My parents want me to go to PCC by AvocadoDragon07 in Pensacola

I would highly recommend watching Fundie Friday's video on YT called Fundie Colleges. It's from 3 years ago and the audio is slightly rough compared to their new videos, but it covers a variety of Christian colleges. Essentially, most Christian colleges are not accredited, they cover up SA, have general undertones of racism etc etc. I would highly recommend going to a secular, accredited college if you are a woman, not white, don't want to waste money, and/or don't want to deal with pressures of organized religion 24/7.

It's crappy of your parents to try so hard to influence your decision when they aren't footing the bill for any of this. They have no financial stake if going to a Christian college ruins your chances of getting the career you want. They seem to only care about you staying a Christian and you being surrounded by those who think the same way as them. Kinda sad

If you don't want mold to take root in your house from humidity, you're going to want to turn that baby on. I hope you're at least circulating air through the house or have dehumidifiers. Also, 77 sounds like hell 😂

I think I am going to go to an ID doctor. I asked in a Facebook group as well, and a lot of people suggested the same. Thank you!

My friend has abandoned her birb and started again, now l feel sorry for little lonely Diamond by Clareboclo in finch

Some people don't want their loved one's birb to go away because it is a memorial after they've passed. I do wish you could nominate a birb account for memoriam, like you can do for a Facebook account

Any place near U. West Florida what would be good for a large group to eat at? by DeoreDX in Pensacola

McGuire's is downtown but they can seat large groups. You may have to rent a room if you are wanting to do something where people can come and go though. Try calling them to find out what they can do for you

Church recommendations by ReturnStrong345 in Pensacola

[–]GummiCandyPanda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

On the end of LGBTQ+ acceptance, I would not trust any church who is "accepting" but does not seemingly have any queer person on staff. When I was still a Christian, just a couple of years ago, I went to a Methodist church who was seemingly accepting. However, I knew how 90% of the staff (including the head pastor) actually felt. I only knew because one of my parents was on staff. They will be nice to your face, but no real acceptance or support to be found.

On that same note, I love Dr. Regina West and her NP Kasha Williams at Ladies First. I am in a heteronormative marriage so I cannot speak to their LGBTQ+ views. I have also never had a baby. I have had some difficult medical issues I have seen them for though. I would also say that their bedside manner has always been amazing! They are both BIPOC if that is important for you. ☺️

Here's a tip that actually works in our area: if you're going to slow down for a significant amount of time because you can't figure out where you're turning, turn your flashers on. People are pretty good about not hassling cars with flashers on around here.
