Still realistic. 10/10 would watch.

Yup. Those English-only salons are expensive by her standards.

Plus I’d read elsewhere that it would explain why tracking with dogs didn’t work. Spray some of that down to confuse his trail.

Expensive AF but will last forever, especially applied with a tiny brush.

Yup. Urvashi Pitre, known in various articles as “the butter chicken lady” for her Instant Pot butter chicken recipe, promotes on her website various kitchen gadgets that she uses when she’s having a rheumatoid arthritis flareup, affecting her hand strength and dexterity. Some include “weird” things like a…

Not to mention cleaning up during menstruation takes a lot more wiping, and to avoid grossing people out you might nearly mummify a disposed-of tampon/pad before throwing it in the bathroom garbage.

(Tampons should not be flushed. No, really. Only flush your bodily waste and toilet paper.)

We order cakes for birthdays and other events, but hell if I know why. There’s always at least 2/3-3/4 of a big cake left over, our fridge is small, and everyone spends half the party handing cake slices down until they pile up because no one wants cake. Just like last time.

Key & Peele’s “TeachingCenter” - on point as always.

Cheaper than adoption.

And sometimes parents just didn’t believe that the nice doctor would do something bad. This friend of Nassar ended up killing himself after he realized his daughter had been telling the truth about the abuse that happened when she was little (started at age 6, she first told her parents when she was 12). Her parents…

“BARR: Yeah, and it’s pretty chilling to hear young women and their parents describe that. He was very adept at grooming not only the young women but their parents. And he would position his body in such a way and drape a - oftentimes, a sheet or a towel over the gymnast or other young women that he was treating in…

He often did it to the girls while a parent was in the exam room with them (his body positioned to block the parent’s view), so the girls thought it must be a normal part of the exam. When girls complained, they were told they were imagining it/they were mistaken/this is part of a physical exam.

Very true. With her paranoia disorder, it’s possible she may someday have an issue during travel and present a danger to herself or others.

At minimum, she’s a blatant demonstration how looking ‘harmless’ will get you treated differently.

How are you going to make her stay in a facility? She has paranoia about being followed, she hates the homes that she has been put in, and she’s not of any apparent danger to anyone.

I’ve read that she tags along right behind (white, I assume) larger family groups to look like Grandma’s traveling with the family. How she gets away with the boarding pass issue, I have no idea. Maybe she finds discarded ones? I’m assuming TSA doesn’t check the date all that closely.

If you have issues where you may drive through police barriers into approved march routes, you may need to be the one to stay out of the road.

I’ve seen 140 mentioned. Those are the ones who came forward.

When I was a teenager and trying to express that I had depression, my mom told me that I had no reason to be depressed. I think she at least mostly honestly meant it (might have suspected me of some teenage drama), but that’s the problem. There isn’t always a reason.

I love banchan; it’s fabulous. Most of the time you get so many types that even if you don’t like one, you’ll probably like most of the rest. The first time I had Korean food it was carryout, so I basically sniffed and poked at each of the little banchan containers and did a lot of Googling. Here’s a few good starting…
