remember to cry for help without guilt-tripping. i know it feels like youāve been abandoned and betrayed, but itās probably not true, and itās not okay to accuse the people around you of something they might not have done.
āi guess none of you like meā could be better phrased asĀ āi feel unloved right nowā
ābut nobody cares anywayā could be better phrased asĀ āi feel insignificant and i need reassuranceā
rather than assuming othersā feelings, give them time to explain them. youāll usually get a much better answer.
This is really important for future predictions, too.Ā āYouāre eventually going to leave meā is impossible for someone else to disprove without just sticking around forever, but no one wants to stick around when theyāre being constantly accused of future abandonment. Giving someone no choice but to either stay with you forever in order to prove you wrong or leave you and prove you right is incredibly emotionally manipulative, whether you mean it to be or not.
āI get scared sometimes because Iām afraid of being alone againā is easier to address and doesnāt leave your partner(s)/friend(s) feeling as though theyāre being preemptively accused of something.Ā Ā
wait shit this is actually really useful ty
How dare you leave this in the tags.
Can anyone explain wtf is going on here especially a Korean speaker
someone on reddit explained š
That is one of the most astronomical fuck up translations I have ever seen.
When you're googling Google for your Buffy fic to figure out whether the characters would be using Google in the summer of 2000 and then the Wikipedia entry for 'Google (verb)' includes this:

I have a bisexual guppy and its funny as hell to watch because it seems like heās only bi out of desperation. Like all of the female guppies are unimpressed by him, and dont accept his mating displays, and every time he fails, he goes over to a SPECIFIC male guppy (the prettiest male guppy in the tank) like PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE and that male guppy always lets him????
i would read that fanfic ngl
About my fish??
HELP?????
YEAH THIS IS SCIENTIFICALLY RECORDED
WOMEN LOVE GAYBOY

listen it's not that I think epic the musical is a perfect adaption of the odyssey but it was an impressive passion project that knew what it wanted to be and knew what people gravitated to in the original work and it put significant effort into conveying this through its unique medium and tone to the point that hundreds of other people felt compelled to put effort into their own artistic interpretations of that version of the story. and that's really cool! and yes I would be more critical if it was a 100 million dollar project made by a professional because what the fuck do you mean you're a world-famous director and you cut the my name is nobody scene are you goddamn serious
Iām reading this book about the changing arctic and the author stayed with the Nunamiut people of inland alaska for a while and talked to this high school kid who was like āugh I hate going to school in the spring I wish I was hunting caribouā and I thought that was charming. you often hear about people who are devoted to preserving their traditional culture and knowledge but itās rare to hear about someone whoās invested in the old ways out of pure teenage selfishness. school is lame and hunting caribou is awesome
the year is 2035. the new beauty standard is for women to cut their ears off, as ears are a masculine trait which make the face look too big and hearing isnt necessary as it doesnt align with being demure. evil feminists say perhaps this is unnecessary and ears are natural. women are agressively proclaiming they are cutting their ears off due to sensory issues

"Whimsy" is truly a wretched term. What maketh thee so carefree?
thy mother
Art thou for fucking real
This isnāt fucking funny. My father was torn to pieces in the noob wars by a silver rank landmine
how does your dad being reduced to freelo protect our guild
MY FATHER BLED FOR THIS GUILD WHILE YOU WERE STILL IN THE TUTORIAL. YOU SMURF ON HIS VERY BONES.
One of my all-time favorites
Yes some languages like French or Thai or Japanese have nonsensical or weird spelling but you can already read English so you should be used to that by now
Look at Thai. This script is very old. Many of these sounds donāt exist like that anymore. Do not panic. You know how to read knife. You are battle hardened already.
Japanese kanji have many different sound and meaning. Too many. However, you can already deal with things that donāt make sense. You have conquered deer and dear. You have learned to deal with phishing and fishing. You can do this.
French have many silent letters, but so do we. Grab French by the throat. Choke it to death to assert dominance.
Just learn Irish or Finnish or Hungarian or Basque if you want a phonetic language. But no, for some reasons "that's too complicated". Aight then, suit yourself.
Or learn Low German/ Low Saxon where we don't have a formalised spelling system at all and everyone just spells to their hearts content.
Where are the resources to learn Plattdeutsch btw? Itās a heritage language for me but you say that you wanna learn it and everybody just talks about how impractical that is

Imagine being so braindead that you think the UK being one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world is a good thing š¤”
wtf are you talking about, they didn't "deplete" the nature of their country, they cultivated their wilderness over centuries into some of the most idyllic pastoral landscapes in the entire world. And they did such a good job of it that the phrase "English countryside" is now synonymous with beauty and serenity and peacefulness. They didn't destroy their country's nature, they became its caretaker, they're right to be proud of it. All you're doing is pretending that the only kind of nature that should count is whatever is completely untouched by human hands.
The UK is literally ranked in the bottom 10% of most nature-depleted countries in the world. The 2023 State of Nature report shows just how dire the situation is. A third of UK bird species have declined since the 1990s, 97% of the UK's wildflower meadows have been lost since the 1930s, raw sewage is constantly being pumped into our rivers and seas with agricultural slurry also causing massive damage to rivers, three quarters of Britain's hedgehogs have been lost in the past 20 years and UK butterfly numbers are at their lowest ever, a sign of impending ecosystem collapse. Plus people in Britain are the most disconnected from nature in Europe.
Not to mention over populated deer destroying what little is left due to a lack of predators, 60 million non-native birds released for sport shooting every year, plus huge amounts of wildlife crime, including large numbers of birds of prey being shot/poisoned.
There is nothing beautiful about a sterile, ecologically damaged landscape that contains nothing but sheep and deer. Don't comment on something you clearly know nothing about. I live in England. I can see first hand just how dire the situation is.

I saw a comment on your blog that says 'the way you eat does not cause diabetes'...are you able to expand on that or provide a source I could read? I've been told by doctors that my pre-diabetes was due to weight gain because I get more hungry on my anti psychotics and I'd like to fact check what they've told me! Thank you so much!
There are a lot more factors at play in diabetes ā more complicated than āI had a cupcake at lunch.ā
Pre-diabetes was rejected as a diagnosis by the World Health Organization (although it is used by the US and UK) - the correct term for the condition is impaired glucose tolerance. Approximately 2% of people with "pre-diabetes" go on to develop diabetes per year. You heard that right - TWO PERCENT. Most diabetics actually skip the pre-diabetic phase.
There are currently no treatments for pre-diabetes besides intentional weight loss. (Hmm, that's convenient, right?) There has yet to be evidence that losing weight prevents progression from pre-diabetes to T2DM beyond a year. Interestingly, drug companies are trying to persuade the medical world to start treating patients earlier and earlier. They are using the term āpre-diabetesā to sell their drugs (including Wegovy, a weight-loss drug). Surgeons are using it to sell weight loss surgery. Everyoneās a winner, right? Not patients. Especially fat patients.
Check out these articles:
Prediabetes: The epidemic that never was, and shouldnāt be
The war on āprediabetes' could be a boon for pharmaābut is it good medicine?
Also - I love what Dr. Asher Larmie @fatdoctorUK has to say about T2DM and insulin resistance, so here's one of their threads I pulled from Twitter:
1ļøā£ You can't prevent insulin resistance. It's coded in your DNA. It may be impacted by your environment. Studies have shown it has nothing to do with your BMI.
2ļøā£ The term "pre-diabetes" is a PR stunt. The correct term is impaired glucose tolerance (or impaired fasting glucose) which is sometimes referred to as intermittent hyperglycemia. It does not predict T2DM. It is best ignored and tested for every 3-5yrs.
3ļøā£ there is no evidence that losing weight prevents diabetes. That's because you can't reverse insulin resistance. You can possibly postpone it by 2yrs? Furthermore there is evidence that those who are fat at the time of diagnosis fair much better than those who are thin.
4ļøā£ Weight loss does not reverse diabetes in the VAST majority of people. Those that do reverse it are usually thinner with recent onset T2DM and a low A1c. Only a tiny minority can sustain that over 2yrs. Weight loss does not improve A1c levels beyond 2 yrs either.
5ļøā£ Weight loss in T2DM does not improve macrovascular or microvascular health outcomes beyond 2 years. In fact, weight loss in diabetics is associated with increased mortality and morbidity (although it is not clear why). Weight cycling is known to impacts A1c levels.
6ļøā£ Weight GAIN does NOT increase the risk of cardiovascular OR all causes mortality in diabetics. In fact, one might even go so far as to say that it's better to be fat and diabetic than to be thin and diabetic.
Dr. Larmie cites 18 peer reviewed journal articles (most from the last decade) that are included in their webinar on the subject, linked below.
