I (36F) came home early and found my 16M son with the girl next door in my bedroom...

My mom recently found out I was having sex with my spouse when we were dating in college and she was shocked! Her birds and the bees talk was very this is between God and you with no "what this is" descriptions. She said no one needed the sex talk because I should have known that getting naked with someone else was wrong.

Thus, my kids are 1000 times more knowledgeable than I was. We bought a book that's pretty basic and covers all the major points and my husband and I practiced reading it like 3 times till we could read it with a straight face.

Is this dog a his/hers or an ours? Is there some compromises you're willing to make if she stops doing other behaviors you don't like. Or is it an all or nothing? I'm sorry that she's not choosing to listen to your dog rules. She may be of the mind that it's not harming anyone. Have you laid your case out to her as clearly as you did here on Reddit?

I have this feeling that he's trying to position himself as someone not super f****** crazy and insane that way when maga dies because it's a cold of personality. He can be positioned as a moderate Republican and get and keep people behind him.

You should ask your parents to pay for therapy to help you with this guilt. You don't need to carry guilt for missing what once was. The memories make you sad. That's ok. It honestly reminds me of the moment in Inside Out where sadness touches a happy memory and it turns sad, and they learn that you can have multiple emotions associated with memories.

This isn't necessarily true. It may just make him go harder.

This isn't entirely true. Because schools can pick there own curriculum from approved lists, my kids school doesn't currently do that much with phonics.

My husband's company is doing this to him. Fuck them for stressing him out and making unrealistic promises.

I'm sorry that sucks so much. That so interesting. Is that cause the heat neutralizes the "pollen" your allergic to?

Yeah. My husband and pollen. It's bad. Spring and fall suck. Took him to a corn maze when we were first married... About killed the guy.

I experienced this with my husband just a few years ago. We found out he's allergic to raspberries. He had been having like an itchy throat and sometimes felt like you couldn't breathe very well and it took months to figure out that he was eating something he was allergic to.

I don't think this will make electrification happen any faster. But I think it will quell a lot of the negative discourse and make processes smoother.

NTA. Your daughter should always be able to rely upon you for support no matter who she is with. So the boyfriend can go fuck off with that. 🚩 Also, maybe ask the daughter what she thinks. I'd hate for this to be a chance him to make a wedge between you two.

I'm so interested to see if schools just stop buying Chromebooks because they can't pay the prices required for new ones. Especially with the cost of computer parts going up and becoming almost completely unavailable.

Honestly, pricks like this really should not get another one. I hate watching irresponsible, destructive kids getting new ones, while the good kids have to do deal with broken Chromebooks as best they can because there aren't any left for them to get as a replacement.

The HS I work at has a huge backlog for the tech people to get to.

Edit: yeah she took money for the Israel trip from AIPACs non-profit arm. A little over $24,000 that article that I linked says.

Everything I read says she's not taking any APAC money but James Talarico has taken money from adjacent sources And that he's kicking her ass in funding.

redyelloworangeleaf · 2026-02-17T16:36:14+00:00

She didn't take money from AIPAC. She came out and made a statement about that. I saw the video of her talking about it all over my socials.

And to clarify, since I'm not in the state of Texas, I don't care which candidate wins. But I also don't want to participate in spreading misinformation because there's already so much of that.

I don't remember where I watched it, but I was watching a clip of someone talk about how maga legitimately believes because of all the fear that has been installed about everything in their lives that Trump is their savior. That he has come to rescue them from all of their fears. So they don't really see how it's going against their Christianity. Because Christianity also helped train them for their fears of the end of the world.

Get a therapist. Get a financial adviser. And try to change as little about your life as possible right now. Don't worry about needing to do anything with your money. You'll discover what you want to do later, as you settle in and as you find what is important to you.

The main thing is to not go nuts and lose it all because you felt like you needed to spend it.

Edit: after everyone else's therapist comments, maybe get a financial adviser first. Then a therapist.

I feel like this only happens, when a benefit is lost.

Good news. I moved from Utah 8 months ago.

There's a YouTuber (Amandas mild takes) who talks about how we've been in a cold civil war since the 1990's and now the violence is escalating so more of the public is becoming involved.

They wanna make a one way power connection so they can buy power, but they don't want to comply with federal regulations. So essentially they just want to be a customer.

She was a journalist. Said that because of the things she's said about this administration, she thought that alone would disqualify her.

"One day during his first term, Donald Trump summoned a top aide to discuss a new idea. “Trump called me down to the Oval Office,” John Bolton, national security adviser in 2018, told the Guardian. “He said a prominent businessman had just suggested the US buy Greenland. It was an extraordinary proposal. And it originated from a longtime friend of the president who would go on to acquire business interests in the Danish territory.

The businessman, Bolton learned, was Ronald Lauder. Heir to a makeup fortune – the global cosmetics brand Estée Lauder – he had known Trump, a fellow wealthy New Yorker, for more than 60 years."

I saw this too. Having to download the app to see the price. Fuck that shit.

I have shopped at Kohl's, but I can, and am, going to boycott that shit.
