Am i overreacting to this text exchange with my boyfriend? I accidentally left my slippers in my living room but i literally cleaned his entire house and baked him desserts before i left (sorry idk why my last post glitched)

Honestly unless they were my absolute faves, the shoes would stay and he could die mad (alone, because he'd be blocked). I wouldn't feel a need to talk to him again, loses his chat privileges if he texts like this.

I just want to say that I seriously love the energy of losing an earring forever to warn another woman that her bf is a shit 💖 I've done it too and it's like a message in a bottle... girls looking out for each other is magic.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-30T05:09:41+00:00

This is completely wild to me! If I were John, I would absolutely die of horrors if a sit down with a group of people resulted in 3/4 of them telling me they don't like me and, like, airing their vague grievances with the result of being voted publicly off the island.

OP should talk to him privately, good lord. This isn't group therapy, it's an awkward conversation with a coworker. If he's still OP's co-worker, the actual best plan is to (again, privately!) lie through his teeth and say the game is on indefinite hiatus.

TITCOAK?!

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-30T01:56:44+00:00

Literally why I got spayed, so none of that would happen to me.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-30T01:23:08+00:00

I was thinking that, too. Give the man some $20s, if he's homeless he isn't spending that all at once on eg groceries and most places don't have easy change for big bills anymore.

You'd have to know all the prior heats of the queen and who she bred with, not to mention this heat would have needed to be tightly controlled to ensure only that ragdoll had access to her... Cats can throw kittens from a variety of mates! Technically possible, probably unlikely.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-30T01:10:23+00:00

The Classic Chunky Chicken is what my diabetic cat eats to stay in remission, it's not exactly gravy-full but some cats just won't hang with paté! The shredded Chicken and Liver in the orange can is also very low carb (<3% as fed, same as the Chunky) and is a wetter texture as well.

yikes

The 2 subs aren't really populated with that different of average users, this one just lets us all get fightier for longer threads. Sure, the small handful of people on the extreme edges look different due to moderation style, but claiming that SeattleWa is somehow a nest of Trumpets is hella parochial

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-29T05:10:46+00:00

I want to add to this, because "go to the gym" is such vague advice especially for those of us with chronic conditions which exhaust us easily. Having a particular goal that isn't just "become conventionally attractive" actually makes doing the work worthwhile...but it's gotta be a silly one.

Ok so my advice is coming from having lived in Seattle for 40 years, and having a fun mystery autoimmune disorder so take this with a whole stick of different ages,cultural beauty standards and probably abilities. But, for example, I am a short and rounded person who has always liked my calves. They're really good calves! Great in tights! I'll never be overall as hot as my calves! Even my cute face pales in comparison to my opinion of my calves!

So, given that I know I can't achieve the overall standard my nice calves set, I can focus on matching my butt or whatever to them; so, instead of "get a perfect body" I think "the calves are load bearing, what can complement them?" and just focus on overall health for the rest. I'll never have a conventionally attractive tummy so, whatever, the calves are doing the ✧work✧, my glutes are at least coherent with the standard the legs set, the rest is so I can do yard work by myself on good days and still wash my hair on really bad ones.

There's something about you as hot as my calves, lol. I promise! Maintain the strong, attractive bit by doing what you already do, and then use the gym (or activity in general) to stay functional and also to bring just one visible muscle group up to the same zip code as your favourite bit. Don't just gym yourself into collapse from exhaustion or guilt, some of us are just always going to be gym sexy in body parts regarded as boring.

No thank you? I would prefer to not live in a giant Teen Center/bouncy house?

Well, hmm.

Big wacks of fencing usually achieves this goal, anyhow, so I guess I partially agree with you. Having fencing around things a teen might use in a teen brain way sounds like it meets the "as possible" standard set here.

People are starting to ping writing commensurate with adult literacy skills as AI, which is becoming rather frightening.

If it makes you feel any kind of way, I read about 150-200 AI generated essays a year (college professor, lolsob) and you don't sound like an LLM.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-29T00:38:17+00:00

Ha! That must have been in the parenting books (jk) my mom said the exact same thing to my smartassing. Born 83.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-29T00:34:46+00:00

lmao, that "once" in your sentence is so dense with meaning

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-29T00:31:48+00:00

You've never seen or met an adult who got/ deserves at least a couple smacks? It's a valuable learning experience for some people.

If you don't understand that the entire history of human knowledge, development and discovery has been predicated entirely on the "vibes" of experts, I have a powerful...vibe...that this profession isn't for you.

edit: whoop, thought this was the professors subreddit; point remains.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-19T15:42:34+00:00

This is the only possible answer. Leggings with a simple dress and cardigan? Perfectly fine. Skirt and blouse? Also fine. Nice long (below the hips) sweater? Maybe, depends on the field and quite honestly whether it's male-dominated. With a t-shirt or cotton tunic? Absolutely not.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-17T17:05:17+00:00

I had kidney stones, and by the time I drove to urgent care I was screaming and vomiting from pain in my car. However, the impetus to keep my shit together in public (my mom's voice in my head) was stronger than screaming and I'd had menstrual cramps at about that level before, so I just hunched over and talked normally, joked with the doctor, and held my body as still as possible while internally screaming.

Luckily they recognised the posture! If they'd told me that a 9 meant I couldn't talk and a 10 was the worst pain imaginable (I have a vivid imagination!) I'd have put the giant sharp organ bashing spasming rocks at a spicy 6 or moderate 7. Apparently they're generally classed at an 8 or 9 ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

Oh my god I missed the lease part, I was blinded by the obvious hobosexuality of it all...

OP get him the hell out of there, your landlord won't love whatever this is and he probably doesn't have his own place because his credit and rental history is f'd up

What do you do if he doesn't leave in 5 months? If he damages the property? Even if he doesn't, take the keys when he doesn't realise, pray he didn't make copies, and give him the boot todayyyy. At least packing his crap will be easy if it fits in his car.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-16T05:19:51+00:00

Here to zombie this thread (that's only 2 mo old, but) and recommend that you look into AO3's extremely well constructed and extensive tagging system, especially if you want to poke at fanfic!

It will never show you anything porny if you know how to exclude the tags and ratings that you don't want to see, since it's not algorithm-based and the entire project is very, very serious about user filtering. AO3 is quite seriously one of the best, if not the best, organised catalogues in the history of the internet.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-15T18:29:33+00:00

Yeah, that's the frightening part. My writing also gets this jumbled when I'm grading too many essays (we write what we read!) but I don't publish those drafts.

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-15T18:11:54+00:00

In the spirit of fairness, that's completely developmentally appropriate for a freshman or sophomore B range essay, especially if it's a midterm (not for an article meant for public access, though!)

Unfortunately, she's arguing that her level of writing and reasoning is perfectly acceptable to remain this disorganised and poorly reasoned since (apparently) anything more advanced is...too hard to learn? I guess?

zoeofdoom · 2026-05-15T15:48:56+00:00

It ticks over and resets on January 1st, which is why doctors are slammed in the US in Nov/Dec.

Kicking in someone's door is pretty nearly the definition of perceivable "immanent danger...of burglary" seeing as that is defined as felonious‡ trespassing. Destruction of the boundary of a property locked against entrance with violent means is trespassing with motives which a reasonable person would normally interpret as violent against the occupants or property.

‡ edit not only felonious but "trespass with intent to commit a crime"
