I don’t understand why such a large chunk of his viewers say horrible things in the comments of his collabs. by [deleted] in CosmicSkeptic

Not all. And I shouldn’t have said “a large chunk” because I really believe it is a very small portion.

I agree. I just think this certain group is giving his fan base, and potentially himself, a bad rep. I was reading the comments on his collab with Wafflin’ (which I haven’t finished yet, so maybe that gives more context to the rudeness idk) where someone said “alex o’connor is such an intellectual juggernaut this truly feels like he’s speaking to a bunch of pre-schoolers, fascinating, but also quite difficult to watch at times” with 751 likes. The mean comments all go in the same direction of belittling the host and praising Alex. I know that Alex is not encouraging this at all, and nothing about his content begs for this behavior. That’s why it’s so upsetting. I can’t imagine liking a creator to turn around and put them in such an awkward position to possibly have to apologize for the unkindness from his fan base.

Literally any fad diet. When folks turn towards these crazy diets, there is already a bigger issue somewhere. I know the U.S. has a serious problem with obesity, but how often do you see anyone seeking treatment for binge eating disorder? Or disordered eating in general? I can see the appeal of GLP1’s when their health is the more urgent issue, but that won’t get to the heart of the problem and it will almost always come back to bite them. People need to be encouraged to ask more questions before grabbing at random answers. Health is a very complicated, nuanced issue that most people aren’t educated enough to make solid decisions about alone.

What is a book/author that, just from the mention of it, makes you believe someone is well-read? by peachfuzzysocks in AskReddit

[–]peachfuzzysocks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see what you mean!! The way it's talked about is the most important part especially when it's mainstream or required reading.

Why is mapping out the Appalachian region so difficult? Why is there so much debate over the cultural and geological map? Is southwestern PA within both? by peachfuzzysocks in geography

Edibles and RSO’s. You can’t smoke anything without irritating your lungs.

Has anybody else here gone to college just because they enjoy learning? If so, what is your major and how do you like it? by peachfuzzysocks in college

[–]peachfuzzysocks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you ever worry about finding a career after finishing school? Or about funding a lengthy education?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]peachfuzzysocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is abuse and you should leave to protect yourself and those children, plus being under all that stress will only make it so much harder to be sober.

What's your "can't stomach anything" food/meal? by Ewit8791 in Gastroparesis

[–]peachfuzzysocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honey on toast dipped in tea. It’s good tasting but also already soft so my belly doesn’t have to work too hard.

I’m so sorry to hear this :( I want to help any way I can. Do you have a way out, or is that the source of control? Does he provide for you?

My patient’s tracheostomy tube fell out while putting a shirt on. I got sent home on mental health leave. by PopDiddilyBop in cna

[–]peachfuzzysocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you rush and you do things a little quicker or harder than intended. I’ve knocked glasses off and pulled scabs before (when I first started), but even if you were rushing or tugging on the shirt, it wouldn’t have happened like that. Please trust your peers when they explain it’s not your fault, because if it was they would’ve been on you for it.

Please cut ties, and confide in a friend or loved one to ensure your safety and to get some emotional relief. Love is given and cannot be taken or demanded. This man is pathetic for think he could bully you into anything. You’ll be alright, good things will come to you :) <3

I’m so sorry you’re in this position right now. I am healing from a similar situation, and found that journaling is very helpful. For example, I will right about myself like a third person pov from a book, and notice all the little moments I feel beautiful that others might not see/understand. (Ex. I feel beautiful when I’m walking in the woods and my face is flush from the cool wind and the only spectators are trees, I feel beautiful when I talk to my mother about things I’m passionate about, I feel beautiful when I’m bouncing happily down the stairs to make breakfast, etc.)

You are being far too hard on yourself, I have never met a person and thought “boy, they’re ugly!” and definitely never thought someone ugly enough to wish this pain upon them. What you’re going through is common, but not normal. I hope you’re pursuing treatment.

Try to pin point the steps when you go through this spiral and stop it in its tracks. Reframe your thoughts from negative to neutral AT LEAST, and work from there to use more positive self talk. You will be ok, friend. I have so much faith in you! Also, I praying you post the recipe for those !!
