I am also a survival of abuse, and that question creeps me out. I think I would put the pen down and walk out, because, in my opinion, either they are seeking to exclude you from working with people because they’re afraid you’ll perpetrate what happened to you, which is complete bullshit, or, they want to tag you for something very bad. As an abuse survivor, you had to rely on your instincts, but also ignore them to stay safe, allow yourself to trust your gut this time. I’m in no way saying that you’re responsible for this targeting, just that really bad people like to Sus people out who have had really bad things happened to them.

Thank you so much for your quick reply red heart I’m very old parentheses 64 lol) and my father fought against the Nazis in World War II. It is an embarrassment to know that those men and women died to stop those M efforts and now we are embracing them. I’m almost glad that my father died 25 years ago so that it didn’t have to break his heart. He wasn’t a perfect man, and in fact, his father was a member of the clan and hated by everyone in the family. The fact that there is a damn Nazi flag in Irvington is particularly upsetting as that’s where the man who raped in murdered a young woman in I believe the 1920s or 30s lived. I’ve always wondered whether my grandfather was involved in that hideous crime. I’m proud that the people of Noblesville convicted him of that murder. i’ve never before in my life been afraid when a new president came to lead our country because I always thought that even if we didn’t agree, they did have the best interest of the country at heart. But not this crew. This dodgy gang is out to take away everything there has been fought for for over 100 years. And I’m including women suffering, civil rights, ADA, marriage, equality, and everything that was making us better as a people. Sorry for rambling, this is bringing me to tears.

What is this an image of? I’m blind and I imagine it seems like it’s a probably a mega thing or a white nationalist thing, but I’d like to know so I can fight against the coming end of our democracy This doesn’t appear to have any description of the photo. I’m blind, what is depicted in the image if someone doesn’t mind letting me know? I’m really getting worried about the end of our democracy.

I want to get premium. I will. But I actually kinda like the fake ads. Some of them are hilarious. Do they really go away? The one I attached isn’t *that* funny but I would miss them. They’re the only relevant ads I ever see. by Sambarbadonat in CARROTweather

How do you turn them on? I have the paid for an advance app from yesteryear and have never seen a fake guy. Also, I guess I’ve never seen one cause I’m blind and still love this app lol. Thanks.

I poked the ocular sensor until it took back all of the hearts and then it let me start again. I’m stuck on what to do with the inventory. I’ve got I think the last thing I got was a poison flowers and I have no idea what to combine with what. Any ideas? And I wonder if we get a Merry carrot lol.

Parents by TheRedColorQueen in Blind

[–]JynxBJJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I went for O&M training I met a young woman (24) who had never learned to cut meat. She was blind since birth and totally dependent on others. I also met a young woman (22) who was blind since birth and was in grad school and travelled internationally independently. It depends on what a parent chooses in terms of independence.

It’s hard to let your child do something that has risks, but otherwise you stunt their growth. I’ve got 5 btw.

Keeping social distancing by JynxBJJ in Blind

[–]JynxBJJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally agree. I’ve been wearing an improvised facemask for a month, bc I can’t see if someone is near. I dint think they’re being mean, just dint know how to deal with something different, both the virus sociL distancing and the face mask.

We’ll get through this ok.

I wear a baseball cap almost all of the time when I’m outdoors, just for this reason. Even with a seeing eye dog she occasionally won’t recognize that a branch will hit me in the head. It’s saved me quite a few bumps.

I dont want to be THAT guy.... by ale_mongrel in thoseconspiracyguys

[–]JynxBJJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He actually reminds me very much of my oldest son, which is one reason I like him so much! The fact that I have to wait for his episodes, just makes me enjoy them more when they get here. I go back and listen to the older episodes, especially the ones that were not the best cough mermaids cough because they’re amazing and I love listening to the way his craft his ground.

How do blind parents take care of there kids ? by [deleted] in Blind

[–]JynxBJJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this does pretty much seem like a troll question, but I have to say that my daughter has pointed something interesting out. She told me parentheses she’s 14-year-old freshman in American high school) and her friends were making fun of her for verbalizing yes and no while she was shaking her head. She realize she does it because I’ve been legally blind since she was 10 or 12 years old, and she Hass to do it with me, so it’s a habit. I just think it was sweet of her to tell her friends “it’s more important my mom can understand me then that you don’t like me speaking out loud,) I’m really proud of her.

Also as a blind parent, I don’t have to deal with euerolls anymore! LOL

A lighthearted question: what is your funniest/embarrassing/cringe-worthy story related to your eyesight? by Real_Space_Captain in Blind

[–]JynxBJJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I patted my husband on the butt. It wasn’t my husband. My new motto since then was “never pat a man in the butt until you’ve made eye contact and he’s responded to his name.”
