She’s an adult and I assume she’s mentally capable. Just support her and when/if she ever regrets her decision, she’ll have you around to lean on.

If you openly hate on her decision or shame her for it, you’re only going to drive her away or make her even more firm in her choice.

I hate how far away the cat is and how alone it seems that far down :(

I know dead beings can’t feel emotions but I can’t help it.

I’m from “you guys” but I’ve lived in “y’all” and now I’m forever team “y’all,” regardless of where I’m living.

It’s the best export from the south, except maybe Texas brisket and pecan pie.

Yes, this is exactly how I would define it.

I also don’t think it imparts a general pro/anti integration with locals (not to say some assholes aren’t out there).

If I was thinking of immigrating elsewhere, I’d want to be near a few other people from my country who’ve been there longer than me, if only to make the transition easier and to get help with any issues specific to people from the same place.

Damn intersex people, doing crimes by being born. Let’s arrest them immediately out of the womb. /s

Sucks that breast augmentation will be banned for girls under 18. And I assume likewise for guys regarding treatment for gynecomastia.

The party of rAtIOnAliTY aNd lOgiC would know that those are also gender affirming, right?

Don’t forget that if we pull funding from Ukraine, the proxy war with Russia will potentially morph into the most peaceful war between Russia and our allies.

The fact that the person representing the choice to act is also giving a WTF, dude face is hilarious.

You’ll let us know if they’re hiring, right? Right!?

I feel like I’ve just started listening after zoning out while someone is trying to explain a new TTRPG.

“Hi honey, how was your day?”

“Terrible. I accidentally became a falconer and you know how hard I’ve been trying to avoid falconry recently. I thought I was safe.”

I take it they’re TERFs?

“I’m one of the good ones!”

If you white knuckle past the point of burnout, you eventually start getting out of bed again to do hobbies. But only hobbies that feel useful and needed, and only if done feverishly so your brain can’t dwell on feeling burnt out and all the fun is gone. Dunno, maybe it’s just me ¯\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Disclaimer: It doesn’t go so well for people who wish to remain employed :/

Yeah, it’s the pressure of needing tasks completed immediately and the obvious importance/need to remove the stress-causing thing.

It’s a perfect recipe for hyperfocus and also why I can’t set my own deadlines–because I know it’s all wibbly wobbly when there isn’t a hard deadline from an external source. I’d be rich if I had a dollar for every time I wished someone would just tell me when something is needed instead of asking me to give an estimate.

If the task feels like boring busy work or bullshit and no one told me otherwise, you’ve got fuckall chance it’s getting done.

Oh, it is already that time of the week where the media pushes this as new information?

Wake me up when his drafty attic actually results in removal from the Republican ticket or breaks through the Republican voter information blockade.

I know that sleeping on your left side is best for heartburn due to the way our stomachs are oriented.

Not sure about other reasons. I like side sleeping with a pillow between my legs for my shitty back pain, but maybe that’s just me.

And I’m going to add something that helps me talk to my therapist: “If it’s mentionable, it’s manageable.”

After you’ve tried to deal with something yourself and haven’t succeeded, telling someone about what’s going on, no matter how unimportant or embarrassing or burdensome or shameful it feels, is the first step to living a life of contentment.

The most righteous tithing.

He looks like a slimy televangelist.
