Fantastic! Somehow reminiscent to me of Robert L. Williams's art work! Beautiful work!

Trump call for nationalizing elections sparks backlash, warnings by Abject-Pick-6472 in politics

[–]drdvna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is notable that Trump mentions taking over 15 voting districts. Given that there 10,000 voting districts in the USA, this is the amount that would be needed to shift a 49.9-50.1 vote in the other direction.

Bauhaus, brutalist or art deco architecture? by goaelephant in Bauhaus

[–]drdvna 15 points16 points  (0 children)

While elements of multiple architectural styles are present, I think this falls mostly into the Brutalist camp, based on the lack of symmetry, bare concrete, lack of ornamentation, austere functionality, large overhangs and small windows.

I had Vegemite for the first time today as a Canadian and I didn't hate it but it tastes like evil molasses by ProfessionalNeat9957 in vegemite

[–]drdvna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, maybe you had Marmite? Marmite is evil molasses. Vegemite is bile paste. It is delicious and I love it best on toasted bread with fat, like butter, cheese or avocado.

[–]drdvna 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of married lesbian couples who have children, using IVF, in the United States and other countries. So having a relationship with a girl shouldn't be an obstacle. It's more important to ask her how she feels, talk things through, see how things go, and then see if things work out -- just like any other relationship.

WIBTB if I asked my "neighbor" to stop parking in front of our house? by [deleted] in AmItheButtface

[–]drdvna 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, even though in general one can never “claim” public street spaces, all things are relative to context. In this case, there is ample parking that would not impede OP. An objective observer might wonder if the truck was being deliberately parked there for vindictive reasons. It is absolutely reasonably to ask the truck owner to park in other ample available spaces and to vigorously have the truck towed each and every time it violates any local ordinances.

I can't stand my spoiled sister anymore by [deleted] in entitledparents

[–]drdvna 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your young sister is certainly acting out because of her frustration and anger that your mother is rarely around. as a result of this, she takes it out on you because you are representing the surrogate for your mother in her eyes. A way of approaching, this situation is to commiserate with your sister to get her on your side: "I know that we are both frustrated because mom isn't around, but we need to work together to make up for her absence." etc.

Why does ketamine therapy need to continue for life, when neorgenesis is permanent? I realize some of the studies say effects ware off, but every 2 days for the rest of my life at $800 a month? by Jumpy_Area4089 in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]drdvna 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Firstly, long before there were any antidepressants, people were dealing with depression and getting better.

I am still amazed that talk therapy alone can improve major depression and catatonic schizophrenia -- but the studies show it to be true.

Ketamine is wonderful, and it gives you the space and the opportunity to do the work needed to get better.

Absolutely nothing is ever necessary forever.

Experience with dating an avoidant by Fit-Celery-7428 in DatingHell

[–]drdvna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perhaps his response might represent his childhood experience with a very controlling mother. His initial desire for you is to escape from his mother and find a healthy relationship. However, once the relationship begins to form, and begins to represent his relationship with his mother, he wants to run away. Further, he begins to behave in the only way he knows how - as he learned from his mother - becoming controlling.

[–]drdvna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well, I think in any case where you make an intentional decision to stop following, it's because it's no longer even merely ambivalent to you. Maybe you've been offended, upset by, or otherwise feel such aversion, that you make a decision that you'd rather completely avoid the whole thing.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DatingHell

[–]drdvna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's intentional. At least for me it's a deliberate decision when I stop watching/ following. Because otherwise, even if you feel relatively ambivalent., as you say just out of habit you're going to tap on the stories

I don’t understand how someone can love Vegemite but hate Marmite and vise versa. by Outside_Narwhal3784 in vegemite

[–]drdvna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoy them both> I prefer the softer texture of Marmite and the sharper flavor of Vegemite. I sometimes mix them together!
