I'm putting mine in the next comment, please tack on yours!

Grad school Statement of Purpose

[(Anonymous)]

Grad students, how do you write a statement of purpose? I'm lost. I'm applying for a creative writing MFA. The examples of statements of purpose online are really different. Is this like a cover letter, a persuasive argument (like "You should accept me because I'm a nice person who never cheats at Scrabble"), or proof of your ability to write?

tmi hemorrhoids

[(Anonymous)]

TMI TMI TMI

I got one. I noticed it yesterday. It is making sitting very annoying. It doesn't hurt but it aches and itches. I think it is an external one. I can physically push it back into my anus and then it doesn't hurt as much.

I am using preparation h, witch hazel wipes, and a heating pad. Not sure if it is helping yet. I am terrified of a future BM. When should I go to a doctor about this?

Free friends activities?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm short on cash rn, but I still want to hang out with friends and I feel bad if they're constantly making dinner for me (I'm too short on cash to return the favor tbqh). What are some ideas for free friends activities? I have "going for a hike". Any other ideas?

TMI stomach/intestinal issues issues/bathroom issues/mentions of female hormones

[(Anonymous)]

So I've been not feeling well for more than a week now. It started with the beginning of my hormonal period last week, which lasted until Saturday. On top of that, I had a migraine, probably induced by a combination of hormones, lack of sleep, and cheese, that lasted from Thursday until Sunday night.

Anyway, probably due to the tramadol I was taking for the migraine, I was constipated Saturday and Sunday.

Late Sunday night/early Monday morning I started to feel nauseous. I thought it was the constipation. But as soon as that was finished I was suddenly having the opposite problem and also throwing up.

I haven't thrown up since about 7 this morning, but I've continued to be super nauseous and my stool is liquid.

I just don't know if it is worth seeing a doctor. It is probably just all the tramadol/asprin/tilenol I've been taking for days, I think. Honestly I've had a lot of headaches lately so I've been taking a lot of asprin lately, so my system may be just saying enough. But then again, maybe something is wrong and I should be worried?

Ritalin/similar meds

[(Anonymous)]

I've been put on ritalin, and right now I'm sitting at my computer and both my legs are bouncing incessantly. I've been doing this for like an hour.
I'm very used to stimming, but I feel like it's gotten a bit more intense since I started taking the ritalin? Has anyone here ever taken ritalin and experienced similar.

Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

What are some kinks you USED to like but you're over now?

Mine, funnily enough, is sibling incest. I used to love the taboo aspect, but now I just think of how exploitative and uncomfortable it would be IRL.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

Hypnotism and transformation. Not really sure why but I'm just not into them anymore.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

Used to be into femdom when I was younger. Definitely prefer maledom now. No idea why.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

Dysphoria killed off any interest in lactation or mpreg. Probably for the best in my case.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

I use to be into master/slave and Student/teacher stuff when I was younger, but they both make me feel uncomfortable now.

Also I went through a lot of hypnokink stuff at one point years and years ago, which just makes me feel weird to think about it now.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

Vampires/drinking blood in general and in a kinky setting. I basically bit by tongue so hard I swallowed literal moutfulls of blood one time so just the thought of swallowing blood makes me sick.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

Teenage girl/older guy. I absolutely used these kinds of ships to explore my attraction to adult-men when I was a teenager, but now I am an adult they no longer appeal to me at all. I still like age-gaps in my ships, but I want both halves to be adults.

Incest for me too. I was into the taboo nature of it as well, but through a combo of having to deal with far too many fandoms making it twee and schmoopy, and just kinda growing out of it it in general I no longer find those ships appealing.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

I used to be really into seme/uke dynamics, but now they just make me really uncomfortable.

Re: Abandon kinks, all ye who enter...

[(Anonymous)]

Power dynamics and sexual harassment- it skeeves me out now but I used to be into them

Anything nice or exciting going on for you this week?

Politicssss

[(Anonymous)]

So Donald Trump contracted covid, claimed he really learned a lot from the experience, made some tweets that trivialize it, then whipped off his mask for a photo op. LOL I couldn't hate him more if I tried

I'm glad he's not dead. Hopefully he lives to lose the election. Fingers crossed!

Satisfying/Unsatisfying Endings

[(Anonymous)]

I just finished reading a book that did not end how I wanted it to end (I will hold out hope that the characters reunite, love can't die etc etc TEARS :'( ETC.)
However, I did think the ending was satisfying to some degree. The last we know of the MC, her love interest sends someone to look after her (in a way) and sends her an additional and unanticipated gift that refers to conversations she assumed he'd forget, so if you're like me, you take the implication that her connection to him remains un-severed, despite distance and obligations and RUN with it.

What media (books, movies, shows, VG) has had an ending that was either:
1. Satisfying for you (your hopes for the end aligned with the author)
2. Satisfying for the story (your hopes don't align, but it suits the characters or plot)
3. Unsatisfying (for everybody involved)

What Are Your General Feelings Towards Optimism And Pessimism?

[(Anonymous)]

An admittedly vague question with a million possible answers but it's something that's been on my mind a lot.
