Constantly talking about skinny dipping and having sex in public. Looking at million dollar vacation homes for the lord
I’m staying up way past my bedtime to get some work done and have discovered that HGTV after 10 is like…HGTV After Dark? People buying houses in tropical locations are super horny, apparently.
Oooh, they just revealed they’re evangelicals. N/m totally tracks.
He’s such a good actor that I thought he was the epitome of evil when he played Rooster in Annie.
Shoot, I’m a native Georgian and it bugs the hell out of me; I cannot imagine being a native Pennsylvanian and having to see that in the state where the decline of the confederacy became inevitable!
Wait, now I’m getting some information that indicates the confederates may have actually lost that battle
I’m in a parking lot and have counted 2 confederate license plates, which makes sense, as I am in the state where the confederates famously won the battle of Gettysburg
There is no plan for Gen X & elder Millennials who aren't saving a million or more for retirement.
We're watching senior (Boomer/Silent) unhoused numbers skyrocket. Yet another reason why xenophobic MAGA policies are fatal. Aging populations NEED immigrants.

I finished this book in less than 24 hours and then picked it up and read parts again. This movie is going to be amazing.
Jesus, this man’s father based a whole presidential campaign on uplifting the forgotten and marginalized in the US and his son is just fucking awful
Probably right given that he definitely seems most likely to vote out of spite towards a particular justice and is such a pick me that flattery and “giving him a win” probably goes far
I’ve never lived in a fully walkable area and every time I go to NYC and walk everywhere (unless I need to take the subway, which is usually accessible within a block!), I fervently imagine how great it would be to be somewhere where I would barely ever need a car.
Actually, Cato, that’s exactly what it means
But what does the head of the Church of England say?
I watch the last scene in the movie if I’m just at a point where I need to cry.
Whomst among us
WOW. I have a freshman 45 minutes away and the only times I’ve been on campus since move in has been to pick them up or drop off medication that was sent to our house. That is insane.
Also may be worth noting that after January 2021 Bazelon’s co-host on the Gabfest had a weekly Breyer retirement update until he announced his retirement!
Now we just wait to see who goes all Henry II first.
I just heard a quote from the VP at his appearance last night at my alma mater that suggested the Pope lacks the knowledge about the Bible and the Catholic Church that JD, a Catholic for 7 years, somehow has.
lol to the Catholic for Catholics president on WHYY right now citing closing border as a good thing for Catholics
There’s a house my husband passes every day for work that had two big Trump banners in the front yard. We were gone for a week and then went past the house yesterday and they were gone.
Someone emphasizing or ignoring religious texts when they do or do not fit their narrative? Well, I never.
Given the extent to which Christians evoke the Ruth and Naomi story or, like, the Song of Solomon, you’d think someone would have thought of this.
IKEA has lots of glass containers of various sizes that you can buy plastic or bamboo lids for and they’re a pretty good price. I’ve replaced most of our plastic storage with them.
This is the case with my kids’ friends, too, and, as someone who went to UGA, mine are only looking at small liberal arts schools (my older one is already at a school with ~1000 students) because the differences in experiences are so vast.
My BIL is there and I hope he got to see it in person!
OMG this takes me back to working at the Athens mall in college in 2001/2 and hearing All You Wanted like 30 times in an 8 hour shift.
Then he turned on his lights to pull me over and when I asked why he said b/c I’d run a stop sign. I told him there wasn’t one, so he checked to confirm. His reaction to coming inches from totaling my 1991 Dodge Colt? “My bad.”
When I was heading home after work once in HS I went though an intersection that had a stop sign for traffic moving east or west but not north or south. This was in my neighborhood, so I knew where the stop signs were. A cop was at the east stop sign and almost hit me because I didn’t stop.
