Read it and weep. But in a good way.

[The Readiatrician- not here anymore @readiatrician]

I said goodbye to a patient a few years ago. She didn’t die, she just got old. I treat patients to age 21 and they move on. When they do, I joke, “well, I did my job! I kept you alive until adulthood!”

With this kid, it was not a joke. 1/

@jrome58 Sports were the most popular after school activity at my high school, but I was with my fellow nerds in broadcast journalism.

Things men have the audacity to say to me on a date, part 5:
Him: I haven’t gotten a pet because I haven’t given up on people yet.
Me: You know I have two cats.
Him: And why did you get them?
Me: For companionship.
Him: Exactly.

Things men have the audacity to say to me, part 4.
Him: I’m sorry you felt attacked by what I said, but did you stop listening to what I was saying because of it? You just thought about yourself and your feelings. What about me?

[Meg Mardian @MegMardian]

@dungeonbrawler It was just one 🙈

Now that I’m dating again, I feel like I should make a whole series called “Things men have the audacity to say to me”:
Example 1. Me: we live in a patriarchal world.
Him: you think we live in a patriarchy?
Me: you don’t?
Him: no.

[Meg Mardian @MegMardian]

It was the “Bitch, run. Save yourself” that really did it for me. New best friend material right there 😂❤️

[Meg Mardian @MegMardian]

The highlight of my date with this man was the angel of a woman having brunch next to us by herself who slipped me this note as she was leaving. Bless the women looking out for each other.

Things men have the audacity to say to me, part 3:
Him: I’m sorry if you felt attacked when I said you’re never going to make any change happen in this country. I didn’t mean you specifically, just people like you. People are animals and are never going to change.

Things men have the audacity to say to me, part 2:
Him: I don’t consider myself a feminist. In fact, I don’t subscribe to any form of “ism” because it’s just too extreme.
Me: we just want equal rights for everyone.
Him: no that’s not what feminism is.

[Meg Mardian @MegMardian]

My high school government class was a joke. Can someone knowledgable explain what we need to do now to abolish the Supreme Court? Because clearly it’s just a joke now 😤

When your professional contacts follow you on goodreads and you mentally prepare yourself for them to realize you’ve been reading nothing but hardcore smut for the past year, and some random comics for book clubs 😆
