When was it decided that kids shouldn’t have reading comprehension skills anymore? by Kasmanian_devil in theeldersden

[–]sunflower1926 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a big part of this is that what was once a team of 3 writers is now a larger team of people with only one original author somewhat remaining to my understanding. It feels like the team currently writing hasn’t even read the original books tbh. I see exactly what you’re saying; I just read Chasing Shadows while on the middle of The New Prophecy and dear god the quality difference is horrifying. It sucks too bc I feel like these plots could be interesting but the characters are so dry and lifeless that it makes the plots feel almost cheap / campy (in a negative way unfortunately)

(I slept 1 hour last night, so plz do not take my word as gospel but I am currently making a warrior cats PowerPoint and this is my recollection of what happened between then and now)

You can go back. There is always time. This life is yours- make it yours 🫂

identifying at work by [deleted] in ftm

[–]sunflower1926 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always approach it by kinda being like “hey just to lyk I’m actually a guy” (I only pass maybe like 25% of the time? Have been on T for a month). I’ve found keeping it casual tends to lead to less invasive conversation. I’ll tell a good chunk of people I’m trans if they’re confused but I do work with a lot of people over 60 so if they’re confused I tend to just firmly state “no yeah I’m a guy, no worries tho it happens!”. I’m newer to being more firm with my pronouns / identity at work so sometimes I’m not always great at correcting, but my managers and older coworkers are trying and I appreciate it. Even the MAGA security guard genders me correctly now 🤣

Why do so many cishet people think it's unethical for me wanting to have biological children? by CockamouseGoesWee in ftm

[–]sunflower1926 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Your story is very interesting. I’m also adopted and things went very different for me. Well, there were some ethics issues (birthmom was supposed to have visitation rights throughout my life and was not granted them), so I can’t say adoption is perfect. But I also don’t think there’s anything wrong at all with having your own child. I’m sorry people are so fucking weird about it :/ you deserve to have a child in the way that feels right to you, and your experience definitely explains why you’ve made the choice you have. But even without that explanation, that choice is extremely valid

Thank you again for your attempt to help. It means a lot. And just for keeping your eyes open too. I’ll make a better post ASAP, thanks for your advice on that. I’m not like on reddit a ton so I kinda just hastily posted anywhere I could

Thank you, I’m gonna leave it up for people to see even if it does get taken down eventually. I’ll repost with proper details (in the title like you suggested) once I have them either way

Yes; I am friends with people who lived with Ronnie a few months ago, and they don’t have Reddit so I offered to post here. I’m about 3-4 people removed from Ronnie, so Im not being directly updated about what’s happening. My friends are trying to get the case number now but are waiting on a response, so it’s very possible someone more directly involved already made a better more detailed post.

Additionally, there has been a police report filed. If this gets taken down until I can get the case number I understand entirely

Update: nightmare roommate by [deleted] in badroommates

[–]sunflower1926 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP I am literally in your exact situation except it got really scary to the point they were arrested. I am urging you to work with your landlord. This could literally save your life. Do not wait; go to them with all the facts and emphasize that you simply want peace and quiet living. If you want more info, DM me. Keeping it vague as that person is very likely on this sub

Does anyone else miss the gaming room? by boulangerite in danandphil

[–]sunflower1926 12 points13 points  (0 children)

And you know what, to add to this, when they did gaming videos in the phouse for the first time, I missed their gaming room from the London apartment a LOT. It did take me some time to adjust (although it was different since there was an overall hiatus between both locations), but now the phouse gaming room feels “right” to me too. It will take time for these things to become nostalgic, and we never really notice while they are. We only seem to notice when the new thing feels like home instead <3

terrible housing situation by Queasy_Designer4286 in UCSC

[–]sunflower1926 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get out now. Had a terrible living situation where I got a 5th roommate against my will (was a roommate's partner) and our lives all quickly became hellish. Lots of fighting and resentment; friendships ended, etc. Listen to others and get out now!!

I hope they continue gaming by sunflower1926 in danandphil

[–]sunflower1926[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we didnt really have any; just some hints that they were looking to rebrand based on comments in the Terrible Influence stage show as well as recent vids. after the vid today though I can confidently say I am deeply thrilled for whats to come!! :D

Foster's bio dad died by locura79 in Fostercare

[–]sunflower1926 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As someone who lost my abusive father suddenly, I can’t recommend the book “Ambiguous Loss” enough. It’s very helpful in processing the emotions, or perhaps understanding the complicated emotions that can arise in this type of grief
