    Shit My Kid Says

    Enjoying reading through this thread. Back in 2014 when our kids were 6 (son) and 4 (daughter) we were in LA for a long weekend. One morning at breakfast we told the kids we were taking them to Knott’s Berry Farm (it’s an amusement park) after breakfast. So, we’re in the car heading down the highway and about 10 minutes into the drive our son says, “Why is it taking so long? I thought we were going to Not Very Far.” Now that kid is 17 and starting the college application process.
  2. Here’s another one
  3. It’s real https://trumpstruth.org/search?query=Stock+markets
  4. The wife and I saw G Love & Special Sauce tonight. August Hall in SF. Great venue, btw.
  5. And as the the Ghost of Christmas Past in Scrooged
  6. https://ukdefencejournal.org.uk/norwegian-fuel-supplier-refuses-u-s-warships-over-ukraine/ “Norwegian fuel company Haltbakk Bunkers has announced it will cease supplying fuel to U.S. military forces in Norway and American ships docking in Norwegian ports, citing dissatisfaction with recent U.S. policy towards Ukraine.”
  7. Isn’t that a Garth Brooks song?
  8. JFC. Why would they sabotage a deal with Ukraine for a stake in their mineral rights? Could it be…………Putin?!
  9. I will be ok as my wife (EE degree from UT) is a VP and makes very good money. One more promotion for her and I’m retiring. Hopefully, this is just a speed bump for your daughter. Honestly though, going into industry for a bit could be a good thing for her.
  10. To be clear, I am joking. My work is grant-funded as well and focuses on transition (special education not gender).
  11. Finally, a fraud-proof immigration system!
  12. “A suspect has not yet been identified, but investigators believe that the victim knew the perpetrator and are treating this case as a potential domestic violence incident. However, the perpetrator's motive remains unclear.”
  13. Smart move. Although, the edits would make the document an instant classic.
  14. I was a decent JC basketball player and DIII wide receiver; however, becoming a female in order to be more dominant in a sport never crossed my mind. Man, I could have been a DI All-American in women’s basketball.
  15. Agree. The situation I mentioned happened a few years before COVID. I am sure best practices have been updated. I’m sure that a designation of non-binary is frightening to some people.
  16. My wife’s sister is a pediatric urologist and has worked with families to choose a child’s gender in cases where the child’s sex characteristics are ambiguous. She has created penises and vaginas. Say the parents and doctor choose male (which is what a Dad chose after my wife’s sister gently recommended female based on the situation). What happens later as the child is growing up and identifies more as female? Is that person a male or female?
  17. Was going to post that one
  18. I wasn’t sure where to put it. Since trump and republicans are pushing the idea that transgender people shouldn’t exist, don’t deserve any rights, or are sub-human, I posted it here. An admin is free to move it to a different forum.
  19. I wasn’t sure where to post it. It might be a good idea to post it there, as well. More people need to know about this horrible crime.
