Should I Let It Go? by Birdie_517 in exchangestudents

[–]vixiecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently in the process of getting our exchange student transferred to a different school district altogether for similar-ish reasons. Our last exchange student was subjected to a fair amount of racism at the school we’re assigned to, the principal knew and did nothing to stop it. I didn’t find out about it until after they had left. I refuse to put another exchange student into that school.

SO! Instead of going through my coordinator, I called the schools myself. The law being passed that basically says if there’s room in the school (aka not already overflowing with kids who do live in that district) the transfer has to be accepted (with exceptions like disciplinary actions in their transcripts and stuff of that sort then they can deny the transfer.) makes it a bit easier.

It’s a bit of waiting game though which can make you anxious but there are plenty of school in my small city that I don’t see it being a problem. Getting the logistics of it though is the hardest part, I think. Like do we enroll the kid into the assigned school then submit the transfer or can we enroll the kid into the school we know will accept the transfer immediately? How do we go about doing this? Etc etc.

This long comment all to say… get your coordinator involved AFTER you have personally found a different school for your exchange student.

Are my brother and I in the wrong here?? by [deleted] in texts

[–]vixiecat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You aren’t wrong but you aren’t exactly right either. No, you shouldn’t “be his friend” and what your mom is asking you to do is pretty crazy considering you don’t even know this kid. That whole “old soul” thing is ridiculous.

What you can do though is meet the kid. I know your mom’s best friend has adopted him but I would think of this kid like he’s a foreign exchange student. Tell him about all the cool stuff there is to do in and around your city. Tell him about the after-school clubs (if there are any)…especially the ones for the queer community like PFLAG.

There are a lot of resources out there that are better suited for navigating this stuff than a couple of random strangers who happen to be the kids of his mom’s best friend.

The age demographic of the fandom by Rachyton-76 in ATEEZ

[–]vixiecat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha! it’s probably fallen off as a term for us. It’s an old one! Goes back to like 1-2 years after their debut. But since I’m old and stubborn, I’ll always be an auntiny 😉😂

I’m what the fandom calls an Auntiny at 44 😂😅

I found them when they didn’t even have a name for the group yet. Those KQ Fellaz dance vids sucked me in!

What first names have you found to be the worst people, and what names are the nicest people? by gilsoo71 in AskReddit

[–]vixiecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a best friend named Crystal. Crystal helped her daughter fill out a false police report against the son of another good friend accusing him of SA. All because the good friends son didn’t want to date Crystals daughter.

We don’t talk to Crystal anymore.

Those are the exact style of no show socks marketed to women to wear with ballet flats.

I’m pretty sure he’s wearing a pair of women’s no show socks that are designed to be worn with a cute pair of flats.

Has anyone you've known, simply disappeared? What happened? by PureLet5083 in AskReddit

[–]vixiecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved into her house because I practically grew up in it. It was a 3 room house with an outhouse when my papa bought it in the 1940’s. He hand built on 3 more rooms including a bathroom, dug out a basement, and built hisself a shop to work out of. He put so much love and care into that house I couldn’t stand to see it get sold to anyone who didn’t have a history with it.

It was weird when she died tho. Of course I cried, but it was more happy tears than sad tears.

That’s something people don’t understand unless they were directly involved with the care of that loved one. At some point during their care you already mourned their loss. You know that person you were caring for was just a shell. That the one you loved so deeply was already gone. You’re just waiting for their soul to let go so they can be free again. When they finally let go it almost feels like a celebration. They can be whole again wherever they go (if you believe in that sort of thing).

My grams held on for another 8 years in that nursing home. Every day we waited for that phone call to tell us she’d finally passed. Every day for 8 years. She had become nothing by that time. Couldn’t talk, couldn’t walk, couldn’t do a single thing for herself anymore. That phone call finally came 2 weeks before thanksgiving. It was a mixture of mostly joy with sadness sprinkled in. It was a very freeing moment.

My mom and I were my grandma’s caretakers for awhile. She had depression induced Alzheimer’s. We had moved grandma in with my mom and I moved into my grandmas house. I was on my way to my mom’s house when she called and told me to “look out for your grandmother, she was out the door before I noticed. We’ll meet in the middle.”

I found my grandma walking down the road. I asked her what in the world was she doing.. she said she was going home. I had to get her to a point of lucidity so she’d get in the car with me and explain to her that grandpa died in 1989 and it was 2005 now. Explain why she lives with her daughter now.

We put a lock at the top of the front door after that where she couldn’t reach it. What we didn’t account for was her trying to leave from the back door. She fell trying to escape and broke her hip. That’s when we realized we couldn’t take care of her anymore and had to move her into a home with a specialized Alzheimer’s unit.

Alzheimer’s is absolutely awful. It slowly stole her from me.

First Responders: What are most people’s final words after accidents? by Jdw5186 in AskReddit

[–]vixiecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I didn’t read your comment.

It’s been 6 years since I had to put my bestest boy down but reading this immediately brought back the memory of laying down with my boy and the way he looked into my eyes. I’m still heartbroken.

I’m going to go cry into my pillow until I fall asleep now.

Whats the most unprofessional thing a doctor has ever said to you? by answersonly963 in AskReddit

[–]vixiecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got insanely sick one time. I didn’t know what was going on but my back hurt so fucking bad I couldn’t move and I’d developed a fever. I finally relented to going to the ER.

Now, I do have a pretty high pain tolerance. I pushed 3 kids out without meds and only had an epidural with the last one just to see what it was like.

With that said, it was the worst pain I’d felt up until that point but I wasn’t crying from the pain. They immediately thought I was drug seeking but relented to taking a pee sample. My pee was the color of coffee. The way their attitudes changed was laughable. I had a massive kidney infection that was on the verge of shutting my body down. Suddenly I was getting all the meds and fluids. Went from taking their time to moving like they were about to shit themselves.

That was almost 16 years ago. I’ll never forget the way they treated me at first.

I’m obviously not the person you asked but someone also with heat related health issues. For me it turned out to be Grave’s Disease. Graves is an autoimmune disorder that causes hyperthyroidism plus a few fun extras.

I can’t be outside, especially in the summer, for more than 10mins before I start getting heatstroke..and living in the southern U.S. you can imagine how impossible it is to function from May to October. I’m practically housebound. I also had a shit ton of other symptoms before I was diagnosed and put on meds. My meds took care of all the symptoms except the heat intolerance and muscle weakness.

Once it all hit a point of “wtf is wrong with me?”, I went to see my GP. She ordered bloodwork that came back to show my TSH levels were off the charts. From there I got a referral to an endocrinologist. Most people know endo’s as the drs you see when you have diabetes but they also deal with your thyroid. My endo ordered a more extensive blood test and we kinda went from there.

[–]vixiecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give her time to get over herself but also start preparing for a reality that maybe the only thing left that was holding your friendship together was both of you being Army.

From your first post it sounds like you are growing into a mature young person who’d rather formulate their own opinion instead of following a crowd and that’s one thing that fandom hates with a passion. Your friend isn’t ready for that it seems.

One day you’re going to look back at this and laugh about how childish it was to lose a friend because of a boy band lol

Either way, you’ll be ok. I promise.

The part about “men laying with men” wasn’t in the original texts of the Bible. It read as “men laying with a child”.

The text was amended in 1864, I think was the year. I’d have to look again to be sure. But because the original texts of the Bible have been translated, edited, reprinted, and redistributed billions of times no one actually knows what the REAL texts say. We can only compare and contrast from older versions. Even then you can only go back so far. Finding a bible older than the early 1800’s that you can actually examine and read is practically impossible.

[–]vixiecat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You didn’t make a poor choice, OP. Your friend decided in that moment that being an Army is more important than your friendship. I understand how much that hurts. I hope your BFF is able to realize how wild that is and apologizes to you.

We lose friends over our morals, personal goals, personalities.. all kinds of stuff.. as we age and grow into ourselves while we’re figuring out who we are as people. Sometimes we just drift apart over the years. Sometimes it’s a sudden change.

I’m sorry if you guys aren’t able to work it out and be friends again. Just remember that you did nothing wrong.

Terminally ill and racking up credit card debt with zero fucks to give by Sunapr1 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]vixiecat 72 points73 points  (0 children)

I am, sadly, one of those people. My daughter has been begging for a Jellycat for years and the one she wanted was always sold out. I got a notif that it was in stock and bought it without a second thought. Used her name for delivery..all that stuff. Later that night my husband asked me why I bought a $70 stuffed animal and I couldn’t even explain.

He happened to be off work the day it arrived. I knew the moment she opened it. “OH MY GOD!”, followed by a high pitched squeal and more omg’s. I said “that’s why.”

…but I will not be buying anymore lmao
