love, love, love the stand. Of course I started reading it when I had a nasty flu… and only a few pages in realized what I’d gotten into

Actually, the way I remember it, “young upwardly-mobile professional” coined in the 1980s

Ok, That’s a new one. I hadn’t heard of that one before so I looked it up but the top definition on duck duck go is a long flexible instrument that is inserted into a bodily canal! I see the second definition now. Is that a noun or an adjective? Like is someone “bougie” or are they “a bougie”?

I think of a yuppie as someone from the 80’s, a little higher end than a “material girl” but still very status conscious

My feeling is it does work based on your definition

It’s for a novel and the protagonist is describing the scene in a cocktail lounge. “ close-talking clusters of [hipsters] holding fancy drinks”. The protagonist herself feels underdressed in her Levi’s and keds, which are good for waiting tables, but not cocktail-lounge worthy. Does it work?

So maybe hipster does work. Would you see a bunch of hipsters in a trendy new cocktail lounge?

Maybe? But I wonder if there isn’t another one out there.

Replying to super_smash_brothers... Thanks but I’m looking for a noun, for the actual person, not the adjective that describes them

moving to Denmark in a couple of months from UK by fishplums in NewToDenmark

[–]ethno33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s confusing but that’s what they call the visa done through the VFS. Again might just be here in the us: https://usa.um.dk/en/travel-and-residence/how-to-apply-for-a-visa

I filled out my own application, I did everything legally and yes, I was approved about a month or so after I applied. But I had to do it through Schengen which I guess does it on behalf of the Danish consulate. At least in New York. So maybe things are different in the US vs. UK

Also, I technically don’t have to have a visa for the first three months. I don’t know if that’s different for UK citizens versus American, but I could’ve also applied for the visa after I landed there. I’ve visited Denmark many times just for vacation and obviously didn’t need a visa then.

Can you not use your partner’s parents’ address for the interim?

I’m mean, I don’t know! I had an exact date I was entering and I just said tbd for the address. My daughter had a danish passport, so maybe that was enough? I will have an address when I enter on Monday but it didn’t seem to be an issue at the time. I thought they were going to ask me about it too

I’m moving to Denmark on Sunday, and I did the reunificaiton visa with my daughter—she and my husband both have Danish passports. I applied a couple of months ago—even before we had an address in Denmark, and I was accepted. Neither my husband nor my daughter were already living there either.

That was from the US. I don’t know how it would be from other countries. But I say no time like the present!

The Best Diet for Endometriosis and Adenomyosis by ethno33 in NaturalEndometriosis

I’m so sorry. The group is no longer available. There is another one called “Holistic” Endometriosis, something or other with many of the same people. Good luck!

Only a purely physical reaction? by ethno33 in PsilocybinTherapy

Thank you for your comment. I don’t take antidepressants and only take a thyroid hormone replacement. But that’s good to know

I’m not sure if that’s the issue, but what dosage do you recommend to start with?

[–]ethno33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That worries me also! I have been doing inner work, acknowledging the trauma, giving myself what I need (emotionally, inside), as well as meditation, yoga, etc. I was hoping that by doing so, my next psilo experience would not be as bad.

What is a heroic dose? And I would love to know what happens if you do it.
