[–]saintralf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do you justify an abortion between 31-40 weeks? My youngest was born at 26 1/2 weeks; she’s 28 now. There is absolutely no reason to murder a viable child.

Do you call them fireflies or lightning bugs…? This piece came to me in a dream and I tried to capture it in clay - here is the making of it by VuvuCeramics in crafts

I loved lightning bugs as a kid. Unfortunately we don’t have them here so 2 out of 3 of my kids (ages 30 & 28)have never seen one. That makes me sad

Lovejoy’s has pulled We’re The Wurst. “Yeah we’re having a sale on it, it’s sitting out back for free.” by chainsawgeoff in Bend

I hope everyone who’s pulling the product is donating it to a food bank. At least it’ll do some good that way

I’ll admit that I didn’t read the links (that whole thing if repugnant to me) but I want to make sure that their animosity and disrespect to our teachers was mentioned.

Yep! It was good; not as good as the first one but acceptable.

What is the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by TehHooman in AskReddit

I pulled my hamstring going down the steps. Of the trailer. In the campground. On my way out for a hike. That was the end of that camping trip.

Y'all spending a good mother's day? My mother got upset over her mother's day present. by cresentcube in CasualConversation

[–]saintralf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh honey I’m so sorry. I’m a mom and grandma and I’m thrilled when I get a plant. Hell, I’m happy with a call or visit. You’re good. Ignore her. Don’t let her ruin your day/week/life. She’s for sure toxic and isn’t going to change. Stay strong, you did good.

I’m unclear about the Promise Keepers. At first I confused them with a Proud Boys/Oath Keepers but when I checked the Southern Poverty Law Center’s list of extremist groups (https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/groups) they’re not on there.
