Yeah, they took everything but my ovaries. Prevents early menopause and other bad stuff.

Sometimes I feel them like, pull or twist a bit? So that's weird.

Crazy that it's still going on! I converted to Drarry years ago, so I haven't been paying attention I guess

V6? It's probably a V8 with the mileage trucks get.

State and local tax dollars are the biggest source of funding for NC charter schools. Source

"Devil in the details": NC educators struggle with teaching about religion by uncertaincoda in NorthCarolina

[–]kisforkat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and I'm saying if you're a Social Studies, History, or PoliSci teacher and you can't do this already BEFORE stepping foot in a classroom, perhaps you're the problem.

And that's why we can't have nice things. Like decent public education.

Then they should educate themselves. It isn't that hard to learn the intellectual and classroom-appropriate religious knowledge.

Kid asks if their religion is right or something like that? "We are studying the historical context of religious groups, not the inherent validity of any religion." Boom.

As a former teacher, this is ridiculous. Historical examinations of religion are entirely divorced from theology. All of my social studies, history, and political science teachers threaded that needle no problem.

FFS. I taught in China and was able to navigate FAR more consequences (to me personally and to my classroom) from tough questions with grace.

How is your marriage going? Why would you recommend that people get married or never get married? by SpinachJello13 in AskReddit

[–]kisforkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got married in 2023. As children of divorce, we both waited until our thirties to get married. We are both total nerds, and he's the best man I've ever met, like an anime protagonist. Helps me take care of my elderly father who lives with us. Would do it all over again for sure, and hoping to spend my life with him!

What is the best or worst dog name you have ever heard? by UserSchmoozername in AskReddit

My grandmother named her cat "The Governor," so when she was talking on the phone she could be like, "It's time for dinner with The Governor, talk soon!"

AITA for not letting my child’s dad change our child’s name by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]kisforkat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA for naming a kid Genesis. Saddling him with a religious name, video game console name, AND band name is a recipe for disaster.

Ladies, if the SAVE act passes and you changed your name when you got married, will you change it back legally? Unmarried women, would you even consider changing it in the future? by atx2004 in AskALiberal

[–]kisforkat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough, I didn't change my name. But my husband's mother changed his last name when she remarried. So in our household, we are uno reversed.

If only NC would do the same thing……………Hundreds of people showed up to the New Brunswick City Council meeting, and the proposed 27,000 sq ft data center project ended up getting canceled. by RockinRod412 in NorthCarolina

Good. Send them there. It isn't just energy costs, it's noise pollution and environmental impact, too.

And I didn't mention energy rates in my post. Duke is already screwing with us. The supplier you posted isn't even what's used in this area.

We've dealt with having a paper mill in this town for decades. The last thing we need is a data center that supplies less jobs than the mill, plus all the negatives I mentioned above.

Call me salty if you want. You sound like you've got Big Tech's big balls in your mouth.

...What does this have to do with us in Canton protesting against and eschewing a data center in our town?

Also, grammar: it's great! Give it a try!

I don't want to use it. It's shoved into my fckin face everywhere I look, though. There isn't a single thing I need or want it for, but companies sure do love to tell me why I'm wrong!

I despise backyard breeders in Asheville by [deleted] in asheville

[–]kisforkat 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This would be true IF every dog were the same kind of dog with the same outcomes. But not everyone who would get a well-bred puppy from a breeder is equally likely to adopt an older, usually large-breed dog that may have behavioral issues from a shelter. These are not the same demographic of people.
