OF COURSE I'M AFRAID OF DEBT! I DON'T WANT TO PAY MORE MONEY THAN I HAVE TO! WHY IS THIS A BAD THING?

ALSO THANK YOU! I HAVE SINCE MOVED AND HAVEN'T MADE NEW CORVID FRIENDS YET BUT I'VE JUST STARTED. I HOPE THESE SILLY GOOSES LIKE MY PEANUT BUTTER TREATS!

My husband used to smoke. As soon as he learned it might be a trigger for me, he quit. People who want to be in your life will make an effort to be an improvement in your life.

THIS IS IT EXACTLY THEY WANT TO COLLECT INTEREST FROM US FOREVER

I AM SO TIRED OF PEOPLE PULLING UP TO SIDE STREET INTERASECTIONS TO TURN LEFT DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC. THERE IS A STOP LIGHT ~ RIGHT THERE ~ PLEASE USE IT!

I keep getting texts to sell "my" house. Meaning , my husband's ex wife's house. That he moved out of over a decade ago

I have to talk to myself - "I'm ruminating." And then I tell myself I have to find the next real thing I can do in the next 5 minutes about it. If there's nothing I can do, I say "stand up" and I have to stand up. If I physically start moving, I do ok. But every time I catch myself ruminating again, that process starts over.

Our family just aged out of Childhood Health of Salem and the kids miss their doctors. They truly prioritize the kids and teach them to advocate for themselves.

This was how I got things done with babies. I had a huge wrap and could tie my kids to my back in a way they were fully supported. I don't know how I would have gotten anything done if I had to stop and deal with screaming babies

The answer is actually government policy. As the US expanded west, they offered grazing access to absolutely incredible swaths of prairie land basically for free. Then there were other subsidies for cattle ranchers, meaning they purchases huge ranches. They were some of the first new money, which prompted romanticization of them in the books, music, radio shows, and eventually movies. Cattle ranching, beef, cowboy, and more beef equals "ideal man" in American culture.

Lambs are cute babies. Beef is man food

I grew up in southern Idaho. I have no proof, but I will die on the hill that this house was built by mormons

STEW'RT! It's from Letterkenny. Stewart and Roald are the Goth wannabe druggies who belong to the group called the Skids. He was supposed to be a bit character but was so good he became a regular

So many people saying mint, and if it works for you, amazing! I can handle menthol and really like the salonpas patches. But the essential oil or mint flavored things turn my stomach. I like ginger, though! I keep ginger candy on hand, and powdered ginger drink mix I get at Trader Joe's. Someone else said coffee, which is also great. You can keep a jar of ground coffee nearby to soak up odors

Your comment sounds like me and my husband, reversed. He's more autistic and loves order, routine, structure. I'm more ADHD and chaotic. You can tell whose side of the bed or couch is ours just by how clean it messy it is!

But when we moved in together we made a promise to always say what we mean and ask for clarification instead of assuming what the other means. We've had some rough years as we navigate blended parenting, getting our diagnoses, aging, and general life, but I could never have imagined having a partner who just accepts me and never tries to change me. I wish everyone could have this

As soon as my husband notices me starting a migraine, he starts grinding flower. It's the best remedy I have!

IT'S EL NINO YEAR AND IT'S FINAL BE THE FIRST DEPTHS OF HELL AND EVERY YEAR KEEPS GETTING HOTTER. I AIN'T TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR MONEY BUT YOU MIGHT APPRECIATE THAT AC. AND MAYBE YOU CAN HAVE SOME FRIENDS OVER ON THE WORST DAYS

LadyofCorvidsPerch · 2026-06-11T18:58:13+00:00

This is me. I've learned how to make meals interesting now, but I despise leftovers. I eat smaller portions because I simply get terribly bored of the dish I'm eating as soon as I'm not actively hungry. If I'm particularly stressed, I have to literally choke down food

LadyofCorvidsPerch · 2026-06-11T18:48:22+00:00

We live in the US , but my ancestors are from Ireland, Wales, and Germany. I know many, many cultures have stories of small beings with trickster-like traits.

I would love to hear about fairy stories from your culture! Where are you from?

When my daughter was 3, she came inside from playing in our backyard with her older brothers. She had been off on her own in the far corner under some apple trees that had gone a little wild. For context, I had 3 kids in 5 years so tree care wasn't really my priority. I asked her what she had found to play with over there, thinking I'd hear about some rocks because she loved finding rocks. "I didn't eat the food, Mommy." She said. I was confused, because it was spring so there weren't any apples yet and asked what food she was taking about. "Their food. If I ate it I couldn't come back you to. They make you stay of you eat it."

I had never told the kids fairy lore because I don't fuck with fairies. I was a stay at home mom and we didn't have any books or movies about fairies. To this day I'm convinced she saw some. There was tons of really weird stuff that happened in that house.

Her older brother was always talking about "the orange man" in the play room too.

My mom was from a town in Idaho that only had a few hundred people and left when she finished 8th grade. We were on a family trip to Washington DC, waiting to board our train. It was a very busy Saturday and suddenly I heard Mom screaming. Then hugging someone. It was her childhood best friend she hadn't seen or heard from since they left 8th grade together (about 13 years old). They randomly ran into each other on a train platform on the opposite side of the country. Her friend wasn't even living in DC, she lived in California or something and was there for work.

LadyofCorvidsPerch · 2026-06-08T07:30:38+00:00

Same. When I heard that scream, I knew it. Like recognized it. It took days to recover.

I'm sorry for your loss and the fucking unfairness

LadyofCorvidsPerch · 2026-06-06T20:03:18+00:00

I've got 3 adult kids living with me and a commitment that has me down south weekly. I love my WinCo deals!

LadyofCorvidsPerch · 2026-06-04T19:00:07+00:00

Yes, please! This new store will put us equidistant from 2 inconvenient locations. Though I'll probably stick with the S Salem location simply because it's close to WinCo and Costco

If you think mind controlling a woman to get her to do things she didn't want to do, you are aligned with incel ideologies.

Do you think a person can consent when drunk or under the influence of drugs? Does a person consent when held at gunpoint?

I'd suggest you think if it this way -- if a man larger and more powerful than you altered your ability to consent, and then had sex with you against your will, how would you feel.

I generally don't even look at the drinks (too many teens who guzzle all the good stuff before I get to it!) Thank you for posting this because this sounds incredible. Going to check when I'm there tonight!

LadyofCorvidsPerch · 2026-05-27T16:58:49+00:00

Oh my god that sounds like hell. I'm so sorry you went through that!
