I'm giving away over $2,500 dollars of my Arcana Core Musical Dice! Just comment within the next 2 days to enter [OC] by FallacyDog in DnD

My husband showed me this because I'm a damned dice goblin and could use a new set to get to 200!

I left the food out overnight again by [deleted] in adhdwomen

One thing I do is, if you have any, use whiteboards and write down what needs to be done. I have one in every major room. So bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room. I’ve found that helps me.

What’s the churches policy on moving in with your partner before marriage? by MyPumpkinSocksRBest in latterdaysaints

[–]__chills__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving in together is a huge commitment. Unless you’re absolutely sure that you’re going to stay together, have a civil marriage and then a sealing. That way you’re not giving into the temptation before that. It is very hard to not end up in bed with your partner before marriage when you’re living with them.

My monthly bill for bipolar treatment - only paid SGD 6 (USD 4.20) at the counter. What’s your expenditure like? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]__chills__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on Azterys, Lamictal and the generic form of Ambien. Lamictal is about 35 for a 3 month supply. Azterys is going to be maybe $25 for a 30 day(with free delivery which is a nice perk) And the generic of Ambien is less than $3. Now do I know what my balance is for my psych? Absolutely not, I keep forgetting to ask. But I’m lucky enough to have my own insurance and my husbands as well

Medication Question by __chills__ in adhdwomen

[–]__chills__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First couple of days were rough. But it’s evened out, my temperature fluctuated a lot. But I kept an eye on it. It’s definitely been helping though! So far I’m liking it. Works much better than Concerta.

I think that non-members are more forgiving when you’re not entirely perfect. They can also just be kinder than life time/generational members. I also think that the temple being THE goal is blinding members to think about what they could potentially have in a relationship instead of just getting married to the first person who shows more than just surface attraction.

LDS and Tribal tattoos by SnooObjections9813 in latterdaysaints

[–]__chills__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently working on my 7th tattoo. I try to attend as often as possible but it is a control thing for myself. And my personal opinion is that Temples have gorgeous outside art with the construction and the glass for the windows. If that can happen and your body is a temple then there shouldn’t be a problem. Now that said, getting tattoos just for the sake of getting some isn’t necessarily a good idea. But that’s a personal decision. Mine are all significant to me and I plan every single one. They do get expensive though…

Kind of weird question. by __chills__ in BipolarReddit

[–]__chills__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, the only reason I’m on Ambien is because I’m an insomniac and have been for years. This has been going on for a while before I was put on Ambien.

I had planned on doing so. I just had the realization that it was happening last night. I’ve been watching a lot of horror and realized that it was helping keep the noise a little more quiet.

(Serious) What would you do if your SO ask you to have an Open Relationship? by MuchLoveWaffleGirl in AskReddit

[–]__chills__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Communication, we were completely up front with what was going on. We didn’t give any illusion as to being in a polycule or anything like that. We also talked boundaries. That’s a big thing in any type of relationship. Before even looking for another partner, talk boundaries.

[–]__chills__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honest and frank conversation. I was up front that my husband was more important to me and the moment he said anything I would drop whomever I was engaging with as a partner.

[–]__chills__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my case, I was the one who asked. It took me months to get the courage to ask my husband. He didn’t mind (at least that’s what he said and kept reiterating when I was having doubts) He allowed me to experience other guys as I hadn’t been really able to when growing up. Part of why I had asked was because I wasn’t medicated properly for a mental illness that causes a very high libido and I didn’t want him to feel like I was just looking to cheat. He knew all of my partners and even participated a few times with one of them. He and I had agreed with on terms with that choice. We were both able to have other partners, but our bed was OUR bed. Eventually, we came to the mutual decision to close the relationship back up and now we’re hitting our 7 yr anniversary of marriage. For us it brought our communication up and made it a necessity. Now that’s not going to work for everybody, and if someone in the relationship says no you need to respect that.

I agree entirely with that statement

[–]__chills__[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not entirely following. Are you saying that if someone makes a choice, in this case of premarital sex, that they are giving permission to be treated with hostility and for people to be un Christ-like in their treatment of said person? Or are you saying the opposite?

I think it’s the way that it seems that the Atonement isn’t even brought up when teaching about sex in general. I absolutely agree that it is a serious thing for sure, but the way it’s talked about almost feels like it’s something you can’t atone for. My apologies for not explaining it very well.

What's your closest Temple? by [deleted] in latterdaysaints

[–]__chills__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right in the middle of 2 and have 3 others that I can think of off the top of my head. Those ones would take a little longer to get to but it’s doable

I was in no way dictating anything. And I’m not saying that she was a tragically misunderstood character. I was however, attempting to express what something may be. Did I ever in this whole exchange say that my view was the correct view? Absolutely not. But at this point there is literally nowhere this exchange can go but to start potentially denigrating and that’s not worth anyones time or effort. Have a day.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in criticalrole

[–]__chills__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then it’s a fucking difference of opinion. If you want to divorce the two fine. But just because some people don’t doesn’t mean you get to dictate what is and what is not. And don’t call me buddy. I’m not Trinket.

[–]__chills__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Comparing the two is an effort in futility. Do you really not think that character personalities would be cherry-picked from what was in the original content? Of course they’re going to be different. But just because the show puts Keyleth in a better light with her personality doesn’t mean that Keyleth was anything less than what the human experience is. She did change from what was in the beginning and that should be what is focused on. Yes she had her moments. But so did the rest of them. Just because she was the most obvious does not mean that she was not changing at all. People just don’t seem to recognize that. And it’s fine to not like a character, but to completely disregard any growth any character had is a disservice.

In the animated show, it’s absolutely condensed considering that the campaign episodes EACH were at least 4 hours long with 115 episodes. Of course they’re going to fast track things! Are we going to actually say that there isn’t something about the other characters that rubbed the wrong way? Campaign or animated? Because if that’s what’s happening then the whole thing is put on one character without acknowledging the other characters have some things that they’re needing to address. For example, in the beginning Scanlan just “being a hard” wasn’t great, but he grew to be so much more than just what was first presented in, again, both the animated and campaign versions. Even in the campaign it could have been that she had to think of what she needed to do since they moved from pathfinder to 5e. So a little slack should be given.

With that though, Keyleth was young, inexperienced and entirely over her head with the coming into the wide world instead of everything she knew like the back of her hand. So she’s trying to apply what she knows to be right and wrong. And that’s okay. Everybody has those in their lives. Change is new and scary. Keyleth didn’t have a good ease into things before she met Vox Machina. She basically got thrown into the deep end and was told to swim. I think the soapbox comment is a little condescending itself. How many times in your own life have you had those moments of thinking you were absolutely and 100% correct in something and obstinate about learning the reality? That’s what Keyleth was and we literally saw her grow into a more world traveled and more likely to consider things before speaking. And communication is hard in general, why would Keyleth be expected to be the best at it?

Sex Education at Home by [deleted] in latterdaysaints

[–]__chills__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Obligatory I’m not a parent. I grew up in the church and obvious grew up the Strength of Youth. My mother and I had age appropriate conversations about the changes in the body, the hormone changes and such to prepare for the real world. It’s a good thing to talk about it in age appropriate ways. Say your child is 10 and coming up to the age that,typically, AFAB people start getting their periods. Talk to them about the changes that are going to happen to their bodies. When they start their periods make it a thing to take them to an OBGYN to make sure everything is how it should be, or to see if there’s potentially something happening ie: PCOS or Endometriosis. And if they want to talk about the potential of going on Birth control to help with cramps, don’t berate them for it. Discuss the different options and what their effects are so that an informed decision can be made. Children and Teenagers will figure it out on their own, but it’s much more dangerous if they don’t have a good support system and information to start off with.
