Today I had to call a customer service line and when Debbie with a thick Southern accent answered, I felt a sudden surge of happiness and well-being

It's both!!! There's a cyst on my ovary and at least a fluid sack in my uterus, we'll see next week of it keeps growing into a gestational sack!! I have good margins on my sack so doctor is hopeful and we're keeping an eye on the cyst and if it grows we'll look at removing it…
Prison rape is not a just punishment. We should not outsource justice to the savages in our prisons. We should have the courage to execute murderers by our own hand. A free society demands it.
Absolutely cannot stand normie sadism in regards to "prison justice." Everyone knows and feels in their heart that life in prison isn't justice but instead of advocating for what needs to be done in terms of horrific crimes, apparently it is more humane to cross your fingers…

Shout-out to Becky from ReliOn who explained how to use my blood glucose meter without making me feel like an idiot even though I was objectively being kind of dumb

Every evening my son brings his 6 foam swords and axes to the park and he organizes a group of assorted age children into two warring tribes. They then do his bidding and face off in battle. Slightly concerned and also slightly impressed.
DELIBERATELY bring dragons back? No

Let us remember that the standard by which we read others will eventually be applied to us "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."
Our eldest son is 14 and his hands are officially bigger than mine I have the long fingers of a tall woman, which make everyone ask if I play piano, so you know that means he's got some big ol man hands now
Yes! Read the Psalms for proper application (149 is a personal favorite)
Christianity trains men to wield agency, power, and authority with wisdom. Sentimental religion strips them of it, gelding them, then calling it holiness. One forms strong men. The other neuters them into passivity.
So that ultrasound I insisted on? They found a mass in my left fallopian tube and it's either a tumor or another ectopic pregnancy, I would covet your prayers at this time.
Me: I'm having this weird symptom. Dr: It's probably nothing, but there's a small chance it's [deadly thing]. Me: Okay so let's make sure it's not. Dr: It's probably nothing, we'll check it in 2 weeks. Me: Are your willing to risk your life on that? Dr: ...my life? Me: You…

No one in my house can see anything that’s been on the floor for days until I put it in the trash and then suddenly they all have x-ray vision
Another battle in the war to keep our little girl from growing up to be Miss Bossy Pants: No, you may not persecute your little brother by chasing him down (and making him cry!) so you can check to see if his pants are on backwards
