This comment is a masterpiece. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks, yours is great too! Genital-related usernames forever.

This is good life advice.

I grew up in Hippieville and the thing that made against white people with dreads (before learning about cultural appropriation, obviously) was the time that I was on the bus and I watched a spider crawl out of this white woman’s nest of dreads who was seated in front of me. I still shudder just thinking about it.

I worked at a sex store for a few years and got so many people asking me if Real Dolls or hypothetical sex robots bothered me as a feminist that I’ve considered it in detail. I tend to take your point of view. I have issues with the literal objectification of women’s bodies, but I’m okay with them if it takes these…

Your username made me chortle. Thanks.

UPDATE: I went with the Balvenie. I wish I had left a bit later so I could have seen all your awesome replies! So far I like the Balvenie. I’m not good at sorting out different flavors or anything, but it’s not harsh burn-wise and the taste is interesting in a good way.

That was one in the Google results! Glad to know that it’s confirmed as a good one, haha. I’m off to the liquor store so we’ll see what they have. I’ll report back!

Thanks for your recs! I don’t know anything about whiskey/whisky so I was worried that most of the brands that came up on Google when I searched might have been hard to find. Thanks again!

Thanks for the recommendations, and I’ll find that Adequate Man article!

Hey y’all, I hope you’re having a good weekend! This is the start of my spring break and it couldn’t come soon enough. Not completely unrelated advice needed:

That’s sounds similar to the Spoon Theory. It’s been invaluable for explaining my limitations to other people.

My mom was molested by a stranger as a child and her own mother did nothing about it. My mom’s older sister (12 years old at the time) had to call the police. When I started asking about sex at age 5, my mom told me her story. It was mostly explaining what touches aren’t okay and that if anyone touches me in ways I…

I was raised in a Mazda family (like, “multiple third gen RX-7s and first gen RX-7 SCCA race cars” type of Mazda family) so this picture threw me for a goddamn loop. I was going to lose my shit if I was wrong about it being a Miata.

Oh my god, I was so confused looking at that. I was all “That’s a fucking Miata. I’d know that car anywhere.” But then I saw the emblem and was turning my head like a confused dog. Thank you for confirming that I do know what Miatas look like.

FAFSA and taxes filed party? Because fuck yeah, I’m getting money.

Have you talked with a psychologist or psychiatrist? I also have (had) a severe needle phobia. Like, so bad that my mom gave up trying to get my vaccinations halfway through the Hep A/Hep B series when I was 12 because I would try to punch, scratch and bite anyone involved in the injection. At 19 I started a…

Exactly. The other downside is that the questions only address so many aspects of performance, none of which is the aspect that I want to give feedback on. For example, it asks “Does the professor use class time effectively?” If the actual content and structure of the class were effective and the only unproductive…

As a student I 100% support getting rid of student evaluations. I’ve had some not-great professors that I want to help by giving good, constructive feedback. But I can’t, because the evaluation surveys have been completely neutered due to students using the surveys as a way to abuse professors. There’s no option to…
