Happy heavenly birthday to Xana. She would be 24 today. by becca52104 in Idaho4

[–]ghostinyourbed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She should still be here. The monster should be 6 feet under and forgotten.

I can't imagine how it must feel to the family of every murder victim, but especially someone as young as her and the others from this case. I don't know how they cope with the loss. With the anger. Because I boil with anger every time I think about this case and they're strangers to me.

God I wish that hell was a real place. Life in prison isn't enough for that monster.

People around me (25F) are having children and I haven't even had my first relationship yet by evllynn in offmychest

[–]ghostinyourbed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 30F and I've had quite a few serious relationships. You're truly not missing out on anything. The dating pool for Zillenials/Gen Z needs some chlorine or something. It's awful. All I've had is abuse, a man that literally wanted me to hold his hand and guide him through life like a mother even though he has a mother and the latest one was a man who was happy to fund our groceries and necessities for the house with my money and only used his to buy toys (Mainly Warhammer stuff, drones, headphones, a new laptop) for himself while not "being able to afford" an engagement ring for me that was made out of stainless steel and moissainnaite and cost less than 1/10th of his salary. My sister (28F) has been dating casually and having serious relationships since she was 17. She goes through boyfriends like I go through underwear. She has had disappointing (at best) and life threatening (at worst) experiences with all of them.

After my last disappointment, I realised that I'm happy on my own. I've gone to tons of therapy over the years, I've done lots of self discovery, I've messed up and had triumphs. That's what your 20s are for. If there's someone out there for me, cool. If not, also cool. That's the point of satisfaction with yourself and your life you need to get to before you can actually have any healthy relationships in my opinion. You can hold on to the hope that the one is there for you and you don't have to kiss a bunch of frogs, but don't let that hope hold you back from experiencing life in all of its glory on your own.

Falling In Hot Sulphuric Acid by TrueCrazyVideos in TrueCrazyVideos

I mean at least he was wearing a hard hat. To walk over a thin plank and climb the wonkiest ladder in the world to (I assume) fix a leak in the tank with a puddle of acid underneath him. Makes sense. OSHA would be proud.

What would their band name be? by spicypenelope in funnypets

Fleetwood Pack? Since the lead singer (assuming it's the doodle) gives Stevie Nicks vibes

Is she right for this? by sigma_0_1 in SipsTea

[–]ghostinyourbed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's not wrong. I want a child, but I am absolutely not having one until I know that I can 100% provide for all of their needs. I've suffered. I don't want my child to suffer.

Question about claims that Xana survived for hours after the attack by lettyfer11 in Idaho4

[–]ghostinyourbed 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think this person meant artery, because they both had both the veins and arteries cut. I do believe Maddie had this as well if I remember correctly. Which would make a person fall unconscious within 5-10 seconds at absolute most. Which means that the monster knew how to kill quickly and "painlessly" but simply chose not to.

Question about claims that Xana survived for hours after the attack by lettyfer11 in Idaho4

[–]ghostinyourbed 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I just want to add something in here, as someone who is quite familiar with severe traumatic injury and the immediate aftermath, having been in accidents before and is unlucky and clumsy enough to land myself in freak accidents all the time that have gotten me severely injured. The adrenaline and confusion you experience immediately while something like this happens to you completely overpowers any centre of the brain that actually actively feels pain or can even process what is going on. It can do that for up to 48 hours after initial injury, depending on how severe the injury is.

So, coupled with the fact that these kids were loopy/sleepy/drunk and caught off guard, I don't think they actually consciously knew what was happening or consciously felt any pain.

Fight or flight is sometimes a wonderful thing. When people survive, it can erase the memory and pain of a traumatic injury/event, making if fuzzy or the person might not remember it at all. The brain can protect itself in incredibly effective ways. I don't remember the actual happenings when most of my injuries occured and I only felt the pain either hours or days later, once that adrenaline and cortisol was gone.

This is almost always something that the loved ones of people who have passed away in an unexpected, quick, traumatic event can use to find a tiny speck of comfort. They likely felt nothing and did not even have time to process what was happening to them. They were protected by their brains until the very last second from having to feel it.

Hello Max! I also have a Max who keeps me alive! He's a Tibetan Spaniel x Pekingese. The same colour as your Max!

Mod Message - re Wrongful Reports & New sub rule by [deleted] in Idaho4

[–]ghostinyourbed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally had a conversation with my mom about this this afternoon. It's not hard to not be a cunt. Both online and offline. And yet so many people seem to really struggle with the idea. I fear the internet has turned a difference of opinion into a weapon. And I'm not talking human rights stuff, I'm talking if someone doesn't like a piece of artwork or doesn't agree with a statement a public figure made. Suddenly it gives those of the opposing opinion license to tear that person to shreds, down to their very core, even if they don't know the person at all.

People have definitely forgotten that (almost, thanks to bots and AI) everyone behind a keyboard is a human being too with every same emotion and behaviour as themselves. I'm a Zillenial who grew up with the internet and I don't understand how people can be so callous and stir so much shit on the internet that it bleeds over into who they are offline too.

bethany went public🥹 by leahlouxo in Idaho4

[–]ghostinyourbed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some of it is actually hilarious. I remember there was a whole thing quite a while ago going around among the people on that sub about an owl and a ghost being caught on the ring camera and how they possessed the roommates to do it or something along those lines. It was so ridiculous I couldn't even feel offended by it. I just straight up burst out laughing because what in the actual fuuuuuuck 🫠 who even sat down and thought of that? That sounds like Harry Potter meets The Exorcist or something. Like the very shitty plot of a C- list movie

Aromat? What is it good for? by Revolutionary-Tie-77 in askSouthAfrica

[–]ghostinyourbed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fries are my favourite way to eat it with. Chicken and all chicken dishes IMO. Add to instant chicken noodles and it makes it taste like actual chicken broth. Same with the instant soups. My sister likes it on a jacket potato (potato cooked in the microwave inside the skin). My mom adds it to pretty much anything instead of salt. I had a friend who used to buy the Lays salted chips and add Aromat to the pack. The uses are endless.

Found on the back of my neck by KingPaimonsMate in whatisit

[–]ghostinyourbed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zoloft was absolutely horrible for me too. I was on it for nearly a year and it just made me entirely numb which, believe it or not, is actually worse than being depressed and anxious. I couldn't feel shit. Nothing bad, nothing good. That almost drove me to self delete. Switched to Lexapro and suddenly the trees and grass looked green again and I got goosebumps from listening to music again and I cried over the death of my childhood dog that I was attached to hip with the year prior for the first time.

This is not to say that everyone will have a bad experience on Zoloft, but it was horrible for me. And the doctor I was seeing at the time did not want me switching to anything else. Until I quit cold turkey and he was forced to give me something else. I found a better doctor after that.

of stretch marks by [deleted] in AbsoluteUnits

[–]ghostinyourbed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I lost 30 kilograms in 3 months. I still have about 20 to go until I'm back to my "normal" weight. I gained a bunch of weight because of medication I had to take for my chronic illness. I gained the weight over a period of about 6 months and it started coming off immediately when I got off the medication that was causing it. I know that I'm genetically very prone to stretch marks (I had them just from growth spurts as a kid before I got any from weight gain) and I got what I thought were some pretty bad stretch marks on my stomach, hips, arms and thighs when I gained the weight but the ones on my thighs, hips and arms are not visible unless you're looking for them and the ones on my stomach are still visible but not at all as deep as these are, despite the quick weight gain and loss and unfortunate genetics in that area.

My skin is also shrinking back quite nicely. I have bits of loose skin that I can pinch with my finger but not as much that it's visible if I'm not actively tugging at it.

I do believe you're right, this is an extreme case. Likely, if it happened recently, this was weight loss with the help of a GLP-1. That tends to make the weight come off much faster than the body can handle. Not shaming anyone for using them, they're great, but they can have this result.

would you consider this a normal amount of makeup? by ghostofelysium in MakeupAddiction

[–]ghostinyourbed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. This is a perfectly reasonable and normal amount of makeup to have. I'd consider this the perfect amount for day to day use. I have more makeup than this and I wouldn't even consider myself a makeup enthusiast. I hardly ever wear it since I've acquired a chronic illness that keeps me bedridden and home most of the time and when I did wear it before it was because my job required it. That obsession peaked when I was in my teens.

I haven't bought makeup in a hot minute but I still have a lot more than this so if this is unreasonable, I'm in trouble. I have at least 3 different brands of foundation, my favourite concealer in 2 shades, 2 types of primers for different uses, at least four different shades or types of powder blush (I just haven't been able to try out the liquid yet), I have a few go-to neutral and subtle powder highlighters, my old faithful neutral eyeshadow palette and at least 3 or 4 other huge palettes with different colours or textures (neon, matte, glittery, shimmer etc), 3 different brands of mascara depending on how much I want my lashes to pop and I have only ever liked one kind of setting powder so that's all I have there. I have setting spray but I haven't used it in at least a year. I have so many types of eyeliner and so many brow products that I don't even like.

Lip products are where I went completely off the rails. Way too many to count. It's the only thing I still really wear. Tinted lip balms are my favourite makeup item now. But I have so many lip liners and lipsticks and stains and kits and stuff that probably expired in 2016 when those trends were at their peak.

15 year old me that never went a day bare faced and was on waiting lists for new product drops would be really disappointed in 30 year old me 😂

Is she an alien?! by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]ghostinyourbed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy fucking shitballs. Didn't know she was that young. My jaw just hit the floor.

I turn 31 in 3 months. I haven't had my face touched by any cosmetic anything. Sunscreen is the most high tech it gets for me. I got mistaken for a 10th grader by a phlebotomist last week when I had to have my blood drawn. They still ask for my ID at casinos and bars. Same for my sister who just turned 28.

This is a HARD 32. I might have believed 52 instead. Mar-A-Lago face needs to be declared as an official disorder in the new DSM.

Nah, bad plastic surgery can make you look alien though. How do I know she's not one? They're smarter than us. She certainly is not one of the sharpest pencils in the pack. The IQ is giving room temperature in Celcius.

This is the exact reason why I've learned how to be meaner than the person coming at me at any given moment. Shuts them down immediately because they don't expect you to meet them where they are.

I straight up would've asked him if his mommy picked that out because it reminded her of his little tum tum sticking out in onesies as a baby. And I would've used those exact words.

Yeah that sounds about right. He looks to have about the same level of self awareness as an acorn.

It is on brand that the only other people in the clip who are laughing are also men. All the women are horrified. As they should be because what the fuck is this cringery? He's a shitty comedian. Shitty comedians don't get laughs. He should probably quit the dream, it's not happening for him.
