Re: Hello? Is it me you're looking for?

Every time I read or hear the word "imbibe" I think of The Magicians episode "Have you brought me little cakes" Overall, I love the show, but it did kind of ruin the word "imbibe" for me. It's a great show (season 1 is on Netflix and season 3 should be airing at the beg...

Re: 90302 - How to help a young, sexually assaulted family m

I have submitted a correction encouraging the OP to call the National Sexual Assault Hotline or visit www.rainn.org so that they can receive more help on how to appropriately address this family member. Their number is 1-800-656-HOPE for anyone who may need it.

It's a boy, he's a lab and his name is Ruger. And yes, my signature does make things seem a bit more dubious.

Re: First piece of news you remember

The first specific thing would probably be 9/11 for me.However, before that I remember hearing a whole bunch of stuff about the Catholic church and birth control which led to me asking my mom, "Mom, do we believe in birth control?" and receiving a curt,"Yes." in response. To be f...

Re: Happy Days in Random Chatter 10

We might be getting a puppy! I'm really excited, but I'm also mentally preparing if the 'might' becomes a 'not'. I should know by next week.

If you want to know where I've been, I went from Idaho to Utah to Idaho to Utah, back to Idaho, back to Utah, then Arizona, Nevada, California, Nevada, Arizona, and back to Utah. I'm done with long car rides for a bit.

Periods and Garments

BQ 89828 I've recently had my IUD removed and I completely forgot how much periods suck, I also work 12 hour shifts in a hot and humid environment so they suck even more than they used to. I've taken to wearing underwear under my garments because they hold the pads in place better than my garments ...

Re: 13 Reasons Why, et al.

Ok, I've finished the show and I have to say that I agree with what yayfulness and Marduk have said above. This show has the potential to be very dangerous to teens and others who may be at risk for putting themselves in Hannah Baker's shoes. I do also think that this show (in the correct context) c...

Re: Den of apostates

Yes, I get a little sad when I find that someone isn't active, but that's more of the same sadness when you find out that your friend finally read your favorite book and didn't like it. Even then, it makes me happy to see what's going on in their lives and that in general, they're happy. I've reali...

Re: Den of apostates

Can I just say that I'm actually surprised that two thirds of board alumni are still active in the church? All of my aunts and uncles on both sides of my family (and I have a large Mormon family) were raised in the church by my grandparents and, from what we can tell, only about half are still activ...

Re: 13 Reasons Why, et al.

I haven't watched the show, but I read the book close to when it came out and to be honest I don't remember much from it. I mostly got the impression/reminder that our interactions with others really does affect their lives and we do need to treat one another better. Either way, I don't think it is ...

Apparently a package from Amazon is coming today. Neither my husband or I ordered anything from Amazon, neither of us have a birthday soon either, and no one has told us to expect a package. Update: The package has arrived! Turns out it is an Easter gift from my husband's parents, one of the big ba...

Re: uppgivenhetssyndrom (giving up on life syndrome

The Freakonomics episode is more talking about causes and trends in people who commit suicide, so if we take it back to the original part of this where we're asking how local culture and social conditions affect health, it's intriguing that suicide is less prevalent in certain demographics, cultures...
