One of the final straws in my last relationship was an attitude like this. I worked two jobs - a full time job and a part time job while my ex worked only two nights a week. I still did all the cleaning around the house too. One night I came home and he was like “I vaccumed, arent you happy??” I was so angry - like NO…

Yes this. I tried adding a little bit of coffee grounds to one of my plants and now I have a fungus gnat infestation that has taken months to eradicate

Im single BUT I know what my week looks like by sunday every single week. I have a calendar that has everything on it and a to do list of things I want to accomplish at work that week. I also spend a few minutes on monday morning writing out a list of non-work related items I need to accomplish that week.

Something I try to remind others is that it takes guts to be gentle and kind but it takes nothing to be cruel.

I had a boss when I was first starting my career that was like this. She would do so many things to sabotage me but when I would speak up or try to draw attention to it I just came off as “negative” and someone who was rocking the boat. Like Fisher, when I would file complaints or take it up the chain, I couldn’t…

Honestly, after the capitol attack I deleted my facebook. That was the only way most of my relatives communicated me and I couldn’t bear to watch them defend Trump after all that. I don’t allow my family to follow me on instagram so since everything has gone down Im not talking to them.

One of my closest friends loves John Maus, she has seen him live dozens of times and she talks about his music all the time.

Agreed, I feel like once you are making it more work for everyone, it becomes a deal breaker. Im actually taking vacation from Dec 9 - January 2 so I will not be participating thank god. 

In a normal year, my office does a catered lunch and gift exchange. Normally it is fine, the lunch is always really good and there are only 30 of us so its easy for the get together to run smoothly. This year, they wanted us to still do the lunch virtually and the gift exchange. I found this to be ridiculous and…

I was doing “everything right” too. I work 100% from home. I always wear my mask etc. I only ever left to go to the doctor (of which I had to regularly) and to go the grocery store because my apartment has really strict delivery rules and I couldnt get groceries delivered. But the day Biden was announced as president…

Im on Zoloft and it does the same to me. I feel like Im constantly in the need of a nap. I started taking it in March and Im so tired all the time! Otherwise it works great but I don’t know how much longer I can deal with being this tired. 

I don’t have this key ring anymore, this post is like three years old. But when I still had it and I travelled, it was on my key rings for my spare keys so I never took it with me. I just left it at home cause I would never need my spare keys when I went to the airport or whatever. *shrug*

I don’t have this key ring anymore. This post is like three years old haha and I got rid of the key ring after it I had to go to the ER and they wouldn’t admit me unless I threw it out. I just took it off my key ring and chucked it. It wasn’t a big deal at the time. 

This post is three years old and I don’t have this keychain anymore. Yes, I have self defense training though to answer your question. And punching training. So you can just fuck right off with that assumption.

I so desperately wish I could get an IUD. I had one for about 13 months before having it removed. I had my period for the entirety of the 13 months I had it in and was so fatigued I couldnt take it anymore. I had to pay to have it removed since it was before the 5 years was up and get my insurance to approve a new…

One thing I’ve noticed during all this is that while we are all struggling in different ways, it can be really hard to have someone else understand how your struggle might be different - not worse necessarily - just different than theirs.

Absolutely!!! I bought one two years ago and I would never live without it. I adore it. 

This season hit me SO SO hard. I ended up crying many times. Im currently going through a friend break up with my longest and best friend. We’ve been friends for over 10 years but its ending because of the same shit as Issa and Molly. But the final nails have gone into the coffin over the last few months. But after…

I think you completely nailed it. I think Andrew is nudging Molly gently towards making small concessions in life but Molly just isnt making any progress and he is seeing it. Especially like when she changed the food and blew off going to the game. Molly is going to end up alone and have a huge realization. 

Same. Ive been working from home since March 10, and Im showering every other day now instead of daily. I live alone too so that means Im not really seeing anyone but myself and video calls so I can get away with it. But the not showering daily has helped my skin a ton.
