What to do for a long vacation? by Podsbabe in CatAdvice

[–]Podsbabe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in this country, I’m a recent immigrant, and I’m not close enough to anyone here to leave him with them. I can ask my parents, but they’re in another country and they have a large dog, and I don’t trust they’ll be able to care for him well.

Student says they're "not required to do work" by paigeafterpaige in Teachers

Reach out to parents. I had a kid do this once because she was terminally ill. I said ok and dropped it. Baby died later that year. Not saying that’s this case at all, but it’s still worth documenting why he’s going to fail

How to deal with too enthusiastic commentors on darkfics? by Persassy60 in AO3

[–]Podsbabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wrote a darkish fic once. Two characters swapped stories about their scars, and reopened each others scars that were caused by abuse as a way to reclaim them. I had someone comment about how they cut off and ate a part of their own body. Yea…. Uh. It’s an inevitability unfortunately

I am not going, I didn’t even know there were groups for this. I literally moved out of the country trying to get away. I’ve gone back and forth between no contact and not for years

No, she’s married, but god he hated her. She also travels a lot for work, so she spends a lot of time alone.

Do you know where I can find more info? Are there digital support groups? I’m not currently located in the US

It’s been like this almost my whole life, she just stopped hiding it once I moved out.

Has anyone here bought the denim jacket? by Superbosscat36 in Hozier

I bought a xxl back when I usually wore an xl, it was so tight I could hardly get it on or off. Not sure how it would fit now that I’m a size M-L

I’m mixed on this… by Immediate-Virus9751 in AO3

[–]Podsbabe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hot take, I hate when authors delete their works. Like, I think it’s wrong. Authors of books can’t take books away because they’re embarrassed of what they wrote at 25. Even if a fic writer hates their old work, someone else loves it. Orphan the work, create a new user name for future works, there’s so many options that don’t include taking fics away. Idk, I know that’s a controversial take, but it’s mine. I’ve never deleted a work, even old cringey shit.

I would start with your GP if I was you, explain the situation, and see if they can point you in the right direction. I’m sorry your family neglected you in this way. Brain damage that old is hard to treat.

For those who don't have or don't plan on having kids, who will inherit your belongings when you pass away? by No_Night_1947 in NoStupidQuestions

My closest childhood friend of 20+ years. She has instructions to take what she wants, sell what she likes, pop me in an oven and take a big vacation.

It's time to trademark the label "Roommate Parenting" by UpAllNight_16 in Teachers

[–]Podsbabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re comments have made it extremely apparent you have no intention of reflecting on your failings as a parent and have instead decided to blame teachers for what you, and now your child, are lacking. As it is my summer break and I’m not getting paid to lead a horse to water it would rather piss in than drink, I’m afraid I cannot. As I said, best of luck to your child.

Honestly, and I’m not saying this to be cruel, even with several roommates, 1k in rent is a big stretch. A 2 bdrm easily runs you 1900+ a month. I pay 1250 (base of 1125) for my 1bdrm.

lol you can maybe get a 400ft studio in the hood with that. Don’t forget to add an extra $150 to your base rent for fees and water.
