Well that's terrifying.

Off brand Bagel Bites are a big nope for me.

I like to imagine this person realized he was close to his friend’s house, parked nearby, texted his friend, drove by the house and honked, then parked again and waited for the friend to respond. That's my head canon.

Yeah, this one's tough to address because I wasn't there when she said it. I heard it second hand from my husband. If I had been there, I definitely would have said something to her. For the most part she's great, but my husband's family culture is kinda like... They say things bluntly sometimes. My family was NOT like that growing up. I think there's a happy medium to be found somewhere in there...

Sorry about your MIL. It's great that you've set boundaries though.

We're on kind of a tight budget right now, but it's something I've considered.

I definitely feel like most baby boomers do not see neurodivergence or mental health challenges as legitimate. They don't get how ADHD or depression or anxiety could cause someone to struggle so much with everyday tasks.

Thanks for responding. That's an interesting way to frame it that I never thought of before - that cleaning is sort of a... talent, for lack of a better word. I guess I feel like there's this expectation for everyone, especially women, to be super clean. But I've never been that person. I think I can do a little better but yeah I'm never gonna have knack for it per se.

My husband is currently taking naltrexone, so I just wanted to hop on here and say to anyone that is considering taking it, please be careful and do your research! It's not that the medication is bad, but you should prepare for it before you start, especially if you currently drink in high quantities. My husband went to a psychiatrist who specializes in substance use, she gave him an RX for naltrexone but didn't provide really any resources or advice about how to approach it. The first night, he decided to drink maybe half of his normal nightly amount of alcohol - he vomited multiple times, had bad chills, etc. There's also risk of seizures if you try to quit or taper down from alcohol too quickly. After that night, he decided that he would only take half his naltrexone dose at first and would taper down very slowly. Things have been going much better for the last few weeks. Also, you really need someone to help you stay accountable if you're going to try an at-home detox. In our case, we locked up all of the alcohol in our house (I keep the key). And I'm in the room with my husband while he drinks a specific amount of vodka each night. Since that first night, I don't think he's really had any significant side effects.

My favorite part:

"I am sure some in our audience have questions for our various experts up on stage?" Ms Voigtschild said after the mud was found. There were none.

Yessss. I loved this one. Can't remember where I got it. Did they sell these at McDonald's itself or were just at the store with other VHS?

Well, I live in the U.S. and I've never heard of mutual aid, nor have I ever heard anyone I know mention it. So it may be partly that folks like myself just don't know about it.

The answer is yes, yes they are that desperate.

Oh man, the Duggars... I really miss taking part in r/DuggarsSnark and r/FundieSnarkUncensored on Reddit.
