The fourth factor is probably actually how poorly women are treated by doctors/ western medicine. Once all that is exposed and validated, these families are throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Easy to convince someone that doctors don’t care what’s best for them after several doctors mistreat them.
My husband is blue collar. He goes where things need to be fixed. Sometimes his commute is 15 minutes, but it’s often 2 hours, when you factor in distance and traffic. A lot of blue collar deals with this, and yeah. We choose that shit over being homeless. His tech field laid him and everyone else off a few years ago.
Probably an old friend reaching out and saying I miss you. That someone would have me on their mind enough to reach out would be validating. Ever since I had a child I don’t have the resources to pursue my own friendships anymore, but In a few years when the kids are a bit older, I hope to get back to having friends.
Yes, when I ask my toddler for space or privacy in the bathroom they often come right up and hug my leg. Like a cat but much more invasive lol
I mean tailor it or get a thicker padded bra. Small tiddie people don’t own cutlets for no reason. Stuff that top till it looks like you want it
But they also don’t know the not of rewatching a series for (kind of) the first time again, or rereading a book and getting surprises in it.
They probably get to drink their coffee while it’s still warm and don’t have to set 15 alarms starting a few days before in order to make it to a doctor’s appointment on time.
Ooh, I can make a little rumble thunder happen if I do that! But why would anyone want to? And weirdly, just yawning doesn’t really do it, but squeezing the eyes while yawning does. Huh.
I hear what you’re saying about staying away from shitty people, but anyone can lie about who they are short term, and when women are wary of all men in order to stay safe, we get hit with “not all men.” It’s a real lose-lose.
If withholding lifesaving care is murder, everyone who hasn’t donated a kidney is a murderer. Everyone who didn’t donate blood this month is a murderer. Everyone who isn’t an organ donor is a murderer.
No one getting an abortion is a murderer, they’re just not agreeing to share all of their organs with another person for almost a year.
So yeah, I just don’t understand their position. They don’t call withholding medical care by sharing organs murder in any other context.
Right but imagine that 10 year old has the ability and permission to beat you to feel powerful. That he’s wearing the patch specifically to scare you. That is scary. Psychopaths are scary, and the fact that they don’t feel the need to be professional enough to not wear these patches that mean I am here because I want to kill you is scary, whether the patch design is moronic or not.
Yeah, I love the clones, it’s like bonus levels
I was thinking about letting a cis girl get breast augmentation in my comment, so i wasn’t really worried about her being disappointed, more that her motivation for body modification is bullying. Kids are really mean, and unformed brains (and formed ones!) Have a hard time seeing past that into even just 4 years in the future.
I don’t think I understand your comment though, people can have whatever tits they want at 21? I’m talking about 15 year olds.
Yeah, it’s nuts. I’m one of 15 grand kids, and me and my 3 sisters are the only ones who do anything for her. No one’s doing well enough to really help, so asking just feels like I’ll lose the relationships and still not get any help. There’s definitely resentment building though
My brother has been off his medication while unemployed / interviewing / first 90 days of his new job until his insurance kicks in. Breaks my heart to hear him describe how hard it is to know he’s intelligent, but everyone at his new job genuinely believes he’s dumb. Kid has an IQ of 141, but without ADHD meds is barely scraping by at his office.
I’m sure this is an inappropriate question, but out of curiosity, are you a man or a woman?
I’m just always curious with this because women are typically diagnosed later or not at all because women figure out masking earlier and better.
I wonder if it’s purely self preservation on the part of women or if women are more explicit in social rules with one another?
I quit for about a year and a half and by the end just thought I was stupid due to aging/ motherhood. Then one day I accidentally consumed like 2 cups worth (migraine meds have a ton of caffeine!) And I was a super hero that day. I got so much done! I could actually do puzzles again! My brain worked! Then I checked the medicine bottle and was like… oh.
Anyway, I’m diagnosed with ADHD now and realized I’ve been self medicating with caffeine since high school. I’ll never go off it again unless I get actually medicated. I also drink a ton of decaf because I just love drinking coffee
They are. But what’s the alternative? The elderly person who doesn’t know who you are dies their slow, maybe 10 year death in your living room when you don’t have the support you need to care for them? It’s either awful for the elderly person or awful for everyone.
Source: we can’t stomach putting granny in one of those so she lives with us, and I wipe her butt every day. I feel suicidal, and she feels… idk. Because the dementia is too bad for her to really tell me. We can’t put her in one because we know she’ll be abused, but I genuinely can’t and don’t judge anyone who drops their family member off and walks away.
Yeah this game is definitely better if you’re totally burned out/ depressed, cause then the handholding is kind of nice. Plus the main island is kind of sandboxy to create your real home/ base since you basically have very little autonomy in the main quests, and you don’t get that in the first one. I feel like my whole life is so many decisions and I’m too tired to actually do hobbies or game, but I can do a cute game like builders with no brain, just mindless fun.
I feel the same way that it’s like if Minecraft came with a Lego manual and all you’re doing is following it.
Do you like Lego? Do you like following a kit, or do you want to build how you want without instructions?
Four weeks is still way better than average if you’re in the US
