Ziplock bags are great, but if you can get a hold of emesis bags do it - they store small and then expand, and the mouth of the bag stays open so you don’t have to rely on a sick child to be able to hold a plastic bag in place. My sister swears by them for her carsick-prone kids.

I only changed one person’s password, and that was when they linked my email to an online game (I think it was WoW, but it was a long time ago) and it kept spamming me with “confirm your email” messages.

I had someone who kept using my email for things like their XBox Live or Steam accounts - I finally started going in and changing the username to “stopusingmyemail” or something like that and it stopped.

.......well that explains a whole lot.

Luckily the time I thought something similar I only got a gash across my cheekbone. It was more than enough to get me to wear eye protection every single time.

There’s so much awesome in general in that game but man the dream sequences were genius.

When I played Night in the Woods I would often just hang out during the dream sequences to hear the differences when the various instruments were there or not. I really, really loved hearing how the song changed when another instrument was added.

RahXephon. A million times, RahXephon.

I switched to (generic) Seasonique a couple years ago for exactly those reasons and it’s been magical for me, so I hope it works for you as well.

I see the “don’t take this pill because it will draaaaaaain your liiiiiiife” nonsense as being along the same lines as the people who insist that taking antidepressants will destroy all of your creative abilities so therefore you should be FREE and LIBERATED and DEPRESSED FOREVER because the world needs your gifts.

Honestly, I’m of the opinion that, if your periods are causing you trouble, you’re in good health otherwise, and your doctor doesn’t see any reason why you shouldn’t be taking it...give it a try and see if it works for you. I’ve noticed improvements that I hadn’t even considered might be possible until I finally had a

Oh, trust me, I definitely don’t feel like I’ve lost anything by being on birth control - not having my internal organs adhering to each other has made a massive difference in my life. I’m just saying, even if I did lose a little bit, it would still be worth it to me because I’d be gaining so much in return.

The thing that really annoys me is that they refer to “The Pill” as though there is only one hormonal birth control option out there and it’s this giant monolithic EVERYONE’S EXPERIENCES ARE THE SAME.

I felt like somebody had stolen my baby.

Fistbump of solidarity, here.

Waskom, Texas: where we love to waste taxpayer money on lawsuits brought because we decided to posture about issues that don’t affect us.

As an O- donor I really don’t need this service, because the Red Cross is already entirely too willing to email, call, and send postcards to me on a constant basis, even when I just donated the week before and they know I’m not currently eligible.

Once the server asked me if I wanted dessert and I said no thank you, I’m full. The server nodded and replied, “I’m not surprised, you sure ate a lot of food!”

What really gets me is their “lie like a parent” tagline. Yeah, sometimes you don’t tell your kids things. Sometimes you have to do the polite fibs. But outright lying about what they’re eating is an excellent way to 1) erode their trust in you and 2) lead them to associate moral values to certain types of food (which

High school typing class with typewriters and these flat cardboard books that would stand next to the typewriter and give us drills to follow. Two spaces after the period, how many lines to put between parts of a memo, all that good stuff. The typing class teacher also was the advisor for FBLA at my school and she
