“Actual woman”? Yikes.

Then take your posts down and stop spreading misinfo.

She, but thank you, this was my point exactly.

I speak the language fluently; that’s not the problem.

It’s the fact that there are a much smaller number of books available on most topics because the country is so small.

Libraries with access to the enormous amount of English language content are usually only found in English speaking countries, though.

Good luck finding more than a few books on niche topics in, say, Dutch (ask me how I know).

I deeply regret not hanging onto my US library card.

Jim Croce. He died relatively early in his career and was already an amazing songwriter. What could he have written with more time?

Yeah, I only had a handful of CDs because they were too expensive! I jumped on the napster train and got a CD burner as soon as I could.

The standard price where I grew up was $13. Feels like a steal these days.

What does the vet say?? There are no other antibiotics or painkillers available?

Jesus just go hold and comfort your damn dog. Go sleep on the floor with him. You should hope that if you are ever in a situation where you’re in too much pain to sleep, literally screaming, and desperate for comfort from the one person your life depends on, that they don’t treat you like such a burden.

Your dog is only a part of your life, but you are your dog’s WHOLE life. You’re enduring a lack of sleep, but your dog is suffering and does not understand why the person he loves so much won’t help him feel better.

Instead you’re locking him in a cage and trying to drown out his cries. Be better.

I Believe in a Thing Called Love!

I see more and more men wearing fanny-pack-like crossbody bags where I am (Holland). Hopefully it will start catching on in your area!

Or being traumatized from being autistic and getting side eyes, snickers, giggles, eye rolls, scoffs, and bullying whenever you committed some social faux pas.

Definitely not true in all of Europe. We pay in the Netherlands. In fact, I decided to go to school here since I never got to in the US, and found out I can’t even take out a student loan because I’m over 35.

Don’t even get me started on the STAP budget!

I fully believe the dental profession attracts a lot of sadists and freaks. Truly, I have had some horiffic experiences.

I think the previous generations were conditioned to accept it, because the technology and techniques were much more uncomfortable. My parents are impressed as long as the dentist isn’t intentionally injuring them, lol.

The best thing I did was switch to a practice for people with dental phobia, and they literally don’t do anything special except be very gentle, and make sure you’re well anesthesized, and communicate everything, and check in with you frequently, and give plenty of breaks. Like every dentist should do.

People should feel free to be picky about what kind of dentist they see! You can actually have comfortable dental procedures these days!
