"So... I am the meanest mom ever... Like... Ever.
Took the kids to Dairy Queen after dinner. They ordered their dessert choices and we waited about 5 minutes for them to call out our number. The young lady (maybe 17) handed each child their ice cream. Not one looked her in the eye. Not one said thank you. Not to her, not to me... So I waited. I counted to 10 in my head as they dug into their ice cream and the young lady just looked at me (probably because she thought I was hearing voices) and I watched as my children strolled out the door. I followed them outside where I calmly collected their ice creams and my kids watched in horror as I deposited them into the nearby garbage can. All 3 launched into mass hysteria. I waited. Quiet. Calm. When they realized I had something to say, they quieted down.
I explained that one day, if they were lucky, they would work a job like that young lady. And I would hope that people would see them. Really see them. Look them in the eye and say thank you. We are too old at 8/7/5 to move through our days without exercising manners and honestly basic human decency.
So today, I am the meanest mom in the world."

🇵🇭Alex Eala is a WTA Champion! 🇵🇭
What a night in Guadalajara! After dropping the first set, Alex roared back with all her ❤️ to defeat Udvardy and claim her first WTA singles title! 🏆
She’s now the first Filipino—man or woman—to win a WTA singles 🏆. Goosebumps. Pure pride 🥹
@rnadalacademy@WTAGuadalajara WTA 125k doesn't count as a wta title. It counts as a challenger equivalent. Wta title starts from 250.
No wta main tour tournament will hold at the same time a slam is holding
Moroccan women in Spain complain about free food: "Only macaroni and this stuff they give us in Caritas, I have three children to feed, it's been like this for four years!" What do you think?
Do you live on a residential street with no parking signage? You can now park anywhere on your block for more than 3 hrs without issue.
This replaces the old rule where you could only park for more than 3 hrs between 8 am-6 pm if you were in a spot abutting your residence.

@Autovaluator@CityofVancouver Why can't people stop parking in front of homeowners' houses when they have parking spot in front of their own/rented house? It's annoying and will surely create trouble with this rule change!

Vancouver is an elitist hellhole full of yuppies who are completely ignorant to anything happening outside their algorithmic bubbles but simultaneously believe themselves to be more enlightened and virtuous than the rest of the world. I lived there for 40 years before bailing, which is frankly the best decision I ever made. (Watch my full conversation with @JasonBajadax.com/jasonbajada/st…)
