Yes, I think that was her point. I... don’t think it came across like she was hoping it would.

I agree that Mary's suicide was over the top and unnecessary, but slight correction here - it wasn't just that her meds had been tampered with, it was her abusive ex-husband showing up and calling her a worthless mother and getting into her head.

The whole thing with his fiancé really bothered me. He was like “Oh hey Rachel I dumped her so we can be together!” And then she just stopped working on the show, I guess? And all the crew just accepted that he'd replaced her with Rachel? Idk man.

I had forgotten all about Dirt! I loved that show.

Me too! I kept scrolling back up to the pic as I was reading and was super confused.

I don't know why, but that really bums me out.

Ugh, I have no advice for you but I can totally commiserate and offer Internet hugs. It’s been nearly two years since I’ve been in a relationship and I still manage to get pulled back into my ex’s shit and it makes me think I can't date because I still care about him as a person, even though I would never get back…

I’m an extrovert when I’m actually around people, but have been more of an introvert for the last 8 months or so due to life circumstances and not leaving the house for days at a time. I just spent a full week at a family reunion with about 30 people, and when I needed my “me time” I just told people I needed to study…

I was in an airport bathroom today and a woman was on a very obvious business call while on the pot. Like wtf, those automatic flushers are loud! Your client is gonna know you're calling from the john!!

Ruby Redbird is my number one ride or die poolside beer.

How did I not know this?? Off to do some googling!

Agreed! It doesn't even make sense. Like how long was he in the bathroom that someone else had time to show up, strip, and start making out with the person selling him weed? Do better, PR team.

I had a whole response written and my phone freaked out so I don’t think it posted. But basically, I remember that being the reaction too and it doesn’t surprise me that she responded like that. Apparently years later the GM motto is still “double down when you do something shitty!”

Sorry about the job, but congrats on the novel progress! I appreciate getting confirmation I didn’t get a job over being left wondering as well, but as someone who used to interview 20 people for one position I know it’s not always feasible.

I had forgotten all about the “guest editor” fiasco! That was a dark time in Jez land.

I wish we knew more about where all the editors and writers stood on this, because I’d like to avoid giving clicks to anyone besides them who thought The Post was a-okay important journalism!

Yes, I noticed a marked difference after two weeks. Seriously a miracle drug for me. I was on lexapro years ago and it was an awful experience, so I told my doctor that and she made sure to give me something entirely different. I know it’s frustrating but sometimes you have to just cycle through til you find something…

Thanks for the info! I have an appointment Tuesday so I'll definitely bring it up. The potential liver damage is definitely a concern to me as well.

I don’t get this either, especially because the amount cited here doesn’t seem that high to me? My little brother paid around $2k for his wife’s ring, and that was with money he saved up from random jobs while in college. It’s a fairly simple ring. I just assumed the monstrosities of diamonds on diamonds on diamonds I…

I can top that - I'm 27 and have a classmate who was divorced twice and engaged once by the time he turned 25! I'm not judging though, as I was divorced by 23... But that's made me super cautious to ever remarry!
