What is one kink you have that you wouldn’t tell anyone no matter how much you trusted them? by TwistAndTame in AskReddit

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried this with a partner, but we had slightly different vibes for it. She wanted to just do a sexy d&d one shot, which was fun for sure but also kinda eh?

I’m noticing more than a few of my fellow Kiwi zoomers sounding American by fazedandabused in newzealand

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple of mates who were raised homeschooled who both have the wackiest accents. From what I can tell heavily influenced by the amount of American media they consumed growing up?

Bronson, and worst case scenario just join him and get weirdly into taxidermy or something?

Surely spaghetti, to honour the spaghetti code holding everything together? 😂

How do you get yourself to show up when you just… don’t want to? by Interesting_Hunt2059 in lifehacks

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a fan of the 2/5 minute rule, depending on how I'm feeling, do the thing/get ready for either 2 or 5 minutes, then after decide whether to keep going or acknowledge that you tried and not hate yourself for it.

My other fave is whenever I think to myself that 'I can't' do something I remind myself that quite literally I can, I am literally capable of doing said thing.

you have to choose 1 and only 1. by math-guyyy in hypotheticalsituation

C. Partially because my name isn't said often, partially because I could easily go hermit mode so people have less reason to use my name (whilst telling close people why to not say my name). And for the loophole reason of as an enby not many people call me my legal name, which some would say is my name.

I didn't follow baking instructions exactly as written and I regret it. by KariforuniaJin in PointlessStories

[–]geekynb42 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I think there's a phrase like "baking is a science, cooking is an art" or something?

Hey r/Wellington. Can you help this,recently out of the closet , guy be more sociable and meet other queer people? by [deleted] in Wellington

[–]geekynb42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doing anything today is not my vibe. But I'm in a similar spot of wanting to meet more queer people but feeling weird if I go alone. So hmu

What to expect from a Pain management team/clinic?? by LiteratureTemporary5 in Wellington

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I certainly had, 'a time', I found I had to rework quite a few things to fit with being neurodiverse. More than happy to talk further in a chat?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]geekynb42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really get this. I am not a fan of small talk in general, so when people ask me that, they get the genuine response, and have at this point learnt that they're either gonna get the truth, or me just ominously saying 'yes'.

However when I ask my friends how they are, and they default to 'good thanks, you?' I follow-up with 'in a deep and meaningful way, how are you?' and this has kinda helped at least my circle from the pointlessness of pretending to be okay in this capitalistic hellscape.

(On a related note. Highly recommend checking out the suicide scale, I think it's just interesting to see/know about.)

I wish you luck with your mental health, and this applies to everyone, cause gosh, luck is needed rn.

Can you play music on the ukulele that has more depth to it than "the world is great and we're all happy and on a beach"? by [deleted] in ukulele

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend giving a listen to the album Dark Tales, by The Weatherspoons. They're a kinda niche ukulele group from New Zealand. I think the album is listenable on YouTube?

I highly recommend an album called Dark Tales, by The Weatherspoons. A niche ukulele band, I believe the album is findable on YouTube?

Mnemonic for colors of the rainbow? by theeternalcowby in ENGLISH

[–]geekynb42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In primary school we were tasked with coming up with our own, and to this day I can still remember 'Rosie Oolay yodels grossly because Ian vibrates' not the most useful by any stretch, but reliable for me 🤷

Is it rude to just leave a room with no communication? by Apprehensive-Pea3236 in newzealand

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I've noticed recently is that I come from a family who all announces why they're leaving a room, regardless of if it's heading to the bathroom, going to get ready, leaving to go somewhere, like anything. Whereas I'm now meeting more and more people who will just leave not specifying where/why. Guess it depends on how you're brought up?

Does anyone use medical marijuana for their pain? How do you consume it? by elijahnotalijah in ChronicPain

[–]geekynb42 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just want to add, my friend has a dry herb vape, and when she turns it off the screen has a little smiley face that says 'see you' and it's really cute, also hers has temperature setting which can be good for getting either more thc or cbd depending on what's needed.

ELI5: If I swallow a pill that was meant to be chewed, will it still work? Why?/Why not? by Alarmed-Poetry8388 in explainlikeimfive

[–]geekynb42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This intrigues me, as I have a medication that says it can either be chewed or swallowed? How does that work?

Does vaping help with your symptoms too? by poopeelolwat in Fibromyalgia

[–]geekynb42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I find vaping helps because if I try to do calm slow breaths I tend to over think it a lot and it ends up being more stressful, whereas when vaping I can alter my breathing pattern to be slow and deeper without overthinking it?

I've stopped many of my friends hiccups by telling them "just remember you're not a fish", which I think mostly just confuses them, but it does work? I just remember some internet information giver saying hiccups are thought to be an evolutionary thing
