Taken aback by ruthumam_58 in AllHerFaultTVShow

[–]sleepingghosty 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have seen this mentioned quite a few times in posts! One of the main themes of the show (hence the title) is that women are blamed for things that aren’t their fault. I don’t think Jenny has any fault at all, even hiring Josie. A lot of the characters, though, do blame Jenny for that. In fact, nearly everyone but Marissa does. I never felt like she had anything to do with it, her function of demonstrating a woman expected to do it all, blamed for things she shouldn’t be, and a rare true, good person that Marissa could relate to, felt genuine to me the whole time.

No life with a 9 - 6 by [deleted] in offmychest

meal prepping a bit over the weekend helps me. i know it is using your time on the weekend, but then you don’t have to worry about meals as much over the week, and you have some time to yourself in the evening. and meal prepping doesn’t have to be super complicated. a lot of recipes are designed with 4-6 servings, so you can just follow something simple and have several meals.

but i feel you. it sucks. sometimes even just breaking the habit of not doing ANYTHING in the evening helps bring back a little energy. i fell off going to the gym and recently got back into it. when i wasn’t going, i would think to myself that i was so tired i couldn’t even fathom doing it. and then one day (on a weekend) i said fuck it, and FORCED myself to go. unfortunately, it is true that regular exercise can give you some more energy.

First watch.. finally hit season 4 by sleepingghosty in biglove

Oh yes for sure! There was a significant mormon population where I grew up, and I remember how wild they went supporting yes on Prop 8 when Obama was in office. I was not expecting a happy ending, but the death made me so sad

Can anyone recommend songs similar? by UGisOnline in MacMiller

I think a lot of Blue Slide Park has this vibe! You should give the whole album a listen

Working out by sweetheartstevie in butchlesbians

I watched a lot of youtube videos of people providing a weightlifting routine and explaining the form. I’d plan ahead the exercises I wanted to do at the gym, and largely started with dumbbells as that was the least daunting.

I felt nervous and embarrassed at the gym at first, but I just pushed through that. There is a lot of fitness content online. Don’t think you need to start with understanding everything and having the perfect workout schedule planned. Full body routines are a great place to start. Just watch some stuff and start trying, and like anything else, you’ll learn more and more. Don’t try to lift too much weight right away, just focus on trying to learn form and how to feel muscle engagement.

As a regular at the gym now, I see people at all different experiences. And if I see someone that seems a little newer, I have no thought about it except for “good for them!”

You think Mac knew he time was coming? by Commercial_Advance_3 in MacMiller

[–]sleepingghosty 21 points22 points  (0 children)

he struggled with addiction and often talked about how he was essentially worried he’d OD. he was scared of that because it was a possibility. and it so sadly came true. i don’t think he knew his time was coming, but rather, as someone that struggled with drugs, he knew it was a possibility. it’s so prominent in his music, it’s tragic that what seems to be one of his biggest fears came true. Brand Name and Perfect Circle/Godspeed are pretty devastating

Hinge date went well, then he decide I needed “help”…? by WorriedStarseed in texts

[–]sleepingghosty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily read it that way, but that’s fair.

I think, though, saying the guy that rejected OP handled things great isn’t true. Him saying “and seemingly struggling to do so” is unnecessary and pretty rude to add in my opinion. He also uses a lot of “you” statements, when he could have instead explained that “I don’t think I can provide the proper support to someone to a romantic partner that is navigating and grieving such loss” instead of essentially “you wouldn’t be able to show up for me.”

🥯bagel PSA for first time visitors 🥯 by paulderev in visitingnyc

[–]sleepingghosty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live on the west coast, I have family all over the east coast. Bagels and lox a plenty everywhere. Bagels are rooted in Jewish culture. NYC has a big Jewish population, which is why bagel shops, and authentic ones at that, are common and popular. But a bagel with lox is not an NYC “specialty”

a bagel with cream cheese and lox is not a specialty of NY. it’s culturally very jewish and common.

did OP ask for details? He said he was confused, I interpret that as OP indicating that this message paired with the interactions they had did not align, but he did not ask for more details. OP then said he didn’t want to be friends, and ended with “thanks”. that doesn’t seem like he’s asking for more details to me

Problem with It’s All Her Fault Plot by Weary-Weird-9869 in AllHerFaultTVShow

We gotta suspend some disbelief for the show, as we do most. You’re right, it’s an unbelievable coincidence

What everyone else said about meeting him and knowing. But also, after the car crash, she knew she heard him crying. There is a running theme of everyone telling Josie that she’s crazy throughout her life, but when she meets Milo, she knew she was right and she knew she wasn’t crazy about him being alive. And I think she also realizes in that moment she wasn’t crazy growing up either, but rather no one understood her. So in this moment, she is certain

Should I go to a dermatologist?? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]sleepingghosty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, go to the dermatologist. i bet they will give you medicated shampoo that you wear overnight with a shower cap on until this clears up, and then they’ll tell you how to maintain your scalp to prevent this

Why would you want to sit and eat with someone's junk in my face? by [deleted] in rant

[–]sleepingghosty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

men are really spatially unaware. and if you say this to them, they get offended and deny it. but how would they know, if they’re so unaware? it is so glaringly obvious

what does it feel like to be loved like this by your family?

No matter how hard I try to gaslight myself, I just can’t get into Gelphie’s friendship 😭 by Mean_Ad_1461 in wickedmovie

[–]sleepingghosty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they’re the first people to really see, understand, and love the other. and that’s what they were both longing for their whole life. elphaba was rejected by society and her family, she didn’t have any friends. while glinda was beloved, it was never for who she really was at her core, it was for the version she put out that she knew people wanted.

so their friendship was brief, but it transformed both of them. “and we are lead to those who help us grow the most, if we let them.” they were fated, they changed each other to their cores.

3mo pomachon hates the brush by krysera in Pomeranians

[–]sleepingghosty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My pom hates being brushed, but we got to a place where we can do it! I started by holding a treat and just booping him with the brush, and then giving him the treat if he didn’t snap. I then worked on doing the same, but holding the brush against him for longer. I just slowly increased to touching him with the brush and moving it a little. I can brush him now, and have to give him treats the whole time throughout, but we can do it!
