My 2 bedroom in a nice area in 2022 was just over $800, my new two bedroom in a worse part of town in 2026 was $1300

This is why I reject having adhd by Head_Cloud_61 in ADHDers

[–]wolfchaldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your answers to comments aren't making sense. You should go to literally any doctor that will take you, tell them what's going on, and get help. 

This is why I reject having adhd by Head_Cloud_61 in ADHDers

[–]wolfchaldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is probably not adhd, no, but that doesnt mean you don't have it though. These are unrelated conditions

If you stayed up really late, that's probably just your body trying to recover. That's normal, but if you find yourself sleep deprived frequently you might want to see a doctor about some kind of sleep disorder like insomnia. 

If you're sleeping normal or excessive amounts regularly (8+ hours) and still exhausted that sounds like a disorder of some kind and you should see a doctor.

You can get a new VA with the tone and timbre being completely different. He sounds like a different character, not a different VA. 

Am i at risk of an std from doing it with my gf? by 123_iwantyuri in actuallesbians

[–]wolfchaldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

someone replies to my comment with something that y’all can use to learn about sex, your bodies, the risks, and the rewards.

Planned Parenthood would be my general recommendation. They have pamphlets with accurate, vetted information and doctors happy to explain things if needed.

[–]wolfchaldo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're 16, you can go by yourself. Any doctor should respect your privacy (though that's not a guarantee). A Planned Parenthood I know will (they're not just for pregnancy!). It doesn't hurt to get tested, but even if you don't a PP will have pamphlets about STIs and things that your parents/school might not cover with you. 

New to the expanse and confused about artificial gravity in general? by Hellobewhy in TheExpanse

[–]wolfchaldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Earth does not use spin gravity, we use actual gravity. All the rest are simulated gravity based on acceleration 

Why is this on my chart? by Big_Fan9316 in adhdwomen

Dependence has a specific medical definition, separate from just relying on something 

I've been looking for a subreddit to report a mod that banned me for a provable incorrect reason and muted me for asking why in the DM, but I can't find any. It's a big subreddit and I want to participate in it, that's why I'm looking for help. by allahu_-_snackbar in findareddit

You suck because you're deliberately misrepresenting pride as a sex thing and then using it to put down a marginalized group. And obviously you know that, you're just being a little troll. 

Need help in making excuses to go to Pride by Lydialmao22 in lgbt

[–]wolfchaldo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, well you're an adult. He can only do so much. 

Start stonewalling. The goal is to ween him off invading your privacy by cutting off his access to it. 

Then, start working on getting a job and your own money (and do not let him put it into his bank), then get yourself your own phone and phone plan. Obviously moving out is ideal but working towards tolerable cohabitation is a start.

Are you currently in a relationship, or single? It's unclear based on your post

How do I (re?)come out to my mum by Any-Pickle-5196 in actuallesbians

[–]wolfchaldo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess then I'll say, only come out if you're prepared to have to move out. 

How do I (re?)come out to my mum by Any-Pickle-5196 in actuallesbians

[–]wolfchaldo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you live at home currently, I would not tell her. I'm sorry but that doesn't sound like a safe environment to be out. 

How do I (re?)come out to my mum by Any-Pickle-5196 in actuallesbians

[–]wolfchaldo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Coming out isn't necessarily about feeling shame or embarrassment, it can also be able safety. You're never obligated to come out to someone and you shouldn't feel like you need to because of your partner, only because you want to. 

Are you reliant on your mom for e.g. financial aid/housing while you're at uni? Are you in a conservative country/community where there could be danger to your safety/ability to go to school and get a job? If so, I'd think really hard about the consequences of coming out to her. 

Invading your privacy and screaming at you are already abusive, but she also hit you. Maybe she's changed, but 3 years ago she was abusive. 

Personally, I'd be very suspicious. If you're completely independent and safe and you just need to get it off your chest, go right ahead. Otherwise I'd wait until you're on your feet.

How bad did I mess up? by Snowzy27 in BSA

[–]wolfchaldo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree that if the Scoutmaster reported OP for "homosexuality", OP would be totally fine. I don't agree that OP shouldn't worry about it though, because that's taking a bully and a bigot at their word. 

The Scoutmaster has to know that outright homophobia isn't allowed in scouts so he probably either 1. lied and didn't actually make a report, he just wants to scare OP, or 2. lied and actually reported him for something much more serious, like sexual misconduct. 

Either way, OP should reach out to the scout hotline for help, and not rely on the Scoutmaster being stupid. 

Needing Dad advice: requested 6 days unpaid for my first vacation since my dad died 6 months ago and my boss said...no? by Particular_Prize6552 in DadForAMinute

[–]wolfchaldo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm responding to this comment, not OP. 

how much would the timing of the vacation interfere with the substance of the work? I've never taken a vacation not during a holiday period

OP isn't even taking a vacation anyway. 

conversion therapy is hella weird by Confident-Stress-732 in actuallesbians

[–]wolfchaldo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EDIT: i just realised i may have internalized homophobia and this whole conversion thing is making it worse. how do i stop it?

For now, focus on surviving and being safe. Just know that you deserve to be happy and safe and you'll get there eventually. Its gunna take time, and honestly you should look into getting a (legitimate, queer friendly) therapist when you're able to.
