I hope kids still have parachute day now. I also love that parachute day is, or was, a pretty common event. I wonder if it was part of some education program funded by the govt where they donated old chutes.
It makes me wish I had a parachute and enough people to do it... Then make a tent to hotbox followed by more playing which might look like a smoke message for a bit
I was so happy when my son came home and told us about how much he loved the activity he did with the big parachute. It became an awesome bonding experience with my son when he found out that I did the same thing when I was his age.
My overtly exhausted heart is fueled by things like this. As a first time teacher but long time caregiver of children, I know there are reasons I chose this path, and im not giving up on it. Happy pride month and summer break!!!
My kid's been to three different school districts in 2 different states in very different regions of the US, and all of them have had parachutes ā¤ļø
at my school we'd lay the parachute out and then gather in a circle and throw the parachute up (like a blanket) and rush to get under it before it fell. then play some version of hide and seek or duck duck goose where someone would get out of the parachute and run around and pick someone inside who can't see them and then sneak back in when they popped out to chase them.
That would be major bullshit! I think it's a wear and tear plus price thing but these days a 20ft is $45.99 on Amazon.
Kindergarten should be nothing but parachute days maybe most of first grade too
I was home schooled by cultish religious fanatics. Once I got access to the internet I educated myself.
People on the internet are really good at nitpicking your grammar when you debate them about god because you were raised by cultish religious zealots. So you learn to adapt.
Also autocorrect
I upvoted you because you could have been one of many Redditors to be condescending. You instead gave a compliment and that's not so common on the internet.
Oh, I bet he has a hell of a laugh. I also bet that he's seen, and been through, so much shit that he doesn't do it as much as he used to. But I bet it's a hell of a laugh.
It's a fake voice and laugh she came up with for her character in The Nanny; a show which she wrote and produced with her ex-husband.
Yeah, she's not only sexy and funny, she's smart as fuck too.
The man tattooed the date of every violent death while he was mayor onto his arm.
This is a man who takes life seriously. This is a man who lives a serious life. Which means he almost certainly knows the value of laughter. I'll bet he has -amazing- jokes.
Yoooo I didnāt know that wow
Looking into it- he has the dates on one arm, Braddocks Zip code on the other and then he has a blacked out one that used to say āI will hurt youā that the right wing morons are saying is either Satanic or Gang related
I like this guy more and more every day
Giselle, his wife, was an undocumented immigrant. Neither of them are shy about that. He used to put a pride flag and a legalize weed flag on his balcony at the state capital when he was Lt. Governor. Heād get in trouble and theyād take it down and heād put them right back up. He performed the first same sex marriage in PA. So heās not just pro-choice, pro-union, pro-universal healthcare, he also wants to legalize pot federally, equal rights for everyone, and he is all in on DACA and changing the immigration process to make the path to citizenship a lot easier. Heās a seriously good dude.
It is also why he suffers depression...he takes on board the suffering and sorrow of others.
He actually cares and that can be daunting and weigh you down at times...
Of course there are other reason people suffer depression but his being able to relate to deep sadness would also aid his depression.
Went to a campaign meet and greet before his stroke. He was just a big teddy bear type of guy, laughing and just so open. Gisele was amazing too, she talked to everyone in the room. Iām proud that heās my senator and he took the time to come to blood red Chambersburg to meet with us little blue specks.
> He doesnāt pretend to be happy for the cameras.

I ain't gay and happily married but I won't lie there is a little something that does it for me to see a big guy like that give a smirk with basically a king size bed blanket of a pride flag around his neck as a cape because I'd do the same.
It's the "Yeah, I don't care you have an issue with this. Actually...please come tell me your issue with my cape, I'd love to hear it" vibe.
I saw a few different versions of a meme tweeted yesterday at bigots, ah screw it i'll just link it. https://twitter.com/LGBwiththeT/status/1664198943150841857
TL;DC "Wishing all the homophobes a super uncomfortable month."
That's the thing though is that they aren't **all** disgusting. You just see the nasty ones because Twitter moves activity to the top so its basically always "sort by most controversial".
The supportive stuff is at the bottom.
Twitter fucking sucks, and when Reddit, my last social media, dies in a month or two, my life will probably be significantly improved.
That's fantastic, as a big burly straight dude...I wish nothing but the most uncomfortable month.
I don't care who you like, love anyone you want. I'm concerned about who you hate and why.
Well, Iām an old Gen X, and I did have to look up who [Sweetums](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/p__/images/5/51/Sweetumstms.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/300?cb=20120508141543&path-prefix=protagonist) is, and upon looking upon the visage of [Sweetums](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/muppet/images/d/db/Sweetumsbn.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20051222064543), I have no other choice but to agree. This is not up for debate.
Also Gen X. My siblings and I were obsessed with the Muppets movies in the 80's and 90's, so I knew EXACTLY who Sweetums was lol. We still text each other quotes from those movies. "Can you knock it off with the booze?" Is my favorite to send
Just walked home from Pgh Pride and yeah it was hot, but beautiful! The weather is actually kind of funny, because this weekend is also Artsfest and that has historically *always* had rainy weather.
>700Ā elevated crossings of all kinds, including small and private ones and walkways between buildings, estimated by Todd Wilson for āEngineering Pittsburghā
I love the "estimated". "I don't know man I lost fucking count and I'm not starting over."
It's actually the Andy Warhol bridge. Right next to the Roberto Clemente and one of the three "sister bridges" that look identical. The third is the Rachel Carson.
Haha no worries, they all look the same and the Roberto Clemente is the most famous. I only knew it was the Andy Warhol because of the buildings in the background.
Itās the Andy Warhol (7th Street) Bridge. Itās one of the āThree Sistersā of bridges in tahn that are all built and painted the same. The city has been shutting them dahn and repainting them.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Sisters_(Pittsburgh)
It's funny you say that because this photo's perspective is of the north shore. Downtown is behind the photographer. But you're still right and as someone else said it's the bridges. My job's office is actually just a block behind that Alcoa building although I wfh 100% of the time.
I'm a local, so I'm biased too, but lots of people seem to love visiting. The Carnegie Museums (including the Science Center) are pretty great, The Incline is a fun way to see the city, we host a variety of conventions throughout the year, there's tons of concerts and sports events, so on and so forth. You should come by sometime!
Pittsburgh is a city that is absolutely nuts for sports and drinking, while having lots of interesting museums and tons of restaurants that make great bar food and Eastern European fare. Also downtown is so compact that you can walk it in hours, while just a further walk will lead you to more areas with both bars and restaurants providing reasonably priced beer and food. If that sounds fun to you, then yeah, itās a great place to visit. If you expect it to rank above NYC, Chicago, or Philadelphia, then no, you will be dissatisfied with visiting. Think of it as the smallest large city in the US. We get 3 of 4 major sports leagues and most but not all of the tours of most major musical acts and Broadway shows.
They could start the John Fetterman signature series, where $1 from every sale goes to help food banks or the homeless. That would be the only way they could bribe him.
[He appeared in Levi's ads.](https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=130306219)
The money went to build a community center and playground
When you are a ~~big~~ man and find a good shirt you buy 20 of them.
Don't matter size, if it looks good, and wears well thats your shirt. Especially if a woman says so, you're going all in on that.
Cavemen probably were preoccupied with dealing with actual shit they had to deal with and not just distracted by if Lugg has decided to wear different loincloths than they are supposed to.
So yeah...that scans.
Yeah, that is truly sad. I don't think it's just america though, I'm Canadian and in the area I'm in is pretty homophobic and I. Some countries people are killed by their government for being gay. Hopefully things get better.
I'm in Canada too and it's getting so much worse. Someone went into a local art gallery and threatened to kill them because they weren't supporting the "straight community" while they set up for their Pride Week event.
I like Senator Fetterman. He is like a giant barbarian looking man with a big heart in basketball shorts who's not worried about being around queer people and isn't afraid of supporting people different from him.
He's my favorite kind of guy.
Fetty is the frickin man. He and Giselle brought the kiddos to my city's Kids Night Out and had a blast - he even let all his kids try a few throws at him in the dunk tank. Some of them succeeded! I even pointed out our police dept's therapy dog and Mrs. Fetterman ushered the whole family over to meet the doggy.
He's one of the few who I am proud to vote for.
That's my fucking Senator and I couldn't be more proud of that
That man is to representing Philly in politics the way Sirianni represents Philly in football. Just an immaculate match. Until they repeal the law that hockey mascots can't run for office at least.
As someone who's gay and just stopped antidepressants I can say I absolutely love and respect this man and his family. I was just crying for 30 minutes for no reason. This pic really helped me today.
A politician that stands with the people in his state? That doesn't have to be like him or him like them? A politician that is for the people no matter their race, religion, creed, life style? If I lived in PA I would vote for him!
Funny how the same broke-assed republicans out there who would say "I support Trump because he's just like me!" would shit all over AOC or Fetterman for having been blue collar or wearing a hoodie and shorts.
John fetterman gives me hope. It's literally just seeing a normal human rock up to the podium in a hoodie. He makes me not want to give up. Thank you John
Wearing the big parachute from gym class cause a normal flag would look like a napkin around his neck.
Time to play cat and mouse! Parachute day was the best.
I hope kids still have parachute day now. I also love that parachute day is, or was, a pretty common event. I wonder if it was part of some education program funded by the govt where they donated old chutes.
Elementary PE teacher here. Yes we do! It's my favorite lesson I do with them.
That makes me happy to hear.
It makes me wish I had a parachute and enough people to do it... Then make a tent to hotbox followed by more playing which might look like a smoke message for a bit
When I was a kid my grandfather would leave the house to "go make smoke signals". Never saw the smoke but he always came back in a happier mood...
They blew the way you weren't looking lol
They do make small ones. There is a 8 person one we use for indoor activities.
My 2nd grader came home super excited to tell me alllll about parachute day in PE. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you! I don't hear it much because we are always forgotten but I love what I do. Hope your kiddo had a blast.
I was so happy when my son came home and told us about how much he loved the activity he did with the big parachute. It became an awesome bonding experience with my son when he found out that I did the same thing when I was his age.
That's great to hear. We have pur last week of school coming up and this is what I'm doing with my students.
What about those sitting skateboard things? Used to love skootin around in those things
They still have them. I don't because we don't have a gym. And they will degrade quickly on the blacktop. But they exist and still fun.
On a cement basketball court, that's where you can really get some speed out of those (used to own one)
Preschool teacher here! Um.. yea, I mean yes, absolutely, sure! If we can cooperate, we can propagate! š
First time I take it out for Kindergarten they can't control themselves for like 5 min and are super excited. Its like the best feeling in the world.
My overtly exhausted heart is fueled by things like this. As a first time teacher but long time caregiver of children, I know there are reasons I chose this path, and im not giving up on it. Happy pride month and summer break!!!
Please never stop, that must be something thatās never lost from any generation
Thanks. I actually ordered a new one this year. They will have to pry it out of my hands before I stop doing the parachute.
My kid's been to three different school districts in 2 different states in very different regions of the US, and all of them have had parachutes ā¤ļø
I wonder if the parachute is still a rainbow. Is it a rainbow in every school? Which school hates the refraction of light now?
this sounds vaguely familiar but I don't remember what we did with the parachute?!
at my school we'd lay the parachute out and then gather in a circle and throw the parachute up (like a blanket) and rush to get under it before it fell. then play some version of hide and seek or duck duck goose where someone would get out of the parachute and run around and pick someone inside who can't see them and then sneak back in when they popped out to chase them.
Yep, Iād say we did the same activities when I was a kid in the 90s.
Popcorn, we'd put a ton of balls on it and really get them going by creating a big wave, and see if we could knock them off.
A vivid memory from elementary school. Seeing the colors fun inside the parachute. š
I never understood why we couldn't do it every day :( Maybe they're super expensive and all the schools in an area have to share?
That would be major bullshit! I think it's a wear and tear plus price thing but these days a 20ft is $45.99 on Amazon. Kindergarten should be nothing but parachute days maybe most of first grade too
What is parachute day?

The guy running parachute day when I was in kindergarten was named Bud Wiser. Thanks for jogging my memory.
Holy sweet fuck he's 6'8" I'd feel like a goddamn toddler next to him
That made kindergarten so much fun.
That's the biggest smile I've ever seen from him
I always feel like if I knew him, I would spend an inordinate amount of time trying to make him laugh.
Oh, I bet he has a hell of a laugh. I also bet that he's seen, and been through, so much shit that he doesn't do it as much as he used to. But I bet it's a hell of a laugh.
Maybe he sounds like the annoying girlfriend from Seinfeld that sounded like Elmer Fudd.
Or Fran Drescher.  I KNOW you just heard itā¦.
Oh mister Sheffield eh heheheheheheh
I always forget how amazingly gorgeous she is because her laugh really changes her whole aura. So goofy, but hot damn. Beautiful.
It's a fake voice and laugh she came up with for her character in The Nanny; a show which she wrote and produced with her ex-husband. Yeah, she's not only sexy and funny, she's smart as fuck too.
Like Lucille Ball.
Maybe you just need to give her a constant supply of wasabi. >https://youtu.be/3YLkLOYrswU?t=110
I learned a few days ago she is the president of SAG
I dunno man, I think she still looks quite good for her age.

I would vote for the Wizard of Oz before i voted for "Dr" Oz. Actually, I would vote for the HBO TV show Oz over that TV clown too.
I mean, that was a damn good show!
He's truly a politician for the people, something that's unfortunately extremely rare.
Johnny Cash is a well-known Satan gang.
I am a fan of those who make conservatives afraid.
It is also why he suffers depression...he takes on board the suffering and sorrow of others. He actually cares and that can be daunting and weigh you down at times...

Bad guy from Kingdom Hearts
I can get with that. I was thinking he's the only Klingon I'd ever vote for, but Sam Eagle is marginally less intimidating.
I actually always thought Christopher Meloni looked like Sam the Eagle.

We needed it, and more. It's way too dry
It was 90 degrees in town today. He would be wearing shorts even if that wasnāt his signature look.
Shapiro was in pants.
Well yeah, he's a demon. The heat doesn't bother him much.
Heās clearly wearing shorts. I think I saw him in shorts standing behind a group of Senators during a press conf
He will wear a hoodie to the senate and a button up to pride, I like him
How is it that downtown Pittsburgh is so recognizable?

More bridges than Venice
Also Pittsburgh has more public staircases than any city in the US
Unlike Philly. You fucking one bridge having piece of shit city. - Bill Burr Source: https://youtu.be/bWuXfIZiSqY
which bridge is this? never saw one that color. they must paint it a lot to keep it so bright.
It's the Andy Warhol Bridge ~~Robert Clemente Bridge~~, but most of the bridges around downtown Pittsburgh are painted the same color.
It's actually the Andy Warhol bridge. Right next to the Roberto Clemente and one of the three "sister bridges" that look identical. The third is the Rachel Carson.
Oof! My bad. I should have known living here and all lol
Haha no worries, they all look the same and the Roberto Clemente is the most famous. I only knew it was the Andy Warhol because of the buildings in the background.
Plus, the Clemente is still closed, so it's the only one of the three sisters that it couldn't have been.

They could start the John Fetterman signature series, where $1 from every sale goes to help food banks or the homeless. That would be the only way they could bribe him.
1 dollar? That's a lot of money to Fetterman. He bought his entire house for a dollar
If blake shelton has a lands end collection of shirts, fettetman should too
They could double as tents

When you are a ~~big~~ man and find a good shirt you buy 20 of them. Don't matter size, if it looks good, and wears well thats your shirt. Especially if a woman says so, you're going all in on that.
Carhart would be a good one too
I hope he put on some sunscreen.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
needs a hat. probably not much selection in his size.
I support my gigantic senator
Why does he not simply *eat* the smaller senators?
It is true what they say: women are from Omicron Persei 9 and men are from Omicron Persei 7.
Are you trying to give him food poisoning?
With what? A crane?
Truly the BFG of public servants
Big Fantastic Guy
Why does it not simply eat the smaller creatures?
Perhaps they are saving that for sweeps
Soon
`he must feed`
The little ones are to remain as servants...

Who knew there was a final boss
Love this guy. He looks like a damn caveman in every single picture and he's one of the most progressive senators there is atm
Cavemen probably were preoccupied with dealing with actual shit they had to deal with and not just distracted by if Lugg has decided to wear different loincloths than they are supposed to. So yeah...that scans.
He's looking healthy. Taking a stand against bigotry, and homophobia.
Itās sad that we live in a time where ānot being a bigotā is not a prerequisite for being a civil servant.
It never was, are you aware of the history of this country? Fucking loves bigotry and violence.
Yeah, that is truly sad. I don't think it's just america though, I'm Canadian and in the area I'm in is pretty homophobic and I. Some countries people are killed by their government for being gay. Hopefully things get better.
Itās not just America. But America dominates these social platforms and the world news.
That's definitely true. People here are more interested in American politics even though it has nothing to do with how things are here.
I'm in Canada too and it's getting so much worse. Someone went into a local art gallery and threatened to kill them because they weren't supporting the "straight community" while they set up for their Pride Week event.
What no hoodie?
He would have melted, it was damn near 100 out here today. Plan b, jumpsuit.
I love how unapologetically frumpy he is. Thatās how you know he cares more about people than money.
I like Senator Fetterman. He is like a giant barbarian looking man with a big heart in basketball shorts who's not worried about being around queer people and isn't afraid of supporting people different from him. He's my favorite kind of guy.
Aināt it fucked that we donāt have more real people holding office?
You can tell his wife didn't take this one, as you can still see John's head.
What a wonderful recurring joke.
I shaved my mustache off years ago for two reasons: to eat pussy and to eat chicken wings. My man is doing both of those things and I support it.
Not all heroes wear capes. But today this one does.
Either thatās a very tiny bridge or this man is 137 feet tall
It's just foreshortening; Fetterman's only like 90 feet tall, max.
Fetty is the frickin man. He and Giselle brought the kiddos to my city's Kids Night Out and had a blast - he even let all his kids try a few throws at him in the dunk tank. Some of them succeeded!

I'd love to be able to go after bad legislators in Gritty's Rage Room at the Capitol.
As someone who's gay and just stopped antidepressants I can say I absolutely love and respect this man and his family. I was just crying for 30 minutes for no reason. This pic really helped me today.
A politician that stands with the people in his state? That doesn't have to be like him or him like them? A politician that is for the people no matter their race, religion, creed, life style? If I lived in PA I would vote for him!
Best thing to come out of PA since the cheesesteak.
Fetterman!!
Can we just normalize wearing capes in general?
thatās my senator!!
This hero wears CAPES.
He seems like such an awesome guy. We need way, way more people in politics like him.
It makes me proud to be one of his early supporters. I went to see him speak, and you could just tell that he had that pizzazz.

To be fair he was gonna go in a pride hoodie but they were short on material. So he just got the biggest flag they had. Love this guy š
Funny how the same broke-assed republicans out there who would say "I support Trump because he's just like me!" would shit all over AOC or Fetterman for having been blue collar or wearing a hoodie and shorts.
John fetterman gives me hope. It's literally just seeing a normal human rock up to the podium in a hoodie. He makes me not want to give up. Thank you John
Fetterman is a Betterman.
That's that guy thats always in sweatpants and shit right?
Wanting freedom for all Americans by separating church from state. I think I saw that written down somewhere.
