Desperately need them to get letterboxed, spelling bee and strands on there, too. I play every night, and it just feels wrong not being able to play right now

I’d invest in a drinking vessel with a lid, perhaps. And also, one of those zappers shaped like a tennis racket in case of dangerous critters. Or maybe one of the vacuum style ones if you’re more a catch and release type

I assumed the comment you replied to was a joke. They really had to do that? That is weird.

Damn, that sucks :(

Is it really that bad? :/

Still haven’t seen it, but I’m gonna have to eventually

Not always an option. What if you’ve just been fucked in a field? There’s no shower. Or more likely, the handicap stall at a Walmart halfway between your houses because neither of you can host, and you live 2 hours apart

I’m a little afraid to ask, but what is “dusk?”

Yeah, that’s a very good way of looking at it

It’s honestly one of my absolute favorites

The Man From Earth. It’s always felt out of place to me. I’m not sure if it’s too early or too late, but it doesn’t feel of it’s time to me.

Same vibe for The Discovery of Heaven.

Right? Such a cool name! I also would not mind if they renamed earth to Terra, though, to keep the trend. But if we keep Uranus, we should make earth Gaia, so Uranus won’t be so lonely as the only Greek in the solar system.

I may, may, be anthropomorphizing our planets a bit

Let me help every woman you’ll sleep with going forward, then. Don’t just jizz on the bed when you pull out. It also gets cold, but now it’s where you need to sleep. Lol.

Also don’t get it in their hair, it’s a bitch to get out if it dries. Invest in a daily glass of pineapple juice, though, and you probably won’t have to worry about it where to end. They won’t mind swallowing so much

I’m a genuine proponent of renaming Uranus to “Caelus.” It’s the only planet (save earth) not named for a Roman god. It’s named for a Greek god, and completely breaks the naming convention. Funny word play aside, I’d like to see it renamed Caelus.

Ever driven 45 minutes home after bottoming? It get pretty cold before you get to a shower

Look at Mr. I Can Last 20 Minutes over here.

Absolutely agree with you, but one thing to note is the existence of what’s called representative payees. OP would have likely had to sign a form for it at 21, unless they were verifiably incapacitated at the time, but a rep payee is, for an intents and purposes, the beneficiary as far as the social security department is concerned.

Which is NOT to say don’t leave. It just means that OP needs to contact social security the instant they are clear of danger or being overheard.

The moment you’re safe, contact the SSD and ask them to verify your status as the primary on your account. If your mother (or someone else) is not the rep payee, then you’re clear. If they are, you need to ask for the paperwork to transfer your benefits back to yourself, which may involve having to go through a judge. That said, keep a record of any communications between yourself and whoever the rep payee is. Ohio is a one party consent state, meaning you are legally allowed to record your phone calls as long as one party is aware and consents, namely yourself. Text based communication is easier, though.

If you are able to contact anyone (guessing you can since you’re posting this) I would suggest contacting progressive organizations in your area. Women’s shelters, even if you’re male, may be able to help you, or direct you to someone who can help. Gay organizations often have some resources in place for teens who have disowned. The DSA, the episcopal church, the metropolitan community Church, the United Church of Christ, any Sikh, Buddhist, and often Hindu community centers are also notorious for being home to progressive members. Sadly, they likely don’t have anything in place for such a rescue mission already, but they may well be a member willing to assist.

Best option is if there’s an anarchist mutual aid org near you, but that’s unlikely.

I wish you all the luck and success in there.

This also ended up longer than I anticipated going in, so posting it as a full comment in and of itself, too.

That’s funny, I just had a similar conversation with my priest this morning, when we were discussing the Bhagavad Gita!
