That is hideous, and forget that landlord. The mold would probably kill Mr. VonQueso. I hope you get out and have a lovely wedding!

Dont bother with the expense of a lawyer. Go right to the health department and file complete with photos of all the mold and squishyness. Then, at your request, they will direct you to whomever handles fair housing and rental disputes.

Ugh god that’s awful. I’ve lived in some places with mold problems and shitty landlords; it’s fucking gross and miserable. You have my sympathy.

I got major heebie jeebies reading your descriptions, honestly the house sounds like a Lovecraftian nightmare. It’s unfortunate that you’ve had to deal with this for so long and now need to move, but it sounds like it’s probably for the best considering how cheap and stubborn your landlord is. I hope it works out for…

I’m not allergic to mold, but I still got sick when we had a mold problem and the landlord was too cheap to do the right thing. I went to the city and she ended up having to spend even more in the long term, and she still hasn’t had the other affected apartments checked for mold, because no one has made her. I’m still…

Poor baby! Well, thank goodness you decided to move, because the place is uninhabitable. It ought to be condemned, and if you call the health department, it probably will be.

I only have to empty mine twice a day. In the morning when I get up and before my shower at night. So unless you have a super extremely heavy flow, you won’t need to worry about work bathrooms. Cups hold way more than tampons.

And you can just dump and wipe with TP if you have to.

I only need to dump and wash it morning and evening. If do you need to dump it during the day and are in a public washroom without access to the sink, you can just wipe it out and reinsert, and then wash later.

I honestly haven’t had much issue with it, mostly because if I empty and rinse it at home before work, I’m usually good to go for the whole day (though, my periods aren’t usually very heavy). If I do have to change it while I’m in a bathroom with stalls, I usually empty it out, wipe it out with some TP, then stick it…

My flow is medium, and I only change it twice—once in the shower in the morning, and once in the evening. I’ve never had to empty it at work. Going on 7 years using a Diva Cup, no regrets!

You have to dump it throughout the day, but you can make do with just wiping it out with TP or wipes if you’re in a public bathroom. Has to be washed every twelve hours. I wash it whenever I’m at home.

If you have a lighter flow like me, you can treat your period like brushing your teeth—something you deal with in the morning and at night. I've never had to empty in less than 12 hours, even on freak heavy cycles.

Fortunately I’m light enough (save one or two days) to where I don’t have to empty and rinse throughout the day. I can usually make it from morning to after work without doing it. But it can be messy. There’s not a whole lot of discharge on the outside of the cup normally but emptying it can get it and your hands…

You’d want to use it at home only until you get the hang of it. For my first first cycles with mine, removal was... unpredictable at best, a hideous mess at worst.

Once you’re experienced, though, you only get a little blood on your fingertips, which can be easily wiped most of the way off with tissue. Carrying a…

Usually you can keep the sucker in there for about 8 hours, so unless you have a super heavy flow, you may not need to empty it out while you are at work. You can empty in the morning, then again after work. It is not at all like a tampon that must be changed every couple hours. The size of the cup will also matter,…

You only have to do it every 12 hours, so for people working “normal” work hours, you shouldn’t have to change it at work. I change mine at 7:00 AM when I wake up and 7:00 PM when I get home from school.

I switched to my sckoon cup whilst I was in college and dealing with the whole non onesie bathroom scene. While on campus I’d just dump it out and sometimes wipe it off with some toilet paper then once I got home at the end of the day I’d actually wash it out. I’ve been doing that for two years now and only wish I…

I use the disposable SoftCups and they are the greatest invention of our time. Toss ‘em when you’re done so there is no rinsing to deal with. On my heaviest day they last 7-8 hours, on a regular day they truly last 12 hours which means I put one in at 8 in the morning (ignore my period all day) and switch it out at 8…

You only need to change it in the morning and at night. The cups are about the size of a shot glass, and on average a woman only bleeds about a shot glass full of blood per period, so it should rarely get filled. Plus, it suctions on, so I imagine it would not leak regardless. I’ve heard menstrual cups were designed…

You can totally convert! It’s totally doable to dump it without rinsing in a sink. Just wet a paper towel before you go in the stall, dump it and wipe down. No big deal. You’ll likely only have to do that once or twice while you’re at work (it’s good for 4-8 hours depending on your flow.) You will almost certainly get…
