Why are you obsessed with our genitalia? It’s weird. by rhodesleadnowhere in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]RaccoonRelay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. So much time spent thinking about other peoples genitals. And then calling them perverts because the only thing you associate with them is the sexual lenses you are looking through obsessively. This stuff is a cancer

All women have the inherent desire to be a mother; if you disagree, you're a demented moralist. by Snoo_21296 in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]RaccoonRelay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why people think a reluctant mother is a “better” or “healthier” human that someone who clearly says “pass, not thank you”. Like the societal harm in insisting that you would change your mind is you could end up parenting a child and you clearly don’t want to. I think people are mad you have disposable income lol

Kid with non-verbal autism says "I love you" for the first time by Svargas05 in MadeMeSmile

It’s okay to mourn the loss of that or even be sad about it. It doesn’t make you a bad mom or love them any less. I have been through a dozen emotions about the mom I thought I would be to a child who doesn’t exist. Luckily, like you, I really like the ones I got ♥️

I’m not celebrating but I am glad to see the acknowledgement that we have had enough. I don’t think we are going to stop here. I do think we need to remove republicans (and some democrats) and completely rebuild or we will fall like rome.

Same. That touched a part of my heart I have strictly locked up for survival.

I’ve only heard my daughter tell me she loves me a half a dozen times. When she learned to write she left me a hundred notes, everywhere. All of them said I love you. This shit it pure love and I’m crying for this mom. I’m so glad she got to capture this.

A false start, even one that is performative is in the direction of change. I have no solutions. Do you? Not like hostile, like do you have any ideas?

It’s the equal opposite pushback on weed prohibition. You’re right about the pendulum for sure, but as pendulums do, it should settle to moderation eventually

I’m excellent with a gun and I was raised by hunters.

I also saw a blue heron today on a walk with my dog (gun alternative). I watched my kid pick up garbage that wasn’t theirs on the way into school. I helped an elder with their bags at the store even though they had a trump sticker on their truck (they have been sold fear. It’s not hopeless) it’s not all bad. It can be so much better

I’m going to go touch grass (unironically)

I usually get my news through the BBC lately, I absolutely see the global atrocities. I am glad my daughter has access to an education and life but I also think it’s ridiculous that my teenager is in therapy from panic attacks that started in first grade active shooter drills.

My sister literally just texted me and told me to stop watching the news, it’s probably a good call

I am going to take my kids for ice cream (nervous) but I’ll pretend extra hard that I’m not terrified. I’m still grateful I am not in Palestine. I am still terrified for my fellow human souls in Ukraine. All these things are true and unnecessary and at the mercy of a handful of the most powerful humans.

I’m not letting it stop me from going to those places with my family but it’s giving me an ulcer and anxiety

I’m starting to stay home like Covid quarantine almost. Even picking my kids up at school at the end of the day I am scanning the parking lot for angry violent humans with guns. It’s horrible and I wouldn’t blame you for avoiding all crowded places. I tried to take my kids to what I thought was a farmers market in our downtown and it was a second amendment rally. A hostile one when they heard me tell my kids we couldn’t go down to the booths. Like … the fuck are we supposed to do? Schools, Church, stores, clubs, libraries, malls … no where is safe and it’s not paranoia. I hope you stay safe. I hope we all do.

It feels like basic decency to check your own vibe before you try to enter a community. It’s astounding how some people show up in queer spaces.

Honestly, I don’t know very much about her except she’s been on this sub a LOT in the last year or so. That’s a good way to say it! she’s behaving like a lecherous “cis man”

Wonder what was on the Homeschool agenda for this week??? Guess it wasn’t Speech therapy😠 by Familiar-Zebra936 in fellowshipofthebib

[–]RaccoonRelay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Literally NO ONE in the autism community discredits the importance of echolalia. It’s clearly very important communication. It’s non verbal, she can obviously speak. Non verbal also acknowledges that speaking isn’t the only way to communicate. She’s full of it

How much trouble will Harold be in when his wife goes beserk about his Coronation faces? by MolVol in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]RaccoonRelay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think Harold’s anger is mainly (not entirely) focused on the suits behind the palace. The men in grey. The comms teams. I made my way through the audiobook of spare so I could hear him read it (since he didn’t write most of it) to see how he actually felt about pieces and he’s spitting angry when he talks about the suits. He sounds like he’s fluffed up like an alleycat. They didn’t protect Megan, they wouldn’t give Archie security, they wouldn’t dispute the tabloids, they wouldn’t let Meghan bully staff on and on. Obviously he hates his brother and Catherine and the king and queen but it seems like his center focus is the admin

It’s a big jump from here to banning all assault rifles. It’s gonna be small steps but this is in the right direction. It’s something. It’s not thoughts and prayers, right?
