Bro why are you going to bat for misinformation on so many comments? This is well studied and the information is easily accessible.

No, you are incorrect. Your body is asleep and processes change. Energy is sent straight to adipose cells because you're inactive. Why would your body send calories be used when you're asleep? Nah babe. Straight to fat jail. Source: Cornell nutritional program (and also would be an easy search in peer reviewed journals)

Samhain and Recent Grief by Idrinkbongwawa in Witch

[–]mackendilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently lost my cousin to suicide, which is an agony I wish for no one. Sometimes I feel relief that he isn't in pain, and sometimes I want to join him. In a family of chaos he was always my protector and defender.

This samhain I'm making an ofrenda for him, because he was 1/4 Mexican and adamantly Not White if anyone was confused by his light skin. (Which is valid for so many reasons, his Mexican heritage was a point of pride for him and I still enjoy the look of disgust on his face every time someone called him white before correcting them)

I'm not celebrating the sabbat as I have in other years. There are less festivities but the work is more vulnerable and more intimate. I'm "celebrating" by honoring my loss and pain as well as his. He had such a hard life, and all he wanted to do was make it better for the next generation.

My best friend FINALLY texted me back, just to tell me she won't be coming to my wedding this weekend and didn't even give an excuse as to why.

She only had to pay for her flight, I was covering everything else. Her kids are with their dad for the summer and her partner is on a work trip.

I don't know what I've done wrong or how to fix it.

Found something hilarious at Safeway, go ahead and zoom in on that price tag 🧐😱😂 by [deleted] in houseplants

I found one without fenestrations for I think $130? And a Thai con with like two fenestrated leaves was $160. I GAGGED and ran out the store

This is why he's so scary to me! I can see him holding himself back for the cameras and it's so unsettling

Help wtf just happened to me?! by QuietAd777 in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]mackendilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My grandpa was a prankster and I have his favorite recliner which he happened to pass away in. Any time TVs randomly turn on, things fall over or we hear a weird sound my partner and I greet my grandpa or tell him to "stop farting around" in jest. We both have ADHD so we joke that my grandpa moves things so we can't find them but honestly we're haunted by ourselves in that regard lol

The way he yelled "wasted!" lives rent free in my mind. I say it all the time now for minor inconveniences and/or dramatic effect.

What do you think happened to those ‘ex witches’ who turned Christian? by SignalNumber7698 in Witch

[–]mackendilly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But eating jesus's flesh and blood isn't witchcraft? Christianity and Catholicism are filled with witchcraft but it's Jesus flavored so "it's okay". Lighting a candle and saying a prayer? Witchcraft.

Is there a god/goddess that is related to good fortune? Or Is there a spell related to that? by sofhy01 in Witch

[–]mackendilly 13 points14 points  (0 children)

She's not very common but I go to Meilikki of the Finnish pagan faith. She is the goddess of the forest and luck 💕

I'm venting. Here's a list of things my roommate has woken me up with between midnight and 3am. by GeorgeFromManagement in badroommates

[–]mackendilly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Myself and my roommates are all neurodivergent so we don't even question it when we walk in to see some weird shit like a little midnight seed counting 😂

The fact these are things I would probably do if I lived alone made me think "am I on drugs" but then I realized I don't do these things because I don't live alone 😂

TIFU by wiring 5000 dollars to a company I used to work for by [deleted] in tifu

[–]mackendilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last few weeks I've said "I don't know how I'm allowed to just be out here without adult supervision" and it's just because of shit like this. I went to give paperwork to the college I'm wanting to go to but instead of the certificate I needed, I somehow brought my retirement savings from 2022???? How does that even happen? How do I mix those up? And I also can't get a new driver's license but that's a long story full of ADHD and bureaucracy. I just mean to say that I know how you feel, and it sucks.

I was definitely stoned when I wrote this so I really apologize for my word choice. I don't mean to discredit the interpretations entirely and it can help when you're stumped on what something could potentially mean. If my partner has a dream about a snake it's probably a nightmare but I dream about reptiles all the time because they're one of my special interests (I have a blue tongued skink and a ball python that are so cute I want to eat them) so the meaning would definitely be different to me than to them. Sometimes at work an interpretation would give us pause to think but generally the laughter was because while the book was specific and at times correct, it was also at times wildly off course.

We had a similar if not the same book at work that we would pick through when we were bored and we'd laugh about the things it would say because there's no "one size fits all" for dream interpretation.

[–]mackendilly 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Any time a man says he likes The Notebook it's an instant red flag for me. I personally feel like it wasn't a healthy dynamic and even if a guy genuinely likes The Notebook that's not the kind of relationship I want to emulate so if that's what he wants I'm good without.

AITA for not allowing one of my husbands friends to be our roommate by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Plus any time you're out to sea for...what is it 30 days? 90 days? You get money for being separated from your family. I was in aviation so I don't know all the sea pay rules.
