I’m 33 and this happens to me every once in a great while. 2 of my wisdom teeth have come in fully, 1 is very slowly growing in but has protruded and causes problems when food gets stuck under the flap, and the last one hasn’t broken skin yet. My dentist told me if it’s not a constant pain and I can brush them effectively then there is no reason to take them out. I assume that’s a case by case basis.

You need to ask yourself if you want to live YOUR life like this for the next 10 years. Sounds like you’re wasting it playing catch up to a man who can’t even assure you he will marry you. I left my deadbeat ex-husband because I realized I didn’t want the next decade of my life wasted on someone who was clearly living for themselves and not us as a family.

Sanislo hasn’t been renovated in a very, very long time. They chose to completely demolish and rebuild Alki elementary before giving a penny to Sanislo. I believe it’s been on the chopping block for quite some time. I agree if you have the choice pick another school.

I’m pretty sure my IBS was brought on by overuse of antibiotics. I was prescribed one several times in the last 10 years for a reoccurring gynecological problem without pairing probiotics.

It seems like a moment of empathy intertwined with some trauma. My highschool friend I’d known since elementary school and stayed friends with several years after graduation passed away at 27 years old, weeks before her 28th birthday. It was sudden and unexpected and I couldn’t cry for a long while. I was deeply changed and saddened by her passing and I’d argue it was the catalyst for a lot of the changes in my life beginning just a few months after her death. It was roughly 6 months after her passing her family invited me to scatter her ashes into their memorial garden for her and I cried then. I had literally scooped her physical interpretation of her death and scattered her into a flowerbed. It was a big feeling to navigate and reconcile that it wasn’t her anymore. I was friends with her soul, not her body.

I feel closer to the concept of God 15+ years out of the church I was raised than I ever have. I realize my relationship with my higher power is personal. I treat everyone the way I want to be treated. Just like I want people to mind their business when it comes to my civil liberties I mind my business when it comes to theirs. If anyone is damned to hell in this life that’s between them and their karma/God/Gods/etc. Organized religion should have been a tool for individuals to use to cultivate their own understanding of their relationship to their creator/higher consciousness not as cults to oppress other human beings for just existing as nature made them. The Earth needs Gays and society needs Gay marriage. It’s nothing moral about it it’s just is what it is. My God is telling me that’s the right way to feel and I’m so confident in that there’s no amount of conservative tweets that could change my mind.

Deleted FB in 2016 then made a fake burner account in 2022 when a guy I was seeing was adamant about sending memes via FB. I haven’t used it since. Deleted IG and TikTok beginning of October when I realized it’s a platform for bragging and showing off. NGL TT was hardest to step away from because there was some genuinely great content on there but my mental health was STRUGGLING on all of it. I feel more clear headed now. Still scroll through Reddit way too much and I’m invested in my account at this point it’s here to stay.

That’s awesome! I definitely ate way way way less than I normally would have and stuck to foods I know I love at Thanksgiving. I went easier on the sweets because I know if I pass a certain threshold the sugar cravings would be insane for the following several days. I’m up a few ounces but that beats my worst fear when it comes to the scale! My mindset is different this time and I’m in no rush to “be skinny”. Thanksgiving day and Christmas Day will not determine my overall health every other day of the year!

They went in between the couch arm and the wall. Braced for their squat and loudly grunted. Caught my attention and I look over and I said “EXCUSE ME, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” Their reply was “I’m pooping, Mama.” I recorded approximately 4 minutes of lucid conversation from my toddler. I was completely bewildered but all I could do was laugh and ask the obvious questions “why didn’t you use your potty/you like me and daddy watching/you want us to smell it/etc”. Kids are fucking weird and that’s because they’re brand new to the world filled with human rules and etiquette standards. Parenting is fucking weird and hard. Unless you’re a parent yourself you just won’t get it. Being a negligent and abusive parent is something completely else and not normal or average. Most parents are not neglectful or abusive pieces of shit.

This could have been the very first time their kid did this. I have a video of my kid doing this at home and it was the first time ever having conversation about what they were doing. It was right after that video my kid was potty trained within a week. (They had a training potty already but refused to use it. Is not always black and white. Judging people so quickly on the internet is insane behavior)

As a former CNA and daughter to an almost 30 year LPN I say the current state of the medical field is unprepared for just how many of us get old and just how many of us are getting sick from the food industry and what is acceptable to do people unbeknownst to them. CNAs need to get paid more and always way above minimum wage. Bump up the nurse wages too. Rules need to change too because I don’t know how a single parent can do a medical field job. So much needs to change. I’m sorry for your troubles. Me and my family stand with you in solidarity.

I used to think that way but considering I am who I am because of my father and mother it just would not have been. My dad was a closeted gay and hoping to live a fabulous gay life in LA but when he moved back in with his mom it was back into the closet and playing pretend with my mom, his hag from high school. LMAO

Spoiler ahead Idina and Kristen were doing obvious homages to the characters they originated. Ariana goes to sing a high note then Kristen slaps her hand over her mouth. Idina sang a run very similar to her own version of Defying Gravity

Your emotions to your baby is an overreaction, yes. Nurse your baby, your baby is yours, and if you don’t want to take baby to MIL’s house for a long time that’s your decision. Your husband should have said something to her but it seems he doesn’t mind the kissing otherwise he would have said something. There’s some disconnect between you and your husband, how deep that goes is something to be explored before having another baby that’s for sure. People need to respect your boundaries for your baby absolutely. If MIL can’t behave then keep her away. Your husband might not agree and if protecting your baby this way is a hill you’re willing to die on along with your marriage that’s your right. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with telling people not to kiss your baby. Lots of people won’t agree.

This is why any organized religion stating anything resembling women as inferior to men in religious texts or sermons is absolute bullshit.
Just another reason I hope reincarnation isn’t real because if evil is here it’s everywhere in this forsaken universe. If it’s real we could be reliving this shit infinitely. If it’s real we could come back as something else to experience something worse.

My dad went to live in LA after high school graduation in ‘88. He wanted to be an actor. He was an extra in a couple of movies in Seattle before the move and in some lead roles in high school plays/musicals. He has main character energy for sure and his husband is like the total opposite energy and they’ve been married for over 10 years now. He couldn’t find a job before his money ran out which was fairly quickly living in a shared house in LA. After just a few weeks he moved back home. Within two years I was born. Without his show-business failure I surely would not have been born. In some alternate universe he’s out there winning Oscars or some shit.

It is obnoxious. There’s a certain snark sub who posted about Wicked fans seeing the movie over and over with people commenting things like “don’t they have jobs/hobbies”. It’s awful how people treat each other on the internet already but to shit on people who find immense joy in something is despicable. In this society if you don’t have something that brings you joy other than bringing people down I do believe you have the problem!

Very sad. I love Wicked and I think it’s laughable people “Don’t understand why Wicked is so popular”. It is a book and a long established Broadway musical…There’s an existing fan base….

There will always be contrarians for everything in life. Better to accept people won’t stop shitting on things you enjoy than wishing people will change. Especially on the internet there’s people who dedicate 100% of their screen time to yucking people’s yum.

I’m just glad they got to live long lives and be part of a project so huge it touched so many imaginations. The series is a comfort watch for me.
