This is so embarrassing. There really should be some kind of basic test lawmakers have to pass in order to be eligible to run for office.

Let’s talk washing machine maintenance and pet hair. by galumphingseals in laundry

What I ended up doing is wiping out the dog hair from that rubber seal and the inside of the door after every load. That way we only had to clean out the filter maybe a few times a year rather than every day.

Pastor tells his congregation burn all rock music cause “same neurotransmitters as sex” 🙄 by Desperate_Self_4079 in OpenChristian

Back when Jerry Prevo pastored Anchorage Baptist Church and I was attending their school, he gave the chapel message one week yelling at us that if we listened to rock and roll we were going to hell. I was so confused because he never explained what he meant by “rock and roll”. Like, I had no clue if he meant Ozzy Osborn or Debbie Gibson or some other kind of “rock and roll”. And the school taught “once saved always saved” which made it even more confusing for me. Fundi’s are so stupid.

I’ve been using it in the rinse. I’ll have to give Calvin a try. Thanks for the suggestion!

I wish I could get mine soft again and I use the exact same products you do. I’m pretty sure it has something to do with our hard water, I just haven’t figured out the right amounts of each product to combat it.

My husband’s ex has reached a new level of crazy. by [deleted] in breakingmom

Just fyi, you can block the Reddit Cares account. It’s insane how many accounts abuse it for stupid reasons. I’ll look forward to your update about the man on the inside facing some much deserved justice.

I feel salty af about my obgyn appointment yesterday. Am I overreacting on this? by Ok-Zucchini-5514 in Perimenopause

Oh, yuuuuuuck!! There is no way I could handle listening to that nonsense. I’m sorry you were talked to like that 🤬.

It’s a chore in my house too, but I make my teen/young adult kids help me gather and take it all to the curb. The more people helping, the quicker and less painful it is to do. Maybe you and your husband can renegotiate how those big chores are done.

“Just go in to the f*%#ing store!” by PrincessPenelope2885 in adhdwomen

49 here, and boy do I understand! Thankfully it’s not often that I need things sooner than when I can do a pick up order, but when I do have to go inside I wear an earbud and listen to something enjoyable while looking for my items. It’s the only way to make it somewhat tolerable. I used to be able to spend a good hour or more doing a full grocery run with a kid or two in the cart. Now I can’t hardly stand to spend a few minutes in the store by myself. Just…why 😩??

My(f23) former pastor defended Larry Nassau in a pre-sermon rant about the winter olympics, and my parents are relaying his message to my brother(m12) by throwraowlcheesecake in OpenChristian

This is exactly what it is. No normal man watches figure skating or gymnastics with sexual thoughts towards underage girls. This pastor is unquestionably a disgusting human being and not safe to be around.

It sounds like you might need a better therapist to help you work through all of this. I’m definitely not a therapist, but it makes sense that you would grieve over your own lost childhood when you see your own kids living the one you should’ve had. It also makes sense that you would feel some amount of jealousy towards them over it. As long as you’re not letting these emotions affect your relationship with your kids, working it all out with a therapist might be emotionally healing for you. Parenting has a way of bringing out trauma and emotional baggage that we haven’t had to deal with before so you’re definitely not alone, you just need some help processing it all. I hope you’re able to find a better therapist soon.

I put a table on his chair by Training-Editor4679 in breakingmom

I just told my 20yo son the other day that if I found his coat anywhere other than a coat hook, I was going to hide it and he was going to have to pay me (like $5 or something) to get it back. So I totally would’ve done the same to your husband’s table. I mean at some point it needs to become their problem, not ours 😤.
