@alexcarr18@Da5vi I don’t like that you see me as a simp. I worship no one. It’s just nice to get some fucking validation that it’s ok to think these things against the dead. SIMPle as that.
@alexcarr18 You seem to have some sort of familiar relationship with Jennette. I don’t. I’m too old to have watched her Disney shows. I did love In Between and was sad it was cancelled. But other than that I don’t know anything. I’m speaking MY truth, you are welcome to your feelings.
@alexcarr18@Da5vi I’m guessing you do not have a toxic mom. Things get complicated. You can both love at your highest and hate at your lowest, for the very person that gave you life. The title is controversial, but I would’ve never found this book if it weren’t for the title sticking out.
@jennettemccurdy I loved my mother so much. But she was flawed and she scarred me growing up. She was my best friend. If she had lived past me turning 12 I feel like I’d be drugged out and promiscuous. I still search for that validation all the time. But I was able to get out of it at 12.
This book did more for me than 10 years of therapy. It let me accept being angry toward a dead person. We do romanticize the dead….. That can be really damaging.
Listened to “I’m glad my mom died” by Jennette McCurdy. It was so good. I’m glad she overcame this. But the whole time I was thinking …. My mom was way worse. Encouraging an eating disorder/giving guilt trips is terrible. But my mom also did heavy drugs and put me around bad men
I have watched many, many seasons of reality TV.
#TheChallengeUSA may be the most whackadoo, messiest, worst ending to one that I have ever seen.
Holy moly. I had been enjoying the majority of this season up to this point. But it fell. HARD.
I am truly stunned at it all
@tyhenrymedium Yes! My mom hated taking pictures and I only have 2 photos of us together. One with me sleeping on her chest as a baby and one that was a professional family photo when I was 6. It’s been 26 years and if it weren’t for my vivid dreams I wouldn’t know her voice anymore.
Monte: I wish that white america could step into that environment the way we’re forced to and learn a lot of lessons that we learn that you have to find a way to connect with people that don’t look like you. Unfortunately a large majority of them do not #bb24
