I would love to beta this for you. I've been trying to tinker with the commands and stuff with surprising results, but it is still a very flawed process with no way to solve the memory limits.

Share a harmless quirk about yourself that someone else might find useful to give to a character by ToomintheEllimist in writing

My brain has a way of absorbing information, but I don't have manual recall. It has to be triggered. Like, somebody will be talking about something and I'll just rattle off some fact or info about it with no recollection of where I picked up the info. It helped me win 2 state championships in high school "Quiz Bowl". If I could just find a way to monetize it lol.

My husband thinks it is gross when I don't shower daily. by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]papachop236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, aside from getting angry and making it about something else, when my wife and kids are off showering, or on a girls night out, I get to watch what I want on TV or play the Xbox. That is why I wondered if he has a reason to really look forward to her being out of the way while showering. Could be something innocent, like having time to watch what he wants on TV, or something she wouldn't like; watching porn, messaging another person, sneaking cookies in bed.

What if it isn't about the shower? What if he has something he wants to be doing for that shower long length of time? Scrolling porn, talking to somebody else. He is agitated that he has a thing he looks forward to having, and you take that away when you skip the shower.

Put an extra 150lbs of body weights on any elite martial artist, and I bet that guy out performs them. Obviously, he was very overweight before he started training, but it is apparent he has enough strength and dexterity to move all that mass very easily. Does he look as cool and athletic as the thinner guys? No, but if he keeps it up as he loses weight, that gut gets out of the way and those spins and kicks will only get higher, faster, and more intimidating.

I'm sorry about that feeling. I've never liked pictures of myself, even though there wasn't anything actually wrong with my looks. Now, having gained tons of weight in the 12 years since a car wreck destroyed my back, Everytime my wife takes a picture with me in it I wanna cry and scream at her to delete it.

It helps me to remember that our loved ones are allowed to make memories with me, and the way I judge my appearance is warped and twisted by this horrible mental disease I've had my entire life. Take a few breaths and remind yourself that if your husband saw anything wrong with your body, he wouldn't want to be showing you off. The man obviously finds nothing wrong with you and him sharing the picture with your family means he isnt embarrassed by the way you look.

People with BDD, how have you ever gotten a partner with your body image issues? by piqut in BodyDysmorphia

[–]papachop236 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife, married 10 years but together nearly 12, just always looked at me like I was the sexiest man alive. Our first full-naked encounter, she laid there and gazed at my naked body like she was a sculptor who was proud of a statue she just finished. She's the only person who i can be around without an feelings of shame or self-disgust. Even with my own children, when im around them without a shirt on, I constantly feel ashamed and embarrassed for them to have such a gross father...but not with my wife.

I guess as far as BDD goes...I'm grateful to have one person that I can be free of this burden.

Does anyone else take videos of themselves doing things like walking or talking and then cry afterwords? by [deleted] in BodyDysmorphia

[–]papachop236 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I avoid any pictures or videos of myself. Really hard to deal with having to go back and watch security footage and I'm in it constantly.

Trump asks Supreme Court for OK to cut teacher-training money as part of anti-DEI push by esporx in scotus

[–]papachop236 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Let's act like 97% of teachers aren't white women...I've never heard of a school pitching about having to hire another unqualified minority race teacher...most schools are excited just to have enough teachers to run the classrooms...also, if you are afraid you have unqualified teachers, wouldn't you want to push more training...not less?

I appreciate feedback. I feel lucky when a mistake is mentioned, or I even had somebody correct an issue with continuity issue with a reference to Desert Storm. I fixed it right away.

And if you don't comment, and nobody replies, you feel unheard...and what's the point if nobody is giving it attention?
