It looks like this has been deleted, but uou just posted a question in a parenting community asking how to talk to your son about puberty. He’s twelve. He needs personal space and privacy, and he definitely needs to be sleeping in his own bed. Imagine how awful and confusing it would be for him to have a wet dream while in bed with you.

Please set a boundary here for his own good. And get to the bottom of why he can’t sleep.

Also I feel like you’ve posted about this before?

Two claws, one arm

Is this a serious question?

Look if you don’t care about your health, you can crash diet, sure, but you’ll lose water weight first, and then will lose muscle alongside the fat, especially if you don’t exercise. You will also feel miserable and will make others feel miserable being around you. And you’ll most likely pack it back on when you quit the diet.

OP said no exercise.

Holy shit that’s so fucking sad! :(

That’s good news! Hopefully you have a speedy recovery and are back visiting Sandy soon :)

It’s so intense, what does it mean

Hooray for yeeting the ute! Did you keep your ovaries, and either way, are you going to start HRT to stave off early menopause? From what I understand, in a hysterectomy the blood flow to the ovaries can get disrupted and they might not function as well, so you start meno earlier than you otherwise would’ve.

Lola is doing her best fruit bat impression

It trickln’t

I cannot explain the man lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yup my husband likes Tyler Childers too, but I don’t care for him. I don’t think I’ve heard of Jason Isbell.

But to each their own! I love pop music from the '60s and my husband’s not nuts about it. Like Sly and the Family Stone say, different strokes for different folks. :)

I love you Gus gus gusterrrrr

Define low quantity. Fruit contains sugars, which can be bad if you have too much, but I find it’s hard to eat enough fruit to push my sugar intake above my daily limit. And fruit is generally a good source of important micronutrients like fiber, potassium, B vitamins, etc.

I don’t generally drink soda but when i do, birch beer is my favorite; second favorites are Dr. Pepper, cream soda, and cranberry ginger ale.

1989 Mercury Sable. White exterior, red interior. Took me 3 tries before I passed.

Country music. That twangy sound is super grating to me, I hate the way certain vowels get stretched out, plus I have no cultural touchpoints with it on either a lyrical or musical level. The stuff that seems most popular is the most obnoxious to me. I’m told this is “the Nashville sound”. Different strokes for different folks, but I sincerely don’t get the appeal of it.

But there’s some country-adjacent music that can be alright. E.g., my husband got really into Sturgill Simpson and I ended up more or less liking his Sound and Fury album, even if some of the vocals do have that irritating twang. I guess I’d consider that more like country-infused rock.

And I guess some older country can be OK once in a while - e.g., Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton.

Cold cuts are a no from me - too unhealthy.

This is fucking infuriating.

Interesting! I think central, north, and south Jersey all have some distinctions in accent. Plus I think a lot of people have a pretty stereotyped idea of what New Jerseyans are “supposed” to sound like haha
