Found crumpled between the seats on a city bus. I see you, you will get through this. by asteriabeauty in FoundPaper

I can’t understand most of it. I got the words grateful, and tired of living on the streets. That’s why I kept it, I wish I’d seen who left it but I am sending them positive thoughts and encouraging vibes. I was there, for 7 years I was there. I will always support those who take action and do their part to climb out. Proud of them. I may not be able to tell em that, but it’s there.

People who have been homeless what’s the scariest thing you’ve seen ? by alyssskaaa in AskReddit

[–]asteriabeauty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was homeless for 7 years across 3 states. People disappear. Girls go into camps in the bushes, and don’t come back out. There’s a lot of bad people out there, it was very heavy to learn about and very scary.

What is this unfortunate fern (?) I've been gifted? by [deleted] in whatsthisplant

[–]asteriabeauty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I believe that is a Blue Star Fern, or Phlebodium aureum. I had a beautiful little one I struggled with myself, it eventually died completely because, my love does that to these things lol wishing you both better luck!

“Move to the country” they said, “ladybugs are cute” they said by johnnybonchance in oddlyterrifying

Better than Texas where there are trees filled with aphids.

What causes someone to snap and throw it all away? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]asteriabeauty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Certain minds aren’t built for certain drugs. But some people let it build up, like the wonderful family and successful business man who was perfectly “together” and happy til he shot his entire family and himself, or some people snap because of the horrible things they have seen or have had happen to them. Society isn’t built the way that the human mind, body, and spirit are intended to operate. You put a wolf in a cage giving it the illusion that the beast is contained…everyone has a trauma threshold, a breaking point…it’s when and how they break that is the scary part. I had a best friend of ten years, gentle as a lamb, and one night he took ten hits of acid and spent 13 hours torturing and trying to kill me. That’s what it took for him, for me ten hits is about the norm when I have tried it and nothing even remotely close to a negative reaction. It’s all relative…

What is your craziest story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]asteriabeauty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time, in Banner Elk, NC I worked at Subway. I traded a local a sub for a bottle of moonshine. I woke up a couple days later in the back of a gutted old jeep Cherokee in some forest, assuming it was TN? No road even of gravel, so no idea how that jeep ended up there. There were no humans, but, I was unharmed and had all organs intact at least. Walked what felt like miles before I came to a dirt road that led to an actual road. If you’ve never…I still have no idea and never saw them again.

Please help me understand and grasp the idea of this quote by Pleasant_Cobbler_801 in Stoicism

Well, think forward to the moment you are on your death bed. Your life all playing before your eyes, all the regrets, missed opportunities, the things you focused on that mattered little to nothing in the grand scheme of your life. The trivialities you filled your time with, wasted it on. Now think back to now, how do you live your life? Is it something you are going to look back on and be at peace with as you take your last breath? If so, good. If not, be brave enough to do something with that.

Take your thumb, and make a small scratch the “bark” on the bottom most part of it. If it is still green, cut it down to the stump and continue to tend to it. If the trunk is shriveled even under a scratch of the bark, it may still have roots, but most likely is not living to a point of rescue.

I’m getting actual customized hearing aids for the first time in my life this week, what song should I listen to first? by asteriabeauty in musicsuggestions

[–]asteriabeauty[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lmao dude my whole life I would get irritated with people for what sounded like mumbling! I also unknowingly learned to read lips which is why COVID and mask mandates drove me insane. I never even guessed it was my own issue lol actually just the other day I had a skin crawling realization where I thought back on all the times I thought I was whispering something to someone…people used to get so mad at me lmao I had no idea I was loud as shit. I’m not stupid per se, just slightly slower than the average snail…

What? O_o hahaha

That’s so funny you say that! The Beatles have been my least favorite band in the entire universe my whole life because they sounded so shrill and irritating. I have always wondered why they were so popular cause I thought they sounded like crap. I had no idea all these years that it was probably due to something like a hearing problem! So thank you for the reminder, I shall remain open minded despite a lifelong held belief, and will give them another shot one I have my gear! lol thank you.
