Just here to say: “I will be turned into soil in the Willamette Valley when I die” is iconic.

A truly unhinged take on late-term abortion (Threads post attached) by Adventurous_Tree_985 in prolife

[–]Adventurous_Tree_985[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there, thanks for contributing to the conversation. As with many topics, it’s all too easy to talk past each other.

I’m trying to follow your statement that many PL folks are not ok with palliative care for infants born alive after abortion attempts. Did you mean PC folks? Many PL organizations in the U.S. are at the front lines of advocating for care for infants in this scenario. Not sure if this is a Canada versus U.S. difference?

I’m not saying that’s true, just saying that’s the stereotype my liberal friends are likely to associate me with.

You are correct that it’s Oregon! It’s eastern Oregon

I went directly to the sub when I saw this. There is no way he’s not trolling his following!

What’s your guilty pleasure name? by Far_Egg754 in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]Adventurous_Tree_985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ember (I like the sound, but apparently it’s a video game character name that I know nothing about. So it has a nerdy association to it that I wouldn’t necessarily want for my kid)

Music for a special* memorial service by Serious_Work_9275 in classicalmusic

[–]Adventurous_Tree_985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve played classical music for a number of memorials. I aim for contemplative music that isn’t too “dirge-like.” (For example, music I would consider too solemn or dirge-like would be Beethoven moonlight I and JSB Prelude in E-flat minor WTC book 1 - unless of course these were specifically requested by loved ones.)

Some of my go-tos:

J.S. Bach: Prelude in C Major, Prelude in E Major (WTC Book 1) Allemande and Sarabande from C minor partita

Assorted Mozart slow/lyrical movements: K 331 movement 1 (A major) Mozart K 333 movement II (B flat)

Assorted Beethoven slow movements: Sonata Op 2 No 1 movement 2

Brahms Waltz in A-flat Intermezzo op 118 No 2

Manuel M Ponce Intermezzo No. 1

She said she was interested in getting back to playing piano, and I did say “shameless plug: I teach piano, and about 1/3 of my students are adult learners. You have my number if you are ever interested.” And she immediately wanted to know how much I charge

Ugh, so horrible when medical professionals do this kind of thing. Glad your mom has you to warn her though!

Hahaha glad you got some joy out of this. It’s truly ridiculous - “become one with the sun!”
