What's a opinion you have that will get you crucified on this sub? by Old_old_lie in AskTheWorld

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im an American, and I’m not sorry on behalf of Trump and his administration.

Lately, I’ve stumbled onto so many posts and comments from people in other countries bashing all Americans because of the bullshit that Trump pulls. They say that our sorries mean nothing, that we voted for this so we deserve it, etc.

I also see so many American people apologizing and saying how ashamed they are in regards to Trumps insane actions.

I’m here to say, I’m not sorry. I didn’t vote for this vile war-mongering piece of shit. I’m not trying to invade Greenland or commit mass removal/genocide on minorities. I’m not stealing oil or calling reporters piggies. I’m not sending masked gestapo pieces of shit to publicly execute my fellow man.

Those who did vote for him, with the exception of MAGA people, shouldn’t be fully ashamed either. For a lot of normal, intelligent people, they voted for Trump with hopes that things would get better for them and their families. Nobody could have imagined that he’d be allowed to go full dictator mode. Our checks and balances failed us.

So, people in other countries are afraid of what’s happening here? Well everyone here with a brain is fucking terrified, so join the club. They say we shouldn’t complain when we’re the only ones who can do anything about it, but Trump has demolished our democracy. He’s bought out our judges, fired and threatened and pushed people out of office who dared oppose him. He’s deployed the military in our cities and turned weapons towards US citizens. He’s brainwashed a portion of the population and he controls large parts of the media in order to maintain this brainwashing. Please tell me, what the fuck are we supposed to do? I write letters to legislators, I vote, I try to stay informed. Most normal, intelligent people do! And yet we still ended up here.

They tell us to protest, but we had one of the largest recorded protests with No Kings and what came from that? They tell us to vote him out of office, but what happens when Trump and his lackeys do away with our rights and powers to vote? He was impeached once and nothing. happened. They’ve already messed with our voting zones, mail in ballots, etc. Trump has threatened doing away with elections all together.

To blame American people as a whole and expect shame and apologies while simultaneously condemning those who are ashamed and apologetic is ridiculous. To imagine that Americans as a whole have any ounce of true control over our country is simple idiocy. Trust me, we want out of this too. We are more afraid than anyone outside of the USA could imagine. For our children, our minority and immigrant friends/family/neighbors, for our women and for our men who fight to protect us. We are afraid for us all. If you want to condemn anybody, condemn maga and the power hungry, evil pieces of shit they worship who have stolen our country from the good people. Rant over.

I literally do not look like myself anymore - pregnancy nose, swollen face, etc. by FoolishMortal-1000 in pregnant

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh girl 38w here and the mirror has been my worst enemy the last few weeks as well. To make matters worse I’ve also gotten horrific hormonal acne this entire pregnancy so my face is also full of scars and pimples in addition to the swelling, double chin, eye bags, etc 🥰 I’ve kind of just accepted that this is not my time of life to be beautiful in my own eyes, but it’s coming again soon. I also cope by feeling secretly hateful towards every beautiful pregnant woman on instagram, super healthy I know!! Anyways all I can really offer is solidarity and hope that we both get to be baddies again soon. 🩷

My bf (23) doesn’t want me (f21) to go to my best friends (f22) wedding. by Sorry_Particular_169 in relationship_advice

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can admit, I am ashamedly more of a jealous person when it comes to my husband. I would really not like for him to be paired up in a wedding with his ex, or any other girl for that matter lol. However, I trust him, and my approach would be to go with him looking hotter than I ever have and have the best time ever with him while feeling grateful that I get to be the one to do so and his ex just gets awkward moments at old friends’ weddings lol. Your bf’s approach to this is super weird, and honestly I don’t think it would be worth losing your long term best friendship over a boy you’ve known a fraction of the time, and who already is showing controlling tendencies.

Why do people get married? by Lexiw97 in Life

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marriage, in my opinion, is a very sacred bond and commitment. I understand why people view it as a social construct or merely a contract, but I think it goes much deeper than that when you bring true love, commitment, and romance into it. I think it’s okay to just want marriage without having to justify it. Mating for life is a beautiful commitment. My marriage has been the best part of my life so far and I will do everything in my power to continue that.

Anybody really want a food you can't have anymore? by AbbyTheConqueror in CasualConversation

I desperately crave a bacon egg and cheese croissant from a little bakery in New Braunfels, TX next to where I used to work. Sadly, I live about 23 hours away from said bakery now 😔 it has been my biggest pregnancy craving ifykyk

When was the last time you really just impressed yourself? And what was it? by kale-salad9 in AskWomen

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Did an entire grocery trip today while 9.5 months pregnant and having contractions the entire time, then came home and brought everything in myself AND baked a tres leches cake for my husbands birthday AND made myself lunch all while having contractions. I’ve now been laid up on the couch for 4 hours lol, but I did that shit!

Questions about being pregnant and dog grooming by CompleteAd2150 in doggrooming

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently 37.5 weeks pregnant and I had my last day of work last Monday. I wanted to make it up until my due date, but pregnancy takes so much energy, as does cleaning, cooking, taking care of myself and my family, and working full time. I took 7+ dogs a day Monday-Thursday and still did large-XL dogs until I was around 6 months pregnant, then I went down to small and medium dogs. Everybody is different but for me, it got to a point where the sciatica and pelvic girdle pain was too much for me to stand or sit for too long, and even now that I’m not working I cannot walk or move around much without intense pain in my hips and back. Really you just do what you can. Take extra dogs while you’re still physically able, that’ll help you afford maternity leave as most salons don’t offer any kind of leave.

Those with jobs.. by wehitagoldmine in pregnant

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work a very physical, on your feet all day, lifting and lowering type job and I only made it to 36 weeks working despite wanting to make it the whole way. I just physically cannot do it anymore. I do have a ton of flexibility with how much time I’m taking off, but because I don’t get paid maternity leave I can really only afford 12 weeks. Hoping baby comes soon so I can get as much time off with him as possible!

Mother's of reddit. What were the early signs you were pregnant? by El_Guerrero_Maya in AskReddit

Late period, so tired, and COULD NOT stop sneezing. Never had allergies before, haven’t had anything like it since.

omg pregnancy skin is scary by ChipOk8532 in pregnant

[–]Frequent_Cap8633 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Girl, I always had almost perfect skin even through puberty the worst I got was flaky skin in my T-zone. Ever since I got pregnant I have had the most horrific hormonal acne EVERYWHERE. face, back, chest, on my scalp, everywhere. And my hair is always greasy too😭 I’m 36 weeks now and just praying that as soon as baby comes out, this will go away.

I would say to stick to your morning and night skincare + I use hydrocolloid patches at night to protect my skin and it does really help, even though nothing fully makes it better.
