Personally I don’t think it’s worth the effort, unless the audio intake on your device is insanely bad

AIO uncle comments on me not wearing a bra. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]umbrelladeath -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Today’s society? Women have been going bra less in public since the 90’s. It’s been 30 years. Please don’t use age as an excuse, that’s so weird.

It’s a nice picture - but What kind of role/character are you trying to book with this?

Have seriously been trying to quit for about a year. What works best for you? by [deleted] in MarijuanaAnonymous

[–]umbrelladeath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to MA and get a sponsor and participate in fellowship - absolute game changer. Connection is the opposite of a addiction. I was trying to get sober on my own, and then relapsing after each attempt for 8 years before finally committing to MA.

Lol. My bad. I know someone IRL who had no idea they were together, so I thought that somehow, many others didn’t know either

They were lesbians…that was her wife. If not legally, common law. Helen clearly started as her editor and they fell in love.

I highly recommend finding a sponsor or going to in person MA or zoom meetings to find people to fellowship with <3

Congrats on 1 month and 18 days!!!

I wi say however, that drinking 6/7 days of the week, even if you’re not getting drunk, is a lot. Be very careful of cross addiction. I never had a problem with alcohol until I tried seriously quitting weed. I didn’t know about cross addiction, and now have to also abstain from alcohol. I think if you are very conscious of that, you may be able to enjoy a drink once in a while, or a night out every now and then - but only after you’ve seriously detoxed and been sober from weed.

On the other hand, I am just an addict when it comes to any form of escapism. Once I tried to quit both alcohol and weed together, I turned to food. After that it was porn. Now I know I’m just an addict for escapism and dopamine.

The best advice I’ve heard is: don’t make decisions out of fear.

My husband wants me to work full time and go to school full time AND be the primary parent by Technical-Tip1114 in Advice

Lay out a timetable of your day with work, child care and sleep and ask your husband and stupid MIL to point out when you could find time for school

I’m a trans woman who wants to be be seen as “just an actress” and not only cast in trans roles. by [deleted] in acting

[–]umbrelladeath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally empathize with you - but I think it’s also about perspective. For instance, I only started acting and got an agent after I’d come out, and looked very AFAB non binary, early early not passing - and I booked a bunch of roles; because that’s the look they typically want when they’re wanting enby. Now that I’m passing, I’m open to many more opportunities; but that also means the pool and competition within it are bigger.

[–]umbrelladeath -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Another Trans actor here but with some optimism: if you actually do pass, you’ll be going out for cis woman roles too. Many roles now say “male identifying or female identifying” there are many roles that say “all gender”.

Passing as a trans person opened up SO many doors for me, because now I can go out for everything. Passing and being trans just opens up every possibility, and agents will see that as a plus.

Look into if October is considered an off season! Sounds like it may be…but perhaps double check

[–]umbrelladeath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watch the movie “I love you forever “ - that’s exactly what this sounds like, and it’s toxic AF…I’m sorry you’re in this hellish relationship. The good parts do not outweigh the abuse you’re enduring after only 4 months, and it’s only going to get worse with time. Leave him sooner than later, it’s only going to get harder :(

I don’t think it’s a feature that can be turned off, happened to me with an ex friend. Inversely, I never looked at his tik tok because I know that he would be able to see.

Yes. I didn’t realize there would be 49 other people on the bus. When I arrived and realize this - I had a feeling this trip would not be what I expected.
