Not being broke in December for the first time in my life ever is amazing. I bought all the gifts, delivered them, and bills are paid. There’s money in savings. The world may be crashing, but at least I’m doing okay. Trying to hold on that it can get better.

I’m grey so someone please bring this out but is anyone else hoping Brock Turner gets his appeal and then a longer sentence?

Ooh get a cat! If you can get two that are bonded together even better!

Anyone else out there kinda love to do stuff by yourself as a default? I feel like a weirdo sometimes because although I have great friends that I hang out with, a lot of the time I just want to go out alone and enjoy myself. I really love seeing live music but most of my friends aren’t into the same music I am, or…

The kitty will make all the rest of that bearable.

I’m so sorry. I’m glad your sister was able to take your cat. I wish you all peace and strength.

Or maybe a sign glued to a sturdy popsicle stick that says: “Hi Brad, I’m not awake right now, but I greet you in a friendly way in general!”

You are not a bitch. You’ve explaned your postion. He’s not respecting your need for space and quiet. You need all your energy for whatever is going on with your life. Self-preservation, baby. I completely understand you. I need time to decompress when I come home.

I’m so sorry, sweetheart, about your terminal cancer diagnosis and the added pain of seeing your furbaby under stress like that. :( Sending good vibes and peaceful thoughts to both of you. <3

No, but it might be time to get a new roommate—someone who better matches your personality (or level of enthusiasm).

After 15 months of long distance, my bf moved here almost 6 months ago. Tonight we carved pumpkins together. It’s these little things that I really missed/wanted when we were apart. I struggle with depression and anxiety, but tonight, right now, in the crisp fall air, with baseball on and college football in full…

We successfully kept white nationalists out of Murfreesboro today and I feel really fucking awesome about that!

I am not a morning person especially, but also not a small talk/ pleasantries type. My roommate of over a year is getting increasingly angry at me for being grumbly in the morning when I come out to walk my dog at 7 am and shouts ‘Good morning!!! How did you sleep? What are your plans for the day?’, and I just sort…

Job thread:

A few weeks ago I posted about my dog, Buster, who was just diagnosed with a degenerative spine disease. After a week of trying to keep him on bed rest, it became painfully clear that there’s no way I can do it properly (I live on the second floor, and he refuses to poop anywhere on our block, let alone the apartment…

There is no way you can ask without being an asshole. Just don’t.

I’m middle aged and childfree. I find the kid talk boring AF but also get you talk about what matters to you and of course your kids really matter. You’d be a shitty parent if they didn’t.

LW1: Speaking from LOTS of experience here, anyone who treats your medical emergencies as an opportunity to go full throttle “everything must be about me!” is not your friend. Let her go.

I’ve quickly learned (from Captain Awkward: go there right now if you’ve never been, I have grown so much as a person and a “bitch) that having a “script” of responses takes a lot of the pressure off. Next time potential FIL says something racist, look him in the eye, let the silence become just a bit uncomfortable,…

I’m am very judgie about signs. They have to be legible. Good, dark ink. (No yellow ever, ugh!) Good use of spacing. Brief and to the point. Your sign is
