Big hug! Fingers crossed it’s okay. Have a ball dress shopping! Do you know what you want?

Last SNS I posted about my dad’s sudden prostate cancer diagnosis, with further test results pending. We’re still waiting on one test, but he met with the doctor and surgeon this week and they said that the tumor hadn’t spread very far. He’s going to need a prostatectomy, but things are looking better than they were…

I have a brag and some accompanying encouragement for job-seeker Jezzies (not sure if there is a brag thread yet): I GOT A NEW JOB! Last year I left my only post-college company after 8 years to take time off and write and shit. I’m still writing and shit, but needed a day job to pay the bills and engage my mind and…

I had similar problems in my twenties, and still do, on and off. It can be pretty scary to have lumpy, painful breasts, but many women do and it does not necessarily mean you have cancer (although it is good you are getting that possibility checked out!). I hope your test results are able to set your mind at ease.…

My MIL made it through two rounds of breast cancer and one of lung cancer, appeared in court for her clients while wearing a turban from losing her hair. She’s just now cutting back on her practice, and that’s because she should retire, but she’d get bored.

I don’t know about other people, but it would be very hard for me to try to reconnect with someone I still have feelings for while having zero tolerance for crap. Either my feelings would betray me, or my zero-tolerance meter would be dialed passed zero all the way into negative. If I were her, I would not bother with…

Yes. Several. I highly recommend them - but make sure you do your measurements.

Chances are you’ll be just fine, although it’s understandably scary. Good luck! And don’t listen to that other person—pain does make it less likely to be cancerous.

Why would you say that? Not helpful, as you’re not this person’s doctor. Neither am I, but as someone who’s done extensive reporting on the subject and talked to multiple oncologists, I know many experts will agree that a cancerous tumor is less likely to be painful than something like a cyst. Good luck,…

I miss I Thee Dread, even though I got married two months ago.

What a trash monster. You did the right thing by blocking his ass; there’s nothing quite so pathetic as a mediocre middle-aged man trying to make a bright woman feel as shit as he does so he can control her and boost his flagging self-esteem.

He’s horny. He still has your number. Run.

Really quick post because I’m celebrating with family and friends but....I GOT ENGAGED TODAY!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhh. I have no idea why the thought I can’t wait to share this with my Jezzie friends crossed my mind at this exciting time but it did and here I am. Love you guys and AHHHHHHH!!!!

I welcome my gray hairs. I figure my witching powers and wisdom can’t be far behind.

I ripped out my first grey hair. Then the second, third, and fourth. When I realized they’d then brought all their sixty-eight friends with the intent to colonize, I gave up.

You know where I’m grey?

Maybe her response is banal, but the challenges she faced to get to the point of dressing her kids up like pumpkins certainly can’t be compared to Blake Lively et al.

Sorry I’m not sure, I got it from the Googles. I typed in “racist, misogynistic, homophobic, xenophobic, garbage made flesh devil” and after scrolling through 10 pages of DJT’s face, this little guy came up.

Here’s what’s frustrating about this: We already knew he was a racist. He’s already dehumanized black americans, latino americans, muslim americans. He’s a racist.

This is not towards you mekki, but rather the disingenuous comment you are replying to that doesn’t understand the President of the United States damn well better be judged by a stricter standard than random people on the internet.
