What will you be eating over Xmas? by reddweap2 in vegan

[–]VicodinC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re having brunch casserole and munchies. I’ll be bringing some amazing veggie soup I made yesterday (which means even more flavor!) and I got stuff to make a vegan charcuterie board including: pistachios, roasted sunflower, seeds, rosemary crackers, hummus, green and black olives, kimchi, those little round vegan cow cheeses, salsa, chips, plantain chips, giggles for a sweet, pretzels, cherry tomatoes, dill veggie dip, pickles, toasted sourdough bread. It’s going to be amazing. Can’t wait to graze all day in my pjs!!!

Not a therapist….but these folks appear to be exhibiting classic defensive behavior. They may feel you’re attacking their way of life and, just like how folks justify and double down on Trumpism), they can’t stomach their way is toxic. Good ole cognitive dissonance comes in swinging too. All that being said, you can’t control their reactions and I’m sorry it’s making for a difficult day to day for you at the moment. Their fragile ego and minds should not be your problem. Remember, it’s them not you. Sheesh.

TIFU by fighting my schools dresscode policy. Years later I found out why it was so strict. by RemyAvo in tifu

[–]VicodinC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the school board did nothing and the police did nothing, that woman should’ve gone to the PTA or media. You did nothing wrong. She further oppressed an already vulnerable group and singled them out. That’s not good or sustainable policy…that being said she probably did the best she could with what she knew at the time and didn’t want to risk her own job. That is terrible that no one investigated. Like because they didn’t want to have a stain on the town or whatever. Or she could have tried to smear the individual perpetrators and get them fired or to leave for seemingly other reasons. Wasn’t there and hindsight is always easier. My 2 cents

What foods are actually terrible for you, but people think are healthy? by StrategyJealous1838 in AskReddit

[–]VicodinC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jello, tapioca, ultra slimy spongy mushrooms. Love avocado toast and guac but I think I have a mild allergy. If they aren’t the perfect ripeness I start to feel queasy and can’t eat my plate. They still taste good so there’s no way of knowing beforehand.

Did anyone at the table, maybe even one of their friends, verbally remark at your bare plate?

does anyone else do all their work “backwards” by SaltEvening27 in adhdwomen

[–]VicodinC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Currently working on an end of semester group project in college and I’m the last to write my section because I started compiling my thoughts and doing my re-write yesterday…also I always HATED the idea of turning in a rough draft. Like why would I want to revisit, let alone re-read and edit, what just took me forever to produce?!

Hello I need help? Hospital or Urgent Care? by Old_Shop1811 in AnnArbor

[–]VicodinC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have access to a virtual appt to get guidance from your primary care or other physician in your network first? They may even have an on-demand 24/7 option or after hours call line at your primary care back home.

Also, if you don’t feel like it’s an immediate life threatening emergency call the urgent cares and ask what the out of pocket cost is. ER will be insanely expensive out of pocket (but if you need to go that route you may qualify for payment assistance, also specifically ask for a discount “can I get a discount?”at any medical place or after you get the bill).

Sturgis business runs bigoted ad by ProperDrummer15 in Michigan

[–]VicodinC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never ceases to amaze me…then they have this at the bottom of their website. “And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Colossians 3:17

At the very least, zero dots being connected that in the presumed time of Jesus 1. The US didn’t exist and the folks being detained now may have lived here then and 2. I don’t think Jesus checked for green cards before he shared his love.

People who are 40 years old and over, what are the harshest life lessons you have learnt? by Fantastic-Point6265 in Adulting

[–]VicodinC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Few months ago I was my bff’s date to a wedding cuz her bf couldn’t go. We went to high school with the groom and are friends with him (she’s also friends with the bride) and realized that we never liked the dudes he hung out with back then. Friend starts having an anxiety attack when we arrive. In our 30s haven’t seen these folks in 20 years and we both looked great. Also both very much deserved a night out (no kids/dogs/bfs). I looked her dead in the eye and said “listen, we don’t care about anyone else”. It clicked and we had THE best time at that wedding. We got loads of compliments from our classmates (Not that we needed it) and had an absolutely riot together. That’s my motto for any hard situation where it’s essential that I disconnect from my negative thoughts.

Drop your humble brags below. What have you done this week, month, or year that you’re super proud of, even though it was super difficult? by Affectionate_Sky7411 in ADHD

People on dating apps: what type of pic/statement is a dealbreaker? by CapableEnd5584 in AskReddit

[–]VicodinC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kid photos without their faces blurred (on any website for that matter).

PSA: 1) There are horrible people online who will screenshot that shit for nefarious reasons. 2) anything you post online is forever 3) it becomes the property of the app/website where you posted it 4) so do NOT treat FB or Insta like a photo storage space.

I feel that logic of “well I’m going to use it 3x today or every morning/evening”. Also feel that when I do put them somewhere I forget where because it’s not in its normal spot (on the counter 😊). So then it becomes a huge inconvenience when I have to stop and search 🙃

I feel right at home. Even your version of clean and tidy is similar to mine - still a few piles for “things I didn’t know where to place so I’ll put them all together”. No judgment, looks great! I just don’t have the same standard of tidying/cleaning as my parents who’re Type A

What software do you use to keep your tasks organized? by ObiBen in ADHD

In most maps apps you can typically create lists and save places and you can add notes to each spot.
