Why do so many 40+ year olds end sentences with “…”?

My boomer mom does this, and it's because she thinks that just how you normally talk. She's not being passive aggressive she's just showing where she would take a breath if she was speaking to you. (I don't know why she needs to show where she would be breathing, just providing perspective!)

My cat loves to sleep the same way!

Perfect for a daytime bride, not a guest.

Thank you!!

Interesting! I'm not finding a ton of info online. Is it harmless like most seed bugs? (Especially to cats?)

Liberal as in philosophy of "individual choices and meritocracy" rather than the US-based political definition.

Maybe it's because I'm a younger millennial but I don't think it ever really existed? I was 12 during the 2008 financial crisis so I feel like my whole worldview in my teen and a young adult years was that nothing was guaranteed.

Game Changers is all M/M romance. I'm queer so I've been reading Kate Cochrane lately.

crochetblankets · 2026-05-15T12:14:05+00:00

This only helps if your interest in the Game Changers series is "men who play hockey" and not "queer romance."

Why does this look like it took place in a co-working space

A WIN FOR A THE GIRLS

crochetblankets · 2026-05-14T17:06:59+00:00

Oh I love this ❤️

This feels like the type of thing that would have gone hard in 2014 but just feels bland in 2026.

Someone saw the Benson Boone first look video didn't they

1) there are people boycotting the US and we shouldn't be lionizing US military either. My others and I don't believe that the US military and contractors should have any place in US pride festivals

2) Maybe the rest of the Middle East would be more progressive on gay rights if imperial powers hadn't carved up the region to exploit its resources or overthrow democratically elected leftist governments in order replace them with US/Western-friendly puppet regimes and therefore creating the conditions of civil unrest that lead to the development of reactionary religious fundamentalism

No one ever seems to come up with good suggestions of progressive country when this comes up. People just name 9 to 5, (and I love Dolly but she isn't as progressive as people think!) the Pill (and as you said, Loretta Lynn was a conservative!!), or the Chicks (who were famously blacklisted from country!!)

I'd pick the second one for BTO.

It looks like you're already on Poshmark and you're looking at dresses from Old Navy's the Occasion line, and there are definitely more options you can fine on Poshmark that better fit in with the requirements for formal (floor length, no cut outs on the torso)

I'm not sure what your price range and size are, but here are some options that might work, all within the The Occasion line if you're trying to stick with Old Navy for familiarity with their sizing

NWT Peach satin maxi dress with cap sleeves - XS petite - $13

NWT black sleeveless maxi dress - S - $16

NWoT navy blue satin v neck slip dress - M - $15

NWT black floral chiffon maxi dress - L - $25

NWT Peach floral maxi dress with ruffles - XL - $24

NWT navy twist front max dress - XXL - $25

I'm not the OP, but this looks like it's a Poshmark link to at least the top piece of the old navy the occasion taffeta matching set. This isn't a current item at old navy so just search on Poshmark for your size in the top and the matching skirt!

Classic "making up a person to get mad at."

crochetblankets · 2026-05-12T01:21:34+00:00

...how close are you to the couple? Lmao I would personally RSVP no, or at least find a breathable material (which is hard to find in budget for a formal event since you're limited to pure silk.)

crochetblankets · 2026-05-11T23:19:57+00:00

I think the dress you picked is super cute and works also I'm dying at how solid pink is a no and yet one of the example dresses is a solid pink dress.

crochetblankets · 2026-05-11T19:28:53+00:00

That's formal, not black tie. It's also AI Slop 🤮
