Rabbit hole

OK, so out of no where topic. Not REALLY though because I typed this all up as a reply to someone on Reddit. Let me explain the Rabbit hole:

I won’t bother with the Reddit post because it wasn’t even about Christianity, it was about a Muslim chick not wanting music at her baby shower. And then in the comments there was shit about religious people cherry picking what they believe (because some Muslims listen to music and some don’t). So, naturally, Christians got brought up — specifically by a guy with some trauma from his Christian dad who hates gay people. So then someone “explained” that some of the Old Testament laws are applicable and some are not. I think he used the terms “Moral” and “Cultic.” So then someone is like where, exactly, is that laid out? And I said Romans. Literally just that. Cause that’s where most people get that from. I just said “In Romans” — neither agreeing nor disagreeing just answering because the guy who initially said it refused to answer anything and told the guy to google. So THEN the guy asks me “Where in Romans?”

Ok, all caught up? Here’s my answer:

Oh you are asking the wrong person on that. I believe that the letters in the Bible were written with specific intent for their specific audience they were written to. They were written by men after Jesus. It’s not like Jesus pooped out the new testament.

The New Testament was put together over time with humans giving weight to what they thought was most important. Most people cite Paul’s letters to the Romans as laying out the law. But it’s all over Romans. A few examples:

~~~~~

Romans 13:
8 Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

~~~~~

Romans 7:
4 So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. 5 For when we were in the realm of the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death. 6 But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

~~~~~

Romans 14:
5 One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.

~~~~~

Now that in mind, I believe we are bound by what Jesus told us, not men. And that was to love God and to love one another. Paul tries to lay that out in Romans. He also mentions this in his letter to the Corinthians:

~~~~~

1 Corinthians 9
20 To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. 21 To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law.

~~~~~

The Old Testament is the old covenant(s – Adam, Noah, Moses) which Jesus released us from when he established the New Covenant. But Jesus also noted that this was not just free for all lawlessness:

~~~~~

Matthew 5
17 “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. 18 “For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 “Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”

~~~~~

Now NOTE what he said there. Anyone under the New Covenant who accepts Jesus’s sacrifice still gets into Heaven. That’ all you HAVE to do. THAT’S the requirement. But then he points out, those who do keep the laws will be called great.

I am a nondenominational Christian as I think all the denominations bicker over insignificant crap. Though I do fall into some sort of the non-Catholic’s as I agree with Martin Luther in the 1500’s when he told them they were full of shit. Like I’m with Luther on that.

I think if you asked Paul which is more important — following the letter of the old testament or behaving as Jesus would have behaved — he would go with the latter. And Jesus wasn’t hanging out with the Pharisees, he was with the sinners showing them love.

And there in that Corinthians I posted, Paul even says he himself changed the laws he followed according to who he was with to win them to Christ. Because the laws are not what is important. Winning people to Christ is what is important as he is the only way to Heaven.

So I hate that so many people are driven from Christianity by a bunch of hypocritical Christians who “cherry pick” like this guys says. BECAUSE THEY’RE MISSING THE BIG IMPORTANT PART.

It’s not about all the little things you do and rules you follow. It’s not about the laws. The New Covenant does not require us to follow them. The New Covenant is for us to love and to do what is true in our spirit and heart. Like that part about the Sabbath — those who choose Sunday — awesome! Those who choose Saturday — awesome! Why are we telling each other the other is going to hell cause they picked a different day? They are following what God calls THEM to do. And both are following the rule of Love.

(Keeping in mind that love is not lawless — murder aint love, adultery aint love for your spouse)

In Matthew 7, Jesus is also quoted with the famous “Judge not lest you be judged.”

I firmly believe that we will be held to the highest standards we judged and held others to. And I personally, am a piece of shit. So I’m just gonna let God decide what is a sin and what is not a sin. I also don’t believe there are any unforgivable sins (again, I’m with Luther, the Catholics are wrong — don’t get me STARTED on suicide I will go OFF).

Now

OK, so that was the end of the post. And I think it was beyond the character limit because I couldn’t even post it. So I wanted to share HERE on my blog, because I think it really shines a light on what I personally believe. And it has come up in my life. Why do I curse? And I’ve already defended tattooing on here once.

And really when I read that Corinthians verse I was just like THAT’S ME!

I’ve tried to explain to people before. I am not a perfect Christian. I’m not holy and hoity. I curse and I am who I am. And because of this, I’m a lot more approachable. I could specifically name three individuals right now without much thought who asked me a lot of questions about Christianity on which they were curious but would not have been willing to ask… oh say.. my mother in law. And that’s why I truly believe in my heart, that I am perfectly fine. Because God uses me anyway.

It’s like with mental health. I want you to know that I have issues and it’s OK to have issues! You can talk to me about it. I’ll tell you everything. (Speaking of, I had to RUN from work today due to impending mental breakdown due to anxiety attack — like I emailed my boss, set up my OOO replies, and speed walked to my car cause aint no one here close enough to see me crying and breaking down).

It’s like how I tell people, psychopathy is a scale. And we actually do need psychopaths. They’re not all murders. Most CEOs are psychopaths.

God needs ALL TYPES of Christians. And yes, that include the ones like me who curse and talk raunchy.

And we don’t even have to discuss it cause the “Old Laws” are moot. We have a New Covenant! With Jesus — and Jesus is fucking awesome! I talk to him every night! And sometimes while I’m driving. And I remind him a lot that I fully expect to see my fucking cat when I get there. No seriously, I do say that in my prayers. I might be one of those lower levels in heaven, but I better have my damn cat.

Sorry, I got distracted. Jesus is awesome! God was like these fucking morons can’t follow a rule to save their damn lives. And THAT’S why Jesus came and fulfilled the Old Covenant with Moses and made the New Covenant that has like two rules. Love God. Love each other. AND YALL CANT EVEN GET THAT RIGHT.

First, I don’t believe being gay is a sin. I just don’t. Sue me. God can decide what is a sin. But okay, so you’re argument might be “but what if it IS — love the sinner hate the sin” some bullshit like that. Ok well here’s my reply.

Jesus said to love one another as I have loved you. He was talking to the Apostles. Read that again. HE WAS TALKING TO THE APOSTLES. Who were they? No, don’t name them. Name one of them — Judas. Uhuh. And what did Judas do? He fucking sold Jesus out and got him hung up and crucified. And that is a gruesome death — and they like overdid it with Jesus too. Normally they’d break your legs to let you suffocate so you’d die faster and they didn’t do that for Jesus. That’s why they finally just stabbed him out of pity. Shit, I’m distracted again.

Judas.

Jesus knew he’d do it. He told them one of them would sell him out. He full on KNEW Judas was a bastard. And he treated him no different than he treated any of his other apostles. He didn’t even TELL the other apostles that Judas was a bastard. And they begged him to tell them who it was. He treated them all with love equally.

So yeah, kick out your child for being gay and call yourself a Christian. That’s TOTALLY what Jesus would have done.

Anyway. I’m done. Hope that was helpful to someone one day.

TikTok’s Savior. Nothing is ever new.

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on TikTok’s Savior. Nothing is ever new.

Trump is the the savior of TikTok! All praise Trump! The man who first suggested the ban himself when he was in office previously. Biden’s administration told them they didn’t have to shut down yet and there would be no penalties yet. TikTok said promises weren’t enough. Two days before Inauguration they go dark with a message about working with Trump. Day before the Inauguration, Trump’s promises are good enough to come back online. It’s all a stunt. There is nothing new under the sun.

From the Roman satirical poet Juvenal (c. 100 AD):

“Already long ago, from when we sold our vote to no man, the People have abdicated our duties; for the People who once upon a time handed out military command, high civil office, legions — everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just two things: bread and circuses.”

Two impeachments, 30+ felonies. Give them TikTok and watch them dance.

Errands! Let’s fill up the car!

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Errands! Let’s fill up the car!

Today, I acquired the things. I did many errands. I took off work early to go to the Psychiatrist. Then, Garvins was on that side of town so I stopped in for Hay. Then Home Depot… Then Publix to drop off my prescription refills. Listen, it was a lot. So then I napped and went to pick up the refills.

I’m working on my compost bins. I’m 90% done with Phase 1 (Yes, I will be posting). Phase 1 is just getting all the sides up. They are up, but the back three panels don’t have their metal mesh attached. So I went ahead and got stuff for Phase 2 and a bale of hay to get my compost started (hay is “browns”). Phase 2 will be the fronts. Then Phase 3 will be the Lid. So Qubie was loaded up.

Side note: Garvin’s Feed and Seed had a black cat in the store that was a sweetheart! She came up to me for attention while I was looking around. She demanded pets. She even let me pick her up and I explored all of the store carrying her around and petting her while she purred. I only put her down when it was time to check out.

Hopefully nothing is living in that bale of hay cause it’s living in my car now.

Then on to Home Depot. I got a circular saw! Yes, I’m just gonna start buying tools so I can stop begging everyone for their tools. I will slowly build up a tool collection. The one with a storage bag was $40 more. So I didn’t get that one. But a toolbox that would fit it was $50. So Sterilite steps up to the plate! Look at this shit! And since it’s clear, I can tape the front of the sales box to it and it will be so clear what’s in there. I’m so smart. S-M-R-T.

Time to go home? Nay. We have to drop off our refills from the doctor cause Mrs C needs her crazy pills. Perimenopause is kicking my ass so hard so I need them more than ever. So to Publix!

Shit, I guess this goes in the front now. Qubie is carrying her weight.

Lastly, I leave you with this. Check out these fungus things growing outside of my psychiatrists office. I bet some of you would eat this shit. Nasty. BLUE CHEESE IS LITERALLY JUST MOLDY CHEESE.

Saturday Round-Up

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Saturday Round-Up

Let’s start this post like I started my day. With Louie’s disapproving look.

He just sat like this and stared at us while we chatted in bed before getting up. This was not the pose of him being disrupted or in movement. He’s chillin’ and appauled. He hates when I don’t get up right away. Which is always.

He doesn’t want pets — no. In fact, if I pet him, he will move further away. He wants me to get up. I need to put food in his bowl that he’s not gonna eat right now cause he’s too spoiled with his evening half a can of wet food. Then we have to go outside. He might have to come in early to poop. Otherwise, he want’s to nom some grass and barf. Then I can do my thing while he does his thing in the vicinity. As long as I’m not in bed.

Currently I’m on the laptop on the couch and he’s like just sleeping in the middle of the carpet over there. This is why he wants me out of bed.

I know everyone says get him a friend. But like, I don’t think he’d like a friend at this point. He’s a ham and demands to be the center of attention. Like if you come over to visit my house, he wants to be loved. You’re his new best friend. Because everyone must worship his soft belly. But if you visit too much, or live here, he’ll be over somewhere about 10 feet away. Another cat would probably bother him. And take away the valuable spotlight. Also, he wouldn’t be getting that expensive ass food if I had two cats. I can’t afford to worship two cats. I can lavish one cat.

Look at this adorable acorn I found!

Isn’t it cute and tiny? I haven’t found a random acorn in ages. I loved finding these when I was little. I’m gonna plant it by the giant tree stump in our front yard.

Halloween is the DEVIL

Facebook advertised these super religious trunk-or-treat decorations to me. “Ain’t no ghost but the HOLY GHOST!” That ghost one cracks me up. But hey, at least these people want to still let the kids have fun in costumes and get candy. So props. Like, I guess getting candy from strangers cars instead of houses is less Satanesque.

After typing that sentence though, isn’t this the PERFECT trap? Like a venus fly trap? Like “hey kids — we have candy — it’s Halloween, we’re just religious. Here take a full sized candy ba… **SHOVES KID IN AND CLOSES THE HATCH**

Yall don’t read that if you’re the scared that Halloween will kill your children type. Come on, at least give them this.

And if you’re the type of mom I’d be — give them this until sundown when they can hit up the neighborhoods. That’s right, rake it in, my little pumpkin. Let’s go to the rich neighborhood next. Of course you don’t have to go to school tomorrow. You’re probably gonna be barfing because you ate half that shit. Fuck what your teacher says. THIS IS HALLOWEEN, DAMMIT. It’s one goddamn day. Oh hey, do you need me to tape that back on your costume? Come here, I’ve got tape and we can plug in the glue gun if we need to. I’ve got some trim we can cover that up with. Is my hat on straight? Awesome. Yeah, I know — dads lame. Next year we’ll have to blackmail him. Maybe we could all be Marvel characters! I got him to be Tony Stark once. You gotta start working him in like August.

And here’s my Monstera!

I got it a fucking grade A grow light handing from the second floor. It’s very happy. It’s my favorite. Don’t tell the others. Like the prayer plant is my second favorite. But of course I love you too, my sweet jungle cacti! String of Bananas, we’re working on our relationship. I know, you’re doing fucking amazing. But like, you need something on top. I might get you like a topiary ball frame or something to wrap around before you trail down. I’m working on it.

DEADPOOL! Deadpool deadpool DEADPOOL!

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on DEADPOOL! Deadpool deadpool DEADPOOL!

Are you aware that Deadpool 3 AKA Deadpool and Wolverine comes out Thursday? TWO DAYS FROM NOW. Did you know?

So tonight, I’m watching Deadpool. Tomorrow, I will watch Deadpool 2. And you’re damn fucking straight I already have our Thursday tickets. I bought them this weekend. DEADPOOL DATE! Yep, my husbands going to see Deadpool with me!

Let’s Fucking Go.

No seriously, I’m fucking JAZZED. Look at this adorable Deadpool Lego mini figure I got this weekend at Nerdy Noel. I have him sitting on my monitor like he was sitting on the highway in the first movie. See his little legs are even swinging:

And I didn’t know this until after I bought it and had it at home — BUT HIS MASK COMES OFF! His face is all fucked up and everything:

I’m kicking myself for not getting all three Deadpools they had and I don’t know the booths name to contact them. They had Bob Ross Deadpool and also Deadpool in the X-Men in Training shirt from the second movie.

Oh and I had to replace my refrigerator notepad. I had the “Note from Jack” pad but it got lost in moving. Somehow I have the BACK of the notepad, but none of the paper. So I got a yellow one with gold foil that says “Let’s Fucking Go” off of Etsy. Don’t yall act like you put that pad on yellow on accident. Uhuh.

DEADPOOL! I gotta go get dinner and then me and Louie are watching Deadpool 1. And just because I’m seeing it Thursday doesn’t mean I won’t go see it with you. You going another night? I’m down. Let’s Fucking Go. I already know I’m going to be obsessed with it.

Bring back the stocks?

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Bring back the stocks?

Today I learned the difference in stocks and pillory thanks to Reddit!

Stocks vs Pillory WITH PICTURES:

STOCKS

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stocks

PILLORY

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillory

Why did we get rid of stocks?

I always thought “stocks” referred to the pillory! I didn’t even know the actual stocks was a thing!

So I get that the pillory is kinda harsh cause they can’t sit and all, but why did we get rid of stocks? I’m 100% seriously asking this question.

You just sit there with your feet bound for people to judge you. As long as someone’s making sure the people in the stocks are safe, it doesn’t look too bad, honestly. Set some up on courthouse square. Most of the pictures even have multiple stocks in a row. So you’re sitting there WITH someone to chat with who’s in the same predicament.

This is way cheaper than a jail cell for like sobering people up or just minor offenses where you get community service or no time. Or for people let off with a fine. Like politicians. One hour in the stocks for the Instagram.

Seriously, this sounds like how I always had to stand against the wall in the back of the cafeteria for talking too much. Like, most days my ass was standing in the back of the cafeteria. Same thing. I was heavily bullied in school, but standing in the back of the cafeteria never particularly bothered me. Way better than detention. I’d get told to stop talking while I was standing there.

Men be living on easy mode

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Men be living on easy mode

Guys be living on easy mode and don’t even know it. I know that’s not a grand revelation. Duh. We all know this. But it comes down to the smallest things.

My house has been a construction zone for a month. Workers in and out most days. My cat lives at my friends house. That mess is still on going but the end is in sight. So why am I saying this? I gotta put on a bra.

Every fucking day. I’m working from home but if I wanna go get a drink from the garage, I gotta put on a bra because there’s strangers in my house. Does my husband have to do this? No. He can roll out of bed and go to the grocery store. Can any woman do that? NO.

You might be telling yourself that I don’t have to wear a bra. Technically true — but I’m 41 and fat and my nipples always poke through everything. And I don’t like showy nipples. So just to leave my bedroom, I gotta put on a bra. Men don’t have to do any of that shit.

Thank you for listening.

Presidential Election Candidates

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Presidential Election Candidates

Biden is 81 and Trump is 78. Do you think either one of them could navigate a self checkout? I propose a test:

  1. Send them to Walmart with a list of 5 regular grocery items.
  2. Have them estimate the total cost of their transaction.
  3. They have to get to Walmart ALONE. I understand that the secret service may have to tag along, but they are to offer no assistance. They have to locate and drive to Walmart alone.
  4. They shop alone for their items.
  5. They go through the self checkout. And yeah, they wait their ass in line. Maybe put makeup on to disguise them.
  6. Then they must navigate and drive back to the starting place.
  7. Compare expected cost vs actual cost for fun.

Think either one could do it in a reasonable amount of time without visibility struggling at any part? And they’re supposed to represent ALL OF US.

I wonder if they could even pump gas and pay at the pump.

Do you think they know about tap-to-pay?

Most Americans can’t even dream of when they’ll finally be able to retire. What’s retirement age now? 67. If you wanna retire, you gotta work and grind for 47 years. And that’s assuming you save up to be able to retire at all, and don’t start working before age 20. I started working at 15.

These out-of-touch motherfuckers could have retired 13 years ago. Most people don’t even live long enough to reach their age.

THEY HAVE OUTLIVED THE AVERAGE AMERICAN MALE LIFESPAN (76 years).

And that’s the current male life span. Trump (the younger of the two) was born in 1946. The average American male life span when he was born was 64. He’s 78.

He turned 16 in 1957.

  • Gasoline (not 10% ethanol bullshit, either) was 28 CENTS a gallon.
  • TVs were black and white.
  • Leave it to Beaver hadn’t even PREMIERED YET.

He turned 21 in 1967. THE PRIME OF HIS LIFE.

  • Gas was 33 cents a gallon.
  • Minimum wage was $1.40 per hour
  • PBS was starting.
  • The handheld calculator was INVENTED.

Biden is even older.

We’re so fucked.

Why isn’t there a maximum age for this shit? They shouldn’t even be allowed to drive at that age (unless they pass a driving test every year).

UPDATE!

What if we put them on The Price is Right!?

Netflix’s Polar

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Netflix’s Polar

It’s my fake Friday. I took a long ass nap. I’m gonna make a frozen Quest pizza and stay up super late.

Some background: I decided to do another booknook. I ordered a generic “Rose Detective Agency.” One that is clearly knocking off Sherlock. The address is 210B Rose Street. Well, that can’t stand. Clearly I’ll have to fix the address and street sign. So if I’m doing that… I might as well do some other customizations… So this led me down a Sherlock (BBC, Benedict Cumberbatch) hole. I’ve decided I’ve just got to rewatch the show for inspiration. I was going to do it this weekend.

So I find myself up late with time to kill. I’ll start my Sherlock binge early! So I pull up Netflix as I assume it’s on there. And I see this:

Interesting, maybe I’ll add it to my watch list. The description: “John Wick meets The Equalizer.” John Wick kinda already was the Equalizer over the dog, but show me more. I watched the trailer.

Well, fuck. Now I’m waiting on my pizza to be done so I can start my movie. It’s totally Mads Mikkelsen as an over-the-top John Wick. It won’t be as good, but it looks like a damn good ride. I’m down.

REVIEW:

It takes over an hour before they even inspire the guy to do any vengeance. In that hour there’s a LOT of gratuitous sex. We’re talking a LOT. Even boobs against a window at one point. The characters are just insanely over the top caricatures of villains. I’ve paused here at the 1 hour and 21 minute mark and it’s FINALLY about to get good. With only 36 minutes left — at least 6 of which is probably credits.

To even compare this to John Wick is just insulting to everyone. I feel like this movie is insulting to Mads Mikkelsen’s talent, even. I mean fuck. It better be a damn good 30 minutes.

***SPOILERS AFTER THIS POINT***

Not that he should be alive at this point, having been tortured for three days and I don’t think they gave him water to drink during any of that and he’s bleeding like a lot — for three days. So very implausible — but he’s finally about to escape and do some killing. Here we go.

So he’s escaping and kicking ass. Only the occasional stop to pant to show he’s struggling. He’s even been shot in the leg by this point. He’s missing an eye — part of the 3 days of being tortured and bleeding. Like maybe if they had only tortured and starved and dehydrated him for one day, I’d give it to you. I mean give me SOMETHING to buy here. But he was literally chained up the whole time. They made a point to show him still chained on the floor before and after each torture — next to a floor drain — for the blood, of course. So like, he hasn’t even been able to go shit or anything. Much less get a drink of water. This is stupid.

And surprising left filed twist ending plus a set up for a second movie.

THUMBS DOWN. You suck, Netflix. I should have watched Sherlock.

I can’t fucking believe you DARED to compare this to John Wick. Fuck.

Weekend in Review

Posted on | by cursingcats.com | Leave a Comment on Weekend in Review

This weekend, I made Lumalee!

The mouth is pretty jacked up, so ill probably work on that. Also, I feel like the green should have started sooner. Did I do an extra blue row or something? And how did I jack up one leg so badly? I did not notice that at all while I was making it. There are parts of it I am unhappy with, but I think it’s cute. I enjoyed making it. It was very much trust the process because it look JACKED-THE-FUCK-UP until I stuffed it. I should have taken a picture.

I really liked how the designer did the top to split it off into two points — very clever IMO. There are changes I would make if I did it again, but I won’t be doing it again. Super glad I bought an extra skein of blue because I sure did need it. I want to do a red mushroom, but I think responsibly, I should do Mario first so I know I have enough red for him first.

The Christmas blanket saga continues. But I’m honestly thinking of putting it aside. It’s not a project I am enjoying at all. I hate the yarn. I have more amigurumis I want to do — but I also really want to do a sampler blanket in greys. I could pick a yarn I actually LIKE. And each rectangle will be a different stitch. I think I’ll pick like three shades of greys — like this kit on Amazon that I am not going to buy:

1) I’ve had to buy compression gloves because working the Christmas blanket has hurt my hand.

2) I’m not enjoying it. It’s a chore, not a fun hobby.

3) The sampler blanket would let me pick a yarn I enjoy working with and that isn’t so damn hard to work with!

4) I’d get to learn a lot of new stitches. And it would keep changing up and not being a slog because once I finish one rectangle, the next would be totally different.

So yeah, thinking of putting the Christmas blanket aside for more enjoyable projects.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also this weekend, I washed the cars! I meant to wash mine inside and out, but I only got the outside done. But I also did Husband’s car. And I put it off for so long that I was still washing at dusk and got to see BATS IN THE BATHOUSE!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I bought some of these camisoles at Duluth Trading. I’ve been living in them since. I would live in camisoles if I could. I get hot so easy. And if I’m cold, I can throw something on over it. But I can’t live in camisoles because I don’t like not wearing bras around people. I’m sorry, I’m an older generation and I don’t like my nipples showing. My boobs are awesome and do not need support — but I still have pointy nipples. Also, my mom was always braless at home growing up and it embarrassed me. Sorry mom. I wouldn’t have worn bras 24/7 either for my kids. Fuck that.

Anyway — these camisoles have the worthless “shelf bra” built in. BUT BUT BUT — with PADDED CUPS.

Holy fuck, it’s like I unlocked a new life reward. The camisole stays in place — no nip slips. and also NO POINTY NIPPLES.

Yall, they were on sale and I bought one of every color. And when the season changes, I’m gonna see if they have more colors and buy them too. You think I’m kidding? Husband is reading this thinking I spend too much money — honey, have you noticed me wearing that purple one, then the grey one, and now this teal one? Have you seen me wear anything else for like over a week? Do I have too many camisoles? Fuck yes. Burn all the others if you want to use that line of thinking. These are all I want now.

I can go out to the mailbox. My sister slept over and I didn’t have to put on a bra. I can answer the door if needed. No bras or robes required. I can live in my camisole now. It’s fucking amazing. BUY THIS SHIT (Clicky). 10 out of 10, 5 stars all the way.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EDIT: FUCK, How could I forget? I started my first ever seed babies!

It’s all lemongrass. Lemongrass is crazy expensive, I learned last year. SO I’m just seeding a fuckton of it. It keeps mosquitoes away. I’m also gonna try to grow pumpkins this year!
