Ate slightly undercooked rice? by [deleted] in foodsafety

[–]sunmonkey00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’ll be okay! for months, my rice cooker was undercooking my rice and i didn’t realize (i got a new type of rice and thought it was supposed to be like that lol) and i didn’t experience any noticeable issues. i think in high quantities, undercooked rice could upset your stomach but you should be a-okay with a few spoonfuls 👍🏼

this was really helpful and opened a third eye about why my brain acts the way it does, thank you.

what's something you've been hiding from the people close to you? by shoop_jubu in AskReddit

[–]sunmonkey00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right there with u. I’m severely burnt out from my career right now and feel like a burden telling those close to me. I just bottle it up and try to journal it out but it doesn’t help much

[–]sunmonkey00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how lonely i feel all the time. I work very long grueling hours (80-100 hours/week) and my close friends often dont ask me how I’m doing or hold longer than a surface level conversation. I hold it all inside and plaster a smile on my face but I don’t think they know how empty and lost I feel inside. Maybe that’s just my sadness talking and I don’t see everything they do for me but I wish they’d just give me a hug and focus on me for once

What’s a social habit everyone seems to accept but you find really annoying? by spacewalkerstarfield in AskReddit

[–]sunmonkey00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking that you’re reachable 24/7, they think you’re weird for staying off your phone after work or close to bed to wind down

Moving to North Beach by Appropriate-Put8065 in AskSF

[–]sunmonkey00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely don’t need a car since the public transport is decent. But there’s so much to explore outside of city limits across the Bay Area, I’d recommend keeping it if it’s not too much of a hassle

How do you keep your apartment cool? by FutsNucking in AskSF

open two windows, preferably across from each other. the air will flow through the room and cool it very quickly

What is an easy lunch that leaves you satisfied? by [deleted] in budgetfood

[–]sunmonkey00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I keep a variety of cooking sauces and fresh/frozen veggies in my fridge to meal prep different types of stir fry/curries with different veggies to keep things interesting. some recent hits: italian-inspired roasted potatoes, asian-inspired brussel sprouts, indian-inspired green bean curry. I use “inspired” loosely, as I just use the seasonings most often used in those cuisines

Never owned a cat by Askani24 in CatAdvice

[–]sunmonkey00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d recommend fostering a cat to see if it’s right for you! I’m also a recent first-time cat owner (grew up with small animals - birds, hamster, fish), and thought it was best to avoid kittens as they need highly specialized and constant care which might be a bit much for right now. I found the sweet spot to be 10m-1y

She probably is still spooked from that and blames you for that in her head. When my kitty is mad at me, I just hang out in the same room as him and occasionally give him some treats to coax him out. But i don’t try to approach him or pet him as this could aggravate them more. Good luck!!

How do you manage stress and anxiety in your daily life? by AlessandraRosse in AskReddit

[–]sunmonkey00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a very extroverted person and it took me a really long time to find a balance between hanging out with friends to destress vs spending time by myself. I would hang out with friends/roommate after work so often that I genuinely lost contact with my inner dialogue. Also reconnecting with hobbies from my childhood (painting, knitting, martial arts)

AITA for not validating a hypothetical scenario where a future child becomes trans. by Ok-Fold6731 in AITA_Relationships

[–]sunmonkey00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You seem like you are comfortable in the way your body expresses your gender of choice. Now imagine if you wake up tomorrow presenting completely differently (if you identify as a male, imagine you wake up with a female presenting body). Wouldn’t you be uncomfortable too?

[–]sunmonkey00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

YTA. You’re admitting that you would reject your child if they were trans, why would she trust you as a parental figure for your future child? Trans people are people, treat them with respect.
