I just looked up a bunch of isometric exercises cause I'd never heard of them, thanks so much, I'm going to start doing them this week :)

I thought she meant "cause we're smart like that" sarcastically......

Please don't hurt yourself :( Growing up is a really difficult process, and it takes time to figure things out, but the world is a really cool place. There is so much to experience and see. You have so much time to heal and live a happy life, it is okay that right now you are not happy. Please don't be angry at…

I also just graduated and moved 6 hrs away. It's month 4 now. I have some cool coworkers but they all have their own lives, and I joined a soccer team but most of the members are a decade or two older than me. I mainly talk to old friends online or on the phone. I'm pretty depressed too, especially today since I was…

I was running a couple miles several times a week, but I get really bad knee pain. I've been trying to increase my hip strength since I read that has a lot to do with knee pain - does anyone have any advice for increasing hip and knee stability/strength? I mostly do side leg raises, squats, and inner/outer thigh…

can I just say that it is the senators/representatives that support abortion in the case of rape or incest but not in other situations that disgust me the most? It is such a giveaway that the only thing they hate is when women enjoy sex without consequence.

I think your definition of masculinity is flawed here. Trying to diffuse the situation and work through conflict is not feminine. I had a boyfriend who was very very feminist, but he was not masculine to me. I had no desire for him to punch a wall randomly or to be angry or violent, etc (society's go-to definition of…

i figured they wouldn't do the same presentation the the writer did (leaving out certain characters and switching back to them in the next novel), but go chronologically instead

Not getting pregnant is a pretty huge medical concern. Pregnancy requires tons of doctors visits, monitoring how the body is changing and how a fetus is developing, etc. Pregnancy is a "medical condition" and can be dangerous, that's why you have to see a doctor throughout the entire process and (generally) give birth…

AGREED!

I have drifted away from a lot of people pain-free, but I was usually never close to them or there were things about them I really didn't like. Other than that, it isn't pain-free for me but happens all the time :( I have three good friends who just never have time for me, and only one of those three has kids. I try…

Exactly! If they outlaw abortion I'm going to send my bloodiest tampons to my representatives so they can mourn the loss of a human life.

It only happened to me once, and i just pretended not to hear, but I really wish I had made a horrible smile face - maybe like this:

I didn't get a notification for your message, so I'm sorry for the late reply.

I've also thought of doing a counter-protest, but I just don't think I can stomach it. Solidarity though! I hope you find a better place to live - I got out and I ain't going back!

I can't find the original comment for this, the link isn't working - but first of all, I only feel that when men are disrespectful (leering, staring, smacking their lips when they walk by, grabbing, etc ) is not okay. I don't care if men look, I look at hot men too, but I don't stare because its rude to stare, just…

Omg! I'm so sorry that happened to you!

Hmm, I guess I did assume gay women would be more respectful of other women than straight men tend to be. Like I said tho, I've never been to a gay bar, so it was kinda just a stab in the dark at why straight women might like gay bars.

So I didn't even realize I had messages in my inbox! Sorry about the late reply!

I started tax in late October 2012, so its just been a few months. I spend most of my time on workpapers, which are basically excel spreadsheets, making journal entries to get from GAAP to Tax basis income. I use the financial statements sent to us by the client to try and figure out some of the wacky things they've…
