I love these critters. Thank you for leaving me a delightful little treat. I wish I could pet them.

I hear that within fan communities, the “original” ships of Kirk/Spock and Scully/Mulder remain favorites. I also asked one of my Millennial assistants, who said there’s nothing quite like Destiel or Dramione. I’ll lean towards any of those!

Have your friend visit the counseling center (or call 617-552–3310, extension 2) right away and ask for a Psychological Emergency Clinician (PEC). More info: bit.ly/bc-pec. If you’re interested in longer-term skills & training for suicide prevention, this mental health & wellness page has strategies and training opportunities: bit.ly/bc-mental-health-wellness.

Sexual orientation is not tied to a single gene.

It depends on the day and on the question. 

It depends on so many factors that you really ought to have a lot of conversations about it with people whose judgment you trust. In a general sense, it’s OK to do whatever is best for you, of course.

Meowl is a beautiful creature! Thank you for this exquisite drawing!

There’s nothing quite like being with a friend. I’m sorry they’re away, and hope you can be reunited soon.

Treat it like real grief, because it is. There’s no set timetable for processing a loss, you sort of have to work through it. Talk to friends about what you miss. Do things that make you happy, even if you’re not sure they will right now. Feel your feelings and you’ll move on when you’re ready.

I think you’re great.

😛😝😜🤪

Why thank you! ❤️

I don’t know him personally, but I’m familiar with his highly publicized research about gambling & other vices.

I have to admit that although I find the social phenomenon of AI brainrot intriguing, individual brainrot images seem to me like flickers signaling the potential collapse of a meaningful or useful internet.

What are you most excited about? I’ve heard it’s good to find side-hustles based on your interest or on your time. Restaurants are often a good option, but there are summer historical tours, internships, tutoring, and all sorts of outside options like lifeguards or yard work.

It seems like this has been a hot topic on the wall lately. Remember, when it comes to privacy, walls are your friend! Roommates should arrange for some kind of signal. An old classic is a tie (or something) hung from a doorknob, but since cellphones and texts exist now, those are a good option. IOW, use such an event to prompt a conversation about how to avoid it happening again.

If you and your boyfriend haven’t discussed marriage before, I suggest you ask him what his views on marriage are and when he could see himself getting married. Suddenly sharing that you want to make a big life commitment without checking that he is on the same page is likely not to end well.

Hello! 

I personally don’t think “fatal fantasies” are cheating, but that’s how I interpret the song. Taylor Swift has such a way with lyrics about inner conflict. 

I’ll withhold judgement until we know more. The only version of events in the news so far is quoted from the FBI’s criminal complaint; neither Judge Hannah Dugan nor courthouse officials have spoken to the press.
