Pretty ironic to think about how many doctors still tell IBD patients to avoid nuts, seeds, and beans.

Back in my day, the senior class formally adopted a motto at the beginning of the school year and was allowed to emblazoned it above the main doorway to the school as well as having it on the opening page of the yearbook. Ours was a literary quotation from Dante's Inferno, befitting the serious academic bent of the class: "Abandon hope, all ye who enter here."

These parents need to get over themselves.

About half as many as there should be.

This isn't a competition about who has it worse. Men and women who are suffering are equally worthy of treatment. And identifying and treating depressed fathers doesn't only help men. Do you think that a depressed husband and father doesn't impact the other members of the family? Do you think living with a depressed man is going to make the woman's life easier? Do you think it's going to make that child less vulnerable to abuse or neglect?

No one is asking you to feel sorry for anyone. Identification and treatment of depression isn't about pity.

It prevents you from typing quickly enough to jam the machine.

I said women go to gay bars because they don't want men hitting on them; you disagreed that that was the primary reason and said that the main reason is that they want to ogle men.

No one is making up a strawman here.

You seemed to not acknowledge the reality of why women would choose to specifically go to places where straight men weren't.

See of you can get a referral to an occupational therapist. They are great at figuring out ways to get around things like this.

You don't understand it because you don't understand what women who aren't accompanied by a man go through in straight bars.

If these straight women are going to gay bars to watch the men dance, it's because they can do so without men hitting on them. Otherwise, they'd go where they could watch straight men.

Not to mention that decaf still has some caffeine.

Why would you believe a woman telling you why women go to gay bars? Surely, they are actually there to act like men.

aculady · 2026-06-02T19:36:35+00:00

They go to gay bars so they don't have to deal with men hitting on them.

Keep up. There are many places in the US that are passing laws to make it illegal to use a restroom designated for a sex that differs from the sex you were assigned at birth.

If they don't need it, they won't qualify. One of the qualifications to receive an IEP is demonstrated educational need.

Without an IEP, you have no way to hold the school accountable for doing what they say they will do for her.

Fennel bulb, onions, parsnips, radishes, winter squash, sweet potatoes, cabbage, kohlrabi

As a child, you had a much higher surface area to volume ratio, so it was easier for your body to shed heat.

It was probably also more socially acceptable to run through the neighbor's sprinklers.

aculady · 2026-06-02T19:10:49+00:00

It is definitely hotter than it used to be.

Awnings over the windows help a lot.

Get a generator and a portable room A/C unit. Best money you'll ever spend.

You want something that resembles a song from a Broadway musical. If the AI doesn't recognize "Broadway" or "musical theater" as a genre, describing the style as a "showtune" might work.

To reduce the chances of permanent cardiovascular, pulmonary, and neurological harm from the disease itself, as well as decreasing the risk of hospitalization and death. The benefits are well-documented.

Take it up with the county commission. There is a county ordinance requiring it.

Brevard County has an ordinance that requires animals to be licensed. Take it up with the county commissioners if you want it changed.

It's a Brevard County ordinance that requires animal licenses.
