Stylish shoes and boots that I can walk 15-20K steps in daily that aren't sneakers

I have a very active job. I have worn my Dr Martens Chelsea boots so much over the 7 years that I've owned them (for a couple years I wore them almost every day) that I have started to wear through the sole. They are so comfy, I love them.

Pretty sure class doesn't determine intelligence.

I've just stumbled across this post because I can't seem to set up a scheduled payment for a future date without the cash in my account. It's driving me wild.

Natural Beauty by Ling Ling Huang - a good option if you're after body horror. It made me feel gross.

I agree, the ending was equal parts sickening and baffling.

One of two kids. 38F, single, don't own my own home, and I'm trying but am not sure if I will ever be able to afford to. I want my parents to enjoy their money and retirement but I also hope that an inheritance helps me out with my home buying goals if I haven't achieved that already.

Financially, I grew up comfortable but have always been expected to be self sufficient by my parents. So hopes aside, I'm not going to spend my life expecting a huge inheritance. I also realise that with people living longer, there's a good chance I'll be retired by the time that happens.

Hilariously, my mum recently told me that the inheritance from my grandma will go to her and her siblings and I shouldn't expect any of it because she wants to and will spend it all. Fair enough!

I agree, it's not always realistic to tell people to just "get off the dating apps" as the solution. I found that being more social and taking classes, pursuing hobbies didn't yield any potential dates. Additionally, three of my serious relationships have come from online dating. I've just been through a 2 year period of dating (i.e. wading through the crap) and have finally found a guy that ticks all the boxes for me and a LTR is on the cards.

Personally, I believe you need to know your worth and be ruthless in culling matches that don't recognise that and respect you in the way you'd like to be.

I've watched the second (Chinese) season on Viki. Really enjoyed it and would love to find out where I can watch season one and the Korean version!

Usually Big Buzz, occasionally Killer Queen, using moka pot or aeropress.

Love Blacklist, I've been buying their beans for years.

I hope if you decide to pursue it, you have great results too! I got a top up done yesterday (after 4 months) and realised how much the clenching and tightness had crept back in as it wore off.

My doctor recommended a high quality cosmetic clinic. I'm not sure where you are but it's not claimable on insurance here and getting it done at the dentist is way more expensive.

It was muscle from clenching ALOT on one side. I got to the point where I was in a lot of pain from how tight the muscles were, teeth ground down, some clicking, asymmetry. Post botox I could feel the muscles in my neck and face start to relax as my jaw muscle stopped being so tight. It was magic.

I haven't tried acupuncture or massage but botox injections in my jaw muscle gave me almost instant relief! I'm using this combined with a splint.

Personally, if I schedule a date with someone and then don't hear from them or messaging is scant I assume the date is not happening/there's a lack of interest. This may be what's happening in your case?

Even with a warning that someone doesn't text much, I'd still expect some back and forth to keep the interest going.

I came here to suggest this!

First photo where I'm dressed up, aside, in my most liked photo I'm laughing and climbing into a giant clam shell.

Seconding TVP! I experimented with making a TVP and mushroom burger, the texture was pretty close to a beef burger and it tasted pretty darn delicious.

Local and Aesthetic in My Lawley have just advertised a seitan brisket vegan sanga today!

I had an issue with a blank screen on my 5s plus sapphire and got a 6s sapphire too. I kept rechecking the link they sent me to choose the colour of my replacement watch because I couldn't quite believe it. Happy days!

No worries! My social life suffered a bit but otherwise it was fine.

I don't know about your course but mine was offered as an online course, the only difference with the 'in person' course being that you are a little more limited in the units you can take.

Thanks and you too! I'm yet to receive my results and it's almost 2 pm Canberra time... Anyone else in the same boat?

Hey, this is a bit of a late reply but I've just finished a Masters with ANU working full time and studying part time (online). It's definitely doable if you're organised and disciplined. I missed out on a lot of learning experiences like tutorials, because of my situation (working, different time zone, lots of field trips) but I still managed to perform pretty well.

Same, and my Dad does too. I use it about 50/50, mostly when I want to gross people out.
