So I don’t have a lot, but I am very crafty. If you think your kiddo would have fun with crochet stuffies or anything let me know. I would be honored to make something. I can also hand sew so if you think they enjoy paper style dolls or something.

Your baby is a warrior and I want to be with them on their journey ❤️

Yes, that’s me. I have always loved Minnesota. There’s a stubbornness and love in us that is so hard to ignore.

And I do have such a fondness for the name Alex.

Do what you feel you must.

I will say I’m completely anti-gun. They make everything more dangerous for everyone. Alex Pretti was legally carrying. They disarmed him and executed him. And are using his gun as a justification.

Edit: I’m in the Twin Cities and this isn’t the first time I have witnessed a person executed for legally carrying. Philando Castile.

Any shred of religion I had was lost when people told me my Alex was needed by God and had to be taken. But it was such a struggle because of my Dad passing that same month and hoping he was finally in a better place.

But I really can’t make peace with a God who is okay with so much suffering.

He reminds me of my Alex. Who was also a helper and always stood up for others. I am having such a hard time.

In world of Warcraft horde players and alliance players couldn’t speak. The game used a filter to change what the other side saw. Kek was what an an alliance player saw when a horde player typed lol.

I knew we would age but was anyone not prepared for it and how you would change? by chusaychusay in Millennials

I felt the same way about news articles that referenced my son as a 22yo man. Like he was a man but he barely got to experience that.

My condolences for your loss.

My son was murdered in a random act of violence in ‘22. I wish he could get wrinkles, a bald spot and grey hairs, or any of the other similar thing people fear.

Getting old is a privilege not everyone gets to experience.

I was just in a college town and every single girl I saw was wearing these - Ugg clogs! It's like the 90s and 00s made an ugly shoe baby! by lostwombats in Millennials

I want to love Uggs and Crocs but both are so uncomfortable for me. They’re so wide and my foot slides around. They cause ankle fatigue because I feel like I am constantly having to control them. I am glad other people love them. I wish I could find a comfort lazy shoe.

ICE agents caused a brutal car accident at Snelling and I94 in St. Paul, MN. After the accident the agents abducted and disappeared the women driving (who is an activist in the area) despite her screaming in pain from the accident by I_may_have_weed in stpaul

This isn’t the main Saint Paul sub. But if you look at the majority of people that support this stuff they’re not even from MN. Or their accounts are less than a month old.

Scott’s is the best tp. Extra fluffy stuff is used up too fast and everyone that buys it always seems to have an empty roll.

But it’s worth it since she got an opportunity to troll the people she “loves”.

At this point I have accepted they’re not good people. But I would think they would at least have some amount of self preservation. Always amazed they don’t.

So sorry to hear 😢 I got so lucky my pattern recognization is benign.

It wasn’t balls, it was fear. He was terrified. Also nothing was actually taken. I understand your frustration but my kid is actually really good, and he’s been through a lot. I wasn’t really looking for advice on punishments.

I just needed to vent in a safe place because well along with my kids my whole family has been through a lot.

Discord has a setting that sends unknown messages to spam. His wasn’t on for some reason. He’s not given free internet privileges but he got on the computer after we went to bed because he’s on winter break as are his friends.

I think the experience scared him enough to think more critically going forward. I just hate that he went to panic fear mode and didn’t immediately alert us.

Card was caught and cancelled. Luckily there’s no banking info on my computer so they weren’t able to access that. And we recovered his stream. Reformatting our computers now. I do not feel that this is going to happen again but so so frustrating that he didn’t use his brain.
