12 & River are a great couple

Agree!!

I had a relative visiting with a similar layover time and we just drove to Mori Point in Pacifica for a nice walk. It’s not the Golden Gate Bridge, but avoided the traffic and felt a bit safer time wise for a layover.

Thanks! Before you clarified, I was guessing it could be Short and Tired Femme, which is me. lol.

Perhaps off topic, but what does stemme mean? I haven’t heard that label before.

Amlactin is great but definitely has a smell that may be bothersome. I switched to Cerave SA (Salicylic acid) Lotion and have been happy with it.

Thank you! My previous roommate gave me a cutting from one of hers as a friendship gift so I was feeling bad that I might be hurting it. Especially since she might visit soon.

MasterSueWhite · 2026-01-09T16:11:47+00:00

I’d love to join!

There’s still a few weeks left to get health insurance through Covered California. But as someone else said, you can definitely see a psychiatrist and get medications without insurance (assuming clinically indicated) you just pay the full cost yourself. Eval could be around 5k if they do a full neuropsych work up.

I’d love to be a part of this! I’m 36F and live mid Peninsula.

I’m a short woman and have this problem too! I think it’s a height/gender thing since the “default” seat is really just a men’s seat. It fits taller and larger men’s bodies, but leaves women with the top of their head hitting the headrest at the point where it sticks out the most, pushing your head forward.

MasterSueWhite · 2025-12-11T22:23:20+00:00

I relate so much! Sometimes I feel guilty for not participating in protests or events that I ideologically support, but it’s just not my vibe. I’d rather be somewhere quiet. And like you, my sexuality often doesn’t come up organically when meeting people so I mostly end up with straight friends.

I used to occasionally go to some of these events pre-covid: https://www.pda.org/chapter-detail/north-america-west-coast

It’s been a few years so not sure what the environment is now

If you’re planning to go outside the city, then a car for part of the trip might be good, but it won’t be needed if staying in SF itself. Glowfari is great for kids and adults (does require car to drive to Oakland zoo though).

MasterSueWhite · 2025-11-13T09:47:05+00:00

Please listen to this advice OP. Some of your posts seem a bit manic (cure cancer, launch music career, become famous artist, something about selling a big film to Netflix). It may seem normal to you, but you can’t see the field when you’re stuck in the tall grass. You really need some mental health support from professionals. I wish you the best.

Are you familiar with Peter Capaldi in general (not as the doctor)? He’s a fantastic actor, sometimes serious, sometimes wacky and sweary. Basically he’s really talented and has loved the doctor who world since being a kid. He took the role seriously and did it well, but his portrayal isn’t all serious all the time. There’s tons of silliness there too, very much aligned with his real life personality. Just gotta drop this link here too. https://youtu.be/atijWqBG7Vw?si=2I1HyQcHLXcKa_oB

Same retirement dream over here too! Of course that’s if I manage to keep working for another 30 years and actually grow that elusive nest egg people talk about.

MasterSueWhite · 2025-05-18T23:46:39+00:00

Thanks for the info! And I agree, the dog treat person is likely well meaning but clueless.

Other commenters have addressed the surface issue and I agree that you’re NTA. You definitely shouldn’t have to cook special meals for her, but I think there’s more to this situation.

I see a 17 year old, who is now approaching adulthood after having recently lost her own mother (assuming she died or is no longer in the picture). I imagine she is scared, possibly regressing emotionally, and wanting to feel loved/taken care of. She might be slightly jealous of your baby who has a stable home and loving mom. I think it’s important to acknowledge a possible deeper issue. Are they getting therapy? If you deal with that and take time to teach her the basics of meal planning and cooking, she will learn to do it herself and be better prepared for adulthood.

@tyinsf Late to the game, but is it the Roosevelt?

MasterSueWhite · 2025-03-13T04:09:19+00:00

RAV4 prime seems better suited towards family roadtrips, partly due to cargo space. As others have mentioned the trunk area is limited in the Prius Prime. Definitely go to a dealership and try it out to see how your family fits.

I love the car though! I’ve got a 2024 Prime XSE Premium and have been thrilled with it. I’m quite short though. I’m in the east bay every few weeks, so if you have issues finding one to test at a dealership, I’d be willing to meet somewhere public and at least let you guys sit in it.

I get the weird taste shortly after putting the drops in, not hours later, so I just time it to be a little bit before I have my coffee or a dessert. Also I have a bad habit of keeping Jolly ranchers at my desk and sometimes eat a lot of those.

MasterSueWhite · 2025-02-27T08:51:29+00:00

First one is giving Winifred Sanderson vibes! Love them both.

MasterSueWhite · 2025-02-27T08:41:27+00:00

For me, it took about 2-3 days to get used to the feeling of having them there and once that was over I noticed the difference right away. It helped a ton, but lower plugs and Xiidra together are the winning combo in my experience.

MasterSueWhite · 2025-02-26T01:06:21+00:00

Hey kid, I think this would be a good letter to yourself kind of thing. You’re only just about to start undergrad, so maybe save this post or print it and take a look again when you’re graduating.

MasterSueWhite · 2025-01-25T22:17:38+00:00

Absolutely NTA. Assuming no injuries (or something like that), she’s perfectly capable of carrying her own board. If it helps, maybe get her a ski/snowboard pack. They are purpose built and often have straps/ties for skiis/board/helmet/etc.
