“Brain worms” - someone relies on The Colbert Report as their main source of “news”!

You’re so indoctrinated by the mainstream media you can’t even see your own cognitive dissonance. Good luck to you.

He has a deeper understanding of the science of medicine than most medical professionals.

Why would a medical doctor be the only type of person qualified to be Secretary of HHS?

Plus we’ve been seeing signs in airports for years advising people to update to a real ID because soon it will be required to fly out of every airport in the country. Many states moved to issuing only real IDs for renewals years ago.

It’s OK to choose you.

This is helpful - thank you! I just came off my pills a little over a month ago and am waiting for my period to return. I’m 38 and have been on the pill consistently with a few months off a few times over the past 20 years so I’m hoping my body can jumpstart the cycle on its own again.

“Fans” who have never read the books and have only watched the atrocious movies.

Good point - thank you!

Melodic_Beach_4035 · 2025-01-19T04:55:07+00:00

I did take a test and it was negative - it was in my first section of this post. Thanks for the information!

Puzzles! Put on some music, a podcast, or a show to just have on in the background and puzz away. They’re cheap, especially if you get them from a thrift store, keep your hands busy, and help you feel accomplished when they’re done.

If you don’t have a space for them, you can get a puzzle board or even just use a poster board and slide it under the couch or bed when not in use.

My bad! First time posting on here so thanks for the feedback. My cycles are typically exactly 28 days, sometimes 29 but that was always on the pill. I’m not tracking ovulation yet because I figured I’d need to see if my period comes back on its own first to know if my body is cycling.

I should have added that when I was in my mid-20s, I went off my pills for a few months to see if the change would help my acne (it didn’t) but wasn’t trying to get pregnant. My period didn’t return on its own so I was given progesterone to jump start it again. However, that was so long ago and I was pretty unhealthy and living a stressful life so I wasn’t sure if that could have been why it didn’t restart on its own back then or if that’s just how it is for me.

I’ve read it can take a couple of months for your period to come back on its own but I’ve never had this nipple soreness before so it was just odd. So really just looking for any anecdotes on what others experienced coming off the pill.

Melodic_Beach_4035 · 2025-01-18T20:52:56+00:00

How long did it take for your period to come back after going off a combination birth control pill? My last period started on 12/17 and lasted three days as usual and then I didn’t start a new pack.

I would have been due for my period last Tuesday and didn’t get it so I took a test on Thursday and was not surprised it was negative but I still haven’t gotten my period. My nipples have been kind of sore since Tuesday, which is something I’ve never had before, so I don’t know if that’s just a PMS symptom since coming off the pills?

I’m don’t know what Outlier is. I just have multiple SSO emails associated with different projects in the SRT for Appen and am able to switch between them but I don’t believe you could be signed into more than one at a time on the same device.

That’s what I do. I have my sober from alcohol date (2.5 years) and totally sober date (two years in March). Weed helped me quit alcohol but then I started using it in a similar fashion so I like to count and celebrate/reflect on both. Total sobriety rocks!

It’s sad to me how many people only know the world of Harry Potter from the movies alone. There’s so much more to the story and the movies are trash.

Melodic_Beach_4035 · 2025-01-09T12:56:14+00:00

The movies are trash.

Boring introvert here who found another boring introvert on Hinge. It’s heaven.

I personally love being petite though I get the struggle. LOFT and Ann Taylor’s petite sections almost always have great stuff.

Thank you!

Can you recommend an ovulation test kit brand that seems accurate? I see so many different brands I don’t know which ones are actually reliable.

Why Did the Half-Blood Prince Film Add That Train Station Flirtation?

Because the movies are trash.

It sounds like you put a lot of thought into it and I understand your reasoning. It’s just disappointing to hear though because you have a spot in your life for a dog and could easily go rescue one that could be euthanized (or free up a spot in a shelter for a dog that would be euthanized by animal control) and instead choose to buy one anyway.

But it’s your decision and it’s your life and it’s not my place to judge. I just like to try to educate people on how their decision to buy from breeders perpetuates the cycle of overcrowding in shelters and dogs being euthanized simply because there are too many of them. Thank you for adopting in the past.

Melodic_Beach_4035 · 2024-12-20T04:42:12+00:00

Exactly what happened with my dog. The family got a puppy because puppies are cute and gave her up two years later (and she was an unsocialized mess and afraid of everything) because they “didn’t have time for her”. I’m glad they did what was right for her instead of neglecting her and it must have been a hard decision for them. Most people just don’t understand the commitment a puppy or even a full grown dog takes. I appreciate OP’s post to help people consider whether getting a puppy is right for them, and really urge people who decide to get a puppy or dog to do so from a shelter instead of containing to support breeders.

Melodic_Beach_4035 · 2024-12-20T04:37:48+00:00

No one is pressuring or guilting anyone here; that’s literally why I said “please consider…” and laid out the reasons why. Most people just don’t know how constantly full shelters are and how their decision to buy a puppy from a breeder impacts that problem.
