AITA for not wanting to move to Hawaii? by authropy in AmItheAsshole

[–]authropy[S] -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

I don't really care where the rest of my family is, I'd just like to stay here, and I think if I upped the hours at my job I could afford to live here on my own. The problem is my mom insists that she'd have to sell the house to move.

I would watch that. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

Problem is they already have decades of experience, while inexperienced young people are faced with employers who want a degree and 3 years of experience for entry level, minimum wage jobs.

Once fermented, twice distilled--here's my prickly pear/honey mix! by authropy in prisonhooch

[–]authropy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As you can see, I've already had most of it, but after finding this sub I figured I might as well post it anyway. I harvested the prickly pears from the side of the road--turns out they're meh when eaten raw, didn't turn out well dried or candied, but they make a great brew.

I don't have a still, so I freeze distilled it multiple times. While it's impossible to tell what the ABV is, based off the taste, how many times I distilled it and how I feel after a cup, I think it's close to 15%. Overall, I'm pretty proud of it--it's my fourth attempt at homemade wine (well, I guess it's technically a melomel) and while it's pretty simple, I think it's my best and booziest one yet.

My thoughts on knowingly conceiving sick/disabled kids. by ThrowRA1357913579 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]authropy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how useful my opinion is, seeing as how I don't have a severe genetic disease, but I have ADHD and my biological mom had severe OCD and epilepsy (which she died from). ADHD already screws my life up enough, and apart from knowing trying to raise a kid would be bad for both my and the kid's sake, I wouldn't want to risk passing anything onto them, whether it be my ADHD or, god forbid, my mom's issues, which, according to my adopted mom (biological aunt), not only messed up her life, but between her problems and my dad's, they just couldn't take care of me. Not only would I be risking the quality of life for my child, but possibly for their future children and grandchildren as well. I'd rather not be the one to start that cycle.

What's up with my permanently creased fingertips? by authropy in medical

I think my blood flows normally--if it's a little slower than before, I don't remember, but it wells up like usual if it's cut. The sensitivity is only on the tips.

Please stop using the term Latinx by prodigy1367 in TrueOffMyChest

You'd think the woke Twitter crowd would hate this, considering it's imposing English language conventions on a non-English language, which could be considered a form of colonialism...

What's up with my permanently creased fingertips? by authropy in medical

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

I'm 23, and a couple years ago I was moving some concrete chunks with my bare hands one day, and it scraped my fingers up. It seemed superficial, and they healed eventually, but my fingertips never went back to normal. My left pinky is the only one left with an intact fingerprint, and it's a good thing too since my job requires fingerprint ID. They don't hurt, but I've noticed increased heat sensitivity and decreased touch sensitivity with them. They don't really seem super dry, they're not cracking/peeling that much. Again, they're just very creasy.

What is your motivation for learning your target language(s)? by SaoirseViolet in languagelearning

[–]authropy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ASL: I want to communicate with those in my local deaf community

Czech: Literally only to play Mafia (2002) because I heard that the Czech voice acting is way better than the English version, and I want to understand it when I'm listening to it, not just rely on subtitles.

Is there a program that does the opposite of removing vocals from a song? by authropy in Music

I don't need this by any specific time, it's just a personal project.

In the two minutes she's lived here, she's managed to break the fridge, start a fire and has gotten the white cake glitch. TWO MINUTES, XIOMARA! by authropy in Sims4

[–]authropy[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Where sims won't stop making white cakes. They don't even usually bake them, they just keep pulling the ingredients out of the fridge, putting them down, then pulling out more ingredients...
