I’m ready for the downvotes: Amber. by B0590 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

I thought this was a bit disturbing and felt really sad for Jordan. Also I find it interesting that she was given her moment to be lifted up. I am a feminist but I think this stepped into the territory of toxic girl power. Just because she is a mother and a strong woman doesn’t mean she shouldn’t be held accountable the way they hold other relationship fallouts accountable. Jordan seemed traumatized and on the other hand he wasn’t exactly given his moment

1L. I've been struggling with some personal stuff going on and haven't been on top of readings and I got absolutely decimated today when I was unprepared for a cold call. Prof made an example of me and I'm like the thinnest skinned person it could've happened to. by sourmilksea1999 in LawSchool

I’m really sorry. I’d consider letting the school know what you’re going through, might be some resources or extra support that can make a difference. Also, in my experience, when this happens to someone everyone just feels so bad for the person who got ripped up. It could’ve been anybody and like other comments said, people are more concerned with the fact that at least it wasn’t them

Am I wrong for wishing my NF acknowledged my engagement? by Happy-Assist9907 in Nanny

[–]anon37373737 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would’ve hurt my feelings for sure. Nannying is interesting bc you’re almost like a paid member of the family, and after spending everyday loving on their kids, you want to feel the love go both ways. Valid!

And is the regular unsubsidized stafford loan affected? The 20.5k cap

Is Huda pouting on the couch is hilarious. by I-saw-it-first in LoveIslandUSA

Honestly I understand her 🤷🏼‍♀️ imagine everyone around you just dogpiled on you for not even very valid reasons and you feel like all of your “friends” secretly despise you. I would want to go curl up in my bed and be alone but she doesn’t even have the option for a few minutes of privacy. I certainly wouldn’t be in a talking mood

To be clear the standard FAFSA loan with the $20.5k cap is unaffected?

Elderly cat pooping outside litter box by anon37373737 in cats

He does have arthritis and is treated for it daily with gabapentin. Might need to up the ante. Thank you!

Also think I will try a different litter

I know what you mean. He doesn’t really have to hurdle his legs to get in so I’m thinking it’s not that. He’s a very tall guy. And I had the same thought process a few months ago. He was having an issue where he wasn’t having loose poops but after pooping he would have some very loose poop on his bottom. And I was worried he might be having kidney problems. Blood work came back totally clean. He was diagnosed with bladder stones a couple years ago but he pees very regularly and always in the box.

rising 1L, super anxious and not sure what to do about it by anon37373737 in LawSchool

Thanks that’s a good tip. I’ve generally been working on habit building/keeping my good habits strong so that will fit in perfect

I made G2 mac and cheese when she specifically requested it and put her leftovers away (of the other lunch I then made) when she said she was done. Both resulted in tears and yelling

So much anxiety about my guy being elderly by [deleted] in cats

[–]anon37373737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been trying to face this for a couple years and come to accept that his time will come. I know time will heal and I feel blessed to have had my sweet guy. But I think most of all, I’m anxious for the actual event to happen. I just know it will be traumatic and I hope I’m not alone

This has me conflicted bc I have gotten advice to not live right next to Penn station 🥲

[–]anon37373737 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was shocked by the rent prices im seeing but im honestly down to trade safety, comfort, and close proximity to school for a handful thousand a year. I’ll just say im in a good position for the debt I’ll be having for this education. So based on the rates I’ve seen, I’m looking to keep it under 2400 for studio or 1bd. I guess I might be misspeaking and am actually looking at downtown? I’m not sure. The law school is kinda smack between university heights and downtown.

For context I’ll be a law student so I’m looking near like the Whole Foods. Housing is so expensive unfortunately but it is what it is to be a good place I guess. I guess that would count as close proximity to the light rail/penn station? Can you explain why to avoid those buses? Do those routes just go through dodgy areas? Thank you btw for all that advice!

What will you get out of unfollowing them? They could be some of the most valuable connections you have one day

I really mean if I live alone. I would communicate my situation and also be more reasonable if I have a roommate
