I REALLY want there to be some actual proof that you’re vaccinated like you have to show / swipe your phone or something in order to get in anywhere without a mask, because I know that these whackadoos (I’m not talking about the hesitant, I’m talking about the anti-vaxxer and medical freedom people) are never going to get the vaccine and I want them to have to wear masks to shop and go to movies and restaurants and stuff. And their kids too.
Btw, do you know they are equating vaccines with *the Holocaust*??? So fucked up and incorrect on so many levels it makes your head explode.
So I got a nice lady on Chat, and she told me they can send the Smoothing kit in pink and I should keep my case, round brush, and the soft paddle brush, so I’ll have a complete set in pink. Yay! It’s under warranty so they do replace. But Jesus.
Damn. It. My Airwrap stopped working and wouldn’t turn back on after I cleaned the filter. I had to finish my hair with the John Frieda, then call Support. They will replace it but don’t have the color I purchased, so it will be the black & purple. Very annoying for a product I’ve had 6 months and used 1-2x per week, AND cost that much money. I’d be happier if they had the fuchsia one in stock.
It makes your periods irregular and makes you start bleeding if you’re past menopause. And that’s if you just come into contact with a vaccinated person. There are many, many reports of this!!! Why is the media not talking about it? It makes magnets stick to your arm! It makes you keel over dead.
Yes, they like to feel they have better information than other people. That they have done their research and are informed. That they aren’t sheep. They also frankly just want to piss off liberals.
The misinformation out there is insane. I’ve been looking at this whackadoodle Instagram page of a woman who is anti-vaxx, and wow. People believe it harms your baby. It makes you sterile. It makes other people sick from being around you after you get it. It doesn’t work. On and on. Interestingly, no comment on the actual adverse events with J & J. Just utter bullshit. I honestly think the Russians are at work with disinformation, which a lot of conservatives want to believe, and it becomes an echo chamber. They are not living in reality. It’s waaaayyy beyond a debunked autism concern. It’s just complete cuckoo-town nonsense. It’s all tied in with the election lie, QAnon, conspiracy theories, etc. there’s literally nothing you can do. But I hope your great-aunt gets vaxxed and will be safe from these people.
Also, here’s the thing, they’re not exactly idiots. A lot of them are pretty educated and intelligent. It’s not even about that, it’s about a mass delusion based on white supremacy and misogyny.
Here’s why. Uber and Lyft treated their employees like utter shit during the pandemic, didn’t reach out to them, didn’t care about them or their safety. A driver told me this. There was more to how bad they were treated but I forget. So the drivers are not going to risk their health and safety driving for pennies – oh, that is it too, they get NO extra hazard pay or incentive to reflect the danger they’re in – so they just don’t. It’s better for them to stay home. I think they can still collect unemployment.
In MA too, not sure about other places, the governor doesn’t let them charge surge pricing at busy times, or at least didn’t during the pandemic.
Be wary even of scheduling them ahead of time. They still may not show. We went to Mexico in April and ordered an Uber Black the night before to get to the airport. He was on his way, on his way, then he was 5 mins away and just stopped. Never moved again, wouldn’t pick up the phone. We were like, oh fuck, we’re going to miss our flight. We ran to my car and somehow ended up still making it, thanks to TSA Precheck. Paid for airport parking, but better than fucking up the trip.
Also, we were in an Uber (somehow my husband manages to get them, though it takes a while), and the driver asked if he’d mind changing our address one street number. I guess someone had booked him for the next ride but she was 30 minutes away and he didn’t want to go that far, so if we changed the street number of our destination, it would cancel her ride.
Anyway. Cabs might be a better option now. Uber and Lyft are super shitty companies.
It’s in downtown Boston, and they are hesitant to require people to be using public transportation, I think is one big issue. You *can* drive, but the parking costs would be astronomical. So right now it’s still only voluntary to be in thr office.
Not yet! They have just sort of alluded to what it will be like when they do.
I just… don’t badmouth my spouse.
Because we don’t know your spouse. It’s anonymous.
Same with a paid counselor. They don’t know them. They also can’t gossip.
And you know what? If he’s reached this point. If he’s talked to her about the lack of sex multiple times as you guys are assuming. If she’s not been responsive to that. If marriage counseling isn’t an option or they’ve discussed it and neither is open to it. Then get a divorce! I think at this stage, bitching to friends would be more understandable, though personally I’d still move forward with separation and divorce before complaining to friends (in frickin writing). You can always explain to friends and family what happened with your marriage after you’ve decided to uncouple.
This is all why I said previously that if you are at this stage, you have one foot out the door and your marriage is toast.
Also, you guys know there’s a huge difference between joking about leaving drawers open (my thing is leaving out paper towels I used once), and confiding in friends about your sex life. The former is not going to be an invasion of privacy, the latter almost certainly is.
