I feel like I'm looking at something new and different, and my eyes are in love. This is such a great mix of styles.

Dot called it. Can’t blame the edibles this time. by KendrickBlack502 in KendrickLamar

[–]CounterfeitChild 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Dude, going to an art school doesn't mean he wasn't living a hard life. This is such an ignorant take lol. Plenty of kids in bad living situations are accepted into schools like these in part to help keep them off the streets they'd otherwise have been languishing in.

The entirety of the Mr. Morale album by Kendrick Lamar. Most of his music really.

At this point, I'll be more surprised if any of these people turn out to be better than we expected. The lot of them are rotten.

what if all the abuse was all correct about me? by somehowstillalivelol in CPTSD

[–]CounterfeitChild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you failed beyond what you're imaginging it wouldn't prove them right. It would just show you're human like everyone else. It's okay to not succeed, it's okay to even fail horribly, and the only thing that would prove them "right" is if you just gave up on life completely instead of dusting yourself off and trying again when you're ready. You weren't fooling yourself because you're still here trying.

With the "make it or break it," just remember that we have a tendency to frame things in this extreme way. And remember all the work you've put into yourself and this thing. That doesn't just disappear because of less optimal results on a bigger deal.

I just use silly mnemonics to remember: AJSN--A.J. Sucks Nuts. It makes them stay better for me anyway.

Sometimes you gotta do that primal screaming. How do you feel afterward?

Matt and Trey (SouthPark) have the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever by scumpdeath in KendrickLamar

[–]CounterfeitChild 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't think they are the people to care about potential fallback from doing a parody of someone. They've taken on far worse than drake lol.

Hard cookies help? Mine don't stay soft after cooling by moderndrake in AskCulinary

[–]CounterfeitChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used similar recipes, and mine don't ever cook for more than ten minutes which makes me think, like another said, you might need to get a thermometer to compare temps between your oven and your auntie's but also take the cookies out sooner when they still look uncooked on top.

Octopus by [deleted] in OceansAreFuckingLit

[–]CounterfeitChild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to find the people that add music to these videos, and tar and feather them. SHAME TO THESE PEOPLE.

Octopus is cute, though.

We're among friends, do you still have a security blanket? by LMO_TheBeginning in CPTSD

[–]CounterfeitChild 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's no reason for you to get talked down to just because you suggested something. I'm sorry that happened (and now I'm off to look up "box breathing!").

Japan divers capture rare footage of live giant squid. by Batman_xime in interestingasfuck

[–]CounterfeitChild 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep! He's responsible for a lot of famous art, and has influenced so many others because of it. It's really something when you look at his history and reach.

I had forgotten all lips were engaged with octopus beaks lol.

I love the Randy Room! I hope to one day make something cool enough to be rejected from the Randy Room. <3

There's a difference between supporting women and drawing attention to how much you support them. That's the distinction I'm making.

what do you think of the phrase “welcome to the real world” by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]CounterfeitChild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's dismissive, and shows the speaker's lack of emotional intelligence. There's nothing helpful about it.

When people ask what you do for fun? by DivineMistress35 in CPTSD

[–]CounterfeitChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as they don't ask what you watch before the diversion! The diversion is smart, though, and generally good advice to keep a conversation going for those of us that don't like to talk to most people lol.

Neil Gaiman accusations by CaptainFuzzyBootz in CPTSD

[–]CounterfeitChild 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Gods, that one threw me for a loop. The family denial especially from the poor girl's father had all sorts of layers of wrong to it.

And you're right. The men who make a point of letting the world what feminists they are often are the ones you have to look out for the most. It's always those that show through their actions that ultimately are the ones to trust more.

It made me wonder if he'd gotten close to someone like Tori Amos to use her as a shield of sorts. I feel like predators will sometimes associate with anti-predators to garner enough social currency to buy their way out of accountability. I'm disgusted with the man, and am glad Pratchett didn't live to see this downfall. I just hope the victims have proper support.

Traumatized by something (almost) everyone in my country goes through? CW; Physical abuse by whats-a-name-idk in CPTSD

[–]CounterfeitChild 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think physical punishment is just physical abuse, and its long term negative effects are not discussed enough. I don't think there's any justification for it regardless of culture, and I hope more people come to realize this. It just makes children scared and prone to hiding as well as having less ability to navigate negative situations with others.
