Reading On the Banks of Plum Creek as a child: Wow, it's so great that Laura and Mary get to live in this awesome new house instead of that weird little underground dugout.
Reading On the Banks of Plum Creek as an adult: PA INGALLS!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? YOU DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY FOR THIS!! The dugout is FINE!! You can wait a year until you actually HAVE a wheat crop and the money from it!! Why do you so shamelessly court disaster??
Ive had control of our (my husband's and my) finances for only 2 months and things are already so much better i cannot believe it. Other than my student loans we have no debt, we actually have money in our savings account, we can finally donate regularly, and all of our bills are paid with no worry! This is the 1st time in my life that I'm living like this!
I said this to my husband and he's like ~i guess >:[~ so i asked what the hell he meant by that and he's like we dont have any spending money and im just ಠ_ಠ r u fucking serious. I literally just bought him a fairly expensive dnd book.
I'm losing my mind over here x_x once we reach our saving goal I'm going to make him open a roth IRA. We WILL be financially healthy and responsible i dont care if it means he can't spend money on every little bit of detritus that crosses his path.
Listen if ur not the "breadwinner" in the household you need to be involved with the budget. Do NOT just trust the earning partner. You need to KNOW were your money is going.
when i was in highschool one o my biggest coping mechanisms was drawing all the kids i hated getting killed and eaten and killed. and well. time is a slowly ascending spiral. you will find patterns.(i work as a blackjack dealer. gamblers are FASCINATING
I have such a love-hate relationship with Kie's parents. Love you for caring about your daughter's education, but hate you for stopping her from clearing John B's name. Love you for recognising how much danger she's in because of what she gets up to with the Pogues, but hate you for not listening when Kie is trying to get you to understand her. Love you for thinking that sending your daughter away will finally protect her from all the kidnapping/shooting/killing/drowning/disappearing, even though it breaks your heart, but hate you for sending your daughter away.
my one lunch break is my one break and this is the coworker that was "helping" me in my class yesterday. And by help I mean she sat and a chair and left me to do everything by myself
apparently my freebooted spotify app/desktop decided i am not actually in netherlands so i can't access it.
well. deleting the acc and will try again in 7 days.
thing with using a somewhat-custom proxy... you don't particularly get a similar ip every time. so the region-locking shits keep acting up. and i created the acc on the free vpn which worked better with that setting, but my proxy doesn't give me a choice.
in general: fuck my life, this is an another addition to a horrible miserable day i am already having, i will find a way to scam you out of a premium account because you gave me no choice otherwise for your service <3
A heads up to a certain subcategory of western leftists: we are actually planning to demand reparations from russians after we win this war, so you can start preparing your "reparations are inherently wrong" arguments now
"yeah your book has queer characters in it but is it interesting?"
i agree with the sentiment but these kinds of takes always make me think abt myself at age 14, desperately trawling the local small town library for any books with any mention of gay people (there werent many, at least that i could find at the time). i scoured internet forums for lists of queer books, but i didnt know the right key words and what i did find our library or local book stores usually didnt have and wouldve been really expensive to ship to finland. back then i wouldve read the phone book if youd told me there was a queer character in it.
i guess its just hard to get my head around how much more access there is nowadays. just looking for gay books is infinitely easier, theres a million lists online. if i walk into my local bookshop there will always be a gay romance book on the "trending on tiktok" shelf.
ofc these days the popular sentiment is "who cares if theres queer characters in a book, what matters is that its good". and thats a good thing!! its what we deserve!! but damn it sends my head spinning how much things have changed in just a decade
