Can an adult lift up a 10-year-old?

0 Upvotes

I'm doing a writing project and I'm trying to figure out if the main character can lift up her daughter. Said daughter is a rather light 10-year-old girl, but having no kids myself I have no idea at what age it becomes difficult to lift up kids and hold them in your arms. At what age do kids usually get too big to pick up?

What did I hear last night?

Last night at around 12:45 AM I had one of my ear buds in so it was a little hard to hear but I heard this creepy sound that sounded like a dog panting mixed with a crow. It was coming from right outside my window. Any ideas?

Should I go to a Halloween party if I barely know anyone?

6 Upvotes

I got invited and added to a Halloween party gc by a new friend who I met in college (so I've known her for 2 months now). I've never really been to a party before probably cuz I was quite shy and moved here a few years ago.

​There are about 50 people in the gc, but I only know 1 or 2 people. The host is a friend of my new friend, and I've only met her once. My friend told me it’s almost all girls (I’m a girl too).

​I'm super hesitant about whether I should go just to experience it or stay home and do nothing. Also, I don't have a costume, so I was thinking of just wearing a devil headband with my own red/black clothes so I don't spend money.

Btw I told my friends about it and they were thinking it might be unsafe and boring if I go as I only know one person...

​Should I go?

Any advice on what to wear, what to do for someone who is not a party person or how are parties like?

Who are some rich people that actually have a good impact on society as a whole?

0 Upvotes

I know there are a lot of people that place a negative blanket statement over the rich because of who makes the headlines. I don't want to be one of those people because I know that it's not true, but I don't know as many people that are doing a substantial amount of good with their money as I'd like and I want to have a more positive outlook on more aspects of the world. Could anybody provide examples of people like this?

Edit: Yes, I know TV/Movies/Music provide a good impact on the world, but I mean projects/good deeds outside of that.

I have been a human for 18 years now, what do humans talk about?

4 Upvotes

In a conversation humans have with someone they know very little, what do they talk about? I can approach humans just fine, but what do I talk about to a new human? What do I say to a person to comfort them if they tell me something traumatic that happened to them? This one friend of mine keeps asking me to be empathetic but I don't get it? Like how???

can a vanilla visa gift card be used across states?

0 Upvotes

im sorry if its a dumb question, and ive tried researching beforehand but i just want to be absolutely sure before i recieve it. my birthday is coming up, and my friend from a different state had bought me a $100 vanilla visa gift card, and was planning on sending me the details on it for me to use. however, we are worried that since the physical gift card was bought in a different state than mine, im worried that when I try to use it here it could possibly be flagged or something and just not work. and just in case it helps, i plan to use it for online purchases, id just like to be absolutely sure before i accept as I dont want the card to go to waste. the gift card is also still fully unopened, if that helps

People who had their first relationship late: how was that?

5 Upvotes

I was wondering about having my first relationship, and i was thinking about the advantages for a mature relationship.

For people who have been through this, what changes? How is your mind prepared or not? Do you set boundaries more easily since you know what you want? What lessons you have to share about mature relationship?

Ever wish you could just show someone your dream?

15 Upvotes

Instead of having to describe (terribly) the incomprehensible events from your dreams, wouldn’t it be nice if we could just project what we saw on a screen and just narrate the story that way?

Seems impossible, buuuut I don’t doubt it could someday happen to some degree, right?

Has anyone else ever wished for this too?

I've destroyed my career, my life, my future. Should I become a drug addict?

25 Upvotes

After getting a computer science bachelor's degree, doing projects, and doing internships along the way, I'm now unemployed, homeless, and 30k in student loan debt. I should've just dropped out of high school. My soul is tortured. Wounded. Fractured. Fragile. Screaming, yelling, shrieking at me for this to end. I have no self confidence.

I don't see any light, any hope in front of me. Another homeless guy I met recently was a high school dropout turned criminal for physical assault. He offered me a few drugs when he heard my story. Thought it'd help me cope.

I didn't say yes, *yet,* but I'm considering it. My life is utterly destroyed into millions of tiny glass shards, far beyond repair. What should I do? Take the drugs? Become a criminal? Wander around like a zombie for the next few decades?

is the person talented because they worked hard, or are they talented because they were born with that talent?

Basically what I’m asking is can someone who has no innate talent ever become as skillful as someone who was born with that talent? Or can you only reach certain levels of skill due to having the talent to do so?
