My book club as a question of the day and someone posted:
"Surprise! You're the next Jesus Christ, what food and drink would represent your body and blood?"

Woooow did the xtians in the group get MAD about it. "There's only ONE Jesus, how dare you imply otherwise?!"

I've been watching The Rookie for the last 2 weeks, Lucy is so gorgeous!!

And NY, and same, 32k was my starting pay. My required masters only increases my salary by a flat $500 🙄 my first school was only $200 increase after a masters.

Problem with that first guy " democrats should be jumping up and down celebrating" why would anyone celebrate what's going on??
Oh right, cause they are obsessed with other people being miserable.

Beautiful photos!!

I mean she does "something", a few months before elections she sends out tons of mailers saying "Dems are coming for your guns and tax money! Vote for meeeee!!!"

But yeah that's about it...

She's up for reelection in 2027, will just wait until then

Same, I was so looking forward to her being gone

Eventually the staff were so frustrated 40%~ left, many midyear and they couldn't find enough replacements. I'm a teacher in nearby district and I pulled my son and transfered him to mine. It was the school I graduated from and to see it decline from this stuff was incredibly sad. (2)

We had a MAGA extremists get on a local school board 4 years ago and he and his cronies destroyed it...Went on a massive anti lgtbq rampage, harrased the teachers and accused them of indoctrination, fought every meeting over the dumbest stuff (1)

1830s~ lots of German and Swiss Mennonites established communities. My mom does genealogy and there's a traceable path going back in my family tree

There is sizeable community in northern NY where I live.

I just wish they could expand to more rural areas. Nearest one to me is a 3 hour drive away 😭

I'm gonna go to Vancouver next when I finish Maui!

They are deeply conservative but also heavily religious and racist. They would rather get ripped off by white R then vote for a women of color from NYC.

Not so much up here, Trump flags are out in mass numbers and propaganda against D party is insane. IMO best play would to try to get a reasonable/moderate republican candidate that is not a MAGA extremist and might be willing to vote against some of the current agenda.
