You're in hell. You're staying with one of those families that seemingly never eats. They skip breakfast. Lunch rolls around and everyone says, “I'm not really hungry.” There are no snacks anywhere. Then they don't eat dinner until like 8PM.
Today, we remember a legend.
On this day in history, Harambe would have celebrated another birthday. An icon that became part of internet history, American culture, and an entire generation’s timeline.
Tomorrow marks 10 years since we lost him. Ten years since the moment the world stopped scrolling and collectively mourned something bigger than a meme.
He became a symbol of loyalty, strength, chaos, unity, and the strange beauty of the internet bringing millions of people together for one cause: never forgetting Harambe.
Everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news. And somehow, a decade later, his legacy still lives on.
Gone, but never forgotten.
Rest easy to a true patriot. 🕊️🇺🇸

Forever in our hearts.
Yoto player is a fantastic invention. We have them for our kids. We were thinking about giving them tape players to listen to stuff but then we discovered the Yoto and it achieves the same thing in a more modern way.
They have great stories, classics, and geography, science and stuff like that too. Our kids honestly learn a lot of great stuff from them.
A great alternative to screens on long trips etc.. Listening to something is different than watching. I think it's because when listening we still have to use our imagination in some way. Like listening to a book, or a radio broadcast (in the old days) etc... I think there is a little more going on in our brain.
Yoto is good.
@EricCMeadows The YSA scene in MKE is rough. Twelve years ago it was ok, but my sister just moved from there and things were dismal at best. Minimal amount spent on activities, low energy leadership, etc.
I am all for building Zion where you are, but sometimes YSA wards need a bigger budget
everyone wants a village, but no one wants to be a villager
> drive your friends to the airport
> go to their party even when you're tired
> stop cancelling last minute
> host at your place
> support the wins & losses
it's worth every ounce of effort
My best tip for anyone trying to get back into reading is to remember that you can read books to avoid other responsibilities in your life, and it can become a vice if you play your cards right.
I try not to give parenting advice, but I will say this: People often say they want to own a home before having a baby. This does not matter at all. The only thing that matters is if you have a washer/dryer
@EricCMeadows People should move out of Utah more--there's fun to be had! That being said, I grew up in MKE & my home ward is a branch these days. It feels more economic than anything. However, we've lived in TUS, DFW, CHO, & now NWA and have found pockets of wards that are thriving.
and to think we only got this beautiful scene because rob reiner met his future wife during when harry met sally’s production and fell so in love that he changed the ending so harry and sally could end up together too. rip rob reiner and his wife michele :
To recap:
• HBO Max doesn't renew deal with Sesame Street

Move to Texas and get a job as a brisket jockey at your local Buc-ee’s. Slice that meat thin enough and you’ll be promoted to brisket jockey supervisor in no time. Buy a cookie cutter house in the new development 30 mins away. You might even meet a nice girl who works as a cashier at your local Whataburger. It could all be so simple, anon.
