Why do women think men coming out of prison are grown adults with jobs and who want marriage immediately?

The expectations of these women to have ready made adult men who want jobs and a wedding The day these men come out of prison is delusional. Some of these guys are 23 with no real jobs ever. Some are 35 with no real relationships ever and have lived with their moms since birth. Why are these women delusional ?

RFK JR: Right now, the highest cancer rate in the world is in Iowa. Farmers understand the connection between spraying toxic chemicals on their crops and their own personal health

RFK JR: Right now, the highest cancer rate in the world is in Iowa. Farmers understand the connection between spraying toxic chemicals on their crops and their own personal health.

From me as a person who lived in Iowa in the 90s : the whole society is several kinds of toxic mess. Mostly eating and drinking contaminated food and water. but significantly clinging to white patriarchy that says white farmers who have no education other than being farmers know best. A significant amount of violence and drug use starts at home with fathers, brothers, moms who abuse children ( my mom Iowan born baby boomer was this victim). The culture is toxic.

Melanated Appreciation Tuesday - Ming-Na Wen

I love it when melanated talent start out on soap operas and stay with them, but I'm also happy when they branch out and find success on other stages! Launching from "As the World Turns", Ms. Wen went on to "The Joy Luck Club", ER, and Mulan, to name a few. Let's give it up for Ming-Na Wen!

Hoarding or extremely anal clean ?

Was your mom a hoarder or extremely ocd anal clean? Makes sense to me that since regulation is the problem it could go either way home care wise.

My mom was literally so clean she would come after me as I was drinking a drink and take it and throw it away , half full. She likes to scrub the kitchen floor on her hands and knees ( i don't ). She would also clean just seething with anger that I was never so enthused about mopping that I was not down there on the floor with her.

When I saw the " No more wire hangers " scene in Mommy Dearest , it reminded me of my mom. She was not screaming at me while cleaning though just silently cleaning with rage.

Interfering with the children's reunion with incarcerated parents ?

Several examples of this : Justine, Scott , Brittany was the incarcerated ; why are adults getting in the way of the children seeing their parents and re-establishing a relationship with them first ? like give it a few days or a week before they swoop in to rescue . Stan could have just let the Blonde lady in the wig parent for a while and see how that goes.

Why would different 2 bedrooms cost two different prices ?

I'm in Massachusetts and thinking of moving to New Mexico so I'm not familiar with NM apartment pricing. Why would these 2 bedrooms cost such different prices ? all with the same square footage.

Does the 2nd floor apartment cost more ? is is a lot safer to live on the 2nd or 3rd floor ? like worth $300 more ? I'm a single woman fyi. I want safety

I just started the series and something keeps bugging me...

I want to know, HOW IN THE WORLD AM I SUPPOSED TO BELIVE SHE IS FAT?? All I hear is her saying how fat she is, the other characters saying she is fat... this woman is not fat. They picked the wrong actress for this roll to make me believe she is fat... My personal opinion is Melissa McCarthy from the Mike and Molly days would have worked better. It bugs me how they will have her interact with other "fat" women in the show and they are undeniably larger than her and it is jarring in that context.

I have lost 60 pounds and am considered "skinny" by social standards and I wish I could have a figure like Katy Mixon. 😭

Melissa Nelson worked as a dental assistant for 10 years before being fired because her boss said he found her "irresistible." He told her that if his pants bulged, it was her fault. Nelson sued for discrimination, but the Iowa Supreme Court ruled in his favor.

Iowa Cancer Cause :

Iowa’s cancer crisis is also a chemistry story.

Nitrates from fertilizer and manure move through soil, rivers, and drinking water.

Concentration matters. Exposure matters. Monitoring matters.

Clean water is a chemical condition, not a political slogan.

James Baldwin once said that "to be a Negro in this country and to be relatively conscious is to be in a state of rage almost all of the time" because of a simple truth: America had and still has tens of millions of terrible and TRULY EVIL human beings who don't want to co-exist with us peacefully.
