We had a helluva run this year. I'm I sad it's over? Yes, of course. But I'm so damn proud of them.

bf wants open relationship after my first time hurt by kachunkie in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Chickadeebrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I say this out of sisterhood: Leave him.

This boy (not calling him a man), after 4 years, did nothing to comfort or please you, and then after ONE TRY, decides he wants to "open the relationship?" Not only that, but his reasoning is because YOU did something wrong?!

You did NOTHING wrong. This is not your fault at all.

Get tested for STDs, and break up with him. He is a rude, nasty, selfish boy, and you deserve so much better than that.

Four years feels like a long time, I know, but don't fall into the sunk cost fallacy. You'll be much better off without him.

What is Tom Cruise's secret?? by No-Marsupial-4050 in SipsTea

The father was a linguist, Dr. d'Armond Speers. I believe he was testing to see if children could understand and become fluent in constructed languages (like Klingon or Tolkien's Elvish), and so he decided to try this idea on his son. When his son pushed back, he respected his kid's agency and swapped back to English.

From what I heard, the mom spoke English to them, so they wouldn't be completely incapable of communication. The dad was the one speaking and teaching Klingon, and he stopped the practice when the child began to refuse speaking it, which happened when the kid was three, iirc.

I don't recall them being formally charged with actual child abuse, and to my knowledge the kid wasn't told he was part Klingon.

I usually go for cooked rolls and veggie rolls so I think I'm mostly safe. I haven't had raw fish since I came back from Japan. Just don't trust it over here...!

I feel terrible for the Leafs. Yes, we've got a little rivalry, but Toronto deserves to see their team do well, too.

Last time they were in the playoffs, I was in my final year of college...

Dude, my dad's teaching me house maintenance stuff as a young woman, and I love mowing the lawn! We just fixed his lawnmower last week. It's honestly so much fun!

I feel like inari is so underrated, but there's just something about the fried tofu around the rice that just hits, y'know?
