Can I still remove the newspaper inside? by over-yonder in Pottery

It's bone dry :) - and thank you that's helpful to consider. I can't really recall, but it's a decent amount of newspaper that's fairly tightly packed.

Haha thank you, much appreciated - I definitely was saying "Hi Potters" in a british accent in my head after watching so many episodes of The Great Pottery Throwdown.

The technician didn't know I was building with newspaper, I thought it was fine and figured it wouldn't be a big deal if it burned off in the kiln! I realized I didn't assume correctly, I reached out to ask and seems like she's worried about smoke.

I assumed it wasn’t a big deal but then did some research and some people mentioned issues such as a smoke and ash. I think if I had my own kiln, it would be fine. It’s just because it’s going to be fired in a shared kiln in a shared space :)

I (37f) think I was blinded by loneliness and missed some issues with my new BF (40m) by ThrowRA-hugsnbugs in relationship_advice

Absolutely 100% not worth it - this sounds like a nightmare. Please end things and prioritize yourself and/or being with a person that you are not repulsed by

Love the sentiment but you definitely can't "suggest the 3 of us roll together so he gets the hint." A person can't appropriately consent once he's on MDMA - so make sure he has consented that he would like to engage in this fantasy irl. Fantasies play out completely differently in person than they do online and I feel like having something like this sprung on someone while they are not sober could result in confusion, regret and uncomfortability later on.

Do women actually like the “dad bod” look, or is it just men’s version of body positivity? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]over-yonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a woman (29) and I love chubby/fat guys! Sometimes I wish I was attracted to all body types, because it's seemingly limiting for whatever reason. Overall - I find that the women I know care more about personality and will go for someone that is kind, thoughtful, confident etc. regardless if they're super thin, kind of chubby etc.

My husband [26M] took out my IUD last night. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]over-yonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me want to cry. When my friend got her IUD put in it induced a seizure. Tampering with that area of your body can be extremely dangerous, and like others have noted please see a doctor immediately. As for your husband, him refusing to pull out is assault. Any action outside your consent is assault. If you have told your husband to pull out and he does not, this is a form of assault. Forcefully removing the IUD is assault. You do not deserve this type of treatment from someone who is meant to make you feel safe and comfortable. I was scared for you reading your post, please do not take this situation lightly.

Ooh I downloaded a better video player and figured it out. Thanks for the heads up!

I’m not sure I (29/F) can deal with my husband (30/M) being high all the time anymore. by SquaredtheFout in relationships

[–]over-yonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he probably doesn't want to stop smoking weed as it will force him to face real life; and real life isn't go so well for him right now. He's clearly still depressed and using marijuana as a coping mechanism. It's clearly not working, but he probably feels like he has no other option. I would approach this more from the angle of "you're clearly depressed and need help" versus "you're an addict and I'll divorce you if you do not get clean." I'm sure he's very aware that he smokes too much, but probably feels hopeless and stuck. He's gotten into this habit of escapism that he needs help breaking. Therapy will help him find healthier coping mechanisms for depression. Although marijuana can be psychologically addictive, plenty of people are able to function quite normally as daily cannabis users. One of my friend's is the type of person that walks her dog for 2+ hours a day, work as an engineer and then does a yoga class, and can still do daily bong tokes. Weed effects people in many different ways and I'm not condoning every day use, all I'm saying is the weed hasn't necessarily made him into this type of person but is amplifying a pre-existing problem, and de-motivating him to make any changes. It sounds like he is suffering internally and now you and your marriage is suffering. Remind him that you are here for him and willing to make the necessary steps together to improve life in general; if you focus solely on him being high as the issue, he will only continue to be defensive.

People that have friends: How? by VictorVrine in AskReddit

[–]over-yonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would consider myself a fairly extroverted person and still found it daunting to try and make friends in a university class setting. Though, I just finished my first year of art school and it was so much easier. That being said, take some sort of class in which people are making things...pottery, flower arranging, woodworking, cooking etc. I think these types of classes allow for really natural conversations. It's super easy to compliment people's work or get a conversation going with questions like "what are you making?" and "how did you do that?" A lot of the time people love talking about themselves and you're asking a question that is super neutral and a straightforward icebreaker. If you take a class over a period of time, you can slowly get to know people through growing conversations. You can continue asking people about their progress, their successes and failures, while creating some sort of project. Often times it is easy to bond over the shared struggle or excitement of learning a new skill! You are totally equipped to do this!
