Where can I drop off stuff like toilet paper and canned goods? Don’t tell me a church because I’m atheist. Also, Wider Circle said just furniture now. And I can’t stand Salvation Army for reasons known only to me. It’s a religion, BTW

Has anyone gotten Wider Circle to take a huge TV armoire? Purchased new at Crate and Barrel in 2004.

We’re the dead masked and vaxxed? I smell a conspiracy here.

Most importantly, should our family of 5 cancel our Disney Cruise next month?

There were a few crew members who survived the Titanic, only to perish in the sinking of the Britannic. I can't imagine plunging into the water and thinking, Man, I survived the Titanic and now am going to die like this?!

Wow, I didn't know that. Their last thought must have been "FML."

Wow. I didn’t know that either.

First PP here. It's even worse than that. Their experience on the Titanic, with too few lifeboats, led them to panic and launch their lifeboats prematurely, before the order saying it was safe to do so. As a result, they got pulled in and chewed up by the ship's giant propellers.

I don't know how, but I'd forgotten that detail and was reminded when I went back to the documentary on Prime, where I'd seen it a few years ago.

Oh sure, women want the right to vote, but were they concerned about equality when the lifeboats were loaded?!

In addition to yard signs and magnets and beaded earrings and fundraising I’m also crocheting masks to mail to survivors aboard Brittania. I’m basically doing the most, as always LOL. If you want something done ask a busy mama!!!!

My son Braedyon is 5. He woke up this morning and found his Mama Bear sitting in front of the tv watching CNN live coverage of the Titanic sinking. I was crying so hard I couldn’t stop to explain what happened. He put his arms around me and sat down to watch.

Then Braedyon disappeared and returned holding a handful of pennies. “Will this help the pweeple Mama?” I pulled him close and through tears said, yes. Braedyon got out his Bob the Builder bucket and announced he was going door to door to collect pennies from neighbors.

He’s doing this all by himself! And he has Marsteller-Hydrogeny-Peptic-Orthostatic-Premature-Insulin-inhabited-Static Disorder that as you know causes significant impairment.

Help Braedyon get to his goal of #penniesforRMS

Nah, this isn’t DCUM. This is a mommy blogger/annoying FB friend

You need to visit the Politics forum. There are quite a few that cry at CNN's coverage.

Y’all I’m having a neighborhood yard sale. Proceeds benefit #RMS and a few animal rescue groups I support

So, has Taft mobilized the National Guard or Navy yet? What is he waiting for?

Icebergs are melting. We are at fault for not respecting Mother Earth. Composting and recycling isn’t enough people

Is it rude to share vacation photos on FB from our cruise last month? Insensitive?

[Anonymous]

If the passengers who died were not wearing masks and were unvaccinated, then they got what they deserved.

This is why we have a private boat.

All this coverage has made me so upset and anxious. We have a cruise booked for this summer, and it’s our first real vacation in over two years (between Covid and DH’s BigLaw schedule, it’s been really hard to find quality family time). Now I’m second-guessing myself. Do you think that they will have new safety regulations in place by July? Can I bring a personal inflatable raft onboard? (I was thinking of having it delivered to an Amazon locker near the dock.)

What about our nanny? She’ll be staying on a different level, and will have a different muster station than us. It will be really inconvenient if an emergency happens at night — we’ll wind up in the lifeboat alone with our kids (8, 10, 14). Can I ask Royal Caribbean to make an exception for her? Would my DS14 be counted as a man? Or could the captain allow him to go into the boat with the other children? (He has a late summer birthday and is small for his age, plus ADHD. His therapist and endocrinologist both say he’s still very much a child.)

This is all so overwhelming! If anyone has any experience with surviving a shipwreck, or knows of an organization/business that could help me plan, I’d really appreciate some advice. I mean, I think of Titanic and just get so cold at the idea of having our well-deserved vacation ruined like that.
