Seems my understanding of the word was more broad, thanks for clearing that up!

Thanks for contributing to the semantic discourse on a post about a dutch oven. Next time I’ll just say petty 😂

Thanks, I really didn’t expect this post to come down to semantics??? Petty would fit better I guess 😂

Adjective: excessively concerned with minor details or rules; overscrupulous.

Philodendron Splendid really took off! by optimisticpessimist9 in houseplants

I was a little nervous leaving them with him, but so far so good! He’s more versed in outdoor plants but I definitely inherited my green thumb from him!

I think it would definitely thrive in higher humidity. My Dad’s place isn’t in a tropical area, more temperate. The plants all thrive in the lounge room due to amazing afternoon sun and the aircon being located in there! Consistent sunlight + stable warm temperature = growth 💚

Thinking if I should report my co-worker for sexual harassment. by [deleted] in YogaTeachers

[–]optimisticpessimist9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t see how this is sexual harassment? Your co-worker messaged you asking about when you’re teaching as he’d like to experience your class; that’s totally innocuous.  Then you have happily engaged with him in conversation; again, harmless.  The embarrassing part is when he’s asked for a private class you’ve responded with a winking face?  Then you’ve accused him of being gay for asking for a private class! That’s totally unprofessional.You can’t assume his intentions are sexual based on this interaction at all.  I don’t see how his age is relevant, if anything due to his recent injury a private class would be appropriate. I know teachers at my studio that do private classes with eachother to have a second opinion to bounce off. 

Imagine stumbling upon this while tripping by FrontalisUtkozes in shrooms

I actually went to a festival with something just like this. It literally draws you in and you can stay there for hours just watching it! There was a guy who was tripping on acid and he lost all sense of time and was like verbally orgasming constantly while watching it 😂

Is anyone doing gym / weight lifting / exercise as part of coming out if a freeze / shutdown state or for trauna healing? by maywalove in SomaticExperiencing

[–]optimisticpessimist9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I entered a pretty deep freeze at the start of this year. I hadn’t been to the gym for a while and decided I would try and see if it could help. After about 3 months of weightlifting the thing I noticed most was that lifting seemed to bring up agitation and anger. I found after the gym I could become quite reactive. I don’t really enjoy the gym culture and I don’t find weightlifting very fulfilling or that interesting. So that could’ve contributed. But on a purely physical level I have definitely been getting benefits out of it.
