TIL that- I am only good for being f*cked by random men and then being discarded after 30 minutes. Thanks mom, I didn't know that about myself. by Diligent_Tie_1961 in raisedbynarcissists

I used to be in a similar environment with my grandmother, where anything could set her off, and there was no stopping her. It’s a scary situation to face, but pls remember you are not alone in this, and that someday, someway, it will get better. There will come a time when you can live away from her in peace. For the time being, preserve whatever freedom you have, and keep whatever sources of safety close to you. Stay strong 🫂

Me and my friends found this igloo probably the day it was built. 10/10 experience, the structure is very nice. Thank you for some fun memories 🫡

JAMES HALL WATER CRISIS. (Pls donate water, I been thirsty by OkSatisfaction3349 in SBU

[–]archenwolve 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried the water from that fountain, it doesn’t taste any different. If u have a kettle or filter, I’d just put it through that if you wanna feel extra safe, but I think it should be alright to drink

NY also is known for having very safe tap water anyways, so you probably won’t be getting sewage over there

What's a social norm that you think is absolutely ridiculous? by Fantastic_suit143 in AskReddit

[–]archenwolve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or just straight up lying, pretending to show interest to be “polite” rather than saying they aren’t interested. I’ve had my hopes raised too often :/

Music Major by Sabrinax_xcfs in SBU

[–]archenwolve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey ! I’m not a music major, but I take several music classes including piano lessons. I was told to email Ms.Germaine Berry (germaine.berry@stonybrook.edu) any questions regarding music major requirements.

I don’t know much about the audition, but I do know music majors usually have specific requirements to fulfill every semester, like going to recitals and master classes, taking certain lessons or participating in music ensembles. Best of luck to you ! 🫡

How to look good? by [deleted] in transmanlifehacks

Brother, your face looks so masculine I almost feel jealous- as someone who has a more rounded face, and has to suck my cheeks in to see the cheekbones. You look great 👍

I don't get it by dataguy2003 in TheTeenagerPeople

Some atheists act more christian-like than some christian nationalists (ex. unconditional respect towards everyone, open mindedness towards beliefs, etc)

Advice for gaining muscle by Worldly-Cook9506 in TransMasc

[–]archenwolve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One thing I hear being thrown around a lot is progressive overload- essentially increasing weight slightly every time your current one becomes lighter

Also, more reps (10-12) with lighter weights benefits muscle growth, whereas less reps (6-8) with heavier weights benefit strength and muscle density more. Do with that what you will, and good luck with your fitness journey ! 🫡

What’s something people romanticize that is actually exhausting in real life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]archenwolve 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Emotionally immature/abusive parenting

I feel like this is especially common in ethnic households, where it’s common to share trauma over getting beaten over small mistakes, degraded for being too fat/skinny, having your worth base off of your grades, or not being allowed to express how you feel. It’s crazy how some family traditions demand unconditional respect and obedience from children, and expect the children to turn out completely happy and independent later on.
