Kenneth 12345 - Corresion expert .

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 10, 2019:

https://agnostic.com/member/kenneth12345/posts He is a different corrosion expert. He did quote the buybull in one of his responses to a post. He had made two stupid posts, pictures of a large group of people, all of the wearing black and I think all male. I didn't look that closely. His English is good, however I'm sure I have read it before. His responses though limited are good English. Claims to be from Rowlett, TX, but travels the world. In his profile picture he is sitting at a desk in front of a wall that ways Ahiska Turkish American Council. I don't get how that fits with corrosion expert. He is quite swarthy, so maybe Turkish. He's following a bunch of gals, mostly from Texas, some from all over. Methinks he art a scammer.

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 9, 2019:

I love my instapot. I cook all sorts of stuff in it. I often use it for batches of quinoa or other grains that I freeze up serving size and then add to meals as needed. I use it often when the kids are coming over for dinner. I made a Tangine in it once, the house smelled delicious for hours. I use it for a slow cooker, I have made yogurt in it, sweet potatoes, and hard boiled eggs to name a few. I use it for a steamer.

Do you meditate?

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 9, 2019:

I read a book by Dan Harris called 10% Happier. That led me to my current practice.

Do you meditate?

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 9, 2019:

I started meditating about 7 months ago when I parted ways with a job that was very stressful. I think meditation has made me calmer and a better person. I know it usually helps me sleep better. I started a new job 5 weeks ago, I have been lax in my meditation practice, but I know I feel less anxiety when I do meditate. There is nothing religious about it, though when I was a practicing xian I did some meditation then. I don't consider it a religious practice. I use an app called Calm. It is good stuff.

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 9, 2019:

I appreciate your efforts so very greatly. You do good work. Just a quick idea, when there is an issue like the PM being down, would it be possible to put a temporary banner on the home page? That way we all know you're aware of the problem and you won't get inundated with additional reminders.

One of his pictures shows up on Scamsurvivors website. And OKC, and a few other websites. Yes, we have a real live scammer here. Also lists as open to meeting women, and then gay. Really? Sick that he is posting so many pictures of "his child". Disgusting vermin.

Nice birdies, hope you didn't scare mama off. 84° when I got home from work, a tad warm for this time of year. Snow forecast for later in the week. Not an atypical spring for this part of the world.

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 8, 2019:

In my last job I had a short term disability claim of a woman who had spasmodic dysphonia. Her job had been marketing/giving presentations/training of some sort. It ended her career. She saw all sorts of specialists, and we had to communicate totally by email. I spoke to her on the phone a couple of times, and email was actually faster. It took her too long to coordinate breathing and talking, and she had no volume. She ended up being rolled to long term disability, it is likely she will have to file for SSDI.

Would you relocate if you found someone on here that you have a connection with?

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 8, 2019:

Nope, not open to moving. My mom died when I was 14. My kids never got to know my mom, and we were a military family, my kids moved too often, they really didn't get to know any grandparents. I now have two grandchildren, and I want to see them grow up and be part of their lives. On Saturday two of my girls, my granddaughter, and I went for a walk, granddaughter is almost 2.5. She was so excited to see birds and butterflies. When it was time to leave and I walked to my car and her mom took her to her car, she cried because I wasn't going with them. Yeah, my heart is pretty tied up in that tiny little girl and her somewhat tinier cousin.

I want to lose a few more sizes, but gotta figure out how to fit in all I need to do now.

I'm not a doctor, but what I've read is that ejaculation is a physical reaction to stimulus. You have very limited control over it. Some female rape victims orgasm, again response to physical stimulation. It does provoke an intense shame reaction because that must mean it was enjoyed. No, it was abuse, and trauma, and totally out of your control. Your shrink sounds like a bad fit to say the least. Other responders have given you some good advice. Please feel free to reach out again, and please let us know how you're doing.

Ego vs Eco. Do both exist? Can we choose one? What do you think?

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 7, 2019:

The Ego chart puts man at the top, and women on the same level as whales. As humans we think we're the top of the pyramid, but the reality is all those below us will be just fine if we cease to exist. Some animals that humans have bred for food only may be gone with us, but the rest will manage. Some species will rebound nicely after humans stop poisoning the earth.

HippieChick58 comments on Apr 6, 2019:

I have just read the comments and I have to add one more thought. I "get along reasonably well" with my ex husband. We see each other almost once a month for something involving our kids/grandkids. We are amicable. I can get along reasonably well with almost anyone, but that doesn't mean we should have a serious relationship. Take your time, get to know him before you start thinking long term. I spent too many years in an unhappy relationship to wish that on anyone.

I got to go on a walk with two of my daughters and the granddaughter. GD is almost 2.5 now, growing and learning. We got to show her robins and butterflies. She now remembers me between visits and is excited to see me! In fact today when we left she cried because I was not going home with her. The weather was beautiful! I had some good conversations with my daughters, we made plans for several upcoming birthdays and Mother's day. I was able to open windows in my house which amused the cats which amused me, plus brought in some fresh air. I have all my breakfasts prepared for the next week, and the supplies for lunches next week are assembled.

Oh MY (substitute for god) My ex was such a critical thinker for so long, and then he started watching Fox News and he has turned into almost that same guy his dad was! Oh how horrifying! I have hated Fox News from the moment I saw it. Ex comes from a upper middle class well educated home that was only slightly religious (social xians more) but very Republican. I used to be impressed by ex's critical thinking skills until he got religion and Fox News about the same time, I think. Wow, that just blows my mind.
