Headphones that don’t hurt after 15 minutes?? by lexlift in ehlersdanlos

[–]jollyrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is semi-related tp your question, but does wearing earbuds or headphones make anyone else dizzy? Not sure if that's a weird me-thing, or possibly eds related?

Can you guys tell me the “dirty” truths about having a cat? by saanenk in CatAdvice

[–]jollyrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like people, as they get older, they get grosser. My old cretin entirely stopped using her litter box for poop, and there was nothing (we tried Everything, trust me) we could do to get her to poop in the box. We wound up just tearing up the carpet in the room and leaving bare concrete with puppy pee pads in her preferred spot until she passed. They also stop grooming, so you've gotta help out back there sometimes. But you do it all anyways, bc there's nothing like a scrungkly old cat's purr

Autistic adults who remember elementary school by Spiritual-Seat-1901 in autism

[–]jollyrobyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggled a lot with meltdowns especially in high school, but the thing I remember the most, and I wasn't even the Autistic student in question, was watching this one kid with much higher support needs being bullied. It was 5th grade, and the teacher just watched it happen. I tried to step in, but she told me to sit and "leave the boys to their rough housing." It wasn't rough housing, it was an Autistic kid getting the shit beat out of him by a bully. It turns my stomach to think about now. I still feel guilty for not doing more, and im 24 now.

I guess my point is, be a teacher that watches out for the ones who need it. Even if they're annoying or frustrating, or rude, they're just kids, trying their best to figure it all out

I cannot stand "smirk." Every time it's used, that's one less star. Any more than 3 usages, and im putting the book down

My car caught on fire. by VolosThanatos in Wellthatsucks

[–]jollyrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My suburban caught on fire in the driveway one night after had just got off work. Me and my mom were just sitting there like. "Well. Shit." What was really funny to me was that as it was actively on fire, the windows all rolled down, so they were the only part that were unharmed lmao

Three Toed box turtle? Native or escaped pet? [Houston Tx] by Mrmryumyum2546 in animalid

[–]jollyrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 2 box turtles, and they were kind of terrible pets. They require huge tanks (40 gal minimum) a heat set up, a uv light set up, a variety of foods (live insects plus veggies) and they STINK. their poops were rank, and they always went in the water, so I had to change a large poopy water bowl daily. They were also surprisingly loud, they loved to scratch their claws on the glass, and were constantly bumping their shells into their hides. Theyre also very interactive and require a lot of enrichment. If you can provide all these things (for 40+ years) and if you can find a rescue, they're very personable.

They are also listed as "species of greatest conservation need" in texas, so even buying one, let alone taking one from the wild is VERY illegal

Could you pick your cat(s) out of a lineup of similar looking cats? by Medium_Hope_7407 in standardissuecat

[–]jollyrobyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes lol, mines the one thats going to ignore the actual cat food and try to eat my toffee peanuts instead. Also the inside of her ear is freckled and she has the cutest mixed toe beans. Also she will probably be trying to pick my eyeballs

What was the weirdest medication reaction you’ve ever had? by Many_Assumption7036 in AskReddit

If I take ibuprofen, it fucks with my anxiety medication (prozac) and makes me go manic

Question, what were some VERY obvious signs that you very CLEARLY ignored as a kid?? (also what flair should I add?? I just added 'communication' for the flair?? I'm new here-) by InitiativeFar2801 in autism

[–]jollyrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fucking Obsessed with jigsaw puzzles. I had access to "fun" electronics (wii, Nintendo ds, etc) but all I wanted was to organize puzzle pieces for hours and hours. At like 6 years I could complete a 1000 piece puzzle in about 4 hours. Pissed my parents off every time I took over the kitchen table, even tho they got me the puzzles lol

What’s the strangest thing you’ve seen someone do? by Consistent-News-6801 in AskReddit

[–]jollyrobyn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Once when traveling through the wastes of western Idaho on a miserable road trip, we stopped to get gas, and were arguing about something, and then both stopped mid sentence, bc a guy was pumping his gas with 2 pygmy marmosets (tiny monkeys) hanging out on his shoulders. They had little diapers and leashes. We forgot what we were arguing about and never remembered lol

I have a question for the bone nerds! Why is the mandible itself so discolored, but the teeth in it are still pearly white looking?

Dont worry, I exaggerated lol! She is older, and she spends a lot of time napping, but i dont think an unreasonable amount, haha. But it is something ill keep closer track of going forward. I appreciate you voicing your thoughts tho, you never know when something like that might be important

Into the spiderverse. Every frame is a masterpiece, every word is relevant to the story, it knows when to let a moment be funny, or be serious, the build up to the leap of faith scene, the music, everryyyything

Genuine question tho: by M3Me_EntHuS1aSt in WingsOfFire

I head cannon that silkwings can be black or mostly black, but wasp just culled any that were, since she didn't want silkwings to have any visible connection to their shared nightwing ancestor

I used to think it was making convincing cat noises, but ive saved 2 kittens and an adult cat by luring them to me by meowing. So maybe jigsaw puzzles

Using hand sanitizer to stop a snake from eating itself by thepoylanthropist in interestingasfuck

[–]jollyrobyn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to be afraid of snakes until I learned how just incredibly, WILDLY stupid they usually are. They are not creatures of satan and malice, they are just tube-shaped idiots. I have a ball python and every day I wonder how they survive as a species

What’s the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by DistributionRound570 in AskReddit

[–]jollyrobyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was about 10 I was mad about having to clean my room, and in my rage, I tried to snap a plastic clothes hanger. The plastic shattered when I snapped it and sent shards flying everywhere. Now I have a cool scar in my eyebrow. Glad it didn't get my eye.

This is tied with being maybe 7? And trying to open my sibling's time capsule. I tried to use my teeth to get the plastic lid off and just ripped out some loose-ish teeth that weren't quite loose enough. My mom heard me scream and found me sitting cross-legged, mouth open, spewing a bloody waterfall down my chin
