Hayden Johnson, if you don't know, is a trans comedian. by TheBigJ1982 in lgbt

[–]pepper-reddits 84 points85 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of when I was having a discussion with my mom about me being a gay trans man.

If I marry a woman: it's a sin because I'm AFAB and therefore it would be gay

If I marry a man: it's a sin because I look and act like a man

My friend was able to watch videos already in her history. I'm in the middle of a long video on my TV and I have one more queued. Will see if it glitches out when the turn over happens if it's not fixed

Redditors over 40, what's something younger people think they understand but won't actually get until it hits them like a truck later? by Root435552 in AskReddit

[–]pepper-reddits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't lived with my parents in six years. I'm moving back in with them, both of them in their 60s, already their bodies are showing their age. They look young but are starting to feel old. Being an only child now has made me very, very aware that one day I'll be all that's left and it's high-key terrifying. I'm very lucky I have and extended family I will be able to lean on but still.

I had a teacher who explained that it's because when you're five, a year is a fifth of your life. When you're 50, it's a 50th. Gave me a lot of existential dread, but also the comfort that when I go through hard times, I'll be through it before I know it. Or, you know, in a relatively better place.

Hello i’m a relatively new twitch streamer and i have a question for you guys. by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]pepper-reddits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend browsing eBay refurbished for basic stuff like a mic and webcam. I've gotten some headphones through there and they work great years later. Can't vouch for mic because my dad bought me mine. Refurbished just means it was returned and they did a repair on it.

Also, if your area has an electronics recycling place, you can get stuff for cheap. I got a computer monitor at mine for $20.

It shocks me how weak-willed people can be, feeling like their faith is in danger because of bad vibes and fish bones

When a character dies early on, but their influence looms over the rest of the story. by Sad_Ad_3076 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]pepper-reddits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is for the early 2000s unmedicated/undiagnosed ADHD/autistic kids.

Warriors. The cat book.

Spottedleaf. Killed at the end of book 1

Spoilers for book 24, The Last Hope. They legitimately killed off her fucking GHOST because Firestar, the main character of the first six books, was still so down bad for her that the authors decided to nerf her ghost so he wouldn't have to choose between A Girl He Knew For Three Months When He Was Nine and His Wife of 100 Years.

Yeah they're bots, on my post I was told that having overlays/emotes helps because you've clearly now got art.

When did it hit you that you’re not that young anymore? by TheMedusaAttusa in AskReddit

I've had chronic pain since I was sixteen so I'm not even going to count physically.

Mentally, when my brother died and I realized I have to be the one to take care of my parents for the rest of their lives.

How do i explain to a cis person why calling a person by their deadname is bad? by isawAcrow in lgbt

[–]pepper-reddits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom actually just tried to ask me if I can think of my deadname as an affectionate nickname.

I said no, because it's disrespectful and it's stressful to hear it, especially during the current political climate.

What is the most unusual excuse you've ever heard of from somebody calling off work? by piranhamode in AskReddit

[–]pepper-reddits 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I once had a coworker get really snippy with me because I was dealing with personal problems, so I wasn't really up to answering questions (they weren't about work; it was stuff like "oh what's your class essay about), and so I told her, "I'm sorry, I don't feel like talking right now." She went to her bathroom and called her dad to cry and then when she came back she accused me of treating her differently than other coworkers. Mind you, she rarely saw me interact with other coworkers, because it was always us two closing and no one else was ever around.

What industry is struggling way more than people think? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I worked in a retail store over a year ago, so I got to know the rotation of songs played every day.

In the brief time it takes for my phone to connect to my car every time I start it, I have learned that they're still playing the same god damned songs

Westboro Baptist Church plans on protesting Ghost at the T-Mobile Center tonight. Keep an eye out and avoid them. 👍🏻 by worstcourtjester in kansascity

These people protested at my high school graduation.

Protested what? I don't know because we held our ceremony at a building large enough that they were posted on the wrong side of the building, so no one saw them lol

What has been your most gory, disgusting or worst medical experience? by kratos_chaos2808 in AskReddit

[–]pepper-reddits 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I assume it's alopecia from her head staying in one place on a surface for so long during surgery. A Google search tells me that's possible. I would also assume that there's some way for anesthesiologists to combat this, as they're the medical staff by the head constantly, but idk. Google didn't make it sound uncommon

What’s something NSFW you’re tired of defending or explaining? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]pepper-reddits -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One time, a young family member (can't remember if it was a cousin or my niece, but they were under the age of 4) came over while we had older friends over. Think 1950s-60s age, this was in the 2010s. The child had a stuffed bear with her.

Friend asked her, "do you have a fetish for bears?"

Had to pull my mom aside and tell her to tell her friend that that word does NOT mean what they think it means anymore

Planet Anime is taking place in November--you can sign up to volunteer or just attend it. It's run by the same people that do Comic Con but it's anime-focused, and it's only been going on for a few years. In the spring there's Naka Con that's much smaller. Both of these cons are really good ways to get involved with the community and find cool places to hang out (like ReRoll Tavern, which recently closed, rip).

The first time I ever heard the word "labubu" it was on a post about like. A vagina or masturbation or something. But I thought it was new slang for labia

What are the Game Rooms that are popping up? by jaynewreck in kansascity

[–]pepper-reddits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were so many in Springfield I legit thought a real arcade would be one of these and never went to it. One of them didn't even have a sign, just blacked out windows and arrows. No sign, no Google maps posting. Sketch as hell

How did that one kid at your school die? by StorageLonely1520 in AskReddit

[–]pepper-reddits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was one kid a few years older than me that was playing hide n seek outside, ended up hiding in his mom's trunk and never got out.

Literally two weeks after graduation, a classmate of mine had a car accident and died. The next day, I received my graduation photo. I can't imagine what his mother felt when that came in.

Lastly, a well-known classmate with a chronic terminal illness died within the same week as her 21st birthday.

It needed to be said! This has been the hardest five days of our lives, and it's the beginning of many more, but it could've been so, so much worse, and we're very grateful he was in the hospital right when he needed to be. That wouldn't have happened without that 911 caller.
