I think that many women are constantly fine tuning their spidey sense for creep detection without even realizing it. When the spidey sense is validated, we have an “aha” moment and might want to share it.

That’s awesome news!

I’m an alumni and don’t currently give them money so this makes me even less likely to do so, in the event that I win the lottery or something.

It was set in Monterey and the surrounding area (the book was set in Australia). Some of the locations were familiar to me, but I think some of the houses were actually located in Southern California based on the fact they were actually beachfront and some of the scenery.

I assumed it was San Jose or San Francisco - the show made references to Silicon Valley

I hope you feel better soon! I had a great time but standing in the cold for 2 hours and being in a crowd are definitely more taxing than running errands or going for a short walk.

Americans are weird about cash gifts, so there’s this slippery slope where wedding registries are ok but honeymoon donation sites aren’t, or both are ok but cash gifts aren’t, or gift cards are ok but cash isn’t. It makes no sense. Further complicating things is the fact that some people like to know that their…

My ex is 5'11" and his weight ranged between 200-220 lbs when we were together. He was stocky/musclar at the higher weight but nowhere near looking like Trump. No way that Trump is 239 lbs.

That’s certainly possible - hopefully the medical exams and interviews will shed more light on the situation. Having said that, a mid-40s woman who’s got a long track record of fertility may still be able to have a kid or two more, and if the adult daughters are really malnourished they may not be menstruating…

they’ll only report the results that were ok, kind of like they did last year. when I get my annual physical there’s a whole page of bloodwork results. we won’t see that for trump

I got some from my neighbors, who bought it from King Arthur Flour. I’ve had friends who started their own from scratch, and that works fine too.

My husband is out of town, and I’m semi-snowed in here, so I’m cooking up a storm. Today - prepped quinoa for the week, chopped up 1.5 large butternut squash, made sourdough to bake tomorrrow, made pumpkin-spice bread. Tomorrow I’m making the butternut squash soup, baking the sourdough, making chicken and possibly…

I went and ordered a bunch of stuff last night. (I was already using the 10% azelaic acid) I really like that I could 1 oz quantities at around $7-10 each.

Thanks for the The Ordinary suggestions! Have you tried the Paula’s Choice Resist 10% glycolic acid treatment? I like it for a once a week deep exfoliation.

I’m the same - I love to buy skincare products, makeup, shampoo, etc, but I have sensitive skin and a fragrance allergy, so that really limits what works for me.

Unless you have split ends that propagate up the hair shaft, the frequent trims won’t do anything other than help remove layers. My hair grows super slow too and for way too many years I had stylists who thought “just a trim” meant 4". Ugh! Now I have a stylist who listens and my hair is growing faster thanks to…

I’m in the same boat. Shampoo, conditioner, wash face, put on deodorant, brush teeth, brush hair. Most days I use a beta hydroxy gel, and add moisturizer or sunscreen as needed.

I’m the same way - I’m awkward and don’t pick up on signals/don’t give off a dateable vibe when I’m going about my daily life, but did fine with old school yahoo personals/match/okCupid style internet dating. I’m old and married now, but I’d probably would’ve enjoyed Tinder at least some of the time.

Ugh - my mom is very similar.

Fellow introvert with resting bitch face here. Don’t feel bad - I had a similar experience trying to meet guys in real life. Online dating is better because people know that if you’re on it, you’re interested in meeting someone. It’s not ideal for finding FWB, but you may be able to find someone who wants to keep…
