Yes correct. I was “prescribed” what amounts to $600/month worth of cannabis oil versus $50 in actual medications. And that was the “just to start” prescription! It wasn’t even the intended final amount. Plus it made my armpits smell like skunk and I threw up trying to take it the suggested way and had to buy capsules…

Same! Nobody believes me, but my last dose I spent 24 hours hallucinating every time my eyes closed. And still in just as much pain. My dumb boyfriend keeps telling me maybe I should try it again one day, no dummy I’d rather not be forcibly reminded of my child trauma from being high.

That’s so weird to me, every ER or walk in clinic has big signs saying they “never” prescribe narcotics. Obviously a lie because when I had a kidney stone they did, and when people come in from accidents they will. But if I just go in from pain they actually assume I’m lying for drugs and don’t even do tests even when…

No, because I don't cheer when other people's fun gets taken away.

Why would you cheer when something millions of people enjoy gets cancelled? Do you really believe that it has such an ongoing negative influence on your life that you celebrate its death? Wow. That's super bitter and unnecessary.

Maybe she tried and they declined to do anything if he’s not on her private property? But the driveway might be enough to convince them.

Three words: Chinese food buffet.

Oh hell yeah, I'd pay for an anti cavity pill even if it was like 50% a guess at it working. Better than 5k in dental bills.

The time to complain to corporate is long gone, I guess.

My Halloween costume now always includes (and in fact is almost entirely) very sick makeup. Huge red zone around my eyes, pale lips. Like I’m a dying “whatever” or usually just in my most witchy normal dress without a real theme.

Because mental health patients ARE prisoners of the health system. Without the right to leave or a lawyer.

That’s a British thing. Lots of government programs are officially called Scheme. It has different connotations there, you can google it.

Lolll all those actions are self care, as in taking care of yourself. Clean clothes! Food that isn’t crap! Whoever is saying that doesn’t get it. The idea behind self care is acknowledging that a lot of the menial tasks we do (shower, cook, whatever) are literally acts of taking care of ourselves. We need them to…

I mean, OP gave a possible solution. Making sure all residents of all areas can afford to survive regardless of job, so that when they get harassed they can quit without becoming homeless or dead.

“We have strong policies, procedures and training in place”

So can a crawling baby. None of these are really meant to replace supervision, are they?

The audience was mostly people who were kids when it happened. We understood, we just didn’t think the event that first taught us friendship doesn’t last was very funny.

I believe it. After a move where we ended up without a bathroom sink, I put my ex husband’s toothbrush and paste on the kitchen counter, because it was the location of our only functional sink. I assumed he was using it because he was a full grown man.

Hahaha I can’t imagine my childhood without remembering the spice girls, spice girls movie, spice girls books, spice girls chupa chup lollipops and stickers inside the lollipop package, etc.
