Thanks, Zed. That made my day, week, whatever. I really appreciate it.

My girlfriend and I are going to Florida for her spring break, and to this day whenever I buy airline tickets or book hotel rooms I'm surprised I'm allowed. Like someone is going to tell me this is frivolous and to grow up.

I'm sorry Emiliana. I hope the mood breaks. I'm in a weird spot, mental health-wise, too. I'm mostly okay and very functional as long as I am crazy busy. I'm working full-time (more than that, really) at my day job as a coordinator at a tiny nonprofit, I'm tutoring 10-20 hours every week, I'm mainta...

It is pretty wonderful, right?

http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/88964/ This isn't meant to attack or even disagree with Sheebs or the church, but I really, really hope that if anyone ever makes you feel the way Sheebs describes that she might in this situation, you run far, far away, and that you do it quickly. There is no cause...

I laughed right out loud at it. Gotta love Archer.

I'm less "bothered" and more "intrigued" ... what if Amanda is bi? Rule 34 kids First of all, this is the most tame citing of rule 34 ever. Second of all, I'm pretty sure rule 34 is primarily meant for weird stuff, and being queer and finding yourself in fortuitous situations is...

BECAUSE WHAT IF HIS WIFE IS ACCIDENTALLY PORNOGRAPHY Uggghhhhhh raaaaaaaaage. You and your ways with pushing my rage buttons. I'm more bothered by the idea of asking friends to take your nude photos. Okay, sure, there is no way in hell I would ask a friend to do this for me, and it's not exactly an...

I just... why does this matter? Why do you have to know whether it's okay? They aren't hurting anyone. Just let it be. This kind of thing confuses me.

Does your newspaper or anything rate your judges? If so, if they are doing a good job, just vote for the incumbents. If not, do more research into who is running. This is how my father the judge taught me to do it and I feel no guilt not stressing about judges races. BUT THEY ARE SUPER IMPORTANT TO ...

In the short-term, no. She's in grad school in New Jersey but she will graduate in May. I'm waiting for her to restabilize with a job before I start making any plans. I'm crossing my fingers that we will live in the same state again in under 18 months, though.

Long-distance dating blows.

I'm glad they changed the name and the location. But I don't think it's news. I think it's too little too late for me to be moved, and I can't imagine that most people I associate with in the LGB and Mormon/post-Mo circuit feel any differently. Most of the conversation I've seen it spark I wouldn't ...

Just a note: a SSRI probably won't do jack squat in a week. It's more like 6-8 weeks, even for PMDD.

I'm sorry about the PMDD. That sucks.

anasarca (noun): generalized severe edema (swelling)

When the billing representative harassed the patient on his way to surgically relieve his anasarca, the patient spat right in the rep's backpfeifengesicht.

Emiliana, that sounds awesome! My girlfriend lives in New Jersey now and over the weekend she went on a hike and saw a watchtower from the Civil War and all of the barely changing leaves. I'm jealous of all of you that get an autumn. All we have here is a it's-no-longer-so-hot-that-you-want-to-die. ...

Tally, depression definitely definitely sucks. I'm sorry. And Emiliana, making the right med choices is also really tricky and hard sometimes. I'm a veritable psychotropic pharmacy right now, and balancing all of that with just wanting to have some wine sometimes is weird. Anxiety is hard. All of th...

While I'm glad that kind of relationship is being normalized between men and that men apparently don't have to be quite as insane about protecting the possible perceptions of their masculinity, I'm very bored of giving head pats for decent human behavior. I am all kinds of grouchy right now, and I'm...

I'm playing that game too. It does suck. I feel you

Med withdrawal can be kinda the worst. I got diagnosed with PTSD, so that's real. I got prescribed an antipsychotic off-label, plus two antidepressants and something for nightmares. Outside of my insurance company holding up the process of me getting one of the antidepressants and the intermittent e...
