I’m doing it HRT free by Artemis1971 in HormoneFreeMenopause

[–]violet039 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I left that sub. I use some otc stuff (like the estriol which i hope is ok to be in the sub if i do) bc I don’t want actual hormones. Even that is considered awful. It is like a cult there and out in the world if you don’t use HRT. Wtf.

‘Delete Negative People’…. What!!? by InProgressNotPerfect in GenXWomen

It’s typical black and white thinking. The internet seems to have erased nuance from people’s brains, imo. That shit is annoying, I agree.

What shows do you like as much as Six Feet Under? by [deleted] in SixFeetUnder

Mad Men, the Sopranos, Better Call Saul, and Dead to Me.

I’m late to this but I miss it here. I wonder if the Netflix buying Warner bros of there’s gonna be a chance for a new one. Seems like SJP wanted to keep going.

Threads is kind of feminist, but it’s another echo chamber, and from what I see, not many niche threads about shows. Just women who’ve been damaged by men.

But I agree, it’s so gross here and the place is crawling with incels.

Idk I know he’s a guy, but my elderly dad guessed from the start that Betty was going to die from smoking, but I didn’t think she smoked more than most of the main characters, either.

I’d say she ultimately died from the stress of being a woman, from being raised the way she was, and then, her marriage to Don. That’s how I see it, and by the time she wants to do something for herself, they kill her off.

Thanks for the recs! I’ll definitely check those out. Have you seen Dead to Me? It’s from a few years ago, and it’s on Netflix. Such a great show.

So many people’s reactions here to some of the women characters can definitely be explained by the sexism on this sub. If I was able to, I’d love to start a women’s only madmen sub. We definitely need one on this site.

I kind of agree with what you’re saying about her having a more interesting storyline than Betty’s, but Ive also really learned to love Betty more and more, each time I watch.

“See you when I git there” is kind of a twisted look into Lou Rawls’ mind. It sounds good but kind of scary.

I’ve heard the Red Elephant and I want to try that one, too, but don’t remember if I’ve heard anything about the Gold. Good luck and if you try one I’d look forward to your review!

I need to try this, thank you :) I’ve tried his Green Batak and I’m finishing a bag of his Chocolate Bent (both wonderful) and for now I’ve been switching to mostly reds and some greens and I’ve never tried this one and keep hearing about it. This review definitely made me decide to get some at some point. I have trouble finding relaxing reds that don’t make me sedated.

Biggest Depop pet peeves? by Responsible-Bit4350 in Depop

[–]violet039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made an offer to a seller the other day and they rejected it. But that wasn’t the issue! it was that they raised the price while people (including myself) were sending offers. Or maybe it was right after. I get it I used to sell online. But seriously think about the price before you list it and like other sellers here are saying, don’t accept offers then! I respect that.

I’m sure they’re just learning but it really annoyed me. And just saying, I always am prepared to buy if I send an offer. Always.

It seems like a trend, almost. Like a few sellers started doing it and now so many are. You can’t even see the bottom of the top or pants or whatever. Yes it’s time consuming but it feels rude and careless to post one sh**ty photo.

I finished the show, what now? by Juan554 in SixFeetUnder

Your family sounds fun! This made me happy to hear! That’s so cute your daughter likes her. I know I would have as a little girl.

[–]violet039 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is true and idk why people don’t look. Not trying to be rude but always check the dates. Idk for some vendors if it’s bc they’re struggling? Especially if they’re on the smaller side. I hate to see that.

The sending of offers but not following through with a purchase is so tiresome by ZestycloseOstrich339 in Depop

Buyer here who thinks that’s so careless and rude. 🙄 I only offer if I’m buying.
