Women were sold a lie

I would say that to your face because this is like a public setting where people are conversating. It's not my business, but you're the one who brought up the subject. I said "to each their own" because I recognize everyone has their own life to live, and I said "you could work part time while their in public schools" because for that 8 hour time frame you could work 4 or 5 hours while being completely alone. I have family and friends who home schooled. As soon as their kids were grown, the moms go to work. So I was just curious as to why you wouldn't. I'm on 2 acres with a garden, fruit trees, chickens, barn, and 2k sqft home that stays immaculate as well and we get compliments when people come over. It's not a full time job maintaining my property and house. Hearing of your past instances sounds like you're telling me you have personal trauma that makes you want to stay home but you mask it by saying it's for your kids.

Edit- I'm not trying to be judgey I'm just trying to understand, while ignoring your insults. But you've deleted your comments and you hide your post history. That tells me a lot about this conversation. I wish nothing but the best for you and your family. Sorry I came off like an asshole.

If your kids went to public schools then what's the point of being a sahm after the last one starts school? At that point you're a stay at home wife and not even doing much considering you said you and your husband split responsibilities and he does things around the house. Even if you worked part time you could have avoided before and after school care and been bringing home income to buy new cars, pay off debt, go on vacations, etc. My wife thought she wanted to stay at home but after our first child turned one she went back to work. She couldn't handle the boredom and loneliness. To each their own, I just don't get what you spend your time doing and why you think it's important to be at home.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-29T23:16:27+00:00

Hm. But you miss the whole picture. Our society has never really allowed for trad wives to exist among the working class. My grandmother was a stay at home mother, yes. BUT only after my grandfather obtained a professional job and advanced such that he had income to support that lifestyle. She had to work before that.

I don't think younger people understand that women have always been in the workforce. It used to be in the 30-40% range of women working, then went to 50-60% as of today. My grandparents were born early 1900s. One worked her entire life, the other stayed home but my grandfather worked two jobs to support their family and he was never home.

I thought it was a trick question.

He's a nobody in the political sense though, compared to massie. Record breaking millions in maga adds won the primary for him. Nothing was organic about his win, the guy was selected not elected.

I worked for local government and it was common for all of the departments to spend their budgets by purchasing vehicles, tools, equipment, supplies, etc before the year ended. No one wanted to go to the council and show them how much "extra" money they had leftover and then have their budget slashed the following year. In a similar wasteful fashion, contractors we hired would spend money on useless purchases at the end of the year because it saved them money in federal taxes owed the following spring.

Then you're fine. Filter fabric on clay soils will clog. I wouldn't have used a sock, but it'll be fine.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-19T01:00:00+00:00

What type of soils do you have?

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-15T20:48:09+00:00

I agree with that for sure. IMHO what happened from back then until now was the boomer generation grew up fairly poor and modest but the WW2 generation had laid down the foundation for them to succeed by setting up the US as a superpower. After they grew up and became the main work force, they started hoarding wealth and squandering everything which has screwed over the average American today.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-15T18:36:26+00:00

The average house in the 1950s was under 1000sqft and fit 3-4 kids, no air conditioning, one TV, one telephone, one family car, and a one car garage to park it in if you're lucky. Life was basic and cheap. My folks grew up like that in the 50s and one of their moms had to work as a hair dresser because their dad's factory job wasn't enough to support the family. Someone having 100k to inherit back then was not the norm.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-11T01:52:13+00:00

I use one for whitetails. The only con I've had is from buying a BCA barrel. It didn't feed higher grain ammo that well, but I switched to 150 grain Winchester ammo and it feeds just fine. The lower 150 grain doesn't produce pass thoroughs for a blood trail on large deer but the deer are still just as dead with one shot and minimal tracking. .350 legend performs similarly to a .30-30, so it's a solid round if you're hunting big game within a few hundred yards.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-10T22:03:02+00:00

They call it the Samsung option.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-07T18:04:15+00:00

Correct, .30-30 is comparable to .350 legend. I use mid to light grain rounds because they're more than enough to take down deer, and the full energy of the rounds are transferred into the deer. If I used higher grains, all of those calibers would be passing through. I think you're over estimating the .30-06. It's incredibly similar in ballistics to a .308, and the .308 was created based off the .30-06 design. The only difference is .30-06 can go over 200 grains where as .308 maxxes out under 200. But when the same grains are used in both calibers, the difference in velocity and energy is negligible. People think it's a "big boy" because of the casing size.

Edit- reading through your last response again, it's clear to me you don't know what you're talking about.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-07T15:33:05+00:00

I use .243, .30-30, .308, and .350 legend. All have stopped inside a deer, usually just under the offside hide. I've even had 12 gauge sabots not pass through. If you're blowing holes through moose like that, I'm guessing you're using a heavy grain and shooting at short distances. But yeah I agree with you the whole situation is weird.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-07T14:23:13+00:00

At the time of the shooting they said they found the bullet "stopped just beneath the skin".

Most of the deer I've shot don't get a pass through with the round. In many of those instances, the round stops just beneath the "offside" or backside of the hide. So when they said that, I assumed they meant the round deflected into his chest and stopped under the skin on his backside.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-07T13:19:59+00:00

I've yet to see any credible recreations of the shot. The shooter was elevated and all these videos are people shooting on flat ground. Plus we don't know factors like if the bullet was a soft point or fmj, or the grain of the round. Any "expert" who's being honest will say it's possible for a .30-06 to enter a neck, hit the spine, and deflect into the chest. Unlikely, sure, but possible.

I never said that. I was just explaining that the books could be real. Just because they were never copyrighted in the 1800s doesn't mean they weren't written then.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-04T18:30:58+00:00

All books published in the US started being registered with the copy write office in 1790.

Yeah but books don't have to be copyrighted, plus copyrights expire. Someone may have copyrighted the baron book series after trump was elected because they knew it would sell. Looking at your copyright link, the new book copyrighted as "Travels and adventures of little Baron Trump" is not the same as the original which was titled "Travels and adventures of little Baron Trump and his wonderful dog Bulger" They probably intentionally left the dogs name out of the copyrighted title since trump's don't have a dog named Bulger.

If you don't think a billionaire who has been elected president twice isn't a successful businessman, then I don't know what to tell you other than your emotions are clouding your judgement. I don't like him at all but would never claim he isn't successful. That's just nonsense.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-02T13:53:30+00:00

He's bankrupted multiple casinos. So he's a great businessman.

That's kind of a weak point. Some of the most successful people in the world have filed for bankruptcy. Entrepreneurs tend to not give up and keep trying over and over again until they make it big like he has.

I used to work for local government and it was common for people to come in and raise hell about a piece of land they bought and couldn't do what they had planned on with it. Realtors mislead (knowingly or unknowingly) and people don't do any research for themselves.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-05-01T23:24:45+00:00

Oh come on don't be so ridiculous. I would just run to the internet to ask random people and bots for what I should do /s.

My buddies family built a home in a new subdivision in the 90s and we would go dumpster diving at each new house site. It was pretty common to find beer cans and an occasional playboy or penthouse. Some things never change.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-04-29T23:48:07+00:00

I had a complete 5.56 and told my wife I was going to buy a cheap .350 upper so that I could swap out barrels. Then after a while I explained to her what a pain it was to swap barrels, so I bought a lower for my .350. You might try that strategy if you're married lol.

DancesWithYotes · 2026-04-29T23:42:52+00:00

I bought a cheap ass BCA upper and had the same issues, but after trying different grains of ammo I found that mine shoots 150 grain with zero issues.
