  1. Hey Crash, Glad you found the community, I hope you enjoy your time here! I love Skyrim, though I haven't played in a good while. Do you go by Crash because of the Crash Bandicoot games, by chance?
  2. Sounds like her business has seen a spike, I'm happy for her! Unfortunately I'm currently up north and even when I visit my family down south I never go to Atlanta. I've only been to Georgia like once haha. If, for whatever reason, I'm down in Atlanta, I'll keep this place in mind. I hope that she continues to see success in the diaper business!
  3. aahh I somehow didn't upload the screenshot. Yakko/Wakko/Dot were at boot camp, and when they were getting their uniforms there was a box in the background labeled "diapers"
  4. Oh well it sounds like it's not that bad! I've never lived in a studio but I've seen a few and they're never much for space. So when you said "two of us in a studio" I went =o. But at least you're positive about it! Also: you're keeping the same roomie so like all should be well!
  5. I don't really understand everyone's negative reactions. It's $1.25. It's less than the cost of a coke (at most places). Having a balance on a loan is a pretty black-and-white matter in my mind. You owe money, therefore you pay it. Don't get petty over just a few pennies! I knew a guy who, for idk even what reason, had to mail the IRS something like 30 cents. So he mailed them 30 checks for a penny each. What the hell. What in the actual hell (he is older than me, he's supposed to be an adult!). Pay off the loan, don't do anything dumb for your credit score, open up a bottle of wine (or a beer if that's what you prefer), go on with your life. The electric company situations sound awful, Betty and Jeff. But like Betty said, it's a problem of inflexibility. Ground workers should be able to do more than they can. I've never had anything that was that bad, but when I do call companies it's always been a little too obvious that they're reading from a screen. But that situation is slightly different than still owing money on a loan.
  6. You're currently living in a studio, or you're moving to a studio? If it's the latter, I would tell your new roomie that you have a ton of these things. Not sure of your exact situation, but adding another human being to a studio living space will probably already be a tight fit, yet alone with so many diapers. So, tell them that you have a lot of diapers as a gesture of good faith. Better that than you showing up at the door with a ton of boxes. Be super up-front and transparent, since this person is letting you stay with them. Best case scenario, they'll have an idea/access to a storage space via their landlord etc etc. This might not be an option for you since you're having an emergency move, but if I were you I would also consider getting my own storage unit for the duration of your stay there. Just another thing to put on the list of possibilities.
  7. I read that article this morning, I'm glad I checked the forums before making another topic dedicated to the same thing! It's a neat idea by the company! They seem to be having fun with it, which is always nice! The comments section is full of people who are missing the point, though.
  8. Hey Elfy, you're definitely allowed to write a "woe is me" post! We're only human! I don't really like to go onto the chat for, I think, the same reasons that you don't like the chat. There is for sure an obsession with RPs and the conversation topics just move very quickly. I also think that the boards and the chat consist of, to an extent, a different group of people (the handful of times I have been in the chatroom, I've only seen people who I haven't seen on the forums). So, like, I'm glad that the chat is there and I'm glad that people enjoy it, but it's not for me and I totally understand where you're coming from on the chat thing. As for people who don't talk to you after you tell them that they broke a rule (even a paltry one): that's them. You can't blame yourself because someone else was acting like a big baby! You were doing your job and trying to be a good admin, they exploded not you! It sucks when it has to be a person that you liked/were friendly with, but if you lost them as a friend over something as paltry as that, then they probably weren't worth being your friend anyway. It sounds like I'm telling you a lot of "it's not you, it's them" stuff. But like it also sounds like you might could maybe possibly use some help with the being in public thing. I'm not really certain if that's something that you could/should see a doctor about but I'd like to ask you to consider seeing a doctor over that. I'm not your mother, you said you're happy with your introvertedness, but like: consider it! If you could lose your flat over just losing one person then it could be that your shyness is getting in the way of you living your life (okay mom rant over). I'm sorry that you lost a friend over being bisexual. I wouldn't say that I've lost any friends over being queer myself, so I don't know if I can speak on this as much, but I honestly feel the same thing applies: they weren't actually your friend if they let that get to them. And I know that that sucks when you're friends with them for so long and you were just trying to be open and be yourself. Anyway. I doubt that any of that was helpful. Not only did I respond to like .2% of the stuff you talked about, but my advice is rarely sage. Like I said, though: you're allowed to write a "woe is me" post, so no eye rolling on my end of the screen! Feel free to shoot me a PM if you need a ear to vent on and stay strong! I know that we're not buddy-buddy/BFFs to the grave, but I wouldn't classify myself into the group of people who don't like you (in fact, I think that that group is smaller than you think!)!
  9. I'm about 2 and a half hours to your east (in Indiana!).
  10. Got my ABU sample in today, not impressed with the tapes. Anyone else have issues there?

  11. Just ordered a sample pack of ABU Little Paws and Space (though it was hard to pick between space and simple)! Let's see when they get here!!

  12. Pretty sure that TeddyCon happens in PA every year!
  13. I've looked at ABU's Little Paws so much that ABU's page for that diaper comes up as a slide when I open a new tab! They're ssoo cute but ssoooooo expensive

      I might have to do the same!

  14. Hi Diaperedbaby86, I just want to point out a few things: 1) asking for free diapers when you just made your account is looked down upon 2) It seems that you made this topic, and then went and made another topic with a photo of you in a diaper. I'm sure that if you hang around for a while, and let people get to know you, that you would be able to find someone willing to help you out. People who make topics like this right after they make an account will usually be the target of scarcastic comments like "sure you can have my used ones." So, you should let us have the pleasure of your company for a little bit before asking for such a big favor! Other than that, I can only advise that you check out Craigslist and/or the local Goodwill. You'll sometimes be surprised!
  15. You know what though, I know that it's easy to feel like you have to have someone. *SO* much of society builds on the idea that happiness comes from being a part of a (heterosexual) couple. I feel like you'd be hard pressed to find a movie (in almost any genre) in which two characters were set up to "end up" together. I don't listen to the radio because every song, again in almost every genre, is about love or breakups or finding the right person. So, this is an idea that is easy to internalize. Forget that, man. Like, seriously. You don't have to have a partner to be happy. Yes: society says you have to have a partner to be happy (and that that partner is straight). But you can construct your own reality in which that is not true. Yes: you need friends. Yes, you need to interact with people. But you don't need to feel down just because you don't have a S/O. I want you to be happy, so I want you to have an S/O if that would make you happy. But like overall I think that society needs to start thinking about whether or not an S/O is necessary in order to live out a full/meaningful/happy life. (Aro/ace: out)
  16. ^ Insightful, to be sure. And yea I've gone through some....disillusionment with the department/school here this semester, and I've been keeping a passive tab on jobs that I could apply for (though this is semester 2 of the MA phase). So, yea I'd say that that adds to the anxiety/stress.
  17. I'm glad for some positive replies. I was going to go today, and I even walked by the room, but I chickened out. I think there's just some anxiety involved in going. Betty you can ramble don't worry xD. And to reply to Jason, I honestly don't see my advisor that much. I reach out to him about twice a semester to just check up on things and get his approval/thoughts on classes that I'll take in the future. I had a meeting with him last week in which we discusses the MA exit exam (I'm getting a masters in the humanities, that might help contextualize things) and that reduced some long term anxiety because he gave me a few good tips and resources. Otherwise, he doesn't reach out to me to check-in. Which I don't blame him for, honestly, he's a prof, he's busy. But everyone else I talk to about him seems to think that he could do a better job. I don't know. He's pretty good when I reach out to him. So I think he's holding up his end of the deal just fine. I will say that I will hopefully be able to switch advisors, not because I dislike my current one, but because I want to switch to someone who specializes in something that is more attuned to my interests. And I will DEFINITELY say that I day dream a lot about how I'm going to spend the summer. I've definitely identified a few tricks that I need to get get a (better) hold on. One of those things, as you mentioned, is planning. I'm hoping that I can just survive this semester and then once I get the chance to breath I hope to meticulously plan out my summer (with daily/weekly/monthly goals). I'm doing a lot of things this summer (summer class, studying for MA exit exam, moving, thesis research assuming that I get to write a thesis - something still up in the air), so doing everything will be difficult. But I've asked a few colleagues (advisor included) if my goals are reasonable and I've gotten a solid "yea but you'll be busy." Which I'm okay with (although, I got the same answer from people last semester when I told them I'd be taking 3 classes and teaching 2 sections, and this is where it got me). Thanks again for the replies. Maybe tomorrow I won't chicken out when I get to the counseling building!
  18. I'm going to agree with Minachan. They're just pointless to me. I never thought about the shock value to those unfamiliar with the diaper fetish, but that probably is a thing that happens. Given that I don't find anything interesting about them, though, I tend to avoid them. I like seeing people in diapers, sure, but there's nothing fun about watching a those videos. Man I feel like I just regurgitated Mina's post haha.
  19. I'm going to (try to) be short and sweet! I decided to post this here because it has to do with mental health, though maybe not necessarily depression. Feel free to move to the U of Peenix forums if this is more applicable there! I've been doing graduate school for a year now. This semester has been VERY difficult and I've gone through a lot of disillusionment. I've been super stressed out since literally day 2 of the semester. I've been in my office every day this semester (weekends included, obvs) working or at least trying to work. I've gotten to the point where I can't focus on anything anymore (actually, I got to that point about 5 weeks ago). I'm thinking that the stress level has been breaking me down, and I'm kinda surprised that I've made this this far tbh. I think that I need to go talk to a school councilor or something, because this isn't going to get better as the end of the semester approaches (2 weeks left!). I'm taking more classes than recommended, so the stress levels are way up there. The thing that makes me think that I should see a councilor (read: school therapist) is that last Friday I had the weirdest mood swing in which I was AGGRESSIVELY energetic and positive for like 2 hours. Then I had NO energy (physical/mental/emotional) whatsoever. I walked only a part of the way to my car before I gave up and took a rest somewhere (to be fair the weather was nice). Then the other night (or maybe last night), I'm pretty sure that I blinked and 30 minutes passed. Granted, I was on Facebook but it didn't feel like that typical "oh I lost track of time" thing. It felt like I read a status, blinked, and 30 minutes had gone by when I was on the same page. I've tried googling "time gap" and stuff like that to see if this is a thing, but I get results for totally not related stuff so I think maybe I'm just making up things. I feel stupid walking into a psych services office on a university campus and saying "hey I'm stressed what can I do?" because there's probably 30 000 other kids who are in the same boat. But it's gotten to the point where I'm no longer confident in my ability to manage it anymore. I feel like I've done everything I can, and that I need to get a professionals opinion on how to increase my ability to focus and reduce my stress levels. There are a few other factors playing around that I won't get into in detail, such as my position as a graduate student, and the new stuff that I've implemented into my routine thanks to a google search for "reduce stress" (read: cardio and bigger breakfast). My question, really, for y'all is: should I go see someone? I honestly feel like an idiot trying to seek help for an issue that everyone else has. But I'm seriously considering going in tomorrow and the only thing stopping me is this anxiety over whether or not it's dumb. Thanks for the read. Sorry I haven't posted much in the community lately. Don't worry, though, I still lurk from time to time!
  20. I definitely agree on the high price tag. For that same amount of money you could get a good amount of diapers that I knew were good for me, and/or I could try get a bag of new diapers to try out. Despite that, though, I really LOVE this idea! Yes, I'm a vanilla DL and yes I'm very comfortable with that label. But I wouldn't mind at all trying out stuff made for other niches. So for people like me, who don't mind getting stuff that's outside of their usual ballpark, and for people who are maybe in between labels this is a nice idea. On the other hand, this might not be something that people would want to get every month. I can see someone getting this and deciding that they didn't like having a mixture of stuff, or I can see someone canceling their subscription once they found their "niche" (i.e. sissy, DiaperFur, etc). But, money talks so I think I'll have to pass on this one. I do have to admit that if this was $10-15 less, then I might have signed up and not thought about it!
