I never knew there was a sunflower seeds reddit and I love it!

I just got done snacking on some seeds, (Davids reduced sodium) and I noticed that there is a spot on my tongue that's sore. Does that happen to anyone else? I'm guessing it's from cracking the seeds open, I use the tip of my tongue to help separate the shell and seed.it almost feels like I burned my tongue a little, like when you accidentally drink your coffee too soon and then your tongue feels weird the rest of the day.

I'm 31. In my 20s I got in a bit of financial trouble by maxing out a credit card that had $2000 credit, and co signing for a car for my God mother who ended up back stabbing me.

The car loan that had $5000 remaining has been charged off. I'm just taking that as a loss, my mental health can't take dealing with my God mother and her narcissistic behavior. My credit was in the 760s when I co signed and now it's just under 600. I'm just trying to build it back up.

I got a credit line through PayPal. The limit is $900 I use PayPal for my main banking account. I like that I can see my credit balance right next to my regular account. I have ADHD so that really helps my "out of sight out of mind" issues. I need advice on if I am going about this the right way.

My personal rules for my PayPal credit.

I won't charge more than $100

I won't charge anything before paying 50% of what my last charge was. So for example I got some new fall shoes that were $48. I then wanted to charge a Christmas present for my niece so I went and paid $24 before adding a new charge.

I will pay off the whole thing before PayPal tells me that I have a minimum due.

I won't charge anything that I don't immediately know I will be getting the funds for in the next week.

I'm hoping that this will help bring my credit up. I'm fighting to get disability right now and am doing freelance jobs (I make fliers for businesses and I am a digital artist)

Please tell me if I am going about this the right way.

Today I helped my niece with a scraped knee and after I patched her all up I told her she was "right as rain" and it got me thinking about all the little phrases I use in my everyday life. Now I'm from Vermont, in the US. In a bigger picture I'm from New England. These are some phrases I use or have heard my whole life.

"Right as rain"

"Raining cats and dogs"

"Wicked" this one is used mostly as a replacement for VERY for example "That's wicked cool!, it's wicked hot" or as an exclamation person A "look at my new car" person B "Wicked!" I've been told this is a very new England thing

How are you doing? "just peachy" or "peachy keen"

"Pot calling the kettle black" this is one that I know the meaning in which it's being said, I just don't understand the literal sentence because it's used kinda like calling out a hypocrite but all pots and kettles I've seen are silver not black. (Also I'm autistic sometimes I take things TOO literal)

"Happy as a clam" (I've also heard "happy as a Lark")

"Bite the bullet"

"Excuse my French!"

I'm rewatching and I'm at the episode with the man Tony who is Gay or Bi gets caught trying to be intimate with a man.I don't remember having such a hard time watching this episode as I am now. Maybe it's because I have close friends now who are LGBT. My BFs sibling is non binary and before they came out that way they had always been a proud lesbian with an amazing wife. Hearing how Tony is being treated and how his wife is being treated, hearing Dr. Turner brings up conversion therapy. It breaks my heart. Like obviously I know it's how it was in that time. That they are just accurately portraying the time.

Does anyone wonder if Dr Turner really would have been that understanding? I mean back than if you were homosexual, you obviously lost your job and family (if you didn't wind up in jail) and probably wound up in the east end. So maybe he has seen it a lot more than say a doctor in "proper" london. He's also a smart man and I feel would know there isn't anything wrong with them. What are all your options on this episode?

Does anyone else have an issue with in game purchases? 9/10 times when I go to purchase something in games, and it's not just one app it's almost all of them, my game will crash mid purchase and when I go back into the game I don't have what I purchased but get charged anyway and need to go to the play store refund page and request a refund, luckily I normally get the money right back but it's so frustrating!

Today I was told by a family member that it is extremely odd and taboo to have a therapy session at the coffee shop. My therapist does have an office and sometimes we do meet there but other times we go to the local coffee shop, sit at the park, go to the horse barn (she's also a licensed equine therapist). I saw my cousin in the coffee shop during my recent session. It was just a quick "hi, bye" and after they messaged me asking who the woman I was with was, I told him that it was my therapist, that we were having a session and he told me that that was extremely inappropriate that therapists shouldn't have private sessions in public like that. That he was going to report her. Now I'm not worried about that, my cousin wouldn't know who or how to report my therapist, I don't think I even told him her last name. But is that really weird that we got coffee and talked instead of sitting in her office?

Edit for context. I have social anxiety so this helps with that a lot. If I feel I'm going to have an emotional session then I tell her ahead of time that I want to meet in her office. I'm in a really rural area and the coffee shop we meet at is hardly populated in the middle of the day so half the time it's just me and her and the worker on the other side of the shop not paying attention to us. I meet with her every week and a lot of the time it's just us talking about how my week went.

So every week I take a Clorox wipe and clean my electronics. Phone, tablet, laptop,switch, and kindle. Just to clean off any grime that's gotten on them through the week. Today my brother saw me doing this and said "wow your ADHD is strong" I asked what he meant and he told me "Only the SPEDS are that anal about cleaning" I just rolled my eyes, you know stupid brother saying stupid shit. Is it seriously so weird to wipe down the devices I use daily with a Clorox wipe. It's just a quick 5 minute task I do once a week.

I was taking Phentermine for a year and my doctor took me off of it two days ago. So far I'm having wicked diarrhea, I am so tired but I can't sleep, I keep getting bouts of chills. Like I'll be fine and then something will make me cold and I'm just shivering for hours. I'm having trouble focusing. And just an overall blah feeling. Anyone else experience this?

I used to really enjoy shopping. I live in the middle of nowhere and Walmart is the go to place to shop. I swear I CANNOT go there anymore. It is the most overstimulating place in the world since they remodeled and started curb orders/online orders.

So my Walmart up until a few years ago had a Dunkin in it so you could sit down while you were done shopping and waiting for friends or something. They got rid of that and there is now only one place to sit, a bench in front of the pharmacy. So when the store is getting overstimulating I have no where I can sit for a minute and gather myself.

When Walmart remodeled I swear the lights got brighter, the store got so crowded you're almost always in someone's way whether it's another shopper or a worker putting orders together or a stocker. Everything is so loud, you don't hear music anymore it's all announcements and the high pitch beeping of registers.

When I get overwhelmed I need to take a few minutes to myself and normally if I just step aside i can take a few breathes and I'm alright. If it was too bad I would check out, and go sit at dunkin at the front of the store I can't do that in Walmart anymore. If I check out they tell me that I can't go to the pharmacy to sit because I can't go back in the store after checking out, they have no where to sit, they don't even have benches outside anymore.

I know this all must seem so random but my sister wants me to go to Walmart with her in the afternoon so she has back up and is not alone there with her three kids.

My nails are absolutely awful. I have hypothyroidism so my nails are in terrible shape. They are brittle and have ridges. I'm also a chronic nail picker. Normally I use nail wraps on my nails almost all the time. It's the one thing that I have found that keeps me from picking my nails.

The other day I saw a video from a tiktoker Vintage Dusties about OPI bringing back some old fan favorite colors and I ABSOLUTELY fell in love with the shade "Every Month is Oktoberfest" it has to be one of the most beautiful shades I've ever seen.I hate how my natural nail looks painted because it really makes the ridges so obvious and nail polish doesn't keep me from picking. I decided to get a set of clear fake nails on Amazon. I've never really used fake nails because I never liked the lengths I saw but the ones I found on Amazon are about the length I keep my nails. So I have some questions.

Which is better for long term use? Sticky tabs, glue or both? I see there is now glue that is applied with a brush, is that better?

Is it better to paint the nails before I apply them?

I see some people buff their natural nail before application for better adhesion, the nails I got are pre filed on the inside so do I still need to do that to my natural nail?

Does OPI need a top coat? I know a lot of higher quality nail polishes don't. This is probably the most I have ever spent on a nail polish haha. I always just bought the $1 bottles from Walmart or dollar tree.

Also please tell me I'm not the only one who absolutely fell in love with "Every Month is Oktoberfest" it has to be the most beautiful nail polish I have ever seen. When I saw Vintage Dusties video I audibly gasped and said to my mom "shit, I think I'm about to spend $12 on a nail polish"

I just got the notification that my glasses shipped. How does it normal take for them to come. I'm in Vermont. I know they will get here when they get here I'm just excited to get my new glasses. Mine broke recently

I was wondering if anyone knew when/if the proshot will be streaming. I live in the middle of nowhere and the closest theater to me that's playing it is 3 hours away. Please tell me this will be streaming soon. I try not to watch slime tutorials (though when I tried to look one up I couldn't find a good quality)

For me it's touch aversion. I always heard how autistics hate being touched and I always thought it was how media made it look, that ANY touch was unwanted, that if you were autistic that meant you absolutely freaked out and melted down if someone touched you. Recently, like really recent, this was a shower thought that turned into a "Oh wait..." Moment, I was thinking about something that happened yesterday with my boyfriend. We were driving around with a friend and saw that the town we were in was having a street fair. My friend suggested that we go and I immediately shot it down because one of my triggers is a sudden change in plans and I was already overstimulated from shopping and being in a busy town. My boyfriend could tell I was getting anxious and overwhelmed and he just gently laid a hand on my shoulder and I IMMEDIATELY shrugged it off and shook my head (he's amazing though he just nodded knowing I couldn't be touched) . It got me thinking about how I'm always like that when I'm upset, I don't want to be touched unless I seek it out and or know it's going to happen. Then I was thinking about how when I'm with my mom and she'll do ya know the mom thing of grabbing me cause I have lint on me or something and I have the same reaction of shrugging her away or swatting (gently) her hand away and I realized, oh shit...ya I have aversion to touch.

Hello I am relatively new to the game, I've been playing for a couple weeks. I am now in the Brutal phase of the campaign trying to get 3 stars on it all. I am using Elhain at level 60, fully ascended, and Vallaryn at level 60 fully ascended. I'm coming up against monsters and bosses that are level 80-100. How am I supposed to beat them if there is no way to level pass 60?

I grew up in a household where we followed Jesus and his teachings but we also talked about mother nature and talked about how we don't truly understand anything.

I have been trying to pin "what" I am belief wise and I think I've found out this. I believe in God and Jesus. That God created the world and that Jesus was sent to us to remind us what we're supposed to be. Kind and to honor our creator. I also believe fully in my heart that there are things in this world that we will never understand that religious leaders just pass off as sinful or not of God. That there is way more to the spiritual side of everything that they pass off as "not of God".

I remember when I was little and learning about mythology and all the different gods I had told my mom "I wonder if all these gods people believed in were all just God and they just didn't know they were thanking the same person" she told me I was wise beyond my years for that revelation. As I got older I was ashamed for wanting to learn more about mythologies. I remember I had told my friends dad, who was a preacher that I had signed up for a religious studies class in highschool and he told me that that was going against the church, that I shouldn't desire to learn about "false religions".

I've been living my life just following the most important thing Jesus commanded "Love one another as I have loved you" I don't worry about all the other little things I just go through life with no ill intent or feelings towards others.

I grew up with a friend whose family was big into spiritualism. My friends aunt is named Sali Crow, if you ever wanna look her up, she's pretty cool. But growing up around that family I learned about respecting the earth and giving back to it, about how important intentions are.

So I think to end my little rant, thought vomit, I think my beliefs are that I am not 100% sure what's out there, that I know there is something out there that created us, that Jesus definitely was from it or had a connection to this higher power. So many religions had similar stories, prophecies, proclamations that I know there's something out there going on in the world. So I'm gonna go with what Jesus said and love others as he loved me, I'm gonna thank the earth and God for the upcoming harvest on August 1st (Lughnasadh) maybe sprinkle some cinnamon outside my house because I've been told it's good for setting good intentions for the season maybe light a sage candle for clensing negativity.

So it's 4:45am. I'm staying at the Wyndham and I woke up to a loud rumble that I swear to God is thunder. I checked the weather app and see it's not storming or is it supposed to storm. I keep hearing this noise every couple minutes. Is it thundering or has the heat got to me and I finally lost my mind. Also before anyone asks, no I'm not from Boston. I'm from a tiny, less than 300 people small town.

**Edit Alrighty. Things I have learned this morning. I am extremely uneducated about the city. The noise I'm hearing is the subway. Subways also go above ground. It's not only underground like in the movies. I am not meant for city life. If left alone I would probably die...on the subway... wondering why it's above ground. /s
