In unrelated news, take care of your feet lol.

I am wondering, in Kerala still daily COVID cases are more that 10k daily.
From such a small state , it seems like this would be the highest in the world these days.

I’ve noticed vaccine resistance among pet owners is growing and I’m starting to lose the will to educate people who are worried about “canine autism.” How hard do you try to inform the misinformed?

I hate to ask something slightly unrelated to this bowl. But here goes.

SO and I had an unidentified injury bleeding post coitus. While neither are in pain, we are clueless and scared shitless. Can't even share and ask anyone. New to the medical system in this country and dont think we'dwant to do ER in an ambulance. What should we do?

Thinking of breaking up with my long term boyfriend but have gained 50lbs in the 6 years we have been together and terrified no one else will find me attractive or love me at this weight… especially since the 25lbs I gained during quarantine last 1.5 years has already strained this relationship where he already loved me.

Haven’t felt any pain from China tarrifs myself. Living in nyc. Anyone else noticed an effect on their day to day?

I feel devoid of hope. No one is wearing masks even though there’s evidence that they work, and we can return to a semblance of normalcy with them. Most of my friends are going out to eat, even health professionals. I’m scared about my parents health, the economy, everything. I recently graduated and I thought that this year would be the year I would shape my life into what I want. Now I don’t know if I can look forward to anything, and all the uncertainty clouds it all.

I have really been struggling with my ADHD lately. What mobile apps or programs do you guys recommend to help manage symptoms? How do you stay on task and remain focused?

Dental question: I’ve been told I am genetically predisposed to plaque buildup in bottom teeth for some reason. I brush 2-3 times a day, floss 2-3x a day and water floss 2x a day, and I still need a dental clean almost every 3-4 months. Anyone else have this problem? I don’t know what else I can do to solve this...

Flew for the first time today. Woman next to me took her mask off immediately upon sitting down and starting chatting loudly with her son. I asked her politely if she could keep her mask on and she proceeded to spend the rest of the flight fake sneezing and laughing giving me the side eye to see my reaction. What an inspirational mother.

Who’s done egg freezing? I’m about to start.

Today Pfizer announced that trials show that their vaccine is 100% effective for teens ages 12-15. Do you think most of our students will get it for next year?

Took the GRE and ended up performing poorly relative to my practice tests (326-331 on practice compared to 323 on test day). Am pretty disappointed, but is it worth retaking the test if I’m aiming for T15 (generally)? Thanks!

Hi folks,

Thanksgiving is coming up and debating if I should invite woman I'm seeing to a family and friends gathering. On one hand we're super early into dating, on the other hand she knows very few here (foreign exchange student) and most likely doesn't have anything planned. Should I invite or not?

Hello fishes,

What’s the usual pay range for an Analyst profile in Marcus by Goldman Sachs cards domain?

I have 4yoe, current ctc 12L, offer in hand 21.6L

Never cared if the guys I talked to were “social butterflies”— I loved that about them. Last guy I talked to had a very good reputation amongst girls because of how extroverted he was and willing to help them. I found out later it was because he enjoyed flirting with them despite having a girlfriend & loved the attention. He would text them and keep in touch. I had to stop talking to him because I feared he would do this to me again if we started dating & now have trust issues. Hate this 😭

Cant we just take out Putin?

We are having a beach day at our company picnic, I have 4 large tattoos that no one piece swim suit is going to cover. They’re not inappropriate but I also don’t want to show them. Body makeup looks weird and unnatural. Thoughts?

Following the news and SCOTUS blog for the Dobbs decision like a crackhead waiting for his dealer.

Keep pp pics on my phone just incase to punish the firm for snooping

24M here. I’m in this weird place in life where I’m not really tempted to go out, I’m single, no dates, no girls I talk to, don’t go out with friends either. Life is pretty stagnant. Yes I could put myself out there and what not, but man this is getting boring. Anyone gone/going through a similar phase in life? How do I break this stagnant phase?

I’m drunk & alone at home AMA

I don’t like being around people. Coworkers. Clients. It’s so tiring to put up the facade.

Back in 2017 I quit an absolutely awful company that treated me (and all other lower level employees) like trash. We were constantly being reprimanded about not doing our job well enough, but then would also get yelled at for overtime when we tried to do our job well.
Every year since, I’ve written a 1 star review on Glassdoor. Currently their overall score is a 2.3 with a 0% approval of CEO. 15% recommend to a friend. (((Continued in comments)))

For those who settled for someone who wasn’t the one, why did you do it?

Is there a bowl for the 40+ crowd? I think we need one.

Honestly, I don’t care if my email finds you well.

Is it a red flag if someone says they don’t believe in self help books like Atomic Habits, Attached, etc?

Can I take a badge off? I don’t like being forced to be a rising star.

How to break up with my therapist? Don’t feel that she is helpful anymore.

EPP texts me all the time and on the weekends. I think she wants to get in my pants.
Ugh

A Partner of my previous company (M) and I (F) met up for a drink to catch up. Talk about work later turned into talk about our personal life, dating, etc. He opened up quite a lot about himself, even secrets. I have always found him very intriguing and attractive, even though he is 20 years older than me. He’s single at this point. We’re at different companies now.

I just want to come here to let this out. 🥵 The age gap makes this feeling quite taboo but I can’t help it. What should I do?

Sometimes I keep a jar of hotdogs on my desk because it reminds me of my childhood. I don’t eat them, I just smell them as I work.
