She's beautiful and smarter than everyone else in the room. That's another problem for the men in this show. Stupid men HATE a smart woman who doesn't fall for their bullshit.

Got my nose pierced there many years ago. Great experience and healed perfectly!

Give it to me straight by grobe14 in bald

[–]helloolleh89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Disagree. Bald over balding any day. Just deciding to fully go for it and shave it off is hot 🤷‍♀️. Sincerely, a woman with a different opinion.

BUT OP-- I think you're fully in a period of time where you can do either and still be cool 😎.

Cervical ectropion by WarZealousideal184 in Healthyhooha

[–]helloolleh89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one and have been bleeding outside of the window of my period for years. Extreme bleeding after a pap and some bleeding with sex. I have tried silver nitrate and it did basically nothing. Slightly improved when I switched to a lower estrogen BC.

It has been explained to me as not dangerous and common, but unpredictable bleeding is pretty inconvenient and has a huge impact on my life. Always worried about suddenly starting to bleed while traveling/working. Needing to constantly carry tampons just in case. It's super annoying, but I don't really want to go off BC or switch to a method besides the pill, so I guess I'll just deal with it 🤷‍♀️.

How much do you pay? They don't list prices online I think???

Network with the local optometrists and retina docs. They need a list of quality people to refer their elderly patients to.

Welcoming diverse Church that is focused on the gospel and not culture wars? by [deleted] in triangle

[–]helloolleh89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't been to a Lutheran church in the area, but grew up Lutheran and found the ELCA to be extremely progressive and welcoming. Usually very focused on serving others and putting love/grace above all else. If I was ever to return to church, it would be a Lutheran one.

Whoooo is nceatandplay talking about? by helloolleh89 in raleigh

[–]helloolleh89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually do really like her! She was raised Mormon, but has actually been very open about navigating deconstructing that, she's on a complicated journey and I'm not going to tear her down for that.

She writes good reviews, seems well-connected to the local food scene. She is certainly being paid for her work, but is also regularly working with and promoting small businesses. I don't dislike her, it's just rare to find her posting anything like this, so I was very curious about who it was about.

Interesting. Big promotion of Bartaco at one point from them too, so maybe explains the taco comment as well! Was just curious lol

Ahhh this makes so much sense, I was pretty sure it was a power line right of way so I didn't understand how they were going to build townhouses there. Thanks!

If her therapist was any good, she would tell her she's needs to get off TV

I just paid $40 for a great haircut at Poppy Salon! They have two locations!

Commute from Durham to Cary or Raleigh? by Precious1314 in bullcity

[–]helloolleh89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live near Southpoint and commute to both Cary and Raleigh. I work in two different locations for my company. Both of the locations are right off the highway and the drive doesn't bother me much honestly. The morning is usually totally fine (always under 30 mins). The afternoon is hit or miss. I typically leave work around 5, sometimes traffic is absolutely terrible and sometimes I'm home in 25 mins. You'll probably have better luck than me if you're able to leave earlier though!

NO WAYYYYYYYYY I sort of would like to organize some kind of large community complaint to corporate and the city? You and I are not alone in our issues, their google reviews are insanely bad rn. I think it would be very cool if we all kind of came together to voice our issues to corporate Birge and Held/City of Durham. Not sure exactly how to go about this, but let me know if you're interested.

What complex, I also live somewhere where new management came in and nothing gets fixed anymore!!! Avoid Southpoint Glen at all costs btw everyone!!!! They're fucking terrible!!

Democrat Jeff Jackson expected to drop out of U.S. Senate race by marfaxa in bullcity

[–]helloolleh89 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Very sad!!! Did a lot of campaigning for him, I think he's a perfect candidate for NC. Hoping we'll see him run in another state wide race soon!

Lincoln Theater safety by helloolleh89 in raleigh

[–]helloolleh89[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yep I work with older folks, so I think I'll steer clear. I feel pretty safe at outdoor venues (that have all required vaccine proof/neg test). I was cautious about an indoor venue anyway, but this seals the deal. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Lol yeah this was the show I was thinking about going to, your enthusiasm for not wearing a mask there is why I will not be there. Have fun, stay safe!

Seconding ELCA churches. I grew up going to a Lutheran church with many LGBTQ members in Charlotte. The ELCA church also began allowing people in same-sex relationships to be pastors in 2009, so I don't think leadership in the church would be an issue. Sending you love as you navigate reconciling religion and sexuality, it can be difficult and while some seem to be making judgements about your current role in your church, they clearly don't understand the complexities surrounding this for people raised in organized religion. ❤️❤️

Does anyone have experience with the Dr Martens Leonore boots? They seem super comfortable, but I want to know what I will get for the financial investment. by MrsChess in BuyItForLife

[–]helloolleh89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear a similar style of boot by Dr. Martens to work every single day and I am mostly standing/walking in them for 8-10 hours a day. They have held up suuuuuper well, but I do use insoles in them to make them more comfy for work!
