Mormons definitely deserve a lot of the bad rap they get, what with the overbearing patriarchal whatever they've got going. But they can usually be counted on to feed people.

Ah, didn't know that. Cool.

Lol. Brain be funny sometimes.

Felt the same way too. In fact I think there was a subreddit dedicated to something like "first line/sentence" and thus there should/must be a Community for it by now.

[–] Shootingstarrz17@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Yeah, I think so too. Can't remember the name either, it's been a while.

They can just sleep through the day at their woke school. /S

And no minorities in that picture.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (2 children)

That’s a nice start, but it needs to be free for all kids, like at least my state

[–] Crikeste@lemm.ee 12 points 6 days ago

Yeah, there no god damned reason K-12 lunch shouldn’t be free. Fucking bonkers to add another line item to people’s budgets. Especially now.
