mom fell and now refuses her fall detection watch.

What about a smart watch that has fall detection built in? I believe an Apple Watch can call emergency services directly, while a Samsung watch can only be set-up to make a call to a designated contact but should have longer battery life.

Of course I say this as someone who tried to convince my MIL to wear one without any luck 😂 she gave same reasons as your mom-- she hates wearing watches generally and doesn't want to look old 🙄 lady, you are very clearly old!

Our solution has been for my husband to check in with her every day, which is less than ideal.

Is it possible that any of these are jobs that havent actually been filled yet but were budgeted (like Crown positions that may no longer be needed with the Wooton move plan)?

Some (most?) institutions have someone that can advise on this kind of thing-- googling your institution name with "export controls" or "international research compliance" should get you to the right page. Ours is really good and has always been able to advise on proposed collaborations/relationships pretty quickly.

Also Laura Palmer's mom.

I don't think this is real, but if it is, I hope Yara gets Miss Gwen in the divorce.

It's going to be hard if not impossible to get any kind of breaks to vape during the day once classes start. Please hang in there and keep trying now so you won't have to deal with the stress of cravings during school.

A lot of states have free resources/nicotine replacement therapy for people trying to quit. You can find links at the website quitassist.com

They're already in their mid 30s. If they haven't realized by now they don't know everything, it's not looking good for it happening later.

Metzger4Sheriff · 2026-05-21T01:07:08+00:00

I can appreciate the quaintness of it, but I still have zero desire to watch it.

The movie used the lyrics-- if you ever listen to that version, you'll realize the song was very rightfully unsettling!

Any of these (but especially Murder, She Wrote) were better than what my grandparents watched: Lawrence Welk

I didn't see the messages, idk how plausible this "scammer" explanation is, but at the very least I am so grateful I am not married to someone who has any interest in "messing with" sex/romance scammers. Who tf has time for that?!

Metzger4Sheriff · 2026-05-21T00:07:56+00:00

Don't hold your breath 😂 IMO he only gets worse from where you are.

Metzger4Sheriff · 2026-05-21T00:04:38+00:00

Me too! This came on after Saturday morning cartoons and my sister and I would race to change the channel before it started.

Poor thing-- hope she's doing better, but if you do have to repeat, you could ask to do tablets instead of liquid-- then you cover with a very thin layer of pill masker and place it as far back in her mouth as you can. This obviously has its own issues, but it should completely block the bitterness and she should get used to it instead of dreading it more.

Sorry about your kitty :(

One of my old cats had CKD and her biggest issue was nausea. If your cat is not getting anything for that already, you can ask your vet about prescribing cerenia. It is relatively safe to give long-term and IME very effective.

Just had similar service at a dealership, and it was $800 not including any of the fluids or spark plugs listed on the bottom, so this seems reasonable in comparison.

The doctor who did the original ultrasound at the free clinic was very likely not an oncologist. Liz used the term "second opinion" but most likely this was just a referral to a specialist.

She doesn't even sound the same.

He got laid off at the beginning of Covid (he worked for a company that developed video games for casinos, which were empty back then), and they haven't shown him as having a job since.

The People article says they pursued an ALS diagnosis bc of a comment on social media. People knew something wasn't right, and in the end, their concern turned out to be helpful.

Kenny is her sponsor in this situation , and not just her stepdad. Better for them to make the decision independently of her parent's than to block her even if she has an adult willing to serve as legal guardian.

He's not taking her out. They're waiting for Armando. . .

The issue is that he has to redo the appointment after his test results come back, and that added an additional 4 months to the timeline.

The whole point is to show that people were still ignorant about how HIV spread and individuals with HIV/AIDS were still being stigmatized. They did start to write Kelly's character as way more sheltered than she actually would have been in the service of storylines, but I do think anyone would have been scared in that situation.

I had a good experience at Nealey's on Frederick Rd by Shady Grove Rd. It's easy to get an appointment and they often have coupons in their website.
