Reply to LPT: For the ladies. If your BF/Husband is possessive and isolates you from your family and friends, it means he knows you can find better. It's time to GTFO of the relationship. by Clazzo524
Correct. Jealousy isn’t sweet, it isn’t well-intentioned, and it definitely isn’t love. Neither is a complete lack of personal time or lack of privacy in movement, communication, or thought (aka browser history). But for some reason young people, more often than not, in their first relationships will equate those things with “ohhhh s/he loves me so much, we have such a close/special relationship”

You're absolutely right! The advice I gave above does not cover situations where physical violence or serious cycles of abuse are involved. That is a spectrum of problems I have no experience or business speaking on so I stuck to the things I do know.

And “for your own good/safety” is often the excuse given. It’s also infantilizing.

Only if you need the extra storage space. I just kind of throw them at a shelf, it's good enough.

Reply to LPT Request: How to get rid of dandruff? by ImThour
Medicated dandruff shampoo never worked for me, but medicated PSORIASIS shampoo has changed my life. My favorite is Dermarest but anything with Salicylic acid as the main ingredient works for me.

Folded sheets take up a lot less space. Though I do like the idea of putting the full set inside of one of the pillow cases. Never occurred to me.

Reply to comment by TheSensibleTurtle in LPT REQUEST: What to say when someone brings up the death of their loved one that happened years ago. by Interesting_Ad7785
This is a perfect answer. If it’s someone you feel an emotional connection to and want to encourage them to open up, adding a remark such as “I can’t imagine how difficult that must have been” or similar. This I learned from a “death and dying” class.

It simply isn’t that hard to fold them if you bother to learn how, though. 🤷🏻♀️

Prices in a free economy are set by agreement between buyer and seller. If the gate opens, the seller has agreed to your offer.

Your example doesn't really make sense because if you're staying for multiple days you have to pay for the multiple days that you've stayed not that I'll pay for the first day and possibly the last day but not any of the other days when you bring up an item at a grocery store and it's $10 and it rings up is $5 I don't really care to correct it I usually don't even pay attention to the price that closely but wait you're saying is you just don't scan the items that's the equivalent not the equivalent of scanning and getting the wrong price.

Honestly, I just wash the sheets and put them right back on the bed when finished.

I roughly fold and then roll them into the elastic part.

The easiest and cheapest solution I've found thus far is changing what I eat. Specifically, I drastically reduced my sugar intake. Sleep and exercise are bonuses but they take time that we don't always have. I found that saying "no" to sugar helped me to have a better mindset, more energy, and better focus

My friend works at a restaurant in NYC. Someone ordered delivery and the order sat there for two hours because no driver wanted to take a no-tip order
