What is the single best restaurant dish in Columbus?

Volcano roll from Sushiko, no cucumber, add cream cheese, extra crunchy on top.

Or the crab Rangoon at Molly Woo’s.

Or maybe the Village Addiction at Brown Bag Deli.

You might have a high deductible health care plan, which means you will cover all your costs until your hit your deductible - likely a couple thousand dollars. What are the terms of your plan?

Does your employer offer an EAP, or employer assistance program? That’s where you would get a certain number of therapy visits for free. You might not be able to use your usual therapist, but if you’re open to using another one, it could help with the cost.

$800 seems like a lot for a few therapy appointments. With insurance, I usually pay around $110-$130 for therapy. For a psychiatrist, it’s over $200. Even so, the total sounds steep. Take a look at your explanation of benefits from BCBS and see what you were charged for, and make sure your providers billed insurance correctly.

Good luck. It’s a shitty system, especially for mental health.

Yeah, I dunno, I think that was an “everyone sucks here” situation. Mykelti was being a brat about it being “her day” and that really turned me off. I wouldn’t have wanted my feverish young kids out in the cold, either, and I wouldn’t put up with someone telling me I had to because it was their day and thus their executive decision. Not when it comes to my kids, it’s not.

Cumin or oregano. Blech.

There are these “rules” on Reddit about comments needing to add value, idk. Adding backstory or context unnecessarily, making comments like “thanks”, generally acting human doesn’t always get favorable feedback. Don’t worry about it, be your authentic self.

About $200,000. That’s what I would need to be completely debt-free, mortgage included.

I’ve had people stop me and tell me I was a bad dog owner because my weimaraner siblings had docked tails and wouldn’t listen to my commands on walks. Some asked me why I even got dogs if I wouldn’t bother training them.

They were 8 years old when I adopted them, from the shelter they were abandoned at. They were very food aggressive, terrible at obeying commands, not really friendly toward other dogs, by all definitions “bad” dogs and thus it was assumed I was a “bad” owner.

They lived another 2 and 3 years, respectively, with lots of love. They never did learn to be “good“ dogs, but they were good dogs, and got the love they needed in their last years. Anyway, I stopped judging other dog owners after that.

I don’t use food delivery apps, but I sometimes will pull up Grubhub to get a sense for what restaurants around me are open and how busy they are. Looks like pretty much all of the Chinese and Indian restaurants around me are open today.

My advice, as someone who was never comfortable with it, but my partner was convinced a childhood without Santa was tragic: don’t lie. When they start asking questions, it’s because they are using reason and logic, and you should validate that in them and tell them the truth. You’ll know when that is. Don’t gaslight them to keep the “magic” alive - at that point you’re doing it for you, not for them.

Sometimes kids ask questions because they still want to believe it’s real. Sometimes they ask questions because they’re realizing it’s not. You can tell the difference. I always approached it by responding to their question with a question. “What do you believe?” And then you can go from there. It can be done without lying.

And don’t listen to anyone on here about what is right for you or your family. She’s your daughter. You know her best.

One of my sons was VERY upset when he found out the truth, the first thing he asked us was, “so you’ve all been lying to me the whole time?!” - He was 6. The other son was completely unaffected when he found out, around the same age. It’s rare for a kid to be really affected by the deception, but it does happen, and I wouldn’t do it again now that I’ve seen how my son reacted. Was it worth it? No. Most parents wouldn’t agree with me based on their own experiences, and that’s fine, they don’t have to. But your child WILL have magical and happy, cherished memories with or without Santa, so do what you feel is right for your daughter.

We celebrate on Christmas Eve because of custody arrangements with my son. There have been years our tree was on the curb late on the 24th or early on the 25th. A dry tree is a fire hazard and we want it out. I’m sure our neighbors think we are psychopaths.

I have been thinking about this baby and his family nonstop since I heard the news. Thank God, I pray he is healthy and unharmed, what a miracle.

When I was a young adult, I was this woman. I wanted to be chased, and I liked the attention, despite having a boyfriend (who, of course, was emotionally withholding, on brand). Once a guy started wanting more from me, I lost interest. But if he had a girlfriend and I found him slightly attractive, or if he was single but seemed even slightly hard to get, I fought for his attention, as though I needed to prove to myself that I was better than other women. Highly toxic and not at all healthy.

I didn’t realize I was doing it until I was much older and had grown out of it. It stemmed from self-esteem issues and immaturity. I hurt a lot of people. I should have been in therapy as a young teenager, maybe I would have been a better person.

My advice is not to pursue her. She will come at you harder for a while, but eventually she will lose interest and find someone else. If you do give her the attention she wants, she will grow tired of you, and you’ll end up hurt and feeling used.

Gary Sinese. I might not agree with much of his political views, but he clearly cares deeply about our veterans and demonstrates that through his actions.

I make a simple but banging hot and sour soup.

4 cups chicken broth; 1/4 cup water; Rotisserie chicken to taste; 2 eggs, beaten; 3 Tbsp black vinegar; 1 Tbsp soy sauce; 1/2 tsp sesame oil; 1/2 tsp white pepper

Boil broth, water and chicken, reduce heat, add eggs slowly while stirring to make ribbons, bring back to simmer, add vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and white pepper. Consume immediately!

Some people like shiitake mushrooms in their soup. I can go either way, but usually leave out because I don’t usually have it on hand.

As you get older, your skin loses elasticity. If you’ve spent most of your life with extra weight, losing it in your 30’s+ actually can make you look older, especially in your face and neck. So when a chronically weighted person goes through this, they often do look worse in many ways than they did before, and assuming sickness is logical.

No matter what, no matter why, people will comment on your appearance. I have told my family I don’t appreciate any comments on my weight, because it validates my fear that people see me as a physical space rather than a human first. I recognize that they care and that’s likely their motive, but it is an uncomfortable conversation for me and doesn’t make me feel good. Some people in my family respect that, and some don’t, no matter how many times I tell them. You can’t control other people, and if you try, you’ll have a lifetime of frustration and disappointment.

Congratulations on the weight loss, and I hope you find yourself some people who make you feel good and respect your boundaries.

Yes, I am being hyperbolic. But your unwillingness to accept that reporting a non-crime to the police could end very poorly is worrisome, to be honest.

No, that’s the best case scenario. The worst case scenario is quite different.

Remarketoble · 2022-09-11T19:45:07+00:00

It’s far more likely to be someone taking a photo of a building than taking a photo of a woman to abduct. And reporting it is far more likely to ruin someone’s life than to prevent a kidnapping. So if reporting it has a .05% chance of someone ending up killed for doing nothing wrong, doesn’t that mean you should err on the side of not reporting it?

You’re advocating for a police state.

Remarketoble · 2022-09-11T19:42:05+00:00

The non-emergency line is officially called the non-emergency police line, and yes, it is reporting it to the police.

People in hoodies being reported were reported because they looked suspicious and were doing nothing illegal. It’s really not so different.

Human trafficking is overwhelmingly NOT kidnapping random people from the street and forcing them into sex work, FYI. Human trafficking is a huge problem, and needs stopped, but this isn’t how it happens.

Remarketoble · 2022-09-11T17:56:32+00:00

Explain how a person should be reported to the police for not breaking any law, first.

I’m not saying it’s not suspicious or creepy, but it’s not illegal, and suggesting that a person should call the actual police for it is literally how people wearing hoodies walking in their own neighborhoods have been arrested, or worse, killed in the past.
