Forget the ring: I’d just be happy to find a partner who’s worked through their emotional traumas and not gone into 6-figure amounts of school debt.

Slightly OT but since we have your BDSM attention, if anyone is looking for something that isn’t vanilla as sh*t and absolutely more size inclusive, check out Rich Love. Oakland-based trans designer who, unlike Paltrow, actually knows what they’re talking about when it comes to fetish-wear:

Fairly NSFW, as if that…

Can we have a plant-brag thread? Because despite the fact I’ll kill any succulent instantly, I’ve had a beautiful, lush pothos for over 18 years now. EIGHTEEN YEARS. I’m so proud of that damn thing....

I legit passed on the most perfect house because the neighbor across the street had a bored + barking german shepherd pacing their fence the entire time I was viewing the home.

I drove by the home recently (5 years later) and there was the same pup, still bored and still barking.

German Shepherds are crazy protective barkers and Belgian Malinois are like German Shepherds dialed up to 11.

These dog owners are assholes who aren’t training their highly-trainable-but-require-a-firm-hand dogs and it sucks that they’re ruining it for every other responsible dog owner.

THIS. My neighbor is a good dog owner who has a lovely and sweet doberman that started experiencing crazy anxiety when his schedule changed. We’re talking howling and howling and howling and howling and howling for 8-10 hours straight. I work from home and I couldn’t get a damn thing done. I started to feel very real…

Hey, I went to ASU and while I certainly don’t have school pride, you know what the best part of it was?

Graduating with about 1/20 the school debt as someone who graduated from a ~prestigious~ school and still landing the same caliber jobs as them thanks to the ‘08 recession.

*shotguns a beer and smashes it on forehead…

“I thought this was some sort of roundabout Full House reference.”

Same.

I fell in love with someone in recovery and learned the hard way that no one can keep an addict sober except themselves.

Save your energy, Lindsay; you can both love and support him while still giving him the space to figure out his sobriety on his own...

I know exactly how Cassie feels because I too have dated “the perfect man” but you know what? “The perfect man” is boring as shit and I’m really proud of her for not* succumbing to the pressure to stick it out with him “because he’s perfect!!”

*at least for now

Meanwhile, here’s William H Macy...

I’ve had so many discussions about malls recently and the dream is to either:
1. Take those empty stores and turn them into studio spaces for makers who want both a studio space AND a retail presence.
2. Take dead malls and repurpose them into dorm-like shared living spaces for the HUGE aging Boomer population. They’re…

You triumphed!

Road rage is the stupidest thing. I really don’t understand how some people get so worked up and make it sooooo personal. 

This morning I made the jack-off motion and laughed at a man road-raging against me and got him so upset that he threw his water bottle at my car before zooming off.

I consider that a triumph.

My main takeaway from this show is that Nicole Scherzinger is a closet furry.

That’s my threshold too. My overall body type hasn’t really changed much over the past 20 years and over those 20 years, I’ve figured out that I’d have my “bikini body” if I lost 10 pounds but in holding those 10 pounds, I hold the ability to eat/drink whatever I want in moderation and not feel denied.

So yea, I’ll…

I’m the most chill flier but during total-shit flights, I’ve found it helps to just close my eyes and pretend that I’m either driving on a shitty freeway (turbulence) or riding a roller coaster (wind) and remember that this is just a normal irritating day for the pilots and crew....

Too. Much. Eye Contact. >.<

I had a temporary disabled parking permit while going through chemo because, even through I appeared healthy to the uninformed (I was 25), I was full of poison and could manage about 200 ft of walking before I very quickly turned back into a pile of grey mush. Pre-cancer, I kind of knew people were terrible but the…
