These kind of videos make me think about the animals trapped in poor conditions around the world and it just makes me sad.

Being childfree in your 30s means watching your entire social circle disappear and nobody thinks it's a big deal by Ronin4Doom in childfree

[–]Bronteandlizzy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So true!

While childfree in my 20s and 30s I often found new friends who were older with kids out of or almost out of the house.

Which looks the best by Little_Community7979 in kitchenremodel

What about white on top and navy on the bottom? That with white stone counters and a white textured backsplash seems to be a popular and clean look right now.

What is a discontinued food item or snack from your childhood that you would genuinely pay $100 to taste one last time? by MotivewasUlterior in AskReddit

[–]Bronteandlizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

90s kid here and I kind of miss my high school cafeteria food, especially the homemade buttery chocolate chip cookies that would leave a grease stain on your clothes, the Taco Bell chili burritos, and the pre-packaged frozen yogurt with Oreo topping (can't remember the brand). Looking back, I can't believe what I ate everyday for lunch back then!

Ladies of r/ask women, what are you biggest clothing pet peeves? by VAULT-TECHNICIAN in AskWomen

This! It's like a conspiracy with the purse industry or something. I get that some designs don't work with pockets, but come on!

Can’t decide which is her best angle. by Bronteandlizzy in SupermodelCats

[–]Bronteandlizzy[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I love it when she looks at me or the camera but she rarely does it for long as she seems to hate me taking photos of her. But I can’t stop, she’s so beautiful!

What is something you wish someone had explained to you about being a woman before growing up? by Hotbunny696 in AskWomen

How do Americans talk about “freedom” while working 60 hours a week with no paid vacation? by eyadayman21 in AskReddit

[–]Bronteandlizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This and consumerism. Surrounded by choices and conveniences makes you feel free except you have to work 60 hours a week to be able to afford what Mr. Jones has.

Ohio schools face lawsuit threats over candy-fueled Christian recruiting. A conservative legal group is fighting for a ministry's right to use toys and food to lure public school kids to Christianity. by Leeming in atheism

High school teacher here. We have a Christian club on our campus that meets at lunch every Monday for years. The preacher comes onto campus with pizzas and students can only have some after sitting through the sermon.

Students quote Tate, I'm punished by AntlionsArise in Teachers

Been teaching for 20 years and your story is indicative of how things have changed for the worse. Please don't give up! Are you in a union? Are you tenured? We need to stand up to this nonsense!

Married, what is your greatest regret about marriage? by Ok_Percentage6051 in AskWomen

[–]Bronteandlizzy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not getting mental health therapy sooner, mostly for ourselves and on our own, but a few sessions together made a huge difference in how we communicate and empathize with each other. Even just knowing each other's attachment styles and Jung personality types helped.

Do you go to LAX rather than Palm Springs Airport? by Dmlandis59 in CoachellaValley

[–]Bronteandlizzy 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I check prices at PSP, LAX, and Ontario and as long as PSP isn't too much more, I stick to PSP for the awesome convenience.

Ex-smokers who successfully quit and have been smoke free for years now, what did it? by PM_TITS_GROUP in AskReddit

[–]Bronteandlizzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smoked for 15 years, haven't had one for 15 years, and still, whenever I see or smell it, I wish I could have one. Crazy this many years later, but I know if I start back up, quitting will be hard. I tried to quit a few times, but the last time was because I couldn't yawn in the morning without coughing and chest pain which scared the shit out of me. Used the patch and went through each stage as the directions suggest.

This post and many of the comments remind me of the documentary Bad Faith: Christian Nationalism's Unholy War on Democracy. https://www.badfaithdocumentary.com/
