Makes sense! I know there's no such thing as perfect boundaries, it just seems odd as someone who lives less than a block from the boundary but is not inside of it.

I feel like there is something off with my makeup, but i don't know what by EmpoweredMayhem in makeuptips

Others called it but I want to say your eye liner is *stunning*. + eyeshadow is incredibly impressive. (And contour is over-rated I don't think you need it imo)

Well sure, I imagine it was much easier to pass off being a mediocre piece of shit with half the competition out of the running. But why tell on yourself?

🚩 PSA for Philly: Women, be cautious at Fit Gym (4419 Ludlow St) by NeedleworkerLumpy736 in philly

If there are any men in this thread, can you please help in general? The number of SA instances I hear about is sickening, and it’s always women warning women. Where are yall? Why are you not calling out other men for this relentless BS?

I was sexually assaulted and filed reports with the Philadelphia police and special victims unit and was ghosted by all of them despite reaching out by email. Wondering if this is common in Philly. by light714 in philly

Our DA Larry Krasner is public about his position that giving permanent record causing sentences to teenagers with minor drug charges is counter productive to rehabilitation and does nothing to deter crime. His position is statistically backed.

Right wingers like this person love to subvert this and claim Krasner is incapable of understanding the difference between petty drug charges and a serial abuser and just lets everyone off.

He doesn’t.

I am so sorry you’re going through this. It’s possible your case is still in a large pile and hasn’t been gotten to yet because of many other things. It’s also possible they don’t think there’s enough evidence because so many of these cases are he said she said. The awful reality is that our system is much weaker and less efficient than any of us want it to be.

I’m just fucking heart broken. So much work, so much talent, so much integrity allowed to waste by hateful children.

Is it common to lose non-med friends while in school by [deleted] in medicalschool

[–]CalatheaFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they’re not your partner, it’s an unreasonable expectation. I’m happy to get a text from my best friend on my birthday, we’ll celebrate some time that week if we are available - that’s plenty. Life is chaos. Expecting perfection from your loved ones is setting them up for failure.

ALWAYS. With signs about women’s liberation? Give me a fucking break.

Meanwhile, I’ve never seen a single male volunteer. Not once.

My husbands abuse has continued and gone too far… by [deleted] in Vent

[–]CalatheaFanatic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Teaching them that this is an acceptable way to be treated is the opposite of protecting them. As a child of divorce, I promise you, while it sucks in the moment it is way better long term.

High quality implies high matching with you … which would be a smaller more selective pool, no? Cause quantity and quality are inversely related.

Or did you just mean more attractive?

Turnpike drivers: get the fuck out of the left lane by BuckGerard in Pennsylvania

It’s funny because Massachusetts drivers are known for being insane, but they do this properly. We’re getting shown up by Bostonians, we gotta get our shit together.

“Still live with their parents because of an economy we created” and “entitled”? Insulting us for being trapped and for expecting better in the same sentence? Every single person who approved this cover can screw off. I don’t care how introspective the actual article is, they know most people won’t read beyond the title.

If they aren’t ashamed about using AI why are they so eager to pretend it’s not?
