Is this from Peep Show? Bc I read that in David Mitchell’s voice

eh, after a while it becomes second nature :)

Yes it is a thing and it’s actually important. Think of people with peanut allergies...some people can’t eat peanuts, but some people can’t even be near peanuts without a reaction...just like that celiacs exist on a spectrum, and for some people the amount that could be absorbed through your skin is enough for a…

yessss! I have mixed feelings about fad GF diets. On the one hand, I used to literally have to make everything myself or eat bread that had the texture of cardboard (literally). On the other hand, people take my restrictions less seriously because they assume I’m just fad dieting (because I would chose not to eat…

i laughed out loud. a+

ps I love your username

ahh! I still feel like I don’t really understand it how grey/nongrey works, so I mostly comment infrequently anyway :)

yes, I made this point as well, but i am in the greys :(

you should also note that this is coded language! I”m pretty positive that “village” here = native AK women specifically, not just all women

seconding all of this! I find that the expensive jeans really do fit better and last longer (it’s hard to find cheap jeans that both fit over my butt and don’t wear out after 6 months bc my thighs rub), so I go try on all the expensive jeans, make a note of the size and style and then find them on sale or at discount…

aww! what an awesome name

This is really lovely, thank you for sharing :)

...and I have to ask: is your name a reference to Playing House??

This! I’ve been doing it for less than a year, but I am in love now and most of that is because I started with no strength (literally I could not even lift the empty bar...) and now I can lift more than I thought possible.

I’m doing starting strength too! weightlifting is the first exercise I’ve stuck with that gets me really excited and I think it’s because I can see the gains so much more easily (adding 10lbs to a lift feels like more progress than cutting my running time down by 10 seconds, etc) and it makes me feel STRONG while also…

ooh, I have to check that out! thank you :)

Needing a dark brown mascara is 90% of the reason I buy Diorshow, even though it’s pricey. I used to have a MAC one that was perfection, but they stopped making it :( I just want big full lashes and not to look like I have dark black circles around my eyes...is that too much to ask?

hello! I am actually looking at something similar because of my subject matter (and price... and time it takes to get the degree), and am also concerned about finding something after. What I keep telling myself is that I still have some competitive advantages in my current field if I go abroad because the program…

open question here for anyone who has ever gone to post-graduate studies at a non-US school...what was it like? I’m considering it because of the cost/opportunities, but I’d love to know other people’s experiences!

omg the uber thing and the locking the doors! it has to be the last thing I do before bed, no matter what. I will be on the verge of sleep, and then jolt awake to triple check that my doors are locked and all the shades are down.

My mantra with all men who don’t understand boundaries is: “Your dick is not my problem”
