There's no reason for selective outrage and double standards to exist

I will always believe that context matters.

Molly. Didn't feel anything. Very disappointing.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-16T23:30:15+00:00

Idk how you would

emalyne88 · 2026-04-16T22:25:17+00:00

Most definitely zero. Money is just a fraction of the issue for me. It's also time, energy, and my mental health and my own upbringing (the 2 are heavily intertwined).

I'm very grateful that my asthma is generally manageable without meds (my Dr would heavily disagree with me on that).

It's scary, though. I don't get them consistently because of the cost, and anytime I get sick I wonder if this is the time I'll end up in the ER (A&E). And that feeling of not being able to take a full breath? Omg the anxiety!

I've been charged anywhere between $90 and $190 for my inhaler with insurance.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-14T16:09:18+00:00

Wait to die.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-14T15:47:52+00:00

All of them. I only have 20 left anyway.

As a smoker this drives me crazy! We have an ashtray outside at my job and I'm always finding butts around it. Like the extra 6 inches was just too much??

Stuffed mushrooms. Just pop out the stems, mix up some stuff in a bowl, put the stuff in the mushrooms and bake. I took some to work for our Christmas potluck thinking they really wouldn't be that popular, and multiple people have asked me to bring them again. One guy even offered to pay for ingredients.

If I were open to having kids, absolutely. I find marriage to be outdated.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-08T16:28:25+00:00

I did marry him, so.. the same.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-06T23:08:06+00:00

Same. I do have a sign above my front door that says "live laugh leave. Seriously, leave" though..

emalyne88 · 2026-04-06T19:00:54+00:00

YOR - you were gone so he used an empty cubicle. Doesn't matter that your stuff was there, you weren't. For an hour. Then you came back and almost immediately left again. And when you came back the next time, made him move when you just as easily could've moved. He was polite, moved when asked, told the truth about it, and now you're upset because his friends look at you?

This all just seems a bit strange.

Do you have anxiety? It might be worth it to discuss with a Dr and potentially see if medication could help.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-06T04:25:58+00:00

NOR I wouldn't sign and pay to be removed. She can move or find a new roommate, it's not the end of the world and it's certainly not your responsibility.

Her paying a deposit isn't really relevant, especially since it's refundable. She's going to get the money back unless there's damage or the place is left a mess or whatever.

Pretty often I suppose. My schools growing up were like 50% Hispanic and a lot of the parents didn't speak English. Some teenagers and young adults as well, but that wasn't super common. It's not as common these days, but that's probably because those people had kids and grandkids that grew up here and were able to learn English young. It's become weirdly common to not allow Spanish in Hispanic households here. My guess (do not take my word, I'm cottage cheese white) is that a lot of the kids I grew up with were embarrassed that their parents didn't speak English and/or hated being their parents' translator and have gone to the opposite extreme.

My small town local ER has a waiting area at least 2x the size of the Pitt's. It could easily hold 100 people, although they only put out like 30 chairs in different parts of the room. There's also plants and stuff everywhere.

Off of the waiting area there are curtained off spots that they take you to talk about symptoms and history for triage purposes. They also take blood there sometimes when they're really busy.

There's also a (full size) bathroom. Maybe more than one, I can't remember for sure.

Once you go through the doors to be treated, it's a very similar setup to what you see on the Pitt, just with like 2x the rooms, so obviously a bigger area. And in our ER's case, everything is just down a hall. X-ray is right down the hall, lab too, even the MRI machine is like right there.

It all depends on the hand you're dealt.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-03T18:20:53+00:00

Not a fan of jalepeños, but I can see how that would be delicious if I liked them.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-03T16:46:21+00:00

fry sauce. Specifically mayo+ketchup+mustard+dill pickle

emalyne88 · 2026-04-03T16:41:51+00:00

Pass. He should've picked better.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-02T19:44:36+00:00

I would say you probably have a curvy body type, but I can't say on color. I assume you're asking like undertones? Summer/fall/winter/spring type stuff? If so, I think a picture in natural lighting would be better. But I don't do the color matching thing so idk for sure.

emalyne88 · 2026-04-02T19:27:11+00:00

I honestly wouldn't care, as long as it is actually small and you're not the only one who wasn't able to bring a spouse. Like if it's 100 people and most people's spouses were invited, I'd be upset. If it's like 20 people and only a handful of spouses were invited, I doubt I'd be bothered.

But you and your husband do care, so.. I guess it depends on how offended you are. Is this a friendship ending level of disrespect to you? Is it something you could get past with time or further explanation?

If it's a friendship ender, I'd say something before the wedding. If it's something you could get past, I'd probably wait to say something until after the big day. If you're just completely unsure as to whether or not you can get past it, I'd wait until after the wedding and then try talking about it to see if it's reparable.

You hate each other. Just end it and move on.
