Technically Iβm lying on my couch in the hellscape that is anytime after 2020, but mentally Iβm hearing Decode for the first time at the midnight screening of Twilight circa 2008
@MrMisanthropst This post is less about the specific example given and more about not excusing people for (fill in the blank here) just because they were raised a certain way. Society wants SO BADLY to do away with personal responsibility, which I am 0% on board with π«
Everybody: yeah but you just have to understand, that's how they were raised [so you just have to learn to excuse it]
Me: cool! I was raised not only to use the n word, but also given specifics on when to use the "hard r" and when to use the "uh" sound at the end. Am I excused?
My mom: did you see [guys name] and his girlfriend had a baby?
Me: oh yeah I saw that
My mom: so sad
Me: right? They havent looked happy in photos in a long time, that baby obviously wasnt born into a good relationship βΉοΈ
My mom: oh I just meant that they're not married
Me:
Me years ago: my relationship has completely fallen apart. He's checked out of life and would donate me to the devil for free if it wouldn't be an inconvenience to him
My evangelical "friends" at the time: y'all just need to have children, that will fix it
Me:
Y'all are gonna have to try a lot harder than "Tylenol causes autism" since Tylenol was released in 1955 and I come from a LONG line of autists, spanning back to (at least) the 1920s
Had to send Adam to Walgreens to get pads this morning. PCOS has me totally unable to go in public without a new pad. I said "just FaceTime me when you get there so I can tell you which ones." He said "oh I already know which ones." π₯Ή
And that's on having a *partner*
Peering at YouTube's homepage, fingers over my face so as to not see the horrors, I type in "Jenna Marbles" so I can watch her turn herself into Kermit for the 100tb time and pretend like it's not 2025 with all of its horrors
Did you know? Forcing a relationship to "work" when you're not compatible is actually not going to make up for how your parents didn't love you π«€ believe me, I tried! Wayyyy cooler to marry someone who wouldn't let you bleed out on the side of the road. Ask me how I know π₯°
@90DayArmy1 I still can't believe anyone ever liked her. from the very beginning she was SO condescending and hateful towards him. Constantly putting him down for his age. She's just with him to feel bigger and better and now that he doesn't care, she's losing it. Pathetic human being
"Middle children are just built different."
No. You infantilized your youngest, parentified your oldest, and completely ignored your middle child. This is not rocket science

Me for the last 13 years:
Hey ladies lifting weights is actually really important for you to maintain bone density, keep your hormones in check and yeah, look great
Someone I know, every year, without fail: hey did y'all know lifting weights is actually awesome?
A major win for the Free Market/Cancel Culture:
Two years ago, American eagle had *lost their minds* in that they were selling a graphic t, ON SALE, for $54.
This year, its regular price is $30.
We love to see it
Ah yes, can't wait to pick up some "In shumt reduced calore prorino & pieteuxer" next time I'm at the store
Another entry in my own personal hell where everyone I've ever known lost the ability to read and think over the last 5 years π«
