Tomorrow, on the 50th anniversary of the sinking, the Detroit Mariners’ Church bells will ring 30 times — once for each of the souls lost to the lake and once for Gordon Lightfoot, who brought a somber remembrance and immortality to them all

if you changed size suddenly and in need of replacing most of your clothes, a lot of the sustainable guides aren't for you. You don't need to feel horrible about it. And you need stuff that fits you now and doesn't make you uncomfortable. You are not the problem.

I need to do another comm campaign but once again I feel so bad bc everyone is going through it and I don't want to encourage anyone to spend needlessly. Bit also we're all out of work in my house and I already had to replace the brakes in the car, and now I have to get a new sink and a new freezer

I don't know what to do with my hair that'll stop people from making fun of me for having a "trendy teen boy haircut." I've had the same hair for 5 years and there's only so much I can do with my natural hair that's not growing it out again, cutting it to an inch long or straightening it. Sigh.

I hate when I have to choose between things I really really want, when I've already had to give up other things I really want. And I'm at the point and age where it really is either or

Help. I need to send a gift for someone in the states, shipped from and within, where I usually send my own gifts. But the tariffs. Any suggestions? In the 20 range

I want to go see Frankenstein so bad but it's only in imax here. I can barely tolerate the sound level and the total darkness and contrasts in a standard movie theatre, and I still get a headache. I don't think i can do this I am afraid.
