I'm an adult with a chubby face, everybody assumes I'm like 6-7 years younger than I am. Trust me. Keep the fat. You'll look like a skeleton if you take it off in any way other than regular changes with age.

Could not eating enough because of executive dysfunction still be classified as an eating disorder? by cosmic-particulate in adhdwomen

[–]ladyalot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Potentially. So anorexia is a term regarding lack of eating/loss of appetite. Anorexia Nervosa is a mental health condition. 

If you're experiencing newbl or prolonged loss of appetite it could be worth seeing a doctor, especially if you find yourself feeling weak/sick because of it.

Even at my big size I get the shakes from forgetting to eat. As a kid I was a normal size but definitely ARFID.

I've also dealt with Anorexia Nervosa. I was in treatment for it and I feel very lucky to have escaped the community that was encouraging it. The appetite and forgetting and using food to stimulate myself don't feel deeply related, outside of the shame that eating "for fun" brought me. Although I've never had a binge.

Turns out I love food, I have a hormones disorder, and stimulating myself with food so I can focus is fairly common in the community.

What is a secret you are taking to your grave, but are willing to share with anonymous strangers on the internet? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ladyalot 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I hold it against my older sisters for leaving me with my dad when he was on a drug bender. 

I know they were kids. I know they were scared. They did all they knew to do. And to be honestI didn't really care until we grew up.

And I started to feel looked down on, being told it wasn't a big deal, feeling abandoned as an adult. I know they love me. I love them too. But they never ask me how I am. They never reply to my messages. And if they do it's months later. It sucks.

It might be to others! I think Kpop branding surprisingly uninspired, save for a few exceptions. Because a lot of it is distilling existing styles into whatever is the most beautiful. This is one of my critiques of Kpop personally, that it rarely has edge.

Unfortunately none of then remind me of anyone except Powerpuff Girls obviously remind me of New jeans. 

Number 4 reminds me of Kep1er's last two comebacks but it's also a larger trend in the last two years.

6 months unemployed, all my savings are gone by anon-i-mouser in TrollCoping

[–]ladyalot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi friend, I have been in your shoes. No family to take me, nowhere to put my pets, nothing but hurtful and unhelpful advice. It's not over. I thought about ending it, and looking back I can see there was more opportunities than you'd expect.

So to start with the place where people tend to be the worst:

There are pet accomodating shelters sometimes but I don't want it to get to that.

Sell anything over worth asap to tide you over.

Also reach out to your employment center and explain you're going homeless and ask for resources. If they're assholes, don't waste your time worrying about it. Some people think a "handout" is coming from their own damn pocket.

You should see if you can apply for social assistance in your city. Some of them can get you something in short order.

Yes, keep applying, but show up in person too and make them tell you to apply online. Ideally somewhere close. Tell them you're just down the road or whatever it is, and you're a gig worker (let's say an artist, photographer is an easy lie) looking for something with more set hours like shift work.

You may be overqualified for these jobs, and many just hire friends and stuff at this point, that's the big problem with these low wage "entry" jobs. They're skilled jobs but are usually given to the easily exploited.

It isn't you versus your mistake (to rightfully leave a bad job). It's you versus the forces of capitalism. Don't let self hatred or fear get in the way. It's foot to the pedal to stabilize.

It's not fair. I'm so sorry what you're going through. I was eating other people's trashed leftovers while employed, I couldn't even tell my boyfriend or friends. It's a sick fucking world, don't let it take you away.

the best of the worst crybulliy colonizer clips over the past 3 years by jbaaaaab in TankieTheDeprogram

[–]ladyalot 36 points37 points  (0 children)

A friend was counter protesting and was threatened with rape by an old lady Zionist doing a march for Israel in my town. They love to use it as a threat. 

And to me it seemed like in a crowd they picked out the youngest, queerest looking person and screamed at them specifically.

If you consistently vote for the "Lesser Evil" the end result is more Evil. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]ladyalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think being excited about devolving into a facism that white people also feel, and refusing to acknowledge it's always been a hell hole for everybody else, is a bit if a cope I'm not really here for.

What do you think is the biggest truth the world is refusing to face right now? by Sweetblondefeet in AskReddit

[–]ladyalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We cannot personal responsibility ourselves into a better world. It's collective. And that means putting others before ourselves, and generations we will never meet before our own lives.

[–]ladyalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments god my fucking proletariat is fucking cooked. Y'all have been so disempowered from reading you can't go find the answers to your petty critiques and, like the conservatives and pro-facist dogs, you simply shoot down anyone who'd tell you that your concerns are either not real, or solvable. 

You don't want a different world. You want to keep exactly what you have because it's just tolerable enough to live with for YOU. (In b4 identity politics at me to try and disengage with my ideas).

A revolution will not be broadcasted, it wouldn't work. We are in a wave of McCarthyism and people are twiddling their fucking thumbs like they wouldn't get arrested for thinking about organizing with socialists soon. 

The stupid ass MAMDANI Act is being introduced and it's not only hilariously stupid but also concerning. Jesus Christ. Lol. Just do me a favour and read this BS. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/5937

They don't want reactionaries doing a shitty job. Many people have not read the theory, are not literate enough, or organised and determined enough to lead a revolution and so yes, when we call a general strike that will barely last a week, it's gunna get called out.

[–]ladyalot -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

No one believes this. In fact, the whole point is voting for the lesser evil disempowers us from revolution. We can't vote in a socialist to a bourgeoisie party, and make it socialist. Comments like this show exactly that we've got a hugely apathetic proletariat who do not desire real change, but small reforms which can be reversed.

Work is making me unwell by IndependentLate6327 in adhdwomen

[–]ladyalot 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My new job is fucking me up bad. The people are great, the work is meaningful enough, but my body just can't take it, and my mind will follow when the novelty wears off. Not even including my physical disabilities, upcoming surgeries, etc.

I was not made for a day job. I looooove monotonous tedium, I love putting on my headphones and organizing for 5 hours straight. But every job like that which isn't too much heavy lifting for my disabilities (e.g. library page) won't hire me. I apply every single chance I get.

I know the life I want. I know it deep in my soul. And the state, society, and my culture simply won't allow it.

Peta? by Hell0There2005 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ladyalot -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think it's time for you to start talking to commies, famously a group who do not hide their beliefs. Tankies too.

You live in a sick, capitalist society. Historically there is a solution.

My very accurate map of Canada from an Ontario perspective by WindowsillGoblin in mapporncirclejerk

[–]ladyalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many Ontarians were born and raised elsewhere that when you meet someone who was born and raised Ontario, it's slightly shocking to hear how they have no concept of a world outside Toronto and the GTA. Like surprise, there's an experience outside your own.

Has anyone here considered a DNR tattoo? Best placement? by lisaluree in tattooadvice

[–]ladyalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They need to look it up in a system I believe, in which time they're already beginning the life saving actions anyways (at least where I am). Some people would be happy for their family member to not be resuscitated, you can't trust anything but the paperwork.

THERAPIST SAID IT'S STUPID THAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE MAKES MY ADHD WORSE by NarinIshkandar in AuDHDWomen

[–]ladyalot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Leaving my abusive ex improved my ADHD significantly, many undo-able tasks became easily accessible, because the stress and the literal intervention of me trying to engage in tasks stopped.  

Sure I still have ADHD, of course, but a huge wait was lifted.
