“Loose meat sandwiches.”

I would get crazy ingrown hairs no matter which method I used, and in my opinion the effects of waxing never lasted long enough to justify the trouble or expense. So I saved up and got laser hair removal. It has been life-changing. I would never wear shorts or a skirt before, and now I don’t mind at all. There has…

I shave my legs, because wax hurts like crazy and also doesn’t seem to work (it often takes off skin, and very little hair!). I have epilated, which is more effective than waxing, but still takes longer than shaving for me and hurts so much (I ice first, mind you, and it may just be that I’m really sensitive?!).

I have started using a trimmer (or whatever you call the device used for buzz cuts on a head) for my legs. I don’t really like shaving, I do not have a bathtub so shaving would be a pain in the ass anyways, and no one actually cares if my legs are very smooth. It doesn’t hurt at all and just looks like I’m a day past…

Shave. Sparingly, though, as I am not particularly hairy and generally wear trousers or tights.

I shave because I have very light body hair, and waiting to grow it out enough to wax would take years.

I’ve only ever waxed. To quote my mum, “never take a razor to any part of your body!” Making your own wax and learning to use it is a rite of passage in our culture (Egyptian) so I’ve been doing it since I was a teenager. It probably doesn’t hurt that I’m fairly hairless save for my head (I don’t grow any hair…

Hello kittens! I’m drinking red wine and feeling okay. I survived a meeting with a network about a would be documentary series, taped two TV shows, continue to see the considerate and kind Bartender, and my life continues to improve, now that I’ve given my terrible awful family members the heave ho out of my life. I…

No advice, really, just solidarity. Online dating has never worked well for me. I’m about to move for work (again) to a city where I know not a single human being and I’m just depressed about it. I’ve been considering putting out money for a matchmaker or dating coach, but then sometimes I just think it’s a lost…

Yes, no, don’t.

I’ve been single for like 6 years now, in part because I had so much past abuse shit to wade through in my DBT treatment for BPD and I wanted to get my shit in order before dating.

Man, you are mean as hell. BPD is one of the most common mood disorders out there. It affects 1.6% of the population. You probably know lots of people with it that don’t fit into your bigoted stereotypes.

Stop calling people with BPD “borderlines.” They are human beings, not diagnoses. And your claims sound like they’re based on anecdotal evidence (“a quick breeze through any support group”)—THAT’s irresponsible.

I am also moving. All my sympathy- it is hell.

It’s the packing that irritates me the most. After the third time we moved, I left my books in the boxes.

We’re moving again. I’m so tired of moving.

My dad has paw prints from all of our dogs (eight of them) on the inside of his forearm, and he’s 79.

I just became vegan.
