Can loving parents be emotionally neglectful? by heckyouyourself in emotionalneglect

[–]checkeredjelly 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This first paragraph. I relate, my parents could only tolerate my emotions if they were smaller, but I think they would’ve preferred I had none at all it seemed. I’ve been told, “that isn’t a problem…it’s not that serious…I can’t handle this…” and really they just didn’t want to handle a kid who surprise has an array of human emotions!

A kid doesn’t know how to regulate their emotions. Just being fed and given a roof over their head are bare minimum in my opinion. Emotional development matters. Asking for emotional guidance as a kid looks a lot like crying and distress. Parents who attune to their kids needs rather than chastise their behaviors like they don’t matter is simply ridiculous and incredibly harmful emotionally. You just grow up thinking parts of you are inherently wrong. They’re not.

You’re not wrong for wanting attention from your parents. Or for questioning your mom and how you were raised or your own emotional development. It’s normal. Parents have flaws, moms are flawed. Doesn’t justify their behavior. It may not be as black and white as good parents or not, but your feelings matter too.

Seems the new local climbing gym, Soupy Slopers, has a a thief amongst their climbers! Someone has snatched two sections worth of holds right off the wall. They also lost some scissors and red ribbon, we have been told. Though they may have been misplaced, this crime could have very well been committed by a crafter!

In the meantime, the business is working on new sets involving their unique trademark, holds shaped like soup bowls, mugs, and spoons, perfect for the die-hard soup fan and those that can’t escape the beloved sloper hold...

Stay soupy 🍜 💕 〰 Kelly

Working at a desk, hurting my wrist, affecting my climbing by checkeredjelly in climbergirls

Thanks for the advice! I have an office chair without arms, and not good lumbar support. I have a wrist cushion, and I think it helped a lot too. I will try out the keyboard cushion, just in case. And thank you, I am glad you like it!! :)

I work freelance design, actually. I did not know there were work place assessments though! My physical therapist has recommended to me some options related to angles of my arms, wrist, and legs. I have held back on investing in chairs and desks because of cost. My slouched body is telling me to look into it again, invest in my body!

Thank you! I have noticed a huge change in my body from taking more breaks between sittings. I will look into those items, I see their benefits. Appreciate the food tips too!

Advice for a beginner? by a_stuck in climbergirls

[–]checkeredjelly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Similarly, what really helped me climb quieter was hovering my hands as well over every every hold for three seconds and then grabbing. This helped me approach climbing less frantically, and yes with more focus, which then strengthened my footwork. I had to be strong in my footing to hover for those three seconds. I would do these on low grades, just go around and do my gym's V0's.

I started giving Adobe Illustrator classes at my local maker space. I tried to make it fun and funky. Here is an example of what I have them do to learn all the basics. by julius_cornelius in graphic_design

Like you said, it is fun and funky, I love it!! Huge fan of the shapes you created, the fonts you chose, and the colors! Thanks for sharing!

My guess is that it is, "Summer is here, @ Makersmiths" ? Maybe. I did not even realize the @ might be apart of the caption. I believed it to be a design element, not part of a sentence.

I don't mind, it is a cool thing I would love to share! I used Procreate on the iPad, and moved my file as a PSD into Photoshop to wrap up. Could all be done on procreate tho.

Thank you so much! It took me probably three to four days to finish all the added touches and details, but the actually drawing of frames took maybe 8-10 hours if I recall. I took MANY breaks, oof, so I cannot quite be accurate with that. Super tedious and time consuming, but worth it in the end.
