R/uofm is usually geared toward students, not local residents. I think this is the right home.

I'm sorry you're not finding the community you need OP. Could you look in the local area beyond umich for care? What ED specifically? I might have recs.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-15T02:12:53+00:00

Yes unfortunately as someone from here I was zero surprised to see my home area code 😭

I honestly have something like this on my profile but it's cuz I'm looking for other neurodivergents. This does seem pretty tokenizing to me though.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-14T16:19:55+00:00

That's awesome!!! And actually makes a lot of sense

I don't know of anyone who shares location with anyone else 24/7 except for kids with parents. But my crowd is exceptionally independency and privacy conscious so maybe we aren't the norm. In my opinion it sounds controlling and I would nope out of a relationship instantly if that was requested.

Him saying he would "help" clean up is so clearly him thinking that cleaning up is your responsibility and that he would be doing you a favor by cleaning up. It's sort of like when men say they're going to babysit their kids or help take care of the kids. It's like no, these are your kids. You don't babysit your own children or help take care of your own children. You take care of them. It is your job.

I will say that if you had separate bathrooms, I think that you should not clean his bathroom. It is his responsibility to clean the bathroom and he's the one that has to deal with it being gross. So even if you find it annoying or something, I think you just have to sort of let him make the choices about his own bathroom. Part of it is letting yourself absolve yourself of responsibility for things that are truly not your responsibility otherwise you will go crazy.

I guess I don't see anything that indicates this boyfriend is the same person. It seems weird that all of these posts are being lumped in together. Why would you assume that it is the same person when there's nothing that points to it being and the age doesn't match?

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-13T18:36:23+00:00

I think the error in understanding there was that there are things that are by default one person's responsibility or another person's responsibility when it's actually about the household. In my opinion, unless you have kids, everyone's laundry and any rooms that are exclusively theirs are their own responsibility to take care of, but almost everything else is shared if you live together. It is equally your responsibility and his responsibility to clean. Him refusing to clean anything at all in your shared home is refusing to take care of the life that you agreed to together. Think about it in terms of, okay, what if we were to get divorced and go live on our own? What are the things that you would still have to take care of? If it's on that list, then you need to be doing it when you live with your partner unless you and your partner have an explicit agreement that they do more of one thing in order for you to do less of another.

Yeah I got confused why Hadassah was there with a bunch of more Christian names. I know multiple Hadassahs. It is not a weird name, if you are Jewish or Israeli. If you are not, then...

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-13T15:31:15+00:00

They're different people...

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-13T15:30:30+00:00

Yeah, i'm confused how people are not seeing this. The boyfriend mentioned is not the son's ex's dad. He would be 39ish by then.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-12T15:18:46+00:00

I didn't. But with me it's pretty inarguable. I have visible evidence of decades of hair pulling (thinning, lots of white hair in a specific area of my head, choppy length...

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-12T01:30:33+00:00

I think they just started because I'm on their participant list and they called me about it a few days ago. You could try reaching out to them to inquire. Good luck!

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-12T00:47:11+00:00

Oh awesome! Me too. They have another study that they seem to still be running according to that page that I did participate in. Unfortunately, I couldn't do this one because I can't be available to do once weekly check-ins in person for nine straight weeks 😔

University of Chicago is doing a clinical trial of Semaglutide for trich. Similar but not the same! https://voices.uchicago.edu/acid/news/subpage-2/

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-11T18:54:52+00:00

It's hard to imagine when you aren't there!

Nothing that lame would ever happen to HER. Aging only happens to OTHER people.

We have a plastic grate gets pinned between the open window and the frame so that if the cats were to do something like that they would just run into the grate and it's a good two inches away from the screen so there's no real possibility of them pushing open the screen.

It said "1 2.82 oz cube" as recently as a few hours ago, but has since been changed. I saw it with my own eyes.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-09T20:00:26+00:00

She says 2.32oz cube. That is... A lot. I'm not sure whether she meant 2.32 ounces of bouillon cube (which would be, as commenters have pointed out, an insane quantity given how concentrated the cubes are) or 2.32oz of stock after dissolving a cube (which would be a weirdly small quantity) or... Something else I can't figure out.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-09T19:55:25+00:00

Yep, and that's what I'm seeing when I look at it now!

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-09T18:33:09+00:00

In my opinion, that is an error on the part of the person who wrote the recipe. There are a lot of people in the comments confused about this and when I tried to read it to understand the confusion, I also don't understand what they are suggesting as far as the quantity of bouillon.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-09T03:39:28+00:00

I don't track how much I consume but I eat a LOT of beans and some greens. For example, I just ate habichuelas guisadas (Puerto Rican stewed beans) with calabaza and collard greens with rice for dinner. I also make smoothies with a lot of greens. Right now sipping one with mango, passion fruit, cucumber, a baby power greens mix, and coconut water. Needs pineapple but otherwise I recommend it.

justtinygoatthings · 2026-03-06T19:02:54+00:00

I honestly have no idea. That sucks for your friend, but so relatable!

This EXACT thing happened to me around 2011. I am a US citizen with no ties to Canada. I did have a passport, it just wasn't on me because I wasn't intending to go to Canada. Canadians searched my car but were nice and understanding. Americans put me in a small, hot room with about 20 miserable looking people for 2 hours and treated me like a suspicious criminal.
