“They had us in the first half I’m not gonna lie”
Dude for real. Seeing Utah and school lunches in the same sentence had me worried.
Richest country in the history of the planet, and we have “lunch debt” for kids in school.
Well yeah, how are we going to get rich if we aren’t taking money from 5 year olds?
And making them work to repay it!
We can’t bailout lunch kids, what about my meth addiction debt? Nobody helped me. BOoTsTrApS!
More like Pro-Life-Debts amiright?
Actually tho. Conservative politicians be pushing that pro-life shit cause of religion but also because they want to maintain their cheap labor force that they’ve sold the idea of “freedom” to
Maybe those 5 year olds should get a second job and skip the avocado toast.
They held my high school diploma for 6 months because I had $20 dollar deficit.
They never got the money because my dad threatened a lawsuit.
My school held someone’s diploma to the max legal limit (like 6 months) because they did a twirl when walking on stage to get the fake diploma case thing.
Many US schools are more oppressive than some other country’s prisons
Richest country… for now
Can’t wait for school lunch debt to become non dischargeable in bankruptcy
Just a reminder that the LDS Church has $206 Billion in the bank.
A church. $206 Billion.
Spaceships aren’t cheap.
Good thing it ends up in the hands of the Belters (at least in the TV show)
also in the books!
the expanse is probably the most faithful reproduction of a book series ever.
especially considering it’s like, what?, 5 books they made into the series?
it’s almost a 1:1 translation into a different medium, which is hella impressive!
they cut some stuff here and there (more and more as the series goes on, for obvious reasons) but seriously, damn near everything about the main story is there!
there’s really good reasons for the fans demanding more of it after Netflix stopped production
Neither is terraforming planets for every male member
They also own 2.7% of private land in Florida and 1 in every 550 acres of private land in the U.S.:
Also a reminder that “Mormon porn” is an incredibly popular genre on Pornhub.
Its funny because I dont understand Mormons enough to know why the videos are taboo. They always look like dream sequences for some reason.
Is it neither for Mormons nor by Mormons? That’s a strange kink
I’m 100% certain it is for Mormons, but I don’t know if it’s by Mormons or not. Based on my personal encounters with them, actual Mormon girls are way hotter than the girls in the porn.
Is that just the bubble ‘porn’ that went viral in the 2000’s?
The show American Primeval was the beginning, they showed how they ripped people/towns/indians apart for that land under government control by Brigham young. True or not, I’d believe it given their stake today.
Joseph Smith, the Jesus Christ of Mormonism, was killed by an angry mob who stormed a prison he was being held in to execute him for scamming them.
Yeah but they’ve got to save it for the apocalypse…for some reason.
Because Jesus said “thou who dost make the most money wins.”
I wonder if that’s why mitt Romney ran in 2012.
It makes me sad I wasn’t expecting this headline from Utah whatsoever when starting to read it but I’m glad it’s positive in the end
Utah is a little weird in that they aren’t so Mich maga as much as they are Mormon, they have progressive politics when it just so happens to suit the church’s needs
Sort of. Our leadership have been doing some incredibly sketchy things lately and are very buddy-buddy with Trump.
Yeah that’s a good point. Mormons are still weird to me but I’ve known some and they are pretty chill people for the most part and pretty rational about stuff. Much, much easier to hang around than fucking southern baptists and can even be fun. I smoke a lot of weed and they never partook but never cared so I always thought that was cool
Churches are frequently wayy more progressive than the State.
Not in America
Ever heard of the Civil Rights Movement? Perhaps a pastor named Martin Luther King Jr? Or Cornel West?
Have you heard of the westboro Baptist church? Or the evangelical Protestants?
I didn’t say always. I said frequently.
Same, literally a gasp then a sigh of relief as I read the headline
They’re playing the long game here.
1st remove fluoride from municipal water sources, kids start getting more cavities.
2nd give free lunches.
3rd kids stop eating their free lunches due to the pain of their cavities.
4th State government proclaims they’ve done such a tremendous job with the economy that kids aren’t eating and needing free meals anymore, so they are removing them from the budget.
/s
Remove the /s cause this is pretty much on the money.
meanwhile Florida ponders whether children in the mines should be fed
how does a 14 year old work overnight i dont get it
That’s easy: you don’t go to high-school anymore.
They can just sleep through the day at their woke school. /S
Can’t be woke if you’re asleep
Had us in the first half, not gonna lie.
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.
My brain auto completed it to say making them starve instead.
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.
Yeah, I think so too. Can’t remember the name either, it’s been a while.
That is SOCIALISM and I cant WAIT for My Republican Representative to FIGHT to OVERTURN this NONSENSE!
-Republicans who have NO PROBLEM giving BILLIONS of Their Tax Dollars to Elon Musk!
A person claimed to me today that Leon paid it all back. Argued the point until everyone within hearing distance laughed.
Utah. White people helping white people 🤍
Imagine children getting free lunches and you still manage to make it about: “ARF THEM EVIL WHITE PEOPLE!!!11”
Got outside, lunatic.
Cracker please. /s
Spicy response, I know, but “it’s always about evil white people”?
Nuh-uh, not going there.
You got me in the first half, ngl
I’ve been saying, “oh well” at just about every headline I’ve read in the past three months as a coping mechanism, but this one caught me off guard. I definitely expected Utah to charge kids full-price. Glad to hear they’re looking out for kids.
Mormons kinda give a shit about their communities
Good foreign policies too. They fought in court to pay less taxes because they dont pay for any war.
for mormon children only
And no minorities in that picture.
Love to see it.
That’s a nice start, but it needs to be free for all kids, like at least my state
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.

That this is a state-level thing tells you just how much Democrats suck.
And how awesome republicans are? Let’s look at all the policies in schools on average and decide. This is a great move by Utah, but I doubt the right wing Utahans pushed this.
The Republicans are awful people too.
That’s the point I’m making.
Your point was not clear. You sound like a maga, or one of those “undecided,” who are decidedly worse.
My point was exceedingly clear.
If Democrats did their job at the federal level, student lunch debt wouldn’t exist. Instead, they’re helping Israel run an apartheid.
You just didn’t understand it.
And the republicans are doing the same thing. Wait until they start building condos in Gaza.
Gotta love “democracy”.
Regardless of your constituency’s opinion, no one has any real power to hold a politician accountable for their promises.
There’s more than those two right parties. Take off your blinders and look around, will you?
Maybe watch an election cycle in Canada or Mexico to see how blinded you are.
We are talking about Utah.
Lots of bad ass antiwar Mormons in Utah
Really, never heard of them. They sure like to go to war locally.
