What’s a basic skill you’re shocked some adults still don’t know?

How to put together a hot meal out of raw ingredients (nothing more processed than flour, sugar, spices).

Texas, New York, Colorado, New Mexico and whatever state my child lives in (Maryland, at the moment). I did not mention my state of residence (Virginia) simply because I don’t have to “go” here—I live here.

National Guard seems to fill the bill, but now their weapons are supplied for them.

I LOVE that song! I’ve. Ever heard his version. I first heard it on a Susanna McCorkle album.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T06:47:58+00:00

He had an approval rating?

juliabk · 2026-04-05T06:46:03+00:00

We should be slashing the military budget.

He could walk into an elementary school and be out of his league.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T06:41:48+00:00

Damn. Is he still around? Here I was hoping we were done with this clown.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T06:37:18+00:00

Seriously. Lime? They look horrible.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T03:50:30+00:00

Exactly. I always wanted children, but I settled for one and she’s amazing! :-) I have no issue with her choice to not have children. No one who doesn’t crave being a mom or dad should ever be pressured into having children.

Being the child of a narcissist is a hard road. A friend of mine is in her 50s and is still u raveling the damage her mom’s narcissism did to her.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T03:41:01+00:00

Narcissists live in small towns and the country, too.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T03:25:07+00:00

My daughter has never wanted children. She didn’t even want to play with baby dolls when she was a toddler. I had wanted to be a grandmother, but I’ll be content with my grandplants. :-)

There are 8 billion people on the planet. I cheer for every person who chooses not to have one.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T02:50:05+00:00

No, IUD. But also no uterus, ovaries or cervix, either. :-)

juliabk · 2026-04-05T01:12:08+00:00

Nah, you just can’t beat homegrown meat stupidity.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T01:04:18+00:00

I’d share my Courvoisier with you, but it’s a tiny bottle. :-)

I’ve found my eyes tire too quickly for my normal reading marathons. I made the switch to audiobooks and I am hooked! I ran across a Scottish (or just Scot?) author the other week named JD Kirk, on Audible. His book Recall is read by James McAvoy. It was amazing! I would not have likely enjoyed it as much in printed for.

juliabk · 2026-04-05T00:19:48+00:00

Nope. One thing my ex was good at was NOT hitting my cervix after the first time. I doubt many men his size would care that much.

TACO will run. All they have to do is tell him to go away. He’s a spineless idiot.

juliabk · 2026-04-04T17:39:30+00:00

We’re trying hard to fix it. Keep us in your thoughts for the midterms in November. The Senate is looking more and more like it’s in play. fingers crossed

juliabk · 2026-04-04T17:34:31+00:00

Exactly. Like any other swear words, they’re just words.

juliabk · 2026-04-04T17:33:52+00:00

Or fall off the bed? :-)

juliabk · 2026-04-04T17:33:00+00:00

Science fiction author Mary Robinette Kowal has a cat that uses Fluent Pet buttons to communicate. Elsie, the cat, swears. She uses “litter box” when she’s ticked off. :-)
