You’ve mentioned dealing with PCOS before: what’s been your experience with that? What are things you wish people knew?

TW: Weight Loss Discussion / Passing ED Mention Hi Anon! Great ask - yes, I do have PCOS and generally speaking, I don't think it's very well understood. It usually gets a bad rap as a "lifestyle" disease and the most effective way to "reverse" it is to lose weight...while PCOS itself makes it fundamentally hard to lose weight. So it's a real catch-22.

The only thing that ever worked for me WAS losing a bunch of weight. This was back in like 2019/2020 before GLP1s were really a thing (not knocking them, they can be an excellent choice for some people with PCOS) so I did everything "naturally" but to an extent that wasn't healthy in and of itself and wasn't sustainable. I lived in the city then, alone, so I had total control over the food in my apartment, had a gym in my building, and didn't have a car because I walked EVERYWHERE. I was doing an hour+ of cardio a day, intensive yoga, had a crazy daily steps goal and worst of all - religiously ate under 1200 calories a day. I got to a point where I was borderline underweight and yet everyone in my life and every doctor was singing my praises (btw skinny privilege is so real and such a mindfuck if you've been on both sides). Since it is such a catch-22, I don't really have any great advice other than to say that you should take a healthy and mindful approach to weight loss if that's what you choose to do. I know some people have different experiences, but PCOS was never debilitating for me and the infertility aspect didn't freak me out because I was on a Single Jet Setting Rich Aunt trajectory... Which brings me to my next VERY IMPORTANT piece of advice: DON'T ASSUME YOU'RE INFERTILE. I went YEARS without a cycle and was pretty convinced my shit was totally out of order. But then I lost all that weight, ended up in a long-term monogamous relationship, and thought "fuck birth control, it makes me feel like shit and I'm infertile anyways". Fast forward to December 2021 and a date night to see Spider-Man: No Way Home and that's how I became a teen mom at 31 (very concerned about going to see Brand New Day now). I wish I had great advice but it's basically just to be mindful about anything you do to your body. Sometimes the lifestyles we are told are "healthy and RIGHT" are actually harmful and can quickly snowball into an ED. And for the love of god, use some kind of birth control.

#Anon Ask #PCOS #signed your friendly neighborhood old woman shouting at clouds #timely because there was just talk about birth control and the pull out method today #i know i overshare the lore but trying to be educational!!!#and i mean just don't get railed after marvel movies i guess #or DO if that's what you want #tw: weight loss #tw: ed mention #tw: ed

andshe-was

You're telling me that in S3 they (particularly Mike) gave Will shit for wanting to play D&D.....and then immediately in S4 D&D is of SUCH importance again that Mike and Dustin have to miss Lucas's big game?

andshe-was

Not to keep ragging on this but I just rewatched the scene where Lucas PLEADS with them to come to his game. Look, I get that they aren't interested in popularity and I'm in favor of them being themselves and rejecting all of that. BUT your best friend is standing there, staring you in the eye, and begging you to come to his game.... ...and you still don't go??????? They don't deserve Lucas. That scene is heartbreaking knowing that they really don't show up.

#Lucas Sinclair #i'm really glad he got his own storyline but idk why mike and dustin had to be such bitches #it would have been ON SIGHT for me after that

We don't talk enough about the fact that in the span of like an hour Jonathan performed amateur surgery, complete with all appropriate sanitary measures, and then diagnosed the issue with the car engine and fixed that too (almost). All of this after pretty much breaking his back fighting and killing his former boss and taking an axe to the Mind Flayer. Truly, a jack of all trades.

#Jonathan Byers #a renaissance man #he simply does not fold under pressure #my ass wouldn't have made it out of bed after the hospital fight #meanwhile my man had to be escorted out of the room for almost fainting during my c-section and can at best put washer fluid in my car

Any chance to get a lil tidbit about what we can expect in the next chapter?

I don't have anything ready just yet but I'll post an excerpt when I have a good one prepared!

#ask #about you fic

Something tells me Karen was an Avon Lady to fill her extra time once all the kids were in school.

But her family members are NOT willing test subjects. You know who is? Jonathan. He’s incapable of saying no to her, which means that when he comes to pick up Nancy, he often ends up at the kitchen table with Skin So Soft rubbed into one arm, a new cologne dabbed onto his inner wrists, and Karen patting after-shave lotion onto his face while asking which one feels “less greasy.”

Nancy puts up with it at first, but after the third time, she comes downstairs and wedges herself between them, taking the bottle of after-shave and holding it out of Karen’s reach. “Come on, Mom, we’re late. Can you please stop moisturizing my boyfriend?”

Karen relents. But only for that evening. Tomorrow is a new day, and the Avon catalog is always evolving.

Before long, Jonathan has a bathroom drawer overflowing with samples. Any time he admits he likes something, Karen mysteriously has a full-sized bottle “left over” for him the following week. They both know she orders them especially for him, but they politely play along with her excuses.

Karen’s makeup samples, meanwhile, are reserved almost entirely for Joyce. She’s forever catching her in front of the hallway mirror, one hand softly tipping her chin toward the light as she leans in close to sweep blush over her cheeks or carefully paint color across her lips. Joyce insists she doesn’t need any of it, but her resistance always disappears beneath Karen’s hands - and Karen always takes much longer than the application reasonably requires.

Years later, once they’re both widowed and sharing that little house in Montauk, Karen still does Joyce’s makeup in front of the mirror. The only difference is that now, when Karen leans back to admire her work, Joyce pulls her in again.

And whenever Nancy and Jonathan come to visit? Jonathan can’t make it through the front door without Karen taking one look at his face, declaring that the ocean air is drying him out, and disappearing to find something to put on him.

Anyways, support your local Avon Lady!

i made a post like this before but I can't find it now. so. I'll just redo it.

What's the first "big news story" you remember from when you were a kid?

It's something I love to ask mixed-aged groups sometimes because I think it's really interesting to see the responses. I've gotten answers from the Olympics of [whatever year] to Watergate to more recent stuff from my niblings.

My first news thing I remember is the OJ Simpson trial. I vaguely remember watching the news with my grandparents before that, but that's the first story I remember, in part because my second grade teacher had us go play so she could watch the verdict 😂

I remember walking down the street and seeing a sign protesting George W. Bush’s war on Iraq, so I think that.

#Oklahoma City Bombing #there's a specific story about a survivor i remember seeing on the news that has stuck with me ever since

Hiii! I'm sorry about it ik a good story takes time but do you have any idea when the next chapter will be posted? Anyways, so excited to see it xx

I'm actually working on it right now. It'll probably be a few days, but after procrastinating I'm reaching flow state. So who knows!
