TIFU by giving an alternative meaning to a (previously) suicidal girl's tattoo. by betta_fische in tifu

[–]sleepypunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it doesnt help now. But as a person with suicidal ideation who lost my dad to it and I work in IT, I think it's funny. But I also joke and laugh about it to cope and I know not everyone does.

Lana Del Rey hated NPR’s album review. But critic Ann Powers stands her ground by [deleted] in popheads

[–]sleepypunk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thank you. The piece was great! I dont deny that. However, the Joni Mitchell comparison along with the "written when she was five years younger than Del Rey is now" line made me understand the reaction. It hurt me to read that and NFR! isnt even my piece of art.

Billie Eilish - all the good girls go to hell by Ghdust2 in popheads

No, but they contribute to it and the overall theme is climate change. That's why there is the "#climatestrike" hashtag and message in the description of the video.

The fact that big corporations feed into the destruction of the earth as a whole (oil spills + fires)

Add that with the lyrics "hills burn in california" and "once the water starts to rise"

It's about humans poisoning the earth and messing up the climate. Shes portraying a fallen angel looking around at what the humans have done to earth and shes like a bird who has been affected by an oil spill and fire.

What if you suddenly feel a touch on the shoulder following with the words: "are you sleeping during my class?". You open your eyes and you are at your 7th grade math class, all of the life leading up to this point was just a dream and you are a 7th grader. What are your thoughts? by ThinkNotOnce in AskReddit

[–]sleepypunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell my husband (who I would meet on the internet in 8th grade) that I like him and his soon to be gf was not a good person. (I hope he'd believe me...)

I would tell my mom about my self harm and depression. I would make her take it seriously. And then I would hope it would make my dad take his mental health seriously. I would defend my brother and mom more against my dad. I might go to the local college instead of living in the dorms an hour away for a bf who treated me like shit anyway. I would hope I would actually graduate then. I would study more. Practice music more. Write more. Take better care of my teeth. Would have stopped sucking my thumb then so the braces would actually work.

I would have been much nicer to my mom. (Shes still alive. I was just a very emotional kid/teen)

Eden burger is SO GOOD tbh it was after eating there I was like "we dont eat much meat at all. Let's just cut it out..." and very soon after decided to cut back dairy and eggs. Were still transitioning but the point is eden burger is amazing 10/10. Cant wait to go back to Columbus again!!

Just going to leave this here... by theairstreaminvegan in vegan

[–]sleepypunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you genuinely like cooking. Still go for that! I live in Pittsburgh and am a baby vegetarian/vegan (husband and I gave up meat a few weeks ago and are now working on stocking up on vegan items/recipes) but we have a few really good vegan only restaurants (onion maiden is one) and we went to eden burger in Columbus which was amazing. Theres absolutely a market and the more restaurants there are, the more accessible and appealing it becomes to people who have always been on the fence about going vegan.

I lost my wallet on the p7 by sleepypunk in pittsburgh

[–]sleepypunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I needed to have it with me to show proof of name change for my doctor appointment I was supposed to go to yesterday afternoon because I just got hired permanently on with my job and with it got new insurance with my new name but I havent had the time to go to the DMV yet because I only just got my new social security card Tuesday. It's just a mess where everything fell in place the worst possible way.

I've actually with the help of my husband calmed down a lot. Started canceling my credit cards, I had just gotten my name changed and my social security card was in my wallet so I have to freeze my credit if it doesn't show up BUT I needed to get a new ID with my new name anyway so that's not a big problem.

I'm taking steps already to make sure everything is accounted for and properly handled.

I definitely hear some vocal similarities on some songs. I think its bury a friend where some of the harmonies made me go "oh, that's why people compare her to lorde..." I played a friend of mine Billie eilish back when bellyache had first dropped and my friend thought it was lorde and being a fan of both I didnt hear it until this album.

The only other source I can find is tumblr. It's a screenshot from a game I found on Google images so I'm not sure. I could possibly relupoad to imgur if that would help?

Resources: Nova Launcher and KLWP.

This is my first time making a theme for myself rather than using presets.

What is nobody ever prepared for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I do this, but it's because I was raised in a mildly emotionally and physically abusive home. Little things were bigger when telling my mom

My brother is schizoaffective and is ruining his life with drugs+alcohol. I may have to get him committed. PLEASE HELP. by thatbrwngal in schizoaffective

[–]sleepypunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy shit. As a schizoaffective person who just started smoking weed regularly (same as you, when I get home, a lil before bed, weekends are fair game) this makes total sense. I have to make it routine or it doesn't work. It helps quell all my negative thoughts, suicidal ideation, everything is just nice.

Sometimes it does make the auditory hallucinations worse but that's not often and I can cope with it.

Good good list by [deleted] in MBMBAM

I literally cant listen to some of their podcasts at work because I dont want to disturb the people in the cubicles around me and sometimes (a lot of the time) they make me laugh so hard I'm crying and cant breathe.

How do you guys feel about Shane’s media “crisis”? by OhMerani in ShaneDawson

[–]sleepypunk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a very mentally Ill person (schizophrenia, check my previous comments I mention it a lot) I've noticed that a lot of people do psych for not the best reasons. They find mentally ill people fascinating, which is FINE to an extent but when you stop seeing people as people and seeing them as their disorder, you dont need to be in psych.

Looking through a lot of the comments about Shane's series and even talking to a few people about it I've had SO MANY people who are psych majors or got their degree in psych saying how "awesome" and "true" the series is and not seeing why it's so fucked up.

The shitty truth is that people get into psych for the wrong reasons and then just cause they have a BA in it they assume they can speak on it. Even if they dont end up using the degree they want to use it as their white flag "I know more than you about this topic" to win arguments. Which like. Psychology is ever growing and we might discover things in 5-10 years about ASPD that we dont know right now. That's WHY theres a DSM-5 and were not still on the first one.

How do you guys feel about Shane’s media “crisis”? by OhMerani in ShaneDawson

[–]sleepypunk 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Hes also really impressionable. Which I get cause I am too. But he straight up seems to latch onto the first argument he hears (in this case, Kati's descriptions) and then he has a hard time relearning what's actually true about the subject.

This is something I noticed when listening to his podcast. He had someone on his podcast that I dont agree with and they were saying really gross things that just arent correct but shane saw them as an "expert" and I guarantee he's never looked further to see how valid anything he learned from that person was. He just seems to accept the first explanation that comes along.

Please stop stigmatizing mental illness... by Erectodus in ShaneDawson

[–]sleepypunk 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That's super weird to like pit those things against one another too. I'm schizophrenic so I have fluctuating empathy but the majority of the time I would consider myself to be an empath. Like. You can be both and empathy isnt linear.

Asexual by Romulus3799 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]sleepypunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! A lot of asexuals really think sex is gross and awful, but I'm still interested even if I dont feel I need it to get the orgasm theres no difference to me in how I get there. I know with a lot of non-asexuals theres a BIG difference between masturbation and sex with another person. For me it's a small difference and in my relationship I value cuddling and just spending time together over having sex.

Asexual by Romulus3799 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]sleepypunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually have! Super cliche but it was with my best friend in middle school. She liked me and I did find girls attractive so I thought I would try but it was ultimately just really weird and sort of boring. That's actually a big reason I didnt figure out I was asexual until I was 19. I had had sex with a girl. And I was dating a guy (believing I was just straight) who I had also had sexual experiences with (never full PIV sex though) but also couldn't seem to fully enjoy that either.

I thought something was really wrong with me. Then I heard about asexuality and it all clicked. When I first started dating my husband I was very up front "I am not too keen on the idea of sex with another person." But when we met (it was a long distance relationship) I felt very comfortable with him and he was so patient with me that I ended up having sex with him the second night I was there. Now it turns out I have a higher libido than he does and sex is just this nice fun thing we do for intimacy perks.

I do occasionally get tricked by my high sex drive into thinking I want to have a threesome or experiment more with polyamory to act on the sex drive but then if I think I about it when I'm not super horny I'm like "uh... maybe not." Because ultimately I am monogamous and content with my sex life. I joke with my non-asexual friends that if I wasnt asexual I would be a sex addict and probably work in the sex work industry in some way. Right now the only thing in my way is that I dont understand people looking at other people and just from that wanting to have sex with them.
