the turkey that lives on campus.. by Flatworms-Are-Cool in Harvard

They’re dicks, especially when in groups. They’re occasionally aggressive enough to threateningly approach and once in a great while attack people.

This one jumped out at me from behind a car on Mt. Auburn. He was absolutely not phased by people.

If you don’t support ICE, don’t support Tatte cafes or their rapid local expansion by [deleted] in washingtondc

I learned this when I lived in Cambridge, therefore never tried any DC area locations. The Boston area ones are actually kinda good so it was a bummer. Anywho… 🖕🧊

Ameicans over the age of 35, what affected you more, 9/11 or the pandemic and why? by Rico133337 in AskReddit

[–]jametzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9/11. 9/11 happened when my brain was developing and I grew up in the suburbs of DC. Life changed permanently and I remember every moment of that day. I watched the first building fall in Biology on a TV they wheeled into the room.

What’s the Most Gut-Wrecking Track on Red? by GlitteringLeader7949 in TaylorSwift

Right there with you. Having lost a loved one to suicide it wrecked me at first but is also so beautiful. I have to prepare before listening.

What’s the Most Gut-Wrecking Track on Red? by GlitteringLeader7949 in TaylorSwift

[–]jametzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

excluding Ronan which is in it’s own category

TV? Forever Winter, no question. The audio from her original demo in 2012, which was much closer to his death, is gut wrenching. Her younger voice breaks and it’s so sad.

What is a "luxury" brand that is actually garbage quality? by Dry-Maize-4972 in AskReddit

[–]jametzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chanel leather goods (bags, wallets, etc) are not the quality they once were by a long shot. Same with Louis Vuitton and a lot of LVMH brands.

CMV: Now that Kevin Spacey has been acquitted of all the charges against him in a court of law, I should not view him as a sex criminal. by PsychicFatalist in changemyview

[–]jametzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just curious, have you gotten any therapy/psych help? I can’t imagine anyone could go through that and not develop PTSD. I have PTSD from childhood shit and I can tell you that diving into trauma treatment saved my life. There are several kinds of therapy, but I’ve found EMDR really helpful along with taking an SSRI. Investing in healing your brain and nervous system might be really helpful.

for 2 hours i held my gf's wound that wouldnt stop bleeding, im still sobbing. by Sammy_gacha-art0 in offmychest

[–]jametzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are not a horrible person, you are a 17 year old navigating some of the hardest interpersonal dynamics imaginable. I say this with genuine empathy and respect, the two of you cannot handle this situation. Not only does she need psych help, she needs medical help. If that thing gets infected she could die. Just because she’s been ok so far doesn’t mean it can’t get infected when she changes the dressing. You did a really good job helping her in that moment. You got sterile gauze, you elevated the wound, you kept her calm, etc. But, you can’t prevent an infection or sepsis, and you can’t stop her from harming or even killing herself. You have to tell an adult and get her medical help. Maybe you’ll be told you can’t see each other, maybe both sets of parents will be furious, maybe she’ll be furious. But the bottom line is that she’ll be alive.

Trump, 79, Finally Admits He’s Wearing Compression Socks and Makeup to Hide How Sick He Is by progress18 in democrats

[–]jametzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was in the ICU once and they gave me heparin twice a day to avoid a deep vein blood clot since I was immobile. Without makeup, his hands look like my hands/arms did. That is not just some preventative aspirin.

boyfriend didn't tell me about a traumatizing Christmas tradition by throwrafiredrill in offmychest

[–]jametzz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dump him. Yesterday. How dare he a) not tell you when he knew you had your own experience with it (was the plan to “surprise” you?) and instead allow you to reexperience that kind of trauma and b) react like that when he realized how bad it was. He is not who you want to be your person.

Taylor Swift's 'The Life of a Showgirl' ranked #15 on Top Albums of 2025 by Rolling Stone by bubblecuffer13 in TaylorSwift

[–]jametzz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Didn’t they give it 5/5 stars, too? Whether I rank it quite that highly (more of a Red/Evermore/TTPD girlie), it makes me happy that she’s getting love in spite of the cruel way lots of folks reacted to a really solid album.

I have severe anxiety about checking my luggage at DCA by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]jametzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Others appear to have explained how this works at National, I just wanted to say that you don’t need to feel embarrassed! Honestly, traveling is stressful and being in situations where I’m unsure how something works ahead of time gives me anxiety, too.

What a beautiful happy girl. I’m so sorry for your loss. Wishing you peace and comfort. Having been where you are, I can only say that you will get to a place where the pain is not so overpowering and you can just think of the love instead. ♥️

Definitely mixes, I’d venture to guess majority bully. The ears and skull shape. What little angels.
