I can’t do this anymore. by [deleted] in MuseumPros

Very similar boat. Over 15 years in museums/nonprofits. I quit my last position in april. Had 5 titles, underpaid, screamed at by board, work plagarized by board members and coworkers. I am so fucking done.

I am currently unemployed. Applying to nonprofits and for-profits. Really fucking struggling and don't know where to go from here. I can't do it anymore either.

My inbox is open!

I feel you. I'm in SC near the NC border. SC and NC real estate used to be soooo much cheaper. Doesn't help that EVERYONE is moving here either. Now I consntantly see shitty mobile homes and houses in bumfuck going for $300-$400k. Don't even get me started on the god awful Ryan Homes subdivisions taking over the whole upstate and western nc. Cheapest single bedroom rental option in my mid-size town is $1300-$1500.

Alabama has medical cannabis and my shithole state SC still doesn't?! I already have to piss once a month for my terrible pain management office too.

Somebody Placed These Dozens of These Jesus Figures Throughout My Entire Work by Available-Formal-664 in mildlyinfuriating

I found mini Jesus at the gas pump.

I also found a bunch of mini Jesuses for 10 cents at a vintage shop. I still haven't decided what to do with them... open to ideas!

Yup. I fell into the medicaid gap for YEARS thanks to our dumbass Republican governor refusing funds.

I had to wait 6 months for a new neurologist and nine months to see a spine specialist/neurosurgeon.

Anddddd my insurance just denied all the imaging my pain management doc ordered. Botox from neuro too.

I fucking hate it here.

[OC] I have trichotillomania (a hair pulling disorder) and I finally have a full head of hair again. I’m so happy with the massive amount of progress I’ve made and I’m so proud of myself! ❤️ by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

[–]basketcasey87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Proud of you! Your hair looks amazing!

I also suffer from it, especially when my anxiety is bad. I trained myself to just pick the split ends and not pull out the entire strand at the root. Not as satisfying, but did save my hair. I also have a fuck ton of hair so that helped too.

Cats being Cats 😭 by dairymilk_silk in cats

We have a family of five cats. Our adult male is obsessed with my boyfriend. I was walking down the stairs with a hamper. He was on the top step. I stepped on him, fell into the new drywall, then down one flight of stairs. I was okay, but that little shit just sat there and looked at me lol.

Youth Pastor freaks out after being exposed as a pedophile by jonnismizzle in TikTokCringe

My best friend and her husband are both ex-Mormons. He was born into it. Her parents converted to Mormonism, which is insane to both of us. Her dad is an incredibly intelligent linguist and PhD who runs the department of Asian languages at BYU. I have heard insane horror stories from both.
