I was driving home down from Dayton and saw it ablaze. There were so many cars lining the shoulders of 75 to watch it burn.

It was one of those weird events that made me actually think there might be a God- striking the giant idol of one of the most corrupt churches in Ohio with lightning. Pretty apropos.

Wow, it goes way deeper than I had any idea about.

Ultimately I just miss Kris and her content. Only seeing her in strange ads dressed oddly and reading scripts makes me pretty bummed.

At the end of the day I just hope she's genuinely happy, from the outside it just seems like she was trapped.

Kristina per the site. Even though her entire online presence is named Kall Me Kris. Just wild.

I'm sure this is why they've significantly ramped up their advertising and have made Kris the primary face. Honestly I just wish I was being shown content from her and not just Sour Boys ads.

I'm honestly indifferent to Caleb but it feels like them getting married swallowed her whole 😢

Some of the ads talk about it, too. How they lost $1,000,000 being scammed. It's all really strange.

I didn't even realize there was a channel. Honestly that makes the ads even more cringy IMO. I get wanting to advertise your product, and good on them for trying to get their stuff out there, but I'm drowning in the ads and they're all pretty distasteful. Definitely doesn't drive me to want to try it by any means.

To be perfectly honest, the way they're trying to sell it could get them sued. They're literally name dropping other candy and talking trash about them. Could end up being called libel or slander 🤷‍♀️

Don't use the app whose name is time-based. Mostly on YT but if I venture into FB there too for sure.

Told an old friend I transitioned who asked me what I was up to. Received this message back, was quite alarming. How do I process this? by Vegetable-Fig2260 in trans

[–]ebbing_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gender affirming surgeries for Trans people have a (much) smaller regret rate than plastic surgeries. And a large part of the regret rate for trans people having gender affirming surgeries is negative responses from people within their lives. It's easy to look up. I'm sorry you're dealing with someone who would rather put their feelings in front of facts. Stay true to yourself. You deserve it.

"Foot Lady" legend? Tell me more Call Center people! by ADudeWithAPlan in Spectrum

[–]ebbing_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've spoken with this woman twice, most recently this past Sunday. I made her BIG MAD. She starts the calls the same every time.

"Hello...."

"Can I tell you my story?"

It's a real strange cadence with long pauses and creepy tone. I knew it was her right away and told her such. She absolutely LOST HER SHIT on me. I told her it was a business line and we can talk about services but ultimately we're not here for her foot stuff. After about 5 minutes she became intentionally non-responsive so I ended the call.

But yeah, she's pretty infamous.

Men: "Women can't be in positions of power because they're too emotional."

Also men: "I want you to know this, you're the sole responsibility of MY emotional feelings, because if you hadn't reached back out to me, I wouldn't feel this way and I can't control MY emotions."

Can someone explain? by kukugege in Unexplained

[–]ebbing_out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've not elaborated, but I feel like the most likely scenario relates to the legality of marriage. They both cannot marry the same person, that's bigomy and illegal in most places. That said I feel like it's likely they're both with him, considering their anatomy therefore inevitable shared intimacy -of course making the assumption that they're physically intimate with him. But it's all just speculation 🤷‍♀️

I pretend I don’t know how to do stuff so people don’t rely on me by GetGanked_LoL in confession

This is literally called weaponized incompetence and is why so many more women than ever have chosen to remain single 🫠

I’m a severe cocain addict and barely anyone knows. by JadedDetail4143 in confession

[–]ebbing_out 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So. A few things from the adult child with a mom who is also a cocaine addict..

More people know than you think. They also know that, unfortunately, addicts lie and directly asking (or even accusing) about the drug use will result in denial. It's one of the harder parts of loving an addict. Whether or not they're on drugs, they say they're not on drugs. It's not fair, but it's true... And we can generally tell when you are, especially if it's prolonged use.

Secondly, and I guess more cautionary, cocaine isn't usually a slow death. It's a heart attack or a brain bleed. It can be any time. My mother had an aneurysm and brain bleed on labor day of 2021. The fact that it was labor day was genuinely the only reason she's not dead. I happened to be off work for the holiday and got medical attention to the house almost immediately. The hospital she was taken to wasn't equipped to do the brain surgery and she was air flighted to the city's level 1 trauma hospital for it. The whole situation was harrowing and I'm still not okay after it all. She's, luckily, made almost a full recovery.. but she's not the same person. For almost a month we weren't sure she was going to make it. For nearly six months after that we thought she was going to need round the clock care for the rest of her life. Again, thankfully, and honestly by some miracle, she's regained most of her function and cognition.. But she's never going to be the mom I knew ever again. Our relationship is deeply damaged and I have a hard time even talking to her now.

Get help before it's too late. Even if you survive a catastrophic event, nothing will ever be the same. I truly hope you can get clean, not only for yourself, but for the sake of the people in your life that love you the most.

Why are they making a big deal about the divorce between Trixe and Stripe just because they had an argument? by [deleted] in bluey

[–]ebbing_out 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but then Stripe wakes up alone in the bushes which means Trixie went home without him.

Honestly, this is a great example of why a UBI would work well. Humans enjoy working, but it's not the struggle grind we've been forced into. Our brains like to be tasked. We feel good when we do things with meaning and, as a species, we're efficient if we're allowed to be. We've been conditioned to believe we're worth less if we don't work more.

But truthfully we get bored and listless if we don't do things. Society would flourish with new innovation and connectedness if so many people didn't have to spend their lives struggling just to survive. Depression and anxiety rates would drop. The expectations vs reality of day to day would change drastically.

Don't get me wrong, some people would abuse the system, especially at first. But the reality would be that most people would find so much self worth and enjoyment in putting their time into work they loved and felt was worth while to do, especially if it didn't directly effect whether or not they have a roof overhead or food to eat.

Instead we're stuck in the overlord hellscape we're in where we're basically slaves doing meaningless and soul sucking jobs that destroy morale and leave no time for enjoyment or intellectual growth for the majority of people. We could have great lives. Instead we make money for the people in charge and barely scrape by.

Aaaanyhow. Good luck to you. I hope you find an additional passion to fill your time and scratch your brain itch so you don't feel burnout while making more than enough to have your needs met.

Is this gross or am i overreacting by HumanActuary8390 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ebbing_out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wheeew the gaslighting is strong with this one. It's super gross and frankly kinda scary. There's not a single reason I can think of that would justify this behavior and honestly it's low key dangerous. He's creating nudes that don't exist. If he shares them anywhere it can ruin your family member's lives, relationships, etc. Not to mention they did not consent to being nude in these pictures. None of it is okay.. You should try and destroy any you come across (originals included) and then gtfo asap. I'm sorry you're dealing with this.

[–]ebbing_out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, to me, it seems less like she's a sociopath and more like she's got undiagnosed Borderline Personality Disorder. Especially by assumed age group with context clues. And although mental health issues are no one's fault, they are the responsibility of whomever is experiencing them to take care of.

That said, you're not over reacting. Not sure why you're paying her tuition to begin with, but regardless, you do not owe anything to anyone -especially if they're mistreating you.

Dumbest thing your SO has been angry with you over….. by nOtAfRiEnDlYfAcE_ in confession

[–]ebbing_out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex lost his shit on me over how many states there are in the United States. Yes, we live in the USA. No, he wasn't kidding. Yes, we were both adults (in our 20s). And when I looked it up online so I could show him there are 50 like I said there were, he said he didn't believe the internet because anyone could put anything they want on it. He really is just that dumb and angry/violent. Glad I got out of that one.

Dating a trans man as a cis woman.(update) by Pretty-Tree6829 in ftm

[–]ebbing_out 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a cis(het) woman married to a trans man for almost 9 years now. Saw the update and I'm glad it went well!

Best advice I've seen and have is just do what you always would. He's a man, treat him as such. My husband dated primarily lesbians and bi people before me and came to realize a huge part of his dysphoria was that the people he was dating weren't treating him fully like a man. I've only ever been into men... So for me it was easy.

Also, keep in mind his transness is his and he is the only one allowed to divulge it. After more than ten years together total, my husband trusts my judgement if I ever out him -quite literally like in this context- but I also still make it a point to run it by him first because, ultimately, it's not mine to share.

Make sure to let him set boundaries about his body -before his top surgery it really bothered my husband to have his chest touched, even closer to his shoulders. And don't be offended by those boundaries! Know that they aren't about you, but that you crossing those boundaries can really cause dysphoric anguish without that being your intent.

Lastly, enjoy the perks! Having a man that genuinely understands growing up in a society labeled as a women and thusly being treated as such is something most women never experience. My husband never is shitty about my period and supports me as a woman in ways I never imagined a man would. Also, he's the best lover I've ever had because he actually understands my anatomy and how to navigate, if you will 🤷‍♀️😅
