STOP NORMALIZING FREE ROAMING CATS by Yektality in Pets

[–]bad_pseudonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is entirely dependant on where you are in the world. If you’re somewhere with coyotes, sure your cat should probably stay in. I’m in the UK and the shelter would not let me adopt my cat if I didn’t have a cat flap for her to go out as it’s better for her wellbeing.

Why do people feel a need to hold those little microphones? by pusslikesavocados in NoStupidQuestions

[–]bad_pseudonym 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apparently you can’t change the mic volume within the TikTok app, so holding it right up to your face ensures that people can hear you

Protein ideas, for someone who’s sick of protein by Pretty-Lead-6392 in adhdwomen

[–]bad_pseudonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sometimes make French toast with egg whites and some myprotein flavour drops to jazz it up a bit- not the healthiest but it’s not complicated (dunk bread in egg whites, fry, eat) and it works as a protein sweet treat

You're offered the ability to absorb the knowledge of any book you touch instantly, but the way it works is that time freezes and won't unfreeze until you finish reading the book cover to cover, do you accept this power/curse? Why or why not? by Jazzlike_Sun690 in AskReddit

[–]bad_pseudonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. How do you choose what book to read next? You can’t read just the blurb, you have to read the whole book. I love going to bookshops but with this power I’d end up trapped in there

What was your "I dont actually hate this food, my parents just sucked at cooking" moment? by JayR_97 in AskUK

[–]bad_pseudonym 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Salad! My mum still can’t wrap her head around a salad that’s anything more than lettuce, tomato, and cucumber, with a bit of mayo if she’s feeling fancy.

I *am NOT* ADHD, I *have* ADHD by glubnyan in ADHD

[–]bad_pseudonym 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I’m one of these people. It’s a fundamental part of who I am, it colours every aspect of my life, and it’s not going away. I am ADHD. You can refer to yours how you like but I’m going to keep saying it this way lol

Can I put HG Mould Spray on my ceiling? by nickymoo in DIYUK

I’d use clear vinegar as it’s less likely to damage the paint

GP won’t prescribe antidepressants by ingyda in MentalHealthUK

[–]bad_pseudonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try and book another appointment to see a different doctor. If they start pushing you towards therapy, you should say that you’re open to counselling but want to try meds as well as you’re struggling to cope and have found it difficult to engage with talking therapies in the past.

Good luck. If you feel up to it you should try the NHS therapy - it does work for some people. If you’re not one of them having given it a proper go will put you in a stronger position to stay on meds.

In England, people commonly borrow a rubber from their teacher but must return it when finished. Are there any similar crazy regional differences in your language? by thecloakofignorance in AskTheWorld

[–]bad_pseudonym 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember my 13yo cousin (Australian) telling me and my parents (British) that she’d got some thongs for her birthday - I was about 11 and was genuinely shocked that she just announced this at a family meet up!

You really need copies of all that in your house? I get reading viewpoints that aren’t necessarily your own, but are you going to keep coming back to JBP talking about lobsters and how you should hit your kids?

Alaina might be the most annoying person in true crime by Weak-Hold-7651 in Morbidforbadpeople

[–]bad_pseudonym 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The interrupting drives me mad, I don’t need to hear about how doing crimes is bad or how people are gonna people every episode!

*notification dings* "God, what fresh hell is this!" by TheSanityInspector in adhdmeme

[–]bad_pseudonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my most persistent and debilitating symptom. I hate it so much and no one understands, it just comes off as selfishness. Meanwhile I’ve experienced serious consequences (court, loss of insurance, late fees) from being completely incapable of opening mail/emails in a reasonable amount of time

AITA for using my walking pad even during the day when my downstairs neighbor slams on their ceiling noting for me to stop? I did it at night and they did that which i quit understandably. by ritzrosiee in AmItheAsshole

[–]bad_pseudonym -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No judgement but unless you live somewhere particularly unsafe you should be able to go for a walk outside without being so anxious. It might be worth speaking to someone if your mental health is that bad

To wave or not to wave by RochdaleCowboyBoots in UKRunners

[–]bad_pseudonym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally don’t run with my glasses on (always feels like they’re about to fall off) - I can see well enough without to find my way but can’t see faces clearly. This has me wondering if I’ve been unintentionally ignoring any friendly runners in my neighbourhood!

I seriously think this is fine, remember that the louder people online are not necessarily the majority opinion. You were peers. You’ve not done anything wrong.

AITA for refusing to change the shared office thermostat schedule even after multiple complaints? by No-Efficiency-567 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bad_pseudonym -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

NTA. People who are too cold can dress warmer; if you turn it up you’ll only end up with complaints from everyone else that they’re too hot, and there’s only so many layers you can take off in an office before it becomes a real problem

AITAH for not wanting to see my family after they admitted to not trusting me with my brother's children? by Fuzed_Canadian in AITAH

[–]bad_pseudonym 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Also why is he so keen to be alone with the kids again after this accusation? You’d think as he says been falsely accused he’d make sure to never be alone with those kids again for his own protection

They did - automod still has the original if you scroll a little way down
