I'm planning to do the same (so thanks for the link!) in addition to roping off the wild patches of milkweed in our hay fields so they don't get mowed by the farmer we lease our land to. I'll add on to this, if anybody out th

Just dropped everything and bought that stamp! I'm an artist so a sketchbook is just part of the job, but I have tried and failed for years to keep a proper planner. I like this, though, it's so easy and less overwhelming.

I live in a rural area and I go to "my" Dollar General so much I know all the people who work there. I'm not going to the Dolla G to do grocery shopping. I'm going there to get stuff like glue sticks, tooth paste, paper,

Speaking as someone in the TVA service area: it doesn't get any better. In fact, it gets worse.

I live in the kind of rural place you're talking about. Rural town of 2500, majority farmland/undeveloped, historically impoverished part of the country. Many people in my town are exactly what you'd expect. But a good fracti

This comment is so wrong it's not even wrong. The IRS is in charge of taxes. They have nothing to do with campaign finance laws. That's the Federal Election Commission's job.

Our demand for energy is NOT increasing, at least not in the US. Demand has flatlined since 2007 and more efficient appliances, bulbs, etc are to blame. I have TVA and they have been egregiously self-sabotaging their own solar program in al

I'm ADHD and have a hard time sitting through movies in movie theaters but got roped into seeing Inception somehow. I left aggitated and absolutely furious after sitting through a 3 hour movie with so little character development that

My cat is indoors only and made a couple escape attempts that were a little traumatizing for me (helicopter cat mom here), so while I considered getting him a leash once, I ultimately decided against it because I was afraid it'd make h

I live in a rural area, I love it when I go days at a time without leaving. I'm very strategic about my trips into town, and with few exceptions won't leave unless I have a minimum of two things I need to do. I definitely did WAY

I get my nails done regularly because I struggle badly with compulsive skin picking and chew on my cuticles a lot. They clean up my ragged cuticles for me (so I don't get carried away doing it myself and make them worse), and the nail

I had never heard of Paw Patrol until I got some Paw Patrol snack size ziplock bags at my local Dollar General because they were cheap. So cheap that they busted open when I was using them for dying plastic beads with alcohol ink. Beads and

I live in a small community in the rural American South, everything is too spread out to get anywhere quickly by walking. It's like a 7 minute drive to my post office. Lots of houses on my street living on pretty big parcels of land. I

Ah, yes, because the Hutus and Tutsis are trashing the environment with all the single use plastics in all the TV dinners they eat and with their big ol honkin gas guzzling SUVs. Lol what? You realize that the Amazon rainforest gets cut dow

I don't think anybody is forgetting the role of corporate entities. I think the individual aspect is what's being more forgotten about, or at least it seems that way looking at my Facebook feed. It's deeply distressing to me

Liberal in the South. Few things. 1. It's beautiful here, you mean paradise? 2. You realize the South is THE gayest part of America, right? One out of three LGBTQ people live here. Congratulations on erasing their existence. Reminder:

Thank you for this! I had a pretty successful Tumblr where I posted all my crazy, colorful class notes from my math and physics classes and I've been wanting to get all those scans off there and into another place for safe back up. I h

Seriously. And how else are you supposed to navigate the conversation to those things with a complete stranger you just met? Be a mind reader and know those things about them and ask them explicitly? I don't understand why these questi

I have always just asked "so what do you do?" because I'm in my 20s in a college town so I always assume that many of the people I'll encounter at bars etc are students. Leaves it open ended: are you in school? Are you w

Seriously. I've been on stimulants for ADHD for almost 25 years. The price I've paid is a few root canals due to dry mouth and I'm on beta blockers for a mild, benign arrhythmia I developed this spring. Beats the living hell

Coal IS immoral, and you don't even have to bring climate change into it. The US coal industry was built by exploiting the poor in Appalachia, from the beginning all the way until today, and then taking all the wealth out of the area a
