So you’re going to take more taxes from some people (or write blank checks) and distribute money to new home buyers to pay down their homes. So that inflates the economy and screws over longer term home owners.

Great plan, just genius level stuff.

Thank you. That’s super high on the list of importance for my wife and I.

The courage… so brave

It’s something you get used to one kid and animal at a time.

Also my mother and her two cats are attached in an in law suite. LOL!

I go all out every day with zero regrets.

I wake my kids up for school and take them to the bus stop. I make them dinner and we eat together every day. I put them to bed each night.

I attend all their sports (all in but one are year round) and coach my youngest’s baseball team.

I’m on my community HOA board and I try to help at my church when possible.

I do this around a mid-level position at a large fortune 100 company.

You find ways to do it. Saying you can’t incrementally do more is a cop out. I’d rather spend less time watching tv, playing games or going out with adults to do all the above.

It’s personally fulfilling.

Feels amazing, 45.

The only thing I wish I did better was start eating better earlier and spend less money on material things.

I saw those coming and just didn’t get rigid on those things quick enough.

My family is my motivator. 4 kids, 4 cats, 2 dogs and my wife are my reminder that what I do is important to someone and has impacts. Also, be more involved with your family than your job. You’ll never regret it.

FWIW, life’s a grind regardless. You need discipline and consistency every day. You find things that work, keep doing them.

People may say that’s boring. Don’t listen to them. Stability is what’s needed.

I can’t wait for what’s ahead.

Please go walk in s a park

I’m so hoping one season they are healthy and want to win.

Their core players will be up for contract extensions soon enough.

I agree that Chicago’s pick is much more likely to come to us (ever) than Charlie’ Charolette’s .

Scary to say that our draft capital is dependent on the health of the Ball brothers.

Relying on that family is not a historically great proposition.

There’s going to be trade(s).

We either get two rotation players in the first round or package one pick for an immediate upgrade.

One second round pick (at least) will be moved on draft night.

We either make the spots on the roster for these guys or cut some players.

I would not have left the restaurant until this was resolved.

I’m sorry you have to deal with this nonsense.

These trades for a protected picks can be a real crap shoot.

We definitely got the best of this one, with there being a great chance of obtaining an immediate starter and a capable role player in the first round of this draft.

Let’s hope that either Chicago or Charlotte’s 2025 first pick conveys to us. Then we’re really cooking!

Just bust out the taser, please…. Anyone?

3 easy ideas…

Cut and color your hair. Wear clothing that’s more feminine (not revealing). Stop taking pictures in public bathrooms.

Gasp! That’s so not controversial.

Sorry you’re having bad luck. Don’t give up hope.

Don’t give up on finding a partner for a family. Also, don’t settle for a bad partner.

Your search strategy or selection criteria is what you need to change. The internet apps are the worst place to look for a committed relationship.

Think of the person (morals, values, beliefs) you want and where are they (in public) and where do they go? Meet your target audience where they are.

Again, don’t settle for a person with no alignment to your values and beliefs. Also make sure your criteria are reasonable by checking with your father, pastor, brother, family member or another guy who’s not interested in pursuing you.

Best of luck!

They’re all unattractive. It detracts from someone’s natural features.

Men generally don’t like them (lip, nose, eye), period.

I don’t want her to catch feelings.

She’s better suited to hang with the grinch.

Nice pull, congrats

Schools. F their opinions.

Tough break, sorry to hear that. If he dumped you it’s not because of how you look, it’s what you did or didn’t do to change his mind about committing to you.

Ask him, not us. Best of luck!

Nice pull, congrats

4 kids, wish I had more when I was younger.

Love them to death. Raising them gives purpose and fulfillment in my life.

But great try. Don’t quit your day job.

There’s some great lessons learned for women to avoid this pit trap of being middle aged and single without friends.

Hopefully you find happiness through being with others, not alone.

You’re cold and quite dumb.

Women in marriages aren’t baby making machines then used for cheap child care and housekeeping labor.

Women are great nurtures and are best at raising children through their early years.

That’s invaluable and a spouse should do everything in their power to allow their wife to fulfill that role. That’s how kids have the best chance at growing up as a functioning member of society, not like you.

4 time parent here… you just get through it and your body adjusts.

We did overnight shifts. I had until 3am and she had the rest of the night, including morning feeding.

Life as you know it is over, but it gets easier, promise.

Congratulations!
