I'm glad I revisited Tomie after reading it at 14, though it's difficult to articulate how it makes me feel

@Crazypedia Very happy seeing this lil thing popping out. I removed the plastic covering under the mulch when we moved in last year and it's been interesting seeing what grows

Even when I was little, I never felt another presence when I prayed.

I realized the god I envisioned was just an avatar I created to represent what I thought god would say based on Bible stories and the moral teachings of the adults around me. Praying was really a decision making exercise, working through the possible consequences of XYZ.

Since any conceptualization of god would still be coming from my own brain, I cut out the middleman and took charge of my own moral development. I don't pray, but I continually interrogate my thought processes and beliefs. Ultimately, we all have to live with our decisions, and i'd rather be empowered to make good ones.

Are there any special librarians on here willing to do a short (30 minute) virtual interview? The info will be used for a class paper.

By special librarian, I mean someone working in a specialized library as part of a larger organization (ex. medical/military/nonprofit/student org librarians, archivists, corporate intelligence, etc!)

What are the consequences if I can't make the full monthly payment on my federal student loans? They want $500/mo starting in November and I can't do that until the car is paid off.

You ever have that moment of realization when talking to someone IRL, that they've never even spoken to a sex worker, trans person, or maybe even person of color? Yet they're still out here acting like they know what's best for everyone

Stuff K-12 schools in the U.S have said they can't do because it's too hard:

*Teach kids to read
*Grade based on performance
*Prepare kids for college level material
*Protect kids from shootings
*Protect kids from violence
*Make sick kids mask
*Enforce rules equally regardless of race
*Enforce rules equally regardless of gender

What are they even doing in there all day?

No Child Left Behind was in place all throughout my time there and it's pretty funny how they had posters up in big red font saying stuff like "FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION" when the school district was failing on every single metric.

@Crazypedia What is kills me is that multiple teachers tried to explain communism by saying "Imagine if you earned an A, but it was split with someone who earned an F, so you both get C's! How horrible!"

Then they would put me in a group with 3 low performers and make me do all their work.

Hive-minding this one. My taxes are basically the most simple they could be and little has changed since last year (similar amount, same work, same method of filing, no dependents or ANYTHING like that). I can't remember if I've gotten one of these letters before, I feel like maybe I have? Anyone else ever get one? Does it delay your refund massively?

@jake4480 You could have been flagged by the computer for some bullshit reason. Maybe check your credit reports though to see if anyone is using your SSN

@jake4480 @artlung @buermann that makes sense, glad it's not an audit or something!

The left has always neglected youth outreach for whatever reason. There's some support for LGBTQ+ kids, which is important work, but conservatism is the default children are raised in, and there's no alternative voice to the army recruiters and evangelicals who post up wherever kids are - especially schools.

Now, progressives are afraid to talk to kids because of the risk - nobody wants to be labeled a pedo or a groomer. Meanwhile, the kids are being brainwashed by Andrew Tate and Moms for Liberty. Where do we go from here?

The Black Panthers provided free breakfast to kids. Lawmakers caught on and now organizers for Food Not Bombs are regularly threatened with arrest for serving food without permission.

I'm glad Taylor Swift is making the football chuds angry. I hope they stop watching. I hope the stadiums are torn down and replaced with community gardens
