Don’t assume you’re safe even in California
I had to get a procedure done today and made a joke with my boyfriend when they told me the pregnancy test was negative, “thank god, we’d have to find the nearest planned parenthood!”
And the (woman) nurse smugly said “well, the laws are changing, but we won’t talk about that.”
It was a cold reminder that even in a metro area in California there are people who support us losing our rights. Even in the medical care field.

I asked him how he was feeling now that I moved out. He said, “the apartment seems dirtier for some reason” …
I(25F) didn’t live with my ex(28M) but I still stayed in his apartment a lot to the point where we practically lived together. We were certainly building up to moving in together, until we broke up.
He worked a lot and because I would stay in the apartment to study and do freelance work during the day, I would also clean up a little. Even though we were both busy working, I didn’t have anywhere to drive. So I would clean his apartment for him once a week(beyond me cleaning up after my own self). It seemed fair because I was there a lot but didn’t pay rent, water, electric, etc. It was also out of love because he toured and had a crazy work schedule, and often came back exhausted. I wanted what little time we had together to actually be spent together instead of him exhausting himself further.
A few days ago he called to see when I could return his apartment key, and I asked how he was feeling with all of my things gone. He said “it feels a lot dirtier for some reason.”
And it hit me, he never even noticed that I cleaned, did laundry, vacuumed, cleaned tables, picked up all his empty water bottles, etc.
They just magically maintained themselves.
When I told him why it likely seemed dirtier to him, he was so confused and just went silent. I don’t know what that was about. But how clueless he was is baffling to me.
EDIT: I DID communicate that I cleaned during the relationship. I just don’t think he realized how much of a difference it made.
EDIT 2: idk why anyone would think I need to be reported to “Reddit cares” but I can promise you that I am fine. Stop abusing that.

Emotional Intelligence is sexy and incels can die mad about it
Incels will forever whine about how women only care about looks when that's only them projecting their insecurities.
Incels will forever whine about "white knights", when it's people being empathetic and standing up against bigotry.
Incels will forever whine about how women have high standards because they don't see women as anything other than a mommy they can fuck.
Incels will forever whine about how they aren't rich as if that would fix their terrible personalities in the dating world.
In an alternate reality where I'm not a lesbian, I'd take a man who listens and demonstrates compassion over any physical aesthetic. Weirdly enough, being a good person tends to weigh out the other stuff.
