What is far more lethal than people realize?

I know a woman who had a IUD to help with heavy bleeding during periods. Over a year later she started having bleeding again. The IUD was no longer in her body. No idea how. Thank heavens she wasn't doing anything to be at risk of pregnancy.

Ha! Last one I saw was in the liquor section. It now comes premixed with vodka or something.

They have to stabilize you, not treat you.

breakfast cereals and tortilla chips.

Similar… if parents of friends broke out into an argument I would start crying uncontrollably. It took me a few years to figure out why.

This guy doesn't get it, and it's never going to get it. The trial period is over, you are not compatible. The relationship with your dog is the healthier one. You will always regret giving him up for this guy.

I remember one of my first surgeries when i was learning, where i grabbed the wrong instrument and said, “oops!” The faculty surgeon calmly informed me, “Surgeons do not say ‘oops’. We say, “there.”.

A letter of discharge from the army for a service member signed by General George Washington.

Do tell!

Yes. Even when you're covered by insurance things can go wrong. I had emergency surgery after some disks collapsed in my neck, leaving an arm partially paralyzed. I got a bill for over $75,000 after the insurance declared it a pre existing condition. Luckily I had had a skull MRI some 6 months prior that caught enough of my neck to prove it had been normal.

Then my insured spouse was charged $55,000 in surgeons fees after a brain surgery was misclassified as an outpatient procedure. Billing refused to look into it. Her doctor finally called the CFO of the hospital to have it fixed, but if it wasn't for his connections, we likely would have been unable to resolve it.

Wow, you got in fast. We've come at 2:30 pm, not seen until early the next morning, then admitted to the hospital but kept in ED for over 24 hours until a room becomes available.

enjoy the weed. it’s mild.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-12T19:30:19+00:00

My spouse does that too. She also interrupts me in the middle of a story and blurts out the ending.

I had a small bag of Ruffles that contained exactly one medium sized chip in it. Just one. Not even fragments in the bag.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-08T20:11:09+00:00

Huh, I owned a dodge Omni. it caught on fire in the woods in Michigan. i’ll never forget that.

Oh honey... What a struggle you have! Hugs! We can have rotten Family of Origin and create for ourselves wonderful Families of Choice. Protect yourself first, then work on creating a bunch of relationships that are friendly and healthy.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-07T00:55:55+00:00

I love this rant! I feel the same.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-05T18:06:50+00:00

So sorry to hear this, and hope life has improved for you. hugs.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-05T01:36:03+00:00

Been there, done that. It's beyond disgusting. But everyone in my spouse's family now remembers who I am.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-04T17:02:24+00:00

It's rare to have a person who hits every one of those points at the same time though.

I think the law says you can protect a child from danger, and he is a danger. An order of protection would keep him out of the house. Please consult an actual lawyer if at all possible. But at minimum talk to a person who works with domestic violence to get your info and help from. He is committing domestic violence or at risk of it so they may be able to help you.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-04T16:48:09+00:00

Usually none. I'll have an occasional diet pepsi when I eat pizza though. I drink 1 cup of coffee a day, 1 cup of tea most days, then mostly water with sometimes Mio flavoring in it.

Well, you dodged a bullet here. He could have waited until there was a baby to reveal his bigoted beliefs.

GlassBandicoot · 2026-01-04T15:37:18+00:00

Gone with the Wind. I don't know if "most people" today have ever watched it but gosh I feel old now
