Book/blog recommendations (tw -dv)
I’m looking for any book or blog recommendations for life after intimate partner violence / dv. What the hell happens after you get out, have the therapy, feel better, but still feel very guarded.
72% think you should do this thing you don't wanna
I was listening to the radio this afternoon and the host was asking whether she should go to the movies with her partner when she really didn’t want to see the movie.
How do I write this as a comment?
On a student paper.
Have sizes changed?
(CN - sizes and size mind fucker-ry)
I know that clothing sizes in general are awful. I own clothes from the same company (Mexx) and I can get into S M L LX, and it doesn’t make sense.
Emails you wish you could send

New car owner - I has questions
I was adding more windshield wiper fluid and noticed my coolant level looks low. Like it was below the min. I watched this video on how to add more
Fictional characters behind the mask

Qualities I admire
And of course want for myself.
I don't understand... administration?
At least I think it’s administration. Committees? Organizations.
What is an average amount of suffering?
I offered my services to do patient experience lectures. I did warn that I don’t have a happy ending in the illness they wanted, but I thought my experience was valid because it’s good to know what can go wrong and the beginning of my story is like everyone else’s.
Reading comprehension issues, or just not listening?
This is from a while ago, but it’s one of my biggest pet peeves. Sometimes I don’t understand the point of conversations. If you have no intention of listening don’t bother writing.
Paying for autographs
Went to fanexpo, basically Canada’s Comiccon. This was the first year I bought an autograph and a selfie with a celeb because I decided I was okay with paying $40 for it.

Da da Da date date - as told in gifs
Well shit, that agonizing 2 sentence email resulted in a date. Well coffee, but an outing nevertheless. Since I haven’t actively tried to date in like over 2 years, this is a win and scary. I’m trying not to over think, because it’s coffee. Mostly pleased that I just went asked rather than did nothing.
As told in gifs
