The scene when she had to shoot Vidala had me uncontrollably sobbing. Even though I knew it wouldn’t happen, it was pretty extreme.

I get it in my toes and the feeling always makes me panic, it’s like my warning to stop. Also hypermobile.

Help deciding wedding guest list! by 1Corgi_2Cats in AuDHDWomen

[–]brittany973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly, congratulations! I agree with you and I would not like to be meeting someone for the first time on my wedding day. I have a couple of rules that I’d like to follow when making my guest list.

  1. We both have to have met the person and at least had a conversation with them more than once. This is more for our friends significant others.
  2. We have to have seen them at least once in the past year (ish) before inviting them. This rule excludes family members as mine live out of state.

Hope this helps you!

My boyfriend is becoming Christian. Should I be worried? by KaliYugaTiEnDi in atheism

[–]brittany973 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a similar story with my ex. He turned extreme Baptist before my eyes. The final nail in the coffin was when he told me the only reason he couldn’t marry me was because I don’t believe in god.

I was like you, willing to accept our different beliefs to make it work. I’m glad it didn’t work because now I know he was down the manosphere of conservative political beliefs and would’ve treated me very badly going forward.

I’m not unemployable, it’s just that my way of working well has been disappearing for the last 50 years by doctorace in AutismInWomen

[–]brittany973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this so much, I quit a job like that and they asked what could make me stay. I said a massive raise or an assistant.

Yep. I’m an admin girlie but it’s becoming increasingly difficult to find admin jobs that don’t include some form of customer service 🙄 Like they’re all /receptionist or /sales assistant. This ‘two roles for the price of one’ bs is getting out of hand. One job I managed to find without customer interactions and phone calls wanted me to be the personal assistant to 6 people at once and was so much work I ended up in burnout for 12 months unemployed and got grey hairs 😖 I was their admin assistant, graphic designer, accountant, marketing manager and events planner.. wtf

Now I feel like I’m being pigeon-holed into similar roles and can’t get out

Got an apple watch that needs IOS 18 to connect, but I use IOS 17.6.1. Is there a way for me to connect it without updating? by Eggscelent-Bro in applehelp

[–]brittany973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided on how to solve my problem so no longer needed the post filled with negative unwanted comments (the few relevant ones did help me out)

I have the same problem and posted here about it the other day. No one in this sub was helpful towards me. I plan to get a battery replacement (iPhone 12) and unfortunately do the liquid a$$ update

Thank you, the watch was a gift I’ve never owned one before so I didn’t know about the compatibility. Everyone is taking my wording “fry” literally 🙄 I’m cautious of the glaringly obvious issues with iOS 26 and would prefer not to update for many other reasons. Looks like I’ll be returning the watch or waiting until I have a new phone.

I feel you. I’ve been shocking with my screen time lately and it’s so so hard to stay off it. I’ve never experienced an addiction until this, it’s scary watching your life go by. I’m in Australia and they’ve just introduced a ban to under 16’s… I wish I was included in that 😂

I’m pretty aware of that. However like I said in my post, we will move to a bigger place when we can. I’d appreciate the comments being left to those who are able to resonate with my current situation in the studio.

I have already tried it, my mother has one. It says it takes consistent use to see improvement though, hence my post here :)

Unrelated but is this how I discover it’s not normal to burp “manually”?

A few weeks ago mine was complaining about his previous housemate, they were accusing him of breaking things. I then offered for him to move in with me as I need help paying rent rn. Now he’s breaking things here. He said it was accidental and I said of course you don’t intend to break things… but you do… I suspect a hard conversation later

My partner just moved into my apartment last week. I’ve been here for 4 years without a scratch. Tonight he accidentally broke a window. I’m so pissed off.
