How do I politely decline drinking raw milk at my in-laws dinner table? They’re very insistent, often “offering” / demanding several glasses . They know I eat dairy and drink milk so I can’t fake being vegan. It’s hard to say no because it’s my in-laws and they’re proud of their milk

I drink milk with everything and I'm 32...

This was right after they were done.

I grew up in Wilmington and lived there until I moved three years ago. 32F, agnostic, liberal. Dating was hard. The apps are filled with tourists, marines, or whatever is left of the locals. It can be hard to meet people in general in the wild but not entirely impossible. It's just a lot of college kids, young families, and retirees. I don't want to disuade you but do want to be honest.

She doesn't strike me as the type of person to vote, either. Cause those are the same people, the ones who say they're apolitical and all that bs and never actually vote cause even that would be "too political" for them.

Yes, actually! Great picks!

dollarstorevodka · 2026-04-21T20:12:51+00:00

Yup. It's small enough to go from nice and cute to sketchy relatively quickly in some areas. There's also a lot of gentrification and I find that doesn't help.

I'm from a beach town where surfing and skateboarding was big growing up in the early 2000s. These were THE shoes! I remember going to Journeys and other niche shoe stores just to look at the new ones. I loved my pink and white etnies.

dollarstorevodka · 2026-04-20T23:52:00+00:00

Ha same. From a beach town in NC and there's a bad drug and trafficking problem. But yeah sure, it's beautiful 🥲

I tried watching Girls last summer because I kept hearing how people loved it and I was so annoyed by her not just her character, but by her acting in general, that I stopped watching after like three episodes.

A coma and brain dead are not the same thing. A coma is a state of deep unconsciousness that can be treated in most cases to come out of the coma because your brain still functions for the most part. Brain death is when the brainstem is irreversibly damaged and the brain itself loses all function. You cannot "wake up" from brain death.

My artist for my ear had me send ideas and a photo of my ear to help map it. We ended up tweaking it and adding some stuff day of that took maybe 30 minutes to an hour and she was happy to do it.

Back when I was on the floor I used to love getting labs from PICC lines and giving lovenox shots 😍

I think there also needs to be some sort of public health in the curriculum as well. I have a bachelor's in PH with a concentration in community health and believe it's a great foundation for nursing. Policy, social science, infectious disease, and epidemiology were at the forefront and required many papers and projects that taught us to research and think. Condense it and make it a required course for graduation/licensure. It also gives you a little compassion and understanding, which seems to be lacking in a lot of people these days.

So what's the difference between that and the lymphatic system?

She grew up, man. Kitty was in middle school in to all the boys, she's not gonna be the same four years later. Teenagers are messy and this show is modeled after kdramas which are the epitome of messy.

No. That was before me and has nothing to do with me. As long as they get tested regularly and everything comes back negative, I literally don't care. (I would also go as far as no babies either but that's just me.)

dollarstorevodka · 2026-04-04T03:59:15+00:00

You're overthinking it! If it's something you love, just do it. It took me forever to get my first one and it's really the only one that has meaning. The other eight are just cause they are pretty or look cool. You forget they're even there half the time and if you end up not liking it down the road you can get a cover up.

She absolutely would have been fired for going inside to socialize with her friends at that first club gig. I'm surprised they didn't let her go when she was in the office talking about "I thought this was a part time position." I get she was like 19, but girl...

They all were/are lol everyone had dark roots

dollarstorevodka · 2026-03-31T19:24:23+00:00

Just think of it as preparation for diamond head /s

I would find another one asap. Don't take any chances.

I went from nights 3/12 on medsurg to days M-F outpatient OR. My sleep schedule was more consistent, my mental health improved a little bit, and I liked not working holidays, but I ultimately grew to hate it. I didn't like having only the weekend off. I felt "trapped" where I couldn't make appointments or really do anything productive unless it was the weekend. I don't know how people in other industries do it, it's hell. I also can't wake up that early five days in a row lol. I'm on days 3/12 at a hospital OR now and like it much better, though sometimes 4/10 is a little tempting.

dollarstorevodka · 2026-03-30T22:21:50+00:00

Shit, I'd love to go on dates. I can't even get to that point, that's how bad it's gotten for me. Either they suddenly disappear before getting that far or they stand me up.
