Trying to find tactful ways to say "actually, this email found me directly in hell and I find your disingenuous concern patronizing and manipulative" in my email communications this week. Just wanted to report that very much unlike my life, it's going gangbusters! 👍🏾
@iSmashFizzle Mine started when I was in my early 20s, but it really ramped up when I was about 30 (they were 80+ & 70+). The pandemic made it worse due to isolation/poor access to services & care they needed. We live together now and it's been pretty good for all of us.
@ScottsBotsAus The whole thread was well-written, but this tweet painted an especially clear picture... I'm so happy she's got a neighbor like you who notices the details and is there for her ❤️
@mviski @RottenInDenmark Moved to the Bay just two years back and I've lost count of how many times I've heard someone say similar. Never louder than right after someone's proposed a halfway realistic, equitable solution.
i don’t really wanna see any of the “you never know what people are going through” discourse today because, in all honesty, y’all aren’t any kinder when you do.
Bro, just come skiing with me. Lift tickets cost $150 per day and you can rent skis for another $50 and you can get a lesson for another $120. It’s so fun and your risk of injury is so high. C’mon bro, you won’t feel your hands & you’ll get sunburn on your face. Bro.
@rachsyme Europe on a sunny, crisp fall day. The air is fresh and with a light jacket it's comfortable to walk around outside. The hazy daylight makes you feel what Monet was capturing in his paintings. Leaves crunch under your feet. Life is good.
When we have insecure attachment patterns our mind may often fixate on people’s emotions to cope.
It’s important to consistently remind ourselves we are safe, and to stop playing our childhood roles.
I know feminism is about personal choice but the older I get the harder of a time I have accepting that women are expected to change their name after marriage and that their children almost always get the father's name for no reason other than because the patriarchy said so.
