Moved into a new place and this wall is super dirty. I tried spraying diluted pinesol and rubbing it with a washcloth. Did nothing.
How do I clean this?
Update: I tried Palmolive dish soap in really hot water on a washcloth. Also did not work.

That's mold, enjoy your cancer.

i recommend getting one of those magic eraser things they sell. it works wonders. also just go to the store and look for something specific for cleaning white walls, they exist.
Don't want to go into details. I got into a physical fight with my boyfriend last night, and I was left with these two lines that only hurt when touched in certain spots. I scar very easily, even for small and fine cuts. Though there was no blood drawn nor evidence of a cut from when this occurred, I'm worried I'll have this "scar" lifelong.
Do you figure this'll be a lifelong scar and if it's merely a bruise, how long until you figure it'll heal? Thank you.
>>17360258
Kek it's a scratch, no it won't scar
Jesus Christ, I know this is an advice board and all. But this to me seems like you're more keen on having people ask about the fight, than the scar. Of course that won't turn into a scar. I don't have to be a doctor to see that. Don't even think about that baby bruise, and go on with your life. Ditch that abussive boyfriend of yours. So you don't have to ask for pointless advice here
You're way overthinking it, it's just a bruise. Apply some ointment and give it time to heal.
Several children in my neighborhood are making tumultuous amounts of noise and I can't stop them. For the past month they have been doing this nonstop.
Literally every single day, all fucking day from 8 am to 8 pm, this group of kids bike up and down the street, screeching with whistles. 12 fucking hours a day, each with a whistle in their mouth, blasting on it nonstop. SCREE SCREE SCREE SCREE SCREE SCREE SCREE
I've gone outside and asked them to stop, to talk to their parents, but they don't listen or don't understand english.
Im getting close to responding with violence. This is driving me fucking insane. I work the night shift and during my sleeping hours this gang of kids are screeching on whistles all god damn day.
What the fuck do I do? Call the cops?
>>17360256
Anon. Get used to it.
Your neighborhood has been diversified.
This is the culture their genes create. You will have to accommodate to it or move out.
Yup call the cops with a noise complaint. Or move to a different neighbourhood.
>>17360256
I'd suggest calling the cops if the kids won't stop and their parents don't understand English. Has anyone else in your neighborhood complained about the noise?
need some adv here.
a while back my girlfriend cheated on me with a dude who I know for sure fucked a hooker/probably fucked a homeless chick or got head. I found out weeks after I been putting it inside her that this even happened.
I saw the texts leading up to their meetup, my gf was pissed I did something to her like a fight and she was telling him she wanted to be on and shit. I was up in rehab so I couldn't do shit. I don't feel self worth anymore, I think as if this dude is way better then me.
Honestly, physically I'm doing alright. Mentally what happened hits me like a truck.
How do I fucking forget about it?
>>17360237
Just remember that all women are whores
>I saw the texts leading up to their meetup, my gf was pissed I did something to her like a fight and she was telling him she wanted to be on and shit. I was up in rehab so I couldn't do shit.
i don't understand this sentence.
Anyway. If you did nothing wrong, they are the human filth, not you, and people should drop filth and look for keepers among friends.
Just drop them out of your life as a toxic waste and be a person you've used to be, which is better than shitheads in any aspect. Decent people to decent people, shitheads to the shitheads, you gotta always select and eliminate.
There is this whole "nice guy" shaming all around, but if you are decent person naturally, not just a facade to get pussy, then there is no reason to feel bad about yourself or feel worse when shitheads treat you like shit, just stay true to yourself. That's the secret of self-worth for me.
>>17360237
>my girlfriend
hope she is ex girlfriend now. Just remember there isn't a man alive that hasn't had a gf or wife cheat on them and sometimes for much less than being angry. I had a married woman fuck me because her husband drove her car without telling her.
>kissed a guy or two on a night out
>a week later co-worker comes to work sick with a fever and a ton of cold sores around his lips
>we use the same glass cups at work
>i get sick that weekend with a really bad fever
>get cold sores (herpes??) on lips
>not sure if it's from kissing stranger or result of fever
>i never really get cold sores that often
>cant go to doctor bc in foreign country atm and it's hella expensive
>any input MUCH APPRECIATED
In what country are you in?
Yes, that is herpes. I have it and it looks like that. Avoid touching it, wash anything that's touched it, throw out any lipstick / lip balm that you've used in the recent past, and wash your hands before you touch your junk. The sores will rupture in a few days / a week - and they'll be filled with viral fluid, so watch out for that - and then it'll take another week or two to heal up after that.
It's obnoxious and embarrassing, but like half the population has oral herpes (cold sores) so it's not like you're a leper.
>>17360578
How often do they come back? This is the first time I have had them in 3 years. Is it just random like that? Or does it mean I have actually picked it up now?
Is it legal for me and my friend to rent a 1br apartment and put 2 beds in it?
>>17360170
yes. i mean i imagine some places might have some building codes that say no, but this is an extremely extremely common practice.
were you thinking having your own rooms with one person taking the living room or both sharing a room and having a seperate living room.
also
>not cuddling with your bro
never gonna make it famalam.
>>17360181
Probably 2 beds in the main room if it's not too small
>>17360186
there should be no problem with it. check with the landlord but he has no reason to care. generally speaking apartments DO have an occupancy limit, which is two people per room (as adults tend to share a room wtih their life partner, and kids with each other)
>tfw 140 iq
>tfw too sick/disabled to effectively navigate uni bureaucracy
>tfw can't get a fucking diagnosis so no accomodations for me
if i learn to code will someone hire me? i literally can't stand being a neet anymore. any other industries where demand for talent>desire to fuck with prospective employees.
Yeah why not do something like CS. It's better than being a neet.
>>17360158
forgot impt caveat that not getting degree
i've had to drop out for medical reasons four times already and unis are asking me to spend a small fortune to show them my entire academic history
i always thought uni was a waste of time anyway

sup /adv/, recently minted PhD in English lit here. market is shit for tenure-track work. I am seriously thinking about going back for Chemistry; I love learning and get free tuition at any public university in my home state up to 150 credit hours.
so would this really be so weird? what would your thoughts be about a 40 year old who is going back to get a second bachelor's degree in a scientific field after getting a PhD in a humanities discipline?
thanks
>>17360143
>what would your thoughts be about a 40 year old who is going back to get a second bachelor's degree in a scientific field after getting a PhD in a humanities discipline?
i'd think he finally realized that he got a mcdonalds degree and wants to get a real degree now
dude, do it! you sound motivated af.
do you. fuck haters.
Shit bro can I have free tuition too
Thoughts? Is this scummy or okay?
New to the dating game hence the question.
I'm still in pursuit of ex, if that makes a difference.
>>17360117
>is this scummy or okay?
does it matter? like really, is there some secret facebook group where girls list you on the 'scummy' list after experiencing dates with you and coming to the realization that you want casual dates?
>>17360117
>>17360207
also
>to get over ex
>im still pursuing her
stop pursuing her if you wanna get over her
>>17360211
I guess I should have rephrased to "is it okay to go out on casual dates when not emotionally invested", which seems like the answer is still "it's okay"
I ain't over shit yet, idk why I wrote that in the subject lol
Sup /adv/,
I got diagnosed with clinical depression today by my doctor. I knew it was depression as I've shown all the main symptoms for it for ages.
This all stems from getting into Commercial Pilot Training. While this should be a good thing, it's been a very long and stressful procedure just getting there (anyone in aviation will tell you that).
Anyway, I can't take antidepressants as I would be unfit to fly, so I was wondering if there's any methods of coping with stress, either other medication or something proactive.
I haven't bitched out and started crying and I intend to keep it that way, but any advice either from personal experience or any new ideas would be fantastic
TL;Dr stress coping techniques for pilots
Crying helps you know. Just fucking cry and don't be ashamed of it. I suggest finding fulfillment in what you're doing. You're doing your part to bring about one of the world's greatest forms of transportation. It's pretty god damn incredible.
Have a good day anon, I suggest crying soon.

Cheers anon, I'll give it a go
If I go somewhere with low funds is it a better idea to buy a motorcycle instead of a car assuming you live in a desert region with no rain?
You can get a small sized motorcycle under 3 grand that gets you back and forth and gets 40-60 mpg. Where a car under 3 grand will probably break down and be in the shop a lot and probably cost you you're job and will cost a ton to repair and probably only get 20-30 mpg
As a mechanic of both cars and bikes, I'd say mmotorcycles generally need more maintenance and repair per mile than a car even though there is the big saving in gas.
There is plenty of preventative maintence and simple repairs you can do to either a bike or car.(See /diy/)
There have been times I've only had a MC and there are some inconveniences but you learn to work around them.
>>17360081
Don't forget to consider that other drivers straight up don't notice motorcycles most of the time(when switching lanes and stuff like that).
Due to that there is an inherent danger that they have which cars don't.
Honda Grom gets 100mpg with a 1.45 gal tank and a 125cc engine. Perfect for efficiency.
Hello. I am terrified to try tinder but I want intimacy. I've pinpointed social isolation as the source of most of my depression. I'm also terrified of being with another man and getting taken advantage of again.
Guys of /adv/ would this work? What's your opinion? Can I say on tinder that I am looking for someone who is patient and VERY gentle, and MUST take things slow? I probably won't be interested in sex till a little bit in because I'm a very fearful and shy girl.
Also if I get hugged too hard it bruises me, I am not fucking joking. Even if you hug me gently, my hips still get bruises.
I just want to cuddle and be close... What are the chances using tinder for this will work out? I don't want to get taken advantage of
>>17360069
you gay or a girl? also tell us your state and the population of your town

> thinks tinder
Silly rabbit, tinder is for hook ups.
Someone online admitted to me that they are going to kill people. They live in Serbia I have their IP address and the logs. What is the best route I can go? They also admitted to starting creating LSA to sell and try become a drug lord.
Just to add it was children that they said they were going to.
Sounds like an edgelord that won't follow trough. Either he wants to be a terrorist or a drug lord. Wanting Both just sounds like a heap of crap.
>>17360047
I know he is bullshitting he is an edgy teenager but I will not be able to live with myself if I find out that he is hurting kids.
To those of you who spend all your day here, how do you stay sane?
At the start of each day it's pretty nice, but I'm tired of sitting here for multiple hours at a time and going to bed bored and slightly annoyed.
I check /adv/ from my phone during the day. I do that whenever i have a few mins to kill. It doesn't get boring at all. You might want to try leaving your basement...
>>17360038
I don't mean /adv/, I mean this site as a whole.
Also, do you think I was looking for someone to tell me to leave my house? I mean things I can do at home to vary up my life.
>>17360041
Meh, i browse other boards too.
K.
I would be bored out of my mind too if i would stay at home all day. I would sleep in, make pancakes, listen to some music and shitpost, play piano, make lunch, take a nap, shitpost some, draw some, watch a movie, take a bath, make dinner, shitpost some more till i'm sleepy, go to bed. Rinse and repeat till i'm too bored and actually go out or invite someone
How do I prepare for the end, end of society, mankind, whatever. Im european, and when civilisation will fall, I want to be ready, but its really hard here to get guns to protect myself, even if I get one, thats not enough, how do I survive ?
What do you mean, end of civilization?
You need to invest in secluded land and build a self-sustaining bunker
>>17360034
No government, anarchy, no services, shortages of everything, maybe a disaster that can send everything to shit
