i always thought of a king sized bed as being a bit bigger than a queen, but now that i have one, i can tell you that a king sized bed is an absurdity. i can sprawl out, and my husband can sprawl out, and the cat can sprawl out, and none of us are touching. i reach out in the night, and find only pillows and plush walruses. i reach further and eventually find his elbow. he rolls over the comforters to try and find me. “i have crossed oceans of bed to be with you,” he says. there is a vast expanse of bed untouched, unmapped, unexplored. the cat is still trying to sleep on my face.
lots of folks saying “oh you should see the california king” but
in a california king we would actually be four inches closer
maybe they’re putting their california kings sideways
Consider though: the Alaska King.
i can’t believe i have to buy a new mattress AGAIN
the Alaskan and Wyoming King bed sizes are aptly named, as they are both very large but each contain about like two or three people
a jersey king is a broken futon with five drunk people sleeping over on it
^^this fucking killed me
you mean there’s beds that are ACTUALLY JUST SQUARE?????
The reasons why I think that Persona needs an adult team again in the future like in EP:
Adults do have to adapt and “wear masks” as well. In my opinion even more than teenagers since life becomes more and more complex the older you get and as a teenager the chance that you are still sheltered is way higher.
Also your world view becomes less and less innocent as well.
Another point that EP also included a lot:
Your life probably won’t turn out the exact way you imagined. It may not be your dream life but you have to adapt which leads to more masks or you can also learn to appreaciate what you have or attempt to change.
It’s World Mental Health Day! (October 10th.) So I thought it might be useful to compile mental health resources for the Jewish community into one post. If you know of any that aren’t listed, please feel free to add them.
RELIEF – connects/refers Jewish people to therapists and other
mental health resources (focuses mainly on the frum community)
Elijah’s Journey – suicide prevention for the Jewish community (Facebook page)
The Aleph Institute – provides spiritual support for Jews in
institutional environments such as prison, health facilities, and
rehab
No Shame On U – aims to de-stigmatize mental illness by providing
comprehensive education
OHEL – comprehensive services for those facing mental health issues, with professionals fluent in English, Yiddish, and Hebrew
Yad Rachel – for mothers facing postpartum depression, also helps educate family and health providers
