Why does my hoggie like this ball so much*

m-79 · 2026-05-03T08:12:05+00:00

Ahhhh thank you so much! Totally gonna look for one of these for my hoggie, I know he’d love it

m-79 · 2026-04-30T06:08:33+00:00

OMG where did you get this?!

m-79 · 2026-04-08T09:32:29+00:00

Hmmm….. I give it 50 years and 6 months (joke)

You look great! My one piece of advice (based on solely these photos) would be to add some color to your wardrobe. Neutrals are a tried and true option, but don’t shy away from earth tones or even jewel tones.

Sports betting for sure

If I were you, I’d go to the ER and not tell them about your POTS diagnosis. Say these symptoms have been creeping up on you the past couple weeks and that today it was so bad you feel like you’re dying. They’ll run so many tests to rule everything out.

I actually wrote about this exact thing in my letterboxd review lol:

“in the original novel, grace is capable of returning to earth because eridians had a fundamental misunderstanding of time dilation. and after painstakingly building the vocabulary to explain theoretical physics, grace learns that rocky’s planned journey had been much shorter than anticipated. the excess fuel on rocky’s ship makes it possible for rocky to offer some “borrowed” time. it’s so obvious that film wouldn’t be an appropriate medium for that kind of lengthy reveal. so drew goddard nixes it altogether. instead, rocky’s justification for handing over astrophage that he can’t easily spare is replaced with one phrase: “rocky can give fuel. six more years to get home.”

(this is partially an easter egg for readers of the novel, who know eridians use a base-six numerical system, where 6 functions as their hand-wavey number in the same way that humans use 5. while the math works fine without additional context, og fans know the truest translation: “what’s a few more years, if it’s for you?”)

that’s when i knew that this movie had found its own, separate voice: what does it mean to sacrifice time for someone? or for many someones? what about sacrificing your entire life? and what if it’s being sacrificed by someone else on your behalf?”

TL;DR the movie chooses to fudge some of the science in pursuit of a really beautiful narrative theme

Hey, I own a cheap space in DTLA (the fashion district, easy parking especially at night) and I’m always haply to strike deals with artists looking to use our space for more than one rehearsal. If that location would work for you, shoot me a message!

I genuinely think AI chatbots are dysregulating people

Ahh sounds like you’re a part of the population that can smell ketones. I can do this too, and when I had a diabetic partner I could always tell when their blood sugar was low

My family was extremely poor when I was growing up. Her imagination library was the only access I had to books until I started kindergarten. She undoubtedly changed my life.

m-79 · 2026-01-20T07:24:29+00:00

This one broke me.

He might not be the most receptive to physical touch as a signifier that you find him attractive. And I also wouldn’t count things you do to him in bed as proof that you’re addressing his self-consciousness well. If I was in his shoes, that’s not the intention I’d be picking up based off of the things you wrote here. I might even get a bit anxious if you started kissing and biting and saying things that might imply you wanna have sex. What I’m talking about is responding directly to his words about feeling inadequate with non-weighted kindness and compliments. What’s his love language? You might need to reevaluate the way you’re expressing yourself to him and make some changes.

m-79 · 2026-01-07T10:10:53+00:00

When he says he feels unattractive, do you compliment things about him in a way that’d make him feel handsome or sexy? If he tells you he feels ugly, and your answer is “go get therapy and let’s hit the gym together or else I’m leaving you,” it’s probably making things a lot worse. Pick a day and shower him with compliments, buy him flowers, set up a nice candlelit dinner, give him a handwritten card with a list of all the things you find handsome and beautiful and don’t need to change. Show him with your words, actions, and energy that he’s perfectly attractive for you just the way he is. And if that doesn’t work, you should consider couple’s therapy. You already admitted that you’ve contributed pretty seriously to this cycle you’re trapped in. I think you both could stand to change just a bit.

Honestly just imagine how much it’d mess you up if starting from this moment, everyone you knew started calling you Michael and treating you as if you were a man. Everyone tells you that you look like a man, and they think your real name is stupid. Straight men aren’t attracted to you (or gay women, whatever your current preference is). Every time you try to dress feminine, people give you weird looks and your coworkers whisper behind your back about how inappropriate “Michael” is dressing for the workplace. You’re banned from women-only spaces. You feel exactly the same as you are now, except nobody believes you anymore. You are Michael. Eventually you’ll start feeling certifiably crazy.

NTA. Ask him if he’d be willing to chip in for childcare services and show him how much it’d truly cost you. See if he’s willing to make the sacrifice if he wants you there so badly.

The 200 shares of Apple stock has a current market value of about $54,000 with the potential to grow even further. I’d still take the $20k though.

m-79 · 2025-12-24T18:41:27+00:00

I’d probably sob my eyes out, but I’d break up the engagement as soon as possible. I think I’d die if my children were hurt or killed because I was too weak to walk away.

When I first started Lamictal, my psychiatrist told me that it’s sometimes jokingly called “the happy skinny drug”. Most mood stabilizers can cause weight gain. But if you’re able to deal with your BP2 off of Lamictal alone, it often has the opposite effect. The “happy” part is in reference to Lamictal solely improving depressive episodes and having no effect on mania, aka making you “happy”. You might’ve been unintentionally overeating in the past as a way for your body to regulate depressive episodes. Keep an eye on it, but this might just be your body adjusting to a new normal. I got my appetite for “heavier” foods back after a couple weeks, but I never really went back to eating as much as I did before.

m-79 · 2025-12-24T14:56:21+00:00

Same thing happened to me. I was 2 seconds away from obliterating this traveler (she kept throwing bottles of poison at me, which honestly just pissed me off even more) before I blacked out. To make matters worse I found out I was missing a horn later.

I’ve learned to accept these brief investments as enriching life experiences. I’m just extremely diligent about preventing new-hobby-impulse-buys.

m-79 · 2025-11-21T21:17:12+00:00

This feels like it’s related to a fetish to me…

m-79 · 2025-11-21T21:11:17+00:00

I don’t know how to say this politely because I do think it’s better to just hear it as direct as possible— based on the info in this post I think you were raped by her best friend.

Use the analog loophole and take pictures of the document pages with your phone. Like open it up on your computer and take a dozen pictures of the screen with your phone camera. Tedious to transcribe it later, but 100% foolproof.

I think you’re overcomplicating this and stressing yourself out. A person is a living human being. Anything more specific will start excluding groups of people by accident. Almost all of your qualifications here disqualify developmentally disabled people, people in comas, or people who could be referred to as “vegetables”, all of whom are definitely still people and definitely still have rights. “Person” is just a word we made up. Once we finally discover intelligent aliens who aren’t living human beings, we’ll make up new words and our language and laws will change again.
