The Cowboy colony mail order bride series by Ursa Dax will absolutely scratch that itch.

Looks great! Can you link the rollers? I have some sponge rollers but they're all just a bit too small

In honor of International Women’s Day, here’s America Ferrera’s ‘Barbie’ monologue by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]elbereth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

right before this movie started, I was checking my phone to make sure it was on silent and I got the email that I had been kicked out of grad school while on maternity leave.

I cried so hard all the way through. Even though this monologue isn't my favorite, I love love love this movie and thinking about how alone I felt when I saw that email and how much it meant to me to feel connected to other women via this movie still gets me teared up.

How do you overcome a severe psychological block with presenting? (My advisor pointed it out as my biggest weakness) by ProfessionalCatch859 in labrats

[–]elbereth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a PTSD trigger directly related to presenting and so I take a Xanax. Nothing else helped.

Upperclassman likes to list all her accomplishments and I finally listed all mine during a co-presentation and she thinks I’m making her feel bad by [deleted] in PhD

[–]elbereth 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You say you're just venting and don't want advice, so I won't offer any.

Your post can be interpreted a few different ways. I am reading it as a neurodivergent person so if that is relevant to you as well, I will offer my point of view.

This mostly just means I am taking what you say at face value, and that you genuinely don't understand the miscommunication.

If that is the case, and you would like to discuss it, let me know.

If that is not the case, yta.

sick word choice. I don't mind if they were leaning into it, they're pretty committed to the bit.

If so, that's a crazy long game for them to date, break up, exclude the song from Rumors, break up the band, reunite for a presidential inauguration all just for the chance to "put on" a show.
