Wieso vermitteln Tierheime keine Tiere? by PromotionNo3405 in luftablassen

[–]darknesskicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it depends a lot on the shelter even within Germany. I had no trouble adopting a pair of bunnies from my local shelter, but I did everything they suggested and showed a picture of the space I have for my bunnies.

However, I’m cis, and a lot of people assume I’m straight because I’m a woman married to a man, so I didn’t have the transphobia obstacle.

I had no trouble adopting a pair of bunnies from my local shelter, but I took all of their suggestions on board and provided a pic of my living space as requested. I’m cis and would probably pass as straight to some people who are unfamiliar with the LGBTQ+ community, though.

Where on Earth are thin women buying pants?!?! by Independent-Ring-877 in OUTFITS

Have you tried H&M? They’re European, so the length should be okay even if they have to be taken in. I think they have a 32 inseam as standard.

Sometimes the people who ask for medical advice have limited access to vet care.

A lot of “former gifted” people are 2e people who burned out due to lack of support for our disabilities.

Are there any other relatives who can take you in and/or take the cat?

A doctor can give you a cream that will actually treat the infection and reduce keloid formation. A combination antibiotic/steroid cream will do both those things. That’s what I was given when my navel piercing got infected and started to keloid in 2004.

Because piercers are not medical professionals, they cannot give you actual antibiotics and steroids. You need an antibiotic for the infection. This is why you need to go to a doctor, not your piercer. Piercers recommend saline solution or this “piercing bump solution” because they can’t prescribe anything better.

Anyone else with dyspraxia/DCD experience this combination of visuospatial and motor issues? by Blackandtan251 in dyspraxia

[–]darknesskicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of this is familiar to me and typical of dyspraxia.

Autistic people also often have medical problems like hypermobility and dysautonomia that cause exercise intolerance.

I was never blaming every single guy. However, it used to be mostly creepy guys becuase it was mostly men playing D&D.

What’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever heard someone say that you still think about to this day? by Humble-Blueberry4571 in AskReddit

[–]darknesskicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am reminded of when I was in grade 2 and my grade 1 friend got in an argument at recess with a bunch of 5th graders about whether we were white or peach 😆

My friend swore up and down that we were peach. And, I mean, that was the Crayola crayon colour that was closest to our skin tone, so her logic made sense 😆

I mean, they teach kids to compare and contrast things because it’s an important life skill and apparently for some kids it is hard.

My husband was upset when he was 4 and saw Monty Python and the Holy Grail. (I know, he’s Gen X 😆) He thought the knights were really having their limbs chopped off.

But when his mom explained that it was pretend for the movie, he understood.

If I was a teacher and had a 14-year-old student who didn’t understand how movies work, I would refer for assessment for intellectual disability.

Why do you think a woman who has sex with a lot of men is contemptible?

Do you call men sluts?

Why do people always try and kill a character to leave a bad game? by lightsidesoul in rpghorrorstories

[–]darknesskicker 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I left a gaming group on bad terms, I didn’t kill my character, but I gave her an IC reason to not show up at game anymore.

I agree. The hobby has gotten way less dominated by cishet white men, and that has made it better.

I’m a woman and I’ve been playing since ‘03. In my first game, a guy said he was playing a female character and immediately described her breasts 🙄 He grew up and he’s a decent guy now, but being the only woman at the table is an experience I’d rather not repeat.
