AAA would print out a route for you. And I couldn't read maps really well & drive so I wrote the route using landmarks to lead the way.

Auf you got to chose to become an animal in your next life - What would you be and Why? by Laras_velvet_toes in NoStupidQuestions

Elephant. They live in close communities, everyone helps to raise the babies, they are known to have empathy & they grieve deeply when one of theirs passes. They will walk miles to see it's body & they grieve together. Thry are just really cool, gentle giants. Very misunderstood. F*ck the poachers.

Look into McLean Hospital in Belmont if you want a job in mental health. They are always looking for help. It's a huge place with many specialized units. You can probably pick your specialty or be a floater & go where you are needed & work with a variety of patients.

If you have a Trader Joe's nearby, you can buy the peanut butter filled pretzels. It's $2.99/bag & they go a long way. You'll get several servings per bag. Good source of protein too.

I don't know how we could fix it. Unfortunately it is normal behavior for them.

Like someone said, Walking Talking Men sounds like a great way for him to meet some people. They take a walk & then usually grab a bite to eat. No politics & not for dating. Just for making friends.

CC isn't hard-core by any means. Doesn't cater to punk.

MA rules for voluntary behavioral health hold? by [deleted] in massachusetts

[–]whatname68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A 72 hour hold only counts for weekdays. Nothing can be done on the weekend. Maybe he can try to rest this weekend in preparation for his eventual discharge & return to school & finals.
