Agreed, it’s so sad. I’ve gotten sexual and romantic attention whatever weight I’ve been, but, yeah, I’d say that there’s more of it now and it’s sometimes different in attitude.

I am 5'9" and in my twenties I was between 115 and 125. Some of us are just built like that. Now I am a solid 150. Ha!

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD

Someone wanted a mid-life crisis but his bank account said “Fuck you!”

You are super skinny and if you are dieting to stay that way it is verging on disordered eating or dysmorphia. I am 5'7". And everyone carries weight differently but when I was 120, I was too too skinny. At the time I thought I was fine, and it was all metabolism, but looking back, it was makes sense that people…

That’s interesting. I weigh 125 and I’m an inch shorter than you and I constantly have people telling me I’m too skinny, or I’m the smallest person they’ve ever met. When I was down to 120 due to health issues, I thought I looked unattractively skinny.

The phrase “catastrophic attempt at a colonoscopy” kinda makes me cringe.

AWWWWW! I want to snuggle him!

There is one thing and one thing only to do: You accept that you can’t control his behavior, and stop arguing with him about it. This is like trying to teach a pig to sing.

So I got a text from an unknown (to me) 917-area code number at 5.40AM today. “Catastrophic attempt at a colonoscopy yesterday. Will email details.”

It’s a big deal when they eventually die. But the in-between time is AWESOME!

I think that it important that you shouldn’t judge yourself for not having a current romantic partner. You are doing well by many measures, and maybe currently being single had a big part in that? Many coupled people I know who compromised and settled, wouldn’t/shouldn’t be considered more successful than a single…

My ten year reunion was back in 2011 and I skipped it. Most everybody I want to talk to from back then I’m friends with on FB and we all talk pretty regularly. Same with my wife as we met in high school and had more or less the same circle of friends. We just didn’t see any point in going. Well, that and my wife was…

Not a damn thing. Prescribed opiates and alcohol are a no-no, so I will be frighteningly sober as I go out to pick up shame pizza and meringue supplies. World, fear me—i’m baking on painkillers!

Never went to mine. They didn’t really put together a proper event. Just some people met up at the beach. Which sounds okay except there was nothing to eat or anything so they just talked and took pictures and left.

Look at the cute babies!!!

Ahmahgahd, I just made a whole series of guttural choking sounds. KITTENS SO CUUUUTE NOOKIT EEEEEEEEE

Your friendly anthropologist here, living in the US South for fieldwork. I went to Walmart on my first ever solo mission this week, got very lost, and bought some pink hunting camo moccasin slippers.

Okay, cats time! We picked up fosters yesterday. A mom and SIX kittens. So I have ten cats and two dogs for the next few weeks. It is chaos and I love it.

So... I’m heading out momentarily to my 10-year high school reunion. I swore I wouldn’t go, but I think curiosity and FOMO got the best of me. I’m feeling a little nervous/self-conscious about the fact that, unlike a huge chunk of my classmates, I don’t have a husband or a baby, or even a boyfriend. Intellectually,…
