I think that she had the very sudden realization that Glenn is going to war to die and that her son is basically playing at what could very likely happen to him soon. It made a lot of sense and I think showed her weak spot for Glenn again.

Right? My husband went to a private school full of entitled dick heads, definately more than my public school and my good friend who was homeschooled had a ton of entitled dick heads in her co-ops and activities. Entitled dick heads are EVERYWHERE.

I’m in the never heard of it camp too and after looking at the collection, I’m putting in the same “nope” category that Vera Bradley goes in.

I have relatives who live in the area and although my cousins went to a neighboring school district, I can almost guarantee they have exactly this type of stuff. My cousin was actively involved in Young Life for a time and it’s a pretty common club in that area.

It is a shockingly good art museum. Like, who knew? My multiple teachers who planned multiple field trips there from C-bus area apparently.

I adore True Grit. I read it and was like "why isn't this more commonly read?" Like, why doesn't everyone read it?

You are me aren't you? Like you took my brain? Because these were the first two books that came to my head for this. I also recommend The Moor's Last Sigh for the same vein.

I was exposed to a ton of food and yet my mother would despair because I still would never eat her mac and cheese, because I liked the box more. My husband rolls his eyes at me too, because I love a ton of food, had a ton of exposure to it young, and am still convinced that Kraft singles make the best grilled cheese

My siblings and I loved a lot of this stuff when we were that age, although we didn’t eat a ton of it (seafood + our part of the Midwest= expensive). When I was really little, my parents would give me the really briney, salty, cured meats that they didn’t like but people gave them. Like, they’d be over at someone’s

My friend's kids have started to discover them. They're young still, they've only seen the first couple of movies, but ADORE them. Once they're at the right reading level, I think they're devour them, as will a lot of our generation's kids (I'm your age). My cousins are just the right age and starting to discover them

I don't know though, I wasn't around in the 60s or 70s but can watch movies and shows from then with not just old technology and fashion, but old production values and still appreciate them. I have no nostalgia for decades before my birth and do recognize certain things as old, but a quality story with a good script

Oh my god, I love stories about little kids learning language, because seriously our language is so weird that it’s hilariously honest watching them figure it out.

I'd argue Eugene's pretty damn good at survival, he basically tricks people into doing it for him and putting their lives above his. I give that credit, so long as he doesn't get separated.

My parents made $80,000 if you include benefits (they have excellent health care), at the time of their retirement teaching public school. It wasn’t for very long though, basically only as they hit the very very top of seniority, with at minimum one masters’ degree (my dad, for example, has a masters + enough hours

Both of my aunts and my uncle had their kids around 40-45. You might get mistaken for their grandmother sometimes, but it’s not that weird (it is the only complaint my aunt has about having her only kids at 45).

Oh jesus, 18 months of election cycle. I’ll be in my corner waiting for it to end.

So much. My cousin has had about 3 different positions in the 4 years since graduating because of the budget cuts (she’s lucky to live in a really populated area with a lot of schools per district because she can find new jobs without having to move) and is looking at fewer benefits than our parents because of how our

tend to attract white/Anglo, middle class folks who “want to make a difference”, rather than folks who want, and need, to make good money.

And can we mention how much more comfortable Docs are than other shoes. I can get behind a lot of 90s fashion for the pure comfort levels.

They’re usually pretty good about it, but there are times when it’s like “oh left overs for lunch... oh we only have left over pizza... and it’s Hawaiian... cereal for lunch then...” They’ve started being good about checking sauces- BBQ sauce by and large has a lot of pineapple juice in it.
