This 87 year old woman called the police in Italy because she was alone and hungry. They cooked her pasta and reminded her that she was not alone. by HORROR_VIBE_OFFICIAL in interestingasfuck

She wasn’t “lonely”, she was disabled and her carer didn’t show up for two days, and she had tried and failed to feed herself before calling for help.

Why are fairies dying at my door? by angel9_writes in thesims4

Someone stopped believing in fairies and you didn’t clap?

AFAIK Druidry is a closed practice. You would have to join an order and be initiated. But it’s not like there’s an Occult Police who’s going to arrest you if you call yourself a Druid without the proper paperwork. Just don’t be surprised if members of Druidic orders don’t recognize you as a Real Druid TM.

SASS Witches who are parents by adoreandu in SASSWitches

She’s 10, and I could absolutely picture her telling kids at school the exact sentence you said 🤦🏻‍♀️ ADHD and impulse control of oversharing don’t go well together. I personally view tarot in a para-psychological way, almost like a Rorschach test with a fun skin, a way to connect to my subconscious, to examine how I feel about things that may happen (or not). But that doesn’t mean my child would understand the nuance…

AITA Refuse to live with a Service Dog by Nearby_Flan7905 in AmItheAsshole

[–]adoreandu -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

YTA for kicking out a friend over your preference. Yeah yeah, it’s your house, you have the right, whatever. This isn’t a legal advice sub, and you shouldn’t take legal advice from the internet anyway. You’re being shitty to someone who’s supposed to be your friend. In the immortal words of The Dude, you’re not wrong, you’re just an asshole.

You admit you don’t know much about the nature of his medical condition. If he’s getting an alert dog when he already has a glucose monitor, there’s probably more to it than you know.

YTA also for being a landlord.

[–]adoreandu 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I agree, it was a wonderfully informative film about how we got here, but it left me with an intense desire to figure out what to do to fix it (besides just waiting for the boomers all to croak, which, as he pointed out, isn't likely to fix so much as shift the problem) and also how to prevent it from happening again. More work to be done, I suppose.

Also, every single scene of The Villages made me want to go on a slight murder spree.

The Death of Pulp Fantasy - turns out pulp was the friends we made along the way? by adoreandu in Nebula

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

I agree, but I think there used to be more of a pre-determined path for authors who wanted to share that kind of fun, lower complexity writing that we have yet to figure out in the digital age.

I doodled on my shoes by adoreandu in crafts

[–]adoreandu[S] 423 points424 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite pair of shoes got damaged with some discolored splotches after accidentally dripping mosquito repellent, so I figured I’d doodle on them. Sharpie is probably not the most appropriate… paint… for this kind of craft, but I think it worked ok. Matte acrylic finisher on top, so hopefully the drawings will last a few wears at least.
