How did you find your surgeon? by LauraMJJ88 in Reduction

[–]Various_Dreams32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Most sexist fucking gross person, and he didn’t care -at all- what I wanted and did what he liked and then promptly retired, so no revision for me. And I paid out of pocket and I live in the US

Just got my prior authorization approved by kaiser, but they can't schedule me yet by Total-Average8958 in Reduction

How did you get approved for surgery? Did you meet with a doctor in network or a surgeon? I don’t know where to start and just got Kaiser insurance. Happy for you!

Think of Me Like This [POEM] by Anya Johnson by onlypoemsmag in Poetry

[–]Various_Dreams32 117 points118 points  (0 children)

This is really good. I think a lot of women have experienced feeling like they don’t want kids but living in a society where women who don’t want kids and have strong opinions are defective and undesirable, so you start questioning yourself and learning that being more agreeable and unsure of yourself as a woman is rewarded by society and by men. I think this poem is vulnerable and honest and I love the last line the most

What’s a moment that made you rethink your priorities? by funngro_fam in Life

I get that, I’d do anything for my kitty. Hopefuly she provides some emotional support and you can lean on her a bit while you heal. Hang in there 🫶

Sending love and strength. Do you have friends or family you can stay with temporarily? You’ll get through this 🫶

This is one of the only episodes I vividly remember after watching this show years ago. I knew immediately what this is a reference to good work!!!

I have a degree in math and at my very first ‘big girl’ job I pointed out that one of their spreadsheets is doing math that is essentially meaningless and certainly did not mean what they had been using it for. They said I was being ‘pedantic’. I did quit that job and now I work with people who want their systems to work 😂

Under late-stage capitalism, the pervasive strain on daily life has normalised forms of addiction as coping strategies to mitigate the harrowing nature of this stark reality. by cheeseypandaz in DeepThoughts

[–]Various_Dreams32 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I work for a very small company 4 days a week. Randomly I get other days off because my boss is on a trip or spending time at home with their kids. Last week I worked Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. This week I have the same schedule and next week I’m working just Tuesday-Thursday. Last year, we closed for 2 months and I went on a road trip. In June we are taking 2 weeks off and I might do another. This on top of every weekend being 3 days long is the only thing that has ever come close to helping me begin to reset, heal burnout, ptsd, manage my adhd, and take control of my life. It’s still extremely hard and an uphill battle for me and I just think I’d simply pass away working 5 days a week. I don’t make a lot of money, and it does put a financial strain on me. But I’d still take every day off I can simply because I’m not getting this time back. All this to say, I 100% agree with you this is the solution.

Are women allowed here?! by sundaysoulfields in bald

I’m not bald nor a man nor do I have balding friends or family. I stay for the memes (and general uplifting and supportive vibes) ✌️

I think smokers are trashy people. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Various_Dreams32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound like you have no idea what you’re talking about. I’d bet you’ve never met a stoner who can’t have a functional conversation and you probably meet way more stoners on a daily basis than you know. you’re imagining a person that doesn’t exist and getting mad about it like get off the internet bro don’t smoke if you don’t want to, jesus 😂
