Totally valid, I have the same thing but with Russian! There's also an aspect of just being not very good at the language, so when speaking it at home I basically never had a chance to sufficiently vocalize my thoughts or defend myself in arguments - just because I was never taught enough words for that.
I basically refuse to speak it unless directly talking to my own or my partners parents. Though the hope is to break contact with my parents soon 🤞
Aww, they're sending you on a quest!

Frage/Diskussion: Medikamentkosten?
Moin, bei mir gehts mal so langsam voran und ich hatte heute den zweiten Eindosierungstermin mit meinem Doc. Dabei wurde ich auf 20mg Medikinet retard erhöht.
In der Apotheke musste ich für die 30er Packung dann knapp 18€ zahlen. Hatte mich kurz gewundert, irgendwie hatte ich im Kopf dass man maximal 10€ an Selbstbeteiligung zahlt.

Und ja, nach etwas googeln fand ich dann heraus, dass die Selbstbeteiligung für ein Medikament bei 10% liegt, aber minimum 5€ und maximal 10€.
Aber: Nicht wenn das Medikament über dem Festpreis liegt, dann fallen nämlich Mehrkosten an:

Hier hab ich dann die

Advocating for basic empathy is really not a thing that has to be gatekept to one gender 🤷

What's your favorite bean?
Definitely stainless steel pans! They take a bit to get used to, but they're so much more convenient because you don't have to baby them like teflon pans. Cleaning is also much easier, I just scrape them down with a metal spatula and throw them in the dishwasher.

Is there anything you're missing so far?
How many chains did you do on the ends to turn? This tutorial is saying to do 4. It looks to me like you either did less than that or your chains were a bit tight, which maybe made you lose track of them at the ends?
I use a radiant heat panel in my snakes Terrarium, the human-sized versions of them look pretty promising imo. You could install one on the ceiling right above your work desk so that it radiates the warmth down. They might be a bit on the pricey side though.

What's your New Year's resolution?
This is also a good time to consider not having kids at all. Imagine how bad Internet brainrot will get in 5-10 years.
A larger mass loses less thermal energy because it has less surface. So the snakes bask during the day and store up heat, and then huddle together to keep that heat around for longer. Same as a big rock would hold heat for longer than separate tiny pebbles would
They're turning the friggin snakes gay!! ::: spoiler spoiler (i approve) :::
I have to admit that I won't be on good terms again with my sibling for a long while. They did some very distressing things this year that were a large contributor to my burnout. Never apologized for it, never tried to fix anything. I'm done with that tbh

How are you preparing for Veganuary?
yoo congrats! What dose are you on, if I may ask?
I started on 10mg of Medikinet Retard (same thing as Adderall XR iirc) about a week and a half ago, and the effect has been... very subtle. Slightly longer feeling days, slightly more things getting done right away, maybe a bit easier time planning? The naps have been pretty good too, but that might just be because I had to quit caffeine during titration :o
random question, what is that chicken thing called? And can that doughy exterior somehow be recreated at home, ideally without several liters of oil??
fyi, dragonfucker is banned from 196 too. I think the moderators are pretty fair in yeeting people for being rude, regardless of opinions on gender and the like
Love that site, especially for just browsing categories!
🌿 Welcome to c/Veganuary!
Only one week until January!
I've decided to open this community on lemmy.world, as the vegantheoryclub.org instance hasn't replied to my registration request in a week.
Gonna get everything set up and pre-write some checkin-templates. If anyone wants to mod or suggest an Icon/Background image for the community, feel free to comment here!

Are there people without handedness?
I don't mean Ambidextrous!
Yesterday I tried cutting a vegetable with the knife in my non-dominant hand and it was a weird and uncomfortable thing. I wonder if there are people who have that distinct discomfort of using your "bad" hand, but on both hands?
I don't think it would fall under ambidexterity, because that kinda implies someone is comfortable with either hand, but could someone be uncomfortable with both?
A community for Veganuary?
Heyhey, I'd love to try Veganuary next month. And something like a daily check-in post would really help keep me accountable, similar to how [email protected] does it. It would feel a little rude to spam [email protected] with it though, so I think a new community would be warranted?
Maybe on the VeganTheoryClub Instance? Does anyone have an account there and could create it?
Made this funky crop sweater




I found this really cool yarn in a random Tedi Store, but they only had 2 skeins in stock. I tried checking back in that same store for a month, but it never was restockend. Tiny sweater it is then!


💤 Naptime Videos - Videos to fall asleep to 😴
It's like Mealtimevideos, but for falling asleep :)

These are spider mites, right?



I found them on one vine of the Ivy plant that I bought from Ikea about a month ago. It was kept about 2m away from my other plants, so I'm hoping that the little guys haven't had the chance to hop over.
I've also liberally cut off the visibly affected branch and sprayed off the Ivy in the shower, followed by a generous misting with soapy water. The plant will stay quarantined in my kitchen for the next few weeks, hope it recovers :<
My other plants seem fine so far, at least I couldn't find any critters on their leaves when I checked tonight.

Opinions on /e/OS
Hey people! I was wondering if anyone here has heard of/ used Morena's /e/OS and would be willing to share some opinions?
I was looking to get a FairPhone 5 sometime soon anyways and randomly came across the option to get it "without Google"
Which took me a bit off guard because I never really considered that something like that could be an option (without the hassle of rooting a phone and slapping a custom OS on it). So - is it any good? It says that you can still install most regular Android Apps. I don't think I would miss any specific Google features, and getting a fresh start with a phone does sound nice.

To what extent should therapy hurt?
Heyo! Stupid question, but I've been double-guessing myself on this and would love some external input on things.
I've been in group therapy since October (so like, 5 or 6 sessions so far). It's an open mixed group, so people of any type of mental illness are free to come and go. The general aim of the group is Behavioral Therapy and it's led by two psychologists. Sessions consist of a short powerpoint presentation followed by worksheets to be filled out in groups of 3-4 people. Generally I think the topics of the sessions, like time management, emotional regulation, stress management etc. are chosen well and do cover a broad spectrum of knowledge.
But, my issue is that I just get completely emotionally flooded and on edge whenever I go there. Which is normal for me, I start crying every time I get put on the spot about my feelings anyways (I've cried every single time I have ever had to talk to a doctor about anything regarding my mental health). But I kinda assumed it might get bet

WIP of a larger character redesign I'm doing rn

Diagnose steht - nächstes Level: Psychiater finden (Raum Aachen)
War jetzt am Samstag beim Dr. Klinga, und wie erwartet steht die ADS-Diagnose.
Heute hab ich mich mal direkt auf die Suche nach einem Psychiater gemacht der Medikamente verschreiben kann. Im folgenden mal eine Liste der Stellen an denen ichs schon probiert habe und die ich schon auf dem Schirm hab, könnte ne ganz praktische Info für andere Leute im Raum Aachen sein;
❌ PIA am Alexianer
-> Wurde mir explizit vom Klinga empfohlen, telefonisch nicht erreichbar, persönlich war auch niemand anwesend als ich hingegangen bin, aber zumindest wurde auf meine E-Mail Anfrage geantwortet. Am PIA behandeln die kein ADHS sondern stellen nur Diagnosen.
❌ Gemeinschaftspraxis am Kapuzinerkarree
-> Telefonisch nicht erreichbar, also ging ich hin. Das letzte Mal das ich da war war vor fast 3 Jahren. Der Arzt bei dem ich früher war arbeitet da nicht mehr, also bin ich kein Patient mehr. Und für Neupatienten gibt es keine Termine, weil die Praxis bald umzieht.
❌ **Praxis Dr. Saltik (Alsdorf
