I truly love your website! I have been commenting much less since I got a new job, but the Toast remains my favorite Feedly subscription. Congrats, you two!

Thanks. :) It definitely is not the case that I *have* to leave; it's not really bad or abusive or horrible or anything, thank God. Just some smaller warning signs. . .

I'm gonna ask a question that makes me feel a little sick to ask.

Say you started a job a month ago and you feel like it's not the right fit for you -- that the way it's run and your reflections on your room for growth here are giving you pause. You don't have a backup job. (Hah). What should you do?

If anyone wants to read a story about the recovery of a mentally ill bonobo named Brian: http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2014/06...

Note: some kind of troubling details about the abuse poor Brian suffered are contained within. But it does end on a happier note.

"Gaston doesn’t understand consent when it comes to weddings and he sure as hell doesn’t understand consent when it comes to voluntary psychiatric commitment."

Just phenomenal.

They also have a fabulously helpful/friendly forum, if anyone's interested.

I was just gonna recommend YNAB. It has helped me TREMENDOUSLY -- something about compartmentalizing savings and spending goals makes so much more sense to me than just looking at my checking/savings balance and figuring out where I really stand. I can't recommend it enough. I recouped my $60 purchase in savings within, like, the first week.

Late to the game (relatively), but I am kellyzen.tumblr.com. A lot of dogs, recently some Hannibal, and a lot of comedy stuff. And feminism stuff too. Will be scouring this thread for new follows! I love tumblr.

Oh my gosh, this made me laugh, but in a way where I am totally sympathizing with you. Some people *light up* in the presence of puppets? I would be awkward about it too. Who the fuck lights up near a puppet, you know?
