Sorry, this may seem petty, but I wanted to listen to Nobody's Girl by Virginia Giuffre. First of all Spotify was on repeat literally every 5 Seconds saying sign up for Spotify to listen to this book and then when I signed up I went to go listen to it and it tried to charge me

My family member told me about a year and a half ago that she was told by the employee that her membership had been canceled. She was rightfully very confused and didn't really know what had happened. The employee also told her that somebody had signed for her in order to have it canceled. She didn't ask to see the signature or anything because she trusted that it was a mistake.

She loves the gym, so she resigned up. We both researched it and were alarmed to see that you must show ID and sign to cancel a membership. I believe they have made some changes since, but remember, this was a year and a half ago. Even more perplexing, we saw a few stories about people who have a very hard time canceling their membership.

She thought maybe one of her exes had done this, but why would they? It's not like they would be gaining anything out of it. She had quite a lot of anxiety about this because she didn't know what happened and it was very strange.

She's still enjoys going to Planet Fitness, and when I joined her as a guest, I really enjoyed the experience, and I am actually thinking of getting a membership myself now.

With all that said has anyone else come across this? Does anyone have a possible explanation? Thank you for taking the time to read this.

My mother told me that while she was in labor with me, which was about 30 hours, the doctors and nurses were telling her she needed to keep it down because she was scaring the other patients.

This, of course, horrified me, and it's hard to believe that a mother would be treated like this during the most painful moments of her life. Have any mothers had an experience like that?

For context, my mother gave birth to me in St Louis, Missouri, in 1986.

• in Tucson Arizona sorry about that I had to post it to another community *

Enjoy the rain, everyone! I just have never seen them move in that direction. I don't know if I'm just overreacting, but I thought it was kind of cool!

Please let me know what you all think! Thank you!

My experience:

Many years ago (approximately 15), I had to get a colposcopy after abnormal cells were detected in my pap smear. I was very disappointed with the bedside manner. I do not want to call out the organization because they have helped me a lot in the past.

What happened was when I got the colposcopy done, they did not tell me much about what was going to happen exactly. They did say there would be a pinch, but I experienced excruciating pain, like very severe menstrual cramps, the worst I had ever felt my life.. I do know they can be quite painful, especially afterward, as my mother had this done as well, and so she gave me a heads up.

There was also a woman getting a colposcopy in the room next to me, and I know this because they told me this, and she was screaming at the top of her lungs. Needless to say, my anxiety arose quite a bit, and it was right before my procedure.

After the procedure was over, I experienced the usual spotting and went home with pain, but I just took the recommended ibuprofen. Everything was fine, and I did not have cervical cancer, thank goodness. This experience stayed with me, though, especially with that poor woman screaming at the top of her lungs in the room next to me. The doctors and nurses helping me were not mean, but they were a little cold and standoffish. I wish they had been more warm to me. It would have eased my experience greatly. Also, to be fair to them, I did not ask many questions as I was near a panic attack. That being said, I just wish they had explained more to me.

My mom's birth experience with me:

I was told by my mother that while she was giving birth to me that the doctors were shushing her... This happened in america. I was shocked and appalled and horrified by what my mother had to go through. From my understanding, you are allowed to make as much noise as you want! However, I have never had children, so I do not know if this is natural or how it's supposed to go.

Unfortunately for my mother, when she gave birth to me, I was her first. The pain was so severe that she now has PTSD from it. She needed to scream and scream a lot, and I was offended for her that the doctors were telling her she needed to keep it down.

I do not feel like this is normal at all. If any women would be comfortable sharing their experience of giving birth with me, I would like to know if this is a common practice among hospitals. I was also curious if any other women had an experience like mine with the colposcopy.

I have seen videos that I don't know are true or not that children are having a harder time learning because of lots of extra access to phones. Is this true?

Step 1: Wash your feet every day even if you don't take a shower.

Step 2: Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate. I use the Ped egg but there are knock-off versions you can find on Amazon and Walmart.

Step 3: Lotion your feet immediately after washing and drying and exfoliating.

Step 4: Sleep with your socks on

I had extremely dry cracked feet that would bleed sometimes once I started doing this about 3 months later my feet were very soft.

*Please don't make this political. The truth is that the Epstein files run through every political system known to man pretty much.

When the Epstein files first came out, even though they were super redacted, everybody and their mom were talking about the Epstein files, but nobody mentioned this? At least no one that I saw.
