I was kicked out at 16. I wish that someone had phrased it that way at the time because I didn’t actually cut my family off until I was 33 and they managed to fuck me up even more in the intervening years. Teach him life skills.

I haven’t read this yet (I will) but if you were a person that gets contact embarrassment you would have figured this out years ago.

Um. How about none of the above? A therapist is a person who you are paying to provide a service. If they are not providing said service in a way that is meeting your goals just don’t reschedule. I had a conversation in a Jez SNS with someone whose therapist was the fucking worst. And she was all “oh, I see your point…

My mother used to have our dog lick the wound when we got cut or scraped up. Is this weird? It seems very strange now and I do not do that with my dog now.

For a lot of reasons, fertility treatments are not an option for us. We either catch naturally or we don’t. My husband has no proven fertility either, so we may get him tested but I 100% am unwilling to do a clomid cycle. I will seek out long term BC when I hit 40 but until then, if it happens it happens. If it…

Tres leches is the pinnacle of cake. My first time having it was from someone’s Mexican (yes actually Mexican) grandma. She was a customer at my bar and brought me a slice from one she had made for baby shower for one of her daughters. It was a revelation.

Calling people “transgenders” is very close to calling them things.

It sound fantastic. We are now on a hunt in the US to try some. We have Indian and Japanese curry regularly.

I come from a super fertile family. And in my teens and 20s got effortlessly pregnant 4 times. So when I started trying at 37 for my last one didn’t expect to have issues. Half my aunts and my mother have had babies after 40. Well, it’s been 15 months and still no luck. Shocked is putting it mildly. So, just be…

Malaysian curry you say? I have not had the pleasure. Or is it Malaysian squash?

I did. That was your characterization. And I called you out on it. And you have since spent a lot of words arguing about a lot of other stuff. You are straw manning alllll over the damn place.

And yet, you characterize people with active sex lives as insecure. So who is the judgmental person here?

I think I can be a little more concise.

Insecure? Or have had a lifetime of religious people being complete asses and comparing them to used chewing gum?

Gee grandpa, did one of the kids let you borrow a smart phone?

Oh, you should read it. It’s hard. I was always very aware that this was it and tried to savor it. But I had to find out what happens. I’ve read it probably half a dozen times since it came out and it is comforting now.

Good. I’m working my way through the industrial revolution books right now and was half wishing for a version of The Truth but told from the perspective of the Watch. Then I yelled at myself for putting something with such potential for disaster into the universe.

The dad who wants to his coach his daughter’s boyfriend is SUPER CREEPY. He needs to back the fuck up. If my dad ever talked to one of my high school boyfriends about how to please me? So gross and creepy. This applies to my mother as well. There are plenty of resources for this girl that don’t involve her dad…
