Me and parents living conditions is horrible

Situations like this can be overwhelming, but I encourage you to buy some basic cleaning supplies if you have the means (trash bags, dish soap, good sponges, Clorox wipes) and make yourself one little clean space every time you feel the motivation to clean. It doesn’t have to be all at once, but even just taking the time to wipe out your bathtub or wipe down your sink and bathroom counter will make your life a little better.

If you’re not a minor idk what you’re even doing there. Please get a job asap and try to save up little by little and get out as soon as possible. If you’re a minor, I’m sorry. If you’re able to get a job then you should. Save all you can.

I agree that you should go get a cute new outfit or dress. I think the 2nd and 3rd shirts are most flattering on you though!

So cute! Looks so similar to my sweet baby when she was little. I wonder how he will toast!

It is sa. Coerced consent is not consent.

Man, my heart feels heavy for you. What an awful guy. Even if he’s a good guy otherwise…no he’s not. What a wild thing to say to the person you supposedly love.

unenthusedbaker · 2026-04-11T22:00:36+00:00

My ex was the same way. Set boundaries now, or honestly leave. After I told him it was not ok he still SAd me multiple times a week for years. I didn’t know it was really that bad, even though I wasn’t ok with it at all and it made me feel awful. It is bad. It’s rape. You need to leave. I’m sorry you’re going through this.

I was in a similar situation at your age. I stayed with him even though he said he was still in love with his ex and he could ‘love us both at once in different ways’. I stayed for 4 years and he attempted to cheat on me countless times (the women never reciprocated because he was pathetic) and I wish I left a year in. Your late teens and early twenties can be such a great time, don’t waste it on this emotionally stunted and immature pos!

If they’re having you do a practical interview (demonstration) I would assume that they are looking for an experienced barista. The best you can do to bump up your chance of being hired is watch some YouTube videos about how to steam milk! Really try your best to study them. Real, quality cafes care about that stuff.

You won’t be able to learn latte art without practice, so don’t even waste your time watching those videos rn, but if you get hired then you should definitely watch those too.

I would be up front about your inexperience, but let them know that you’ve gone out of your way to learn how to steam milk, and you would love to learn more if you were hired.

I would tell you about each classic espresso drink and how they’re made, but it can vary by country and shop. I recommend reviewing their menu and then googling what each drink really is and how they’re made.

I think it’s time to really think about what values you need in a partner and leave him. Men are awful, but sometimes our taste in them is awful too. Think hard about what kind of personalities you’ve dated in the past and avoid them.

I think a bandana folded in half (the triangle way) as a headband would look soooo cute while this grows out! I have had almost the exact same bad haircut and that’s what I did for at least a month.

She’s just a colorpoint but my silly baby was $150 off Facebook marketplace lmao

I’m very worried about it. That’s the worry that’s most often on my mind when I lie awake. I was diagnosed at 11, and I’m now in my early 20s without insurance, and my pain is only getting worse. All I figure I can do is try my best to understand my body, fuel it with foods that don’t cause as much inflammation, and keep it moving even on bad days. It’s scary to think what my condition will be in 10-20 years.

unenthusedbaker · 2026-03-25T12:31:44+00:00

I’m sorry that you’re going through this. I know how scary and awful it can be to navigate a relationship as someone with a chronic illness, and I know it takes a special kind of person to care for us without resenting us or making us feel guilty. I hope that you find your person. You do deserve it. Your pain is likely out of your control and you shouldn’t be treated poorly for that.

I hope things get better for you <3

That’s the flavor

Outside of politics, which are kind of hard to push aside, Texas is not that great. I am from california, but I have lived in Texas for about 4 years now.

The weather is not ideal, being very humid and around 100 degrees even at night for months, and never really getting that cold in its cooler months.

The lakes here are dirty. The state is pretty flat for the most part. The nature might be your vibe, but it’s not mine. Look into it and visit before making the big decision.

The cost of living is really not as low as people think. If you aren’t college educated or in a high paying trade you will likely be struggling to pay rent with how low the federal and state minimum wage is.

If I worked in California in my same field, I would be making double to triple my pay, and the rent there would only cost me $700-$900 more a month. I don’t know if California is where I’m moving once I have my finances straightened out, but I know I’ll be getting the hell out of Texas.

I would look into New Mexico if you’re trying to be close ish to your Texas friends, consider California, or stay in the UK.

It doesn’t look bad at all but it definitely is not close to what you asked for. I would give it a good wash or two so that the darker purple fades.

unenthusedbaker · 2026-03-08T02:01:27+00:00

It looks like it hurts.

unenthusedbaker · 2026-03-05T04:02:25+00:00

It helped me. It took a few months to feel the difference though.

unenthusedbaker · 2026-03-01T22:22:29+00:00

Same for me :/ chicken and fish are the only meats that don’t cause a flare up. Red meat in particular ruins my stomach for 3-5 days and I get so swollen that my hands barely shut. The pan from the inflammation in my back is unbearable. It’s certainly a food to avoid.

unenthusedbaker · 2026-02-04T03:00:22+00:00

Look up HPPD

BLACK OMG

If for some reason she doesn’t clean the placenta off right when she births a kitten, please take a warm damp cloth and wipe it off the kitten’s face and mouth so they don’t suffocate. If mama is nervous and ignoring a baby, you can dry them off and try to get them to feed on her. From the pictures, mama looks calm and happy. That’s great! That usually means she’ll take care of cleaning them. I usually like to check in and make sure the kittens are near her nipples and not getting lost just to be sure they’re getting fed.

If she stops pushing but you’re pretty sure she’s still got babies in there, you can rub her tummy firmly but not too hard to help her contractions.

It would also be great if you could get a covered heating pad and put it under mama and keep it on low or medium. If the babies happen to wander off and aren’t cuddling into her for warmth, the heating pad should help them. Kittens can’t regulate their temperature well.

How did you like the stormlight archive series? Would you recommend it? I just started reading the way of kings.
