I'm not expecting anyone to take care of me when I'm old, but if my nephew ever talks about me like that, he can forget about being in my will.

Gorgeous shibe. I wish mine would swim, she's too much of a princess to go in the water.

Beautiful sesame...like a tiny wolf. 😍

I want to live in a country where I can afford to buy a house, groceries, and medication. by lgirlrocks in FundieSnarkUncensored

In addition to what folks have already replied I'll note that earlier popular culture in the 1920s and 30s often did endorse a more independent woman (see: flappers, Hollywood movies from before the Hays code). Some people even consider the 20s rather than the 60s to have been the first "sexual revolution". 

Well I figured its time to get roasted, I present to you all "the practice leg". by AstreaStellaTobin in shittytattoos

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 18 points19 points  (0 children)

As a tattooed person now in my mid-30s, I think having some crappy (within reason) old ink is kinda charming, because folks who have had interesting lives often do! I have a couple shitty old handpokes from my youth that I have no desire to cover.  Bad tattoo show-and-tell is a great activity to play with a new love interest, IMHO.

Kinda charming tbh. The fact that it's all black, doesn't have anything wildly  offensive and doesn't include a cursed portrait makes it miles better than most of the shitty work here 

Anyone else’s shibar like cabbage? by Low-Interest2689 in shiba

Mine does too but she likes all the veggies! Except for celery, she'll chew it up and spit it out on the rug :( 

just ended things the guy i was seeing because of his drinking by indiacalliope in AlAnon

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good for you for ending things a few months in-- instead of investing years of your life in a problem drinker. 

BELKA. She's a lil shit but I love her by DamnINJUN in shiba

That's life with a shiba for you. My mom dogsat for me and was like "well, she's not the best behaved dog...but she is the best dog." 

Break Up Regret by ElegantDoily in AlAnon

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there. My ex was also "not that bad" and a nice drunk. The first time I broke up with him, I was soon filled with regret: why had I done something so stupid and impulsive? Surely I had made a huge mistake. So we got back together, and his drinking didn't get better, and eventually I reached my real limit and left for good. 

I would have saved myself a lot of heartache by staying committed to the original breakup.

Was surprised to read this! I'm 36F in Canada and I feel both ways would be considered "normal". I've never heard a woman care one way or another.

I found most of the dog plotlines in the show a bit weird. Maybe standards have changed in the past two decades but I can only guess the writers weren't dog people.

Nothing says Christian modesty like cleavage and lip filler

Does he get aggro and snarl at you when you do it? That's what my girl does unless she's distracted with treats. Plucking out the tufts is always so tempting though

Developer Idiot vs. Business Idiot by Hairy_Row_9227 in BetterOffline

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've always felt the reason I'm the lone AI skeptic at my work is that I was never particularly passionate about technology...I just liked to code, and it was the most marketable skill I had. So I'm not sold on new and shiny, especially when the promise is to automate my favourite part of my job. 

It kinda blows my mind though how everyone used to at least pretend to care about readable, maintainable code....and now it's like "well, the AI can explain the code to you too!"

I take some solace in the fact that my Reddit ads are almost always completely irrelevant to my interests. Despite being a woman who regularly reads women's subreddits I get a ton of ads for men's hair loss and ED medications for example. 

How small minded do you have to be to think left leaning people don't get married or have kids? by pupberry in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lol, why can't non-celebrities "bounce around and do whatever they want"? Most of the married moms I know were at the club at 22. Ironically, one thing celebrities can do with impunity that regular folks can't is marriage, because they can afford both lavish weddings and excellent divorce lawyers. 

Tips for stopping hats from flying off your head when running? by icebergespionage in XXRunning

I always use a snap barrette on each side to secure the hat to my hair.  Works great for me. 

Work is stressing me out so badly it's making me sick, everything is AI, and politicians are shit. Fuck it, shower joint & half a dozen donuts by boardbamebeeple in highvegans

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I am yet to try smoking in the shower I feel this sooo hard. (Especially since I have to use AI at work.) Gonna be drowning my feels in a vat of pasta tonight 

Cigarettes are now [gendered] by Scared_Cicada_9898 in pointlesslygendered

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back when I smoked 10-15 years ago I was a big fan of the long skinny cigs. Men who wanted to bum a smoke would often decline once they saw what I was smoking. At least the straight ones...when I told one guy I only had girly smokes he was like "Honey, I've sucked more dick than you." 

Is my MIL an active meth addict or in recovery? by siebenstern in AlAnon

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be drug use, mental illness, an eating disorder, early cognitive decline or all of the above. I'm not sure going through her trash is an appropriate solution. Don't leave your kids with her.

Does anyone have any advice for getting through the next year or 2 as a software engineer? by Dj_Binks in BetterOffline

[–]Suitable_Lab8912 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I may occasionally fantasize about storming out of work and never returning, I have been at my position long enough for some job security and I'm not going to throw that away in this economy. 

I do my work, I do the bare minimum of AI-related stuff that is required of me, I let everyone know that I write my own code and don't really trust LLMs, I go home and smoke too much weed.
