OTOH... i don’t know if it would warrant the charges she’s receiving, but even if we assume they don’t like her... this situation would likely make them uncomfortable and i don’t really see an issue with them telling someone about it nor do i think that should be discouraged or frowned upon. the stepmother may have…

many, many art students scolded for drawing in this style can confirm.

nevermind, BaginaFace pretty much answered the question (about what the best/possible course of action is, when the plane’s in the air).

would be cool if it worked us out of this timeline and into a better one, or maybe just worked us out of this speedy downward spiral. 

ugh, foiled. welp, time for a new scheme y’all. 

yeah, i thought this was pretty explicitly outlined in the story and some evolutions/changes, like Corsola. 

was hoping to see mention of this in the comments :) precious. 

How does it benefit me to hear about you cutting sugar every time someone brings cookies to work?

the idol industry is terrible, and this site itself has posted some pretty alarming articles about it. it’s not something to cheer for or lament the absence of. 

i remember watching the episode of Terrace House where Riko made her debut as a teen gravure + swimsuit model, and instead of some major turn of inspiration, strength, and confidence, she broke down crying in between takes of adult male photographers telling her to bend forward more in front of the camera.

she (or even he; would not surprise me at this point) got a priest or priest(s) involved to talk her out of it.

bah, aren’t*.

no, it’s a gross demand to make, especially publicly. it would not be okay if the roles were reversed, and it’s not okay this way either. i agree that the ideal would be for him to do his part in preventing further pregnancies, but really, both of them should be and he shouldn’t be forced into surgery or contraception…

the second paragraph is the crux of what i was saying. i don’t agree that having tubes tied or removed is univerally/inherently a horrific experience, especially considering i’ve personally undergone the procedure; i used to think it was this awful thing, far beyond what it actually was (and i think there’s an issue…

yeah, boo to that response. i doubt there would be much of a barrier to get her tubes tied/removed, and if she wouldn’t do it, well... maybe she shouldn't go demanding that from other people, either.

except (for now) both aborting and not aborting are legal. killing or harming someone are. so while ideally, everyone would be careful, this attempt to equate the two is ridiculous. 

thank you! and, it's okay; i'm in a totally different time zone right now anyway so i wouldn't have expected an immediate reply.

if you’re willing to share it, i would appreciate that... i'm not close with my family or colleagues and i don't really even have any close/non-mutual friends so i'm sort of on my own in this.

thank you; hopefully i can manage to keep that balance.

thank you; i needed that.
