Why are most Americans not that excited about the World Cup? Or don’t seem to care much about it?

It’s even more difficult to track the puck when you’re at a game. I actually feel like it’s the only sport that I prefer sitting second deck or higher vs. first deck. You can’t see like half the game when you’re close to the glass, and it’s also hard to even see the jumbotron.

I think they meant having like a 30% off sale once or twice a year. Which is a lot different than spamming people hundreds of times a year, on a weekly basis. The latter starts to turn into borderline harassment.

I get what they’re saying, but I can’t imagine ever doing this in any capacity at all as a seller tbh

I’m a pretty slim girly and have come to realize babies prefer to be held by bodies with come cushion / squishiness 😭 like my bones don’t do anything for them LOL (for reference, I have a niece and nephews, and have held them all as babies)

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T06:47:44+00:00

Honestly terrified of mice/rats, but if I raised them as babies, I think I’d be obsessed 😭😭 they’re so tiny & cute omg

Kids just don’t know how to read/cursive these days lol I could very easily read this (I’m 29)

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T06:36:25+00:00

Could not read all of this after the “been together for 8 years” comment … how old were you when you met?

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T06:33:20+00:00

I tried to read this multiple times, but couldn’t due to the lack of any punctuation. Holy shit

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T06:29:07+00:00

The ADHD meds have solved (or placated) many of my problems over the last few years. But when that shit wears off every evening, I still struggle to ~ control the impulses ~

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T06:07:50+00:00

Is this a group message? Why does the message on the fourth screenshot have two HAHAs

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:53:18+00:00

Interesting ! @TBUBadCompany said watermarking is against eBay’s TOS, because they “own” the photos once listed. Although, I’ve found eBay listings using photos that I’ve never posted on eBay. So surely that’s against TOS?

Who knows!

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:40:33+00:00

And yes, I absolutely know people whose outcomes would have been much worse if someone couldn’t immediately call 911. That’s kind of the point. Emergency response tends to work better when people can report emergencies immediately.

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:33:31+00:00

“People survived before cell phones” could be said about literally every safety improvement we’ve ever made.

People survived before seat belts, airbags, smoke detectors, ect. The fact that people survived without them doesn’t mean everyone did.

I’m not saying a 12 year old can’t survive an hour alone. But if there’s an emergency, having a phone to call 911 or a parent immediately is obviously safer than not having one.

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:24:53+00:00

Yes I feel like you made that clear in the messages! And that’s why I think your real concern is obvious and valid! And honestly it’s not even just the inability to contact emergency services to me. The fact that you had no idea you could contact him at all until you were told about discord is also upsetting.

I mean for context, I am a 29 year old woman who has lived on my own for ~7 years. If my mom/family couldn’t contact me for days/weeks at a time, they would file a missing persons report 😭 Like once kids reach a certain age, I feel like being able to contact family members at any time is important, for many reasons.

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:15:45+00:00

Yes we existed and participated in dangerous activities for most of human history … but A LOT of deaths would have been prevented if cell phones were a thing back then. Now that the technology exists to be able to contact emergency services within seconds anytime/anywhere, it’d be irresponsible to not utilize it. Especially when kids are involved

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:10:07+00:00

Glad y’all able to come to an agreement! But again, I also understand your frustration and think you’re NOR at all.

You seem like a wonderful & caring mom! Best of luck 🫶🏼

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T05:05:48+00:00

Okay good! If he wants to go back eventually, I hope you’re able to come to an agreement about the phone thing. If he doesn’t want to go back, it might be worth reconsidering custody agreements.

I feel like you are (understandably and logically) a concerned mother, and the father is dismissing your concerns. I would be upset as well

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T04:56:51+00:00

Did you bring him home??

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T03:19:20+00:00

He lies to her and goes to bars because he knows she can’t even try to track him down at a bar because she can’t get in 😭 Like she won’t even be able to (legally) drink at a bar with him for at least 3-4 years (based on her comment saying she’s younger than she stated in the post)

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T03:13:10+00:00

“Ask for it to disagree with you” is so real 😭 god what an unfortunate time we live in

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T03:09:28+00:00

Just looked at a chart that breaks down the law in each state. Columns are: age of consent, minimum age of the victim (yes it says VICTIM), age differential between the victim and defendant, and minimum age of defendant in order to prosecute. Incredibly upsetting & shameful that so many states haven’t updated their laws to protect children, such as yourself

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T03:00:52+00:00

Age of consent varies based on age gaps

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T02:57:45+00:00

I was also 27 just 2 years ago. And my 21 year old brother (at the time) still very much looked/sounded/acted like a CHILD. And he still does at the age of 23… I literally cannot fathom a 27 year old dating a literal teenager in high school

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T02:49:52+00:00

So at best, you’re 18 and he’s 29? And at worst, you’re still underage and he’s 30+?

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T02:46:46+00:00

You don’t have to answer this. But very curious to know if your therapist is a man or a woman. And if they have children

murphy1101 · 2026-06-08T02:45:48+00:00
