| Hi Harmonie, Welcome to New England! It is very LGBTQ+ friendly where I live. Hi, thanks! Yeah, if I ever find a girlfriend again that will be nice! Also will be nice for me to not have to hide so much the fact that I have an exgirlfriend. It's so awkward, as she has been/was very influential on my... |

| At this point, the IRS is not going after churches for anything. I don't know the precise reason for that, but it's ridiculous because churches are not only breaking the rules, but they are flaunting it. And what is the result of that? White Evangelicalism has become so intertwined with Republican p... |

| I went to the store and saw Fruity Cheerio's are back! They have been gone for years, I thought they were gone forever. It's my favorite cereal aside from Pumpkin Spice Cheerio's. I was in Walmart and there were other people in the aisle, but that didn't stop me from letting out an audible squeal (o... |

I know all too well the threat of Project 2025 and Christian Nationalists. Very scary, and I think it's about time people stop underestimating them. You'd think that may... |

I was sick and headachey a lot back in high school marching band. My band director assumed it was because on trip... |

| Wait - I thought that the United Methodist church was conservative and that caused the split to begin with? I'm confused. Haven't been watching it closely enough to understand all of the details I guess. My parents and I were a member of a Methodist church back in my teens, but my mom decided to lea... |

| Early music (like medieval music, Renaissance music and even some earlier) and also historical/ancient woodwind instruments are both pretty niche.

I guess I haven't thought much about it, but it tends to happen more from older women.
It bothers me when men do it, because it's a very different dynamic. |
