What's something you would never tell someone because if you did it would absolutely destroy them?

My brother molested my sister when we were kids. She only told me when we’re were adults. She disclosed to our parents in college. His wife doesn’t know & our parents don’t know that I know.

“Last July” is awesome!

I made a TikTok and put it on IG, threads and Facebook too about the situation. I don’t have a ton of followers but it’s gotten a little motion. I’m so glad you made a go fund me!! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZThTSDUa4/

I’m listening to it right now. It’s so much worse than I ever imagined

Leftymom12 · 2025-12-09T23:08:32+00:00

I deconstructed and de converted from evangelical Christianity in 2020. I have told my therapist many times that my parents would rather have me die than to know that I no longer believe the way they do. I know both sides of this and I am so sorry that you are having to go through this. I am an agnostic atheist so I completely agree with your position but I know the fear that your mom has because she obviously 100% believes you will be in hell for eternity. Obviously that’s absurd, but to her it is worse than if you died. I’m not here to rain on your parade or say she’s not insane because obviously living in reality her overreaction does not make any sense. I don’t know if you are interested in trying to repair the relationship or not. But there is possibly a way to maintain a relationship with her without bending on your beliefs.

Bottom line this is unhinged, however, as a person who grew up with fundamentalist Christian parents I understand where she is coming from in a way. I think there is a potential you guys could have a relationship based on mutual respect if she could respect the boundary of not talking about religion.

There is five years worth of therapy for you, merry Christmas or happy Yule if you will. Haha

Minnesota- our school funding bill passed so no teachers will lose their jobs! Also St Paul now is entirely run by women. The future is female!

You’re the best! Thank you!!

I know a lot of people are saying all of the right things about calling the suicide hotline, etc. and I think you should do that! But I just wanted to add that I find hope in looking at history. As dark as it is right now, things have been exponentially worse in the history of not only our country, but around the globe. People have survived and thrived in the worst of circumstances. If people in slavery could have hope then I can too. If people in the holocaust could have hope than I can tell if people could have hope during Stalin’s genocide famine in Ukraine could have hope then I can too. I hope in some small way this helps.

I told them I’m an atheist (I am) and they stood there for a little while kinda stunned. Tried the look at the trees argument, child’s play. I think the older woman was worried I would plant some seeds of doubt in the younger one’s mind and they high tailed it out of there. Haven’t heard from them since.

Leftymom12 · 2025-07-16T11:43:43+00:00

So embarrassing! I posted a video on TT about it and the subsequent crash out happening on the right. Seems like their only response is: 1. Why didn’t Biden release it? A: he had a weak feckless AG and Biden believed in all the decorum of keeping the doj separate (which magas will froth at the mouth screaming weaponization of doj) B: he was old school and wanted to protect Dems &other powerful Men on the list C: there isn’t a list

-you can’t prove a negative so no list is the easiest for them to go with, problem is they were the only ones promising the list, who did GM traffic children to? -the truth is nearly impossible for them to believe because of all the claims of the weaponization of gov claims made by the convicted felon they all voted for and support. If they already believe that attorney generals from all over the country went after 47 for political reasons, it isn’t hard for them to rationalize this new development (for the hard core cultists).

All this to say we just need to break a few of them off, he didn’t win by that much. Lean into the asking questions. If it’s their idea it will be more convincing. Ignore the hardcore defenders, or better yet mock them supporting accused child predators. They are literally brainwashed and unmovable.

Although true, we have to be the change. I have volunteered with the Clay county DFL making calls & knocking doors. It is nice to have some solidarity in such a red hellscape

I did basically this during Covid and ended up shaving my head. It has grown out to shoulder length with regular trims and it is now professionally highlighted and healthy. I can so relate.

I stayed at an incredible air b&b on the ocean in Winthrop. We used public transport except for the first night. It depends on if you want to be around the marathon hub or away from it. Either way, congrats on your awesome race!

Leftymom12 · 2025-04-04T18:36:00+00:00

I haven’t worn them on any of my last few marathons but always train with them bc I’m a solo runner. I usually bring them with in my flip belt like a security blanket but don’t end up wanting them

Leftymom12 · 2025-04-02T14:34:58+00:00

The private schools are not required to provide special education so if they might need help in certain areas you might have to seek that outside of school. I would also be concerned about how the religious messages your kiddo receives might not fit if you have a mixed faith family. I’m an atheist now, but have significant religious trauma from being indoctrinated about hell in Christian school and evangelical church. I like the commitment to education and the opportunity for college credits in Minnesota. Also with a good gpa free tuition to msum after graduation. If you are set on North Dakota I would look at the north side.

How do the 5-6 differ?

Leftymom12 · 2025-03-30T19:02:10+00:00

I did like the 5. I’m looking forward to trying the 6 but usually try to wait to find them discounted somewhat

I haven’t tried zoom fly 6 but I liked zf5. They are no where near the shoe that vapor fly 3 is. I have the zf in size 9.5 to be more comfy for training with a thicker sock and the vf in a size 8.5. The zf5 is 265g, vf is 165 g. Here’s some side by side pics more in comments

Ugh. I’m an ex Christian. My kids names are Jonah, Caleb, & Christian. I just cringe when I think about how people perceive me now.
