All that said, I'm so fortunate to have my husband and supportive family through all of it. My Dad was such a huge part of that emotional support, though. It's been so painful.
I've barely used any personal social media since October 2024 because I've felt that there's been nothing but awful news to share - We lost all 3 of our senior pets, the last one in November. My Dad unexpectedly passed away early in December.
@smoogymma I don't even take the lens cap off until I can see that the eagle's grooming is on point. We're spoiled - unless you're one of those freaks who value regularly attending events or a variety of restaurants, of course.
@NakedGambling Dammit! You could've warned us better. I went into this hoping for a Tito speech to brighten my morning, now I'm just concerned for humanity and somehow also more aggressive.
Personally disappointed because this feels like we came *so* close to hearing an elected official take a big sniff and declare "Yeah, I thought it smelled like Bitch out here."
@DrFreezepop @Actionman513 A lot of us (women, not MAGA) end up with loads of internalized misogyny because of conditioning, and this busted thinking is the sad result of her not recognizing/working on that bullshit. Hate to see it.
There's a Marvel vs Capcom rerelease out today, which means randomly getting blasted by "HADOUKEN!" sound effects whenever my husband isn't asleep or working for the foreseeable future.
@murderxbryan The teen he was messaging as a married 38 year old dad was "in the age of consent in the jurisdiction where the messages were sent" so we're just being woke pussies by condemning him. Don't you get it?!
@NakedGambling@PintOfJack Those red flags are exactly why I appreciate that he seems to make an effort not to step outside of his specialty in his content. Hopefully it stays that way!
@NakedGambling@PintOfJack This is the right attitude to have, though I wouldn't group him closely with Huberman because I rarely hear Dr. Mike speak beyond his expertise with any confidence.
