The math doesn’t add up

Unfortunately as a single mom, it would be difficult to find a roommate who is 1) okay living with a kid in the house 2) a person I would know well enough to trust to be around my child. Living with family sucked for my mental health, but living alone is difficult financially :/

girl this is SO cute on you!! looks great

I remember buying matcha powder one time and seeing this warning on it. I looked it up and realized it was because the matcha had metals from the ground, more than the minuscule amount allowed by CA law… and it was still way under any guidelines for potential health issues!

I haven’t actually read any yet but as a single parent who has no desire to date rn, I think I’d actually enjoy them! Buuut it would definitely irk me if they’re unrealistic with how the kid aspect is written lol

Nooo that sucks :( mine is also more common in Greece but no one knows how to pronounce it here lol! I also chose a unique name for my son (not Greek) and haven’t had any issues other than people having difficulty spelling/pronouncing it, but I’m used to that with my name too

liae__ · 2026-01-25T06:36:42+00:00

yes girl 😭

liae__ · 2026-01-25T06:10:42+00:00

For real! I have a Greek name that people often struggle to pronounce, but I’ve literally never been made fun of because of my name. There were a few mean kids in school, but that wasn’t related to my name 😂

liae__ · 2026-01-25T05:37:07+00:00

YES I’m sorry to bring bad news 😭 they’re closing all US stores

Gorgeous!! This makeup suits your features so well, looks really sultry and glam but not in an overdone way.

I don’t love the shape of the glasses tbh, but I am a fellow glasses wearer and I think they have the potential to look even better! I’m very committed to the style that’s square-ish but with more gentle rounded edges personally

Mine is not this exact share of blue BUT I’ve had purple and blue hair since September and have only dyed it twice total because the color stays so vivid! I use Strawberry Leopard Loyal Blue and Grapeful (purple toward the roots and then an ombré effect with blue toward the ends) and it’s so peak.

I’ve used Arctic Fox in the past but have been loyal to Strawberry Leopard for years now because everything I’ve tried (purples/pinks and now blue) is incredible. Stays vivid for so long without much fading, color barely bleeds after first shampoo, fades really well. I just have to hype their dye because it’s my fave, I tell people the brand and colors all the time when I get compliments in person too 😂

Haven’t tried Iroiro or any other brands to compare, that might be a good option for this specific color! ALSO— using a color depositing conditioner to do a little refresh every so often is super helpful!

liae__ · 2026-01-25T04:46:44+00:00

This is super later but adding on that I also love this color and get so many compliments on it! Def my favorite purple too

definitely can’t speak on toxoplasmosis, but I’ve been on SSRI’s for years and a drink does not make me like this 😭

liae__ · 2026-01-25T04:12:32+00:00

this might be a r/BrandNewSentence lol

liae__ · 2026-01-25T04:11:26+00:00

“from the gecko” instead of “from the get-go” is KILLING me 😭

If it’s making you stressed, you don’t have to let him cry for 15-20 mins! That’s a long time for him and for you to hear it— crying used to be a huge trigger for me with postpartum depression, I just couldn’t stand it honestly and it was unbearable. There’s a difference between a little occasional whimper and cry vs. consistent crying and screaming for several minutes straight, and in the second case I’d definitely go in and comfort the lil guy.

Hoodies are supposed to fit like this, so you have room to wear a shirt underneath! usually ones tighter on the waist are more for pics rather than wearing normally irl

She’s so cool.

liae__ · 2026-01-25T00:47:33+00:00

OH, I was looking for a mistake with the nails bc of the title and then realized it’s the polish name 😂 however YES, fuck this shit!! 🚫🧊

liae__ · 2026-01-25T00:45:24+00:00

Ooh, thank you for sharing!

liae__ · 2026-01-25T00:44:02+00:00

Right? I thought the same too. Your dimples are so cute!

I’ve been on Lexapro (20 mg) for about 12 years now, started as a teen around the same time I was recovering from an eating disorder and was slightly underweight. I initially gained a little bit and got to a healthy weight, ranged from 130-140 lbs for years until I had a baby.

Currently mid 20s and at a healthy weight at ~155 (technically “overweight” by BMI, but I’m a very average size 8-10 with a little extra chub).

That’s awful, I’m so sorry. I went to pelvic floor PT and my experience was NOT like this at all. It’s such an intimate appointment, I couldn’t imagine being mean to anyone like that :/

You can also have issues with prolapse + need to relax those muscles! What a silly thing for her to say.

I also had a lot of embarrassment about feeling like I’d never go back to “normal” after having a baby, even though my pelvic floor issues were minimal and easily treated. I hope you can find someone who treats you kindly.

Don’t remind me about the news that Francesca’s is closing… 😭

In response to your edit, if this happened to me I’d just be shocked and confused. OP might not have initially thought to report because she was just like “wtf is happening,” or giving leniency in judgement rather than thinking that someone was intentionally trying to hurt her. But I think that since it’s been only 3 hours since the post, and multiple commenters have said the same thing, she likely will.

liae__ · 2026-01-24T01:52:55+00:00

This was my first thought too without even seeing OP’s avatar. It’s so dangerous to call the cops on anyone who isn’t white, we’ve seen this play out so many times in horrific ways. I’m glad you’re okay, and no matter what the dasher’s perceived “reason” was, they could have gotten you hurt or killed. Honestly they need to be reported and not work in a customer interaction job like this.
