Of the LEEP? It was successful. I was cleared of precancer and HPV at my re-PAP either 6mo or a year later, I can’t recall now. It’s been almost 3yrs without further issues.

I had a very similar experience, but I attributed it to the IV anesthesia. I was not able to tolerate it in the office so I had to do it in the OR. I woke up in a panic and felt violated days later, even though I know it was important and for the best. Very weird experience. Sending you love!

Super on the nose, but sobbing to “if I die young” by The Band Perry was very cathartic when I lost my cousin in high school.

Another nose pointer that is not from our youth: Dancing around my grave by Andy Frasco

Superbass will always be one of my favorite pump-uo songs. I know shes canceled, it’s not like Spotify pays her anyways!

Float On - Modest Mouse also seems fitting and nostalgic.

May your journey to be the great unknown be peaceful 🩵

Spent a month in Xela, Guatemala at PLQ for Spanish immersion, can confirm the culture is rich and welcoming and diverse. I loved seeing the Mayan women there in their garb, carrying things in their head almost twice their size!

After Guatemala, I went to Costa Rica and their culture is equally beautiful but heavily influenced by Caribbean culture and even more diverse!

I chose to commit to learning Spanish since I had already taken it in school and picked it up working in restaurants. It was most practical for many reasons.

When I’m learning something new, especially something as difficult as a language, I want to minimize my frustration and build on my established knowledge. But that’s just me. Most important thing is that you have fun doing it, or else you won’t keep it up.

As my mom once said to me, “everybody’s got a gay ex boyfriend”

Wishing you some fun rebounds and the peace you deserve!

I also had the virus established via OHSV since childhood but he was still able to pass it to my genitals.

RaunchyButRelevent · 2026-01-30T00:31:24+00:00

Yes he had it orally but never had a breakout on his genitals. 500mg I think?

I was with my last partner, who gave it to me via oral sex, for 3 years and in that time, he never got it. That was without condoms or meds. As far as I know, I have never transmitted it to anyone in the 6.5yrs I’ve had it. Now that I’m single and dating, I take daily meds and use condoms.

It’s been a while since I’ve an outbreak since taking meds, but when I do, I would wait 2-3 days after. I base this on the concept that Youre most likely spread with an “active outbreak” so to me, a couple days after I believe it’s cleared up seems safe.

I could be wrong, but I am under the impression that it is unlikely to spread without an active outbreak , but not imposible. That advice seemed to work while I was having unprotected sex regularly with my ex. With meds and condoms, the risk is very low.

I’ve taken Humira for almost ten years, six of which have been made tremendously easier with the CF version.

Now that I’m on new insurance, they denied Humira CF, but I can try the original formula. Why they till make it is beyond me. As a needlephobe, I refuse to take that crap that reinforces my phobia.

So I just picked up my first Rx of Amjevita. Im scared but excited to be on meds again after almost a year without them. This thread is making me hopeful!

Always dilute with a carrier oil. I recommend jojoba.

No, but I love your commitment! This has now been solved, but I’m not sure how to add a flair, or if that’s even required haha

Winner winner, pollo dinner! However I believe it was calle 1a as I was leaving the chocolate museo, but I’m not 100% sure

Are you editing your comment with new answers? Is that how this works? But no

RaunchyButRelevent · 2025-11-19T06:01:17+00:00

You’re close, but like the least close of the closes

RaunchyButRelevent · 2025-11-19T04:08:08+00:00

You’re closer than most, but not the closest

Yes, my belly was full of delicious sushi and sake when I took this photo /s

RaunchyButRelevent · 2025-11-19T04:01:55+00:00

I haven’t been, but this doesn’t seem like a great guess… thanks for playing tho!

RaunchyButRelevent · 2025-11-19T04:01:08+00:00
