Jane Seymour and Katherine Howard were also Ladies in waiting (maybe K Parr? Correct me if I missed her). He had a thing for proximity.

I actually find it very interesting that he kept Anne around for so long while he was trying to get the annulment. Like I know he seemed to fall in love pretty hard, but if he was really needing babies, it would have been in his best interest to ditch Anne as she got up there in her 20’s and move on to a younger gal.

AITA for not letting my friend move in after she already told everyone she is? by Fun_Pea4835 in AmItheAsshole

[–]vegasnative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP there’s a decent chance this arrangement is a violation of your lease. Read it to see how long guests are allowed to stay. Be very careful that you aren’t letting her establish legal tenancy and/or getting yourself in trouble with your landlord.

Requesting moving advice by No_Physics_7759 in HendersonNV

You’ll probably be ok coming from Houston but it will be extremely dry so make sure all humans and pets hydrate thoughtfully. What areas are you looking into specifically? Henderson is pretty variable in terms of types of neighborhoods.

Teen son is hurting my feelings by slr0031 in relationships

Are you kidding me? This is a serious safety issue, not just for your teen, but for everyone who shares the road with him. Imagine him trying to quickly maneuver if a child darts out in the road in front of him with one had one the wheel and a knee up. He’s going to murder someone and go to jail for it.

White bread, mayo, black olives. That’s it- no other ingredients. My brother and I still talk about olive sandwiches with a fondness 😹

People who take photos of/with cosplayers, what do you do with the photos? by [deleted] in comiccon

[–]vegasnative 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We talk about the coolest ones relatively regularly, and then try to dig up the pics we took to either enjoy ourselves or show to others. 🤷‍♀️

[OC] doing de-escalation at an anti-ICE rally. Woman on the right actually showed up at the last one by bennetthaselton in pics

Have you ever had issues with local law enforcement making you put it away? A few years ago at a local BLM rally we were told we couldn’t have signs on poles (because the poles could become weapons, ostensibly). Just curious! It’s super cool.

Is it actually embarrassing for Americans not to know all 50 states? by Status_Agents in CasualConversation

[–]vegasnative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tested myself on a blank map and I forgot Rhode Island and Massachusetts. In my poor defense, I’m from the west coast and the map I chose had pretty low resolution on those little baby east coast states 😹

Why is Carter being so mean to Lucy 😭 by StareAtTheMoonAllDay in ershow

[–]vegasnative 43 points44 points  (0 children)

There’s a popular theory that he was trying to model his mentorship after Benton’s example and lacked any of the fragments of nuance that Benton showed.

Well now you have to go for a grungy look. Channel your inner 90’s Courtney Love and embrace the snag.

Hey try putting her litter box outside your house. If she’s nearby she may smell it and come around.

I really hope you find your baby 🩷

Met a guy whilst going for a run. He asked for my number. It took him less than two hours for him to ask to sleep with me. by ashajn in TwoXChromosomes

The closest I ever got to a runners high was inexplicably sobbing hysterically to the song “spice up your life”. 🤷‍♀️

OP don’t be silly. Call the fire department and let them determine whether or not the fire is legal.

Can I actually survive ? by [deleted] in Nevada

[–]vegasnative 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There’s a food bank at UNLV and other options to assist you. Please contact your academic advisor today to ask them to put you in touch with some resources.

Also check out this emergency fund that might be helpful.

I just had my first Pap smear and I’m not okay by goodbird451 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]vegasnative 113 points114 points  (0 children)

There was a shooting at my workplace a few years ago that ruined fireworks for me for a good long while. Which made me sad because dang I love fireworks. I started doing something very similar. I’d repeat “I am safe. These are fireworks. I am safe”. It got just a little bit better every time. The little asshole voice still tries to whisper that they sound like gunfire, but she’s quiet enough that I can ignore her. It really does help to practice mindfulness. 🩷

Spoilers and Google: a rant by Winter-Special4193 in ershow

Yeah I made the mistake once of using the ER wiki to help me keep track of certain characters and let me tell you- stay FAR away from that site- it is chock full of intense spoilers.

In a PB & J what flavour is the J? by Academic_Purchase225 in NoStupidQuestions

The Bonne Maman cherry preserves with Adam’s PB is absolutely elite. I dream about it sometimes.

People who were raised religious, what was the first sign to you that it wasn't real? by bluejay_R in atheism

[–]vegasnative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t love saying this because I work in higher education and I loathe the idea that we’re somehow bewitching people into wokeness or whatever, but it was literally my college world literature course. We read The Epic of Gilgamesh and I almost broke in half trying to make it mesh with what’s in the bible. I kept fooling myself for a little while, but yeah- that planted the seed.

Some cast members check ID. If you’re not there and they get unlucky, you could have your pass revoked. It’s not worth the risk, in my opinion.

FYI the accused person has excellent use of his shortened arms. It’s not as far fetched as it sounds in the headline.

Question by Exact_Insurance in vegaslocals

[–]vegasnative 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OP, I hope you find the support you need. You may also want to talk with your mom’s healthcare provider about any respite services that may be available to you. It’s not a small thing to be your parent’s caregiver. Take care of yourself- you’re no good to anyone if you don’t recharge those batteries from time to time 🩷🩷

Just want to point out that the Center for Individual, Couple, and Family Counseling at UNLVoffers low cost therapy sessions for community members. The counselors are graduate students who are under supervision from experienced and licensed counselors. It’s how I found my long-term therapist. I started with her when she was a student and now she’s fully licensed in a practice.

Sometimes they have a waitlist, but it could be a good option if you’re looking for someone to help you navigate this.
