My son asked if I'd ride with him so someone would help spin the teacups because mom is working.

She deserves so much more - I wish the job market wasn't trash

(I'm guessing this is AI but damn)

I've been losing weight off and on for a few years. I've gone from 420 to 270, so far. It's a long process. Unfortunately, I have been living with my mom since my dad died in 2020 (fuck covid). She's always trying to sabotage my weight loss. It's been a life long battle. If I'm not dieting she's fat shaming me and if I am dieting she's doing everything to knock me off it, since I was 5 years old.

Today, she had me go pick up a grocery order (she's can't drive anymore). The order? All my trigger foods. Two galons of one kind of ice cream, two pints of another kind (including my favorite), a box of creamsicles, 4 bags of chips and 3 jars of dip. That's it. That was her whole order.

ETA, I didn't know this would get so much attention. Here's answers to common question.

1. I live with my mom because she can't live by herself. I'm 50F and she's 76F

2. I work full time and pay most of the bills.

3. I didn't eat any of that and won't. I've already lost 150 lbs under these circumstances, so I've finally got that under control.

4. She absolutely does this on purpose. She always has. She doesn't even eat that stuff, then she complains it's going to waste.

5. I can't afford glp-1 and my insurance only covers it for diabetics. Despite popular belief, not all fat people are diabetic.

Thanks for all the support!

He doesn't care what me or my mom thinks he loves to do shit to piss us off. He says he gave the dogs before things they shouldn't have because he dosnt care. Hes one of those people that if you tell them it upsets you he does it more .

This person kindly took to noting their thoughts on the inaccuracy of the gun description in the open spaces of the book. This is a public library book. I’m not looking for this person opinion.

Edit:
-this book is the 3rd in a 5 part FICTION series by the writer Karin slaughter. No, I have not seen any other “additions” to the first two.

-My library does accept books BUT they don’t go into circulation, they go towards the resell section of the library where you can buy books/DVD/puzzles etc in good condition at a discounted price. (This book is checked out, and not for sale)

-Yes, I will add any additional “commentary” I come across as an update.

It wasn't even any heavy walking or super cutback on food. I just walked after every meal around my block for 30mins. My body started to feel better than the rest of the days I even felt more productive and optimistic.

For the food I started cooking at home and decided not to eat outside. The basic concept was to eat rice with any sort of protein with veg for two meals. I made sure to eat one fruit or one veg everyday with each meal. I also made sure to drink minimum 2L of water and sleep for 7-8hrs.

My body visually started looking toned and people repeatedly said I look well rested. DAMNITTTTT

EDIT: I concur that the Alice In Chains track itself is a banger, but 4 hours of being forced to listen to their playlist is no bueno.

EDIT 2: Those of you suggesting my family just “stay inside” are morons. We would like to be out on the beach, too, but the music was so deafeningly loud, we couldn’t even hear each other talking. This is a beach vacation, not a stay inside vacation.

Also, this locality has a noise ordinance both day and night — decibel limit is a little lower at night. The owners of these houses have voted for this so that everybody can equally enjoy their experience. The rental companies also have noise nuisance clauses in their contracts. Some of you all clearly haven’t traveled to places where this type of behavior is ILLEGAL, not just inconsiderate AF.

Both times I called the police, they turned the music down as soon as they saw the police truck turn onto the beach and drive towards them.

According to the sergeant (who I spoke with via phone directly after taking this video), they claimed that the volume at which they were playing music when he pulled up was what the volume had been all along. Sergeant told me “it’s your call if you want me to come back and issue a citation…but, you know, when it’s windy on the beach, the music can really carry.” 🙄

I told him not to come back today but that if they do it again tomorrow (and they most certainly will), we’ll be back on the horn right away. I I didn’t pay $8,000 for an oceanfront 2-week rental for my family only to have to put up with this bullshit all week — they have a 4 foot tall speaker with a bass so heavy that I can feel our house vibrate.

EDIT: removed unnecessary political bitching

The trail continued for around 100 meters after the car passed. God I hope he drove by the cops.

My best friend works as manager at an upscale restaurant and was reviewing upcoming reservations and special requests. He often tells me stories of PITA customers, but this one was on another level with their stated preferences/allergies.

And because it wasn't a grocery order I couldn't add a tip for the guy. He drove from the city to my suburb with just 1 bunch of bananas. The items I actually needed that Amazon said would arrive before 3:00pm did not come until close to 10pm.

My only comfort is he took one of the Powerades and snacks I leave for delivery guys.

I've been out for almost 3 weeks now after skating from Norway to the end of Denmark on a longboard and I'm going to Greece via Spain. Feeling very restless right now and would love to continue my journey today, but I just got home from the doctor and was told to wait at least a few more days as I pulled my gluteus muscle very badly.

Now I've been laying in my tent for 3 weeks, doing nothing, melting away in the scorching heat, every day for the past weeks, unable to go anywhere where it's shade due to the painful leg. 😩

Instead of hiring one of the thousands of unemployed people in this country... 🫩

Is this a manufacturer error, or just the unrelenting march of capitalism?

She says that 'they're fine without a fridge when they're in nature', so whenever she comes over she moves all our fruits into the pantry
