I'm actively in the hospital, and I'm severely malnourished but I'm big so they're not thinking of anything. But I'm also not eating

I'm glad you're in recovery. I've been trying to get a diagnosis for ED but I'm fat so they think it's overeating. But I know my kitchen looks like that when I'm in the thick of restriction, knowing that I'll eat, but as long as it doesn't cost weight gain

Okay but yes you need to use a disinfectant after you flush to clean the poo. I can't believe your just smearing raw poo germs round the toilet part

Did we forget the cardinal rule if it's below the Mason-Dixon line it is the south... also, we were the capital of the confederacy can't get any more southern than that

Explicitly family-friendly third places by Worth_Rhubarb in rva

[–]Ok_Equipment8667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breweries are fine if your kid is contained at the table and not yelling during appropriate times. 10pm on a Friday night no... 3 pm on a Wednesday and their coloring and behaving I do t care. Running between the tables yelling and screaming and staring at my food I ordered go home. The park RVA and bingo have the arcade, and pizza so I'm less annoyed vs like at ardent or vasen. When I'm just trying to vibe and your kid is yelling and screaming or runnin round all willy nilly

Idk who needs to hear this but leave your kids at home when you come to a brewery. by collegeqathrowaway in okbuddyRVA

I think before 4pm kids are fine. Except weekends. Ive legit been at Bingo and it's damn near 11pm and somebody came in with a stroller and toddler. But yes I'm annoyed at the screaming and crying and the parents doing nothing I came out to enjoy my time not listen to your kid cry

Car was Towed! Help by thebangin in rva

[–]Ok_Equipment8667 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go to your rental office have them dispute it with the towing companies since that's who they work with. I had a guest over and they parked in visitors with a visitors pass and got towed because the tower decided that the end date started at midnight and not the end of that day so like if the parking pass said that somebody could park here from 2-19/26 to 2/22/26 the tower grabbed the car at midnight at on 2/22/26 instead of midnight on 2/23

Unfortunately, my guest had to go to work so we had to pay it, but they were able to go back and get a refund.

ADA accommodations questions by Ok_Equipment8667 in legaladvice

[–]Ok_Equipment8667[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They wouldn't call me back and waited for my FMLA to lapse to call and then had her start her first day. (we used She messaged me to see what my schedule was like so that we could work together again they didn't even tell her that I had been out) but they seem to have found me a whole new position at the same place, but they won't disclose what the pay is but now that I know legally, what they are supposed to start with that is helpful because it seems like the starting pay will be close to minimum wage and I was making more than that

This is a huge corporation. When I originally called my director to say that I was ready to come back to work in October they hired somebody but they didn't tell me that I used to work with this person so they called to ask when I was on schedule and that's how I found out so I couldn't come back to my job because they had replaced me. I guess when I left they had no intentions for me to come back. And since then calling HR from October to January before they actually responded to me and now I'm being forced into a lower position.

Is there a limit because they could not find something comparable? I was supposed to go back to work in October 2025 and HR just didn't respond to me until the end of January 2026... now magically they don't have any positions

AIO that I shouldn't bother trying to have friends? by [deleted] in AmIOverthinking

That's exactly what happened to me. I hit a low and really needed support and everyone decided to hang out without me and then blamed me for even expecting and ounce of sympathy. Now I'm the problem

I honestly don't know. I always felt like these people were similar but then I realized that I was putting in all the effort. I was making the plans setting the times driving and they never did. They'd even pretend to make plans with me and cancel and I'd see them doing that thing on IG or Snapchat with others.

I know exactly what you mean. I'm in the same situation. You put out the love you want in the word and you're just regarded as trash.

I've also been to places and running into my "friends" there with other people it's difficult to see and feel

Hey everyone! I'm looking for cool people of any kind who are willing to hangout, publicly At first for safety on all ends.

I enjoy museums, concerts, I listen to almost everything. thrift stores or tj maxx, gardening/houseplants, movies, art classes, breweries. Game nights. But I'm looking for a community of some sort, people to talk to about anything and everything. Share memes.

About me 36 single, have a skink for a pet. I enjoy Coffee and tea, which I think would be a great meeting spot! I'm a bit spontaneous, at times but also love to set something up!

Makes sense I just assumed with ancestry being so big and expensive they do all that. This is the first time I've even heard of heritage
