Sometimes I wonder what the everloving FUCK my parents were thinking letting me watch shows like Unsolved Mystery and Rescue 911. Hello, anxiety. I also recall a Lifetime movie where a victim of domestic violence (played by Jo from Facts of Life) gets stabbed/her neck stomped on by her psychotic ex. I think that’s why…

The Unsolved Mysteries theme song is responsible for many sleepless nights during my childhood.

Yup, the antidepressant I’m using is the only one I CAN use (Latuda) and it doesn’t go generic til July 2018 (thanks, US Patent Office and shitty pharmaceutical companies). Until then, I can’t afford it without the free clinic I go to. I have a 180 day supply at home that I filled before I was laid off, but I’m…

I am covered under Obamacare and was diagnosed, finally at twenty six, as ADD. I am taking a medication which has no generic. I must have this medication especially considering I finally understand why I have never felt any kind of psychological integrity. You and I can’t survive without our meds!

Why are they still trying with this shit? Just to be fucking contrary? Just so they can remove all traces of Barack Obama?

I take this so fucking personally. If they do this, people like my boyfriend, who is using Obamacare while freelancing and trying to get hired somewhere permanently, will have to spend their entire salary on drugs just to live. JUST TO FUCKING BREATHE (asthma) AND NOT DROP DEAD IN THE STREET (insulin-dependent…

Combine this with the fact that they’re gutting mental health care, and I am seriously sitting here at my desk nearly in tears. I am getting by on the local free clinic for my mood stabilizer and antidepressant (the latter costs $2000 a month without insurance), and they have limited therapy as well, but if that ends…

HOW CAN YOU NOT AFFORD BOOTSTRAPS, POOR PEOPLE? OR BOOTS?

Not sure if it still is, but the No.1 cause of bankruptcy pre-ACA was unpaid medical bills.

Still trying to treat healthcare as a consumable service, I see... because it’s been working SO WELL.

I blame all the center- and right-leaning people who voted for Gary Fucking Johnson instead of, you know, the candidate that actually had a chance of winning.

Remember how people were saying there was really no difference between him and Hillary and millions of women believed it?

Clearly you did not read the article.

It also helps if you read the article before you comment.

It’s my youngest kid’s 10th birthday today. The joke was on me because he was 10lbs at birth (vaginally). To celebrate we always do fun treats - this year it will be Rice Krispie treat sushi. Here are some from previous years:

My friend announced that she had actually been faking her pregnancy for the last 6 months. She said she bought the fake baby belly because she wanted people to be nice to her when she went out. Then she started getting free stuff and it just snowballed out of control. She said she was going to a therapist to get help…

This is one I pulled off, but it is very mild. It’s the only real prank I’ve ever done - even at eight I knew I had peaked and it would be downhill from there so I never tried again.

I went to a residential high school for gifted students, so I was obviously a high strung over achiever. I get called out of dorm room by the hall director, who yells at me and says I’m getting written up because I was unaccounted for at the last fire drill. I’m starting to freak out because I knew I was there. I…

I got married on April 1. Like most pranks it seemed like a good idea at the time. It wasn’t.

I detest pranks and practical jokes with a passion. I also hate surprises, so theer is that. I feel like intentionally trying to make another person like an idiot is a shi!tty thing to do.
