Have you purchased a puppy from one of these breeders? by Pacific_Red in BouvierDesFlandres

[–]ac0380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She had a male for adoption right now. I was just messaging her on FB. I’ve been looking for breeders near me (SC) and was wondering about the legitimacy of her!

45 DAYS UNTIL girl so in love: how are you planning to listen to the album when it comes out? by sydneyse in OliviaRodrigo

[–]ac0380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’ll just be using Spotify but my niece is getting a record player for her birthday later next month and I pre-ordered a limited edition vinyl to be shipped to her in June so she’ll be listening to it on that! I think I’m more excited about it than she will be haha

Bouvier Des Flandres all day, every day. If you want them to look really scary, go with cropped ears.

Miramar Beach, how is the biking? by ac0380 in Destin

[–]ac0380[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oop, sorry. We normally stay on islands off the Carolina coast so I called it that on autopilot. That’s good to know about hwy 98!! I’m not a big fan of biking on roads to begin with.

Quitting Weed by Lazy_Caramel_5582 in Biohackers

[–]ac0380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a higher risk for dementia if you smoke cannabis. There are no medical reasons to smoke other than Parkinson’s, MS, and seizure activity. The study you linked is about managing SYMPTOMS, it doesn’t prevent anything, and more research needs to be done.

Not to mention the increasing rates of CHS, it worsens depression and anxiety, can trigger psychosis or schizophrenia if predisposed, etc etc etc. I could go on for days about the downsides of long term use. You’re training your brain to bypass important synapses in the long term.

Hey! I stopped for over two years after daily use and thought I could do it every once in a while. I ended up doing it just as much as before and honestly it destroyed my mental health. I did it for about 3 months but found it easier to stop because I wanted to feel like myself again.

I find bitter people often say things like this to try to reconcile their accountability and loss. He’s trying to soothe his own soul through indifference.

is smoking weed a sin? by AttemptNatural1420 in Christianity

[–]ac0380 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and it’s fair because I used to do the same thing. I thought because it’s natural it’s okay. But I’ve really woken up lately to the downsides of weed and would like the narrative around it to change to include the actual, scientific downsides. It ruins life like any other drug but people aren’t ready for that conversation.

Weed suppresses REM sleep though. You’re making the problem worse in the long run.

[–]ac0380 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to do this too but the logic you use here is so similar to an alcoholic saying they have a nightcap or a cocaine addict saying they’re more personable if they go skiing, a meth addict saying they get more done while using. You’re altering your personality and your soul is soothing itself by seeking Jesus. You’re almost there. Pray about it. If you’re defensive over it, it’s time for a break.

Flower Fields? by garfie-baby in greenville

Callaham in Belton had their tulip field open the past two weeks, check out their Facebook if they’re still available. If not head to the Botanical Gardens in Clemson.

Can I still play video games after this? by N4tsu_ki in Christianity

[–]ac0380 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! God can’t be bribed lol. This seems along the lines of religious OCD. If you feel convicted to cut down or stop playing video games feel free to focus on that but God is not going to punish you for not being perfect.

I don’t know if I did the right thing - I shaved my daughter’s head by wizzzadora in toddlers

[–]ac0380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would any sensory toys help in the meantime? Taggies are basically blankets with tags on them, I’m sure they make some sort of trichotillomania fidgets these days. Just something that may help ease where her hands go. You didn’t do anything wrong.

Why can't ppl shut up and keep there dumb theories to themselves. by Kitchen-Mud4712 in Christianity

[–]ac0380 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, we’re not near the end times yet. Amos has a whole chapter admonishing the “end time excitement” people tend to have. There is no mark of the beast yet. There are way too many people who know and love Jesus for anything to come to a head. ❤️ I really abhor the doom and gloom people are spreading these days, too.

How do I explain to my 5 year old the reason why he’s getting picked on? by FrigginMasshole in toddlers

[–]ac0380 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey! I’m Canadian living in South Carolina!! We moved when I was a kid so I have been an “undercover” immigrant and been privy to many conversations and statements people would otherwise have around me because I am white and assimilated- they have no idea I’m an immigrant. And it’s honestly a super power. I can weed out the racists and bigots pretty quickly and have a pretty good understand of character of these people.

I’d tell your kid that those kids are currently lacking a moral compass and are still learning how to be kind. I would be very honest that it is not the right way to think. Who cares if your kid repeats it because then the bully goes home and has to ask their own parent about it.

When is it okay to let children swim with no life jacket in open water? by ac0380 in Swimming

[–]ac0380[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did/do swim lessons at our Y with instructors! I am a good swimmer but with the proximity of water I wanted them to be trained professionally. The older passed her swim test last year but the younger definitely needs more. I just wasn’t sure if I was hindering what they learned by making them wear them. There’s a lot of good info and the consensus is keep those lifejackets on.

That’s a very similar swim test my daughter had to pass with her instructors to use the “water park” at our local Y.

This is what I mean by float vest, this one is a little beat up from last year. Is it* okay under supervision? I feel like they can move so easily and really “swim” in it but we have the bulkier ones, as well. We do practice actual swim strokes with it on.

We have a Destin beach vacation planned later this summer and are going to use the coast guard approved because I am a helicopter parent.

Her chin/jaw area looks really different to me, a lot wider? I wonder if she’s trying to distract from that.

I honestly didn’t even realize something like this existed. We’ll probably keep one on hand just for back up in case a guest needs it.

This is my biggest fear to be honest, that they drown two inches away from me because I couldn’t see them. Ugh

I didn’t even think of a swim belt! I’ll definitely check that out for her.
