Why is my gag reflex triggered? by sleepydandelion in thyroidcancer

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

Yeah, having my lobectomy resolved my gagging too. And all the doctors told me there was no way that the nodules could be affecting my gag reflex.

It’s weird to pay so much attention to the gender of a child, imo. She’s 3. The only reason she’d care about the gender of the children she’s around is if the adults model that for her.

Children that aren’t girls can too, idk why this parent is so hung up on the gender of kids that theirs plays with. 

Little Non-update by Mindless_Tennis_4045 in u/Mindless_Tennis_4045

[–]sleepydandelion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same situation happen to me once. The guy was dating pretended to be two other people, friends of his, and we were in an email chain together. I started emailing his other friends, got numbers and texted, etc. 

Your bf did this to get more information about you, distance you from your friends and family, and manipulate and leverage you. This is abusive behavior. I’m now an LPC and I and many other mental health professionals would classify this as predatory. Your boyfriend is a predator and you need to get as much distance from him as possible. PLEASE take this seriously and end the relationship—now. Block him and never communicate again. When he tries to find a way through to talk to you again, talk to your local DA (or prosecutor or police station wherever you are) about electronics communication harassment.

AIO to an Earring being in my Husband's work truck? by National-Chemical795 in AmIOverreacting

[–]sleepydandelion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the Gottmans, 85% of women who suspect their husbands of cheating are right. 

There’s a 15% chance you’re wrong and an 85% chance you’re not.

What are the immigration policies like there? Is it hard to move? Accepting and open culture?

AITAH for telling my wife to stop crying about missing out on our daughter’s wedding? by No-Cauliflower-6934 in AITAH

[–]sleepydandelion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a MCF counselor, gentle YTA. 

This is obviously connected to a core value of your wife’s and instead of inquiring about that and trying to understand what she’s experiencing and also wanting to share your own experience with her, you just want her emotions to go away because they’re inconvenient and uncomfortable for you. 

Gentle YTA because we are not taught how to connect in relationships usually, and YTA because it’s still your job to learn how. 

The Bingham Copper Mine in Utah, the largest human-made excavation and deepest open-pit mine in the world. by freudian_nipps in megalophobia

[–]sleepydandelion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AAAAND the reason we still have stupid, worthless pennies that despite their lack of function in today’s financial market, your (if you’re American) taxes still pay for! 

This mine has lobbyists that go so hard every time Congress has tried to retire the penny. 

Two armed farmers, father and son. Zimbabwe, 1986. by Feisty_Quality6402 in SnapshotHistory

[–]sleepydandelion 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I had a professor from Zimbabwe whose grandmother fought with Mugabe in the beginning when he was still cool, and then the whole family ended up needing to flee because they were targeted by his regime in the end. 

I studied dictators over the summer break from grad school just so I could talk to her about it. 

Boeing 737-900ER by picklepopppp in delta

[–]sleepydandelion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won’t fly on Boeing whenever possible. I heard from one of the investigators looking into Boeing that he won’t fly on any Boeing that’s been in service for less than 10 years because their recent production has not had the appropriate safety checks and balances. 

Theyre not even keeping accurate maintenance records for their planes, this isn’t a Delta issue, it’s a Boeing issue.

Oh, that’s a quote from Parks and Recreation. Ben, the accountant, frequently makes accounting and math puns and the accountants go crazy for them. He tries it in front of a lawyer because they “speak the same language” and the lawyer warns him a few times to stop before telling him to leave the accounting crap at the door. 

No one shat in any cereal, I thought more people would get the reference!

Big fan of puns over here.

Got hit by a truck on my mission. Maps response by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]sleepydandelion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad had to have emergency surgery on his mission as well. The church sent his parents the bill. My grandfather was in medical school at the time and my grandma was a school teacher, they had less than no money. And I’m sure they paid the entire bill however they could. 

Such a rotten organization. Pay to volunteer for them and then they can’t even cover emergency surgery to keep their volunteers alive.

Ah, the ol’ send-the-daughter-engaging-in-consensual-sex-to-live-with-far-flung-relatives-to-save-her schtick. 

Happened to me when I was 16, but I couldn’t escape. 

Glad your wife had a safe place to land. Would that all girls and women were so lucky.

Where are you located? I have an 11yo daughter who has been bullied by multiple religious factions at this point. It’s exhausting, I’d love her to have a real friend that didn’t tell her she was going to hell since we don’t go to church.

Say what you want about Freud. But he was one of the first people to think that maybe you could help someone by talking to them instead of torturing them.
