At 25, worked various retail and some office stuff since I was 14, i went to apply to a tims and the owner said to my face that he didn’t believe my resume, looked too promising, and that ‘we’ll see if you’re any good.’

So now I will believe anything about Tims. Anyways, I got hired and managed to keep my previous wage cause the manager took me seriously, then I worked my ass off there until my second job got full, then I got out.

Tims was decent enough when i was 16. The requirements for employees were bad then, but disgusting now. They want a 25-second drive through time when they’re now selling products that take 3 minutes to make, no adjustment for that.

Also it’s just as well that she didn’t get hired if she looks white. My sister (she got the job around when I did) is getting called racial slurs by the other people and nothing is really being done about that.

If she really wants a job at tims, just keep applying. They’ll hire when the turnover is bad regardless of ‘gap in resume.’

But I wouldn’t recommend it. Work literally anywhere else if you can. It’s too stressful.

Pastor’s into succubus. What a shame.

Yes I know a couple Willows

Already apologized 👍

I’m not saying people with these diagnoses are bad people. I’m saying I’ve had relationships with people whose symptoms and behavior made the relationship very unhealthy for me, and I’m not willing to repeat that dynamic.

Well, I made the mistake of trying to be friends with an antisocial disorder and a bipolar disorder person before, and I will not be repeating that experience.

I’m not, anymore. Got tired.
The way I did it was by having single servings of meat frozen. I’d take those out and cook up however much I needed for the day (i work afternoons/evenings), or for the day and the next day. Then i’d make sure I had rice, potatoes, or some other starch cooked for about 3-4 days out.
So then I’d put the meat and starch in a container, put some pickled or frozen veggies with it, put some salt, sometimes spices/herbs, some form of fat, and sometimes condiments with. Took maybe 30mins-1hr to prep.

But like I said. I got tired.
So i’m either doing that or buying a burrito or snacks on my way to work.
And I don’t batch because I find that it’s too much work for not enough results, and I hate eating meat but I need to for blood/iron/protein, so meat is most tolerable when it’s cooked fresh right after thawing.

Oh no. I’d have to stop splitting rent with my mother. I would get even less privacy. 💀

I would rather cave than do anything heights-related 💀
Not that I would particularly want to cave.

Yeah. Giyu Tomioka, Demon Slayer.

isn’t this against the rules

Yeah

As a woman, I don’t feel that all men are trash. But I have had painfully little exposure to IRL men who are kind, genuine, honest, loyal, etc.
(Edit: and had HORRIFIC exposure to men who were the opposite)
So I understand where other girls are coming from.

I think whenever people speak in extremes, it’s best not to take them literally. ‘All men’ cannot be the same, ‘all women’ cannot be the same, etc. I would assume they mean ‘I’m overwhelmed with how badly I’ve been treated/seen others treated by men and i don’t trust them.’

As far as is it reasonable for it to affect your mental health? I don’t see why it would be unreasonable. Simple things affect me mentally, like I was messed up for years that when I offered to help someone I was close to with something, they wrote off my help which would have been exactly what they needed, to tell me that someone else had that skill because they were (this profession). Meanwhile i was (that profession) and had the same skill, if not better. Tiny splinter in my confidence for ten years that had ripple effects.

So yeah I think it’s reasonable to hear ‘all of the group you belong to are trash’ and feel bad.
And I would say, stay away from people who devalue you.

I avoid men like the plague and only talk to guys who have been in my professional circle for years and don’t give me bad vibes.

You don’t have to look at them, speak to them, or acknowledge they exist, unless you want to. Safest way to stay off their radar and avoid harassment. Headphones in whenever u step outside, volume low if you wanna be aware of your surroundings. They’re a good, ‘I can’t hear you and didn’t notice you exist’ signal that most people leave you alone for.

That’s how i handle it. Also I have body alarms and tell my family where I am.

Not all men are dangerous. But enough of them are, or are at least annoying or invasive, that you have every right not to engage.

So. Yeah. If you don’t feel safe, and if you feel inferior or threatened, makes sense to me.

If you feel like you’re gonna die, please call a help line.

Looking down on this post for 14yo aura.

Kay seriously though. Two things.
Three things.
1. Yes being cool is entertaining. Terminator, Matrix, Iron Man, whatever anime you have in mind. All extra awesome because they’re cool.
2. But you could put a bunch of cool stuff in a piece of media, and if the story or character development are garbage, then the whole thing is garbage. Example: New Star Wars. Rey might be badass. But she’s a horrifically written character, which is why everyone despises her for being badass. Kylo Ren has aura. Until he gets his ass kicked by a girl who never even trained. Then you’ve developed hype and aura for no reason. Like telling everyone for two weeks how good your backflip is, but then when you actually go to show them you do a somersault instead.
3. Reddit is full of people 20+. If you don’t wanna be made fun of, don’t talk stupid.
AND ONE MORE THING.
4. Just learn how to write better. Just because we have computers doesn’t mean being illiterate will get you a job.

An unfunny bot

I mean if your guy asked you to hit him for a music video, wouldn’t you?
i would in a heartbeat i dunno bro

edit: cause it’s consensual 😭 not cause i wanna randomly hit people

Yep. Wed nez day

LOL girl is not hard of hearing. You’re a bit of an asshole.

Never answer yes if you’re on vacation.
This question how u get kidnapped.

Yes. Too much, working on boundaries.

Lol what’s wrong with your dad 😂

Kühn & Gallinat, JAMA Psychiatry (2014): in 64 healthy men, more reported porn use was associated with lower gray-matter volume in the right caudate, lower putamen response to sexual images, and weaker connectivity between the caudate and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. But the authors explicitly say they cannot tell whether porn caused those differences or whether people with those brain characteristics were simply more drawn to porn.

I.e. either it changes your reward circuitry, or you’re drawn to porn because of changes in your reward circuitry

Voon et al., PLOS ONE (2014): people with compulsive sexual behavior showed stronger activity in reward/motivation circuitry—including the ventral striatum, dorsal anterior cingulate, and amygdala—in response to explicit sexual cues. They also showed more “wanting” without correspondingly greater “liking,” which resembles cue-reactivity patterns studied in addictions.

I.e. addict-like brain chemistry: you want more extreme or more volume but you either enjoy it the same or worse.

I mean vegetables can be cut up and fried into whatever the meat is. The best way to eat fruits is in smoothies.
