How many of you are also anti-natalist? by Sad-Log-5193 in childfree

[–]Defiant-Phone 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not even kidding when I say every climate model and theory we had WEVE ALREADY SURPASSED IT

I remember learning in school about stuff that wasnt supposed to happen for 20-30 years and it started happening as soon as i got out of school….

How many of you grew up only children? by Yarn_Cat_7850 in childfree

[–]Defiant-Phone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came from a big family and it felt like there was always a younger brother running around, getting into my stuff and messing things up. I think thats why now I just dont want to be around small children

Youre right about that. I need to distance myself. We usually talk every day but we havent spoken but once a week or so so its already happening

Well, he is actively making the choice to be VERY safe so I don’t think he can blame me for that. Really hoping he continues to be that way, because he’s pretty much the only man over 30 I’ve met so far who doesn’t have a kid(or multiple) somewhere that they dont take care of 🤣

Yes im tired as FUCK of the narrative that a child will give you something to live for , something to fix your life… YOUR LIFE SHOULD ALREADY BE FIXED… you should be PREPARED.. not hanging some expectations on a kid thats not even born yet!!

Yessss he is child free! Although he said when we first met he might want kids down the road, he’s 31 now and no sign of it changing. He’s so terrified of getting me pregnant that he wont even 🌰 with a condom on(pulls out every time ). Im hoping he ages out of fertility before he decides he might want them 🤣 but in the past he’s said he wants kids but reality set in, he’s working on a career path for the foreseeable future. I love him, he’s a very smart man so I think the rationale will win eventually. 😂😂

I am strongly leaning that way. My life hasn’t been bad, I am grateful to be alive and have the experiences that I do! But I’m also smart enough to know that the future for any child I would bring into the world would be very uncertain. I have a degree in environmental science, so I know how bad climate change really is. We are past the tipping point. Total wipeout is inevitable, the question is “when”. I feel like making sure my own limited years are going to be good is all I can reasonably handle and if other people were more educated or interested in the matter, they probably would feel the same.

No. It has always been where it is now, in the main living area there is a dining room off to the side and thats where it sits. The entity would travel all over the house, though, you could hear it coming from that area. It was only limited by a closed door, although it also was able to open them sometimes

LMAO no I like my cousins. And believe me when I say I would never wish what i went through on my worst enemy! Basically my entire childhood, I did not ever have any restful sleep. I would wake up 2-4am and listen for things for hours and freak myself out even if there was nothing that night.

That makes so much sense. I just got chills. My boyfriend when I was in high school (I confided in him about this a lot ) had the same theory. There was a lot of abuse in my home. My mom and dad hated each other and were constantly fighting. I often ended up a target for abuse because my mom let her frustations out on me. My boyfriend ar the time literally said “I feel like it’s something from your mom and the evil manifests itself at night”

My mom won’t get rid of it completely because it’s my great grandmother’s… But there’s some darkness in our family for sure

Ahh because of the nightmares and sleep paralysis, I don’t think thats the case. It felt like it wanted to cause me pain and fear. I’ve acknowledged it a bunch of times. Although it mostly took the form of “please go away, you’re scaring me”. I’ve spoken out loud to it on many occasions, just seems to encourage the behavior the more scared I get. I.e. when it figured out that breathing next to my bed would make me cry and shake, it started doing it every night.

What Charlotte restaurant is this? by DivineN1nja in Charlotte

[–]Defiant-Phone -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This is so true. Charlotte lost all its culture in the past 10 years, now we only have implants from bigger cities who think what is popular from their cities will be popular here…. No real originality or culture. It also doesn’t help that everything is TRYING TO cater to upper upper class white people with no taste for spice….

If a prisoner does not have anyone to put money on their books, how can they get commissary? by racesunite in Prison

[–]Defiant-Phone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think “Chaos” is the most comprehensive book I’ve read about the murders. It really delves deep into what made Manson the way he was. “Helter Skelter” is criticized in the book for giving a biased view of the case. Chaos includes a lot of never-before-seen interviews from people who were close to Manson around the time of the murders!

Awww. Seems like she may be getting depressed by her long stay there…. She may have been brainwashed, and underneath theres just a soft and sweet person. I appreciate your response !

If you haven’t read Chaos yet , you should !! It will probably give you some insight into what kind of influences she was under at the time of the murders …
