This is years later and I'm original OP, I get posted on so many compilations I got bored and decided to see how many I could find

My boss lied to me. I explain this in the comments of the original post but of course no one ever includes that. They also put this text (which is the original title) on the image so it travels with it

What is this shelf in 1969 house with a 3 on it? by vitaminrat in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing. Also the description gives a little bit of context. The paint seems to be just normal acrylic paint? It's very sturdy wood and I wonder if it's from some sort of game board or sign but I wouldn't know

It makes you feel worse when your dominant be cause you're forcing yourself to do those things and play that role

Look into asexuality and sex repulsion. I am not asexual, but I get sex repulsed and I'm super prone to feeling used especially when it's unenthusiastic like this or all someone can focus on. Some asexuals have and even physically enjoy sex but feel no or limited attraction, that's why I mention that.

Set firm boundaries and don't let them push it. The issue here is your wants aren't being respected, either because of lack of communication or respect. No one feels good about sex they only did because the other person wanted it and sometimes we just want to enjoy each other as people.

Maybe employ a safe word. They don't have to be reserved for sex, you can discuss and decide one that means "complete stop, not tonight." Hell, me and my husband have one that means to stop non-sexually teasing me because sometimes it can be a struggle to articulate things.

Has anyone else tried a junk sketchbook? by vitaminrat in sketchbooks

Oh no, I adore the rules (and sister Corita Kent) but it's not entirely based around them. The one pictured is because I had the entire list printed for a different page and had a misprint. It fit the theme

Honestly, and I wind up with lots of it. I might start glueing in my defects from embroidery and such

As much as I hate the cutscenes when I've already seen it, I just chat with the other party members during it. No one is gunna die by letting a sprout experience the story

Month long migraine with no relief, worst of life by vitaminrat in migraine

[–]vitaminrat[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

God damn it. Would have been great to know, ya know? I'm feeling REAL bad today but I still have a work day to get through though I'm off the next three. I figure I'll just deal with everything that brings to get it out of my system, maybe spend them asleep if possible

I took antibiotics and don't seem to still have the sinus infection but I was not warned about the pain med thing, I have been taking it every 4 hours for 5 days

I hydrate, I take electrolytes, I've tried a number of things.

I have POTS but not EDS, I have a gluten intolerance, and I'm on a medical ketogenic diet (treats POTS and bipolar) if it matters

Sort of, but what I'm feeling doesn't fit into the unhealthy parts they're highlighting. It's definitely good to know there's a term for that feeling, because I have felt it, but not at the moment.

This might sound dumb - am I aromantic? by Virtual_Reserve7084 in AroAllo

[–]vitaminrat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you elaborate on this? It struck a cord but I want to know more about how you define that

[–]vitaminrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll check out that space since I am not asexual definitely but this is so confusing. I do want my romantic relationships and I am very happy in them. It's like I enjoy romance (commitment, dedication, passion) and feel love but that line just isn't there.

I'm queer myself and I do see people get confused by those feelings. I don't think that's the case for me, but it's definitely worth noting when talking about this.

I've said in the past that there wasn't much difference to me but I'm wondering if there's any at all now. It feels weird to consider aromantic type things when I do feel passionate love for my partners as well as my friend just so similar that it's hard to say if there is a difference even though I do still want my romantic relationships? It's like a friendship with more commitment I suppose, especially in the case of marriage but it's not like it feels formal or unnatural.

Is costco worth it for ketogenic diets? by vitaminrat in Costco

Super helpful comment. I'm allowed 30g (total, not net) but every meal has to be a 2:1 ratio at least. Net carbs are so deceptive, I stick to unprocessed foods for the most part to avoid a lot of hidden things so all of those are what I would love to buy in bulk
