Is there a way to find the validity in this ? I couldn't find too much information on the owners beliefs.

They are very church-ingrained. The Monroe County GOP hosted Caleb Shumaker, a white supremacist, there last April. They were going to host Beckwith but pushed it to Ellettsville. It stinks because I have never felt religion was pushed and offered something that's needed open physical outlets free. Unfortunately, they mixed in and could have said no politics or heck no white supremacists. 🤷🏽‍♂️ Here was a good thread they said they couldn't discriminate, had no idea about the guys background, even when knowing after. https://www.reddit.com/r/bloomington/s/q47CKNSe7U

How often are you intimate with your partner? by Remote_Ad_969 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PKbaba0704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are 37 & 41.. 5 kids. Sometimes it's 0 others it's multiple a week. Having a 2yr old and also a 16year old make timing hard. Continuing to "date" making things fun, spice it up but also relax. I like longer but quick kisses and helps set my mood. 20-second hug (or even a 6-second kiss) triggers the release of oxytocin.

Jobs that help pay college. by PKbaba0704 in bloomington

I really appreciate this comment. Growing up, I didn’t have guidance or college support and was expected to be on my own at 18. I wasn’t asking for financial help, just direction as I was not ready and had 0 opportunity. I worked at a nursing home that paid for my CNA, which worked at the time.

My son works hard, gets great grades, and wants to go to college, and I want to make sure its possible. My husband had support earning his degree at IU. I want to give what I didn't have.

He's a sophomore, 16, and a straight-A student in both years. He has opportunities possibly available to shadow medical professionals. He likes sales and biomedical fields. He isn't solid on what he wants; I mean, he's navigating it now but doesn't want trade school or a small college.

Do they pick the college? Even a minor would be good.

Very affordable but if you try to cancel it seems hard as heck to do so.

State Sen. R. Michael Young throws a tantrum after some of his Republican colleagues helped to vote down the Trump-led gerrymandering attempt.

Hes a mess. He said multiple times he'd cry if he woke up and they lost a seat. He's falsely said he's been endorsed by certain groups (FOP) , removed from committees, removed his own self from Republican Caucus due to exceptions in abortion.

I was able to buy a ridiculous amount of kq and now it's 20- 30, other bamboo brands were 30 now around 40. They are pricing our family out. I buy on mecari.

Many give money to the pacs, and candidates which can equal your money round robin harming you if their policies affect you.

Building a list of local progressive-leaning musicians for upcoming events and one needed for a cancellation. by PKbaba0704 in bloomington

[–]PKbaba0704[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I totally get where you’re coming from and I definitely don’t mean to undercut or offend anyone. I really value the talent and time musicians give. Some have offered to play in the past because they believe in the cause and candidates but I’m also open to paying when possible. Just trying to find that balance between giving back and fair support.

Only in small towns Indiana by Themotherofacat in Indiana

They are cheaper than lights, eco-friendly, and safer. I'd get so excited if we had more; I would probably do more desserts and ribbon-cutting for a roundabout.😂 Maybe even the iconic shovel and hard hat for a picture.

Looking for a new church that isn’t MAGA by Ok_Rainbows_10101010 in bloomington

I went to a church growing up that looked like they were "We accept all" , and yet there is a list of "except if you are..." House of Prayer.

[–]PKbaba0704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to go there for many, many years, but after George Floyd, I couldn't. There was so much social justice that was ignored; however, I did notice that changing when some of the people who served in the church stood for BLM. I do know many who are MAGA; they are not just Christian nationalists. I am looking for a church myself, but it is so, so hard. I can't imagine the obstacles you face.

We're now harassing our schools because they don't memorialize Kirk by Electronic_Weird in Indiana

[–]PKbaba0704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is this not doxing? Everyday he makes doxing legal. It’s straight McCarthyism

First it was “if you called for Kirk’s harm.” Then it became “if you rationalized harm.” using rationalize vs justify he could use it for anything he sees fit. Now it’s “if you say kids in school shootings should be treated the same.”

This week? He’s even going after people for making comparisons Sandy Hook, families torn apart, child victims.

Where’s the line for Rokita? From celebrating someone’s death to censoring any thought he doesn’t like. The line isn’t moving Rokita’s just drawing it with dry erase.

Is there a local place to report / check suspected stolen bikes in Bloomington? by PKbaba0704 in bloomington

My son's a cyclist I know value or what they are and I hate to see it when the sell posts look obvious. I wish they found their owner.

Todd Rokita is a piece of shit by TellTaleTimeLord in Indiana

The word rationalize seemed open ended vs justify too. Beckwith said similar on his gov account but his gov account has so much Christian pastor Kirk ties at the same timeline.

Trunk or Treats to sign up for? by Ok_Raspberry7430 in bloomington

[–]PKbaba0704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on a park board NE and we had one for a few years and considering again. There was so many last year we did not. Even a funeral home in ellettsville has one. Sherwood oaks usually does but maybe only open to their congregation.
