I’ve not seen anything that says fat cells ever go away, could you provide a source for this? I’ve always been under the impression that once they are there you can only remove them via liposuction or surgery. Thanks

Today is my birthday.
My mom has small cell lung cancer and is halfway across the US with my older brother. She has been mentally deteriorating for a while and they forgot my birthday. I get it because there is a lot going on with her disease, it’s just hard to see her so broken that she forgot.
My favorite food is artichokes and no store had them in stock, so I’m just gonna have steak and squash instead. Was at least hoping this would be an upside and now it’s not lol
IDK. It’s been an okay day I guess, I feel bad for my mom mostly. Getting older is hard.
Reddit just feels like hive mind jokes and reposts, but on lemmy people are genuinely interacting so it feels more engaging (which don’t get me wrong, happens on reddit too, you just have to sift through all the stupid marinara flag jokes)
Right, Halloween decorations were meant to be year round
It’s really sad, I really liked him at one time - he used to make a lot of sense to my very lefty mind, and then at some point I realized the things he was saying were becoming more conspiracy than reality and that I didn’t really agree with him anymore. I like science and evidence, not crazy bullshit.
Yes kill with kindness was going to be my suggestion. I also agree with not interacting with her unless she’s directly trying to discuss something with you.
Also, if she says you’re doing something wrong, instead of just trying harder or ignoring her, just ask her to show you the best way to do it. People like people who ask them for favors, and this might make her warm up to you some. If it’s bad enough that you don’t want to be at work, you could also consider asking for a shift change. Be kind, be as strong as you can manage, and ignore if you need to.
Yes, middle school late 90s, northeast us. I made it to the top, but I was in gymnastics for most of Elementary school so I was really strong from that for a good decade after I quit 😆 I was also able to do pull ups in high school too (15ish) which from what I understand is typically difficult for girls. Now I can’t even do a single push up fml 😞 maybe I can change that before I hit 40 lol
Our high school also had a huge rock wall in the gym which was pretty cool, but we only did it for like a week one year
I just found out the other day that there are colors other than yellow, i saw seeds for pink and also white dandelions the other day on a seed site
I think mostly because it was unexpected for his age, usually questions like that came from much older people and it was surprising to me that someone barely older than me didn’t understand web based email. He seemed like a smart competent dude, so it was just not an answer my brain was ready for. Laughing might not be the best gauge for anything for me, laughing is also my fear response.
This is probably my favorite game, it’s going through a rough patch right now because development had halted for about a year and was then sold to another company last year who are still in the process of transferring everything over. I’m hoping for new development within another year because it’s an awesome game, but it’s been stagnant for a long time. It’s not on sale, but they’ve discussed a lower price for it openly after they get things rolling. We’ll see.
I sold computers at best buy for a few years around a decade ago, and this particular experience burned itself into my brain:
Me: introduce myself, ask what he was looking for Guy in his 30s: wants to look at chromebooks Me: tries finding out what he’s using it for to make sure it’ll be enough Guy: web browsing mostly, asks me if he can get his email on it Me: yeah no problem, what email client do you use now Guy: Gmail
It was hard to not laugh, but I am reminded of this when I think of the average person’s technical ability.
Well week 2 of “potentially going to just end up homeless” is pretty shit too. Looked at a house an hour away, it was awful, roof in disrepair, the guy was living in one room and smoking in it after his divorce so the whole house smelled like smoke, there was moss growing in a window. Multiple other issues. Noped out of that one.
Stared at realtor site longer.
One gets listed that’s perfect, it meets every single one of our needs and isn’t a long commute, we go look, put in an offer. We have the highest offer. Our agent calls saying the realtor says if we can offer a gap coverage if the house appraises lower we’ll be close, we can do a small gap (5k) and still have enough to close. She calls back later, apparently they’re now between us and another offer, but they have a higher gap so if we can offer 10k and extend closing date we’ll probably get it. Talk to family, they say we can borrow 3k if necessary, great we have just enough.
Nope they did the same thing to the other buyer and increased the gap and chose them.
I just want to give up. Fuck all of this, fuck shitty landlords and fuck scummy real estate agents, fuck the housing market, fuck not having enough money, fml
I cannot think of a game that has better value for money than Factorio.
Rimworld. It’s the only other one I can think of that people play for insane hours, it’s still my most played game and I’ve barely touched it in a long while, I think I have 1400ish, my boyfriend has over 3.5k hours
I had it write a rap about the poop emoji
I mostly use it for silly things or to give me ideas, and I might try it if we get back into running a game in foundry vtt because the macro I had it test generate messing around looked like it should work fine and I’m lazy
But I can’t imagine using it for serious stuff ever. Maybe in a few years.
Complaints about rgb are always odd to me because you can just turn it off if you dislike it. Even really cheap items without software have an “off” in the color cycles.
As a 38 year old woman I want rgb everything, my entire computer rainbows and I love it
Removing ourselves from a shitty situation is not anti free speech. They are free to say whatever they want, and I am free to not have to read it. If you want to interact and read it you are free to go there.
Look at how free we all are.
Corporations buying them up to rent out is my speculation, between that, people attempting to flip them, and just regular home buyers, it’s making for a very low amount available which causes prices to be high, and new houses aren’t being built fast enough to keep up.
Fucking ugh. This week is just ugh. Our landlady has brain cancer (our rent is currently about half what apartments are going for in our city, they doubled during covid) and I’m not sure if she’s passed or not but her adult son has taken over the building with his wife and as of Tuesday have given us notice that at the end of the month we’ll get a letter giving us 60 days to move out (month to month lease). We just had a second child in January. They’re kicking us out with a five month old so they can renovate our apartment and charge double.
So instead of paying a ridiculous amount to rent somewhere again we’re attempting to buy a house, but the housing market up here is super tight and they’re all going way over asking price within days. I don’t know what we’re gonna do if we can’t find something suitable in the next week or two so we have time to get this all done in time to move. We do have really good credit and enough to close, but finding one that isn’t a failed flip or looks like it’s from the 70s or isn’t snatched up immediately is wearing on me.
Everything needs to line up and it’s just not right now. I haven’t cried yet so I guess that’s alright.
What exactly is an “emotional outburst” for you?
There are a lot of things this could mean, ranging from more benign (sobbing) to extreme or scary (throwing things or screaming or worse)
If it’s anywhere near the latter then you need to figure out how to manage those symptoms of your mental illness before you’re ready for a relationship.
