Seems like we're all isolating when it's never been more important to stick together

[Joey Swoll @TheJoeySwoll]

No, our parents raised us better than that. 💯

@_imsigh I hate to say this, but... there's no doubt about it

[Vulpraxis @vulpraxis]

@secemp9 with this it's almost 1/6

@musestoomuch Yeah, it was a very insecure and pathetic take. I'm not sure if it's just louder, but it seems like the sides of this are getting more polarizing

A woman determines, to a significant extent, what a relationship ultimately becomes.

My grandmother used to tell me that if a good man makes the mistake of choosing the wrong woman, he can watch his entire bloodline slowly deteriorate through that single decision. A woman must therefore have her priorities in order, possess enough discernment to know what should be forgiven, what should be confronted, and what truly matters in the long run.

Men make mistakes, and women do too. The deeper question is whether two people possess the capacity to forgive one another, remain loyal through imperfection, and continue choosing each other despite the inevitable wounds that emerge over time.

That is what love actually is.

Not to be that person, but I have found that adjusting my vitamins and minerals in the first trimester has helped a lot with first trimester fatigue.

First it was that I accidentally forgot to take my hydroxo b12 for 2 weeks and got very sleepy until I started it up again.

Now I switched to a prenatal liquid on top of my already extensive supplement stack to cover any missing things and I feel less lethargic already. Adding some blackstrap molasses to my coffee too.

Let’s see how this goes until I get tired again and find something else to modify.

Also, lots of fruit and low fat milk. And a protein snack every 1-2 hours like cottage cheese helps with the stomach queasiness.

It's shocking how many films demoralize and put down marriage and children- treating them as an obstacle that must be tediously and strategically avoided to perserve one's self.

Popularized in the 1960s, but a steady theme in films throughout all of Hollywood- morphing from an idea to mock, into the framework and base thesis of almost every popular film until the mid 1990s.

It's quite disturbing. Sitting at home with my 10 month old, I mostly watch movies all day- catching up on films from all eras I have never seen.

Most films aren't so heavy handed propaganda as others, but almost every film has some elements of this shown in a sympathetic or outright possitive light; the sticky-fingered- dirty-faced boy, the ever present doubt of the young bride, the unfaithful horney groom to be, the intellectual afraid of wasting their life tied down- yet spend most their time being a slut. . . I could go on.

These aren't real people. They are generally useless characters in the films as well- not part of the story, but some kind of judge of both it and the viewer, as if to warn.

The core characters almost always diverge from this propaganda as a necessity for the story to move forward, to "grow" as a character -even though they are often vidicated or affirmed in their views and never actually abandon the anti-family stance- but the film can't move forward without the charade.

Some "clever" efforts bluntly inject a narrator voice into the film as an antagonist- sometimes pro, but usually the antagonist because it's propaganda.

This usually manifests (predictably) as some form of writer, journalist, or intellectual- professor, etc... it is the most over used stereotypical cliché in all of film: writers writing about writers writing; injecting their idiotic personal philosophies and hatred for the family right into a core character of the film.

It's all so tiresome.

This is why Hollywood so often just remakes a story. They've been doing that since the very beginning- because writers are generally just insufferable communists, lonely incels, or just terribly arrogant intellectuals (probably bitter because they wanted to be hard hitting journalists or fancy themselves as a modern Sheakspear- only no one wants to read their garbage manifesto disguised as a novel), who can't make it on their own merit so they attach themselves to a writer's union that forces film studios to hire them. . . So they can inject their poison into anything they can.

That's why Hollywood will make a thousand Avengers movies before producing one original script. That's why they buy IP instead of creating it. Yes, now the tables have turned and the game is to destroy the IP, but that wasn't always the goal.

Unions have taken over every pop culture industry from film to Bud Light. The only way out is to starve them out. Pay for nothing that isn't new and original- that isn't full of "woke" (anti-family, pro-Communist) b.s. Invest in old IP that is pure and good.

Read a book! Pay the authors and writers who don't sell their souls because they aren't talentless bums. Buy their books! Subscribe to their website, newsletter, socials... It's the writers that can save tv, movies and pop culture, but you have to start seeking them out actively and start dismissing the bad ones.

Before you watch anything look up the writers. Before you pay to see a film or tv show sub, look up the writers, producers, etc. Stop supporting them blindly because the trailer looks good. [Of course the trailer looks good.]

As a struggling writer, please, I beg you, stop financially supporting industry propaganda slop writers who inject themselves into your homes uninvited- and have done so for over 100 years.

Relentless optimism and no fear are how I beat my demons

@luxmendax She's smart

[Vulpraxis @vulpraxis]

@luxmendax @KianErfaan Those are incredibly cool

At one point I had a Ford Probe. I thought that car was hilarious

[Vulpraxis @vulpraxis]

@teej_dv I've actually never done this but it's been very close!

[Sky @_sky_sorensen_]

The word “entitled” isn’t used very often in revelation.

Pretty strong word to describe what family situation children deserve in life.

You rise or fall to the level of your systems

I'm fairly convinced that if magically gave everyone a six pack and healthy body within 6 months those who were already in shape would keep it and most of those who weren't would be fat again.

It's not about genetics. It's about standards.

@p0lar_fawn Agreed. It's one of the more beautiful things about life.

I wonder if all beauty is birthed by love
