I was just thinking this. My mother is a GP and I’m all in favour of using actual medical treatment, but at a certain point it becomes about just whatever gives you some comfort. When I was about 10, my grandma got brain cancer, and all the medical treatments did was ensure that she was miserable and not herself for…

If ONJ has stage IV, there’s not all that much they can do for her at this point. She’s already done the whole cancer treatment thing, and at this point they are just trying to keep it out of her soft tissues. I can’t blame her for seeking treatment however she wants. My best friend is going get through this exact…

This is one of the few things, though it pains me to say it, likely has fuck all to do with Trump.

Seasick. Both.

You realize the side effect of folks carrying more cash is usually more muggings right?

Well, she is getting radiation therapy, too, so maybe the “wellness” twaddle is just to make her feel like there’s something she can control.

True. And I don’t think it’s even a conscious thing with most people. You’re with someone at that point for about 3-5 years. You have a job and you maybe want to get a house or something. Here’s this guy and you get along with him well enough. Friends are getting married. It’s nice to have someone to bring to parties…

I joke about that a lot with friends. Your marriage contract should be up for renewal every five years. “Should we keep doing this?” “Sure, for another five and then let’s revisit with these new terms.”

I don’t think that’s what she’s saying at all.

I hope we get to that point as marriage slowly moves from the utopical “till death do us part” paradigm toward a “eh, let’s do this while it makes sense for both”.

A very wise friend of mine believes that marriage licenses, like driver’s licenses, should come with an renewal or expiration date. As I get older, the more I agree.

There is a reason that in The Emperor’s New Clothes it is a kid that points out that the Emperor is naked. Children are very good at seeing past all the superficial bullshit that adults think is important. They can see that under the fancy suit and ten tons of self-importance, Paul Ryan is just a spineless little…

“I don’t want to be associated with a man who puts his party before his country.”

Why wouldn’t he know ricotta is cheese? Weird assumption to make.

My neighbor gave me a box of lemon ricotta cookies for Christmas. And some weed! I live in the greatest neighborhood in the world!

I’m not sure if that’d be harmful, just useless. The real question is were you putting mouthwash in your eyes?

I came here and didn’t see color.

For once I’d like to not read a divorce announcement. I get that celebrities want/need to stay ahead of gossip and speculation but really why release a statement? Or, like some of the replies to your post say, just a simple “we’re divorced”

I had a laparoscopic exploration surgery and the surgeon removed my appendix. Am just completely floored at their lack of accountability.

They do not care. I’ve made this comment here before but it bears repeating, the Republicans do not believe all this dirt coming out about Trunp because they made up “crisis” and “scandals” and “ethics problems” out of thin air when it came to Hillary and Pbama so they think the left is doing the same now. They KNOW…
