How long did it take you get to get the splits from a complete beginner?

I’m kind of flexible, but not athletic in any sense. I’ve always wanted to learn the splits, I’m 22, 114 lbs, 5’4 if any of that matters.

In your personal experience, how long did you practice and how long did it take you to reach a middle split?

I wouldn’t mind practicing every single day if it’ll get me there quicker.

Also any best routine / advice ?

Insane amount of AI porn and NSFW advertisements? How to get rid of it if I’m not interacting with posts.

Hi. I do not use Facebook often. I do not watch porn or interact with any pornographic content or only fans advertisements of posts. In fact, I deleted Facebook due to all the pornographic ads but as soon as I have it installed for less than an hour, I’m receiving all of these ai porn advertisements. It’s honestly getting me into trouble with my partner and I can’t really understand why. As soon as Facebook is reinstalled it immediately attacks my Instagram and makes me look guilty of algorithm.

Why is this ? Even when I don’t click on them I mean I will have this installed for not long, scroll on reels then all these anime NSFW games, ai create porn with “no limits” starts popping up. It’s disgusting and almost paedophilic. Why is this happening or how can I prevent it even if I’m clicking not interested??

Is lasik worth it for me? (Pros cons?)

I’m F22, I’ve worn glasses since I was about 8 for distance. I struggle seeing objects, words, faces from far away. I hate wearing my glasses, often will take them off when using my phone up close.

I have astigmatism in my right eye -5.00 and my left eye is -4.75 and I currently work as a nurse.

I’ve always wanted to go through with it but some people have thrown me off it saying that they’ve needed reading glasses again a few years down the line, or have constant floaters and light sensitivity.

AITAH for not coming in while sick but requested in?

I work in a dental clinic. I’ve been forced to move medical appointments, denied sick days to the point I’ve been put on waiting lists and have to miss my lunch to make these medical appointments. Every single time I’ve asked to have a sick day off, I am ALWAYS told to come in because we are “understaffed.”

Recently, we lost a member of staff who will not be coming back and will not have a replacement.
They do not share the same role in work as me but now all of us have to share duties that we barely have time to do.
We NEVER have anyone spare apparently.
Or In other words they’d rather have me come in SICK and nurse with patients rather than have one receptionist.

Today I messaged my boss at 6am and explained I hadn’t felt well through the week and asked for somebody to cover my shift as I feel very sick this morning.

The response I got was “Sorry to hear that. Can you please come in this morning as also short with ___”

( ____ meaning the role of staff who has left and isn’t coming back.)

I did not reply to this message and tried to go back to sleep and get more rest. I still feel horrible.

Am I the asshole if I don’t show up when I’ve informed work I am sick but been told to come in regardless?

I haven’t had a sick day off in months due to always being told to come in due to being “understaffed”

I was a victim of child pornography.

I was a victim of child abuse and pornography and my view of men will never change. I can’t handle social media.

TRIGGER WARNING MENTIONS OF CHILD ABUSE, CHILD ABUSE CONTENT, MOLESTATION, INCEST.

Hi. I’ve posted on this thread and deleted posts a lot. I get anxious people will recognise my Reddit and nosey.

I’ve been struggling with the state of the world lately, in fact it’s rapidly increasing my depression and distressing thoughts.

I’ll give you some major context without the details. I (22F) was molested in my sleep by a drunk family member multiple times from ages 11-13. I was raped at 14 by my first partner and between these incidents I was actively groomed online and I had a LDR, I was being groomed until I reached legal age and my partner was extremely porn addicted which later led him to asking me to call him “Dada”. Another partner I ended up finding child pornography on their phone.

I also became a victim of child pornography; including my school uniform and face. I have no idea where those videos are now.

It seems like a never ending shit show of situations I probably got myself into. I’ve spent a lot of time blaming myself for getting myself into them. Another part of me tells myself that this is the only dynamic I knew, it was comforting and “normal”.

It permanently changed my view of men. I did not fully realise how wrong everything I had been through was, and didn’t process it until the recent years. I refuse to have children and I am an extreme unapologetic misandrist due to my trauma despite being aware that it is “not all men” before somebody gets offended.

Recently, I’ve been struggling sexually. I gave up pornography due to being addicted and I found with today’s porn categories, society, and my trauma brain - it was bad news. Due to the dynamics I grew up with sexually, I became attracted to very taboo categories and little space coping.

Deep down? Yeah I know it’s wrong, insanely wrong to the point I can feel almost nauseous and cry. I feel broken that my brain was changed in such a way that I can’t comprehend. I miss being treated like an object during sex, specifically sex, I miss being innocent and unaware and treated badly, hit, choked, used. I feel like my body responds to these things but when it comes to genuine care? Nope.

My LDR groomed me into such a “father/boyfriend” dynamic that it was hard to go back to a normal relationship. I find myself wanting to regress in places I shouldn’t regress and acting in ways that are morally wrong - REGARDLESS if it’s to cope and no harm done.

For example, I know people use little space to cope and that it can be healthy for them. Then I see other people taking an (in my opinion) unhealthily approach to letting their partner act as a father, and entertain them sexually in this little space. That is wrong on both parts.

Entertaining thoughts like this is what got me here.

I feel insanely guilty. My sex life with my partner sort of died too. I want to feel turned on but my body shuts off at the thought of him touching me. Sometimes if I can get past foreplay, sex will feel good - but my body won’t respond and I freeze. I put it down to our relationship issues but honestly it could be a lot of things.

But this isn’t just about sex, I feel like I at times can act like a fully functioning, morally superior adult woman who does not take shit and can call all this behaviour as wrong. Then there’s other times it feels like I haven’t healed at all and I’m right back in a trauma brain and can’t explain myself.

Social media is getting to me. I don’t know if anyone else has seen an increase number in pedophilia on social media, rather it be predator catchers being pumped out for views such as the recent Hullo and Jidion, or the increases of social media directing people to child pornography on other apps.

Telegram is a terrible app that is commonly used for drugs and pornography. CP might I add. It is where I found one of my partners hidden albums via a secret screenshot app.

Ever since it happened, I can’t unsee the children’s faces from the album. It makes me sick and I often cry about it when I remember. It makes me want to die.

I won’t go into details, but I remember they had to hold up a sign of paper with their name or a username and age, and it just took me back to when I also had to do that and make similar content at that age.

I’ve heard from multiple people, people I know in real life and I’ve seen it in the comments of TikTok’s, directing people to telegram for child pornography under children’s views. I hate the world we live in.

Anime is ruined for me. Men with their fan service, lolicons and using the “But shes 5,000 years old” lore logic to prove their anime character they goon after isn’t a child.

I know I need therapy. I can’t access therapy right now and couldn’t access an online therapy as I am not in an environment safe enough to talk about these things yet.
I just feel like I can no longer handle being so aware of the world. It’s depressing me.

I can’t deal with social media, learning or hearing about another victim. I can’t handle the guilt of my own thoughts, abuse and the fact I cannot prevent any abuse.

I have nobody to talk to all of this about. I feel like I’m going to explode one day and just straight up not be able to take it anymore. I can’t handle society. I’m tempted to delete social media for a while - I have zero friends, it would be easy but I have a lack of hobbies to fill in the gaps of doom scrolling.

Hello. I know this is a silly question since removing teeth doesn’t necessarily mean your facial structure or appearance would change however, I am a dental nurse myself and I do see how occasional teeth removal can affect how peoples faces look. I’ve also seen the occasional people on Reddit who have said that it made their face either more round/square or more defined and chisel.

I have a very rotated outwards upper right wisdom tooth that bites into my cheek, and a lower right wisdom tooth with is rotated in towards my tongue and very painful.

I want to get these two removed. I wonder if removing the upper tooth that sticks out into my cheek would make my cheek look a little less puffed out?

Also I’m just worried about feeling uneven in my bite having two other wisdom teeth on the other side which aren’t as rotated or giving any bother.

I have an uneven face already, so I was worried if my face may look different.

I’m 22, I work as a nurse and I’m unconfident with showing my face in content for those reasons. I have a partner who’s coming around to the idea of as a side thing as I find making content and dressing up fun.

How long did it take you to see a profit?
How long did it take you to gain a following?
Can you get away with not showing your face?
How did you manage to get word out without using your main social media?

As a victim, the idea that pedophilia is a thing and actively happening and you’d never know and be able to stop half the shit that’s happening is ruining my life. Every day this breaks me down and I’m so fucking depressed I want to die. I genuinely trust no man and accuse them all and I’ll never believe anything different. I wish the earth would swallow me whole before I do. I can stand it. I can’t stand the state of the world and it’s depressing and killing me so much that I just honestly want to kill myslef I can’t stand to live another twenty fourth fucking years to see the state do the world get worse when will it end I’m only 22 and I feel like I’m ready to die.
