Where do you work?! I made less than that working at a nonprofit as a coordinator, and when I was job hunting (in a major city), they all acted like my last salary was too much for similar jobs. Seriously, if you have any job leads or know of similar nonprofits, that would be really helpful to me. Looking for a…

I thought it was “Ensure the client is fed his coffee throughout the day.” I imagined the assistant having to be by his side all day, travel mug at the ready.

Justin Timberlake. That’s who. He said it a million times during his concert here 2 years ago, and people cheered every time.

Parts of Dorchester and Roxbury? I haven’t been to Dudley Square in about a year/year and a half. It wasn’t as bad as I heard it used to be, but it didn’t seem gentrified.

A coworker (Dem.) said Baker is probably safe since he was vocally anti-trump. I don’t keep up with the state politics much, so I took her word for it. Something for me to research, I guess!

But I thought it was turtles all the way down?

Agreed, especially about Chidi. Because he was teaching Eleanor how to be good, tried so hard to not offend the professor with the boots and was a sweetheart in general, he seemed like a good person.

The show got me good. I assumed Tahani’s character was kexplained by the adage “the road to hell is paved with good intentions.” Until the episode about motivations, I thought what mattered more were the consequences of your actions, not your intentions behind them. Yeah, she’s condescending sometimes and a braggart.…

Oh god, the flashbacks your comment just brought on. I can still feel the burned tips of my ears from the press the night before school picture day and the flinching when the comb accidentally hit the scalp.

Hey, fellow trichster and wig wearer. It’s really cool and brave of you to tell people in your life it’s a wig. I’m not there yet because of the stigma, but I do try to be more open about it with close friends. Just wanted to say hey and you’re not alone!

Good point. Reddit’s a good one if you have your subs set up already. (A newcomer would still some political/news posts on the front page.) Maybe tumblr or stumbleupon, too.

I completely forgot about Sporcle! I did the capital/country ones, too. I’m terrible at geography, and it was a fun way to practice. Matching logos to brands was another fun one. Thanks for the reminder :)

Oh wow. That’s some heavy work. If you want a mindless diversion but can’t watch TV or listen to music at work, Buzzfeed quizzes and listicles are good for that with the added bonus of being able to go “that’s what the kids are into??”

It was the insert in the cookbook we’re given at birth. /s

Do you need to read the news for work? If not, a break is definitely recommended. Yes, it’s important to stay informed, but your mental health is more so.

Thank you. People want her to be a victim of abuse so badly. As someone who grew up with an abusive father, you’d better put on a (convincing) happy face when you’re out in public together or you pay for it later. And the shame keeps you from making it obvious what’s going on. One of the problems with abuse is it’s…

Was this the ad on the page for you, too? It was throughout the article for me, but I’m reading this on my phone so no ad blocker :p

I love how he said Kardazzians.

Did your doctor warn you that would happen? That sounds awful and terrifying by week 2. I can’t even imagine dealing with that.
