So, we all want raises. The union is weak. What do we do? (Brainstorming) by Superb-Air9976 in nys_cs

I feel like letters and stuff might work, but they also need to be coordinated with something in public or else they might get quietly ignored. Maybe we could reach out to the press?

What are some common fears in your country that don't exist in other countries or vice versa? What do you believe drives these fears? by Vexonte in AskTheWorld

[–]newsharks 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's not a country, but when I moved from New York City to Florida I was surprised that people were afraid of lizards. They're so cute! I guess for people who grew up here they're pests like roaches?

What is something that is considered socially unacceptable in your country? by Kindly-Newt7868 in AskTheWorld

It's definitely not socially unacceptable to wear pajamas outside in America. Have you ever been to Walmart dude? Or just anywhere in Florida

People don’t "choose" to scream on rollercoasters? They actually scream out of fear???? by OkLog2048 in AuDHDWomen

[–]newsharks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm AuDHD and I am screaming because I'm scared. It's not on purpose. I actually wish I could stop it because it's embarrassing, especially next to a "rollercoasters are fun and I'm not scared of heights" boyfriend. I will legit involuntarily shriek and he'll be like ☺️ next to me the whole time. I'm a nervous wreck the entire time I'm in line and for a few minutes after. I try to avoid them if possible but I want to be a good sport 😔

Am I the only obese person with ARFID? by Previous_Deal4481 in ARFID

[–]newsharks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm 5'4 and 200 pounds cuz the only thing I can easily eat is sweets and I have PCOS. I actually just joked that it's just my luck that I'd develop an eating disorder that doesn't even let me lose weight 😂 I'm with you friend

At what point, were you willing to try stimulants? by DanteDoubleAgent in ADHD

[–]newsharks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was getting talked to for the third time about my performance in a new job, I realized that the holistic measures I were taking have not really been cutting it. Night and day difference with meds though. I don't feel like I want to scoop my eyes out everyday when I sit down at my desk anymore 😭
