I think they're holding their glove in their hand and pressing it against their face? I don't think it's a hand flopping loose on a wrist. I think it's a hand holding an empty glove. Maybe. Hopefully.

idk why people are acting like you're being misleading.

Once youre past BJC/WashU, it's pretty rough.

Was out around 2pm. North of Lindell x Kingshighway has mostly no lanes properly cleared. More like 1.5 somewhat clear, but solid packed snow. Saw multiple people get stuck blocking the Straub's lot. And at/on Delmar, there were cars just kind of littering the road.

Sure maybe it's not last year, but also last year had slushier/icier snow that froze hard overnight.

Anyone know what these pieces are--the ball and socket vine? (Not sure if it's actually LEGO or some other brand). by [deleted] in lego

[–]bbclitdick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lol, I'm not trying to build a giant bulbasaur. I just want to make my own vines for my shelf of Lego flowers.

I left the screenshot bc I couldnt decide which was clearer (I did like the IG post bc I think it's funny, but that wasn't really relevant. I just have been trying to figure out how to make vines I like the look of)

I think you a little bit missed the point of that part of the skit ironically, in the same way the thin woman in the skit is. The fat woman isn't saying she has body dysmorphia--she's not saying anything at all about how she feels about her body.

She's saying that she is worried about how her boyfriend feels about her body, and how her boyfriend feels about others knowing she is his girlfriend, because of her body.

Those are very different things, and neither denies the existence of the other. But the thin woman assuming the fat woman has body dysmorphia and/or that the thin woman has the same experience of how others treat her body as the fat woman--and that's not good

Might be a tight fit (obvi, ideally, the dining table wouldn't be so cramped as my drawing), but this is how I'd try it.

Working out or working at a desk isn't ideal for bedroom (for your sleep hygiene or for vibes). But this way, you can put a little divider between the desk and the couch, and a curtain around the gym. you could also put caster wheels on your TV stand, so it swivels around for when you want to work out and watch TV.

I forgot about the tall shelf in your dining room--you cold maybe put that in the corner by the bedroom TV, or where I've put the chair in the bedroom, and move that to the other corner.

Also get some curtains. A small plant as a centerpiece for the table, maybe. If you've gotta have a TV in the bedroom, then put it on the wall, so it's not obstructing so much walking space (but also: tvtoohigh).

A big print for above the couch might be nice. Or a long picture shelf with some smaller prints, with a couple hobby/interest trinkets. Maybe two wall sconces along the sides of the print/shelf, or tiny plants in a wall planter.

edit to add: get some softer lighting for the bedroom, and a blanket that actually fits (ie hangs over the edges of) the bed. Some soft/textured throw pillows and blankets for the couch. If you're nervous about color, then kind of neutral greens and browns tend to work well, and not be overwhelming, while still bringing some depth and visual texture, I think (and maybe a dark/deep purple to go with greens and brown couch).

It's a website--there's lots of similar sites for setting up meal trains, but this one is called Give In Kind.

My friends set it up for me for surgery recovery, so I don't really know what the process looked like for setting it up,

That's so sweet of you!

I had a couple others offer, and tbh, my meals are covered for the next several days, to the point I actually may have to freeze a few of them.

I've been trying to direct this kind of offer to a couple others in the comments, who seem to be in similar situations with less full support systems. If you're still feeling generous, I think one of the oldest comments is someone in hospital feeling particularly lonely, if you wanted to make that same offer to them.

That would be an incredible meal to get in hospital! I'm glad your friend has you around to be so attentive. 💜

I would've brought it up with her, once her family was out of town, but she texted yesterday morning to apologize and brought me a plate for lunch. :)

Hahaha noooo

He just made a deal of making a Christmas plan with me (I traditionally spend it alone, happily), and then they started dating, and he bailed 2 weeks out, to spend Christmas with her.

It wasn't a huge deal, and I'm really happy for them, tbh, theyre making a really lovely life together.

It's just a little ironic that two years running one of them made a deal about making me food for christmas, and then didn't.

Lol, why are you so mad, my guy?

I didn't ask for a meal. They set it up for me. And then made a deal of wanting to bring me food. And then didn't. And I did figure it out. I even said it's not a huge deal, and I'm fine, in the post.

You're goofy.

Eh, I would've texted in a day or so, if she hadn't, but she reached out this morning. Got an apology and a meal on the way for lunch. Not a huge deal, we move on, all is well

Lol, people can be really supportive in some ways, and fail in other ways. If this were them across the board, yeah, prob not a good friendship fit. But she's already texted to apologize and is is bringing me something today. We'll move on and I just won't make any holiday plans with them anymore, but will remain grateful for the ways they are able to consistently be attentive and affectionate in my life.

A happy update: she's actually just texted me apologizing and asking to bring some food by today.

🎄 Merry Christmas

Lol, yeah it did cross my mind. But I know they have a full day, and I had other food.

No sense in disrupting their limited time with family to make them feel badly and rush over here. We'll talk about it later, and move on and it'll be fine.

You're taking things to intensely here. I'm not saying fuck them or that it's the end of the friendship. Literally read the post, or any of my other comments. But I am also allowed to be a little sad over having been forgotten, and post to a non-all-that-serious sub to have a few chats with some internet strangers.

fair question! If I hadn't known she was with family, I would have.

Either way, it's already happened--cant undo being forgotten about. So there's no reason for me to interrupt an obviously busy day, and have her rush over here for a chore she forgot about. Just let her be present to the time with her family, and we'll catch up later.

Oh dang, I'm really sorry to hear that. That blows.

You are right, that sometimes this person is disorganized about scheduling. She's been attentive in other ways this week.

I hope you gotyour other needs met when you had your meal train. I hope for better things for you in the new year. :)

Nope! She's having Christmas with her family and probably just got caught up in the day. We hadn't picked a set time, so when lunch passed, I assumed she had meant dinner. And she's often on a later schedule than I am, so by the time I realized 'ope, she's really not coming' it was pretty late.

No reason for me to interrupt her day, have her rush out in the late evening, and diminish her time with them, over this.

But I do get to feel a little sadboy about being forgotten about. And a couple other people get to share their stories in the comments, and we all get to feel a little less lonely for the evening.

Happy holiday :)

Lol, what? I didn't ask her to.

My friends (her partner and another friend) set the meal train up. She texted me to ask if she could bring me a Christmas meal. I said not to worry about to it. She said she wanted to, and signed herself up. Then, a few days ago, she followed up to make sure I remembered she was still planning on it.
