Frozen raspberries work well at making the water bright pink and, therefore, “juice.” :D

It’s so weird. And like a train wreck you can’t stop watching.

Oh My God.

Oh wow. Thanks! Rabbit hole here I come!

Have you belonged to a website where someone faked their own death or serious injury/illness/medical condition? It weirdly came up on Facebook today and...wow. This is this entire dark side out there. One lady faked dying of cancer to prop up sales to her Etsy yarn store. Another? Her beading etsy store. Still…

But ~~the memoriez~~ *eye roll*

In dealing with uber passive-aggressive people in my life, I can honestly say nothing sets them off more than “I” statements.

I usually get a few things at the vendor’s room. I have kids, so I end up spending more on them than me. One of the artists for Hearthstone cards is always at local cons, so my kid sends me with a list of stuff to get :D

If there were coke and hookers, then the daily cost estimate would make sense!

My husband and I spent about $500 at a Star Trek convention once. That was for autographs, special events, t-shirts, clothes, gifts...and that was between us.

A Jenner/Kartrashian endorsement would be a negative for me. But I’m old and I’m not sure I would be able to identify Kendall Jenner in a line up.

If it makes you feel better, we’re in a high tax bracket and putting $500 on a wrist band is like something we’d talk about for a fucking week. “Should we? SHOULD WE?” Hell, I felt guilty spending $145 on comic books...at a comic book convention...where you buy...comic books.

If she spent her rent money on this, how exactly was she planning to cover her rent when she got back? Was she planning to work while she was at the festival? Was this money magically going to re-appear in her bank account?

Seriously! This is what I’m confused by the most. For this kind of money, these friends could’ve gotten a great suite just about anywhere, had lots of spending money, lots of great food, and great times together.

I have a cousin who I honestly believes needs some Ativan, therapy, a divorce (unless he’s just going along with this to support his wife, then he can stay), and to move away from her family for about a decade. Instead, she’s convinced it’s toxins and her body’s addiction to various foods, including meat, gluten,…

Honest the fucking god, if I believed for a minute that carrying around a bag of crystals made me feel better from chronic pain to a headache, I’d do it. Source: I bought a bag of crystals ones. They don’t have any healing powers, but they are super pretty and made really great props when playing D&D. Which was why I…

These people drive me nuts. Not because they are buying their $10 crystals and sniffing lavender oil (I don’t give a shit about that...you aren’t hurting anyone, and the crystals are pretty, and the oil smells nice), but because these kinds of people have convinced others of pseudo-medical conditions and treatments…

I’ve had stress incontinence since my early 20s. I was healthy, a good weight, active. I just peed when I sneezed or coughed. They sent me to this specialist and after the nurse was done explaining all of the tests they were about to do on me, I said no thanks, I’d literally rather piss myself.

The rheumatologist knew I was in the middle of being tested for all of those things. He had the list from my GP (I don’t know about other countries, but here your family doctor has to refer you to a specialist, so all of your paperwork and the GP’s list of what needs to be ruled out/addressed goes with it, plus any…

The rheumatologist was convinced I have psychosomatic pain, called it fibromyalgia, told me to learn to relax more, and to take some Vitamin D. My neck pain? Definitely just from not sleeping well.
