Lol, like I have ever had mental bandwidth. Childhood trauma represent!
Spot on with the “I’d really like to get the depression under control before I let you function at your job.”
Because fixing the unfixable is somehow more important than making sure I keep my job so I can like…eat. And live indoors. And afford the healthcare that is paying them.
She’s basically wearing a Gibson girl hairstyle. The pompadour is held up with a ring of something like foam or a hair rat, which is hair in a sort of netted tube sock thing. The rest is just swirled and tucked with extra hair pieces for fullness.
You should refer to her as her nickname, Rory, since they’re both Lorelei.
I would welcome getting to turn down the volume of my sensory issues. It causes more distress than acceptance can fix.
Good luck emigrating unless you can afford those countries that let you buy residency.
Props to anyone who has successfully moved to another country because eegads that is not an easy or quick process.
I literally made this mistake 3 weeks ago. Worst oatmeal ever.
I have always been “non-traditional” looking. When I was young and skinny I don’t think I was ugly but certainly not conventionally beautiful. Now that I’m older I am certifiably “meh”.
The expectation to look pretty (for men) is still there even if I don’t meet the criteria for their attention. I still feel the societal pressure, I still feel bad about my appearance when I’m not serving male gaze ideals. It doesn’t just go away even when you’re disqualified from personhood for being ugly.
I’m hoping becoming an old biddy will release me from requirements and I can feel free.
Absolutely do NOT recommend. Also avoid Home advisor or whatever it is, the WORST contractors are from there.
No idea. I get ecstatic over mediocre contractors who barely gouge. We’ve genuinely just started DIYing almost everything because if it looks “okay, I guess” then at least it didn’t cost $8000 and I semi-learned a new skill.
Edit: our best contractor was from a random Google maps search for handy person. I picked a relatively new business with few reviews entirely because they were the only ones to call back. But they worked out great and I was happy with the work.
I think it is honestly trial and error.
Edit edit: the vibes you get from the in home estimate are helpful. If they don’t try to upsell you at all, hire them.
In fact, the aforementioned best contractor we ever hired told me not to contract them to do something because it was a really simple to DIY. They showed me the exact kit to buy and told me how to do it. Theoretically he could have screwed himself out of money but we decided to do a bigger job than originally planned because of that move.

Huh, crazy. A remaster would be neat, I really enjoyed FF9.
Am neurodivergent AF. I’m the kind that needs ALL OF THE LIGHTS. Not cool tone (hiss) but neutral to warm toned lights. I need the overhead and any and all lamps at the same time- gotta be lit like a goddamn stadium up in this bitch.
We exist.
This is just like Maximum Overdrive!
If you include insects and arthropods and everything suddenly turns into uberbloodlust-kill-all-humans then non-human animals win, hands down. I think people overestimate their ability, the effectiveness of weapons, and the sheer number of insects that are near you at all times. Insect biomass alone outstrips humans by an insane margin. Very few mammals or other animals would get a lick in, I think. There is no hermetically sealed bunker that would hold for long, and that won’t save you from the mites already on your skin although they probably can’t do a ton of a damage.
I didn’t adjust well to it because I have an erratic sleep schedule, probably partially from a decade of shift work. I am also not a morning person at all and adjusting to 9-5 (or 8-5 or 8-6:30 which is more common around here) was brutal.
Is the job actually 9-5 for real? Like an 8 hour shift that includes lunch? If so, that’s a pretty sweet gig. Like NOWHERE let’s your lunch be part of your day anymore.
Overall I’m happier at a more consistent job time now. Easier to plan around, no more close-to-open bs.
