I have a weakness for an intense, almost unsettling gaze. It captures my attention beyond any other markers of conventional attractiveness.
Prayer is a call from God. When you love him you naturally pray, like when you love your mother you naturally pick up her call.

I’ve been switching dentists since I was 16. Every one of them was the same asshole. Probably will end up going to my friend who has a clinic nearby even tho I was avoiding this bc I don’t want him staring up mouth.
My dentist told me four years ago that I had two cavities that I never got filled, this year he said I had zero and when I asked him about the old two, he said “oh yeah I see them, and you have two more.”
Dental work around here is a scam 🥲
Oh, you’re absolutely right. I think parenting is the most difficult and simultaneously rewarding thing in the world. Anything *that* worthwhile will be challenging and I have empathy towards parents who do their best. I’m sure my perspective will be substantially different when I have my own kiddos.
Good to connect with another educator :)

Absolutely precious. I hope she watches this video with delight when she’s older :)
I work in education, with an endless number of disturbed children and I can say with certainty that their parents are at fault. Having been in this field and interacting with children all day, despite not having my own, gives me valuable insights about the effects of parenting on a child’s psyche, behavior, development, and quality of life.
My aforementioned stance took a lot of time to develop and I’m firm in it. I think many people would be better off going to therapy instead of bringing innocent lives into this world and making them suffer, and then subsequently making others suffer through their children’s disturbances.
This is the only way.
Some of them have gotten scouted for their teeth if they met other requirements.
Shit if I know. I’m 115 pounds of nothing but existential discomfort these days.
I disagree, they’re the ones who have a few important things to give a fuck about and give all the fucks in the world about them.
But in the end, stories are about one person saying to another: This is the way it feels to me. Can you understand what I’m saying? Does it feel this way to you?
