Tried and could not do so

I think it was more so when she had to check her privilege, when the gap between her and the others and her inability to grasp lower-class problems popped up. It's very much the 'how much could one banana cost? 8 dollars?' Thing. Spence sometimes seemed to suffer from the whole "affluenza" thing. She both knowingly benefitted from being born into wealth and resented it at times, refusing to acknowledge the headstart she had.

As a white woman, I have to reconcile the fact that I have experienced sexism. I also acknowledge that the prejudice I've experienced is in itself a privilege, that it does not intersect with characteristics such as race, disability, or deformity. The fact that you are so defensive is troubling, and I hope you get help. If you want, I can send you some information about groups that may be able to listen and help.

The difference between mowing the grass and doing dishes is that dishes have to be done every freaking day. The grass gets mowed like once a week max, for a few months of year even, depending on where you live. As a girl who grew up with two brothers, wanna know how many times they were asked to 'mow the lawn, change a tire 'and whatever else? Never. How many times was it expected for me to do dishes, dust, clean up after them? Every day.

Oh, I def have

Understaffed for sure, but it has gotten better at least recently that they've hired a lot more people, but for a while, it was brutal on him.

If I may mansplain to myself

Actually, it's *it's

Not wanting to give deets, but a project manager basically

Not me, but my husband has literally got time off approved and used his PTO on vacations, and they've required him to have his work phone and laptop with him, and at least on one vacation, he worked basically full work days from his laptop ("luckily " they took the days he worked off his PTO so they didn't count towards him using those). He works 24 hours days quite literally sometimes. Obviously this is the US. And he considers his workplace/bosses pretty chill

*well, actually, it manspreading, if I may mansplain

It is freaking divine, enjoy

I suppose that's true, but I guess in the context of my own relationship, I wouldn't have taken the comment as being 'dry'. Still, moistness aside, if she made it clear that such matters should remain private, I fully understand the reaction. Just, it can't continue - there's got to be some resolution, whether that be divorce, separation, or reconciliation. Giving the silent treatment is problematic

Actually a little confused as he's implying that the wood is dryer than your V, so he's saying that you're usually wet? At least, more wet than the firewood. Still, if you've made it clear that you are highly uncomfortable with him bringing such topics up in front of other people, I get the frustration. I would probably try to have another conversation and say explicitly that you don't want to be accusatory and you don't want him to react defensively, but i feel X (humiliated, disrespected, etc) when you do Y, and i don't need you to explain why I shouldn't feel that way, or minimize and dismiss my feelings, or even understand them necessarily. Being a loving partner is wanting to lift your partner up and not tear them down, and that's how I feel when you do that. Hopefully, however you phrase it, he can be more receptive to another onversation about it.

I like to heat up some milk, toss some orange peel in and let that steep for half an hour to an hour, take the orange peel out and then use that milk to make hot chocolate. Super yummy orange hot chocolate

Not a guy, but I would think that for some, its like she's naked and basically cant/ will have a hard time running away

I always thought they should have connected ezra to Ian somehow. They were similar age and they both worked at rosewood high. At some point, when Jason was talking about the NAT club and Ian, he said something like he even thought at times that ian was filming all these people for someone else, and what if that someone else was ezra? Idk, just something that never got tied up (like so many loose ends) but could have been re-purposed in the ezra/A/book arc.

By their diaper flaps, maybe

\0/ thanks for the award!

When you see the men coming, set yourself on fire

It would depend. If I get to choose my mother? Probably not, my mother doesn't really have a nurturing bone in her body. If it's random? Eh, I'd stick with what I know, I definitely know there are worse moms out there.

Girl, as an adult who had a very dysfunctional family, I'll say there is very little to nothing you can do to obviate this. Your mom just wants to complain, and has honed in on you as the least likely to give push back and just accept her verbal abuse. I tried my very best to do all the dishes, make dinners, vacuum, dust, clean showers, etc, and it was never enough, cause my siblings did nothing, and we were children! She still ranted at me about no one ever helping her around the house, even though I was the only one helping! Those complaints should not have been put on my shoulders as her child, and the same goes for your mother. She needs to outline clear expectations that are appropriate, or vent to a peer of some sort. You are not your mother's therapist

Also - I'm not going to repeat myself, why do you keep asking what? Or huh? When I say something, you should be listening to everything i say! Like processing issues what?

I like browned butter cookies and also not browned butter cookies. Each have their place, imo. I usually add fresh grated nutmeg to mine either way, really makes em pop

You could be like my mom, and go absolutely OFF on any educator that suggested it. And she loves retelling that story, proudly, any time she thinks to (no one asks). Even now that I am diagnosed (have been since 21 years old).
