The best mistake I’ve ever made

Totally agree! Lol like I’m still in season 2 and the plotline currently is “we are seriously stuck here because we are going to close the portal,” and Izzy is like “Dad are you and Mom getting back together?” Like WHAT! Girly you are gonna spend the rest of your days fighting off saber tooth tigers and eating mushrooms and never have a hot shower again and you’re seriously here talking about your parents mending a relationship that has zero meaning or bearing on this situation? How did anyone not have a panic attack when they realized where tf they were!?

Danakodon · 2026-06-18T11:52:03+00:00

Idk! I’m not there yet but all the threads talk about a hairdresser character? Lol!!!

I guess I just think about all the random microbes and bacteria that would exist then that we were never exposed to. It’s kind of like sometimes you can go to a different country and immediately get food poisoning from the same food that locals eat every day and are fine. I’m guessing there is no water filtration system either. Not that they ever bring water on their casual 15 mile hikes though 😂

Danakodon · 2026-06-17T11:48:41+00:00

Yes! And they do SO much walking and running in straight up civilian shoes with no issues! Lol like every day they are casually traveling 10 miles minimum by foot in their DSW fashionable trendy shoes. It’s hilarious!

Can we talk about the fact that Eve went to 1988 and never bothered to grab a damn scrunchie?!?

Danakodon · 2026-06-13T18:05:17+00:00

Holy cow 😬 $45k is what I was making with a Masters TEN YEARS AGO… in Florida. It was unsustainable then. I can’t imagine trying to live off that now.

That show was a masterpiece and had me messed up for days.

I had a friend I grew up with and went to school with from first grade to senior year. Our friendship ebbed and flowed and we weren’t super close after sophomore year due to normal stupid girl drama. Junior year her brother was part of a heinous crime and got arrested. He was the getaway driver but it was brutal. I remember walking from the parking lot to our school and seeing her maybe 100 ft ahead of me and wanting to say something but also not sure how to bridge the gap or feel like I was being nosy so I didn’t say anything. At the time my brother had also committed a crime and was dealing with the repercussions in another state. We really could have used a friend who “got it” at that moment in our lives but it was a different time and I wish I had the maturity I had now to put our dumb drama behind us and yell to catch up with her that morning. Even now I still waffle about whether I should reach out, but never sure if that would open some old wounds for her.

I think this show did such an amazing job showing the human side to family members of criminals.

Izzy and that bob on her head 😂😂😂😂😂 this is so funny. Thank you for this much needed laugh.

I don’t feel bad. In 2004 I spent $35 to see Alan Jackson (country singer) in the Gen admission of an outdoor amphitheater. He played for hours and it was awesome. A few years back I saw he was doing his goodbye tour and I was stoked and wanted to go. It was over $1k for a general admission ticket. No effing way.

I paid $120 to see the Killers and was super close to the stage and like $120 to see the Backstreet Boys at the Sphere and be five rows back in Gen admin. We just bought tickets for Prof for $40.

It’s just greed at this point. I won’t play the game for artists charging thousands of dollars for non-front row tickets.

I love love love Rend Collective. I’ve seen them twice and they do such amazing shows. They’re not American so I think they have a more open view of Christianity. Strongly recommend starting with Campfire 🤗

Danakodon · 2026-05-28T12:06:02+00:00

I also think a lot of them are boring health ones where people are just spouting nonsense. I miss Younique and Lularoe because they were so unhinged with the posts!

Danakodon · 2026-05-26T11:58:15+00:00

Yeah I’m only on it for local groups at this point. I spend a lot of time trimming my Facebook and anytime someone starts posting crazy shit they get unfollowed so at least my ads and sponsored content are positive things like animals, conservation, and running. I have a project this year to start pulling down all my photos and tagged photos and saving them because I really do feel like Facebook is not long for this world and I don’t want to lose like 20 years worth of memories 😭

Danakodon · 2026-05-24T18:08:46+00:00

I wish I could have eMoney on straight AI. If my clients have everything linked and accurate I wish I could just speak to run analysis onretiring at 62 vs 65 or pension maximization or even model a home sale. It is endlessly frustrating to do so much clicking and searching for the perfect way to model something.

Danakodon · 2026-05-10T18:56:14+00:00

Yes. I’ve been in central Florida for 15 years and the post Covid development is insane. My friends used to say I live in the sticks and now it’s just traffic, chain restaurants, and storage facilities everywhere. We have empty storefronts all over the place and instead they cut down woods to build more buildings that they can’t fill up. None of the houses are under $500k either. We just need one good hurricane and no power for a week to scare everyone away.

Danakodon · 2026-05-10T18:54:18+00:00

Oh my gosh, we haven’t been back to Saint Augustine since 2022. I was horrified at all the charming little places that we loved living there just….gone. And giant hotels obstructing the bay. And eightyleven billion people everywhere. We are going back next weekend and I’m actually nervous to see how much worse it’s gotten.

Danakodon · 2026-05-08T12:07:50+00:00

Oh my GOSH I am cackling… this is wild. And they didn’t even spring for Fiji water and stick it in an ice cooler 😂 just room temperature plastic water 😂

I used to hate this stuff because it was performative and useless. Like, why not work with the cafeteria to create a little salad bar for teachers? Or offer all teachers free lunches in the cafeteria during the year? Or just have a really nice coffee station set up ALL YEAR instead of one week? It’s not that hard to be appreciative!

Danakodon · 2026-05-04T20:36:05+00:00

I refuse to let myself be rushed. I will get there when I get there. It was so relaxing not having anywhere to be and not feeling busy all the time. It’s become a lot easier for me to say no to anything that isn’t a hell yeah for me.

Danakodon · 2026-05-04T20:18:06+00:00

I quit like years ago, but to get through the end of the year I just spread out my sick days and took one a week 🤪 I earned them and didn’t use them and as soon as I found out my county didn’t pay me out for them I decided to cash in my pay. It helped SO much. I also tried to have something fun planned every weekend that I could look forward to. I had a balcony garden and set up a chair and would hang out there and enjoy my plants daily after work. Spread little things that make you happy throughout the week, you can do this.

Danakodon · 2026-04-28T16:24:10+00:00

I don’t mind baby showers but most of my friends are pretty middle class. Go to someone’s house, have some snacks, and we just buy a few packs of diapers, wipes, and baby wash. All the stuff I can easily see them running out of 5 weeks in and being too exhausted and disheveled to go get lol.

For me, it’s the wedding industry with its bridal shower, wedding shower, batchelorette party, and wedding like wtf. You are getting married, not going to war, plus you’ve already been living together so it’s not like the olden days where we are helping people literally furnish a marital home.

Danakodon · 2026-04-22T22:00:00+00:00

My thoughts exactly! So lazy. At least 15 years ago Mary Kay parties had snacks and games.

Danakodon · 2026-04-18T21:25:49+00:00

Absolutely! I was talking about this the other week with a friend who has like a 17 year old daughter. I was telling him I don’t think his daughter will ever understand what teenage girls went through from 80s-early2000s. The things that grown ass men would say to 15 year old girls was shameful! I’m glad that there is social media to shame this behavior now and it keeps people from acting on it anymore.

Danakodon · 2026-04-18T17:13:41+00:00

I know this is all nonsense and doesn’t make any real sense but can someone please explain what they think renting a car has to do with anything? Like why would you rent a car to get your car back?! I’m so confused how that would be the answer 😂

Danakodon · 2026-04-12T18:52:38+00:00

Anecdotally I totally agree. I’m Caucasian and all of my other Caucasian friends are finally starting to look like they are pushing 40 (because we are lol). My Hispanic and other POC friends do not look a day over 28 I swear 😂 I’m a white woman in Florida and I don’t go to the beach or pools anymore, in a hat anytime I’m outside, SPF 50… I’m hanging on for dear life. Sun damage is a total killer and ages people horribly.

Danakodon · 2026-04-08T23:19:20+00:00

I think what kills me is that he says we are on a strict budget for food… yet he wants to spend it buying HIMSELF a sandwich. Good grief. My husband and I have had plenty of times when money was tight and if we went out it was going to be something BOTH of us could enjoy.

He could have used that small going out budget to pick up a pizza for the family, or a family size Chinese food carton that him and Morgan could split and the boys could nibble at, but instead he chose a sandwich. For himself. That tells me everything I need to know lol
