bras are not uncomfortable

even underwire bras, like i don't understand why people say that they're so uncomfortable and they hate wearing them. i guess people mostly just say that it feels really nice to get home and immediately take your bra off and people will even say that they do it literally as soon as they get home, first thing, and that tells me that you think bras are uncomfortable, or at least a lot less comfortable than just not wearing one, and i just don't get that.

i saw a clip from a movie or show or smth (where the lady who plays regina george is the mom which feels really weird) where a mom takes her daughter to get her first bra and when she puts it on for the first time, the mom says "how do you feel?" and the daughter says "i can't wait to take it off" and the mom goes "welcome to womanhood" as if immediately wanting to take your bra off as soon as you put it on is normal. and she was wearing a training bra, so like??? there aren't even wires????

maybe everyone's just wearing their wrong bra size. if you hate the way your bra feels, take your measurements with no bra on and calculate your size and compare it to the bra you're wearing. there are websites that tell you how to do it, it's not hard, you just need a tape measure.

can we normalize NOT staining every single one of my favorite pairs of underwear????

I AM ON BIRTH CONTROL. I SKIP THE PLACEBO PILLS.

and yet, almost all of my favorite pairs of underwear get stained by my unexplained brown discharge. WHY????????? I DON'T EVEN HAVE A PERIOD ANYMORE. I GOT RID OF IT BECAUSE THIS KEPT FUCKING HAPPENING EVERY SINGLE CYCLE AND I WAS SICK OF IT.

i hate having a uterus that can just bleed all over all of my favorite items of clothing for no fucking reason

have a good day. i hope this doesn't happen to you nearly as much as it does to me. i literally cannot escape it. i want to fucking die.

did you guys know that nikki originally wasn't supposed to wake up at the end?

in the original script, wish nikki was supposed to just kill herself and that's how the movie would end.

apparently they only did ONE take (the one that stayed in the movie) just to see how it would go and everyone liked it! but it wasn't in the original script

i think that it's a better ending than just her killing herself. it makes the story just that much more horrifying.

what are your thoughts?

menu down on grubhub?

i tried to order panera bread on grubhub at like 8:30 and it just wouldn't show the menu. it said it was "not available right now" but like WHY?

no other information given, and even ordering food i had ordered before was not possible. and then 15 minutes later it was "closed" (but not actually because they close at 9) and i definitely couldnt order then.

did anyone else have this issue?

some gems from my girlfriend and i's text messages since my comment with the first photo got famous

i'll admit most of these are readable but they're still funny

or maybe i'm just used to it so i can decipher her code

edit: PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU COMMENT

couple of things, because i am getting comments constantly that are all just negative and im tired of it. im also tired of answering the same questions over and over.

i posted this on this subreddit because it fits the subreddit and i thought most people would find it funny. jfc was i wrong. you guys are exhausting.

1- no my girlfriend is not illiterate. she is one of the smartest and most knowledgeable people i know (not that illiterate people can't be smart or knowledgeable, but it does tend to mean they didn't get a good education which is unfortunate). she reads and writes poetry and she loves linguistics. she likes to learn a little bit of a lot of languages. she knows a very good amount of french and she can read latin pretty well. she used to be conversational in esperanto but she has since stopped practicing that one. she is still pretty good at norwegian even though she learned that a while ago. she is currently learning greek and arabic. she also knows a decent amount of finnish. i'm probably missing some but you get the point. she also does coding and programming and has been since she was 8, something that would be pretty hard to do if you were illiterate or a bad speller because typos and writing commands to computers don't really go hand in hand. computers don't tend to easily recognize mistakes. so i can guarantee you she knows how to spell and read. also, no, she is not dyslexic and she already wears glasses. and english is her first language and mine as well.

2- no, she is not on drugs or alcohol. we are 18 and 19, and therefore not of legal age to drink, and we are both pretty straight edge and don't have any interest in drugs or alcohol.

3- she DOES NOT type like this all the time. if you think about it for even a second, that fact would make sense. if she did type like that all the time, why are almost all of the screenshots in this post of only one or two text messages each? don't you think i would post screenshots of the entire screen if this was what all of her texts looked like? no, i only took screenshots of the worst instances, and that is what you see here.

4- i couldn't give two shits if you would block or break up with someone over this. that is ridiculous and very much overreacting. i love my girlfriend and we have been together for 4 years and i'm not going to break up with her over something as silly as making some typos sometimes. it truly is not that deep. personally, i think it's really rude to tell someone "your partner is so annoying. if i were you, i would fucking break up with them" over something as inconsequential as typing badly. maybe that's just me. but i'm not going to throw away a wonderful, strong, healthy, loving relationship with my favorite person because of something THAT minor. and honestly it concerns me that some of you are saying you would.

5- why are people saying that i'm also bad at typing? i made one single typo out of all of the screenshots, i really don't see what made you think this.

6- she types like this because her screen protector is messed up particularly around the keyboard area and her phone is just a little too small for her fingers. she has a habit of picking at and chipping off the edges of her screen protector, and as it stands right now, the edge is right over the letters a and m and also is covering the backspace button so it's hard to backspace. we are going to get her a new one. are you happy? update: we got a new one now. you can stop telling me to get her a new one now bc we already did.

7- since someone asked, no the screenshot that i sent her in the first photo is not a screenshot of one of our text conversations. why would i send her a screenshot of our own conversation that she has seen before and in fact participated in and say "this is what it's like reading your texts sometimes" ?? which means, in this context and probably most others, "here is an example that i found of texts that resemble how you text sometimes". also its a different color?? the messages AND the background are both different colors from those in my screenshots??

is there a way to regularly check that you're not pregnant when on birth control pills and skipping the placebos?

i mean that doesn't cost extra money like with pregnancy tests.

i'm almost 100% sure that i will never get pregnant because i'm on birth control and we also use condoms just to be extra safe but just to put my mind at rest because we have sex a lot like at least once or twice a week and theres still that like 0.3% chance looming over my head lol i know im paranoid

is there a way (similar to periods for people not on bc or who dont skip the placebos, like if you do bleed, you're almost certainly not pregnant, and if you don't, you might be) to check if you aren't pregnant?

logically i think i know that there isnt, but just checking, please don't think i'm stupid even though i am

anyone have ways to incorporate vegetables into the diet without having to taste them that much?

idk if this belongs here but i'm afraid i'll get bullied for being a "picky eater" if i post this anywhere else. i have sensory issues when it comes to food sometimes and that means that between taste and texture, a lot of green vegetables are just not an option for me when eating a lot of the time, and i think a lot of other autistics can relate. and im sure any answers to this post might help out parents or caregivers of autistic kids as well as other autistic people experiencing the same thing.

i've discovered in my 19 years of life one singular option for this: chicken noodle soup. i think the fact that i like noodles and chicken broth and sometimes chicken makes me not taste or feel the vegetables that much because im enjoying the good parts. but i dont think this really works for anything else. i like basmati rice a lot, but if you were to put, say, broccoli in it, i wouldnt like it and would eventually end up just eating around it after attempting and failing to enjoy it or just get through it. i especially hate the leafy part of broccoli and can more often handle the stems but the leafy part is where i'm told all the nutrients are. i wish i was like my mom who, despite also being autistic, loves vegetables.

or if anyone has any good tasting foods with the same kind of benefits as vegetables to recommend, that would be great, too.

edit: i forgot to mention i also HATE the texture and feeling of leaves, just any leaf honestly, if that changes any of your suggestions. i have always hated lettuce and hated that they put it in so many things like sandwiches without telling you beforehand and i never understood why because it tastes like nothing, right? until i realized it was the texture and not the taste and that texture is also a big part of the eating experience.

i put my shift up for grabs a couple days ago and i really really dont want to go on that day, but i would be willing to swap it for one of the friday shifts people have offered. is there a way that i can offer with a specific offered shift on the "cover shifts" tab to swap shifts?

is a vet record listing my cat as "spayed female" sufficient as proof that she is spayed?

i need to provide proof that my cat is spayed, and i'm pretty confident she is because the vet records say so, but we got her at a shelter like 8 years ago and dont have the spay certificate (if we were even given one, im not sure). i was just wondering if i could submit a record that lists her information and just highlight the "sex: spayed female" part, or if i need to do the whole thing where you take her in and they inspect her to see if she's fixed and then give you a document to prove it. considering the vet already has her listed as a spayed female, i feel like that's not necessary, but i dont know how these things work, im new to being an adult and handling pet stuff on my own. i dont know if it needs to be its own document.

thank you!

we have this app to keep track of shifts and swap or pick up shifts and your availability is automatically set to all day every day 24/7 forever, and the only way to change that is to submit a request.

the worst part: you have to pick out of a list of approved reasons and there are literally *3* of them.

i have dance classes on mondays and fridays and i guess i can just miss them if i have to (its only my favorite part of my week and also something i have to pay for but whatever) and luckily that's my only other obligation but what if i was still in school instead of taking a gap year? what if i had another job? what if i had to have 2 or even 3 jobs to support myself and because of this stupid feature of the app i cant set myself as not available for the times of my other job? even if it was one week of having to choose between shifts at either job, that could mean getting fired.

i am going to talk to my manager my next shift and he seems like a nice guy (i just got this job last week so idk but he seems chill) so i think he'll just let me set monday and friday to only be available the first half of the day, but what if he was completely not understanding at all? what if he was the kind of manager with a power trip who thinks you should just want to put all your time into your job? actually how does anyone navigate having school or 2 or more part time jobs to support themselves when corporations constantly forget or just ignore the fact that you are a person and you sometimes have obligations outside of work?
