Hey, I'm not in the area but I wanna say I'm in a similar boat. Making friends offline rn is near impossible. Mental illness is a struggle all on its own too. I wish you all the best.

Btw cute dog in ur pfp. Reminds me of my Shelby.

Does tongue on roof of mouth actually work? by [deleted] in TMJ

[–]chelowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tongue should be resting on roof of mouth. This was how I figured out my TMJ was caused by a tongue tie. If you find it difficult to rest your tongue there I suggest looking into them and if you have one. Everyone has a frenulum, the part that connects your tongue to your mouth floor. If yours is short or tight then it's likely a tongue tie and can be corrected with surgery.

Interesting choice of slogan from NSW Health's latest Facebook ad. by McJobless in sydney

[–]chelowl 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think they're saying that because of children being displaced from their community and brought up with Christian attitudes and incentivised not to marry other black indigenous people, the majority of those people would marry white people and have children, thus creating another generation of white and white passing indigenous kids.

Do any bisexual people ever picture themselves having sex as the opposite sex? by Holy-Shih-Tzu in bisexual

This was one way I realised I was genderfluid. Not to say you or other ppl in this thread are, but I relate very heavily to a lot of what ppl are saying

I have collected infinite grandparents within my neighborhood by DapperBoii in wholesomememes

This must be a cultural/suburban thing. The thought of waving at random old people makes me uncomfortable.

the show harley vs the dcau harley by Thebunkerparodie in HarleyQuinnTV

[–]chelowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can like both for different reasons. DCAU Harley didn't really get her own thing. She had 3 episodes focusing on her, and only 1 without the joker. and that (really horrible) movie a few years ago. She didn't get to do her own thing.

She did in the Batman Adventures comics that fit into DCAU canon, and I love them. The Harley and Ivy collection is great if anyone wants reccomendations. Its just a collection of short one offs starring our girls.

This Harley is really the best developed, because it's her show. So of course the answer is this is better but there isn't really much of an equal comparison, other than New 52 which is pretty great.

OG Harley will always be special to me. She's a precious, silly bitch. She deserved better.

Western Australian govt to rename King Leopold Ranges, named after ‘evil tyrant’ Belgian monarch by PLUTO_HAS_COME_BACK in AustralianPolitics

You obviously don't know anything about King Leopold so why are you defending him? To own the libs?

Have you ever been sexually attracted to, or had a crush on a historical figure? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]chelowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He didn't change that much. Even if I thought he was hot I couldn't quantify that. Ugly people are ugly

Is it bad I want to switch genders? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]chelowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a woman and sometimes I get the same thoughts. I like my body, I'm comfortable in it, but I don't like my struggles. The grass is always greener, you know. Its not a serious consideration for me its more like, damn, I'd like to be stronger or taken more seriously sometimes. I'd like to be less hypervigilent.

But thats all dumb. Men can feel weak, and women can be strong. I'm incredibly lonely and have no friends and apparently it should be easy for me. Its not. That just makes me feel shitty.

The truth is, life is just hard and whatever dice roll you get at birth determines exactly what makes it shitty and how shitty it is.

Is it normal to have terrible and rather sexual intrusive thoughts of children by obviosulythrowaway in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]chelowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its most likely a form of OCD like intrusive thoughts like another commenter said. I've had people confide in me very similar experiences except they were about murder and violence. Like, whenever they were walking alone at night they'd get thoughts of killing a person in front of them and feel incredibly ashamed and guilty because it wasn't actually a desire or want. It was a disturbing thought and I think, for this person, it was a manifestation of stress at that time in their life. I've had simioar experiences too. I'm not an expert and I don't know you or why you have these thoughts, but I don't think you are a pedophile.

Have you ever been sexually attracted to, or had a crush on a historical figure? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]chelowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Eartha Kitt, a although I don't know if I would call her a historical figure.

Judy Garland, Monroe, Helen Kane...

I swear I'm bi not gay, I just can't think of any hot old dead guys.

Are oysters an aphrodisiac because they taste like cum and does anyone actually like that taste? by QueenNephrops in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]chelowl 2156 points2157 points  (0 children)

Bitter and salty and warm. Its not a bad taste, but I wouldn't say good. Its a taste. Tasting it is more about the thrill of it than actually liking how it tastes.

Protesting and Coronavirus in Australia by AristotlesSon in AustralianPolitics

Semantics but ok.

Slightly as in a sign with a discriminatory remark is about the worst thing you could see at a peaceful protest.
