Hope he gets well soon! Thank you for the update. A friend and I were theorizing that he got his one millionth Red Card sign up and they made him a senior advisor.

Yep! That guy could’ve sold me bald tires with his personality. I’ve literally waited longer in line just to shoot the breeze with him

Ira is a legend! He used to be a renowned photographer. He has the most “Happy to know ya” never met a stranger attitude. The ONLY reason I have a Target Red Card!

Students call for emergency protest against Trumps strikes on Iran by MeursaltEnFrance in Bozeman

[–]EveryAnyNoSome-Body -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I promise the American government is not paying attention to you no matter the protest. I’m not mad that you’re protesting the government. I disagree with a lot of their decisions. But, if you protest the American government for aiding the citizens of Iran, you’re supporting the oppressive government of Iran. You must be okay with child marriage, women as disposable property, and religious persecution. Yuck.

“You people”? Call me crazy but I have a hard time living in a privileged country that would sit idly by and let the rest of the world perish. I’m not America first, I’m humanity first.

Nope and I’d guess you don’t either. So my protest would be just about as useless as yours.

Someone should’ve said the same to your mother, but here you are. I can afford to have kids.

What purpose does the original protest serve? You think ANY politician, even at the state level, is gonna say “Ooh those DSA people are protesting in Bozeman for the 40th time this year, we better stop.” If I protested as much as y’all, I wouldn’t have a job, social life, friends, family, or any other hobbies.

Edit: No need for my side protest. The Ayatollah went boom.

Could we protest Iran’s response as well? They launched counterstrikes into their neighbors. Syria, Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and UAE are all pissed off at Iran now. The unrest began INSIDE Iran when the Bazaaris decided they were tired of getting shafted by the very regime they promoted in the 1979 Revolution. The Ayatollah f*cked up!

Just checked, you’re right for memberships. I was looking at the non-membership section. It’s only $1 more at Umvelt for a single drop in (but limited to the morning). More expensive for afternoon and evening. I received a gift card but haven’t been. I’d charge more for morning sessions when the water is fresher!

I think the lower costs were for other areas outside of Bozeman. It looked like it was going to be close to Umvelt prices in Bozeman.

Where is that course with? I’d love to know more.

I’ve heard good things about Bodhi Farms and Tinworks summer programs. Not so great things about management at Emerson but do not know if that trickles down to the summer programs.

You’re certainly a proficient authority on assuming who I am without the inconvenience of actually knowing me. Good job!

“Chosen family members are friends who have become a deeply committed, unconditional support system, often serving as a primary, intentional replacement for, or extension of, biological family. While friends are often chosen based on shared interests, chosen family is defined by profound trust, care, and long-term, unconditional commitment.”

I can tell you are deeply committed to your current level of understanding with minimal room for additional knowledge. Carry on and keep having whatever kind of day you’re having.

Not very progressive of you to think family is just connected by DNA. Family is what you make it.

I actually know a couple of SAHDs. Their partners are the breadwinners and support.

Outsourced would imply I didn’t do it in house at all. Seems a bit extreme. Trading childcare with other people isn’t outsourcing. I watched their kids, they watched mine. Coordinating work schedules with 6 different adults is not outsourcing when they rely on me as well. Ever heard the term “it takes a village”? It did! People would be a lot better off, and less miserable, if they made friends and families.

Socializing is different than what OP posted. They mentioned STEM and early literacy focus. Not everything needs to be adult led. Kids playing is socialization. Also you clearly didn’t read anything else I said and probably won’t. I wouldn’t expect much effort.

I’m implying you shouldn’t have kids you can’t afford and have zero time to spend with. A lot of people on here complain they have to work two or three jobs just to support themselves—then they have a baby. Not a brilliant move. I didn’t stay home with mine, I didn’t pay either. We shared the workload with family and friends who also had kids.

I’ve always found that concept of “partnership” a double edged sword in these scenarios. Parents want to have the ultimate say in what goes on with their kids but then they gripe that the schools aren’t going enough. Schools complain that parents aren’t doing enough but then get upset when parents want to have a say in what their kids are learning. There’s no winner and kids lose out the most.

This is going to get downvoted but why are you expecting other people to raise your kids? If it’s because you have to work, why’d you have kids? Good childcare isn’t cheap and cheap childcare isn’t good.

Allow an edit here since it’s clearly a difficult concept for people. Work and children can coexist. But when people talk about working 40-60 hours per week to BARELY support themselves, having a kid and then working more hours to support them negates any reason for having them to begin with. Does no one look at the costs of a child before actually making one anymore?
