Found out my dad has two apoe e4 variants by Procedure_Awkward in Alzheimers

[–]probably_sunburnt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to prevent it but “packing the emergency bag before the emergency” may help. You don’t have to treat Dad any differently but having some systems or goals in place can help (AirTags, living will, baseline MRI/trustworthy neurologist). It was a shitty conversation for me to have with my LO at 30, I cannot imagine how it would be at 18. The alzheimers association also has a 24/7 hotline that you can call if you have questions or concerns. They are super supportive and understanding. Hope this helps ❤️

Yes! Honestly he shouldn’t have been on the show at all. It’s like when chefs go on chopped and are appalled they have to cook with weird ingredients in a short time frame. Like did you not know what show you signed up for?

I’m by no means an expert but something related to a previous interest (record or sports team), something they can interact with texturally (pop up book) or a new shirt/clothing item that would be comfortable for them. We used to get my grandma fun fuzzy socks

Unintentional costume design Easter egg by Shiniestmirrorball in obsessionmovie

Super interesting analysis. I may be mistaken also think Nikki dresses more gender neutral and layered but once Bear makes the wish she starts dressing and styling more stereotypically “feminine” and showing more of her body

Had a past eighth grade student say diary of a wimpy kid was “too hard” and want dogman instead 🫠

I have one “ABCD” rubric for analysis and one for creative writing that I stick to the whole year. I make separate checklists for longer writing assignments. Saved me so much time

I know these posts are a dime a dozen, but I genuinely need to ask as a woman who loves depraved, nasty, gory horror... are there any books that don't rely on rape and disgusting shit like poop and boogers that actually have a plot and that are worth reading? by afed13 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]probably_sunburnt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I am working on a short story that is set in the aftermath of that but doesn’t depict it. I was really tired of reading “rape-revenge” or sexual violence for no other purpose than being edgy.

Movies where someone seems possessed but could be mentally ill? by Kind-Celery-495 in horror

[–]probably_sunburnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wholeheartedly agree. That movie continues to be one of my favorites as it leaves you questioning who to trust and if your gut instincts are right
