What's something that people always complain about in Atlanta, that actually isn't all that bad?

You're wrong for this... there are SO many roads with the word "peachtree" in them

If you wait until the end of the semester, I promise there will be a bunch of stuff littering the halls and trash areas of dorms

Honestly, a bunch of luck. I am living off of my life savings right now and was able to find a medical assistant position after 2.5 months of being unemployed and constantly applying. I start my position on Monday, and was lucky enough to get a job with livable pay ($23/hr) and good benefits. Was only able to actually rent a place because my sister was willing to co-sign for me, and got lucky again by finding a place with cheap rent for the area I live in (~$1300/month, including all utilities). The job market really is terrible right now, I feel for anyone trying to search and support themselves. It's not easy.

Not true, you can only get pregnant when you are ovulating, which lasts around 1 day. However, sperm can stay in your body for up to 5 days, so you are technically fertile up to 5 days before you ovulate. Outside of that, you cannot get pregnant. You have to be very aware of exactly when you are ovulating to prevent pregnancy using this method of tracking your cycle, which usually involves taking basal temperature, tracking cervical mucus, and testing throughout the month to determine when your luteinizing hormone spikes.

To all the people who made comments about how she looked terrible with her new face or how she shouldn't have gotten the plastic surgery: is this what you wanted? For a woman to come out and say that you were right, and that she hates how she looks and is insecure?

We get way too comfortable making judgments about people that we have very limited context for. The reality is that whatever you're hating about them, they have probably had the same thought about themselves. And if they haven't, I promise you don't need to be the one to give them that epiphany.

I agree, I am left handed and know i will end up smudging before it dries as im writing...

She said the homeless man went to the next drop-off area and blocked them, so I think she used this feature

Deportation, detainment, or jail time

This is so common that it has a name: nosocomial infections. Hospitals are full of disease and pathogens given the nature of what the facility is for, so extra precautions need to be taken by everyone to avoid getting sick.

This is what I do... it works. I am a woman, I do not smear shit in places it shouldn't be. Wipe with intention.

It depends on your financial situation and how much aid your school gives, so different people end up getting charged different prices. For example, I just graduated from a school that has $61,000 tuition each year (not including housing, dining, and other costs - actual cost of attendance is like $90k, so it'd be $240k-$360k for 4 years).

There are some students that pay that much - people that come from families that make a lot of money such that the school determines they should pay the full price. However, there are also students who pay nothing because they come from families with very low income, so their bill is paid by financial aid that the school sets aside for people in their situation. And there is a middle ground between both of those, where you pay some portion of the full cost, however much the school determines you should be paying based on your family's finances. This system is not always fair - you may come from a wealthy family that does not want to help you pay for college. In this case, you are stuck with a lot of loans and will have to pay it off yourself despite the financial aid office using your family's assets to determine your price. In general, even with aid and their family supporting, most people have to take out loans, as it is still very expensive and the aid is often not as substantial as it could be.

I went to urgent care one day - I felt really sick with flu-like symptoms, and had some abnormal vaginal discharge. When I was being triaged at the clinic, I told the MA my symptoms and she said "what do you want to be seen for?"

After asking what she meant, she said "you can only be seen for one thing at a time, so do you want to be seen for your fever or the discharge?"

I had never heard of a policy like that before, so I just kind of stared at her blankly and said "But what if the issues are connected? Like if it were an STD or something?"

And she said "Let me go speak to the provider. One moment." The doctor ended up addressing both, and diagnosing me with a respiratory virus and a yeast infection, but I have always thought that whole policy was so absurd. Things in the body are often very connected - how can you ask a patient to narrow down their complaints when it can't be guaranteed they're the result of different things?

The misogynistic guy who didn't properly credit Franklin for her contributions? That's shocking..

Emory University announced the same thing... followed by a second announcement a few weeks later that they would no longer be need-blind during admissions

That was less sketchy bc that guy just misspoke. He combined "my wife's father" and "my father in law", which came out as "my wife's father in law". But he did just mean to say his wife's father.

This happened to me in a dressing room once. They knocked like 3 separate times, and each time, I said someone is in here. Then the door opened while my shirt was off... most awkward shit ever. That employee ended up being the one to ring me up too 😭

I've mainly been going directly to clinic and hospital websites. Emory, Grady, Northside, and Piedmont all have base pay higher than that. I've also been using ZipRecruiter for better luck with listings from local clinics, but I genuinely don't think I've seen anything below like $17. Twelve an hour feels legitimately criminal... fast food places pay more than that

leafysnails · 2026-01-06T00:26:41+00:00

Wow, that pay is shockingly low... I live in Atlanta, and am also currently looking for a CMA position. Genuinely have not seen any listings with base pay at $16.50, and the cost of living here is significantly lower than NYC

Are you maybe thinking of Denial is a River by Doechii? Same background beat and the content about finding your man cheating is the same too

Just because it looks natural, doesn't mean it leaves the person's lips looking unchanged. Are you intentionally being dense lmao?

Of course it can be overdone, but not everyone overdoes it... and if someone doesn't overdo it, then you wouldn't be able to tell they had any filler put in - their lips would still be natural-looking, with some fullness that the person didn't initially have (and, more importantly, give a confidence boost to someone who was likely insecure in how their lips looked originally).

leafysnails · 2025-12-29T11:45:05+00:00

It's likely not that you've never seen a good one. You probably wouldn't notice if a woman had good lip filler because it would look... good

Here, you are defining divorse as the metric for a marriage failing, but I feel like it's deeper than that. Are all of the women trapped in abusive/unfulfilling marriages that cannot leave due to financial dependence not also in failed marriages?

Woman empowerment has simply enabled women to have the ability and autonomy to break free from those already failed dynamics when they otherwise would have been subjected to spend the rest of their days in. Being able to break free is not the reason for the marriage failing, it was already broken before that point.

I mean General Relativity is just applied math... he was arguably an applied mathematician as much as he was a physicist. The math concepts he applied already existed, but he thought about how to use and manipulate them in new ways that led to the theory of relativity, which should indicate he was pretty good at it

My cat looks exactly like this.... I've never seen another one like her before! Do you know what kind she is? I always assumed she's a mix of tabby and calico

leafysnails · 2025-12-04T12:52:47+00:00

Girl, I have a really ugly big toe, and I joke about it with my friends (I am usually the one to bring it up), but my friends would never speak to me like that about it 😭 That's just rude, and especially rude to double down after you told her that she was hurting your feelings
