To be undeniably chosen every single time is the purest meaning of love. To know that in every second and every mood it will always be you is nothing short of romance. Lust, yearn, and ache for only me, with an unreasonable thirst that only my touch can satisfy. Choose me.

Relationsh1ts 101

The only relationship I know how to manage is the companionship between Ruthie and I. Which is my dog. And yet, it is her with the unconditional love that humbles me.

I have a hard time remembering a healthy relationship in my 33 years-young timeline. But i’ve seen them though! Does that count? I’m betting you have seen them too. You know the ones. The Faithful Marriage, The Fun Dating, The Mutual Break-up, the respectable partnership, yadi-yadi-ya etc...What a tick off LOL!

This was my bulletproof belief, “When I find The Right One then my relationship(s) will be healthy and I’ll be the role model my mother always wished I would be”. That is USDA approved bull shit! And sorry mom.

So what is my dumbass point? My point is I cannot help or advise on what a healthy relationship looks like. In fact you wouldn't want me to because you’ll find your self homeless like I did. (YAYYY! Such a great time that was. NOT).

But I still bring hope! what I can share is what NOT to do in relationships. I am going to share personal experiences and circumstances from my own sorry life. Dating, friendships, courting, marriage , divorcing, friend with benefits, arguing, fighting, traveling, communicating, red flags, break ups and my personal favorite... long distance dating!! I have been in all these circumstances more than once. So you are in great hands, Friends!

So yea...

"Don't Panic or You'll Drown!" c.2001 approx. Acrylic on canvasboard. So this painting is old enough to drink alcohol now in the U.S., 21 years. My intention with this depends heavily on the title. Telling someone with an anxiety disorder with panic attacks (like me) not to panic during a time I'm actively panicking is absolutely pointless. It's like telling a depressed person (i have depression as well) to just not be sad. You may as well tell an already drowning person not to panic or they'll drown. As I have schizophrenia (along with my other diagnoses) it's like telling me not to be afraid of something or someone I believe is threatening me - it won't work, it won't stop the illness. I'll still be afraid. And these are physical as well as mental illnesses, please treat them as such. Give me some medication and when I'm down again from my delusions or panic we can talk about how to cope with these things therapeutically and effectively. Telling me not to panic won't change anything, it'll only make you feel better for "talking some sense into me", even though you haven't. Sorry about the snark, but this happens to so many of us with any mental illness, it does no good except to the ones talking. I wish it were that easy! I really do! Life would be so much better. But It just isn't like that. #art #drowning #panic #mentalhealth #mentalillness #uselesswords #takeyourmeds #notwavingbutdrowning #platitudes #darkart #acrylicart #acrylicpainting #waves #oceanpainting #underwater #breathe #dontpanic #oldpainting #riptide #sweptaway #darkartist #depression #panicdisorder #anxietydisorder #schizophrenia #actuallyschizophrenic #schizoaffective #mentalillnessawareness #whatnottodo #beneaththewaves https://www.instagram.com/p/CkrXCxePVGj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

These 3 things will KILL your heroes and infuriate your readers! Don't do it! In this video, we take a look at the TV show Ratched and how they tried to turn their anti-hero into a hero half-way through the season and why IMO, it doesn’t work. Also, we’re going to look at the Hobbit and why the 3rd film flopped.

Pleasure of Your Company: Military Etiquette and Grooming, 1970

“I really enjoy being a girl. It’s so great!”

The fashion show/dance montage features a variety of off-duty styles!

Servicewomen can wear more makeup off-duty because “you would probably look a little dowdy if you didn’t wear more dramatic makeup in the evening.”

Screenshots of appropriate off-duty attire.

Screenshot of appropriate daytime attire. Looks like Army Barbie!

This post is by Miriam Kleiman, Program Director for Public Affairs.

Military Movie Flashback: Tips for Young Ladies!

Pleasure of Your Company: Military Etiquette and Grooming, 1970

ICYMI: Earlier Military Movie Flashbacks featured two 1960s training films on dating etiquette for soldiers: Blondes Prefer Gentlemen and How to Succeed with Brunettes.

By 1970, surely the US Military couldn’t ignore the ongoing Vietnam War and dramatic social changes of the 1960s - or could it? While the Equal Rights Amendment was being debated in Congress, the military issued new films that stressed “there is no conflict between functioning efficiently as a military servicewoman and in maintaining one’s feminine identity at all times.”

In the Pleasure of Your Company, Women's Army Corps soldiers chat while they do embroidery, file their nails, iron their uniforms, and shine their shoes. They trade horror stories not about their dates, but about their embarrassing dating faux pas. Then, they get etiquette tips and a “redo” - a chance to do things the right way. Don’t worry, the women are upbeat and positive. Learning military etiquette is fun! One exclaims: “I really enjoy being a girl. It’s so great!”

The male narrator stresses the importance of etiquette:

“Good manners, social grace and courtesy are the mark of a successful servicewoman.”

“Knowing what to do in specific situations is a matter of custom, instinct, education and good taste.”

“We expect the girls to show good taste in everything they wear.”

At this crucial moment, Captain York (above right) says that miniskirts and other new styles are just fine for “off-duty” wear. The young woman tells her friends later: “Oh wow! You could have knocked me over with a pin!” She adds that the Captain is “an absolutely groovy person, and really a swinger!”

Who opens the door?

The woman only referred to as “Sweetie” shares the embarrassing moment (pictured below) when she and her boyfriend reach for the door at the same time! Thankfully, she learns that off-duty she can be a lady!

“It was so confusing... I can’t remember when I’m supposed to open a door, and when I’m not. But I get kind of confused because after 1700 hours this little pumpkin changes and becomes the lady and they stand for me, and they open doors for me.”

“I keep forgetting, he’s not an officer so I let him open the door, right?”

Don’t stress at dinner! Have your date order for you!

Sandy speaks candidly about her experience at a nice restaurant. She doesn’t know how to order -she and her date speak at the same time and confuse the waiter! Even worse, she doesn’t know what piece of silverware to use! Thankfully, “Sweetie” sets her straight and she sails through the redo.

Sandy’s mortified - what fork should she use? The outside one? The inside one?

Office party planning panic!

Fast forward, if you wish, to the heated conflict over the welcome reception for the new Sergeant Major. Should it be a sit-down dinner? A nice breakfast coffee? A dinner buffet? No spoiler alerts here!

Action scene: heated fight over reception planning.

How to achieve the perfect party flow!

“Sweetie” feels invalidated when she tells her boyfriend Tom about the party planning stress. He asks judgmentally: “What’s the big deal? So you have to set up a reception... What’s so tough about that?”

“Sweetie” details the extensive work needed to pull off such an event - they had to set up a committee to select the food and beverages, and then she needed to organize the receiving line. And yet more responsibility - she had to choose whom to invite, and then send out the invitations!

Tom apologizes: “Hey, they does take a lot of doing, doesn’t it? I’m sorry Sweetie, I didn’t mean to put you down.” “Sweetie” states: “People think it’s easy, but it’s not.”

As the narrator underscores in a low voiceover: “There’s more to it than just having a good time... Getting people to mix and mingle is a very important part of any party.”

“Sweetie” realizes in horror: “Oh no! No one’s talking to the guest of honor!”

Remember: “Good appearance, social graces, personal development of this kind pays off in career advancement, social acceptance and personal fulfillment. A pretty good deal.”

Stay tuned for the next Military Movie Flashback, another from the Military Etiquette and Grooming series, Mind Your Military Manners: Military Etiquette and Grooming, 1971, to learn:

The importance of eye makeup, how to match makeup to your skin tone, and why makeup needs to be artfully applied, because “pretty good is not good enough.”

Why “for many girls the daily shower is a new experience and one they don’t welcome readily.”

Why “You can’t get by with deodorant alone” if you want to smell clean.

Why you need a professional cut and styling, not DIY.

Pleasure of Your Company is one of thousands of US military training films on topics including dating, STDs, and “good hygiene.”

First retail job...a mess.

If you asked me at 16 if I knew I was going to be a store manager for a luxury footwear retailer at age 29, I would’ve laughed. I went to Frank Sinatra School of the Arts with a major in Theater. I always knew I loved retail/fashion, but still had this dream of becoming a television broadcaster. That all changed when I started my first retail job with Abercrombie & Fitch in 2007.

A&F was one of the worst retail jobs I have ever had. Keep in mind, the only job I had before this was at Taco Bell and had such an amazing experience. I mean, who doesn’t love free food at 15? But I digress. After a few shifts at my new retail job in Roosevelt Field Mall, I was miserable. The manager’s never remembered my name, I always got stuck with terrible shifts, and often times they would just put me in the stock room without any training whatsoever. To my surprise, the only part I enjoyed was the customer interactions. I assumed A&F customers would be difficult, but I was pleasantly surprised.

When I quit only 3 months later, I knew what I did not want to experience in my future career. I knew that if I was going to continue in retail, I wasn’t going to invest in a company that treated me poorly and often reminded me how replaceable I was. That is what motivated me to learn all I could in retail. All the negatives I experienced gave birth to a new calling, retail management. So ironically enough, I have A&F to thank for teaching me how NOT to treat associates and to ALWAYS remember your team’s names. These may sound obvious, but you’d be surprised how often this happens.

https://medium.com/@lauraclick/want-to-be-more-empathetic-avoid-these-7-responses-21bb52d5d2ad

Hey all, Happy Wednesday! It’s time to see some examples of how NOT to show empathy.

I think it’s important to see examples of real life situations that can come up and where some answers can be considered less empathetic than others.

Have you ever used any of these responses? If you have, don’t worry! We can all improve little by little if we only try hard enough!

I believe in you all. Let me know if you have any questions or comments regarding your experiences with these responses! Have a great day!

Reposted from (hollywoodunlocked) HU Staff: Ariela Anís (ari.anis) Tennessee brothers Matt and Noah Colvin are now donating their stockpiled 17,700 bottles of hand sanitizer after they initially price gouged them on Amazon, which led to an investigation by the Attorney General. ___________________________________________________ On March 1, the day after the first US coronavirus death was reported, as Matt prepared for supplies they’d ordered, Noah drove around Chattanooga scooping up additional products; then took a 1,300-mile-trip (over three days) around the rest of the state and Kentucky, filling up a rented truck. ___________________________________________________ Subsequent to receiving a cease-and-desist from Amazon, condemning them for charging unreasonable prices for sanitizer, masks and other items, the brothers began to consider donating the products; which some were reportedly listed at $70 each. ___________________________________________________ Read more at hollywoodunlocked.com 📸 (wrcbt) - #pricegouging #amazon #givingtuesday #greed #donations #mattcolvin #noahcolvin #entrepreneurs #whatnottodo #icymi #tennessee #brothers #nightvibes #vibes #greedy #Coronavirus #coronavirüsü #loco #tuesday #nightmares #hustle https://www.instagram.com/p/B90mY4VnAlY/?igshid=15bs0g3kbis59

Catch me crying right at the end. I did so much work on my UA cheer uniform this weekend but I took a 2 hour break after I put the bridge for the A on the U. Swipe to see my shame. Over all though it is coming along I plan on finishing the top tonight and hopefully a costest on Tuesday. What’s the most ridiculous sewing mistake you’ve made?

UNLESS THE DENTIST is on TikTok, it’s not a great platform to get dental health advice from. This year we’ve seen a number of alarming do-it-yourself dental procedures trending, and we want to nip those in the bud for our patients. Filing teeth: a number of TikTok videos have shown teens and young adults trying to even out their smiles by using nail files to wear down the chewing surfaces. This is a very bad idea. 🚫 Once tooth enamel is gone, it’s gone forever, and amateur tooth filing can lead to fractures, tooth sensitivity, and infection. Dental health professionals will sometimes file teeth, but we are able to do it safely because we have the training and use the proper tools. DIY Braces: some TikTokers even think they can correct orthodontic problems on their own, using nothing but rubber bands. This is extremely dangerous. David Campbell tried the same thing. He noticed that the rubber bands kept disappearing at night. What he didn't know is that they were sliding up underneath his gums. By the time he realized something was wrong, the rubber bands had strangled the roots of his teeth and they couldn't be saved. 😞 Leave orthodontic treatment to the pros! DIY hydrogen peroxide whitening: some TikTokers are using 3% hydrogen peroxide to whiten their teeth, which can cause gum irritation and long-term sensitivity. This is not a safe way to achieve professional whitening results cheaply. It’s much better to ask the dentist for recommendations on whitening toothpaste, whitening strips, or professional in-office and take-home treatments. 👍 #TikTokTrends #DentalTrends #WhatNotToDo Palm Valley Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics - Official Dental Team of the Phoenix Suns & Arizona Diamondbacks http://www.pvpd.com #pvpdkids #pvpdsmiles #pvpd #pediatricdentistry #suns #phoenixsuns #phx #mydentistrocks #ourdentistrocks #love #smile #phoenix #az #goodyearaz #surprise #verrado #scottsdale (at Palm Valley Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVBej_oBRq-/?utm_medium=tumblr
