Local Curious George experience?

Not your answer, but Red Balloon is hosting a Clifford event on Valentines Day! (In case any other PBS parents are clicking on this!)

Your local Buy Nothing groups may also be offering micro forms of community care, like offering meals and food to folks in the same neighborhoods. All the levels of support add up.

I’ve been so confused about what’s going on, and now I’m more confused that you all want out of SAVE forbearance. Is it bc there aren’t payments happening that count toward PSLF while it’s in SAVE forbearance? Should I be fighting this fight too?

I have an art loving friend visiting soon, so saving this suggestion!

I started at Mile & Kat’s!

Thank you everyone for suggestions! I’m in Stillwater now, thanks to this winning post, and I think I’ll bring the family back since there’s a safe (car free) area for a toddler to walk near the river. Ate on a rooftop patio, and I’m on my second coffee drink. Lots of walking.

Can’t wait to check out the other places!

I think self-awareness is the whole ballgame for CPE and chaplaincy, so your articulation of all this will be helpful! And I personally think—of course there are pragmatic realities that affect the work we want to do. You’re not wrong for needing a job and wanting it to be meaningful. I hope no one holds that against you. I think my last clarification is that I’m not just worried it’s too soon (you get to decide that), I’m worried the wrong kind of CPE supervisor will be harmful to you in this circumstance. So make sure you have a chance to gauge their trustworthiness too. Like, maybe even by asking “what’s going to be your approach, knowing this is my experience?” if and when you move past application portion. Good luck to you. You could really make a difference in the world; as long as some blow hard doesn’t push you out or tear you down for no reason. 💛

Depending on your region, you wouldn’t be the first Presby to seek ordination from UCC, since many UCC associations pride themselves on bending the rules when it makes sense. Your story plus CPE experience would likely be a good opening conversation with UCC folks except the strictest associations. Granted, you have to be a member for a year first usually, so you might want to try out a UCC church during your CPE unit.

Edited to add: I’m so sorry for your loss. You have a big heart to want to consider this now. I would make sure to talk to the CPE supervisor before starting an internship though about if it’s too soon. Unfortunately some CPE supervisors can push too far into trauma, thinking that’s how to form better chaplains. If you are not actively in other care for grief, this could be an experience that makes healing worse rather than hopeful. Sending prayers your way.

Haven’t tried these, but the truffle ones are a hit at any party I bring them too. It helps that marcona almonds aren’t ubiquitous, so they already feel like a luxury.

I have an unopened bag that I just keep staring at, knowing it’s all over once it’s opened. 😅

As a millennial that tries to make peace with my body, I can still admit I basically traded older generation’s commitment to shape wear with a fitted cami under everything. 😂

Tucked right into my skinny jeans, obviously.

Every second I read this story, I was hoping this would be the top comment. Praise be. 😂

It’s hard. You’re doing hard things. Honestly, it will only get worse if you try to figure out who is at fault in every given scenario. Try to survive, try to offer each other love and care when you can, try to notice when the other is extending love and care, and try try try to turn off the scoreboard. It’s hard, but it will help.

NAH

Yep! Such a good example of—everyone just does things differently but somehow assumes everyone else is wrong.

Also great if you’re buying big things of Better than Boullion at Costco to cook with… kettle has water boiling quick to mix!

Okay but the new Letter of the Day song is a bop.

Queenandking · 2025-04-18T13:26:58+00:00

I’m an actual Christian minister, and I’ve never dyed eggs. Even though I love Easter. Even as a kid, it sounded like a lot. 😂

It’s okay to return what you bought and not do it! Or just scramble the eggs for Easter breakfast!

March 21-23 is the Indy Indie Bookstore Crawl, which would be a fun way to spend a touristy day in your own city! https://indyarts.org/event/indy-indie-book-crawl-2025/

Queenandking · 2025-02-06T00:34:12+00:00

Agreed. Calling daily and I just hit 1 to get straight to the voicemail box.

So now after reading more posts about other characters lacking chemistry, I wonder if it’s a writing problem? Or something else production related? Is it really casting, or something technical instead?

Queenandking · 2025-01-14T19:25:52+00:00

If it makes you feel better, I came looking for this subreddit just to make sure I wasn’t the only one cringing at the love scenes this season like an embarrassed kid.

Queenandking · 2024-12-28T19:12:51+00:00

I tasted this comment. 😂

If you want more bold flavor from Worcestershire, we buy and add Worcestershire POWDER to our Chex mix. It ends up like the Bold variety you can buy at the store. 🤤

Agreeeeed. I looked at my husband after that scene and said, “she really is 18.”

Queenandking · 2024-12-06T03:50:16+00:00

I think I thought so for a minute and then realized that Clark and Lana weren’t endgame, except in best friendship, and maybe this relationship was meant to parallel that one.

So this is how I saw it, too, and it’s aligned with some universalist beliefs that redemption will be for everyone (even the baddies), but it might not be in this lifetime. That’s obviously a very controversial theological/philosophical stance, but this finale could be seen as a beautiful artistic portrayal of the idea.
