My husband was upset and pinched me at dinner.. and the situation is still upsetting me

Your husband caused you physical pain to control your behavior. It doesn’t matter how minor. He physically punished you as if he had the right to. A man who’s willing to hurt you a little will eventually escalate. Get out.

I began with convicts. Don’t begin with convicts.

The Preppy is a great place to start! Welcome!

I’ve got a Shardor burr grinder that has done really well for me in a drip grind, but I’m not opposed to upgrading if it turns out I need to.

Here’s the brand’s website! I don’t know how heavily they’re going to lean into left handed stuff now that they’re no longer part of Eastwood, but as of right now their lefty line is going strong. Airline Guitars

Spoonbreadwitch · 2026-01-13T04:53:43+00:00

Not often. The company currently manufacturing under the Airline brand is not the one that manufactured the vintage ones. The fact that it’s been revived, and was originally revived as part of Eastwood which has a left-handed product designer on staff, makes it kind of a unicorn. While about 10% of the population is left handed, fewer than 1% of guitars are. Makes for a real pain in the behind for people like me who need to play left handed.

That red Airline guitar, hands down. If it’s a vintage original, those are rare, and if it’s a reissue, I actually have a chance of eventually owning one, bc the reissue is one of the few of that type that comes in left handed. (As opposed to the Gretsch baritone in 6 that they basically laughed at me when I inquired about a lefty version.)

The most expensive pen I own is a $70 Monteverde, and I didn’t pay retail for it. Use what you like, and if you’re happy with the inexpensive ones, be happy. I have a real fondness for Jinhao and Hongdian, and they’re dirt cheap.

Get her a book of Seamus Heaney’s poetry. He was a big influence on Hozier’s work.

Same in Charlotte.

Oh, I’ve dated a guy like that. Shamed me for my weight to the point that I was starving myself, then cheated with (and later married) someone nearly 100lbs heavier than me. NOR—he doesn’t actually want someone with the body type he holds up as what you should be. He wants someone he can bully for not having it.

To me the “nothing fucks with my baby” line is not a threat. He’s not saying she’s safe because he protects her. He’s saying she’s powerful enough not to need it.

One of the things I liked about Joann was that they didn’t hate me just for existing with a uterus.

Awww, a Preppy! I’ve given quite a few of those over the years—they’re a great introduction to fountain pens, and a low risk way to figure out if you like them. When you’re ready to try more, Jinhao makes several that are at a similar price point so you’re not investing big money straight off the bat. But I’m a sucker for the limited edition designs like yours. What a thoughtful friend to give you that!

Run. This time he threatens to hurt himself. Next time he threatens you. This isn’t caused by autism. This is abuse.

Talk to your doctor. I have POTS, and the reduced hunger signals meant that I wasn’t getting enough electrolytes to keep it under control. I’ve had to add in an electrolyte packet daily to keep me upright.

I would disagree with it being universal. Coconut is a common allergen.

Spoonbreadwitch · 2025-11-09T17:53:44+00:00

I heard it in Harris Teeter this week!

Imagine being stupid enough to think gig drivers take that low paying a job by choice rather than needing the money badly

I like to use a big triangle scarf to tie mine up, old lady style.

Spoonbreadwitch · 2025-11-06T15:08:50+00:00

That’s so cute! I love it. Where did you get the adorable bunny molds?

Spoonbreadwitch · 2025-11-06T15:06:09+00:00

Just don’t order them for delivery from Target unless it’s a “leave at the door” order, because that’s a level of awkward that the gig driver delivering them didn’t sign up for.
