Dude no. You have to actually wash them, what’s the matter with you?

My husband will love this, thanks for sharing :)

He’s a 7 on the Bristol scale.

Holy crap you made Winn even more evil, I thought that was actually impossible

I’ve found more belligerent comments have started to crop up, and sure enough, most of the time the account is about 2 weeks old. I really hope lemmy doesn’t change with this latest influx from reddit.

Genius.

Tide comes in, tide goes out. You can’t explain it!

I mean, I’m a pretty terrible driver but it’s not like my uterus is doing the steering!

A set of steps leading down to a…

When your empathy extends to people you don’t even like.

They clearly have a negative stereotype of women in their minds, and that’s the lens through which they judge the behavior of all women. So if a woman forgets something, it’s because “women are airheads”. If a woman is upset about something, it’s because “women can’t control their emotions”. And if a woman is good with kids, it’s because “women like children, that’s just natural”.

And when a woman behaves counter to his preconceived ideas, she’s a bitch.

You wanna know something wild? I just saw a GI today for an IBS flareup that’s been going on since September, and I mentioned I thought it might be peri-related, and told her about a few more of my non-GI symptoms. I kid you not, she said “it sounds like you’ve got low estrogen, you should ask your GYN about bioidentical estrogen.” So the two of you convinced me to make an appointment with a new GYN and start that conversation! Thank you! :)

I asked my GYN and she said there’s nothing she can do for me right now because the go-to treatment approach is to prescribe a low-dose birth control, which I’m already on. I asked her if we could have my hormone levels measured and she said we could but that the test wouldn’t be informative because I’m on the pill. I need to find a new GYN since I’ve just moved, so maybe the next one will be more helpful!

Yes, your gut instinct is so important! It doesn’t matter if you know exactly why you feel the need to get out. Your subconscious knows something’s off, and that’s enough. Just get out!

Be kind to yourself, especially when you’re struggling. This one is tough for me because I’m forever calling myself an idiot or lazy when I know I’m neither of those things. But talking down to yourself is harmful and demoralizing*. I’m really trying to practice patience with myself, and to talk to myself as kindly as I would a dear friend. And praise yourself when you do something well!

* Unless I know I’m being genuinely lazy, then a verbal kick in the pants can help ;)

She would be absolutely stunned. Probably wouldn’t believe me. At 43 I’m married to the guy I was dating at 19. At 19 I had dropped out of college and thought I wanted to be an artist; at 43 I’m already retired from a successful career in academic research. At 19 I had no thoughts about politics or the world as a whole (9/11 hadn’t happened yet); at 43 I’m pretty informed and opinionated. And she’d probably be surprised how much I’m into the outdoors, healthy living, and weightlifting, given that she had negative interest in those things. The rest is pretty consistent - e.g., I’ve always loved music from the '60s, fun nail polish, scifi, swimming, and handmade art (drawing, beading, etc).

I mean, starving them would be a pretty bad look.

As a kid I made a PB, banana, mayo, and potato chip sandwich pretty often. I fucking loved it. As an adult I’d never eat that, but occasionally I crave it.
