It’s my Christmas, where I dance with magic, sin, and spirits. 😈 💕🌙🎃🙆🏾‍♀️

It's kind of like dance clubs - I can see how it's fun for lots of people, and I'm glad they have a good time. But I don't personally enjoy it either, and, similar to dance clubs, I particularly don't like the fact that people will automatically think you're some kind of reclusive loser if you don't like it. It's just not my thing. You're not alone, SVP.

I hated it until I had a kid. She loves it and I love her loving it. Plus I just sit around and drink wine while she has the best night ever!

Halloween is the greatest. Had awesome memories dressing up like Stimpy three years in a row as a kid, moved on to having nights of adolescent adventures filled with eggs and shaving cream and even the first time I smoked weed was 8th grade Halloween, and now fast forward to having kids of my own where I’m
the class mom helping with school parties and watching their faces literally light up with joy all day. The whole neighborhood comes together to celebrate and make it magical for the kids. You even get to be a kid again yourself. Do it up next year, OP. YOLO.

Booooo! Why no fun?
Sorry, I had to.

I hate it when girls/women use Halloween to dress as the sexy nurse, sexy cop, sexy race care driver. Yada yada. Pick any costume and add the word sexy to it. Any excuse

Advice needed: how do I tell my boss my team sucks? I switched jobs about 4 months ago and while I like my new clients and my manager, our team is the most unprofessional, unreliable, & incapable group of people I’ve ever worked with. They require constant micromanaging & there’s been times when I’ve had to do some of their tasks for them to avoid missing deadlines. I feel like I’m being set up for failure & clients aren’t very happy. How do I talk to my boss about this?

Selfishly, my window looks out to all the air conditioning units so hoping for something with a little height.

Any recs for plants (either aesthetic or practical), planters, outdoor furniture that isn’t stupid expensive & won’t immediately die?

Hiring people from “diverse backgrounds “ will do nothing to position you as “cultural experts” when your leadership team is still comprised of overpaid, undereducated basics.
