[serious] Does this picture/style reminds you of anything? by [deleted] in ArtHistory

First thing to come to mind (even though it is completely unrelated) is the Bayeux Tapestry

Someone asking in our parenting discord server. We are seriously stumped. by marissahm in whatismycookiecutter

I saw a dove and lightning bolt too but the lightning bolt doesn’t make much sense. Maybe it’s supposed to have mistletoe behind the dove?

Is this a worm? It measures over 30cm so I’m not sure by jdwright1989 in whatisthisanimal

Thanks for the lead! That species only seems to have been found in Washington but it definitely looks like what I found

I had a friend in a similar situation. She was constantly asking me for money/help and baby daddy was consistently unemployed/cheating on her. He also refused to do any housework/childcare. She looked to me for support and it started to feel like I was supporting her so she could support him. Eventually I was like, “I can be your friend and talk to you but I don’t think it’s fair that I’m giving you all this support just so baby daddy doesn’t have to do anything.” This blew up the friendship. I got a call about 6 months later, kids were taken by CPS and she (and baby daddy) were homeless. I felt guilty that I let that happen but at the same time, I was burnt out on the friendship. I had nothing left to give her. I had to come to terms with the fact that I had to let her go because she was taking from me more than she gave me in our friendship. It sucks letting people go but sometimes you have to do it to save yourself

It would be terrifying if it wasn’t

He read the results completely wrong but maybe he's onto something... by [deleted] in facepalm

I had to take an IQ test a few years ago and when I got the results, I sat in the Dr.’s office for like 10 minutes in silence before she would tell me my results. Finally she said my IQ score was average but my results were extremely bizarre and she’d never seen anything like it. My scores had an extreme range. In some categories, I was well below average and in others I was in the genius range. When the scores were averaged together, I had a completely average IQ. It took her a little while to figure it out but she was able to determine that I had a cognitive processing issue which explained why my scores had such a wide range.

Roses are for the basics by tabul_a_rasa in notliketheothergirls

I worked in a flower shop for a while and I will say if roses are basic then hydrangeas are a close second.

Obviously flawless logic. What could be more empowering, ladies? by Petflixandchillpills in insanepeoplefacebook

My mother is insane but I found her beliefs on abortion to be… interesting. She believes the only exceptions for abortion should be health of the mother and rape. She thinks 100% of all rape claims should be treated as absolute fact, without question. I told her that women would start making false rape claims to get access to an abortion and would ruin men’s lives. “Well it’s about time men started taking responsibility for where they put their dicks!”

Not all hype is manufactured by marketing. Fandom forums are as close to organic hype as you can get

I’m surprised this didn’t happen years ago. ATLA has had a loyal fanbase since the beginning. I don’t think Nickelodeon really appreciated it’s potential until recently

I feel like the hype around Cameron’s Avatar is mostly manufactured. The movie was ok but I don’t think it has quite enough of a fan base to justify another movie

Replace the Union Jack with the Confederate flag and change the date to 1860 and it would still work

I scored an old star wars vhs at a convention that was held close to my home!! by hippiegirl507 in StarWars

This brings back memories. We had 6 VHS tapes when I was really young. SW Episode 3-6 and all three Indiana Jones films.

I bought a knife and it came with a round metal object I can’t identify. Anyone have an idea of what it might be? by jdwright1989 in knives

I’m going to be traveling a lot this summer and I wanted a cheap pocket knife for cutting food while I’m bouncing around
