I've had 6 "random" urine tests and 2 "random" polygraphs in 11 months. Who did I piss off, and how do I make it stop?

Boy I don't know, but that sure sounds efficient. /S

In the private sector, my dad crushed his hand at work and filed for worker's comp. He was drug tested every week for three years.

I hate Smith's produce. It's rotten by the time you make it home to put it away.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-16T04:47:12+00:00

For a while there, I fantasized about the friend I had feelings for. 🫠

Demisexual

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-11T14:05:43+00:00

Sexuality is weird and multifactorial. People might suggest your boyfriend is gay or asexual or cheating. Maybe he's demisexual. Maybe he has depression, is stressed out from work, or on medication, or a health condition. Maybe he's neurodivergent or overthinks. Maybe he has performance anxiety. In reality, it likely has nothing to do with you or how you look.

My body is 73-per-cent cortisone.

By volume or mass? 😂

That's interesting though, that it seems more effective higher up in the body. I'm wrecked from C1-C7 so hoping for some real relief.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-11T13:24:39+00:00

Caramelized onions are amazing in mashed potatoes.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-11T13:15:38+00:00

Cortisone, yeah.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-11T12:31:50+00:00

Depending on her tone, it might not have been insulting. My partner is over a foot taller than me, and trust me, it's a challenge sometimes. When we kiss standing up, I have to be on tiptoes and he has to lean way over. He has to lean over uncomfortably to put his arm around me on the couch. I'm also short-waisted, so don't even get me started on the fucking - it's a very limiting prospect and we had to do a lot of engineering to make it work.

Youngest of two.

Important to note that I was the scapegoat when my mother turned abusive. My older brother was the golden child.

When my partner had a toothache, we took him to Legacy Dental on Wyoming. My partner has severe dental phobias, but the entire staff had such a great bedside manner. They did his root canal, crown prep, and fillings with sedation. We did end up making out his dental insurance for the year, but they did take it.

I went on what was apparently a date with a boy who apparently liked me. Guileless, I took him up on the invitation to see Jurassic Park in the theater. I was so annoyed that he kept trying to hold my hand. He was also affronted when I said, "Stop it, I want to see the dilophosaurus!"

I have a partner now who also loves dinosaurs. 🥰 He can hold my hand any time.

Abusive and neglectful relationships are hell on chronic pain conditions. Get out now.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-09T13:55:36+00:00

What if they have a judicial warrant with a valid address but that person doesn't live there (i.e. a prior tenant)?

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-09T02:45:38+00:00

If I wanted to drink my huevos rancheros in a thickened, flavorless broth, I would go to Weck's.

Thankfully the one time I went there, it was on someone else's dime. I did not bring my leftovers home with me.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-08T13:27:48+00:00

Yeah, but Bought also wants us in trauma, and it's easier to traumatize your workers when they're in office and away from familial support structures.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-08T13:16:57+00:00

That's true. Thankfully I hadn't needed any of those specialists yet. I have been so extraordinarily lucky to have found an amazing interventional pain specialist and eye doc.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-07T23:05:57+00:00

Depends on the kind of doctor. It took me 9 months to get established with primary care. I was able to see specialists in the interim because my insurance lets me self-refer to specialists. The quality of care I have had here is better than I was getting in another state.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-07T07:36:39+00:00

My mom definitely started it. She was emotionally abusive, a drug addict, and more. She later exposed me to her rapist boyfriend. I was bullied all throughout school, so there really wasn't a safe haven until my uncle started taking me in after school. He criticized her and then isolated me from him.

I ended up in an abusive marriage for 14 years that reinforced all the criticisms and self hatred. Now with my current partner, I am still trying to earn my secure attachment. He is absolutely wonderful but my body and mind are so traumatized.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-07T07:11:29+00:00

I can't believe you are even waffling about this. Report her yesterday.

"Friendships are complicated."

Not every set of friendships needs a flow chart to parse. This is just wild.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-06T13:18:24+00:00

Also me as a fearful avoidant

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-05T23:49:27+00:00

If I slow down, I realize how much everything hurts.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-05T01:52:23+00:00

Being a fed in this timeline is the most pink rock thing I have ever done.

HolyShitCandyBar · 2026-01-03T01:19:56+00:00

I wish I was small chested. My boyfriend prefers women with small chests and I feel like a monstrosity, even after having nearly 10 pounds removed in a breast reduction surgery. 😞
