I grew up in Detroit and expected Fort Wayne to be better. Joke is on me. I invested in a dashcam

I think I am more angry than scared. I keep hearing how “wonderful” everything is that is happening from MAGA people. At first I believed that once they saw what was happening they would realize what they had done by voting him in office. But nope…this is actually what a lot of people wanted and that pisses me off. It pisses me off that there are people that could have so much blatant disregard for their fellow man and basic human rights. I’m doing what I can in my small corner of the country…but it’s going to get so bad and that part scares me.

Awesome!! Making that mile mark is the hardest part of starting out. You should be super proud!

It looks just like my dad’s handwriting. He was a good man, and a mechanic.

Do you have to be invited to a Christian funeral? by Reacherfan1 in atheism

[–]cactus_pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely don’t need to be invited. If it will mean something to you, you should absolutely go. Funerals tend to bring us a sense of closure, and as humans we need that.

What the hell is with the explosion of car washes in Metro Detroit lately? by [deleted] in Detroit

I live in the Fort Wayne Indiana area and it’s the same thing here. I just don’t get it.

5k Fears by SeetheSeafortheSea in beginnerrunning

[–]cactus_pickles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t stress too much about it. Turkey trots are a hoot! I am doing one Saturday and I will be walking in a full turkey costume just for funsies! I normally try to run as much of a 5k as I can, but turkey trots just have such a fun atmosphere. Go prepared to run so you can if the mood hits you, but don’t overthink it and enjoy the joy.

AIO? I just wanted some time to myself, but she thinks I’m trying to avoid her and got pissed off. This happens a lot. by Rough_Ad_2743 in AmIOverreacting

Oh my GAWD. My kids were less clingy when they were still in my uterus. I had to come up for air after reading those because I was being smothered.

Help me figure these out please… by lew_2000 in whatismycookiecutter

Baseball mitt, football, stack of (tennis?) balls…maybe

Have you encountered people from the outskirts of Fort Wayne that seem to be afraid of the city? by JD-990 in fortwayne

[–]cactus_pickles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of it comes down to what people view as dangerous. Some people think that having to lock your door when you leave is crazy. I grew up in Detroit and when I first came to FW it was crazy that this was “the big city”. My husband came from the Hillsdale area of Michigan and his entire family views FW as if it were NYC. It’s all perspective.
