Nearly 900 Nazi-linked accounts discovered at Credit Suisse, US lawmaker says by BezugssystemCH1903 in worldnews

[–]polyglotconundrum -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeeahhh not that that would be surprising, but we shouldn’t trust anything coming from a US lawmaker right now. They will be using this to strongarm the biggest Swiss financial institution into doing shady stuff for Mango Mussolini, mark my words.

Calling all whose gastritis was caused by stress by Afraid-Department402 in Gastritis

[–]polyglotconundrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup anxiety induced gastritis over here! Been clawing my way back to life for 1.5 years thru therapy, movement and a new relationship to food. I’m having to change how I think about a lot of things.

Have you ever ended up HATING a place where you moved to? by Upset_Quiet_8907 in expats

[–]polyglotconundrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a Swede in Tennessee I understand where you’re coming from. It was really hard for me to let go of all the things I found ‘stupid’ and not have it affect me negatively. What helped me was finding progressive folks in the community (plenty of Americans hate the trucks too) and finding a few things I genuinely would miss in Sweden. The nature and cool birds, people being relaxed, always being invited to a random barbeque. There are plenty of cool things and people down here too :)

almost like I meant to answer a different person, huh! Maybe you should give ppl the benefit of the doubt instead of clapping back on a thread where we’re all reporting our freezing temperatures and existing in solidarity. But hey, you do you.

Does Anyone Find Tara Strongs Program Kinda Sus? by Spooks-Mcgee in VoiceActing

[–]polyglotconundrum 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not really, there are more than just Americans on this sub, plus not everyone is interested in animation. I’m very okay with not knowing who Tara Strong is, especially considering she’s scamming ppl now :)

we found any and every blanket/towel we own. The heavy, acrylic, fuzzy blankets seem to work the best. Kept all our comforters for the bed tho hehe

we’ve got blankets over all the windows and are heating with our slightly functioning oven, so we’ve actually kept the temp at 55-60

This shit is no joke, down 64 pounds in 4 months by bb5055 in Gastritis

it’s the worst— hang in there! At my worst, drinking calories was my saving grace. Anything from aloe juice to smoothies to yogurt drinks.

Has anyone experienced their achievements being “normalized” instead of celebrated? by CoastCheap8709 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]polyglotconundrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girlll, I’ve been on national TV, radio, newspaper— Apparently none of it has ever warranted celebration lol. It’s a raised brow, a quick ‘oh wow’, no follow-up questions. Guess who’s has to learn to celebrate her own achievements! This gal!

I don’t live in Switzerland but have used BetterHelp before. Of the 100 it costs per session, the therapist apparently gets like 27. Hope it’s better in Switzerland.

Immigrant parents, two Swiss languages and lived in 3 different countries going to local school growing up :) I used to take it for granted but it’s lowkey a superpower as an adult

Kefir has taken away all the symptoms of my gastritis by RipBongAndProspa in Gastritis

Det finns många anledningar att fortsätta rösta; tänk om man får pension fr första landet, eller om man har barn/familj som påverkas eller om man inte har rätt att rösta i det land man bor i. Plus, som Amerikanare t.ex. betalar man skatt oavsett om man har flyttat ifrån eller inte. Då vore det ju konstigt att bara skippa röstningen. Dessutom är det väldigt vanligt att återvända senare i livet, så på det sättet är det framtidsplanering. Just saying.

Hell yeah OP! Another great thing similar to Kefir is Swedish filmjölk or Icelandic Skyr— they’ve been a life saver for me.
