İnsanlar nasıl ev alıyor? Siz alabildiniz mi/ alabilecek misiniz?

Ailenin hiçbir şeyi yokken ev almak mümkün mü? Ben şu an yeni mezunum şanslıysam bir işe gireceğim yakında. Üni okuyan ilk nesilim. Gelirim ne olur bilmiyorum çünkü AI ben bölüme girdikten sonra sektörü tamamen kitledi yani belki bu alanda çalışmam bile. Neyse. Miras bakımından da hiçbir şey yok, yetim bir işçinin çocuğuyum. Annem babam da kiracı ben de öyleyim. En büyük hayalim ev almak. Ama nasıl mümkün olur, ne zaman mümkün olur bilmiyorum. İmkansız gibi geliyor.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way

Update: I found out what was going on and my initial frustration about it being yet another ADHD tax seems more relatable now. Turns out, I should not have any failed classes, at all. Elective or not. I have 4 failed electives in total. I thought they were optional. I’ve been laugh crying for the past hour. The student relations lady was kind and helped me find a couple of loopholes. I’m headed to school rn, this will either be handled within the hour if my teachers decide to pull some strings or I’ll have to go for another semester which isn’t that bad, considering the pickle I’m in.

———————————————-

I was supposed to be graduated. I attended the ceremony. My parents came. I told everyone. The first gen graduate, who had done it despite it all.

And now I learn I might not have. I… don’t know. It could be a problem with the system. We’ll know for sure tomorrow. But I have just learned that the credit system didn’t work the way I understood it. Yes, have just learned, 6 years into my uni education. What can I say? Classic me. Missing something that’s somehow obvious to everyone else . Hitting the giant wall they all dodged. Now I’m a liar until I call everyone one by one and face the shame. I haven’t graduated. Because of a very obvious, stupid mistake.

It’s one of those moments where I feel like everyone else read the book on “how to do life” except me. And I thought I had it figured out too, finally. That I had achieved something. And been riding that high since. Like a damn fool. I hate everything about this.

Bölüm dışı dersler seçmeliden sayılmıyor mu yardım edin

Arkadaşlar galiba mezun olamadım

Tek bildiğim 240 AKTS tamamlanması gerektiğiydi, şu an 241 var ama şimdi bunun 84’ünün seçmeli olması gerektiğini öğreniyorum.

62 AKTS bölüm içi seçmeli ders, 17 AKTS bölüm dışı seçmeli ders ve 5 AKTS bölüm dışı zorunlu ders var şu an. (Bana zorunlu değil, ama Z yazıyor) Hepsi toplam 84 ediyor. Ki ben seçimlerimi yaparken bölüm içi seçmeli olsa seçerdim ama hepsinde ya kontenjan doluyordu ya da başka derslerimle çakışıyordu. Bu yüzden bölüm dışına yöneldim.

Mezuniyetimin yansımamasını sistemsel gecikme sanıyordum ama sanırım gerçekten bu saçma sapan sebepten mezun olamadım. Şimdi ben bir dönem daha gidip 22 AKTS’lik seçmeli mi alacağım? O kadar seçmeli açılacak mı ve bu benim daha önce almadığım bir ders mi olacak? Tekrar ediyorum öyle bir ders olsa bu güne kadar alırdım yani aklım almıyor biri bana şu an edindiğim bilgilerin yanlış olduğunu söylesin. Ne yapacağım ya imdat

Gold ve civarı arkadaşlar ben deliriyor muyum

Hayatımda yaşadığım en pis lose streaki yaşıyorum ve sebebi troller. Feeder değil troll. Son 1 haftadır her 5 maçın 4’ünde kafayı yiyip bilerek besleyen veya basede tur atarak afk filtresinden kaçmaya çalışan insanlar denk geliyor. Bu tipler maça normal başlayıp en ufak şeyde full sövme moduna giriyorlar ve o saniyeden sonra feedera dönüşüp karşı takıma konum vermeye başlıyorlar. Ben gerçekten delirdiğimi düşünmeye başladım. Evet 5 maçtan belki sadece birinde normal bi takım geliyor bakın oynama tarzından bahsetmiyorum, birinin kötü oynaması sorun değil ama yemin ederim ben 1 haftadır ritonun lol bağımlılığını bıraktırma saha operasyon ekibiyle oynadığımı hissediyorum. Bu kadar denk gelmesi şanssızlıkla açıklanamaz neler oluyor biri ben de aynısını gördüm desin nolur bunu yaşayan tek ben olamam

Mezun görünmüyorum İMDAT

Bu bahar döneminde bütün mezuniyet şartlarını tamamladığımdan eminim. Onlarca kez kontrol ettim. Neden hâlâ aktif öğrenci görünüyorum?

Bilsiste mezuniyet ilerleme durumu diye bozuk bir sekme var. Bozuk diyorum çünkü orada yazan bilgiler gerçek değil. Örneğin müfredat durumda açıkça 128 kredim ve 241 AKTSm olduğu görünürken bu sekmede 64 kredi yazıyor. 5 tane zorunlu dersi de tamamlamadığım yazıyor. Ama hepsini verdim yani imkansız bu. Yazılımsal bir hata olabilir mi?

Yarın ilk iş öğrenci işlerine gideceğim ama içime bir korku düştü. Konuya hakim olan biri aydınlatırsa sevinirim

Stumbled upon what appears to be Oregon Grapes but I’m in Turkey so can’t be too sure

It’s so funny because I saw a post asking for id on a similar plant a few days ago on reddit (maybe the same one) and that’s how I learned what Oregon Grape even is. I don’t think anybody eats these here. The city I’m in has a semi-arid climate and maybe it’s close to how Oregon is? Idk

“Colorful people” described in near death experiences

I just saw a video where someone was telling the story of the woman who narrated what exactly she saw as she was dying. Right before the end, she says “colorful people, so beautiful”.

Which is bizarre to me because I saw them too, under anesthesia. I’ve had to minor surgeries and I’ve heard you can’t dream under anesthesia and for the second one that was true, but the first one… I remember people made out of white, pink, blue, green, any color light wandering. It was all dark except them and I tried to reach my hand to them as I laid on the table but couldn’t move. It didn’t feel like a dream, it was like I was there the whole time but also out of my body and my senses. I didn’t have a body at all, if that makes any sense. I only had my position.

My dr said I can get on glp-1s. I’m over the moon but my boyfriend thinks it’s dangerous

He said he would ask around for more info on them. Doesn’t help that we have a circle of hollistic friends. Anyone he asks will definetely oppose the idea.

I’m all for using conservative methods and traditional medicine. But I’m on the side that believes they’re complementary to modern medicine, not alternatives. If I could afford a lipo rn I would be getting it yesterday. And if I get a chance to hop on a drug that will help massively, I will.

Well in the end of the day it doesn’t matter what any of them think since I have the final say. I just don’t want to have that whole argument. Is it really a scary drug though? I’ve heard you can gain weight once you’re off them but I know I myself and I know I can use them to finally teach myself to eat mindfully and healthily. I’ve read many success stories as such. I’ve heard some stuff about thyroid issues but I don’t think I should worry about that more than I should worry about diabetes because that’s what runs in my family.

I need to know the list of the actual concerns without the fear mongering that’s rampant online with basically any drug. And I would love to hear about your experiences too.

I had a dream about offering perfume to a deity. Is this a sign?

It’s not exactly a dream, I tend to have a random thought pop in my head right before I fall asleep and it stays until the morning, making me wake up repeating the words in my head. The other day I woke up saying “congee, congee” like it was the most important thing in the world lmao. I had thought about it the night before.

So my mom offered to buy me a designer perfume as a graduation gift and last night before bed I was thinking I should pick one I like soon. Right before I fell asleep, I had an image pop into my head. Me spraying this perfume in the air where my “altar” is. “An offering to the goddess” the voice in my head said. I asked “who would I even be offering it to? Venus?” And then I saw the famous venus bust appear near the altar, catching the perfume.

It could be my wild imagination too of course but I’ve been working on my intuition and have recently asked out loud what message my deity had for me, just to try and see what would happen. If this happened to you, would you take it as a sign to pursue deity work?

I pissed off another witch and now I am in bandages

I am not saying they hexed me but I knew they were likely to- as soon as they got home. They literally hex ppl with their friends when they’re pissed. I cut my right finger the next day and my right foot the day after that. I am a clumsy person but having this many accidents in a row? Right after our fight? Coincidence??

Anyways. I need a protection spell y’all.

I’d rather be known as a raging b*tch than a pushover

This kid that I took care of every weekend for 2 years decided she could drink my beer the moment I turned my back when I told her no 17 times during the day. Boyfriend’s niece.

She kept asking to drink it all day and I kept telling her it was MY beer and she wasn’t allowed to touch it. I didn’t care about the beer honestly I just wanted to teach her about boundaries and that no means no. Also she’s 14, her mom might look the other way but I don’t like her drinking.

Her mom came to visit yesterday and I gave them the keys as I had something to take care of which resulted in them getting inside the apartment 10 minutes before I did. The moment I enter, I see her drinking the beer I told her not to touch.

So I start asking her how she got the audacity to touch my things and I told her “you know this is considered STEALING, right?”

Right when I say that my boyfriend comes and tells me I can’t be calling her a thief, this is her uncle’s house so she’s allowed to take whatever she wants. (Tbf he didn’t know that I specifically told her no prior to this at the time)

So I take my boyfriend’s phone and tell him I’ll be selling it tomorrow because what’s his is mine too. I was NOT bluffing btw. I go inside to factory reset the thing.

My boyfriend follows me inside and tells me his sister is leaving because of my “stealing” comment. I knew this would happen the moment the word left my mouth and it was an instant regret. I go outside to apologize to the mom for my comment and explain I was trying to be firm on a boundary, not keep food from her child. Which she knows I’d never do.

But the moment I walk out of the room I see the niece absolutely losing her shit, yelling she hates us both and cursing at us. And my boyfriend tells her she can’t yell in this household and tells her to gtfo.

The mom gets in between and starts yelling at the boyfriend. It’s chaotic. The mom says “I can’t believe you’re kicking us out like this” , I try to say “please don’t” but my voice isn’t heard. They leave in a hurry and I manage to slip in a “I’m so sorry” and they leave still cursing at each other on their way to the car.

Today I am trying to work up to courage to call her and tell her that I was trying to teach her about boundaries and I said a wrong word and I am sorry that I called her a thief.

It’s important to note that this trio always fights like this when they come together and then make up because that’s how they have always communicated I guess, so it’s nothing special. Also important for context, the niece has recently come out as trans (mtf) and dealing with her as a teenage girl rather than a teenage boy is something we’re all learning. Dealing with her drinking (and very unfortunately smoking) is something none of us can agree on and it does cause most of the fights between my boyfriend and her sister.

Bf’s sister has been nothing but nice, helpful and accommodating to me so far and even yesterday she didn’t say anything to me despite hating my comment. I get that, no mother would like their child being called that. I really like that woman and I would hate if our relationship were ruined because of this. She has me blocked on everything now.

But also, this kid can not go around touching my things behind my back if she spends every/ every other weekend at my house. I really didn’t care about that beer and I didn’t think she was a thief, I only meant to intimidate her a bit (like when you say you’ll call the cops on smaller kids) I really love her and I tried my very best to become an older sister figure for her. But she is unfortunately spoiled rotten and will take advantage of the adults around her if given the chance, so my scolding came from a caring place and not anger at all.

Anyways. If I manage to call her, I will only apologize about that one comment and other than that, they can both stay mad if they want. I am really sad and I regret what happened, but I won’t let them know. I am not a pushover, not anymore.

Aile arası kaosa sebebiyet vermeden baby trans yeğene ablalık yapmak - Tavsiyelerinize ihtiyacım var

Merhaba Cutetopia. Ben sevgilisiyle yaşayan ve muhtemelen yakında evlenecek olan bir kızım. Sevgilimin bir yeğeni var. Ablasının çocuğu. Kendisi 14 yaşında ve yakın zamanda bizlere (mtf) trans olarak açıldı.

Hayatındaki 3 yetişkin olarak farklı tepkilerimiz oldu. Ben onu alışverişe götürdüm ve dikkat çekmeden de olsa giyebileceği bazı şık parçalar aldım. Sonra hemen başka bir arkadaşımla buluşma ayarladım ve bu arkadaşım ona kendi cinsiyet uyum sürecini anlattı.

Erkek arkadaşım destekle karışık korkuyla yaklaştı. “Ya onu bizden alırlarsa? Ya biri uğraşırsa/ zarar verirse?” Yani özetle kimliğini desteklediğini beyan etmekle beraber reşit olup uyum sürecine resmi olarak girene kadar feminen görünmesine karşı çıktı.

Annesi ise ağladı falan ama çok karışmıyor. Büyük kaoslar çıkmadı yani. Ama arada bizi arayıp “ben ne yapacağım” diye dert yanıyor. Aslında annesine açılmamasını tavsiye etmiştim ama bizim kız durmuyor. Sürekli “makyaj da yapıcam, crop da giyicem” diye ortalığı inletiyor (my queen arkasındayım). Annesi de düşündüğümden ılımlı tepki verdi ama evde böyle ufak tefek atışıyorlarmış. Ben annesi de böyle böyle alışacak diye düşünüyorum.

Şimdi gelelim benim nasıl arada kaldığıma. Günlerden bir gün biz yeğenişkoyla yine uyum süreci detaylarını konuşuyorduk. “Psikoloğa gitmek gerekiyormuş, bana psikolog araştıralım” dedi ben de olur dedim. O gün sevgilim işten geldiğinde beni kenara çekti ve bir konuşma yaptık.

Şimdi bizim kız biz böyle konuşunca annesine gidip “dreamerbard abla bana psikolog bulacak, birlikte makyaj yapıcaz, alışverişe çıkıcaz” vs. diye anlatıyor haliyle. Anne de delleniyor bir tık. Dediğim gibi, kendisi çocuğuna kıyamıyor ama durumu tam olarak kabullenebilmiş değil. Zaten anlayamıyor da. Ben de neredeyse 50 yaşındaki doğulu bir insana nasıl anlatılır bilemiyorum. Sonuca gelelim. Onun gözünde ben onun çocuğunun belki de, bir umut, döneceği bir yola onu iyice sokan, işini kolaylaştıran insan oluyorum.

Evet amacım işini kolaylaştırmak. Birkaç yıla durumu iyice kabullenince verdiğim emek ona da daha mantıklı gelecek belki. Ama şu an çok erken. Ve ben kan bağım olmayan bir çocuğun hayatına keyfi müdahale eden random bir yetişkinim günün sonunda.

Yani özetle sevgilimin ablası bana bu sebepten cephe alırsa bu her şeyi etkileyecek. Kızın hayatında bir yere sahip olmamın ve böyle dokunuşlarda bulunabilmemin tek sebebi annesinin beni çok sevmesi ve güven duyması. Birkaç yıl içinde yurt dışına taşınma isteğimiz var, eğer başarabilirsek kızı da oraya çekmek, ona hak ettiği özgür hayatı yaşatmak istiyoruz. Ama aile arası köprüler yakılırsa bu her şeyi başlamadan bitirir.

Eğer annesi tamamen agresif yaklaşsa ve kabullenmese ben de acımaz köprüleri yakardım. Ama aksine annesiyle birbirlerini çok seviyorlar. Onların ilişkisini kötü etkilemek istemiyorum. Zaten her türlü verilecek bir savaşta günah keçisi de olmak istemiyorum. Bu sallantılı süreçten ikisinin de güçlü bir anne kız bağıyla çıkması ve bu kızın mutlu olması tek dileğim.

Şimdi bu kız gelip de “makyajımı yapar mısın” dediğinde kıramıyorum. Nasıl kırabilirim ben onun ablasıyım. Ama fotoğrafları çektikten sonra makyajı sildiriyorum. Ve bu aralar çok susuyorum. “Bu crop’u almayı düşünüyorum, bana yakışır mı?” Dediğinde “bunu giyemezsin” demeye dilim varmıyor. Ama giyemez. Giyecekse de, benden cesaret alıp giymemeli. Çünkü bu şekilde savaşırsa sadece ben onun hayatından dışlanmış olurum. Kendi savaşını kendi vermek zorunda. Maalesef bütün bunları 14 yaşında bir kıza nasıl anlatabilirim bilmiyorum bile.

Tavsiyelerinize açığım. Teşekkürler şimdiden

2 pictures from 5 years and 3 years ago (thinnest I’ve been) If only I had known there was no “getting thinner”

In the first picture I’m 20, working with a dietician, eating healthy and exercising regularly. Despite losing a lot of weight and looking overall great, I think I haven’t reached my goal weight because of my arms and legs. I think I should just diet and exercise harder. And that’s what I do.

TW: eating disorders

In the second picture I’m 22 and nearing the end of a period where I had some mental health issues and the girl you see there hasn’t eaten a “meal” in a year. She’s surviving on a single energy drink a day and of course, black coffee. At this point, she can’t even keep food down. She now fits into S and XS clothes like she has always dreamed but matter how thin she gets those arms and legs will just not budge. She thinks it’s her fault and that she’s not trying enough. Maybe if she hadn’t eaten that cracker a week ago…

Well a lot has played part in me getting an eating disorder but god DAMN if I could have just known… that it didn’t matter how much I tried, that it had nothing to do with how much I ate or exercised. Looking at these two pictures, I remember how healthy and normal my journey started and later how the sense of “failure” drove me to desperation to try and endure anything to be like the skinny girls just for once. I didn’t EAT y’all and I thought it was still my fault it never went away.

(Don’t worry though thanks to my amazing friends and partner and therapy I’m long rid of that problem. Now I’m 20 kgs heavier but also 20 times happier for it. )

u/dreamerbard — 28 days ago

An entire kilogram down. Superpowers awakened. In her prime.

From 8.3 kgs (18.2 lbs) to 7.05 kgs (15.5 lbs)

She’s 7!! Didn’t think it was possible with how sedentary she had become. Now she requests regular playtime like when she was a kitten. We still have a long way to go but I’m sure we’ll get there <3

Cat food arrived WARM and slightly bulging

Second pic for comparison, non-bulged tin on the left

I ordered online but I believe these came from the store just one street over. 400- 500 meters away at most. (I normally buy from that store but there was a discount on their website) Since I’ve been to the store before, so I know these don’t sit under the sun there. The warmth I felt must be from transportation. It’s just generally very hot out. There’s some slight bulging on some of them and all the other cans and tins felt slightly warm to the touch.

Are these safe to feed the cats?
