I don't care who you are, or what reason you have, if I bring you money to buy a cake and you don't want to sell me a cake, I'm just going to punch you in your face.

Thanks @Yorick!

Personally, I think refusing to serve anyone based on their political/ideological/whatever beliefs is in poor taste and not good business sense, BUT it’s the right of the business to serve whomever they want, within reason.

Legally, you cannot deny service to someone because of his or her race, color, religion, national origin or disability. Idk about other states but I’m pretty sure gay people are not a protected group in VA.

PS @soco you know I’m liberal but my boss has several MAGA hats and I swear he’s moderate and actually a really nice person. I promise all Trump supporters are not crazy racists.

My oldest turned 18 recently.

It sounds to me like you’ve unofficially adopted this girl @PepperJ and I think, based on what you’ve said, that you are doing the right thing.

Am I asking a question?

Wow, good for him! That’s a tough conversation to have at any age and you should be very proud of your son for stepping up and doing it.

Have you read the TIME article about millennials and depression?

@BA1 I’m going to have to unpack that reply later today, it’s a really long one.

@PepperJ any thoughts?

PS I didn’t realize this article might be controversial

After nearly 20 years, 4 kids, and TONS of frustration on my part, my husband has said that we should divorce.

Yeah definitely needs a job, it helps that it’s summer break. What about foster care though? Would she qualify for the system? Or is she almost too old?
