spool's daughter is far more concerned about joining the Altar Guild at the local Episcopal Church when she gets up North than she is about politics. Plus *braces for spool to explode* she's crazy about this guy who lives in Australia and he's a proper hippy, though I do understand that he bathes regularly and has a job.
Wait, how can he be a proper hippie if he buys into capitalism and western standards of cleanliness?
He worships nature *shrug* and lives with his parents even though he's 21...though he's actually taking care of them since they're older, and...
The whole American idea of kids needing to be out on their own by a certain age is deeply fucked up imho

I roasted the two hatch chilies I had left in the fridge today. Made myself burrito fixings with them and some cube steak. Also beans and some rice which I made up Chipotle style with cilantro, lime and salt.
Those were not mild chilies. I would say mediums. Burned like hell for about 5 minutes.
They were wonderful.
And I have more than enough for a big burrito bowl for lunch tomorrow.
I harvested chilis from the garden today. Very hot. Maybe I'll grind them up into some tacos.
Tacos were my original plan or at least taco style meat.
But burritos were on hand and thus it became burrito night.
A reasonable decision in an unreasonable era.

The worst thing I have had is my mum believing the moon landings were faked. She isn't super insistent or nutty about it. She apparently just has a hard time believing we achieved space travel so soon after inventing powered flight.

Most of the world doesn't move out till they are getting married. Especially not women.
Almost all the women I dated in Japan lived with their folks and they had full time jobs making good money and so on.

In short, he was a walking amalgam of Fox News content. While he clearly had underlying problems and the paranoid fantasies of the right were merely filling in the content for his delusions I honestly think that he is very close to the end result of someone, no matter how neurotypical, listening to Fox News and talk radio from Glenn Beck and his ilk every day for years on end.

if my kids haven't mastered the 4 components of manhood (swiftness, force, strength, mysteriousness) by the time they are 18 I will be forced to enroll them in the army or just abort the failed experiment and start over

Neil Degrasse Tyson is talking about how natural selection caused eyes to come about, and my mom is randomly dispensing comments
"Bullshit"
"Of course not, this guy's an idiot, who is he?"
"THEN WHY DO FISH STILL EXIST"
it's adorable
I think this would cause me physical pain.
I'm calmly answering her questions
like, she's an intelligent woman but she clearly was never actually taught how natural selection works
For a minute there I was afraid she fell into the Fox News Creationist Collective.
well up until relatively recently she was a hardcore religious right fox newser
I've slowly indoctrinated her with liberal concepts (well I mean, the right wing did that all on its own, but her granddaughter getting cancer treatment on Obamacare punted her over to the left fully because she's internalized every lie about it as being a direct attack on her blood's life)
Now I'm trying to work on the religious part of it, or at least, make her less convinced that atheists "just hate god"

If you two need to talk to someone about this boy who is invariably going to be filling your daughter's head with all sorts of crazy ideas
No helping spool's arguments in this! I think the guy is a nice kid, I've spoken with him, and he's coming to visit in January.
Which reminds me, anyone want to help me get a truckload of ductape to hold spool to his chair while the Aussie is here?
I think in the olden days when a suitor would come to visit the parents would tie them up in individual burlap bags such that everything below the neck was inaccessible to the other party
you should look into that

But really the idea of the nuclear family is post WWII intervention. Before that we tended to have folks living with extended family and such. Te nuclear style family was more the exception even into the 1940's.

I ruined tattoos for our kids...and strange colored hair. I got my first tat at age 37 while I had blue hair. My kids rebel by being epicly normal.

Speaking of people living with their parents too long, I am slightly bummed because it hit me that even if I nail my interview, it's still for an unpaid internship, meaning i'll still need to live in my mom's basement for a while.
I don't know if i'm ready to move out yet, but I feel like I should at least try. in a few years at age 30.

It seems mistaken to blame Fox News for creating the white middle class fear of everyone else.
I can understand being skilled at painting. It's a process I can wrap my mind around. But sculpting is goddamn black magic.

I'm not sure it'll help with hippy shit like, "but why do we need things man" and "you can't own property" or anything related to gluten free diets
