I knitted Arlo a sweater. He disapproves.

@Carex It's literally not a thought crime if it involves another human, potentially one who is an adult, interacting sexually with your minor child.

That's a crime-crime.

PUPPY GET

@mietze This was something I used to struggle with. I didn't realize that just because people wanted to play pretendytimes with me, it didn't mean that they were automatically my best friends and I could unload all of my shit onto them. That really extended to all sorts of social situations, and I've learned more about boundaries since then.

Fuck standard insurance that doesn't cover fertility treatment.

Fuck clinics that KNOW you are paying out of pocket and don't bother to tell you when certain tests could be ordered by your PCP and be covered that way.

Well, that was two grand we had saved to cover fertility medication that we just had to spend on a fucking STD panel.

Extortion. This is extortion.

Update: Well, it took months and literal tears to get an answer, but someone told me that all I have to do is give LabCorp my insurance information directly. The admin team at this clinic is fucking incompetent.

tl;dr consent, motherfuckers

So I have my first real, professional, serious job interview tomorrow.

@apu said in An Apology to BSO and BSU.:

So yeah. He's a manipulator. He's a liar (he had told me he was in the Army and was injured in the Middle East, something I doubted but never asked for proof of, as an example). He will play the victim to try and gain sympathy and support only to then turn into some psycho asshole . He is absolutely someone who needs to be avoided at all costs.

Yeah, he's pulled the "staff hates me" thing with me, too. I've tried to collect all of the conflicting tales he's told about his life. Here's a list so far:

• He's from England
• He's from Louisiana
• He's a widower
• His wife died in childbirth
• His wife died from cancer
• He's unmarried and lonely
• He has three daughters
• He has four daughters
• He has two daughters and a son
• His daughters are in their twenties
• His daughters are teenagers
• One of his daughters tried to commit suicide
• He's in a wheelchair
• He was in the military
• He's in his thirties
• He's in his fifties

What I don't get is that this is MU. You don't have to tell anyone anything about yourself. And if you're going to make up a story, at least stick with one.

Arlo was majestic af today

Connor

Bonus: Merek, but it's all the same guy

Eeeeee my puppy was born on the 7th and I get to pick from the litter in a couple of days!!!!!!!!!

@Carex And you don't understand how sexual contact with an adult, even if it's text, can be a problem for a kid psychologically and developmentally, and why a parent might not want them doing that? What the fuck are you even arguing?

@cobaltasaurus Our Arlo is not going to be pleased with being a big brother.

I think the big problems with bleed come when the player doesn't like themselves, but they like their character. That's when shit gets really weird and personal and things get bad blurry.

@quinn I know I stopped logging in because this dude who I assume was also staff kept paging me with "snugs" and it made me seriously uncomfortable. Like, I was friendly to this guy, but I didn't know him from Adam. Don't snug me unless we have a rapport.

This evolutionary dead end is Arlo. He is the best.

@Lotherio We are just learning a lot about @Carex and their fucked up attitudes toward sexuality that have nothing to do with reality or the subject at hand. They have this weird virgin/whore dichotomy thing going on and they are talking like a literal fucking pedophile.

Man, I'd love a Dragon Age game without canon characters. Someone needs to do this.
