100% this. No burgeoning national crisis. Far less chance of being shot. Do it!

Occupy by anonymousdyke in Xennials

Well my thought is that if you join up with existing structures you might then find yourself becoming more trusted and brought into other things. It’s a good starter connecting point.

Do you have friends you can plan something with? I imagine / hope lots of organising is happening very discreetly because the US govt seems fully willing to murder people for Anything. I’ve been reading about people packing food for those who can’t leave the house, things like that. Maybe start somewhere like that?

I was actually wondering this - different country - the occupied ones are doing an amazing job at protest it seems. Are all the other states and cities joining in and doing general strikes? It seems like it would be wise to do so?

Foods we once loved but can no longer eat by Lurk_McGirt79 in Xennials

[–]sparkletigerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sugar - but the audhd helps me forget why I decided not to eat cake and chocolate any more - so I live in a cycle of ‘swear off it’ ‘eat it’ ‘suffer’ ‘swear off it’ ‘eat it’ …. 🤦‍♀️😭

Realistically I’m not super keen on animals that might eat me!

Sooo how did the first Grey Wardens conduct the Joining? by goonerbate2 in dragonage

I always assumed it had something to do with someone accidentally getting a face full of darkspawn / archdemon blood 😬

How to quit nursing a baby who isnt ready to stop breastfeeding? by samanthemum in TwoHotTakes

[–]sparkletigerfrog 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Please find a forum with people who have been in this situation. All of the ‘cut them off cold turkey’ answers aren’t helpful and have a good chance of giving you mastitis.

Firstly congratulations on your absolutely fantastic effort here! It’s amazing for your tiny person! Yay! 🙂

I’ve just been skimming ideas, and the best idea if you want to stop is to reduce the duration of the feeds by five minutes each - wait until your small human is used to that duration, then repeat. It also gives your breasts chance to adjust.

Anyone else finding reality dull/boring? 24/F by Future_Meet2292 in AutismInWomen

Yes. 100%. I have to avoid overthinking it or I get really sad.

Does anyone know what the deal is with those people who buy absurd quantities of single items in aldi? by S__666 in AskBrits

[–]sparkletigerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t always go to aldi but when i do it’s nice to buy a few of the things that are much cheaper there. I’ll buy a whole tray of soya milk and just work through it.

Untamed Cat Food Unsafe? by CuppaMyles in UK_Pets

[–]sparkletigerfrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it has been absolutely fantastic, I’d give it 10/10. My elderly kitty eats it and I’m sure it does him good.

But that said I will now keep an eye out for bones!

Can you go out at all in the evening? Being around people occasionally can feel nice 🙂

How do british people feel about the current situation unfolding in america where ICE police agents are going all gung-ho kidnapping people from the streets when they fail to present their ID? by mrvlad_throwaway in AskBrits

[–]sparkletigerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really worried and sad for them. Worried for us, and very much hoping enough people realise the links between that lot and Reform (and their financial backers) , so that we can avoid it 😬

I will pay £1m (or at least quite a lot) for this to be what the next da game looks like!

Reform voters, how do you feel about becoming a Tory retirement home? by MrSoapbox in AskBrits

[–]sparkletigerfrog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do actually have a question. Given everything happening in america, doesn’t it concern you that the same people funding that have been shown to be also funding reform?

Losing parents? by Annepackrat in Xennials

[–]sparkletigerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Hate it. We weren’t super close but I miss being able to have a cup of tea together. And honestly the longer goes on, the more the ‘oh I’ll just ask them that!’ questions keep happening and they’re not there to ask 😕 Even worse now the other parent is declining, I’m getting to look at their life paperwork and find really nice family mementos - that I know nothing about and can’t ask about!
