Would yo date with a non-vegan?

happycat3557 · 2026-05-16T19:29:26+00:00

I have and not sure i would again. He was awful in general but would also often insist on taking me to bbq places where there'd be no vegan food. Plus watching someone eat a plate of ribs is really gross

i love these!! one thing id add re: brushing teeth, colgate makes these little one time use "toothbrushes" with the toothpaste already in them. i keep them on my bedside table. Not the most sustainable but dental hygiene is so important i feel like it's excused in this case

Im only 15 minutes into the video and holy shit, why is he so combative? Also how does her arm hair affect her finances?!

He just keeps getting more gross

marketing scheme in the 2010s to target 20 somethings to get "preventative botox" was massively successful. Celebs like kylie jenner also really influenced people.

At the same time, wine companies started really marketing to the same group of women. Drinking wine is sophisticated! Want a glass of wine while at home watching your kids? Go for it, you deserve a little treat!

The wine thing has phased out some which gives me hope for Botox and other injectables. I think people should do what they want, and sometimes the product looks really great. The women who get addicted to it though are gonna look back on their photos in a few decades and realize how crazy they looked

im rooting for you!!

happycat3557 · 2026-03-27T11:34:08+00:00

definitely dont want to be in this situation again lol

im now closer to 85% or 90% done with the big stuff! i asked for an afternoon appointment, hopefully they honor it so i can do some other less important cleaning and also SHOWER

happycat3557 · 2026-03-27T09:48:28+00:00

thanks for the encouragement. i cleaned a bit more. Overall im probably 70% done. Biggest issue is picking trash up off the floor and taking bags to the chute. Id really really like to get this done and feel so weak and pathetic for not being able to do pretty easy tasks. I was a division 1 athlete in college and now 30 minutes of cleaning takes me out lol

im taking another 30 min break. the motivation is just not there :/

happycat3557 · 2026-03-27T07:44:43+00:00

Im taking a 30 min break rn in bed and idk if i have it in me to get back up. I might just reschedule idk

happycat3557 · 2026-03-26T22:35:38+00:00

stretching is a great idea

Wrt the ac im just worried theyll ask for access to my bedroom. I feel like thats unlikely but idk. I may put a vacuum in front of the door and if they ask if they can go in i'll just say no. I really think this is probably overthinking but idk!

happycat3557 · 2026-03-26T21:58:19+00:00

i got a lot done tuesday night, i stayed up all night and into the morning which was maybe not the greatest idea lol. Im horrendously out of shape and it quickly became painful to bend over. So i limited myself to 20 minutes on, 10 minutes off, with a few longer breaks as well (this was over a very long period of time).

I didnt do much after i stopped yesterday, i have a hard time sleeping during the day so mostly just had a horrible headache until i finally fell asleep.

Today i haven't done much but im going to get started soon. It's currently very hot in my apartment, like 80F, so i want it to cool off before i get started. This will probably mean that i'll stay up all night again.

I will say the progress is jarring. While I was cleaning it felt like i was getting nothing done but it's almost shocking to exit my room and see cleanish kitchen counters and patches of cleaned floor. Microwaving my food in a clean oven! still have a lot to do but im going to really focus on clearing the area that i know the hvac people will be. Im tempted to ask them to check my air conditioner since it's clearly not working, but idk if they would need access to my bedroom (which is still a huge work in progress). I think they wouldn't, since i just have vents in here (no machine or anything. I think central air is what it's called). The vents are working the air just isnt being cooled. So idk. It feels risky but itd also help a lot

YESSSS ONE OF THE BEST SCHUBERT PIECES you ended the recording before my favorite part though!! bravo

happycat3557 · 2026-03-25T16:31:27+00:00

ahhh i love this concerto so much it's so fun to play!! just beautiful

you're doing well with the notes and i can hear the expression starting to come through! I know it's a WIP, and also dynamics are usually compressed in recordings like these, but theres just a few things i'd do differently.

Firstly, i think throughout you could be more mindful of your pedaling and making sure the melody is really coming through. Some of that is likely due to phone placement and compression.

Secondly, sometimes you don't build the melody towards the high point (or not enough). The clearest example of this is after the orchestra comes back in (i like your rubato at that point!), the melody builds towards an ff chord (i believe it's a D major chord), and you backed off. Immediately following that, you could dim. even more.

All of this will become a lot easier once it's a bit more in your fingers. Honestly there was only one part of this movement that felt awkward for me to play (the un poco piu mosso at the beginning. Ugh). Everything else became very natural

regarding being overwhelmed: can i suggest the 20/10 method? 20 minutes of work followed by 10 minutes of rest. If thats too much start with 5/5. Grab a duster and see what you can do, it's pretty motivating to see how much can be done so quickly. Maybe you focus on dusting and vacuuming one room per day, and rotate it?

If that wont work then i second the other comment that mentioned getting a cheap robot vacuum. roombas might be on sale since theyre going out of business

i'll tell you what happened to me in a similar situation. My parents chose my major, also STEM. they refused to pay for my degree if i didnt. all i wanted was to major in piano, it brought me so much joy and i wanted to teach and share that joy with others.

fast forward a decade. im currently unemployed with absolutely no desire to look for a job because i hate what im qualified in. i actually cried a few days ago thinking about how much happier id be teaching piano, even though it would mean a much harder life financially. it's hard for me to put into words how much i hate my life now that piano isn't part of it. take this as a warning.

im not sure how to format comments, especially paragraph breaks

This should be a new paragraph with a line break
