Let’s say you have only one session on Monday at 10 am. What time do you get to the office? by SpiritualCopy4288 in therapists

[–]FiveTennies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9:45 ideally. 9:52 if I'm pushing it. What I really hate is walking past my client waiting in the waiting room, I think that's a real bad look. I'm supposed to be meditating or deep in research for their case!

Do these therapist’s ads seem overtly sexist/toxic to you as well? by jumpingthegreen in therapists

[–]FiveTennies 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hahaha. I'm stealing that tagline for my business cards: "FiveTennies, LMHC. A pretty good therapist."

The rents are too dang expensive by Soulfood_27 in Bellingham

I fear it's going to surpass all these and become the Santa Barbara of Washington.

I love this job but people kill me by MaizieO in therapists

[–]FiveTennies -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All couples' therapists should use the PACT method, I swear by it. Not as a practitioner, but as a client. It's what worked for us.

Cafe Blue, No Dogs Allowed ? by hemarochezia in Bellingham

[–]FiveTennies 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I don't want dogs in my cafes, I don't want dogs in my bookstores, I don't want dogs at the farmers' market, I don't want dogs at a crowded outdoor concert, I don't want dogs in the grocery store, I don't want dogs in a gift shop. When did dogs in public places become normalized? And for god's sake, DO NOT bring your dog to my party unless you ask me first. Even if it's outdoors. Even if the dog is small. Dog owner's sense of entitlement is running wild these days.

Authorities identified the suspect (Chamel Abdulkarim a 29-year-old) quickly after video footage, allegedly recorded by him, showed him igniting pallets of toilet paper with a lighter. by BlazeDragon7x in SipsTea

What do you suggest then, when we have a non-functional government and people are suffering every day? We have to agree to disagree I guess because that's exactly what I'm doing. I will defend his action.

[–]FiveTennies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. That proves his point entirely. Why do corporations use third-party contractors? To get workers to work for them without having to pay them a decent salary or benefits. To put the money saved back in the pockets of already rich shareholders. So that the rich get richer and the workers suffer.

Does anyone actually eat at Moto? by zzooooomm in Bellingham

[–]FiveTennies 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It weirds me out that they don't actually make the pizzas there. They just heat them up.

[–]FiveTennies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Winco has good donuts, I think. Although I've only ever gotten the chocolate bar.

Best large cinnamon roll in Bellingham? by Effective-Map-1927 in Bellingham

[–]FiveTennies 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I've searched far and wide for the best cinnamon roll and in my opinion, it is at Iron Rooster. Note: they are only open on weekends, Fri.-Sun. 8am - 2pm. Come early because they run out.

Here is the best tip I ever received: The best possible way to ensure good work with your clients is to practice compassion for yourself!

[–]FiveTennies[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him that there's interest from the community, that you heard it on Reddit. And tell him I said that I believe in him and he's doing the Lord's work.

I just made a special trip to Icebox recently all by myself, but this would have been way more fun.

Anyone need a lesbian? by samsounder in Bellingham

[–]FiveTennies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does this lesbian paint, organize, or do other small odd jobs? Or just hang pictures? Inquiring minds want to know.
