Last time I was checked out things were normal but I’ll make note. Usually though I just have two days of garbage guts and today is just day one. I'm glad they caught it and you're ok!

That one got me right in the feels. I still have days where I forget he’s gone :(

After grad school I felt like I couldn’t read. Or, I had a started reading in a way that is not conducive to reading for pleasure. My eyes would automatically skim, jump to breaks, I couldn’t take in thorough details. It was genuinely awful, I loved to read before those 2 years when I had no time to.

I do that allll the time. When I was a kid I would spend all my money on books and my parents would ask me why I didn’t just go to the library and take them out there. But I wanted to keep reading them if I loved them.

YES

I think the elephant in the room is the fact that people are not equally gifted in all areas. Some people can read faster than others AND retain what they read. Others need more time to process. Not everyone can or should be a speed reader.

This is a nice article about rabbits.

Good question. I hate reading with somebody else. They finally get the bottom and just sit there for a second and then they turn to you “Are you done yet?” Fucking yes, I’ve been done forever and was waiting for you! Go to the next page, go.

I just quickly read over it, so speed reading cures cancer, huh? Sweet.

If you want to read faster, read MORE its not going to make you read at 750 wpm but it will increase your speed for sure.

I am Australian and I for one have only heard it used as an insult used in hate. Usually while being followed to the train station/on the train/going out to lunch/just going about my business by some creep, who is usually also barking at me, calling me a bitch, dog, slut and other misgonsitic slurs and threats of

So, I clicked the link and looked at the photos (idk why I did this, I immediately regretted it), and there is a picture of a vagina, hovering over the toilet, with discharge coming out of it. (!!!) I’m warning you, do not click unless you have a strong stomach and brain-bleach on hand.

Eating yogurt when you have a yeast infection = Good

Uhhh, hello. They're scratching you because they want you to do a cat eye with black eyeliner.

This is what happens every time I do fantasy house shopping in London online.

I'm a big fan of day drinking, so maybe that's why I like this kind of beautiful kitsch so damn much.

Because some of us are old enough to remember removing 70s wallpaper. It was a nightmare. Fortunately, advances in adhesives make the job easier these days.

I so agree with this. It can actually be a really hard decision to start taking medication and it’s unfortunate that so many people explicitly see it as a sign of weakness. I also find it really interesting that people talk about it as a “crutch” or a “bandaid”—there’s a reason that people use crutches and bandaids,

For some reason*, when I read the headline I was thinking some British teens made instagram accounts for the characters and I was like “omg I want to follow Blair on IG!” Really disappointed to find out this is not the case.

I find it hilarious that in this “OMG THEY ARE SO OLD WHY ARE THEY STILL ALIVE AND LOOK AT HOW OLD THEY ARE LOOK AT THEIR OLD FACES!” article they go for a quote from Dick van Dyke, who is every bit as old, and say nothing about his age or looks.
