I think what drives me crazy about this is that the U.S. has a terrible survival rate for new mothers and newborns for a first world country. It’s actually been going down. Lawmakers and the anti-choicers want to focus millions of tax-payer dollars to defend restricting access to abortion for hypothetical fetuses…

For postal workers, FYI, they are not allowed to accept cash and gifts or gift cards must be under a certain amount ($15-20?). I didn’t know this until I checked the USPS website, so give it a look if you’re gifting but your mail carrier. They could be disciplined otherwise (maybe they have one if those bosses). Last…

Fun fact: Greyhounds have a higher percentage of being a universal doggie blood donors than other dogs. Ask your vet to test and if there are any places that have a dog blood donation program (a university vet hospital in my city has one for example). No stress for the dogs. They get spoiled the whole time, and it…

These mixers are amazing. I have a regular one I purchased 10 years ago (for more), and it’s still going strong. I wish I had more complaints so I had an excuse to upgrade!

Is this really a big deal? I was an extremely picky bland eater most of childhood because I hated anything peppery. Also, my mom was a terrible cook, so bland food were safe. I thought pepper tasted awful, so it wasn’t a repetition thing. It’s just how I was wired. My tastes grew as I got older, but I’m still not a…

Yeah I have to agree. The majority of the people being hurt by this are the ones who voted for it, so let them sit and spin on what they wanted

You know how this happened? By people (millennials) not voting! I’m so sick and tired of the people who can’t be bothered to get off their mom’s couch and go vote whining about how bad things have gotten. No sh*t! Anyone with an average IQ knew what would happened if you put that fake orange ass in charge. To his…

Something I wish that would come up with all the #metoo and women’s movement is a conversation about how dangerous it can be to reject men and what we can do to stop that from being the case. Look at burntfoot’s reaction, for example. He got rejected, now he’s angry and calling the girl a “bitch” for not sharing his…

Sorry, no not all gamers. Of course not all gamers are like this. This falls under “no shit,” but since you need validation, there you go. This is a subset of addicted gamers. She’s not the only one this had happened too but she probably feels that way because of stupid comments like yours

I have some experience with this, so please learn from my mistakes. Your guy is a gamer. Your relationship was the real life game. Marriage was the final boss. He won. He’s done. Some people are asking how you didn’t know this, but I’m betting he put quite a bit of effort into winning you and seeming like a good guy.…

It’s kind of funny the amount of people complaining about women ghosting who clearly aren’t reading the replies about why we do it. Men don’t handle rejection well. Ok, I know this is too general of a statement, so how about the majority of men don’t take rejection well. Read the comments. I think it’s averaging 25%…

You already know you’re not compatible. Don’t do it

You’re going to have to split. It’s not going to work. This is coming from experience. He feels emasculated because you make more than him and understand finances better than he does. His punishment is for you for having a career is to pay for everything, and he also creates debts that he can’t pay off but you can to…

I keep a small emergency fund for pet expenses ($500) and anything much bigger than that will go to credit so to not completely wipe out my emergency fund for other emergencies. I should increase that now that my pets are older. Just had to take my 12 yr old doggo to the ER vet for stroke like symptoms. Nope, not a…

High five for trying to be upfront and honest from the get-go! I see some negative comments on here from guys, but they’re 100% as guilty of BS online photos as women. When I was dating online, 2/3 of the guys I met in person were 2 inches shorter and 20lbs heavier than their profiles showed. I met one guy who “likes…

Digital libraries have free audio books. I’ve never seen something on Audible that my library doesn’t have. You might have to sign up for a waiting list to borrow it, but again, it’s free and all online. Check out your local library’s website

When I was car shopping, no dealership answered emails I sent except for an auto “thanks for your inquiry” reply. I wasn’t asking, “what’s your lowest price.” I was wanting to know more about certain vehicles in stock and maybe schedule a test drive. Nope, no answers, so I bought a car from CarMax. So much easier. My…

Yes, this was an issue with my ex as well. According to him, I didn’t have a “real job” so I should do all the housework, shopping, etc. He refused to help out around the house at all. Big part of the reason we split.

How’s that working out in California, especially places like Silicon Valley?

100% agree. Having Columbus on the list is actually giving me anxiety. Part of our deal is 15 year property tax abatement, income tax refunds, and a slew of other tax payer funded goodies. I think the Columbus Dispatch has the letter for our Amazon proposal published. It’s such a crap deal for the hardworking people…
