Lol family tree looking like a wreath

The peach slushees at bobs were the only thing that got me through my senior year. Miss having that place right outside my door.

What’s even worse is that so many of us really do try to make it work. I’ve been quiet about my stances around my family for years because I couldn’t stand to see the same people who taught me tolerance and compassion turned into hateful, uninformed zombies (and I naively hope that they are still those people under everything else) But when roe was overturned it caused something in me to snap because the people who should be my greatest supporters were celebrating a decision that could kill me. They also watched my uncle struggle and eventually pass away from working so hard to make his crushing student loan payments. Like, all of these issues have shaped the lives of someone they personally know but it’s not enough to drive it home to them.

I’ll never understand how they can put fiscal policy decisions over actual human lives. Especially since they’re not in any of the tax brackets that actually benefit from them.

I thought it was especially great that she resisted doing anything home/housewares related for so long and now her name is clogging up the aisles at every tj maxx.

I couldn’t clear MEPS because of it. The recruiters tried every waiver and trick they could think of but the doctors wouldn’t let me through.
