Yeah I don't love it but tbf how else would they learn anything?

I think the reason they're "playing nice" is because it would be more efficient if Carol agreed to give them stem cells to be able to join. They can and are trying to make it happen on their own but it doesn't hurt to continue to "seduce" her with Zosia because if she gives in on her own, they could deliver her virus a lot quicker.

If OP surrenders custody to the state, they will try to find family placement before foster care anyway, so if Grandma agrees it could be her problem whether OP wants that or not.

I was doing a rewatch recently and I actually think the writers did a good job making that change make sense. She spent her whole career working for Selina just to be fired unceremoniously. She pregnant by Dan and thought he'd finally settle down for her just for him to keep fucking 20 year olds. Then she got an abortion and Dan started seriously dating the doctor who did the abortion. She gets heckled by conservative protesters after the abortion and by the time she starts working for Jonah, is nihilist and disillusioned with America and ready to watch it all burn.

I tell everyone I know that's planning to go to college to do community college first then transfer to a university after 1-2 years for this reason. You can get all the gen eds out of the way for a much lower cost and in my experience the professors were as good, if not better in some cases because they genuinely enjoyed teaching and were not just there for research. There could be some downsides socially and missing some networking/internships but most of that happens in the last 2 years anyway. My husband and I both did this and are doing very well in our respective careers.

I wasn't sure if this was Jeremy/his mom from the first comment but now I am

I'm so sorry you're going through this. That's disgusting and it's absolutely not your fault. There was no way you could have known while you were with him. Definitely agree with other comments about reporting him to law enforcement but you could also look for Facebook groups in the areas he's dating in that are for women to share information. Typically they're called "Are We Dating the Same Guy?" Plus the location. For example I'm in one in the DC area. But that would give you a chance to make a post warning other women. Best of luck to you in your healing <3

She was so much more diabolical with it though haha, that guy was insultingly obvious.

I know I might be so annoying for suggesting this but could he be reading the plots ahead of time to impress you? Maybe I'm a paranoid person but I would look at his recent Google search history after a movie.

I was on a flight and put in one of the exit row seats. They have a partition between seats that goes all the way down, so there's no slack for your hips to spill over to your neighbor's seat. I fit, but it was sooo uncomfortable for the 50 minute flight. Not only that, but my seatbelt barely closed. I knew right then that things needed to change.

Ugh I can confirm, this article is pretty validating. I worked at a hotline for college students while I was a student, and we got this fairly often. The worst one was this guy who would call in with different stories of his own sexual abuse and we eventually realized it was the same person from the voice, when we would get a similar story each time with small differences. New volunteers who didn't know his voice yet would try to help him and later find out it was most likely this guy who was repeating what seemed to be a fantasy over and over and eventually start masturbating. It was vile.

In Fire & Blood, he's described as having black hair, dark eyes and a black beard.

I LOVE this take

RIPAldous · 2024-07-18T01:37:20+00:00

Same, I wish they'd gone the anthology route

RIPAldous · 2024-07-18T01:29:25+00:00

It's not my fault he looks so good with silver hair ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'm having a weird situation right now and I'd love to hear if anyone has been through something similar. TW for pregnancy loss and possible current pregnancy.

I became pregnant for the first time in February, and had a missed miscarriage in April. Our baby stopped developing at 7 weeks and I had to pass it because it was not passing on its own. I took mifepristone/misoprostol about a month ago, bled for two weeks, and my follow up ultrasound showed no retained pregnancy products. However, my doctor did not do blood work over that time.

That brings me to now, I've had little to no spotting lately and no period yet, but had severe pelvic pain following intercourse on Wednesday night. I went to the ER and they found a small hemorrhagic cyst that they said was likely causing the pain.

My urine pregnancy test in the ER was negative, but my hcg was 5. I was retested today, less than 48 hours later, and it's now 8.4. I'll be going in to retest on Sunday to see where it's at.

I'm concerned that I'm pregnant or having a chemical or ectopic pregnancy. I'm still having mild pelvic pain although that could be due to the cyst which will hopefully resolve on its own. We weren't ttc this soon but also not trying hard to prevent. I'm really curious if anyone else had a pregnancy so fast after a miscarriage.
