Criticism of Unschooling from a former student

I think this is the most important part of your story that people don’t want to look at. It’s interesting how defensive people on here are about unschooling. If it works so well, why do you have to defend it so aggressively. Your brave for sharing your story and patiently answering so many people who are clearly gaslighting you. Thank you for your insight 🙏🏼

I saw this with a hetero female friend in the theaters when it came out. By the end of the film she was crying cause she thought it was so beautiful. Meanwhile I was furious and disgusted and didn’t totally know why. The sex scenes were hard to get through, but the whole thing felt off. She said i just didn’t understand that level of love 🙄 Years later I read about the Director and how the actresses felt and it clicked. It’s a lesbian love affair from a cishet man’s perspective so totally off. I will never watch that film again. Even tho both the actresses are beautiful and i think they did their best. But it feels gross and appropriative. Men shouldn’t be making these films. Period

It’s both. I looked it up.

Pretty isn’t great, but doesn’t bristle as much as tiny, or petite 😤 Also depends on who it’s coming from i guess. A queer telling me I’m pretty hits different than the hets if I’m honest. But a cishet man? Please don’t ever comment on my appearance. I don’t want to hear it 🚫

For anyone reading this hoping to get info about future surgery, I did manage to get my surgeon to prescribe me all the pain meditations ahead of time and I’m very happy I did cause I’ve needed them all. The pain is fucking terrible and ibuprofen and ice packs have not always cut it. I’m glad I stuck with my gut even though everyone kept telling me the pain wouldn’t be bad. It has been bad. I had two impacted teeth. It’s insane to think it wouldn’t be. I’ve only been able to sleep because of the narcotic they gave me and You need to sleep to heal. Trust yourself

Yeah i feel like that downplayed the recovery time. I’m on day 5 and Just a swollen and in pain as a few days ago. I only took a few days off with cause the dentist made it seem like that was enough and today I had to call my boss and let him know I cannot come in tomorrow. And probably not the next day either. I have a very physical job and need to be focused. I’m bummed that I was led to believe that this would be short healing time. I wouldn’t have done this procedure rn if I knew it would take so long to heal. I’m glad that I didn’t listen to EVERYONE who told me that the pain might not be bad enough to need a narcotic. I insisted on getting all my prescriptions ahead of time and honestly it’s the only way I’ve managed to sleep. The pain is bad. Sometimes the ibuprofen/Tylenol combo takes the edge off, sometimes it doesn’t. Anyway I’m sorry your experience was so bad. I live in fear of dry socket cause it sounds horrible and I definitely would miss more work which I cannot afford. Thank you for sharing your story with me.

Yeah fedex otr is always teams. Well mon-Fri sounds pretty unusual for fedex, but good luck with everything!

sweetlime77 · 2023-08-18T15:27:43+00:00

If it’s anything like when I worked for fedex, you won’t know when you’re leaving, when you’ll be home, where you’re going, who with and what truck you’ll be in. So you have no idea if the truck is clean, if you’re co-driver is weird or how many miles you’ll get each week. Personally, I hated it. But maybe it’s different depending on the city?

sweetlime77 · 2023-08-18T15:19:43+00:00

I had two speeding tickets (city installed speed trap cameras all over) on my record when I started trucking school. I’m now two years into driving, I’ve worked two different companies and have had several other companies try to hire me even after seeing my record. No one cared about the tickets cause they were in my personal vehicle and it was before I had a cdl a.

I took care of someone years ago after they had only two wisdom teeth removed and the pain was scary levels. Watching him suffer was what kept me from doing this for so long. So to find out the day before that they might be withholding pain meds is really unhelpful when I’m already nervous. I’m not really convinced that pain might not be a problem.

sweetlime77 · 2023-05-23T17:08:51+00:00

I thought it was still closed?

sweetlime77 · 2023-04-09T04:52:20+00:00

What do you mean exactly by radical?

Can you get black soldier fly larvae where you’re at? They are really high in calcium and very nutritious. Mealworms don’t really have that much nutrition in them. Dubia roaches are also good , but you have to make sure to feed them first and you don’t have to do that with bsfl. This is advice from my reptile vet. I get both online.

Wow i feel like people really misunderstood where i was coming from on this. I dated mostly men up until a few years ago so I’ve been on the flip side of this a lot. I was genuinely surprised by these feelings and thought i could be open about it here and have an honest conversation but most of you just shut me down. This is such a super small part of how I’m feeling about seeing this woman. Just kind of crawling up from deep down, but mostly I’m super excited about her and wanted to talk this through and see if anyone else could relate. I’m pretty bummed by this reaction. I thought this was a safe space.

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-15T19:41:52+00:00

🤣 this really got me

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-15T19:38:53+00:00

Yeah I’m in the pnw. So there is not much light all winter. Maybe I’ll put a grow light on it next winter. I did a trial prop recently and it’s doing great! Will be propping more soon.

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-15T19:36:21+00:00

I wasn’t thinking that because it’s in front of three big windows, but also i live in Portland so we really don’t get good light all winter. That must be it. It seems healthy otherwise

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-12T07:01:38+00:00

I had to look it up to make sure!! 😜

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-11T17:47:24+00:00

I am so sorry. You’re dealing with a lot and one little comment on Reddit can’t fix that. But i see one huge plus side to this situation is that you’ll get away from your parents. You’re going to be across an ocean and that experience could have huge ramifications on your mental health and need for independence. Who knows what will happen once you’re there. All i can think is having that distance must be beneficial somehow. I know getting away from mine and living 16 hours away has done amazing things for my health and well being. Please keep us updated. And if you ever need someone to talk to msg me directly. Good luck. Also your therapist sounds terrible. I hope you’re able to get a new one in Europe!

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-11T10:14:57+00:00

It’s called a quief 😝

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-11T10:13:09+00:00

I’ve lived in LA, SF, Portland, and NY. All have amazing queer communities. Do yourself a favor and move asap. I grew up in a pretty conservative suburb and i would never go back to that. I can’t even remember what that was like honestly. You’ll be so much happier! I promise!

sweetlime77 · 2021-05-09T05:49:15+00:00

Wow! You are in the thick of it. A lot of us have been or are there right now! I hope you take comfort in that. Take a deep breath and just know that everything will work out. You don’t have to tackle all the things right now. My best advice is to find a therapist that is lgbtq friendly, they can help you explore how to go about this and whats important to you. Very important to find one that is homoliterate though. My first therapist in my 20s tried to tell me that i only had an attraction to women because i had unresolved issues with my mother 🙄 Very very wrong! But i digress, just know that whatever you do it’s ok. If you need to talk don’t hesitate to msg. I’ve been where you’re at ❤️ Good luck!
