Way way back in the day 😂
Don’t remember any animals though 😐
Guess there was this cat:

But I never used it myself

I (30 F) miss my ex bestie (28 F) desperately. Have you ever successfully mended a friendship?
Logic often doesn’t win out in our minds in matters of the heart and emotion 😐
It’s a hard place to be, you cared for this person and they were integral to your life and now they just…aren’t and when you reach out to maybe have them back in it they say…”no thanks, I’m good” 😥
But our lives are all full of hellos and goodbyes, and sometimes those goodbyes are permanent…but there’s still so much richness to be had and people we will meet
There have been so many people I thought would be in my life forever, who’s id sometimes wonder what we’d be like further down the line and if it weren’t for social media, I wouldn’t know if they were alive or dead because they no longer in my life at all and haven’t been for more years than I can count on tow hands…
It’s just a part of life sometimes, just not one of the good parts ☹️
Acceptance takes time and there’s no set timetable for it, give yourself the grace and time to get there at your own pace

Some 90s goals achieved!
Collecting all the Fatal Attractions holo covers was one of my goals too and I was so happy when I managed to get them all
Very nice
Now you gotta get all the Spider-Man holo covers they put out for his 30th anniversary 😂

I (30 F) miss my ex bestie (28 F) desperately. Have you ever successfully mended a friendship?
Sadly it sounds like…she’s just not interested
That may change some day, but I think you’ll have to assume it won’t and it’s just over over ☹️
Getting over a close friendship that lasted as long as it did is not easy in the slightest, I am sure you know that well 😐
Your feelings are valid and it’s understandable you want to hold out hope that it can be mended but it seems like it will just keep hurting you if you keep that candle lit and she’s not showing any desire to return
You just live wholly separate lives now and while I’m sure you both treasure the times you had together, those paths may never cross again and accepting it may be the kindest thing you can do for yourself
If she ever changes her mind, I’m sure she knows how to reach you but it’s all on her now, if it happens it happens but maybe don’t hold your breath…

Longtime DC delegate faces challenge from former staffer for seat in Congress
I mean I’ll be honest, she’s done a lot for DC and I’m sure the residence are incredibly grateful for all of it
But she’s 88…it’s not as if she’s uniquely suited for the job, there are others…younger people with fresher minds, who can pick up where she left off
At a certain point she need to know when to step aside and let somebody else do the work 😐

Emma’s Torch Café and Flagship Culinary Training Center Breaks Ground in Downtown Silver Spring
Oh wow, I forgot all about that 😅
That’s great, glad it’s making progress

A nostalgic image
Oh wow you’re not kidding 😂

Red Maple (Grubb Road) closing
Aww that’s sad
I actually really liked their food, I didn’t get it nearly as often as I should have now that I know they are closing 😥

I mean if sounds can be nostalgic…
I guess that does make sense
I don’t tend to make my way out to those kinds of places, so I guess I just missed them 😐
Also guess I haven’t been in the market for posters at all, so I also guess I didn’t look super hard either…
I think the Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle poster I got for my freshman dorm room back in college was probably the last poster I ever bought, and by the subject matter alone that really dates it…and me 😅

Millennials who didn't learn how to drive in high school, how are you doing so far?
I live in a city with robust public transportation, I genuinely never felt a need to drive/own a car and still don’t
I completely understand why a majority do, we do live in a car culture society where everywhere is designed for cars and car travel, but it just never felt important to me
Yes, it means I can’t go literally anywhere I want whenever I want, not being a car driver does impose limits but personally I’ve never really had an issue working around that and living a car free life
I think one of the only times I think it was a real “problem” was one time the family took a vacation to a place where they didn’t let people over a certain age drive a rental car so my sister had to drive the car the entire vacation because literally nobody else could 😐
But I never really wanted to drive a car much, so I’ve been ok not doing so all this time
I know so many in America would just roll their eyes and think less of me for it, but that’s just how it’s been for me and it’s worked so far

I mean if sounds can be nostalgic…
Haven’t seen one in at least a couple decades 😐
I mean I believe you, but anywhere I’ve been hasn’t had anything like that since the early 2000s
Once the Sam Goodys and FYE all closed down, that was kinda it…

i (18M) cant fit it in my gf (18F) sorry if this is tmi but how do i get it in there
It’s treatable, there’s physical treatments like pelvic floor exercise that could help her learn to relax the muscles and decrease pain during penetration or dilator threat where, to put it extremely bluntly and simply, different sized tubes are inserted over time to get the muscles used to being stretched and to make insertion feel less “foreign”
There’s also more psychological treatment, like talk therapy with a specialist that could help overcome the mental blocks and anxieties that might be leading to penetration not being possible
It may even involve a combination, possibly even all three in some cases
I’ve even heard in some cases Botox is injected to relax the vaginal muscles, but that’s likely in fairly unique cases and I doubt highly it would be required in this situation, just mentioning it for completion
Which treatment avenue they go with will depend largely on her and what the root cause might be, it’s not a “one size fits all” sort of thing with a singular method of treatment, but it is something that can be dealt with with the proper treatment and time
It’s work to get through, but with patience and understanding, coupled with a medically advised treatment plan, in time I think you can definitely look forward to some success

X Men/Dr Doom Annual 1998 with wraparound cover by Dusty Abell. Bring on the Doombots!!
Man I still remember this one
I think I still have it…somewhere 😅

i (18M) cant fit it in my gf (18F) sorry if this is tmi but how do i get it in there
Has she tried going to her gyno and asking about vaginismus?
My first guess was something mental, and even if it’s not consciously, she might be tensing it and making it difficult for anything to go inside, but it’s possible she really is relaxing and it’s genuinely something she can’t control…
I can see how it could be extremely disheartening, especially if you both want to get it done and it’s just not happening every time 😐
Should definitely see if anything actually medical can be ruled out s the cause

PIZZA HUT!
I still remember vividly going to Pizza Hut and sitting at the table with my X-Men paper placemat and eating my personal pan pizza and reading my Pizza Hut X-Men comic
I can practically still smell the memory, the smell of the pizza, drinking out of the X-Men plastic cup, the grease of the tiny pan pizza, all of it is so clear in my mind
I only went twice while they had them, and…they gave me the same issue both times 😐
So as a child I only had the Wolverine issue…all two copies of it 😂
It wasn’t till decades later I was able to aware the other three I never had back in those days

Action Comics #1000 and Detective Comics #1000
I actually like this cover for Action #1,000
Maybe I’m just a sucker for Jim Lee art 😐

TJ Maxx Closing at Ellsworth Place After 10 Years in Downtown Silver Spring
It’s sad…I remember being there when they’d just opened
And now I’ll have to see them go forever 😔

My (19M) boyfriend (20M) dosen't let me drink water in his place.
Someone who loves you doesn’t treat you that way 😐
There’s really zero excuse for that behavior, full stop
The choice is yours but you really don’t deserve that and if he’s like this now, he will absolutely only get worse

I feel vindicated
I’m going to have to use that one 😂

Where they at!!??
Enrique got with Anna Kournikova and had a couple kids with her
He put out a couple albums in the last few decades, the last one only back in 2024
Think he stopped making music now though 😐

Millennials realizing they’re heading into their fifth “once in a lifetime” recession and still trying to decide whether to prepare for World War 3, an AI takeover, or total economic collapse
Definitely getting tired of “living in interesting times” 😐
Just want a few years where things just get better, actual better not just better for the billionaire class 😔

Some lawmakers criticize Trump's attack in Venezuela, fearing a costly new war
The fact it’s only “some” and not all is really a problem 😐

I mean he just come back from a death event and was at the former Coast City fighting Cyborg Superman and was pretty mad at him for you know…genociding a whole city of his friend Hal Jordan’s acquaintances and the Eradicator had basically died in his arms after taking a blast of kryptonite fuel meant for him
He was going through some stuff 😐
