LadyGlitterSparkles

I love Marvel movies, so I was pretty psyched to see it. IMO, Michael B. Jordan and Danai Gurira stole the show. Of course, I'm a big fan of both of them from previous roles. But there wasn't a bad actor/character in the bunch. The little Sparkles loved it, too, particuarly the 8 year old.

I enjoyed Anne of Green Gables, but it's probably more in my wheelhouse than most here given my gender and that I've previously read the book and seen the mini-series from the 80s several times.

This is my dream scenario. Get the Oklahoma rivalry back and leave K-State to wither and die in some nothing conference like they deserve.

I'm glad someone here understands. TBH, I expected those on this board to be a bit more rational and decent than what I've seen on other boards. I really wanted to take my boys to the spring game this year. They're just hitting that age where football is becoming cool to them and I wanted them to actually feel the excitement of being a Husker fan surrounded by the sea of red rather than just watching it on TV while their crazy mother screams at the screen. Since I can't afford to take them to a real game, I thought this would be the next best thing and for $10 (with them being free) plus parking, gas, and snacks, it would be doable. Now, I would never have handled it like that woman on Twitter... ranting like that just isn't my style. But I was genuinely really disappointed and a little sad at the lost opportunity while others who can already go to every single game were able to buy 20 tickets. I get why they got first dibs. But I also really don't like that they had the chance at 20 and I hope that changes next year.

I love Marvel movies, but it seems the villains are generally pretty forgettable. On the flip side, I can't stand DC superheroes, but the villains seem to be more entertaining at least to me. I've never read a comic book in my life, so does that hold true for the comics, too?

Think of "kind" as meaning "species." It's really a direct refutation of evolution. For example, He created whales (some versions of the bible mention whales specifically rather than "great sea creatures") as they are and they gave rise to more of their kind rather than evolving into something new.

Oh gosh, so much just on this page of this thread, to address, but I'll start here. I'm a single mom of 2 young boys and while their dad is around, I have chosen to be the one to take charge in educating my boys about these topics. My oldest in particular is VERY curious and asks questions about all subjects all the time. I'd say sex-related questions started coming from him at 3 years old. He started with just trying to understand anatomical differences. Then he wanted to know how babies are made. He was content with an egg/seed type explanation for a while, but eventually he wanted to know how the seed got inside the mom. As he's gotten older, he's heard things on tv or from friends/cousins that he wants to understand better. I have instilled it in him that he is allowed to ask me ANYTHING and I will not get mad or lie to him. There have been times when I've had to tell him that I need to think about the best way to answer and I will get back to him when I've thought about it more. He accepts that and I keep my word to address his question after I've formed an appropriate response. I'm not going to lie, this has led to some REALLY uncomfortable/amusing moments. "Mom, your fachina is awake at night because it's from China and they're awake when we sleep" (when he was younger). A grossed out "So, did you and dad have to do it more than once?" when I explained the more intricate details of how babies are made. And "Do you have to do it in a bedroom?" No idea where that one came from, tbh. Most recently he heard the word masturbation. Not going to lie... that was the most difficult one to explain for some reason. IMO, your friend handled her son's question perfectly. I don't envy her, but I respect her willingness to be honest and age appropriate with her response.

I had no idea there was a 3rd season of Broadchurch. I've already finished the newest season of The Ranch. But so excited to get back to Broadchurch once I finish The Five (just watched the first episode). Has anyone watched Dark yet? I highly recommend it to anyone who is not averse to reading subtitles (don't waste your time on the awful English dubbing). Sort of a Stranger Things meets Broadchurch sort of show, imo.

Once you look at my list, I think you'll see why I'm to the point where I don't know if I can, in good conscience, vote anymore. 1) Pro-life - This is an absolute requirement. I have never and will never vote for someone who is not pro-life. Yes, I am a woman. And as a woman who has been pregnant twice (and blessedly has 2 beautiful young boys), my feelings on this topic have only gotten stronger as I've gotten older. 2) Universal health care - Sadly, the candidates who are with me on issue #1 are inexplicably against me here. I am also a strong Christian and I will not look my Lord in the eye one day and tell Him that I was in favor of letting anyone, particularly children, die because they couldn't afford to see a doctor. 3) Legalize marijuana - I've never touched the stuff and have on interest in ever doing so. But to me, it just seems logical to make it legal and tax it the same way we do tobacco. In addition, I'm tired of people being sent to jail over something that is, as far as I can tell, actually less dangerous than alcohol. Remove the burden from our courts and prisons, stop creating criminals who now have had their lives and families destroyed, and take in more money in taxes... seems win/win/win to me. 4) Fight for the 2nd Amendment - Strong proponent of the right to protect myself and my family and will not vote for anyone who seeks to take that right from me. Find me a candidate that is with me on all 4 of these and I could overlook a lot of other issues.

This seems like a good place to mention that I have a very deep, VERY PERSONAL hatred of the University of Florida and that beating them in anything is the highest high while losing this would be the most excruciating loss we could have for me. So if our ladies could go ahead and take care of business, that would be great. Luckily I honestly think we've got this. Their 1 loss came to Kentucky in Gainesville and we handled Kentucky fairly easily. And while I didn't get to watch them last night, I didn't see anything that terrified me in their match against USC.

I love my Huskers as much as anyone and my boys are starting to follow suit. But I can not imagine, in good conscience, encouraging them to take on near $100k in debt so they can walk on at Nebraska if they're offered a scholarship literally anywhere else. I have no idea how you overcome that.

You aren't kidding. What in the af is the logic behind decisions like that? No wait... ESECPN, I almost forgot for a second. The announcing definitely had me nauseated towards the end. Whatever are they going to do if USC pulls this out and there's no SEC team in the final four at all.

I would have only been 3 or 4 when that play happened and I don't think I've ever actually seen a replay of it. Great choice.

The obvious (and true) answer is Tommie's "The Run" against Florida. But my second favorite would be Eric Crouch vs Iowa in '99.
