We're still figuring out getting my parents and brother a permanent home and the costs are still outrageous. So any shares of the post are still greatly appreciated!

Me too! Always rooting for an underdog to roll up a newspaper and smack a rich team on the nose
the Mountain Goats@themountaingoats.bsky.social · last mo.one reason I almost always root for the underdog in global-stage tournaments is that when it gets to the finals and all the teams left are the ones with the millionaire players, the announcers are especially wretched about it. AND SO THESE TWO TEAMS* MEET, AS IT HAD TO BE stfu *of global stars

If we actually want to appreciate moms, we should be providing free childcare, healthcare, and guaranteed income for stay-at-home parents to put more money in families’ pockets and ensure no SAHP is reliant on a partner for their economic security. Idk I think that’s better than 15% off a vacuum.
