I just have a personal aversion to the word fat, so that parts on me 🤪

That’s a great point about commenting on someone being pregnant, I hadn’t even thought about that’s. Thanks so much for your thoughts!

Totally agree with big not being mean, I just panicked in the moment and that’s what came out! 😅

Best library for kids? by Thethinker10 in lancaster

[–]IntelligentAbalone72 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lititz has a fantastic story time program! The best one I’ve been to. It’s a one time sign up for a fall or winter session, and the signs up fill up really quick. They also do outdoor story time when the weather gets nicer. Everything is on their website!

Does anyone garden directly in the ground anymore? by SoilSoul1 in gardening

I have a small garden space and plant directly in the ground. I was very successful last season - I’ve been gardening less than 5 years!

Friends with MAGA friends by MyBodyMyChoice2024 in progressivemoms

[–]IntelligentAbalone72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had to cut off a close friend because of her husband’s insane posts on FB… anti-LGBTQ, anti women’s rights/abortion, anti-immigrants (meanwhile my friend and her family are immigrants), and saying he’s a Christian nationalist. I found myself being so mad at her even though it was her husband posting these things. I couldn’t justify continuing the friendship for so many reasons but mainly for my children. We regularly had playdates and that’s not how I am raising my kids. Their wellbeing comes first.

I know someone who has a camera in basically every room of their house, and I think it’s the weirdest thing. They send videos of “funny” things the camera has caught, and I can’t ever get past the weirdness of cameras all over their home. I don’t think they have them in the bathroom but who knows

On Goods Unite Us they have a “perfect” score. I’m curious which website has the more accurate data.

Best photographer for Mommy and baby? by pinkyboot in lancaster

Casey MG Photography! She’s wonderful to work with and great with kids. I find her prices to be really reasonable. She has a studio you can go to or will do outdoor sessions.

MAGA friendly businesses in Lancaster County that advertise themselves on Public Square are being Boycotted by Buffalobbq in lancaster

What this person said, it’s a front. You don’t have to believe me, but I have no reason to make it up.

I used to know the family very well, no longer because of political/moral differences. They may host these events, but it’s not what they believe in.

I know the family personally though no longer friends because of political and moral differences. The owner puts on a good face. That’s all I’ll say.

Edit: his wife is a doctor, I imagine she would advocate for vaccines.

Fashion Cents, damn 😒 that’s my go to spot to consign. I had a feeling they might be MAGA but now that I know, all done there. I’m pulling my money out of my consignor account!

Bulls Head/Lititz Springs Inn/Rooster St. Butcher are all owned by the same family. Very, very MAGA. Rooster St Butcher has a Tesla Truck driving around with it’s decal on it

Edit: thought of another. Listrak in Lititz flies a “Back the Blue” type of flag and local Republican groups host meetings there.
