This is how I feel about all attribution to god

“We were so blessed god saved our son from leukemia”

Ok so you think he chose to intentionally kill the other kids who didn’t survive? Why would you worship a god like that?

There’s a wonderful lesson in the movie “Bull Durham” about how to give innocuous sports interviews. I’m pretty sure all these guys get a similar lecture.

I call this “The Green Hand Principle.” If I said, “Your hand is green” you’d glance down to see if you spilled ink on it. You’d say, “No, it’s not. Why do you say that?” You wouldn’t be angry about it or demand I apologize, because it’s not true. Anger and demands for an apology mean it’s true.

The advent of SM has upended their ability to control women’s community. They can’t isolate and gaslight us as successfully as before.

Evolution is starting to work as intended. These ones shouldn’t be allowed to breed.

The sickening thing to me are the men who have a child or children to make sure they inherit from their parents.

I swear to god, out of all the women my wife knows or is nominally friends with, probably 80% have been cheated on. And of those, almost all of them are beard-o, alpha male, MAGA "Christians."

It's literally a joke at this point. (And not a good one.)

As I've said before: we tried lots of things to stop husbands mysteriously dying after eating a delicious home-cooked meal, or being clumsy around stairs, but divorce is the only one that actually worked.

I'm a divorce coach/mediator- couples split because they're unfulfilled, disregarded, abused, demoralized, shut out, lonely, exhausted, etc- not just 'unhappy'. When one or both parties realize they can move on, the relief is often palpable. Divorce can be a true blessing, & a lease on a new life.
