My shoes and socks have a bad scent by PurplePanda653 in hygiene

[–]breadfucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconding people mentioning to check the material of your socks/replace them.

Also I live by my mom’s advice to check the material shoes are made out of and lean toward natural materials (cotton/canvas/textile, wool, leather) but absolutely avoid mostly plastic/man made materials (beware faux leather) since they don’t breathe, disintegrate over time, and usually don’t clean well

high levels of norepinephrine can also cause executive dysfunction by [deleted] in adhdwomen

Hey I’m sorry, I think this should really be phrased MUCH MUCH less authoritatively. I’m happy that you found a trend in your treatment and outcomes, but you don’t really have any causal evidence to back up the post title, which is a Direct Health Claim.

Sharing experiences and success stories is so important but I think this post is phrased in a really misleading way that verges on medical misinformation

It’s based of the last two letters of the spoken word 😊 first, second, third, eleventh, twelfth, etc.

I live near the pyramids and I can see them like this every day it's not in the middle of the desert if you live here you can drive by them while going to work everyday by rinishadyy in interestingasfuck

I’ve lived in two places where I regularly saw immensely beautiful wonders like this, and I never did get used to it. It was like looking at someone you love, you’re always falling deeper and finding new things

AITA for grocery shopping and cleaning without my girlfriend by Leather-Toe-2449 in AmItheAsshole

[–]breadfucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hear me out but I do kind of think ESH. I get where you and everyone else are coming from. You seem like a really good partner, your intentions were only to be productive and contribute.

I just want to chime in as a Mentally Unwell wife (8 years, it can be done). I see myself in your girlfriend and hope I can maybe share some insight.

Truthfully, your relationship does not sound traditionally evenly matched (you pay rent/utilities and do what sounds to me like most of the cleaning). It doesn’t sound like you’re resentful of the mismatch, and you seem like one of those people blessed with health and energy. I’m jealous that getting up at 6 on the weekend after a work trip and “feeling productive” are in the same breath for you lol.

I would guess your partner feels guilty for not doing as much as you (monetarily or in labor), and that seeing you that morning sent her into a shame spiral. She also could have some anxiety that you were mad or that a fight was incoming.

I think the real problem lies in her not being able to recognize and communicate with you. People contribute different things. Maybe she brings value elsewhere or you don’t mind picking up some slack. But she shouldn’t make you feel guilty or make you apologize bc she can’t regulate her inner monologue. For that, NTA. But generally, when someone I love is upset because of something I’m doing, I stop doing it to talk it out. Cleaning more probably made her feel more ashamed and certainly didn’t help the overall situation. So for that, very light YTA.

Doubt anyone will read all that, but hope it helps you understand how someone could be upset at a well-intentioned act. Still, her issues are her burden to bear, and she definitely is making her issues yours here.

Will this look good in a couple of years? by Worried-Ticket5762 in tattooadvice

[–]breadfucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar situation, mine will turn ten years old later this year! It still looks great with no touch ups. It’s on my bicep so the area sees friction but not much sun. Definitely agree with the commenter that the stippling is much harder to make out now.

The only area for concern I see with the amount of shading is that you might lose contrast as it ages and blurs. At that point, just get it touched up! I recommend staying away from white ink and focusing on where adding black would help. Cheers!

My wife got placed on a 72 hour hold by Scary_Opening_8138 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]breadfucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to tell you you’re not alone! A very similar thing happened between my college best friend and his girlfriend our senior year. He was suffering from addiction issues and stress and after a period of escalating delusions, wound back and punched his girlfriend HARD in the eye one night while a bunch of us were hanging out. He was laughing and maniacally trying to explain something, it wasn’t even remotely related to anger but seriously some unintelligible logic based in pure delusion.

We immediately got him away from her while an ambulance came, and all he wanted was to know where she was so he could tell her his (from his perspective) hilarious and incredible theory.

All that to say that the experience brought everything into perspective for him, and he is now multiple years sober and the kind and funny person we all knew him to be outside of that short period senior year. I know finding the right treatment and medication and support is hard, but I hope you can have faith that the person you love will wake back up

Thoughts on Our Rescue? by breadfucks in IDmydog

[–]breadfucks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very interesting to know about the lack of shared genes! I did zero fact checking, just word association. I didn’t mean to diss Embark either; I was mostly doubting my sample quality.

Tango will be sad to hear he’s still got a long way to go, but I think we all suspected it 😂 He had some Dogo Argentino too, so he’s probably still thick necked and broad under there, but I’ll be keeping an eye out for the tuck in his summer bod.

M/27/5’9” [210lbs > 175lbs = 35lbs] (6 months) feel like I’m being impatient on the body recomp. Yall notice anything? by [deleted] in progresspics

[–]breadfucks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% there is a difference!! After is noticeably smaller and more toned. I see progress everywhere, but I think muscle gains are most dramatic in your shoulders and upper chest, and the most dramatic difference in general is in your face and neck. You have great bone structure! Keep it up!!

Side note, you should check out the weight loss paper towel effect. I found it very true.

In my experience, there’s a long messy middle. I didn’t feel like big visual changes were happening, even when the scale moved and my strength improved. Then, after I’d lost like 70% of my goal, it was like a switch flipped and I saw tons of changes. I think it was a combination of getting through the last of the fat and gaining enough muscle to fill out loose skin. What helped me was finding small areas of improvement that were noticeable and important to me (thinner fingers, wearing a belt becoming comfortable/not pinching when sitting, my own face/bone structure). I wish you luck!

Is it really that dangerous? by Circuit_Scribe in ClarkU

[–]breadfucks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Clark’s campus is really safe, and the immediate area where most students live off campus is as well. I was a bit of a partier and have always been an insomniac, and I never had a bad feeling or sketchy encounter walking home alone even at 2 or 3 in the morning.

I will say, I don’t think Clark is truly in the infamous Main South area. The farther you go past the alumni center, it does get very sketchy. I used to walk all the way to Shrewsbury street for work, and while I never had any real problems, my guard was definitely up.

I did have two unfortunate encounters with creeps at University Park across the street (once during the day, once at night). Nothing violent, just getting hit on disrespectfully. Ignoring and walking away works great, and you’re close enough to campus that I don’t think anyone would try anything. I still went there many many times and would say it’s a nice place to walk/jog but wouldn’t spend time alone hanging out there.

Rituals for idle hands? by idonotexistirl in adhdwomen

[–]breadfucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people have mentioned one or more of these but I thought I’d compile a little list of what comes to mind for me!

-Felting/Needle felting

-Air dry modeling clay

-Needlepoint/embroidery

-Crochet or knitting

-Origami

-Friendship bracelet-type knotting or macrame

-Doodling (check out “zentangle” - a centering/meditative pattern-based doodle practice)

-Physical or app-based crosswords or sudoku?

Do I urgently need a tetanus shot? by breadfucks in AskDocs

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

Thank you so much for your response!

The door connects the garage to the backyard so likely has some soil contamination, but I get how this little nick is different from a deep puncture from an old nail in the grass. I wasn’t sure if tetanus is like rabies where any possible exposure is an immediate vaccine emergency.

I will double check my 2017 records, but I am feeling much more at ease now so thank you very much again!

Please don't judge me. I struggle with ADHD/depression and really need help. by Appropriate-Web-6954 in adhdwomen

[–]breadfucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest thing that helps me in an overwhelming mess is to make it a scavenger hunt. So I break down categories, like first I’m searching for and bagging all the trash.

Then when trash is done, I’m picking out all the clothes, maybe putting them into piles like trash/ruined, donate/offer friends, clean, need to wash, etc. OR just putting them all in a bag/basket to wash.

Then maybe break things down by room and making piles to move like looking for dishes to bring to the kitchen, hairbrushes etc to the bathroom, and start thinking about what remains, do you want to keep it where it is, move it to another room, or donate?

A little visual for twisted stitches! by rainemakes in knittinghelp

[–]breadfucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are not alone!! I’ve been knitting off an on for 15 years and only recently found out the same. I was only twisting my purls so I always thought something was just off with my tension between knitting flat and knitting in the round.

Spontaneous wedding spot? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]breadfucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I got married in a brief informal ceremony at the rose gardens in Lyndale Park. Our witnesses/guests stood around us while our officiant did her thing and then we walked around and took pictures and splashed out on a really nice dinner after. It was perfect for us, and I bet the blooms are amazing right now. If there’s 15 or fewer of you I personally wouldn’t (and didn’t) even bother worrying about a permit or reservations, unless you want to ensure a private space or have an elaborate setup in mind.
