wow, so sorry my autoimmune disease is annoying for YOU. 

Seconded. I’ve also worked in enough restaurants to know that if you get the wrong server or if things are really busy, they’re not going to bother doing due diligence. Just let me know up front what is vegan so I don’t have to worry about eggs killing me and you don’t have to play 20 questions with the kitchen and…

She is just effing exhausting. It’s not all about you, Demi.

Oh Demi - people shouldn’t have to reveal all their habits and circumstances to the world. Saying gluten free and/or sugar free isn’t “diet culture” unless its calling them “healthier choices!” (I have to avoid a crapton of food but not for the reasons Demi thinks and I should expect my froyo place to tell me which…

...am I the only one who has never had problems with the traditional method and peeling eggs?

Caregiver of a rescue German shepherd here. They are WORK. And, they are a little bitey, its in the breed. Add on how many strangers he may be coming in contact with? Sheesh. Anyway.. I refer to myself as his emotional support human and here he is!

Seconding this. Everyone is rightfully talking about preventing the spread of the virus but wearing a mask has made me less self-conscious since the half of my face I like the least isn’t visible. I can smile with my eyes without having to twist my mouth into a polite grimace.

I am a fat gay man married off to a guy who pretty much looks the way he did 1/3 of a century ago, when I first met him. I was thin and muscular then too. He maintains a regular gym regimen (to the point where, when Emperor Cuomo shut down the gyms, we installed our own). I, on the other hand, had my metabolism…

That’s a beautiful man and all, but I’m mostly struck that he really, really takes good care of his dog. That’s a shiny, healthy, happy doggo having a great doggo day.  That fills me with joy. 

This will warm your heart on the coldest of days.

Imagine any other line of work in the whole world where the workers had that demented sky-high level of butthurt whenever anybody anywhere uttered any criticism of any one of their number, causing them all to go into a frenzy of retribution.

Yogurt will keep for MONTHS past the expiration, BTW. I’ve eaten Yoplait and Chobani Flips 3-4 months late (bought too many during a Costco sale) and god, they were all just fine. Expiration dates have to be provided and so many are identical, but incorrect.

Listen, I love dogs. I prefer my own dog to most people. But the weird fucking language people use to imitate dogs drives me up the wall. “hoomans.”

I got my first shot yesterday. I cried on my way to the hospital where they were administering it. Today I’m singing A Whole New World. Can’t wait to vaccinate my daughter! Fingers crossed those trials go smoothly and speedily.

I received the first of the Pfizer vaccine yesterday. The injection site has swelled up, very similar to how the area can swell after a flu shot, but it doesn’t hurt. (Hopefully it stays that way.) Because I’m on a disease modifying therapy for my multiple sclerosis, I had to wait twelve weeks before I could get the…

First shot, I only had sore arm where they poked me. Second shot, I was really fatigued with body aches for about 12-24 hours. My girlfriend (who’s dad is battling stomach cancer) called me crying to say thank you. I was confused, I deserve no thanks or anything like that. But apparently, the number of people around…

I got my first shot a couple of weeks ago. I cannot emphasize enough the improvement in my mental health since then.

Got my 2nd stab this past week. Pretty happy about it and just patiently waiting until more people can get it and things start to resemble the pre covid days some. 

My wife has her first appointment tomorrow. We’re fucking celebrating after the second shot, because the fact that it took THIS LONG to give teachers access to the vaccine is literally criminal.
