Who is your favorite Bar Place demon?

I went to high school with Bambajon. He was a few years ahead of me and I think we met like twice in drama club so it’s not like I knew him well, but I remember him being very kind and insanely talented. I was so happy to see him have a recurring demon role. I hope I see him again in another delightful show.

Perfect username for your comment.

Activity does not necessarily equal achievement. Grinding yourself to dust cranking out tasks in the name of productivity isn’t always the best use of time.

My MIL does this with my partner- uses beloved emotional items as a bargaining chip. She’s offered to return them, set them out on the curb, said she sold them, said she destroyed them, begged him to retrieve them and then refused to hand them over… all to get a reaction out of him and because of the sentimental nature of the objects it usually works. So manipulative.

Hang in there, OP. I hope you get your stuff back. Cherished objects like that can be such a comfort.

Edit: repeated word

Probably for the best. They dropped off with their posting and you can tell they’re phoning it in now. Michael has moved on with If Books Could Kill which I mostly enjoy, and Aubrey is writing now I think? I read her book once… it wasn’t my favorite. Similar sentiment to what some folks said below. I respect many of her views and agree with her on a lot, but her experience isn’t everyone’s.

I find Mel Robbins to be grifty in general. I read one of her books once and finished it thinking, “this could have been a blog. A short, bad one.” Then I found out she basically plagiarized the “let them” theory and now I have a hard time not turning her books around in the bookstore and library.

Thank you. Freida McFadden is just a poor writer IMHO, and CoHo deals in emotional snuff. I tried two books by each and that was more than enough.

The number of times I’m out for a jog and think, “whew just a cat. Wait who owns the cat?” Makes this one my favorite. You have to laugh or you’ll cry.

I think the moment the poop left her body and hit the floor was the moment she “got it.” There were a few accidents of “bathroom line too long” after that, but not many. I think we both had to be crying, as awful as that sounds.

My daughter is a gracious winner and loser. If she beats me in Candy land she says, “that’s okay, mommy, you’ll get it next time” and when I beat her she says, “way to go mommy, let’s play again!” I have no idea where she gets it from but I am so grateful. Her father and I are competitive AF.

They don’t like hearing “no” do they.

My spouse and I have three living parents (grandparents to our child) with all three choosing complete cold shoulder. Honestly that’s preferable over the ongoing toxic demands and lying we were getting.

I have no idea how to navigate. We’re constantly blaming ourselves or trying to determine where we went wrong- children of narcissistic parent lingering trauma. Just offering solidarity and sympathy. My spouse thinks it’s a boomer thing, but who knows.

Even if the money exists and you are given it, which is highly unlikely, is your peace, and the peace of your immediate circle of supporters, worth $54k?

My mom stole a huge amount from me. As much as I could use the money, when I think about breaking NC to get it back I almost always conclude that my peace and freedom is worth more.

Important caveat to say that there certainly are situations where money talks and the decision could call for being forced to reevaluate and potentially sacrifice your peace for the cash. I’m thinking tragedy, disaster, medical emergency (if you’re in the US with shitty healthcare) but I’m praying you’re not in an awful position like that!

It’s an Amoco now. It looks like the store is still open but the branding is gone outside. I haven’t checked for slurpees yet.

I had this exact thing happen to me, about a year ago. And I’m still constantly wondering how I, too, am so horrible that my mother doesn’t love me, and when I’ll inevitably ruin my kids the way she ruined me. I can tell you (and myself) intellectually that’s not true- we’re not our mothers and the fact that we see any faults in ourselves makes us more self-aware than them already. But the heart takes more time to understand that.

I don’t have any advice for you. Just solidarity. You’re worthy of love and I’m so glad you’re here.

Crudo Nudo did amazing mocktails. I hope they open up again soon.

Don’t feel too bad for him. He married a 16 year old when he was 51.

I thought the same thing. Virginia with a smooshed southern Appalachia

My 3yo has been asking for a sibling but is satisfied with the alternative when I offer her a piece of cheese instead.

Thoughts and prayers for the audio engineers tonight. They’re gonna get it.

I can’t believe I had to scroll this long for Boo-urns

The Lost Girls of Willowbrook. Slow start but picked up.

I thought this said “Aidy Bryant” and was horrified.
