Hey y'all, would you mind sending me a hug? It's my birthday, and it's a really hard day. I'm triggered and depressed, and life feels really empty and meaningless.

Something people don't usually warn you about: the pain of when your elderly parent can no longer remember your age or birthdate.

Apparently being poor means doing many of the recommended things to decrease carbon footprint in order to save money. Do I buy clothes and other items used? ✔️Don't drive much?✔️ Keep your space cold? ✔️ Wash clothing in cold water?✔️Don't use AC in your car ✔️(mine is broken)

Some atheists are every bit the fundamentalists that fundamentalist Christians are.

The absolutely fantastic thing is that I'm now on food stamps (SNAP) and have enough money for food. The less fantastic thing is that I'm having a hard time spending it, and my brain keeps yelling at me that I don't deserve nice food that I like.

Well, y'all, after over five years, I finally did it; I left my therapist speechless.
Turns out, it is weird that my father started giving me talks about not being tricked into playing Russian Roulette when I was a wee elementary schooler.

When you're talking on the phone with someone, please don't transfer them to someone else without telling them that you are transferring them and who you are transferring them to.
The number of times I had government employees do this to me today was ridiculous...and confusing.

Vent: as a little kid, I was often treated with the most tenderness and kindness when I had the flu. My dad (who was a horrible person often), would keep the fire hot so I wasnt too cold with my fever, and he'd go to store and buy foods and drinks that were easy on the stomach

I got a lot of physical affection. It was the most loved I felt by my parents ever. And right now I have a fever and am very emotional, and I just want that love. I want them to take care of me, and I want to matter.

It's like the lack of love and safety I felt most of the time is just seeping out of my pores right now for some reason. I'm desperate for the love of my parents.

Scary stories...a list of men in my young life who should have gone to prison... ya know.
People perceived as girls and women are scared for good reason.

"Not every single woman has a scary story about a man" Yes they do. I promise you that they do.

Oh no, I'm sick. And my immune system is compromised from chronic illness and suppressed to treat other chronic illnesses. I can't take my immunosupressents while I'm sick, so I'm gonna be in so much pain. Also, I'm diabetic and my sugars are freaking cause I can't keep food down

My abuser has been dead for 5.5 years, and people in my family are still siding with him against me. Against the person who has debilitating PTSD and an ED from his abuse.
I think my family is built around protecting abusers.

Tw: SA, trafficking
I think I now understand why my nephew hasn't talked to me in a year.
I was also horrified to see my nephew say he wants to be like the man who SA'd me for 20 years and trafficked me. Nephew doesn't know about this, but I'm scared he has such a role model.

Some of y'all are acting like a POTUS candidate having a wishy-washy take on genocide is okay and should just be respected. People should be mad about Harris' position, and while I agree she's the best option available for the US (and Palestine), critique, even fury, is justified

Right now, Harris is telling us a lot about how she views power, and I, for one, have mixed feelings about what she's telling us.
She is a candidate and ELECTED leader; her response at the rally was munipulatuve at best because it isn't voters' jobs to serve her.

but it is a misapplication of her power to turn her response to people protesting actual genocide into a way of making supporters responsible for her outcomes, especially since the popular vote often doesn't elect the president anyway.

It also sets up the idea that criticizing Harris is betrayal of the cause, and that is SCARY, especially since if she's going to be president, she's going to have power that is nearly unchecked by law in some arenas. She must be checked by constituents then.
