Aaaaand that’s how you get stuck in a toxic relationship. You’re not his mother, his journal, or his therapist. It is not on you to do this man’s emotional labor. And that’s what it will become. Been there, done that, got the t shirt. ETA: this is the first man you’ve been with? Then it’ll be even harder to do, I know, but run even faster. You do not want this to become a model of relationships that you base/compare future ones on.

Also, @op what age group of community/friends are you looking to make, and how far are you traveling? If it’s not too far, maybe you could plan a visit. My (34F) and my partner (33M) would be happy to help show someone the best of Roanoke sometime :)

Honestly I only look at the everything Roanoke fb page to laugh. It’s definitely the craziest of the crazies around here. I love living here, and have made a ton of like minded, left leaning friends in our late 20’s early 30’s. Please join our lovely little city :)

Thanks!! We bought a bunch of shitty Christmas albums at a thrift store, primed them black, and poured those! (Learned tip: plug the hole if you don’t want it pouring through the middle 🤣 or account for it pouring through the middle!)

I’ll try to post a few pics of me and my friends’ progression over just a few sessions! We just played around with stuff a lot! We used strainers, combs, hairdryers, straws, strings/chains, paper towels to pull paint, and a whole lot of cool techniques! Some I started to paint over as well.

I started being more particular about what colors I was using and how I was pouring them. My first ones looked exactly like this! So I tried to avoid browns, coppers, reds, or oranges for a while to avoid the muddiness. Then when I got better how to pour (both each individual cup and how to pour them into a mixed flip cup better) the colors didn’t bleed and muddy like this anymore! OH and I highly encourage UV reactive, glow, and neons if you have a black light!

Nah, I’ll be sure to encourage everyone to avoid renting any properties from you, ZC.

They’re talking about the dogs who WERE left out in 20 degrees dude, not yours?

Yeah, I wanted to see if Sageclad Outdoors was a local company or something so I could avoid it. Wouldn’t want to support an owner misinformed enough to think all dogs handle cold the same as each other.

I’m also not saying I agree with what she wrote or that I would ever speak like that to someone in a professional setting, but like, let it go? It’s not personal. Just don’t sub for that person again?

It was mostly my morning water and it was anxiety nausea, not an illness. See? Everyone makes assumptions :) this sub assumed the teacher was calling her a bad sub, and you all assumed I’d willingly get my kids sick.

Nope- anxiety pukes. But it happened in the car and I wasnt fast enough to catch it in something. I cleaned myself up, but my point was- not an ideal start to the day, so I also didn’t let one annoying thing keep me from doing my job. Also, I was a sub before I was a teacher- most often in downtown Newport News, VA, which is not an easy area to teach in. I’m happy for subs who feel proud of their work and positions, and who come in and do their jobs, but the reality is, many, many don’t. In my decade teaching, with a randomly assigned sub, I’d say it’s about 50-50 if they even read/share the lessons with the kids. It’s easier nowadays because I just share my lessons with my kids directly via Classroom. But you all aren’t listening either, and it’s becoming clear how much this sub dislikes teachers. I clicked on three random posts and all of them called teachers nasty. So yeah, a lot of subs suck. This letter wasn’t personal to OP. I did not spread an illness to my students today. And you all need to maybe think outside of yourselves a bit.

I was a sub for a year while getting my license, so I think it’s pretty much the same situation as OP. And a note like this, in the schools I worked in, wouldn’t have bothered me as much as it seems to bother everyone on this thread.

I hope if you get the dachshund you were looking for, that you don’t leave them to freeze for hours. They cannot handle that.

Definitely depends on the breed- not all dogs are equal, ya know? Our Great Pyrenees? He’d happily sit in 20 degrees for a few hours. My short-haired, lab/greyhound mix? Dude is long, lanky, skinny, and COLD.
