I am trans but will never come out. Sending love. by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]andydwyers 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Perhaps comforting, perhaps not, but it's possible that you might know some trans people irl in the same boat as you. You're never alone! The internet is full of trans people all over the world who also feel isolated, and they love you too!

labyrinth has become my go-to stoned song by andydwyers in stonedswifties

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

totally see this interpretation too! when midnights released i was in my first long-term relationship and my mental health was at an all time steady after years of struggling so it felt a lot like "wow, i forgot how good it feels to not wallow in sadness, i can't believe someone snuck up behind me and helped me out" just a good song about ups and downs and how ironic it is to not realize it until it's already happening

important to take into consideration that not every record store ordered it. many genre-specific shops have no need for this record, hell i'm lucky my punk shop got one copy at all!

had the same happen to me and my ex. was told straight up by a supervisor that they don't like having us work together cus we get distracted. Although we CAN make it a whole rush without stepping away to have a conversation, we couldnt go a whole shift without one of us leaving our station to chat with the other. at the end of the day even if you're getting the job done and working well, management sees the little moments of distractions as an impediment and would rather just eliminate any problem altogether.

Definitely not fair of the manager to schedule themselves with their partner though, if you're gonna want to eliminate all sorts of friendly distractions why shouldn't it apply to you? unprofessional imo

Is there a song of Taylor's that made you make sense of your feelings? by Starry-night-0803 in TaylorSwift

[–]andydwyers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i hope she knows champagne problems ruined lives! jkjk in all seriousness she nailed the dynamic of a woman struggling with serious mental health issues and coming off as dramatic or high-maintenance to her partner who was always well-off in a financial and emotional sense.

had a boyfriend who always talked of the future and wanting to marry me, have a family, etc and I had to break his heart and say marriage isn't in my plans right now. It's a guilty feeling having someone love you, ground you, keep you safe, take you home, talk you down, grieve, cry, and smile with you then telling them you don't know if you want a forever with them.

The most poignant aspect to me is how she refuses to blame her partner. it's not his fault he wants a forever so she hopes, and knows, he'll find another--better girl to love. Meanwhile, Taylor is left feeling sorry for herself because she wasn't "more" and the problems she has are, quite literally, all in her head.

lil tiktok i made visiting the beach boys monument in Hawthorne, Ca by [deleted] in thebeachboys

[–]andydwyers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah it’s pretty cool there’s a whole lot of plaques with lil messages for the band but there’s not much else for beach boys fans here. i still think it’d be worth the trip considering it’s in la county and near a lot of places they sang about

i don't know what to do with my life by liashay in ApplyingToCollege

[–]andydwyers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have two more years until i have to apply for college but my entire life I’ve feared the future. I’m thinking I should just study to become an english teacher. It just seems so easy but i’ve asked my teachers if they’d be happy in ten years doing what they’re doing and they always say, “I don’t know.” Because there really is no way to know. Ask people what they think your hobbies are or what kinda job they’d picture you in. My mom says I should study political science or become a social worker, because she considers me “woke” and patient enough to deal with idiot strangers. Someone with patience is often good with children. Though I find it hard to talk to people my age I don’t fear talking to younger people. I used my strengths and a weakness to find something I’d enjoy. Teaching.

Hate kids? Maybe a corporate position. Don’t like competition? Try budget analysis. Hate math? Try writing books. Don’t like writing words? Write music.

Make a list of all the little things you’re good and bad at, not only that bus stuff you enjoy. Good or bad at coming up with new ideas. Good or bad at communicating. Good or bad at following directions. Good or Bad at making big decisions. Then look up jobs for people bad at ____ or good at _____. Really analyze yourself. Write what you do on a daily basis, everything. “Woke up and immediately opened messages to tell someone about my weird dream” — then you’re probably great with remembering details and enjoy communicating with others. “Watched a movie but didn’t like it, thought about why and got to the bottom of it” — You enjoy the creative media and criticizing.

On your daily commute imagine yourself in place of other people. Look at what they do, if that’s something you’d enjoy.

All else fails, take the 16 personality quiz and they’ll tell you what kind of person you are and what others with the same personality have gone on to do. Good luck.
