Re the person whose friends donāt reach out: hang in there. Tell them. And if they donāt change, change something. Join a happy hour, go to a workout class, etc. Find new friends bc you deserve to be treated better.
I was buying cat litter on Saturday and the cashier (who I know was just trying to be nice), sent me off with, "And happy Mother's Day! You're a mom, too!" I really wanted to reply, "Having a cat is not being a mom!" but it didn't seem worth it. But seriously. Pets are not children.
This. I have plenty of animals. I jokingly call myself their ādaddyā but I am in no way a father and people who say otherwise are disrespecting REAL parents.
Reading this as a father, calling it "played out" seems a little much. I think in this case, everyone on both sides needs to stay in their lane and drop all judgment (which I know is hard to do).
I think the 10-times-a-year teeth brushing confession broke something in all of us
It owns real estate in everyone's head at this point, I think about it constantly
Between that and not washing sheets.. Iām š
SAME. We are not ok.
Like how? This is not even ONCE A MONTH! š©š„“ I cannot do anything. Not one single thing when I wake up before brushing my teeth. Maybe this person is unsheltered?
HMU if those last two spoke to your soul.

The sheet ones ALWAYS get me
I say ChatGBT but not at all thinking LGBT. Isnāt that what the tool is called? What am I missing?

Not washing sheets in a year is just absolutely TERRIBLE. š¤®
The German word is called āHeimwehā when you miss home and are sad, that you are not at home currently.
Thank you! Part of the reason I included that one was in hopes of someone knowing it.
Easier to know as native speaker
Is whoever confessed to brushing their teeth more than 10 times a year okay
This is a reference to a much-criticized confession from last week
Reading this as a father, calling it "played out" seems a little much. I think in this case, everyone on both sides needs to stay in their lane and drop all judgment (which I know is hard to do).
It could definitely get better for some of the confessions (that I didn't include) which seemed petty.
