My job is sending me to London for a three-day training course next month, and I am PUMPED. I honestly hate my place of work, and this course is the only thing I’ve had to look forward to here since they mentioned it last summer. The course itself sounds super intensive and hopefully beneficial, but what I am really…

Meds are the freaking best (caveat:  it can be a downer finding the right one for you). Plus, meds + therapy is supposed to be more effective than either alone.

My two cents... Something that might help you at your current job, is to “Quit in your mind.” Instead of actually quitting and losing that paycheck, just show up to work each day without caring if you get fired (especially since you’ve been there around six months, you’ll qualify to receive unemployment benefits if…

He looks like a Doc.

It’s your Weekly Achievement Thread! What have you done this week that you’re proud of? Let us know so we can crow along with you!

Wanted to drop in and tell everyone thank you. I’ve had a tough year-ish, and took a break from Jez while I floundered, but when I came back it was like walking into a hug. All of you are amazing. All of you deserve amazing things.

I posted here a few weeks ago about how I had interviews coming up and I GOT MY DREAM JOB AHHHHHH!! I did not think the interview went well. But I am STOKED! I can’t really wrap my head around it all. On top of that, they are giving me more seniority that I expected and a nice bonus. I just. . . gah! This employer is…

Undeniably the same shape/same amount of stones but somehow Kerr’s ring was 10000000000x better. I must, against my will, admit that I find it weird.

I almost never say this, but I think you may be overanalyzing here. 

Oh, he wasn’t trying to get out of wearing a condom. The vibe I got was more that he was being cautious. Being on the pill is pretty common; I think he’d have been fine if I’d said I wasn’t on the pill due to an allergy etc. And prior to starting to make out we had briefly discussed sexual history/STD testing, so…

I know some people who take the recommendation of using two methods of contraception very, very seriously.

It was my first Tinder date, and in Europe. I was 29, he was 39. After a long, long night of drinking, weed, cocaine, we finally go to my Airbnb—an extremely tiny studio. The guy passes out immediately. Meanwhile, I can’t sleep because I need to poop. Badly. I knew this would be a very explosive and smelly one. I had…

So, this was actually a good experience overall, but it had a VERY weird moment.

I had a guy piss the bed too!! He woke me up, “Hey, I wet the bed.” He tried to blame me saying my bed was too warm (???) and refused to help me strip the bed or clean the mattress topper!!

12 years ago I was 1 year out of college and going to a friend from college’s wedding. We were in a sorority together and she was marrying a guy from a fraternity. The reception was full of 21-27 year old current and former sorority and fraternity gals and guys, a Franzia fountain, and several kegs. Decor was folding…

In my youth, outside of the bar at closing time was called “the sidewalk sale” because men would literally just pick twinks off and bring them home.

There should totally be a Nonconsensual Golden Showers literal Pissing Contest (and no, I am not a Moscow sex worker.)

I'm not so sure I would call myself a WINNER after this encounter, but thanks :-D

This going to get a bit graphic, you’ve been warned!

The one that gets the most giggles when I tell it is when he finished, started crying, rolled off of me and whispered namaste. Then asked me to cuddle him, then asked what he could make me for breakfast. I pushed him out the door and starfished that bed all night long.
