Hm, I guess dealing with parental quirks tilted me the other way. I feel now like I want to be perpetually 20, but I had a chronically depressed single/divorced mom and an alcoholic dad (I’m pretty sure he was self medicating for his undiagnosed ADHD, and have come to terms with all that went on). So yeah, I parented my parents.

Ask him if he could trust you again if you deleted your tiktok and IG accounts. And then delete them.

Or if you don’t wish to do that, and want to keep making money from followers, then your guy is saying that’s his boundary to protect his heart.

You can’t control what your followers will send to you. If he’s not ok with that, then your choice seems to be him or the extra money, but not both. That sucks and it hurts, but it also means that having both was never really a possibility.

That’s such a great idea!

You might be able to apply for an account online and not have to go in, unless you just want to meander through their not-book- things available to check out.

My library has a lovely assortment of things. Anything from camping gear to ghost hunting “equipment” like a spirit box or emf meter. My city doesn’t have a fully outfitted maker lab tho, but I am eligible for an account at the neighboring city that does have a kickass maker lab (3d printers, laser engravers, sewing and embroidery machines, Cricuts, and even a professional recording studio).

You’re pretty fly

He actually cared about us. Our wellbeing, our professional growth. He didn’t get too stressed about things. He was forever asking for help with his phone or Word or Excel, but it was so adorable when he decided he wanted to learn to do a thing and just wanted our watchful eye to give him confidence. He in turn built our confidence. He had our backs. He was the best boss I ever had. When I was given staff to look out for, it’s him who I tried to emulate. He passed last month, and the service is next month. I’m looking forward to seeing the old gang again even under sad circumstances.

She was legendary for sure, but in a chaotic narcissistic way, sometimes negatively, but not always. She did us alright this time though.

Yes, but not from my parents. My grandma told me and one of my cousins one evening when we were staying with her. I think I prefer that it had been her vs one of my parents being awkward about it.

“3:96”…

hmmm

It wasn’t the sugar, it was the ants!

You are not alone.

I’m curious. We may need a demonstration.

Every time I’ve read this in this thread, my ears flex hard. Sometimes if I do it too many times in a row one gets “stuck” for a moment before it can relax.

Wait so not everyone can smell ladybugs? I think they smell horrible. I don’t detect ants though. Grasshoppers have a distinct smell to me too but I don’t find that nearly as offputting.

Nope, I usually hear both! 🙃

An IN-visi-vest, if you will

Not as cool as Predator camouflage but just as effective.

You should’ve gone with Ambiguous Pops then for your username. 😄

Well yeah, they’re saying it’s their super power, not their minor power.

Or are you saying attracting minors doesn’t count toward Disney Princess credentials?

Rackin’ frackin’ varmint!
