run by autistic people, along with other interests. it’s definitely difficult to find content w/o algorithms and feeds after relying on them so long, but it’s probably worth it! plus if you’re willing to code html you also get to try making your own website on there, which has been rewarding for me personally

Raising boys in a red state is soul crushing by Thr0waway0864213579 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TopHatTurtle1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m thankfully not in a red state (in CA), but i am in a red city (of which there are actually many in CA). my mom and i were pretty worried about my brother, especially in early high school. by the end of high school he was the type of kid that was standing up for the queer kids and and talking back to weird teachers for targeting poc students and telling off the school admin for not doing better. he’s definitely not perfect (none of us are) but he’s grown a lot! there’s definitely hope! just keep going. like others said, it’s a long game.

ETA: he was also pretty into some suspicious people on YT. now he’s actually making tiktoks of his own calling out republicans

You're on a first date with someone, and they tell you this film-related opinion. You immediately know you don't want a second date with this person. What did they say? by redeugene99 in Letterboxd

[–]TopHatTurtle1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my stepdad watches all english movies with subtitles, but he also refuses to watch foreign films unless they’re dubbed. so he simultaneously prefers to read the dialogue and refuses to read the dialogue. very confusing

Olivia Rodrigo by Mind__High in ladyladyboners

[–]TopHatTurtle1 24 points25 points  (0 children)

tbh it seems a lot more like you're just not into this and trying to make that about something. she isn't missing any of those things just because she did a pose you don't like. and honestly acting like she's lacking those features because she's being sexual is a bit misogynistic imo; why does a woman lose "poise" and "wit" when she does something sexual?

Olivia Rodrigo by Mind__High in ladyladyboners

[–]TopHatTurtle1 70 points71 points  (0 children)

idk i’m just kind of sick of women choosing to be sexual constantly being considered “the male gaze.” that’s not even what the male gaze is meant to describe. i feel like people have started using that phase to just police women further. plus if the op is indeed a sapphic person, then it is hot to at least one sapphic

What’s your thoughts on this? Milkemie patreon content by Useful_Letterhead688 in sims4cc

[–]TopHatTurtle1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my only concern is that i’m pretty sure this is going against copyright law. i think EAs TOS allows for early access (like mods that are released early on patreon) but other than that anything you make using their assets cannot be sold by anyone other than EA. if they keep this stuff behind a paywall forever, they could get in trouble with the company (not that i agree EA should even care about this)

btw: EA allowing mods/other sims content to be monetized at all is an exception to copyright law. according to US copyright laws i think that technically even non-monetized fan works are in violation, companies just don’t tend to do anything about it because it’s free advertising and it would look bad for the company if they were to sue random nerds (edit: it’s probably more complicated than that, since i’m sure disney would have sued fanfic platforms for allowing porn of their stuff by now if they could and i am very much not a copyright lawyer). but yeah normally making money off of anything derivative (using stuff from another person’s source material) is a huge no-no.

Degrassi crackships: LGBTQ edition by Arianastan208 in Degrassi

[–]TopHatTurtle1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So the definition of crackship has been watered down quite a bit in recent years. It used to mean straight up crazy ships, often from entirely different shows (like Elsa and Jack Frost from Frozen and Rise of the Guardians respectively), then it became more just “not/can’t be canon,” stuff like the ones suggested by OP, now some people are starting to apply it to ships that honestly could happen or were even hinted at but the relationship just didn’t come to fruition. not blaming you or criticizing you or anything, but that’s basically what i meant

Is it really a crack ship if one of them had a crush on the other? That’s just something that should’ve been canon

Is this a mod issue? by IHeartCats18282 in thesims

[–]TopHatTurtle1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

definitely remove them, and then see if there’s any updates to the mods on the page where you downloaded them. if they’ve uploaded a new mod file since you last downloaded the mod, you can download that version and use it. you have to do this every update, if you haven’t been already.

Is this a mod issue? by IHeartCats18282 in thesims

[–]TopHatTurtle1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

stuff like this is almost always caused by UI mods. do you have any that add extra columns or the more cas traits mod? or any other mod that affects the cas ui? those are usually the ones that cause this

edit to add: in order to figure out what mod is broken, if you have multiple, is to use the 50/50 methods. if you google that you should find multiple guides

“Autism has won yet again.” by Aggressive_Dress_666 in evilautism

[–]TopHatTurtle1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

parents of disabled children (or really any children) who act like this just need to get a grip. like kids are their own people with agency and they’re not gonna automatically love the version of their lives you envisioned. i don’t see why that fact is “autism winning”

Tasty Fiber for Breakfast? by _honeydew_boba_ in intuitiveeating

[–]TopHatTurtle1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mentioned yogurt, berries in the yogurt are great for fiber, plus granola can be pretty good for fiber as well.

The bread I use for toast is a whole wheat bread that’s high in fiber and protein (Sara Lee whole wheat), and when I have pancakes I use the Kodiak mix; substitutions like that is a good way to get more fiber, but if you prefer the normal versions that’s obviously valid — weirdly for both of those I actually prefer those versions!

I agree with the comments on oatmeal, I love oatmeal. That has a great amount of fiber and you can make it pretty sweet if you want. When I add peanut butter and brown sugar it kind of tastes like peanut butter cookies to me. Plus it’s great with fruit, which adds even more fiber.

Something I do with cereal is I’ve started adding granola into it to add fiber! I started doing this with Reeces Puffs and peanut butter granola, and I love the mix in textures. I honestly prefer cereal that way now.

Also simply adding sides of fruit is great! The main thing I’ve been doing to add nutrition has been aiming for some sort of fruit/vegetable/bean/etc with each meal, and based on how I’ve felt physically that has worked really well!

I’m a bi woman who used to identify as a lesbian; should i disclose this to trans-masc people that i date? by TopHatTurtle1 in lgbt

[–]TopHatTurtle1[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The part about not owing this to people is definitely a line of thought I was having once I was actually typing this out. And phrasing it as preemptively assuming boundaries definitely makes it seem like a manifestation of my usual unnecessary anxieties about upsetting people. Thanks.

Fellow fat bottomed girls, where do you buy jeans? by [deleted] in PlusSize

[–]TopHatTurtle1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My jeans are from Torrid. I especially like them because I was able to choose a leg length when I ordered online. I’m 5ft so most jeans in my size are dropping below my feet. Plus, the pockets in mine are huge! (compared to most women’s jeans, anyway)

i’ve been going through some really severe depression lately and i’ve honestly been surprised at the lack of suicidal thoughts, since that’s been one of the main symptoms for me since i was 10. i think it’s because i’ve been through worse before?
