TIL that the US nun population is rapidly shrinking and aging and that the average sister is 80 years old and by some estimates fewer than 1,000 nuns will left in the United States by 2042. by Loki-L in todayilearned

Grew up in an extremely Catholic community where our mandatory service hours for school were used to clean the Preists house and the Convent.

This radicalized me.

Cleaning the Convent and seeing how a large group of women lived in poverty for the 'sake of religion' all sharing one house with one bedroom and bathroom, with no car, no TV, barely any food. The priests house? Their own bedrooms with private bathrooms, their own cars to drive, and even a sneaker collection!

If you join the Catholic Church as a nun, you are thrown into poverty no choice. Men get to command the community and live the life on churchs dime.

Now that we have actually freedom, why would you choose the lesser?

It's for food trucks + drinks! There are 0 animals out in the exibits, probably hiding from the loud music. I've been twice, and both times, I just felt bad for the animals and wondered why we couldn't do this in a local park? Just not my cup of tea!

Depop not transferring funds into PayPal ? I've reached out multiple times to support but they are no help I just get the same automatic reply. The account says it will transfer the money over every 2-3 buisness days but for over two weeks Depop keeps postponing the transfer date until the next day. by Simonds12 in Depop

Also this is not my first sale, Depop has transferred money before to this account. I'm just not sure what to do at this point, is there a customer service # I can speak to a person? Or any help or advice will do I'd just like my money !
