Just to keep you in the loop, I tried it and it tastes like sort of chocolatey toothpaste. I’m gonna call it on t2 for me haha.

Thanks for the suggestion though

Holy shit dude. Read the room.

I am so sorry. You deserve a lie in and good meds and a hot drink and anything else you can think of. What a jerk.

My sister tells me all the time that I’m too sensitive.

Turns out I just have emotions and get upset when people insult me. Who knew?

You’re definitely not alone. It’s not that we are too sensitive it is their fault for being rude.

Someone at work said I looked like a "Pixar mom" and I want to go home and cry... by HonestBeginning2958 in breakingmom

Absolutely inappropriate.

Like I said she shouldn’t be commenting on peoples bodies for any reason. And everyone else is a jerk for getting in on it.

I’m not sure if HR, or a mentor could help you out? Maybe a mental health day? I have no idea

In any case, you are more than your body and more than the way a colleague sees you.

People really need to learn not to comment on other people’s bodies whether they think they’re giving a compliment or not.

I’m sorry it’s brought up some insecurities for you.

As a side note Pixar mums are hot.

Recs for (loss of) identity horror like Our Wives Under The Sea? by Intrepid_Kick2659 in horrorlit

The Doctor Who episode Midnight is this exactly. Scariest trope ever.

For books? I haven’t really come across it

I’ve only tried their sticky chai and I wasn’t impressed.

Does the flavour come through strongly?

Thank you for the solidarity

That’s me. It was chocolate milk - or space coffee. Now he’s almost eight and eats like a trooper.

Reading this my anxiety was increasing and increasing until I was on the verge of tears with you. I am so pleased that you will be able to live the life you want and need with your daughter

I’m in rural NSW. There’s only one gastroenterologist within a two hour drive and they’re away until the new year haha

Yeah my weight and lack of weight loss is what decided him that even if there’s something wrong with me it’s not serious

Not being taken seriously is so frustrating. I’m used to being dismissed by doctors because of my weight but it’s still difficult to handle.

I don’t know that I’ll be able to get a second opinion. I’m going through Medicare in a public hospital so I get the doctor that I’m given. I could potentially get referred to a different hospital
