Star Trek is much better suited to drinking games, a staple activity in my house.

Hubs and I are both retail management and have been for the better part of 15 years. Shitty retailers are going under, but the ones who recommit to customer service and value are still seeing robust sales. All of the companies I’ve worked for (including Gap, Inc, which is always held up as being in crisis) are seeing

I am 100% obsessed with ANW, and had the opportunity to see Jessie compete on Sunday with the Wolfpack Ninja Tour. Although the show itself left a LOT to be desired, watching her shoot up that Warped Wall was special and amazing.

I know my mom would have aborted me, and likely would not have chosen to have childrem, if she’d had more options. She loves all of us greatly, but we have each felt at different times that we were unwanted children. That’s a hard thing to deal with, and I struggle with it a lot.

Yes, you’re so right about that. My hometown was one of the more violent cities in the States - upon moving to a bigger city, I had to get used to the lack of gunshots and general mayhem at night.

Lots of love to you, honey. <3

We lived in a fairly conservative town that happened to have a large and vibrant gay community. Still, some people were so belligerent - it’s shocking now to think back at that.

I have seen that stand-up probably more than any other, and it is absolute, heartbreaking brilliance.

My mom came out in 1997. This episode is immortal in our home, and a very worn VHS of the original airing is the only reason she has kept a VCR.

This is one of those things I get a little heated over. New Mexico has so little - the economy is already devastated, and the agricultural community is so vibrant there. It means a lot to the culture of lifelong growers to have the pride of knowing they produce something unique.

Yeah, I’ve been in Denver for about 9 months now after growing up in NM. Colorado chile is much milder, tends to always be suspended in pork based sauce, and has little to no smoke.

That sounds wonderful, but not an option for us. We live far from there and need both of our incomes to survive without massive hardship.

Fuck, I’m sorry. You are one of too many stories like this, and its one of the most shameful things this country has ever done.

This is why my husband is so reticent to get the benefits that rightly belong to him. He is a combat veteran with depression, PTSD, and chronic injuries sustained while deployed. He has bouts of suicidal thoughts and issues with alcohol dependency because of his untreated PTSD, which we’ve been able to mitigate

I’ve been there, and it’s quite the weight to carry. I hope things get better for you soon.

Thank you. You have no idea what weight your words carried for me. I don’t have a path towards better yet, but I’ll be okay until I do.

Holy shit, you guys. Normally, I’m a lurker, but I need to vent a bit...

Holy shit, this! The last two weeks have been like Vesuvius on my face. Just wanted to commiserate, pizza face to pizza face. Good luck!

I quit my soul sucking job last year after my hair started falling out from the stress. It is unbelievably freeing to be away from that, and I’m so excited for you to escape!

Weirdly, I am not a natural introvert. I love people and conversation, and hate spending lots of time alone. I generally expend a lot of that energy at work (retail), so it doesn’t come out in my off time, but I’m not currently working in that capacity. I have all of this social energy and no idea how to meet new
