Rental property:
Returned from a trip to find bubbling paint and pieces of the wall falling away beside the bathtub. As soon as I started peeling the paint away, chunks of the wall started falling apart. I was able to get most of the damaged stuff out of the wall and clean it up. When I opened it up, though, I found this little cavity with rotting wood that had a piece of what I think was dry wall (tore apart like cardboard when wet) nailed into it. Kinda leads me to believe that this isn't the first time this has happened. I've never had a problem with my landlord before—he always send people to repair things quickly, but he is out of the country with spotty reception at the moment, so I'm not sure when I can expect a response. I'd like to get this fixed ASAP, even if that means just being reimbursed later. Is this something I can bring in a plumber to fix and then repair the wall myself?

I may have just started, but im already seeing a small difference. No matter how small the wins, I'm taking it.

This whole thing is more of a rant, so just be prepared for that. Suggested family counseling to my mother after she flooded my kitchen today and ended up losing my absolute shit. 2 years of therapy and learning to hold my tongue and I feel like I regressed.

For context: she lives with me, I pay all the bills. She has an autoimmune disorder (not sure what yet) that causes painful flairups. After she hit me with the "I ain't reading all that" type message, I snapped. I feel like I'm losing my mind with a woman who absolutely refuses to be anything but a victim in her own story. I'm so over it.

I (27F) just started going back to the gym a couple of weeks ago, and I'm trying to lean back into what I used to do. I recently discovered I've got exercise-induced asthma, and cardio is horrible for me, so I'm mostly lifting now. Any tips or advice on how I can improve this schedule? Are some of these too redundant? Thanks!

So, I have fairly long hair (a bit longer now than shown in the photo), and I love it! I've been growing it out for a couple of years now, and it's been very healthy. I have found that I run into this problem whenever I go in for a trim, though: For some reason, many of the stylists I've visited will always insist on trying to cut 6-10 inches off and say that it's fine because I'll still have plenty of hair. I don't want to be rude, but it gives me such anxiety around getting a trim. The last one I got was perfect; the one before that removed about 9 inches without even warning me. Any advice on how to be firm but fair when asking?

**TLDR: How can I nicely ask hairdressers to stop cutting off so much of my hair?**​
