TL;DR- Job hunting gives me anxiety and I'm not unemployed but I'm also not working. My husband is taking care of us, and it's exhausting him. To be clear, this is not about our relationship status or our marriage. My husband and I are quite happily married and have been for a couple years, and our relationship is quite solid. However, we are dealing with the frustrations and financial hardships that come from living under capitalism. I am, legally and technically, employed. I took a seasonal position at a retail store, and they agreed to keep me on permanently. However, I have been scheduled only one 4-hour shift over the course of two months, due to "lack of hours&qu...

/uj Someone did REI dirty with this member return. “Caused blisters” but climbed in them until the needed a resole and then returned them…

What the title says. I just got back from a ski trip with my first pair of brand new skis, which were stored for airplane travel with brakes locked together in a Dakine ski sleeve. I had my ski sleeve packed with a bunch of clothes for padding, and at the last minute I added another jacket for extra padding, making the bag a bit difficult to zip up and likely compressing my skis together more than just the brakes would. Would storing them like this for \~10 hour travel day negatively affect the camber at all? Just want to take care of them the best I can, thanks!

I had an offer through the portal for Carharrtt just over 90 days ago for 17x miles on a purchase, but those miles never shoed up. (waited 90 days to contact support as per their request). I've used dozens of the offers through the portal on the website without and issue, but for some reason this one just never paid out the bonus. Same web browser as I always use, no app or anything weird. I contacted Captial One by phone and the agent transferred me to a 'specialist' to help. The specialist was very salesman-like, talking in circles, but basically saying that I must have done something wrong because the points always pay out. He went through my process, couldn't fin...

Found this fur shawl at a thrift store, google image searched the inscription thinking a clothing brand might pop up, but nada. Anyone recognize it?

Hey, I’m new here so hopefully this is okay to post. Can someone please explain why how we dress matters to God? I understand needing to be modest but besides that it truly doesn’t make sense to me. Makeup and clothes are in a way an art form and it’s beautiful. Why should we gate keep what someone can and can’t wear. I look at Christians and to put it frankly everyone is so boring. Everyone has natural hair colors, no piercing, no tattoos, woman have to be feminine enough and soft. EVERYTHING IS BEIGE! Everyone is copy past of one another. And I kid you not in a Christian woman’s group I’m in a young woman posted herself in a beautiful black dress but god forbid it was black so...

Canadian Tire on Erb in Waterloo. **Feb 2nd** \- my daughter bought a 6ft folding table at Canadian Tire On Erb. $67 - *not cheap* for a young mother She lugged it home, lugged it upstairs to the craft room, opened it and it was broken. Big crack down the middle Yuck. **Feb 5th** \- she drove it back to Canadian tire and exchanged it. Lugged the 2nd one home, upstairs, defective again. That's twice. **Feb 7th** \- bought a one at Home Depot instead (not buying a 3rd defective product), brought it home, setup - it's fine. Much better quality. **Feb 8th** \- returned the 2nd table that was defective. Expected empathy from Canadian Tire, "*sorry for the inconvenien...

Months ago, I had a breakdown at work. I was dealing with a difficult customer who was arguing and being very aggressive with me about how the store works and how he doesn't agree with it, he thought I said something I didn't and kept insisting I did, I lost my temper and snapped 'no I ******* didn't?' felt immensely guilty straight away. I was already having a rubbish shift. BC not long after I started, I had to interact with a man who tried to assault me in the past (I was on fitting rooms) and he threatened me. So. That just added to it all. I got reprimanded for swearing, and I agreed with that. I know I should t have done it, I was just having a very ****** shi...

Hewwo! ♥ I'm hoping to find someone I could deeply connect with. I'd love to one day be in a role reversal relationship with a cg/l dynamic. I'm pretty sensitive and absolutely love being babied and cared for. In my ideal relationship, I see myself being a stay-at-home partner, taking care of things like cleaning, cooking, doing the dishes, buying groceries and making sure you have the easiest time after coming home from a long day at work. If possible, I'd also like doing some work from home like electronics repair, manufacturing useful products for people or anything else I might be interested in, but I'd primarily be focused on doing everything I can for you! ...

Chapter 1 Coming Back "This is Summer. She's the Moore family's long-lost daughter," Simon Moore said. Summer Hayes woke up from darkness, the suffocating haze of near-fatal blood loss still haunting her. She blinked, dazed, taking in her surroundings, realizing she was standing in the living room in Moore Manor. Right in front of her were her parents, Robert Moore and Evelyn Moore, dressed in fancy clothes. Sophia Moore, the so-called heiress, was standing next to Evelyn, wearing a white designer dress and clinging to Evelyn's arm. She shot Summer a nervous glance. It hit Summer that, somehow, she was back at the moment she first met her parents. Summer never...

Hello! I updated the character sheet I made earlier, adding all the characters and changing their preferences to icons because I found a visual guide more useful :) I made two guides. The first one shows only the characters' preferences, based on the mod's JSON files (so there may be more items that the characters like or errors, I apologize for that). There are many items that I still don't know how to get since I couldn't play this mod much, but the vast majority can be purchased in Zuzu City. The other guide is an extension of the first one I made with events by character, thanks to the comments left on the first post and Cassellate's guide on Nexus. I co...

Ok so i live in a very conservative town and i know i will get kicked out if i get found out. 19 years of being closeted with out telling no one ate at me, so at my 19th b-day (one week ago) I made appointments at a makeup studio and nail salon, in on of the big cities near me (hundreds of thousands live there so i didn't worry about getting caught) oh and both of them were at the biggest mall there so i also planned to do some shopping. Any way i arrive look around the mall and notice some alt clothing shop. I go in and decide to buy heavy black pants with loads of chains and zippers and a kind of see through netted black shirt ( got loads and loads of complements from the worker...

Yong-Soo liked places that others had already left. He coasted the last few meters instead of braking. The chain stayed quiet that way. He’d oiled it earlier, hands still faintly smelling of citrus degreaser. The bike leaned easily against the rusted gate. Same spot as always. He checked the street once, puddles under parked cars, dry pavement beyond, then slipped through the gap he knew without looking. Downstairs, the air settled around him: cool, mineral, slightly damp. Leftover rain from yesterday, maybe. Tunnels always kept a memory of weather long after the sky forgot. *Good light tonight.* Soft. Even. The color leaned slightly off, something he would usually fix in post. He mad...

I know a common reason given for men who have struggles with dating or relationships is that they're boring or lack style. Which is generally considered a personal failing, a sign of laziness, as all people have equal opportunity. I'm not sure if this applies to women too? Personally I had super restrictive and abusive parents, so until my early 20s wasn't really allowed to have hobbies, choose my own clothing, speak up or be self-expressive, freely explore interests or get the privilege of a lot of life experiences which gives your mind data on which you build creativity. On top of that, a lot of school bullying (including for race and looks), which I'm sure limits a p...

I'm a 62-year-old male, diagnosed almost 13 years ago. I've been following (and participating in) threads about masking, and the discussion has helped me understand something important about myself that I hadn't fully articulated before. This is **not** a theory of autism in general. It's a personal model of how autism seems to be organized *for me*. How this started: I've been struggling to understand masking. People describe it differently.  Some describe it as conscious.  Others as unconscious.  Some describe it as hiding autistic traits (e.g. suppressing stims).  Others describe it as performing a more neurotypical persona. I kept asking myself: *what do...

My partner is moving countries to start a new life with me in the UK. I’ve recently bought a house for us to live in, and over the past couple of months I’ve been spending heavily on renovations - full electrical rewire, plastering, new kitchen, new bathroom, basically every room being redone. I’m financially stretched and have borrowed around £20k from my parents to make the house livable and ready for us. As a leaving gift, my partner’s boss told her he would give her a £600 gift card for a furniture store. I thought this was incredibly generous. £600 could go a long way furnishing a bedroom or living space, which would really help right now. However, it turned out the gift ca...
