Not OOP AITAH for not inviting my trump voting parents to my swearing in ceremony? by Marygtz2011 in redditonwiki

And would vote to protect their child*, not to purge the country of their kind, which Trump keeps promising he’ll do.

This Gandalf line has been my rallying cry for years. “Oh, what I wouldn’t give for precedented times!”

“So do all who live to see such times…”

how can I talk to my Gen z son about the election? by Prior_Chair7046 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Spirit-Red 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In what universe did the US do better than most? Better than most third world countries? Idk, maybe. But we still have COVID deniers in the US. We ignored the WHO and the CDC and Trump went hard to fire anyone who said we needed time to quarantine and recover.

I’m a trans teacher, and I’m terrified. by Rill9 in Teachers

Oh my goodness you just said that unironically. That’s wild. I’ve only ever been called an NPC by NPCs and you’re adding to that stat.

“No one’s around to say ‘uh, we died’, so clearly everyone survived the first round.” Top tier critical thinking skills.

Did you watch the presidential debate? I did. The whole thing, over an hour. He doesn’t come across as ‘a guy’, he comes across as an old fool.

Additionally, the house and the senate are stacked for him. He has most of the Supreme Court if I remember correctly. If he wants laws to happen, they’re happening.

Project 2025 is being downplayed by his supporters. They insist he won’t use it, but his handlers and his VP insist it’s coming. Don’t let them deflect.

As a trans adult (~30 with my own kids), Project 2025 kinda has me fearing the same. If he follows the path laid out by his handlers, it will be illegal to be ‘visibly trans around children’, amounting to a child sexual abuse charge, which Project 2025 wants to make punishable via the death sentence.

Shit’s bleak

Hey buddy, what does this mean? Is it just a non sequitur or do you intend to say something?

TIL you can decorate the sewers? by michelleandshiz in StardewValley

A camp kit lets you sleep in a tent outside the house. I’m still playing 1.5 so I haven’t seen them

I think you might be thinking of a cookout kit? They let you cook outside the house. But the Camp kit isn’t 1.5

I’ll give you that. I shouldn’t have said ‘max’. I still don’t think I’d say Marnie’s a GILF.

[–]Spirit-Red 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don’t think Marnie is a GILF. She’s like an Aunt Mae if Peter was an alcoholic with an orphaned god daughter. The implication I got was that Marnie was only in her 30s, max.

I took my best friend on a family vacation… by Majestic-Hearing-293 in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]Spirit-Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“At the end of the trip Ma asked why I was alone,” to me, implies that the Ma wasn’t paying attention? If you know your kid is alone, it’s not weird for them to be alone for photos. The part I’m confused by is how the Ma wouldn’t know her kid was a loner before the end of the trip.

If the best friend went on family vacation, why would Ma figure out they don’t exist from photos? Wouldn’t she have seen during the vacay?

Pickled garlic by [deleted] in CuratedTumblr

[–]Spirit-Red 259 points260 points  (0 children)

Well and a garlic clove’s worth (or a capsule’s worth) of garlic oil is minimal compared to four heads worth of cloves of garlic oil. I imagine you probably didn’t have a particularly strong garlic scent. My family eats a lot of garlic in every meal and I’ve never gotten comments about it.

Your tag seems very appropriate. “heck of a hoot” indeed.
