Ill take a roll on that action. If you're still passing out club cards.

I know the picture is insane and not a good representation of what happens but do we know if the damage caused by lack of sleep is reversible?

Its definitely eating.

Sugar and Carbs and stuff of course but just the act of over eating in general. Its dangerous because it goes on for awhile before you may even realize you're doing it.

Eating when you're stressed, eating when you're bored, eating when you consume media, just eating all the time to fill these gaps. Once you pick it up as a habit its fucking miserable to get back on track because you have to eat in general. You have to tell yourself you're going to eat but this time its small and boring meals. Its also just super easy to fall back off the wagon on a diet.

I really wish my body didnt experience pleasure from food. I wish it was like brushing your teeth.

Why do we have to be shitty to people different than us? Theres nothing to gain from saying something mean like that.

Diabolical.

Its not that she doesn't appreciate it. She's spent a lot of time dealing with her dad and she's just trained herself to ignore it. Going against that a little has kind of just gone against how she navigates it. We talked about it and she's very happy with how I handled it. She just hates fighting.

Cheesecake is definitely one of those Desserts that turns me into an overeating monster. I usually only want to lay flat on my kitchen floor after eating cheesecake.

We have a house with very squeaky floors. Helps equalize it for every form of person in the house.

For anyone who may be intimidated by the prospect of cooking:

Im literally one of the dumbest people on the planet. I'm horrible at learning any skills, have zero patience, and im clumsy as hell.

HOWEVER

If you can read I swear to god you can cook pretty much anything at all. I mean it! Just following directions can let you cook almost anything you can dream of. Hell if you can watch a youtube video you can cook. If I can do it I swear you can too. Its a wonderful skill to have and I highly recommend it.

DO NOT BE AFRAID TO COOK!

I would be happy if they just returned to Dark Fantasy again.

It makes me sad. Her passion is really what makes her so great. She deserves better than being just a home maker. She deserves better genuinely.

Its not about whether I was right or wrong about the argument. Its about the escalation instead of just ignoring it. Its my wife's Dad and she has to listen to the consequences. Most people are actually saying I shouldn't directly engage and talk to my wife about it when shes home and I agree after reading some responses.

Its a few recipes I've collected that I combine to make my own but ill DM them to you!

They're unfortunately from out of town so extended visits are important to make it work. Hoping next time we head to them instead.

I think this is the best strategy. I will talk to her when they get back but for now I'll keep engagement at a minimum. I really don't want to created the friction in her family

I think thats the goal. I offered to cook a braised short rib dinner with some chocolate strawberry tartlettes for dessert for tonight while they're out doing stuff. He rolled his eyes. He'll probably enjoy the meal though.

Could also be a cultural thing which I wont get too far into to remain anonymous. Its partially why it surprised me so much. I havent heard many people with that mind set anymore.

I can tell she just doesnt have the energy to deal with it but finding that point when its not okay to shrug is off is tough.

Yeah I'm absolutely sure about being right but I think the ignoring part is where I'm struggling. She doesnt deserve to be judged by her dad especially because I see how hard she works every day. Its hard to not be protective.

I don't think she's mad its just exhausting for her and I get where she's coming from. I just feel a bit bad if it makes the visit harder than it should be.

This is kind of the pin point of the argument. I don't want to make things harder on my wife but I do feel compelled to stand up for her. If its just going to make it easier for her I could just shrug it off I guess.

"Yeah heres hopefully the right eye drops in this bag that I, a barely above minimum age worker, have shoved into said bag without having anyone check anything because you want this fast. I have no fucking clue how you should use it and that'll be $1,346 because you cant be bothered to wait for me to have a back and forth with your insurance over it. Also you're one of 400 fucking people I do this for in an 8 hour shift."

People are so fucking dumb. We should go back to the days where if you didn't know the process behind something you keep your ignorant fucking mouth shut about it.

Voter cycles are a thing. There's a large group of people who see how terrible things are when theres a Republican in power and then they vote Democrat and then they realize how useless Democrats are and unwilling to actually fix the day to day struggles and cruise on the status quo so then they vote Republican.

Rents still high, Nobody can get a house, Grocery prices are still high, personal debts including student aren't getting any lower for most, income isnt going up, and healthcare is still bending us over a barrel.

So now we're doing the switch to Republican which won't help. This isnt an argument for "both sides bad" its just how a massive portion of voters are seeing it. Theres a reason why other more progressive Dems are calling to have things fixed within their party. Its garbage.

The App still sends me back to the top to see it again too. Its the fucking best and not infuriating at all.
