Someday I’ll focus long enough to accomplish something with my life, like publishing a book or finding true love. Until then, I’m just a dreamer.

@ChantalElisa @libriscent I enabled my narcissist to kill my spirit. I may be biologically alive but spiritually I never lived a day

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@NatashaCL7 I, on the other hand, would relish being hated on social media to prove I actually exist

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@NatashaCL7 @ayojoestar I do this all the time. But I’ve been led to believe I’m just lazy. I do not have a disorder. Trying to attribute my behaviors to a disorder is another form of laziness, an explanation I have thoroughly accepted and use to beat myself up with every day

@HDunn_Writer @crystalwizard My favorite part was him doing social commentary on Animal House and including the release date. It was almost like AI wrote that part of his post

@Super70sSports Hey Jude; it’s never been hard for me to choose. I love the repeat chorus at the end

@TimothyImholt Mine is depressed self hatred, FWIW

@sophpen I thought maybe Canadians just had one less May Day on their calendar to account for the maple syrup growing season, similar to how we do daylight savings I. The U.S.

@HDunn_Writer I’m hanging in there. Thank you for caring enough to check in.

The dirty secret is that most of our parents didn’t want us. Our parents were the 1st generation that could have endless sex with whoever, only they hadn’t mastered birth control yet. So they had a lot of unwanted kids who they made fend for themselves, not that I’m still bitter

[Crazy Vibes @CrazyVibes_1]

Dear Gen X,
I’ve been watching 80s movies and I just need to know…WHERE WERE YOUR PARENTS??
Every child was just wandering the earth unsupervised like a raccoon with house keys. Riding bikes across town at midnight, fighting ghosts, investigating murders, befriending cryptids, hacking government computers for funsies…
And the parents were ALWAYS “out of town” or “working late” while the only adult-adjacent supervision was some random 16-year-old who got dragged into the chaos.

No cell phones. No helmets. No adult supervision. Just vibes, life lessons, and several near-death experiences.

You all weren’t “raised.” You were lightly monitored feral creatures with a bike and unresolved trauma.

I’m genuinely shocked there are enough of you left to populate an entire generation.

@NatashaCL7 I’ve chosen to not believe anything unless I witnessed it with my own eyes. While it sounds dumb, it forces you to question everything you hear and even stuff on video that can be faked or edited. I distrust all people cause we all have agendas

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@HDunn_Writer I don’t need any convincing. Three of my biggest supporters thru my struggles are all Catholics. (And I’d probably count you as a distant 4th since you’re always so kind when I start to spiral on this platform). I’m not ready to convert just yet but it’s tempting

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

Struggling with mental health my entire adult life has meant disappointing everyone around me. It’s wanting desperately to meet the needs of others but being unable to. It’s wanting desperately for others to meet your needs but they’re unwilling to because you’re a burden.

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@NatashaCL7 @ElenaGCotulbea Learned this lesson way too late

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@HDunn_Writer I’m discovering in hindsight I should have never even entered into such a relationship in the first place. I came into this world broken and never figured out the fix. People said Jesus would fix me but Christians just made me feel worse

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@HDunn_Writer I was until I committed to marriage counseling. I didn’t think I could handle both concurrently so I quit selfishly trying to help myself to focus on salvaging a marriage. But that strategy backfired so I’ll probably try to do both now

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@authormegbecker Women who thinks it’s revolting on the other hand…

Who married men who would love to receive AND give on a regular basis…

Not dangerous. Or addicting

I hate myself

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

Do the people who start a post with “Unpopular opinion” do any research to find out if their opinion is indeed unpopular or do they just want us to believe they’re an edgy contrarian? I can’t count how many of these opinions I give zero f***s about

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

Any other men feel completely worthless in this world that requires men to know how to operate power tools and shoot guns and be super strong AND sensitive and have a brain that doesn’t tell you all the time what a loser you are. Just me?

[Joel Palmer @PenseeCorner]

@AuthorGFAllen How optimistic and naive of you
