Most of it, specifically the not being strictly “Christian” anymore and the being queer/nonbinary.

I remember when Coca Cola had a coffee flavor thing going on, I quite enjoyed that. Yes, I realize it sounds gross, but it was surprisingly refreshing.

Ooh, I once mixed Captain Morgan Coconut Rum with pineapple Fanta and the result was quite refreshing!

Grape soda and chocolate ice cream float.

I was homeschooled until age 15, then I was placed with a Christian homeschooling group that met in an elderly woman’s home. Now, at 24, I’m still working toward earning my GED.

While I accept that there may be situations where homeschooling is necessary, I believe it should be heavily regulated. Ideally, a private school would be a much better option.

I was more or less a social outcast, and I got bullied by other students. We eventually moved to a setup where schooling took place in a rented church hall when things truly hit the fan. The head “teacher’s” secretary’s son once accosted me in the bathroom. When I reported it, I was reprimanded and threatened with bad grades.

It was a creationist program using PACE—Packets of Accelerated Christian Education—with the Bible as its core curriculum. We did eventually get a new Physics teacher who would occasionally try to sprinkle in tidbits of common sense, which was nice.

All in all, it was a total waste. Who would’ve thought that telling a kid they’re going to burn in Hell for not understanding a math problem would mess them up?

TL;DR: Homeschooling isn’t a solution.

Just bought one of these today, glad to know I’m not totally screwed. It’s a nice little phone for the money, kind of a downgrade coming from a OnePlus Nord N30 where the screen came unglued from the case.

Yes, I did. https://lemmy.ml/c/Episcopalian

it’s done!

I wish more people used Loops, I think the idea of federated TikTok not bound by bullshit is a great idea!

Ouch. I had a sciatica flare up when I got up to use the bathroom one night, ended up falling backwards and putting a hole in the wall…

Oh, wow, that’s such a neat concept! Kinda wish I had this type of stuff when I was younger, would’ve been so freaking cool!

Ouch. I twisted in bed last year and somehow made it so I was stuck in bed for three days. Fuck, it hurt so bad!

Oh, good Lord. Some people are just too damn jittery.

This connect deserves a ⭐, just because 😊

I’m ChristoPagan, does that count?

There’s also a chance I’ll add a community on Matrix or similar if people are interested. Honestly, I just wanted to contribute something, and try to do something better than what Reddit had to offer. (Which was a whole load in and of itself)

Oh, thank you, I fixed it!

Well that’s horrifying…

They were supposed to open up the little hamster to watch his tiny heart beat inside its cracked ribcage.

Uh, I’m sorry, what?

You, Sir/Madam, should be awarded a Grammy for this stunning story.
