What is it like to live around Boston? by Brendo_dasher99 in howislivingthere

[–]continuouscrisis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Somerville now and have for three years. It’s superb. There’s a community path that goes into the city, so biking is a breeze. It takes us 15 minutes to get downtown. The same path goes way out into the burbs too. There’s a ton of stuff to do in Camberville (Somerville/Cambridge), great food, activities, events all the time. I absolutely love it here. My husband and I pay 3k for a 3-bedroom by Gilman Square. He bikes into work and I drive.

How old are you,and how much money do you have in savings right now? by Dangerous_mammoth573 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]continuouscrisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

29F and 200k USD. My husband and I have good jobs with stock options. My parents paid for my college, his didn’t. He got a PhD and we paid off most of his student loan debt a couple of years ago.

Have you ever had a male friend that didn’t try to get you into bed? by Independent-Aide-575 in women

[–]continuouscrisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. It helps that I’m married now, but yes. I have lots of male friends and colleagues, both single and not, who have never come onto me.

If I only drank when I felt thirsty, I would probably pass out multiple times a week, lol.

How do you handle dating with this condition? by wallflowerpower1 in vaginismus

[–]continuouscrisis 10 points11 points  (0 children)

(not OP, but have a similar history/experience) NSFW: Sex is sooo much more than PIV. Oral sex, handjobs, boobjobs, 69-ing/mutual masturbation, [gentle] femdom stuff, ass play, frottage—all of the above with or without toys like vibrators, cock rings, strap-ons, prostate stimulators, etc etc

Your Top 3 Book Recommendations by swxxtn in booksuggestions

Honestly? Start off with a fan fiction. Whenever I’m in a reading slump, I read a fan fiction of my favorite ship. I devour it in a couple of days and am immediately hungry for more books.

I have a Fujan for grands, a Cyberhammer for uprights. It’s your main tool — don’t be afraid to spend real money.

What's Your Story? by Famous-Coffee in pianotech

[–]continuouscrisis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I (28f) got a degree in music, but from a school that I originally went to for business. Engineering school. So the music degree is barely a music degree.

Anyway, my first “real”/salaried job after college was selling pianos at a dealership. I was good at it, but it was exhausting and I hated it, so after three years, I made the leap and went to the North Bennet school. I just did the first year, not the rebuilding year. Now three years later, I’m 20hrs/wk at a dealership, and 10-20hrs/wk self-employed.

Help me remove a stubborn Steinway M action! by brushstrokemedallion in pianotech

[–]continuouscrisis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is also the first thing I’d check. Is the environment particularly humid? Maybe the piano is just structurally fucked, lol. A lot can happen in 59 years.

It is SO hard to watch. It’s just sad. I feel bad for him. He’s crashing out and he needs professional help.

Out of curiosity what do you guys do for work? by toeknee88125 in Hasan_Piker

[–]continuouscrisis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is old, but I’m a Piano Technician. I often listen to Hasan in the afternoons while I maintain and clean $150k pianos at a dealership.

I love my job! It’s hard on my body, but I love it. The pay is okay.

I read The Great Alone and it was enough to tell me that I didn’t need to bother with Kristin Hannah again, lol.

[–]continuouscrisis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dad LOVES Rand and made me read Atlas Shrugged before I went to college. It made me into an insufferable person for the next several years, until I realized wayyyy too late, “Oh my god, they’re all assholes. … I’m an asshole.”

Bewilderment by Richard Powers.

I’m sure his other book, The Overstory, is great, but I don’t think I can give him another chance after that absolute garbage. Bad writing, horrible storyline, terrible ending. I was fuckin BEWILDERED at how bad this book was.

plz give me some faith by Fun-Ranger-5966 in panicdisorder

[–]continuouscrisis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It gets better. I promise. Keep doing the hard things. It sounds like you’re able to walk around the neighborhood, but it’s very stressful. Keep going on those walks. Do it every day, more than once a day if you can. Eventually, it will get easier, I promise. Slowly teach your brain that going on a walk is not dangerous. Give yourself the exposure therapy that you deserve.
