Alcohol screws with your sleep. You feel sleepy at first, but your sleep is lighter, more easily interrupted, and lower quality.

I am so sorry about the snoring thing. If someone is snoring within like, a house of me, I can’t sleep. I need to not hear that at all. It drills into my brain and will keep me awake forever. Even my cat snoring. IDK why.

I usually play female characters because they don’t look like 500 pounds of bulky equipment on a 200 pound character. The one exception was Monster Hunter World, and I regret it so much, because I should never have expected to get lithe men wearing stuff that didn’t look like, well, 500 pounds of bulky equipment...

If you’re waking up at 2-3 AM, and in the weeks you’re waking up at 4:30, it might just be that your body is so used to getting up at the wee hours of the morning that it’s trying to wake you up then. Can you afford to go to bed earlier? If not, maybe check your environment to see what could be waking you. Do you have…

Can someone answer a thing for me? So, you know how there are horse girls, right? Everyone knew one. That girl who was obsessed with horses and owned horse everything and horses were her favorite animal and all that. It’s consistent as hell.

Depends on how much you value peanuts vs your passion. If you still adore orchestral work, and you’re fine with peanuts, keep at it. If you’re getting burned out on orchestra, and you’re fine with peanuts, see if you can talk to your group and figure out a way to accommodate you during your burnout. If you’re not fine…

Cue the people who hate breeders.

I assume you’ve tried the standard attempts at insomnia relief, but I’ll list a bunch here just in case others are digging around here and need them. Or in case you haven’t tried some! I just don’t want to assume. I live with an insomniac who has gone to doctors and interrogated them about what to do, so while I’m not…

Augh, I knew people would take me to mean the opposite of what I mean. Well, I’m not sure any more can be clarified. If I could delete my posts, I would, but I can’t.

Yeah, in the past, if people are picky, they tend to drift away from me. The last person I knew who decided I was a no-go, did it because apparently every damn tiny thing I did got on her nerves, but she never told me about any of them, but she stewed on them until she was furious. Whereas, if something she did…

IUD represent

oh my gosh I am that person too. I’m like “look, unless my friend kicks my cat or punches me/someone else in the nose, I’m pretty okay with whatever they do.” I don’t care if they’re late all the time, or if they chew with their mouth open, or if sometimes they’re kind of boorish. I will do fucking anything for my…

You’re crying over this man because you care about him. It’s very common, if not near-universal, for people to be willing to overlook a whole novel’s worth of flaws because you liked part of someone, even fell deeply in love with that part. After all, very few people marry their first loves. Sometimes always drives a…

I never knew how much I adored this column until now. This is my favorite article I think I have ever read. I can’t think of anyone else who has truly laid down the law on people’s obligation to each other until I read this.

Okay, I will own up to having used poor wording. Mea culpa.

I’d classify puberty delaying drugs as medical intervention, but if you are defining transitioning purely as taking specific hormones and possibly getting genital surgery or whatever, then...sure, kids don’t transition. Puberty blockers are not nothing.

There are kids who transition pre-puberty.

I don’t think we’re going to solve this until we have some short words for things.

I doubt anyone can detect masturbation if it’s stealthy enough. I mean what are they going to do if you’re under the covers and being extremely quiet? I’m sure heart rate monitors or whatever can be fooled by, say, doing some exercises right before going to bed or something. IDK. I could come up with a plan.

...So this is a show with the premise that people are just so uncontrollable around sex that they can’t keep it in their pants?
