Yes

I have to wake up extra early to make sure I get my goose and chicken coops cleaned before it gets too hot. It's miserable.

Oh yeah I know it's cheaper to help the disabled, but y'know 'murica. As for who said that too me, it was a coworker.

I'm sorry you feel stuck right now. I know you don't want to hear this, but if you want to achieve your dream of a family you are going to need another job and therapy. Even if the women of your dreams showed up ready to get pregnant right now, you're not ready. Do you really want to raise kids who know daddy hates himself? Do you really want your family to deal with your emotional spillover? Teaching kids emotional regulation is HARD and damn near impossible if you are struggling yourself.

There is nothing wrong with wanting a family. That is a fine goal and a perfect thing to look forward to. Many poeple are starting families later just bc of the cost of living, so I don't think you will be too old even if it takes you another five years to get there.

There is someone out there for everyone. Maybe she can make all the money and you can be a stay at home dad! But you gotta get up, flip off the fucking world, and get a job and start putting together a social life of poeple who care about you. Stay safe and remember you are valuable and worthy of self love.

Trump needs a glass of warm milk and a nap in a jail cell, not to be running for president.

For some reason there's a lot of hate for disabled poeple. It's like poeple view them as a ugly drain on society. I had a guy tell me to my face disabled poeple should be dead. Source: husband is disabled.

It's fine, the peasants will just suffer and die, there's always more peasants.- ol' Meatball Ron.

I wish I could upvote you more than once for this. I appreciate the view from the front lines, as it were. Everywhere I look poeple are being asked to do more with less and for less. I don't know how much longer these systems are going to hold out at the rate we're going.

Not OP but I can visualize great, still have no sense of direction.

No. Not a tankie. It would be nice if autocorrect let me type tankie and not talkie. I had to cut and paste it I'm not proud.

They sell carpender bee traps at the local feed store. It always makes me sad to see them. Leave the carpender bees alone! They don't need to be killed just because you think they are a pest.

Is this just a new fancy way of saying money laundering?

When poeple went on political rants at work I would say "let's play a game. It's called Don't Talk Politics at Work. I'll go first!" Then I would shut up, turn around and keep on working. Just replace politics with whatever. It's low key funny with a deadpan delivery so I've never had anyone get mad at me for it.

They are, standing up and leaving those states in droves.

Me alone in the forest, lost and confused: huh I thought at least one of them would be here!!???

Don't be afriad to involve her in your stuff, even if it's boy stuff. My dad taught me how to fix cars, wilderness survival, how to shoot guns, how to fix stuff, it didn't matter that I was a girl, if I was interested he'd show me. I didn't care that this was boy stuff, I just liked that I was helping dad.

With the bonus payoff of me being a rather handy cabable adult too! Although he did his fair share of playing Barbie and tea party as well.

She might not like all of your hobbies (I never liked fishing) but give it a shot! Don't be afraid just bc some stuck up parents would be agast she's learning to change the oil in the car.

Do you have any friends or family that could leave reviews or contact the manager about her? I agree that customers complaints might have more weight. Maybe have a friend ask to speak to the manager when she pulls something visable. That way your hands are clean and management has no reason to single you out.

I mean I agree it sucks. I wish like hell I DIDN'T have to profile 50% of the population like this just to survive unscathed.

Am women, love hiking. Have encountered bears many times. I stay calm, keep my distance and appreciate them for the beautiful animals they are. (And yes, I'd pick bear, everytime.)

The key here, in case you missed it Mr. Red, is that I don't know the intentions of the man. I'm rolling a dice on whether this hypothetical man is one of the good ones. The bear might kill me, it might not, but it's not going to harass me once I get out of the forest. It's not going to text me at all hours of the day and night asking for a chance because it got me out of the forest. The bear isn't going to show up at places I'm at and attempt to talk to me. The bear isn't going to contact everyone I know on social media trying to convice them they are a nice bear who just needs to go on a date with me. The bear won't write me emails telling me I'm a bitch ass stuck up whore when I refuse them.

It's not just the forest, Mr. Red, it's after the forest. It's the fallout. I'd rather get ripped apart than take a chance a get a Nice Guy. Once I am out of the woods, I never have to think about that bear again. If it's a man I run the risk of always having to look over my shoulder, and depending on his level of crazy, maybe getting stalked for the rest of my life.
