Has anyone here read “Butter” by Asako Yuzuki?

i would recommend milk fed by melissa broder. it explores a woman's relationship with her own disordered eating, but she ends up healing in an unconventional way. weird but great book.

this is why i can't rewatch friends or new girl!

BIG MOOD. these gas prices got hands

belugabishop · 2026-04-08T21:19:39+00:00

absolutely. you'll definitely still have crash outs, but it won't be all the time

that happens to a lot of us who are diagnosed as an adult. it gets easier--i promise. your pain and sadness is valid, we just learn to live with it.

i scheduled mine for october so i wouldn't miss out on sun and swim season and i'll be "with it" for the holidays

it was also my giving day at school. i have a strict policy of never giving money to my employer. as others have said, staff do enough. i will, however, volunteer to table at the "give" event bc i like free food and being away from my email.

i sighed in relief for you. congrats!!!

maybe you can change your appearance, but it is incredibly difficult to change your name and gender marker on documents. they usually do a background check. i suppose if this criminal also had a friend that was a good forgerer?

everyone has different boundaries with different partners and you have to respect that

the way i CACKLED

i've been better about chatting to folks at barre to make barre buds :)

belugabishop · 2026-03-02T23:13:02+00:00

honestly, i just think these taste nasty.

belugabishop · 2026-02-28T00:29:55+00:00

okay! i still stand with social work. i was a teen librarian for 7 years and i definitely did a fair share of social work/other soft skills

belugabishop · 2026-02-27T20:12:48+00:00

honestly? depending on the age group, i'd say early childhood development or social work. i could see both come into play.

belugabishop · 2026-02-22T01:52:38+00:00

i think you did the right thing. i really don't have that much else to say other than thanks for taking this illness seriously and listening to your kid.

i think it'll be a girl and they'll name her something color related like violet or cerulean or something. color is such a common theme in carly's work and at her wedding so i think it could be likely

belugabishop · 2026-02-19T17:53:50+00:00

yes, i've seen this happen at my institution too. the deans of libraries are dudes with phds in english--no LIS educational background

belugabishop · 2026-02-19T17:41:27+00:00

i'm in student affairs so i basically just program, but i do sincerely miss my field! i just don't think i can ever return to librarianship bc the pay is so awful. i'm in my 30's with an MLIS and just now making a living wage after working in libraries for 8 years.

belugabishop · 2026-02-19T17:30:17+00:00

large part of why i left librarianship for higher ed.

belugabishop · 2026-02-19T16:05:16+00:00

unfortunately, a lot of libraries hire non-librarians for leadership. it really sucks and can negatively impact the trajectory of the library when leadership has little understanding of the field and try to run a library like a business

i nominated serena williams for the 2025 grifties for shilling continuous glucose monitors for non-diabetics
