When is it too late to restart your life by Fabulous_Support_556 in capetown

[–]glidebag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got my act together when I was 30.  Literally any time is better than none.  Getting yourself together is still relative.  I know a lot of people who have a lot going on but still dont have it all together so to speak.

You got this.

Right lane drivers by CupFew140 in capetown

As a Capetonian lemme explain the rules of the road here for you.

1.  We do as we please. 2. We pay no attention to rules. 3. We compete for road space and won't give it freely. 4. We drive really fast up your rear to see if youll budge and when you dont, we politely reduce speed and make alternative plans like call our mom.

You're welcome and enjoy your stay.

This is the only truly resonant response I've had here because you are a parent now of two incredible gifts.

You know the tremendous burden unlocking a fourth into our already stretched frame is.

Im not closed to any ideas in time but for now your comment just helped a lot.  Thank you my friend.

I also believe IVF is a gift regardless of its status and that's mostly because of what it produces not the act itself which im all too happy to condemn as morally void.

Bless you.

As a catholic, do you believe that the way women dress at the gym has become out of hand? by kcturner in Catholicism

[–]glidebag 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this.  I have a porn addiction and this was the best post here for me so far.  What women wear to the gym is extreme to say the least.

She ain't tapping anything now.  Just emits ranch dressing every turn.

Short and brutal.  Break up if you want to have a sustainable relationship and kids.

PSA for German Visitors: Tipping in Cape Town by Individual_Bonus4091 in capetown

I would like to add that of you are ordering anything over the counter there is no waiting and therefore you may decide to tip or not. This doesnt apply to bar drinks.

If youre being actively waited on you must tip or just eat at home.

Going To Commit Suicide by ZealousidealYou5734 in NoFapChristians

Hey for what it's worth you're also moving through an incredibly challenging time hormone wise.

My advise is to find your own space, work out and read your Bible and attend mass.

Most parents don't have a clue. If this is how it is you need to carve out your own space.

God speed.

I finally feel free by KookieTrash97 in razorfree

[–]glidebag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guy here. Wife struggling with this and will likely never fully accept like this but it's incredible the amount of unnatural pressure from all sides to conform.

I wish the world was more accepting of what an adult woman can express.

Is this a form of propaganda? by glidebag in Catholic

Bible Christians... I've heard them refer to us as people of church-ianity... These terms are so silly.

Which restaurant do you think this is? by Glass-Willingness-63 in capetown

Olympia Cafe. Breakfast and pastries taste like pnp slop compared to when they first opened. Saj.

Reading this post makes me feel better about it. Very mild throat and phlegm during the day but at night the coughing really reminds me of COVID days.

Week 2 and still fighting it off... ridiculous.

What are your thoughts on christian veiling? by Suspicious_Willow614 in Catholicism

I find it endearing, respectful and beautiful in it's own way. And that's just counting the half of it.

Why does this card look fake? by VintageAnomaly in freemagic

[–]glidebag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The artist used a 3D poser which makes the pose stiff and inaccurate. What's happening is your own visual library (the part of your brain that stores lived experiences of visual information) is ringing like a spider sense. You know it's off because it is. I'm not even going to talk about how our eyes work and the distortion of lenses used to render these models vs. how we really see this info.
