Same situation, plus I’m working a minimum wage job with a masters degree. I think I’d have to beg money off my parents and fly home, which is really not feasible for me right now.

I moved from MA to FL on purpose, because my allergies don’t have me bedridden for weeks at a time here. I love love love the climate, the wildlife, the beaches/inland scenery, everything about this state but the fucking people. *sigh*

I read the headline out loud to my roommate and followed it with a cheer that it wasn’t Florida.

One of my best guy friends was pretty much in love with me for two years (might still be, but he hasn’t said anything since). He expressed his feelings, I told him that I cared about him a lot but wasn’t at all interested romantically/sexually, and he has been warm, supportive, and completely respectful ever since.…

I love Garfunkel and Oates so much.

I’m a vegetarian cat lady.... I buy her the best food I can afford and just hope that the animals used for her food weren’t treated too badly. The main three are salmon, duck, and venison, though, so I don’t think those can be factory farmed in cages.

I guess we can agree to disagree on that one. It’s just genetics. I would honestly find it incredibly thoughtless and ungrateful for everything my dad did for me (he did not need to take on the child of a girl he fell for in college) to act like I was missing something by not knowing my sperm donor.

This is the most amazing stuff.... I get it every time I go there.

I had tickets to a viewing of The Princess Bride, hosted by Cary Elwes, and then they moved the date so I couldn’t go. I was PISSED.

My 36Js give me the worst tension headaches, no matter which bra I wear :( I feel your pain.

Ok, you win COTD.

Seconded. I love my Nexplanon so much.

I live in Florida and walk/bike everywhere- I’m going to look into this. That sounds amazing!

My mom told me about the type of BC that failed in the conception of each of her kids.... I’m so glad I have an implant now. It takes so much worry away about misuse, missed pills, and condom failure. I'll take 99.9% effectiveness any day.

I saw that too, and laugh/cried.

They’re trying to ensure that he only gets 3/5 of a term.

That’s exactly the rebuttal I use for anyone who wants to keep these poor people out.

I’d be lying if I said that hasn’t happened to me half a dozen times..... I know how to spell it, use it in a sentence, give you the definition and etymology, but......
