Well that’s terrifying.

Off brand Bagel Bites are a big nope for me.

I second this! Or you could even lay a white cloth down on your lap so that when you’re holding the black aida over it, you can see the holes better.

“Slut!” completely subverted everyone’s expectations but it’s such a beautiful song. It’s been stuck in my head all week.

Is she not planning to re-record her debut album?

I like to imagine this person realized he was close to his friend’s house, parked nearby, texted his friend, drove by the house and honked, then parked again and waited for the friend to respond. That’s my head canon.

Yeah, this one’s tough to address because I wasn’t there when she said it. I heard it second hand from my husband. If I had been there, I definitely would have said something to her. For the most part she’s great, but my husband’s family culture is kinda like… They say things bluntly sometimes. My family was NOT like that growing up. I think there’s a happy medium to be found somewhere in there…

Sorry about your MIL. It’s great that you’ve set boundaries though.

We’re on kind of a tight budget right now, but it’s something I’ve considered.

I definitely feel like most baby boomers do not see neurodivergence or mental health challenges as legitimate. They don’t get how ADHD or depression or anxiety could cause someone to struggle so much with everyday tasks.

Thanks for responding. That’s an interesting way to frame it that I never thought of before - that cleaning is sort of a… talent, for lack of a better word. I guess I feel like there’s this expectation for everyone, especially women, to be super clean. But I’ve never been that person. I think I can do a little better but yeah I’m never gonna have knack for it per se.
