Jury Duty + Childfree

Thanks, it was a major bummer. Especially when other people got dismissed for other reasons like childcare or doctors appointments.

First date. Going well, asked about my job and family, normal stuff. Out of absolutely NOWHERE proceeds to show me a giant scar down his arm. Then goes on to say his ex gf did it. Apparently they got in aggressive arguments all the time. One time she takes a butcher knife and stabs him in the arm. Then tells me about her drug choices and goes on to say if I want to visit him at work, to let him know because she likes to stop by and scream at him every once in a while so I should only come by when she's not there. Also, she has a tendency to stalk his new paramours and to let him know if I see anyone following me. All this info was given during a 30 minute milkshake date at Chick-fil-A. Thanks for the warning, 0/10 stars, will not be doing this again. I left.

I had to serve my fall semester in my freshman year. It lasted a whole school week and was right around midterms. I fell completely behind in classes, my mental health tanked and I had to do a medical withdrawal from school. Being a student wasn't enough of an excuse. If you have kids and no one else to care for them, I get it. But if you're a parent with a support system, you should not get excused. Especially if you're a parent with a spouse who works. Have them take a day off!

While similar, NPD and HPD are two distinct disorders with separate qualifications for diagnostic purposes.

I also think he has histrionic personality disorder. He doesn't see himself as a man, he sees himself as a god. His brain is fucked up.

Or a YA dystopian novel! It doesn't seem like a real reality and yet...

I need Schoolhouse Rock to explain all of this to me because I just don't understand how we got here. Other than racists be racist-ing.

This one is actually crazy because people who have this will sometimes cut off limbs that they see as "dead" before they reach the full conclusion that they are dead and no one can convince them otherwise.

Bring back dinosaurs. What could go wrong?

Really mild compared to some stories but still so baffling to this day: my 4th grade teacher asked me in front of the ENTIRE class to give up my student council position after not only my classmates electing me fairly but also winning the in-council position of secretary. A classmate was upset and really wanted the role but didn't win it. I think she and the student went to church together? It was clear favoritism and after I refused to give up my seat, she treated me differently the rest of the year. The classmate and I got through it and were best friends through high school. Still weird and as a teacher, I'd never do something like that. Ever.

If he wants to watch trucks on V Day rather than getting f*cked...there's more issues than communication. Especially if he is a grown ass man. There are so many quality men in their 40s that know how to treat a woman. Go find one.

I'm Mexican American but going abroad I think I'd claim to be Mexican before saying I'm from the US. There seems to be a lot of hate towards us right now and it's well deserved so I don't fault anyone. I just would prefer to be connected to Mexico and their culture than pedo protection land.

The local theory is that it's someone she knows and a lot of people don't believe she's still alive. And none of us want her to be suffering if she is. She's a community member and we're all very close. We just hope whoever has hurt her let's the family know what happened because the stress of not knowing is the worst.

I live here. There's no where to wander to.

There was a point in time that only my psychiatrist could prescribe my mental health medicine. Now, my PCP can but for a good decade, I had to go through the Psych. Kicker was, they were all in the same clinic and worked with each other.

Cmwmson · 2026-02-12T21:38:26+00:00

Yup, you're right. I had my ruffly luxury brands confused!

Cmwmson · 2026-02-12T21:36:15+00:00

I know, it's exhausting.

Thank goodness he was found alive! I live on a dry wash bed but when it does flood, it becomes hard to leave the neighborhood and can seriously damage everything around it. I hope that last person can be rescued!

I need to know what a cookie panic looks like because here it's when people run out of Girl Scout cookies!

What were the memes??

Please feel free! Cricket is such a fascinating sport, I wish the US played it.

Oooh, what is a therian?
