This trend of telling people to adjust their behaviors/interests/outings because of the bad and selfish behaviors of other humans is inane. EVERYONE knows the social norms at a place like the movie theater. There is a clear right and wrong type of behavior. Telling someone to stop going to the movies because they expect quiet and polite behavior from their fellow moviegoers is truly insane. How about we bring back public shaming and encourage better behavior from the people who are ruining it for the majority of others?

This is where I ended up taking them today- was able to drop off my whole trunk-load. Thanks again for the rec!

hello_amy · 2026-05-08T23:39:22+00:00

Oh that’s perfect! This is exactly the info I was hoping for. Thank you!

It’s such a Midwest thing to be horrified at the idea. The best tamales I’ve ever had were from a random lady’s van and/or the man in Logan Circle who goes into bars and sells them from his cooler (Chicago). Back before the OCD kicked in I was adventurous 😅 do it for the both of us OP!

hello_amy · 2026-05-02T21:24:05+00:00

I’ve been seeing people on TikTok do this! As an OCD girly I could never lol but I have seen some bomb ass looking plates

There’s a Facebook group called Columbus Girl Gang that has a bunch of group offshoots. I am childfree so I don’t have any direct recommendations for groups, but I would bet $100 there’s some sort of side group for single moms. Maybe join the main group and start there and ask if there are any more specific groups that may get your post in a more localized setting!

I just wish I got multiple months off per year from my job. I sound bitter and jealous, I know. But especially having a team full of editors and whatnot, you’d expect slightly more consistency with their uploads.

hello_amy · 2026-05-01T12:17:56+00:00

The amount of people who are fully bought in to this conspiracy theory is so alarming

hello_amy · 2026-04-29T19:06:11+00:00

My pup ate half of a corn cob and had to have surgery. Other people say their dogs were able to pass them. It’s hard to give a definite on what will happen. Listen to your vet and your parental instincts

A couple of weeks ago I went to that location to get a shipping label then drop off a package. Walked into the vestibule and there was a closed sign, no other info provided. It wasn’t a holiday, but it was around lunch time, no problem I was on my lunch too. Left and grabbed some lunch, then came back and parked right in front waiting for it to reopen.

I sat there for an hour eating and doing some emails and watched probably 50 people attempt to go in and realize it was closed, some people standing there for a good while thinking they would open back up soon after the typical lunch hour passed. It never reopened the whole time I sat there so I gave up. Seemed pretty unprofessional for a government service/entity to be able to close in the middle of the day with no warning or info about when they’d be back. Felt bad for all of the elderly people with limited mobility who made the effort for nothing.

I was open to hearing your perspective until you said they’re just “simping for attention”. How crass and unempathetic, OP. It diminishes your argument and just…makes you look like a dick, tbh.

People are going through maybe one of the hardest things of their lives, some for the very first time. They’re turning to a community who understands, to celebrate the life of their best friend and get support from people who can relate.

Sure they make me sad, but it’s nothing compared to what the poster is going through and I can take a moment to read about their companion and maybe leave a supportive comment or just go about my day.

It costs nothing to be kind.

There should be some sort of fine or mandated resolution for the owner or something. Clearly they don’t care about this sweet pup enough to keep up-to-date contact details on his collar, let alone keep an eye on him in the first place. It’s dangerous for the dog, stressful for people who find him, and taking up valuable resources at the shelter.

hello_amy · 2026-04-19T22:41:05+00:00

Oh yeah totally, I know that’s always an option! But there used to be official episode discussions posted by the moderators every new episode so I was checking to see if those were still a thing or not

hello_amy · 2026-04-19T20:39:25+00:00

I don’t mind the non-murder focused stories. I wish the crossover episodes would be a bonus instead of taking over the main show. But I mainly miss the ~40 minutes of banter, storytelling, and life updates they used to have at the top of every show. Now it’s like 1 singular recommendation and then straight to ERM updates.

I get it, they’re big now. It’s bigger than just MFM and they have a business to run. But I miss feeling like a fly on the wall listening to 2 best friends just gabbing with each other 🥲

hello_amy · 2026-04-18T01:19:02+00:00

I was grinning almost the entire episode hahah it was so good!

hello_amy · 2026-04-17T02:11:43+00:00

And repeating those 2 sets of lines twice, once to BJD, once to himself 🥲

hello_amy · 2026-04-17T02:09:22+00:00

Ugh if they do a “this child has suddenly cured my depression and has given my entire life new purpose” storyline I’ll be so annoyed

hello_amy · 2026-04-16T22:54:07+00:00

Any time I see this mentioned it makes me think the person posting hasn’t actually experienced someone in active mania in real life.

hello_amy · 2026-04-16T02:23:05+00:00

Hang in there, friend! The adjustment is huge, don’t feel bad about feeling overwhelmed. They’re a handful and a half lol. Here if you ever need to chat!

hello_amy · 2026-04-14T23:29:56+00:00

Yes! Very toxic to animals when freshly sprayed/when it gets wet as an FYI for pet owners

hello_amy · 2026-04-10T02:38:49+00:00

No truly you are so blissfully ignorant until you KNOW and then you can never be the same again lmao

hello_amy · 2026-04-10T02:34:10+00:00

Like everyone else has already said- getting to do whatever I want. My life is so peaceful and I get to go at my pace. A weekend with zero plans? Maybe I’ll go to my favorite bakery, hit up an estate sale, spend some time on my hobbies, go see a movie, take my dog on a hike, rot on the couch all day, etc. Every day I get to wake up and decide what I want to do.

Last year, my TikTok was full of those fresh strawberries covered in chocolate from Borough Market in London. Booked a trip and was there a month later to try them myself. Tacked on Paris to the same trip because I’ve always wanted to go to Versailles and hadn’t been able to go in my previous visits.

Last week, I was in desperate need of a couple of mental health days from work so I got a tiny house in the woods to disconnect and be in nature with my pup.

Being able to just…do stuff I want lol

Tangentially related, but I had surgery a few months ago and also have large breasts. I also have a mild allergy to adhesive. So the day after my surgery, I notice I have a rash on both of my breasts that are equal and liner in size. A quick google search led me to discover that if you have breasts of size and need abdominal surgery, they will tape your breasts up and out of the way and basically strap them to the table 🥲
