My brain auto completed it to say making them starve instead.
Lol. Brain be funny sometimes.
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.
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.
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
You got me in the first half, ngl
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.

for mormon children only
And no minorities in that picture.
"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.
Just a reminder that the LDS Church has $206 Billion in the bank.
A church. $206 Billion.
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 that just the bubble 'porn' that went viral in the 2000's?
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.
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.
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

Richest country in the history of the planet, and we have "lunch debt" for kids in school.
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
Well yeah, how are we going to get rich if we aren’t taking money from 5 year olds?

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

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.
