So being a female Christian influencer means being made up like a beauty contestant and sexualizing yourself performing mundane tasks like eating donuts, laughing, and sitting in a car?

In over their head...doesn’t have a clue...blames everyone else for their ineptitude....
He may be wearing glasses or a kilt or whatever, but that goatee is wearing an Adidas tracksuit 24-7.
Kilts are very flattering on pretty much everyone. I’ve been doing highland games* and have heard them referred to as “fat guy lingerie.” And you couldn’t appreciate his butt it because of the pleats.
I had to have my car towed twice in 2019, and sat with a guy at an accident recently. Tow truck drivers are gems.
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t actually a stranger, and I have a pretty good idea who it was, but one year near Christmas when I was a broke as fuck single parent and my ex kept dodging child support, I found a huge bag of gift cards hanging on my front door one morning. $200 for the grocery store, and a bunch of smaller…
My parents have gradually become wackado over the years. My mom now regrets having me vaccinated as a child, is completely onboard with the theory that coronavirus is a Deep State bioweapon, complains about the chemtrails she can see from her kitchen window, listens to all the nutjob rightwing radio shows, and if she…
When I was 18, my mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer. In the years prior to this she had cut off her family and separated from my father. She didn’t trust anyone so she made my barely a legal adult self her power of attorney. Six months after diagnosis she took a big turn for the worst and was mostly…
Technically not a stranger, but felt like an angel in the moment. I had sent my husband on a well-deserved 40th bday trip to see the Army/Navy game (husband is a Marine Corps vet). It was a bucket list thing for him, and even more special because his father (a Navy vet) passed away earlier this year. We had a…
I got really sick in my 20s and it was showing all signs of being cancer. I didn’t have health insurance (pre-ACA recent college graduate) so I applied to my state’s low-income health care coverage. I was working as a waitress at the time so my reported income was juuuuuust low enough for me to qualify but it was…
Pulling me out of two feet of water when i was drowning when I was a little girl on vacation with my asshole family at the Jersey shore.
I was in college and the hard drive of my fancy black MacBook gave out. I had saved a ton of money between graduation and college so I could buy it. My family isn’t poor, but I knew they wouldn’t have the discretionary budget on-hand to do anything about this, so I never told them.
As I was walking in a parking lot back to my car, underdressed, on a cold, windy day a car pulled up and the passenger explained that her grandmother knit scarves and they offered me a beautiful hand knit infinity scarf for free.
created a burner for this so not sure if it will be seen.
This is such a small thing, but it still sits with me. About 20 years ago, I was flying home with my garbage boyfriend after I’d brought him to meet my family for the first time at Thanksgiving. I now realize it was an emotionally and verbally abusive relationship, but at the time I just suffered constantly. On the…
I will tell you the kindest thing I’ve ever done for a stranger: I said the angelus in the middle of a coffee shop with him. This guy was old and obviously lonely and I wasn’t Catholic anymore, but he said how much he missed it, and he asked if I’d do it with him. The people in that coffee shop looked at us like we…
I did Peace Corps in rural Nicaragua. On 6-hour bus ride to visit a friend, I was thankfully seated next to a kind woman, Dona Maria, who loved all dogs. Some Nicaraguans regard the local street dogs as pests or dirty so traveling with my street dog rescue was sometimes a challenge on public transport. My seat mate…
When I was a little kid, my family just moved to a new (small) town. My mom had just had surgery and wasn’t supposed to do any heavy lifting or anything, but when she came out of the local library with me and my brother, she saw she had a flat tire. We were new in town, we had nothing, I don’t know if she had any way…
I got in a minor fender bender (A guy ran into the back of my car in a parking lot and then tried to gaslight me into not taking his insurance and said that “my parents would probably be upset if they found out I was in an accident.... bitch please with that condescension... you. hit. me. ) Anyways, I got his info and…
I’m happy to say I have a million stories I could share on this. 1) I took a very long bus ride home from college 4 nights a week. Because it was the last run of the night, I would be dropped well after 10pm and would walk down some very dark streets. When the driver found this out, he started(with permission of the…
