It’s like I never left Florida or Houston, they just followed me here.

Thinking about how my soon-to-be ex-SIL started to get my more-anti-religion-than-me brother to go to a local megachurch.

Hard fucking pass.

Besides fascists and fascists describing themselves as moderates, I’m also seeing more and more profiles like this, which are just as bad.

Bumble bio for Koree, 40-something in Chicago: I've been blessed to find a career that I love in teaching. I enjoy going out with friends and finding new places to eat, explore and visit. Also, I value fitness, travel, adventure and am a Christian looking for a man with similar interests. Never married and no kids.

At least with a date, I also wouldn’t need to bundle up to be outside for four hours.

Not paying almost 200 American dollars to be disappointed.

If I wanted to do that, I’d go on a date.

Reruns of this show played no small part in me becoming obsessed with college sports.

It can’t look the same, otherwise, we will just keep on making the same mistakes.

By the way, that RN manager who didn’t believe in the COVID vaccine listed said fancy cancer hospital as her employer! Don’t know why she was looking for single guys in Chicago though.

The MMR vaccine is one of the most stunningly effective medical therapeutics in existence. It’s also safer than most of your everyday activities. This is simply an attempt to stop people from vaccinating.

HELLody SchreiBOO @melodyschreiber.com · 1h

The acting director of the CDC called for new, separate MMR shots. That would be "remarkably complicated, time-consuming, costly, but more importantly unnecessary," @jasonlschwartz.bsky.social told me:

Alarm as CDC calls for separate MMR vaccines despite measles outbreak

Concerns that three separate shots would be more costly and time-consuming, and keep kids from being vaccinated

It is amazing how many people in rural Oregon believe Portland is burning.

Even those that just visited.
