You know, I think this is true for many, but there are good employers out there, too. I try to practice it as much as practical within my business... and I know other business owners that are doing likewise. I'm paying some to be off work because they're high risk, have let others draw...

Meanwhile, in our country, we had to actually tell people not to drink bleach. Sadly, there will always be stupid people. I think schools should teach logic. Many years ago I took a logic class in college for my second required math class. We all assumed it would be easier than finite... of...

I think it's a sweet, thoughtful thing to do. And I think it would be fine to say you love him. I hope doing it brought you some comfort, too. :)

I can relate to Charles in this situation. When I am unwell, whether physically or mentally, I prefer the familiarity and comfort of my own home. And, I prefer more solitude. I'm a caretaker by nature, and caretaking others while I'm unwell just exhaust the resources I need to heal. This is...

Many people without underlying health conditions, including children, have died. Young, healthy medical personnel have died because their viral loads were so high from caring for the sick. Pregnant women with no underlying health conditions other than pregnancy, have died. People died who likely...

The flu doesn't run rampant through nursing homes and assisted living facilities, killing dozens of patients and workers in one facility (as has happened with COVID-19 in numerous facilities here in the US and other countries, including one a few miles away from my home.) Those 600,000 deaths...

Are there any therapists on your health plan that do virtual visits? Therapy has been helping me stay sane through all of this...between the pandemic and the break up with Punkrock, it's no wonder you're struggling. Maybe you could check into therapy?

Happy late Birthday, Evie! I'm glad you've had some decent days and you've had good connection with Puck. Is Erotic Hypnosis a new thing for you? Or just new for you and Puck?

I am so sorry about your friend's wife and your uncle in law. It is a really difficult time. One of my children and their partner has it. Their symptoms are so different from each other. One had no fever at all.... but between them they've had just about all of the non life threatening...

Can you do virtual therapy? Its really helping me. I don't really think of relationships as failures just because they end. And I really don't think your love was a lie just because PunkRock has had some doubts the last year. Circumstances and relationships change. The only constant really is...

I think the financial contribution What Happened is referring to is the monthly amount PunkRock contributed towards the mortgage/ utilities, etc.... which basically is no different than paying rent (and is silly of WH to keep asking!) How is Dark Knight handling all the changes? That would be...

I thought if one person in the house had it, the entire house had to quarantine for 14 days to prevent spread? A coworker's wife was exposed so his entire house was told to quarantine for 14 days regardless of whether they are symptomatic, or essential workers? If his employer has 50-500...

I am so sorry, Vicki. It is very scary. My company is considered an essential supplier so we won't close; however, I've told all my employees to do what they need to do for their families. Two of my three kids are in high risk professions that can't shut down, both in larger cities . I'm...

It is scary and frustrating. We've wasted all this time that could have been spent preparing and gearing up production of safety supplies for the first responders and medical professionals. The probable cost in lives (not to mention the financial fallout) boggles my mind. My industry is one...

I am so sorry, Bluebird. For you and for BugGirl. And AntMan. I imagine right now is a difficult time for recovering alcoholics and addicts, as it is for all of us. That said, he is putting your family at risk and triggering you emotionally. I hope BugGirl doesn't waver on her decision to let...

I have an elderly parent in failing health living with me so aside from work and picking up groceries, etc, I'm staying home and not dating except Blue (who is being extra careful due to my parent living with me.) I wash my hands frequently and carry hand sanitizer when I'm out. The...

That is creepy and gross. Idk if we left too early or if there club we went to just has a different vibe but thankfully I didn't witness this. Just lots of sex, exhibitionism, voyeurism, and the women in lingerie. I had drinks with a man I was really attracted to who was a swinger (not at the...

That makes sense. Honestly, if it were my kids and my partner was unwilling to compromise, I'd probably be moving out. I realize that I'm more cautious than many. ETA: My son's room mate hosted a guy he'd met only once before. The guy seemed rational but after two drinks went crazy, started...

I went to a swingers club in another city with Blue once. Everyone seemed friendly and they had a big presentation on consent during the mandatory tour for all visitors that reminded me a lot of the discussions on consent in various poly groups I've attended. We didn't stay long because it...

I hosted when my kids were elsewhere.... a sleepover with friends, their father's house, or grandparents.... until the relationship was more established. Then I'd introduce my kids and we'd all hang out.
