Yo if you got an OC you want me to breed senseless without warning post their ref here

My F-list describes more about what they'd likely be in for: https://t.co/NznUhWMW7c

No guarantees but you never know... I do plan to pick some if I get enough

Also feel free to RT etc.

@NewImperialsUse @FilmLadd @bekuta_it @HughAkston0 Wait... did he maybe think I'm trans because I have pronouns in my bio? Is that what he was going for all along? 🤔

Here I thought it was just being used as a general epithet but... that would make it even funnier 😆

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@NewImperialsUse @FilmLadd @bekuta_it @HughAkston0 Look I generally try not to rub people's faces in that particular own but...

You're not wrong 🤣

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@GSteel1984 @VerumEstLiberta @FilmLadd Plus we didn't have nearly as comprehensive (let alone analyzable) medical data... so all DSM considerations aside it still would've been hella hard to really know what we were dealing with

The way it was somehow even more stigmatized in prior eras also would mask a lot of it

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd One of the beautiful things about wisdom is that it can often be expressed different ways 👍

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd The saying "you get what you pay for" is so very often true

As is "if something is free to you, you're the product"

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd The "lie flat" movement I think has a lot in common... and ironically is based in the same place that our own economic grinder depends upon to keep up its consumption indefinitely

Are either of those outlooks good? Perchance not... but they are reactions to toxic environments

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd There we go 😆

And thanks to this tweet #TIL that that chain was actually established that far back (1959 with the modern name +/- earlier franchise drama). The more you know! 🤔

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd Pish tosh: surely the privilege of so much as touching his glorious face is worth more than that to any interested bidder!

/s

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@bigdumbchops @FilmLadd Well... when they're the center of their own world they -are- the big picture (at least as far as they're concerned) 🙄

Thus every perceived slight is clearly massively personal and inexcusable... and any attempts to move the camera off of them provoke juvenile tantrum behavior

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@HattoriPonzo @FilmLadd I salute (at the least) your willingness to work with some who haven't figured things out yet... the gratification of helping someone genuinely improve is hard to beat and it uplifts the community as you say

It's a risk but it's one too few are willing to take even in good cases

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@GodsConduit @LiquidBrolaire @FilmLadd Same 😆

Honestly it's just the same old song and dance from them about whoever the latest generation to join the workforce is at the time

Y'know... the ones who more often haven't yet learned how to recognize their garbage a mile away and avoid it like the plague

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@TripBurg @FilmLadd I kinda wish he hadn't blocked me just so I could be amused by whatever garbo response he likely had to this 😆

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd And that latter situation won't see you having that much and still living anywhere people are happy to live (try an apartment in rougher parts of town e.g.)

As opposed to the white-picket-fence Levittown dream of yesteryear--yet for plenty back then it also wasn't merely a dream

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd My sympathies for your TBI... those are tough business

There's something to be said for the integrity of not wanting to just perpetuate a toxic work culture and feel a corporate-owned cog in the machine

We need better alternatives but something big will have to give to get them

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd More supportive evidence of what you're saying vs. him: https://t.co/4FUWclQs1S

And to the factory piece:
https://t.co/r21fpfgsVL

Even if those roles could have made it then... they sure can't now

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd Very valid point here. The "breadwinner" and "housewife" duality lasted a long time. It was expected that the latter would help the former decompress and have peace at home for the sake of recovery.

But when one income is often not enough to support even oneself anymore...

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@0220Mamacita @FilmLadd I think there's something to be said for this. It takes guts to be vulnerable and take a chance on people (especially with money)... but it's a very human thing to do

And the world needs a lot more humans being humane to one another if it's to get better any time soon 👍

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@RJtheCableGuy @FilmLadd I should wonder how well that can be/has been demonstrated... with the heterogeneity in how homeschoolers can go about what they do I have to wonder if assessment methods will necessarily have sampling/reporting bias in addition to difficulties with consistent metrics 🤔

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@DwarvenConstit1 @FilmLadd Certainly advanced jobs exist that can provide that much and more (I presume we both think that a given)

But they generally won't be anyone's first/fast-food job and neither will they be ones from a lot of small business owners with the mindsets on display in this fracas 😒

[Styrling Dùn Breatainn @StyrlingDB]

@RJtheCableGuy @FilmLadd I can see it! There are certainly some who have done a poor job doing something that is nominally "homeschooling" but ultimately disadvantaged their kids. And there are also those who have done great and really set their kids ahead in life in a lot of ways. And all in between.
