New England is not Alaska, but it has its perks.

#28 I may live in Massachusetts now, but you can have my Alaskan 907 when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

I made a whole bulletin board about it. Listed different education levels from drop out to doctorate, what jobs each prepared you for, and average wages. I was teaching on tribal land in Alaska and knew most of my kids weren't interested in a bachelor's degree.

Look, sometimes I zone out while driving, and my husband asks me what I'm thinking about and I tell him it's my"you have been found guilty of treason" speech before I fix the entire cabinet. And he reminds me that's not good for my mental health. Because I wouldn't make it onto the grounds, let alone into the cabinet room. But a girl can dream, right?

Is it the secret service? Because that's pretty much the only thing stopping me these days.

I was told they'd been protesting in a neighboring town and were coming to mine next (western mass). I agree with them, but I'm not sure what protesting is going to accomplish. State lawmakers don't live here. People aren't going to change their minds on this over a sign. I'm just a little confused.

It's like trying to get the ambulatory alzheimers residents into the dining room at meal times!!

Formerly Barrow. And when I was in Shishmaref, they'd tell us stories of the time before calenders, when the elders just knew when the first day would be. Yeah, because the day before the first day, you can almost see the sun.

This is absolutely nonsense. It was the logic men in power used to keep their power.

Wait, was that not obvious? Is that why people are down voting? I don't believe this. No one with a link of sense believes this.

Pain in childbirth was God's punishment to women for eve's sin. If that lady in the woods tries to make childbirth easier for women, it is because she is against God and must be burned as a heretic.

Mu grandmother's cremation, with her coming home in a cardboard box like these, was $2500 last week. No funeral, no viewing, no autopsy, just picking her up, the cremation, and a box. $2500.

My husband's mother will die soon, and the family will scrape together the money. If it was just his brother, he'd have to leave her in the hands of thr state because he doesn't have $100, let alone 2 grand.

You can put them with chickens and sheep, but not goats. The goats will tear up the structures. - according to my sheep and goat farming friend, and the farm near me with chickens.

Put a couple of tums in the bag. It helps.

I haven't been inside that one, but we drive past it when door dashing a lot. C&C in greenfield has stickers sometimes!

There was also a business card and a pamphlet on the arrest process.

I think the point was it wasn't impatiently. He gave them a "you have until I'm done" deadline. And then he kicked ass.

#7 When my grandmother's husband died in the war, she had to move back in with her parents, because she lost her military housing. When her 2nd husband went out for a pack of smokes and never came back, she had to move back in with her parents, because her landlord wouldn't rent to a single woman, and she didn't have access to the bank accounts she contributed to. When my grandfather built her a house in 1965, she demanded that he put her name on the title too, so she had security if he ran too.

Sorry for the confusion. Tallow and beeswax and essential oil makes my lip balm. Tallow and olive oil and Shea butter makes my beard balm. Tallow and beeswax and lye and essential oil makes my bar soap.

I use tallow to make this skin cream, lip balm with beeswax, beard balm with Shea butter, bar soap, and laundry soap. It's good stuff, and since the farmer used to throw it out, it's more environmentally friendly than a lot of other ingredients.

We did. I just looked it up and we can get a replacement bowl for $25-30. Sounds like a good first step.

It is so nice on the skin. We use it instead of massage oil. We keep some in the car when our hands get dry.

I'm starting to suspect that's why it was 50% off when we bought it last year. I can't get it to lock.

I don't care that she's a sex worker. I care that she's using her position to steal from the American people.

Of course, there's also the genderless: "Listen up, rat bastards."
