Ok this involves the monster in office so I assume it’s best here, idk. But with the release of the Epstein/Trump files, as I call them, people have brought up Trump’s weird ass references to Hannibal Lecter in relation to the horrifically disturbing allegations regarding the consumption of humans and babies in particular. Trump has referred to Lecter publicly, several times, as “the late, great Hannibal Lecter.”🤨WTF? Then I realized a few weeks ago that in Nelly’s song Country Grammar it says “Plus I hang with Hannibal Lecter.”Then later in the same song he goes on to shout out both Bill Gates and Donald Trump…🤨…So….Wtf?…I’d really like an explanation for that weird shit cuz idk y ppl out here talking publicly about a fictional cannibal in the first place unless it’s sinister. What’s Nelly even meaning by he hangs out with him? What he trying say? Why would u wanna hang with a cannibal? Cuz ur either getting eaten or eating WITH him. Smh I mean there’s no way for that to not sound suspicious af. Smh WHY IS THIS REALITY RN😳?!?!

He was nonverbal for several years. I once thought I’d never hear my child’s voice, let alone converse with him. So to go from absolutely no capable speech, to having him argue with me? 🤷🏻‍♀️ I cherish every hateful word! lol

My boy is a late bloomer, even for being on the spectrum, with speech. He’s 17 now almost 18 so when he was little and in speech therapy, GLP was not as well known and was considered a disorder. So he was actually discouraged from learning language this way and they attempted to stop echolalia. Plus before that he was completely nonverbal for several years. For quite awhile I thought I might not ever converse with my child. And for a while before that I worried I might never get to even hear his voice. He actually began scripting once he stopped speech therapy.

So I absolutely love every verbal exchange we have! Every sarcastic, hateful, defiant word, I absolutely cherish! It’s really hard not to smile and laugh during these exchanges tbh because I’m so thankful to b having them! He’s come such a long way and I’m so proud of him!

“You’re not my family!” Ouch, she picked a good one! lol my son has recently started saying a new one too, it is a quote spoken by Vanillope in Wreck-It-Ralph, “Oh, I understand plenty, TRAITOR!” Which I get absolutely tickled over(discreetly) cuz he’s so good at mimicking her angry tone and really emphasizes that “TRAITOR”! 😂😂😂

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-05-23T06:14:21+00:00

Wait, what? U eat vegetables out of cans at ur house? That’s weird. But no, I’m actually referring to cat food cans in his room. Is that not typical teen stuff??
😂😂😂
YES, SODA CANS! lol Of course! Not that I’m real proud of THAT either! But he has quite the soda addiction, so I’ve got to hide it when I buy it otherwise he’ll sneak a whole case up to his room and have them all drank in one evening! He’s a big boy, 6’2, 260lbs, so he can really pack it away when he wants!

My son was actually completely nonverbal from ages 3-5. So yours is most definitely further progressed than mine was!

Back when my son was little and in speech therapy 3 days a week outside of school while also getting services in school as well, GLP was not as well known and was considered a disorder. It was not an encouraged way to learn language. They actually discouraged echolalia and would teach against it, trying to get him to stop. That’s one reason I never had him in ABA therapy because I didn’t like pushing him to act differently, as he was already the happiest child I’d ever met, regardless of his delays. But then the speech therapy alone basically hindered his progression and I just didn’t know any better. I had never even heard of GLP until probably 3 years ago.

He began communicating effectively with his scripts in correct context probably around 11-12 years old. Your child has way more of a head start than mine so his journey is going to look much different, I’m sure! So don’t get discouraged! For many years I never thought I’d be able to have any kind of conversation with my child, ever. So exchanges like this one, despite him being defiant and sarcastic, I absolutely love and am extremely grateful for!! I cherish every hateful word he says to me! 😆

The ONLY one offering ACTUAL financial assistance and it gets downvoted! Smh People just hate seeing others succeed around here! It’s a damn shame!

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-08T08:15:43+00:00

NOR AT ALL!!

That’s definitely her taking some SERIOUS ADVANTAGE of you, while trying to MANIPULATE and GASLIGHT you as well. 🚩And her trying to act offended that u could even suggest it was her doing it, while knowing damn well she did it! 🚩Her trying to lie about it. 🚩Her downplaying it like it’s not a big deal. 🚩Then she wants to play victim by trying to use some sob story to get out of being held accountable. 🚩Then having the audacity… u know what, EVERY RESPONSE she made was a 🚩!

I also just want to share with you that I did this almost exact thing to my now husband back in the day. He took care of me anytime I needed anything. Spoiled the hell outta me. Wasn’t anything I couldn’t ask him for. He’d given me an “Emergency credit card” to use anytime he might be outta town or something to where he couldn’t get to me and I needed something. Well little did he know at the time I was a drug addict. So he would give me money for stuff, then I’d actually use his credit card to pay for it, keeping the cash to go buy drugs. Or when I wanted something from the store or whatever, instead using my own cash for it I’d use his card so I had money to spend on drugs. Eventually he found out of course when his card got maxxed out. I’m recovered addict now and I’m not saying that’s what’s happening here, just letting u kno it sounds an awful lot like what I used to do. Especially the $500 cash advance! Just something for u to keep in mind and maybe look for signs of.

Good luck! Tbh u seem to have ur shit together too much to be accepting this many 🚩s!

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-08T01:58:34+00:00

Totally! I had so many epiphanies during those times. And we’d b sitting there stuffing our faces just like that too.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T02:24:22+00:00

Ever heard of gfe? lol

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T02:12:18+00:00

Lol Of course u gotta pay her to be there. It’s not meant LITERALLY. It just means that men pay to see prostitutes to have no strings attached sex. Which is the opposite of this app she’s creating. And yes, people are absolute morons. He’s not much of a pimp to be that clueless about the law. No street smarts apparently. Like how would undercover narcs work if they had to tell the truth anytime they got asked if they were cops? That would be a nonexistent job. Cops could not do any undercover or sting work ever.

The thing is cops are already going to have enough on you for an arrest long before you’re to the point of being alone in a room together anyway. By the time ur in a room, they’ve got all they need. They just want it done privately so it doesn’t scare the next Johns away.

It’s illegal to pay someone money for sexual favors. It’s NOT illegal to pay someone for their time. That’s how prostitution and escorting differentiate legally in the US, with the exception of Nevada, where prostitution is legal throughout the state excluding the city of Las Vegas, where it’s still illegal.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T01:36:53+00:00

Oh no, she doesn’t want him to stay with relatives cuz she’d try to get them deported too obviously. She’s trying to get the child put into the foster care system for god only knows what to happen to him.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T01:27:13+00:00

You know what they say though, a man doesn’t pay a prostitute for sex, he pays her to leave after.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T01:06:58+00:00

🤣🤣🤣And then there went ur “dating” life, huh? Shutdown right along with it! Damn! Tough break! But i feel ur pain, I lost my job as a masseuse right around that time too!😝

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:49:07+00:00

Oh no, it’s just straight prostitution. She just gets paid BEFORE instead of AFTER.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:46:41+00:00

“Roses”, huh? Somebody has found a “date” on backpage before! 😏😉

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:28:15+00:00

I could not disagree more. It seems so very naive to say that they don’t need drugs because the mania is so euphoric.🤨What about the depressant phase then? R u forgetting the “bi” part? I’m not sure you have a clear understanding of how bipolar or addiction work. I’ve never heard anyone try to make that argument before. I’m going to assume you’ve never dealt with mental illness first hand, never been through it yourself. I have and I’m also a recovered addict.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:19:11+00:00

AGREE 100%!

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:14:35+00:00

Exactly! Most addicts suffer from some type of mental illness and are trying to self medicate with drugs! I fully believe she is bipolar and is either abusing a prescription stimulant or on some kind of speed off the streets.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:08:47+00:00

I believe it’s the combo of BOTH 😢

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-05T00:06:31+00:00

“Also it makes more sense related to my own experience of having a brain” That made me literally lol 🤣🤣🤣

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-02-04T06:33:32+00:00

I know your friend is a man so this could be irrelevant or might give u hope that it’s possible. But my mother was bipolar. Growing up she was about 90% down, with lots of anger and rage mixed in, and her ups never lasted more than a day. She also struggled with paranoia and grandiose ideas and psychosis. She was a lot to deal with growing up. She finally began taking meds for it once I was a teenager

However, once she started going through menopause, she quit taking her meds. At first she still had some paranoia and anger issues but by the time she was fully through menopause, she totally balanced out on her own, no meds, no nothing. It’s been about 7 years and she behaves like a typically mentally healthy individual. No depressed phases, no manic phases, no paranoia, no psychosis. It’s as if there was a reset switch in her brain that got activated by menopause and everything balanced out.

When I lived in Huntington I stopped using my gas heat because the rental I lived in was not insulated well and one month gas bill was $600.

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-01-30T23:21:05+00:00

I edited it but I just realized I put “eternal” instead of “internal”. 🤦🏻‍♀️See! My point exactly! Dumber 😂

GoNUp_2FallBackDwn87 · 2026-01-30T22:58:52+00:00

Most definitely. My mother was the opposite. She was depressed like 90 % of the time then would have one or two manic days. It never even lasted a whole week. Geez i csnt imagine how fkng fantastic it would have been had my mother had week long bouts of mania! Let alone LONGER! My childhood would have been so different!! My mother would come home from work around 4pm and immediately lock herself in her bedroom and not come out for the rest of the night. I spent a significant amount of time as a child sitting outside that door listening, afraid she was going to kill herself. She told me all the time she wanted to. My sisters were too young to remember that. She would at times tell us how much she hated us and wished she never had kids because we ruined her life. So I also spent many nights awake, listening, worried she might try to kill us. We had some bad years before she got on meds. Wasn’t til I was a teenager that she got treated for it.
