- Comment on Is flirting redundant? 1 day ago:
Attractive is not the same as good-looking. Nice, fun people are attractive. Assholes are ugly.
- Comment on Ask the crickets 2 days ago:
I think that’s how we got fahrenheit.
- Comment on Cat door in window 4 days ago:
Did a little browsing online and learned about cat fences and rollers. Wondering if i can just attach plexiglass to the top 2’ all the way around, so it’s too slick for then to climb. It’s a small sideyatd - about 20’ x 10’, with a brick house on one long side.
- Comment on US | Trump Reportedly Greenlights Plan for US Attack on Iran Without Congressional Approval 5 days ago:
And they never declare war. We have conflicts and situations but never war- too much paperwork.
- Comment on Cat door in window 6 days ago:
That’s a good idea. I bet i can find pics or videos.
- Comment on Cat door in window 6 days ago:
Seems fine. If you don’t need to see out that part of the window you could just put the flap in a piece of plywood. Check the scrap bin at Lowe’s for one that’s close to the right size. Maybe put adhesive weatherstripping around the edge to hold it in well.
- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 6 days ago:
As a mom of men, it has always concerned me that, while we were supporting our girls, we left our boys to flounder a bit. We spent so much time telling girls that they could do anything and they could be ‘just as good as the boys’ and talking to women about glass ceilings and ‘don’t let the man keep you down.’ What did we tell our boys or rather what did they hear?

I don’t know. How do you teach empathy?
- Comment on If a sandwich is defined as any food item between two pieces of bread, then a layer cake is a type of sandwich. 6 days ago:
In my house most baked goods are eaten without a fork, one small sliver/square at a time, while standing at the counter and repeatedly saying, “I’m just going to have one small bite.”
- Comment on Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me? 1 week ago:
I’ve heard people say that things are spicy on the way out but i don’t really understand what that means. Spicy doesn’t bother me, but greasy, smoky, and dairy kill my stomach.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Yes. Get out on some rural roads with a friend if possible.
- Comment on If youre bi do you have to prove it? 1 week ago:
You never have to prove anything. You don’t have to have a label. You can just go through your day and smile at anyone you like in the moment.

When you’re fancy enough to bowl in your own.
- Comment on Why are you here and not on Reddit? 2 weeks ago:
Upvoting here is more “thanks for sharing” and less “i agree.”
- Comment on Why are you here and not on Reddit? 2 weeks ago:
I like to chat for free instead of for someone else’s profit. Also, theres a sightly higher class of BS here. And better punctuation.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I shared this with a friend, who has 5-10 more years to work and i thought she would respond about retirement. Instead she said that’s how she feels as a mom to adult kids.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I have 2-6 years to go. I really like the work but admin is becoming increasingly difficult to tolerate. It makes me sad to think about someone else helping my school kids because i bailed on them. Someone said you sound workaholic but it’s really just about feeling needed and productive and helpful.

We find food because men -
1- keep asking what there is to eat, and
2-can’t find things in the panty or fridge without help.

Turn your radio or TV up. They will get the message that if they can hear you you can hear them.
- Comment on What is this called? 2 months ago:
Movies or theater, where the temperature fluctuates and it sometimes gets chilly, then you can wear it if it’s cool outside afterwards and it’s not as bulky as sitting on your coat in a theater chair.

- Comment on Australia | Worse than Russia? Voters fear Trump’s America 2 months ago:
As an American, i believe everyone should shift away from us. We’ve shown that we can’t be trusted. Hopefully this will pass, but until then we need to be put into time out.
- Comment on Mexico bans junk food sales in schools in its latest salvo against child obesity 2 months ago:
These types of bans are rarelt effective. My school banned sodas in vending machines - replaced them with diet soda and non-carbonated sugary drinks.
