As a recently returned Catholic, I wish more people like you would come back. It’s lonely here, feeling like I’m the only one actually trying to do what the Gospels and the Church ACTUALLY teach and not just claiming my personal politics are “Christian.” Been reading a lot of Dorothy Day.
When the rover landed on Mars, I was like, “Why does it have a parachute?! It’s in SPACE, lollll”And that was the last time I asked anything about space because that was the day I learned I am a stupid idiot.
#14 I just adore that we agree this presumptuous ass moth is a he/him
I’m having a moment because I’ve only ever seen kingfishers illustrated in children’s books, and I fully thought they were the size of, say, a large pelican.
Watched with the sound off. Assumed it was a fart. Still worked.

But dads are, so
I’m a Christian and I try to live by Dorothy Day’s truth: I only love God as much as the person I love the least. Sorry you got ambushed outside a Cheesecake Factory :(
We’re definitely thinking about changing the name, since we didn’t choose this one and he doesn’t respond to it yet. Buuuut we started calling him Bubby today, so that’s sticking.
I did, but this made me doubt it for a hot second
Although I agree with this sentiment/true fact 100%, I have seen a million posts like this and zero pundits using any of these phrases. Is this happening somewhere that I just haven’t seen?
Cults believe it’s ok if the dear leader does it
Not to be weird but I would die for Hank
I had a job where I had to be Sharon and I was the one who left as fast as I could. Hell nah.
Waiting to find out what fresh demon will replace him
#32 My hungry ass thinking this was a croissant
Five, SIX, seven, eight!
#9 As a Democrat, I rejected Bill Clinton a long time ago. Disgusting predator.
Investigate Melania
#21 One day I was packing haphazardly and leaving things behind at a school I had blessedly quit. I happened to see an old colleague from the school I used to work at coming down the hall, dressed for an interview. The principal here was poaching teachers from the more successful school down the road. I told my colleague to come see my classroom and then hot whispered, “Do NOT, under any circumstances, take this job.” He said I was the second person to say this to him since he parked his car.
May I suggest Summer of the Monkeys by Wilson Rawls next. I just read it with my 6 year old who loved Charlotte’s Web also. It’s by the author of Where the Red Fern Grows, but it’s a comedy, not a tragedy. Happy reading!
We don’t deserve dogs, but I’m so glad she was yours and you were hers.
I am a practicing, enthusiastic Catholic in the USA, AND THIS IS BAD NEWS
#29 Took me a while to realize my parents started this work on their own by not beating me like they got beat. As much damage as they did cause me, they deserve some credit for doing something different. They did their best, and so am I.
I think the point is, he wasn’t actually working 16 hours. He was working 8 hours and going to his secret family the other 8 hours.
#7 It’s a huge red flag to me when a person keeps any recipe secret. My mom learned to cook from her mother-in-law, and I learned to cook from my mom. Mawmaw died young, so if she’d kept any of that a secret for some narcissistic need to be needed, her recipes would’ve died with her. Share the gift of food. No matter how insane the economy gets, recipes are free and live forever. If you think you’ll stop getting invited if you give away the secret, you got bigger problems.
Math teacher here too…Education IS a universal right, though? Just because THE privileged want to define it as A privilege doesn’t make it so.
Is there proof that the people believing conspiracy theories and anti vax garbage are less educated? Because I come from a family with a pile of higher degrees. In my extended family, the Trump voters are a CPA, workforce exec, retired education specialist, speech-language pathologist, and nurse practitioner. I think imagining that only people who fall for this garbage are uneducated is disrespectful of those who lack the formal education traditionally accessible to the privileged class.
This might make me feel better if I, someone who has never voted for the guy who’s tanking these folks’ retirement accounts, didn’t also have a tanking retirement account. And also a tanking education savings account for my kid. While everything gets more expensive. And college becomes less and less affordable. And I had to sell our family home to have those accounts in the first place. Nah, this doesn’t make me feel better.
This, while true, is so often used to make people shut up within systems of oppression or toxic workplaces that it’s an immediate red flag for me when someone says it.
