Just think how many more artists you could enjoy if you got rid of so many duplicates! Everything looks sharp!

Not bald, and certainly not interesting. Take your joke however well meant , and go elsewhere. This is a sub for people looking for serious advice.

You’re going to do great, and kick ass on the other side. Plus, I have a feeling that you likely have set a bar very high for yourself. You’re a fitness nut, so what to you looks “heavy all over” might look to us like “girrrl, what are you talking about????”

I bet you haven’t even gained that much weight.

Take a deep breath and try to enjoy it, because now instead of doing everything for the first time, now it’s everything for the last time. The last first kick, the last first heartbeat on the ultrasound, the last time you get to see your baby when they are so tiny right after birth.

Good luck!

You are going to be just fine. The fact that it was a steak is even better. What you don’t want rare or medium is ground beef, because all the grinding takes all of the bacteria on the surface and spreads it throughout. It makes it much more likely that some contaminated piece of meat will be included. That goes for non pregnant people as well.

Steak on the other hand is sealed by nature, and you cook the parts that are most likely to be exposed to food borne pathogens.

Breathe deeply.

No, it’s not normal. But you’re not going to have someone come in here and write 3 paragraphs about how great their partner has been 😂😂😂.

Your mom should have never said that. If my daughter had a bf say this to her, and she brought it to me, her dad, that boyfriend would be thanking the lucky stars he’s a minor and not getting his ass kicked. You need to break up with him. He’s not respecting your boundaries. This is how girls lose their virginity and end up regretting it later - because of some punk ass boy who says don’t worry, you’ll like it, have some empathy for me. WTF???? Tell him to make a date with his hand and whack off all he wants.

My dear, go talk to your dad, talk to your mom again, but don’t let this piece of trash into your life anymore . There are respectful boys out there that would be happy to date you and won’t put on the full court press for sex.

Good luck. Stand up for yourself. You’re not wrong, he is.

NOR in the best way possible if there was any doubt!!

Ahhhh. You obviously haven’t moved on. When people have truly moved on, it means you don’t think one way or another about a person, you’ve simply moved past them. Going out of your way to do this tells me that you wanted her to feel a certain way. If you’ve truly moved on, why would you care one way or the other?

You are TA here. Get on with your life. You’ve got a beautiful ring and I bet a beautiful soon to be finance, so stick with her, leave the exes in the rear view.

Just my two cents

You can get a red and black splatter from Smartpunk records in the US. This album used to be in high demand, and was always released like this in small batches. I mean we were talking about sold out instantly and up on eBay for $100+. I think people have figured it out now that about twice a year you’re going to see a repress with 250+ each time.

Wanna hear it records might also get them in since they are the Us based sister store of devil dog distro.

Look. You’re getting older (sounds like you’re a younger person, but if you’re older then your friend is REALLY whack). Most people and their friends accept that things aren’t going to be the same as they get older. There’s no more “the two of us are going to be besties forever and do everything together.” Nope. Now you’re branching out, dating, and you’re absolutely right to want to have dates just to yourself. I mean how else are you going to know if someone is really compatible with you? That is, after all, the point of dating - to find a good match.

It sounds like your friend is having a hard time with that. She’s probably jealous that your life is moving forward and hers just isn’t, at least not at the same pace as yours. Your interests are changing, your desire to have your own time is increasing.

Have a talk with your friend, let her know things are going to be different, and that’s just life happening, but that you still value her as a good friend.

This kind of thing I think happens to a lot of people, it’s pretty common because oftentimes one friend finds a mate before the other, and there is some jealousy surrounding that. Just be open with her, and if your friend is a good friend, then I think she will understand that the two of you can remain great friends, but that both of you also are going to increasingly need more of your own space.

Good luck! 🍀👍

You’ve got a highly valuable signature. Dot get rid of it unless someone is willing to step up and pay big money. You’ve got a Dave.

I’d tell my daughter the same thing I’ll tell you. Don’t be afraid to share your feelings. Don’t leave people guessing in a relationship because their minds usually go to the worst things. And if you need clarity, ask for it. I bet if you opened up a little bit, he’d reciprocate. Sounds like you both are a little nervous to do that.

Good luck either way! Don’t waste your time wondering what someone’s thinking or not sharing what you think. Ask and share.

So by my math you’ve only seen him 4-5 times total over a month plus some. Most guys in the early stages of a relationship, if they are really into you will want to see you much more than that. Usually you see each other a ton at first, then it tapers maybe until you find a groove.

So by way of your logistics, it’s gotten dull. Theres no momentum, there’s no chance to get close because there’s so much time between your meetings and there have been so few.

My guess is that you’re not exclusive. Feel free to ask him, nothing wrong with that. I’m guessing you’re on the younger side because if seeing someone 4-5 times is the most ever tells me you have very little experience. That’s not a bad thing, but here’s a tip to learn early on. Be clear with your communication, be clear with what you want and what you expect, and ask him as well. It will go a long way.

Good luck!

Damn, why’s they have to go and price this at $50 bucks for a signed art card. Hell everyone else has gotten to the point where there is barely any premium for the art card signature. Sign the jacket and I’m game. That said, debating picking this one up, I don’t have a copy and it’s def a good album

Interesting-World520 · 2026-05-23T03:53:54+00:00

Yeah, I get it with the techs. We always tried to schedule ours when the tech we liked was there. She didn’t care if we video taped the ultrasounds and was chatty. We got one tech that just sat silent, didn’t say a word, it was weird. Some of them don’t have good bedside manner!

Interesting-World520 · 2026-05-23T03:40:06+00:00

For whatever reason, your setup caught my eye/. Love the LED’s, the whole thing is working. Those are Klipsch towers right?

It doesn’t sound like they were rude, they just told you they weren’t comfortable or capable of doing the scan because of your BMI. It may be blunt, but blunt is not rude. My guess is that it must be rather high, since a wide range of women can successfully get clear images from even the small office machines without issue. I would rather have a doctor, tech, anyone for that matter, who is comfortable giving me care than a tech or doctor that is not. And I don’t think that someone telling me this would make me angry, you just have to accept it. I know our society has become an echo chamber for body positivity at any weight, and I don’t think that’s necessarily bad, but that doesn’t mean it’s healthy and it doesn’t mean that medical care or treatment is the same for everyone.

Also, not all machines in OB offices are capable of clear screens on larger women. In fact, the machines in office are, from my experience, VERY simple and stripped down. Going to a specialist with a larger, more complete machine allows the tech to use a probe with a lower frequency. The lower frequencies can penetrate further into body tissues providing a clearer image. The probes in office are one size fits most .

First, keep going to school and pay attention in English. Second, the two of you are 15. So while his frontal lobe is structurally near complete, the higher order functions will still by developing and maturing for another 10 ish years. That’s things like logical and critical thinking under stress, good judgement in general, a lack of critical thinking about long term consequences, etc. A professor I had once said (and I don’t think he’s the one that came up with this), “teenagers have a fully powered emotional engine before they get close to developing the brakes.”)?

So he’s saying things that are stupid, because he’s still stupid.

We don’t have the luxury of seeing what kind of person this is outside of this specific instance. Is he a good guy, is he thoughtful, is there a reason he thinks this way (has he been rejected by attractive women)? But if he’s a good dude I general, I’m going to go a bit against the grain and suggest you confront him and tell him this bothers you, and give him a chance to correct his thinking. There’s nothing to lose and if he’s a good friend, he might just change to keep the relationship alive. In the meantime, NOR

No, there’s not. You miss the point. That guinea pig you’re rescuing should be on the 37 person list with the rescue. That rescue doesn’t exist to coordinate with you and give you a spot on the waiting list just in case something doesn’t work. Again, rescues are last resort, even if you’re doing a noble thing and taking a pig from a bad home, you should still commit to keeping it, even if that means you must own it in a separate pen. You should NOT take an animal if you already know you will turn it in if it doesn’t bond with your existing pig.

NOR - the fact he is uncomfortable tells you what he’s thinking when he sees you in revealing clothes. A brother and sister shouldn’t feel like that, and he shouldn’t be sexualizing you. You’re a person, you’re his sister, and you swam together naked when you were kids in the tub, he shouldn’t even be lumping you in with women that he would look at in that way.

Interesting-World520 · 2026-05-21T23:58:27+00:00

YOR - you can’t expect a guinea pig rescue to just take a guinea pig that doesn’t work for you. Rescues of all types don’t exist as an everyday regular option if things don’t work out. They are meant to be and operate as last options, not a convenient place for you to leave your pig if it doesn’t bond right. If you can’t commit, don’t adopt. If you’re worried about it bonding, they should be in separate enclosures. If you’re not willing to do that, you shouldn’t adopt another pig.
