Counsellors have seen it all/heard it all. Please feel free to open up.

I’m so sorry this is happening. This sounds incredibly hard. It might help to check out a meeting of Al-Anon or other support group for family members of people with addiction; they might also have ideas about how you can take care of yourself while figuring out what help you can or should offer your father. Hugs. 

Holidays this year are...tense. my dad has always had on and off problems with drinking. Apparently sometime during the winter last year, he started again. And it took my mom almost a year to figure it out. In the meantime he took money from people for jobs(he is self employed), and only did some of the work, using…

Yup, code has been changed.  

I love how SNS is getting earlier every week. Soon it will be Saturday Morning Social. Everyone will report on their breakfast foods.

I love your updates. This is my cat Ollie, I met him when I was homeless living in a hostel. He was a stray they had taken in. He followed me everywhere from when we first met. I was so lucky they gave him to me when I was given social housing. He's 14 and I love him to bits. 

I was more skeptical that they stuck Nick Jonas at the head of the table???? 

Naomi... the thirst is real.

Does Naomi always have Thanksgiving meals only wearing underwear because she’s a really messy eater?

It all came off as clever marketing to me; taking a moderate Democrat judge and turning her into a liberal pop-icon for certain types of (white) feminists who still say “yaass queen!” unironically. Someone came up with “Notorious R.B.G.” and went from there, I guess.

It is getting to be a little weird. Why only RBG? Where are the Sotomayor fanatics? Where’s the love for Kagan?

David’s Bridal is bullshit because they sell your info to local MLMers.  Mary Kay, Lipsense, etc.  

Wow, Lindsay.  I thought you hit bottom, but you trolling to hook up with a Kardashian cast off (as if that would somehow get you an in to them) is the thirstiest thing I think I have ever seen.  And I said you were thirstier in a comment involving the Kardashians.  Sad. 

When I was in a month long coma, my very good friend documented every detail of my treatment on her open facebook account. Apparantly it was to let people know my condition, which was quite dire. When I found out about it, and read the posts, I was furious. Basically my business was out there for anyone to see,…

Yeah, I just wore bands that were four inches too big until I was in my mid-20s.

I can’t even imagine. I saw something on Twitter about some of the Bay Area museums being free for a bit, because museums actually have to regulate their air quality as a matter of course. Any chance that would be an option?

Ugh, I am so sorry. Men can be so fucking cowardly about literally any sort of confrontation, or anything that requires emotional labor, and so often we end up paying the price for that.

Does anyone have any advice on how to do the whole app dating thing if you assume that all men are terrible until proven otherwise?

So, the guy I’ve been dating for 6 months ghosted on me this week. I feel pretty down and relegated to spinsterhood for the rest of my days. That’s all. Back to my red wine for the evening.

Pish-posh. Go big or go gnome: La Mer The Essence is $ 2,500 for 3 × o.5 ounces.
