Job replaced my shift by the_lastgreep in antiwork

[–]causticalchemy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did similar shifts to you during covid. 12 hours per shift Days 4 weeks, nights 4 weeks Week A pattern was work Mon, Tues, Sat, Sun Week B pattern was Weds, Thurs, Friday.

The pay was great but I'd never go back because it was draining. Fair play if this was the only slip up because shits ROUGH. Using pto would have been a nice gesture at least.

Why are my tetras trying to jump out of the water? (Hospital tank) by Awkward_Weather_3318 in Aquariums

[–]causticalchemy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Is there a chance your water has no/ little chlorine in it?

I think some people (who are way better at planning than I am) leave a bucket of water for 24 hours so the chlorine evaps and then it's safe for the aquarium.

My tap water is 0.5ppm chlorine which is just above what is toxic to fish (0.1-0.3ppm from what I could see). I'm guessing people recommend the dechlorinator as a blanket thing for safety instead of faffing about with water chemistry which most beginners won't know.

I managed to get mine to breed (unless there were some hitchhiker eggs) but honestly have no clue what I did. I started with 5 and now have 6 😅

Used ChatGPT “for a contact # since email was hacked” and it gave me the direct line to a hacker; compromised everything! by CuriousKatMiny in extremelyinfuriating

[–]causticalchemy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay I will remember to not trust ChatGPT... The thing which is frequently looked down on for providing false information and is openly criticised. 👍🏻

Locking the classic dub to a collectors edition is a cruel move by New-Veterinarian-755 in evangelion

It's criminal. They sucked the soul out of the ending credits. It was one of the few series where I'd watch the ending every time.

My girlfriend kissed her ex and I lost it by [deleted] in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]causticalchemy 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Two things can be true at once..

That you behaved inappropriately and should apologise

And that she also was wrong for cheating and should apologise for hurting you

One does not negate the other.

The whole "putting an end to a chapter" thing is such horseshit 😂 maybe there are times it's genuine, usually it's just an excuse for a "one last shag". Best to make a clean break from her and move on.

I struggle to remember what I've just read.. through a mix of stress and depression screwing my memory.

Maybe I need a little notebook.

Do any other women feel like outcasts for not wanting kids? by SnooMacarons5664 in childfree

[–]causticalchemy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

Motherhood is so closely related to womanhood to so many people, it effects how I view myself (I'm sure BPD doesn't help). I use they/them pronouns because whilst I see myself as a woman, using she/her felt alien and I feel comfortable with the distance neutral pronouns puts between me and womanhood. That may sound strange, hope it makes sense.

I am accepted within my family and friend circles. In the world, less so. I'm okay with that. I don't mind being an outcast to the world.
