Age verification? I wore butterfly clips in my homecoming updo…the first time they were cool.

Also, looking forward to and also completely dreading the last service of this amazing place on May 4. See y'all there.

Accidental win! Mine are a salvaged-from-the-alley hand-me-down and an old trunk bought before all the Pier 1’s closed.

Clothes that fit well. I would rather starve than wear jeans an inch too short ever again.

Submitted for PSLF buyback in April. There’s a backlog and they don’t appear to be necessarily doing applications in order of receipt, but they are starting to move after doing none for months. The PSLF subreddit has lots of folks posting their buyback timelines. www.reddit.com/r/PSLF/s/a6m...

Better response: “Democracy may well be over. Probably best to not worry about it too much though.”

I needed to stabilize first. I was sad and angry to the point of self destruction, and an antipsychotic basically knocked me on my ass enough to get my bearings and slow my thoughts so I could function and process things more rationally. But sanity never would have stuck without the acknowledgement.

Still do the drugs and the therapy if they help though. It ended up being the combo of drugs (temporarily) and just the acknowledgement of my anger and sadness that eventually got me through it. Ain’t no one way to mental health.

As someone misdiagnosed with bipolar for a decade when really it was just a shit life that made me really, really unhappy and angry…this doc is worth their weight in gold.

Ha! Fun fact: You can buy a lacrosse ball for $4 or less at any sporting goods store. All that same grippy weight for a fraction of the price.
