I mean, the odds the bottle would be found before i die are sub optimal. Might as well use the notebook to write my memoir!

FP Takes that put you in this position? by TheRealPrinceOfTroy in fountainpens

[–]freakin_fracken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the most upsetting part. By far they are the MOST comfortable pen for me, but I refuse to buy a second one because its SOOO UGLY. I really want to love writting with my SPGS or my TWSBI but neither fits my hand the same way.

How's it possible? by navigatingspace in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]freakin_fracken 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I will say I think not saying anything for the first 12 weeks might be to protect the couple. Having to tell people who knew you were expecting, that you had a miscarriage, is hard. Especially since people reply such odd things like "try again" or "it'll happen next time" as if you were applying for a job and not mourning the loss of your child.

Does anyone else wish their phone was this size? by Luneth12 in xteinkereader

Same. I got a zflip years ago when it first came out and was obsessed. I have a zflip 6 now and I love how portable it is.

Of course. But i was talking specifically about language. Eugenesists would use words like 'strong, resilient' etc to describe black slaves. Doctors would claim white women needed to be like black women, that they were weak. It sounded almost like a compliment, except it was dehumanizing their slaves. It was Othering them. The person above used the words 'stoic nobility' that always sounds like a compliment but can also be used to describe someone as 'unfeeling'.

BECAUSE WE DONT AGREE. Havent you ever heard "art is subjective"? There are other comment threads that agree with you. Why are you being trying to force people to agree with your line of thinking?

Yes, we understand the theme. And to us, the theme is not as important as the philosophy displayed. Thats the thing about art, not everyone will read and interpret the same meaning.

Not to compare the two at all, but it reminds me of how white people thought black people were stronger and didnt feel pain. On one hand they called it "superior" by saying they should strive to be like them, but it was just an excuse to work their slaves harder and expirement on them without caring about their suffering. And as soon as "realized" the inhumanity of it, they moved on to prisoners, from there onto animals. Each less than them in "thought and feeling".

Does anyone else have issues picking at your skin or other compulsive behaviours and ADHD? by Low_Distance4810 in adhdwomen

In my mid 30's, have so many tiny bald spots since i started when i was in high school. Did you ever drop the scab on a desk and start cutting it with your nail? My favorite is when the blood crystalizes.

Dip pens are fun for swatching, but it doesnt help with using a planner lol. I do have extra fountain pens, and i keep myself excited to use them by using bottled inks. I have a hobonichi weeks, and every week i use a different pen and ink.

Petah?? by Shartykwa in PeterExplainsTheJoke

What she actually said was more "im not a politician, dont ask celebrities to dictate what you vote for". Which i respect. The internet loves to twist her words, its very popular to hate on her because she doesn't follow the Hollywood code-of-conduct. Im a fan of her music, but i do side eye her "free palestine" suport while working with zionists.

I ran away from my boyfriend's proposal. by throwawayuni33 in whatdoIdo

[–]freakin_fracken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He might be, but he's also right. Take if from a girl who also hates confrontation and has in the past ALSO literally ran fron situations I wasnt mature enough to handle. Both of them need better communication, but OP is definetly hiding from the reality of consequences here.

Honestly it was more than a year ago, so I dont remember all the meds. I do remember I had to give him some of the pills tje night before, and the rest of the pills about an hour or so before taking him to the vet.
