Every Friday, just say whatever is in your mind in this post. It doesn’t need to be a question, and go on whatever tangent you want to go on.
We will still be enforcing our rules on gendered slurs, bigoted/disrespectful/hateful commentary, invalidation (if someone’s only contribution is telling others they are wrong), medical issues, and relationship advice. However the comments don’t need to be on a specific topic, and they don’t need to be open-ended questions.

I’m overwhelmed. My boyfriend never got a degree and was unhappy at his work so I encouraged him to quit and go back to school.
He has one year left until he graduates but things have been financially rough. I make good money, but being the soul earner is hard. I work, volunteer, clean, try to keep things in order but I feel like my brain is going to snap and I want to be taken care of.
We don’t have kids so that helps, but we have 3 pets. I can’t seem to save any money at the moment, am also paying down my own debt.
I just can’t wait until he graduates so I can finally breathe again.
I’m rereading a book series I haven’t read in a number of years. As I’m reading, I’d honestly forgot about 95% of it. It’s nice to experience it for the first time again. I’m planning on reading the entire series again (7 books, I think).
I’m getting my new puppy on Monday. He’s the first dog I’ve personally owned (had/have many family dogs). His name is Gizmo. He’s a biewer terrier/yorkshire mix.
I’m in the process of moving into my own place. Yes, I’ll technically be living at my parents, but I’ll have my own trailer. It will be the first place I live in by myself (I’m 27).
The reason I’m doing all this: I just got out of a 7y relationship and am basically starting over to escape the heartache.
There was a mild earthquake just now. In true Asian bimbo style, I handled it calmly by thinking its one of my pre-diabetic symptoms and assumed it was a vertigo. So I took my vertigo pill. Until a neighbour came frantically knocking at the door asking me to evacuate as that was an earthquake.
Ladies what’s the best and most memorable opening introduction a guys used on you ?
I witnessed a conversation between a 4 yo girl and her friend and I ve been distraught about it ever since.
It wasn’t really anything but here it goes.
She yelled after a boy to please wait for her (they were heading outside and needed to get dressed). But the boy ran ahead and didn’t really care. That’s fine. Lol.
But the girl was sad and said to her girl friend. “Of course he didn’t wait. We should have gotten dressed sooner. We should have been quicker.”
I know I am sensitive. 😂 but when does it start that we make excuses for men?
I have a son around her age and he would never draw that conclusion.
I know, not every girl, not every boy. But this girl, and I feel so sad for her.
