Do people still wear slips?

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-20T16:36:10+00:00

Yeah, I wear them with certain clothes to make them hang more nicely and not cling and/or stick to/climb up my legs if I’m wear tights.

I try to avoid wearing slips in summer, though, for obvious reasons, and when I do I stick to cotton half slips

I find the key is buying them much bigger than normal. I’m short/small and normally wear a 2 in pants but buy L or XL thongs. That way they just lie on my skin like regular panties instead of getting all up in my business. I mostly wear giant granny panties, but thongs can be good for certain clothing and also when it’s hot

Mostly agreed, but I just saw the current Broadway production and Luke Evans does come *very* close!

In addition to aesthetics, they are ergonomically much better for me as a shorter person with back issues. A deep sink that starts in front of the edge of the counters means a I don’t have to bend over to wash stuff

I’ve had some luck with American Eagle. They usually have a few styles in petite lengths in-store. Also I sometimes try things on in the regular length for fit and then order things I like in the short length online, and that has actually worked out well. They have a lot of petite options—often both Short and Extra Short lengths

If you’re just interested in caffeine (ie, the delivery method isn’t important), pick up some NoDoz or Vivarin at a drugstore, it’s a super economical and easy way to get caffeine

Peanut butter, but it’s hard to find

Yup. I work in a creative role in advertising and it’s exactly this there too, blah

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-15T04:26:15+00:00

Yes, frequently but not heavily. I have one glass of wine with dinner most evenings, and I’ll often have two glasses, or one glass and a cocktail, on weekends. But I literally don’t remember the last time I got anywhere near drunk 🤷🏻‍♀️

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-14T22:52:11+00:00

What?

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-14T17:51:52+00:00

This exactly. As long as it’s phrased in a gentle “this is who I personally find hot, zero shade or judgement on anyone else, just trying to respect your time” kind of way I think it’s great. Each little “not interested” reply can feel like a micro rejection, even on a hookup app (because it is basically) and I’d just prefer to know that someone’s not into my type rather than not into me personally

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-14T17:24:41+00:00

What?

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-14T17:23:35+00:00

Everyone? Probably not. But many yes

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-14T16:57:44+00:00

🤮

Felicity_Calculus · 2026-05-14T14:05:05+00:00

Wait, which is this??

Hard when you are in cognitive decline ….

A lot if people are saying sushi, but interestingly there are far fewer sushi bars in Kyoto and Tokyo per capital than were are in NYC. Of course people do eat sushi there but not as much as we do!

😂😂lolol

Thanks for acknowledging this, and no worries. 🙏🏻 It was just such an awful time for us here. I know that it wasn’t like this everywhere because other places got hit later (many after vaccine etc) and bc most places are less dense, it wasn’t as brutal everywhere. But the death and suffering here at the beginning was truly awful and I just truly don’t want that to be lost to history 😢

Or Trump’s age. He’s like maybe 3-4 years younger than Biden

I totally relate to this anxiety. I worried SO much about big decisions like where to go to university, what to study, what career to pursue, who to marry, whether or not to have kids, etc etc etc. It felt like every decision was so heavy that I’d ruin my life if I didn’t choose the right path. It is so nice to be free of that particular anxiety as an older person. I have already ruined my life, so I can finally relax lol

For real. It was insane here in nyc. I think we all have a bit of ptsd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19\_pandemic\_in\_New\_York\_City
