My mum used to cook mince in the microwave. From raw.

8:16 am, woke up not long ago and doing my morning routine of checking Lemmy.

Trying hard to save the girl, obstacles, I’m jumping hurdles, I’m growing up to be a big boy

My mum’s abusive. I learnt early on that just because someone is a religious leader that doesn’t make them a good person. My dad was always the better of the two, I thought he was okay, but now he’s older I’ve heard him express opinions I can’t agree with, support for political ideals that are questionable at best. I’m not sure how I feel about it all.

My cat

As a millennial I’ll have you know I absolutely know how to use a rotary phone. I had a toy one as a kid.

Laziness doesn’t exist, it’s made up, there’s always an underlying cause

It’s a shame they weren’t then

I appreciate your response and the other person who replied to you is right as well, but I wanted to add that I can “appreciate” Bible stories the same way I can appreciate other myths or legends, many of which the Bible stories originated from. I love mythology, it fascinates me, especially seeing who borrowed from who, but that doesn’t make them real or worth worshipping.

I read the Bible. I started asking questions about things in the Bible that didn’t match science, I loved science (still do), but nobody wanted to answer my questions, they’d just get mad, so I started seeking information elsewhere and came across atheist or ex-religious sources who answered the questions I had. Those sources also helped me realise the damage that had been done to me mentally, which I’m still working on overcoming.

She doesn’t mind. She meows in reply or comes running when he does it, and he doesn’t do it very often.

My partner named our cat Lana because he wanted to be able to scream “LAANAAA!” like Archer

When I was still being taken to church I won the door prize at youth group (church for teens) one night during a special event we were running (some thing to encourage people to invite their non-believing school friends and show how “hip” and “fun” they were, there were raffles and video games alongside our usual “live music”, skate ramps and bbq). The prize itself was a mobile phone. I was so happy because I didn’t already have one, but ultimately my parents decided I couldn’t have/use it until I got a job to pay for the credit. I did eventually get a job at KFC and was able to use the phone.

Another time I was visiting NZ with my parents and we were touring the base of a mountain and the guide was like “guess the height and whoever gets closest wins this pen”, I won but my mum made me give the pen back because she thought I’d cheated somehow? Idfk. Still a bit salty about the pen.

I found out when looking into the term “tomboy” that a “tom” was a term for a boisterous and unruly boy. The word “tom” does come from tomcat as others have said because unneutered tomcats are often loud and unruly. I suspect Peeping Tom has a similar “tom” origin: an unruly boy that peeps on girls.

My 2yo cat likes to lay on the carpet and pull herself along instead of walk

Huh. I’m only a few episodes in but it seemed promising so far. Oh well.

I’ve experienced the same thing. I miss it sometimes.

Dr Phil is also no longer legally a doctor.
