Here’s an article I like: On Hating Men (And Becoming One Anyway)

My two cents is that I have ADHD and I have no idea why I’m apparently supposed to be stressed out by Halloween costumes. I love halloween

I tried googling this and wasn’t able to find the bit you’re referring to

This couple met in college. Idk what he sees in her

My partner has a friend whose wife my partner and I both dislike! I refuse to do double dates because I know I’m not going to have a good time.

She’s just such a lib - rich upbringing, distaste for unions, refusal to consider the possibility that things could get better through collective action. She has kind of a mean, spiteful sense of humor. She’s inconsiderate towards anyone she doesn’t like much (including my partner and I).

She’s also homophobic/transphobic, even though she doesn’t think she is! She makes snide comments about her husband’s masculinity when he does anything that doesn’t read cishet to her. She even did it once with my partner! It was so pathetic! My partner and I aren’t insecure about his masculinity, so it was really funny to us and we still joke about it to this day.

It’s not gambling!

I guess it’s kinda addictive, but only because it’s really good. It doesn’t feel like it was cynically designed to be addictive, if that makes sense. No ads or microtransactions!

Room temperature is the temperature range that my medications say they should be stored at. I know it’s written down in the little booklets that come with them but I’m not gonna go find them rn

I keep the temp at 69F in winter and 76F in summer

Yes it gets better by the end of chapter 1

Tenna emotes when

Mother, said a small tomato caterpillar to a wasp,
why are you kissing me so hard on my back?
You’ll see, said the industrious wasp, deftly inserting
a package of her eggs under the small caterpillar’s skin.
Every day the small caterpillar ate and ate the delicious
tomato leaves. I am surely getting larger, it said to itself.
This was a sad miscalculation. The ravenous hatched
wasp worms were getting larger. O world, the small
caterpillar said, you were so beautiful. I am only a small
tomato caterpillar, made to eat the good tomato leaves.
Now I am so tired. And I am getting even smaller. Nature
smiled. Never mind, dear, she said. You are a lovely link
in the great chain of being. Think how lucky it is to be born.

Oh hey I saw something about this recently. I read the medicine subreddit cuz I’m a weirdo. Dunno if this will be helpful, but here’s what I saw one doctor type person post:

Have them toss out half a bottle of afrin and mix with saline, use that for a week, then toss out half again and dilute again with saline, use for a week, continue diluting until they feel ready to go off. Sometimes a short oral pred burst is needed too unfortunately

I actually love that episode of TAS though

I also suggest adding ice to your water/whatever you’re drinking (if you haven’t already)

It’s good to be averse to cruelty, yeah. Don’t let anyone tell you that you should try to lose that part of yourself.

When I think of what I want to happen to people who have done terrible things, I think the most satisfying thing to imagine is a future in which they are denied ever having any power over others. Not a future in which they’re tortured or suffering or anything like that.
