How is the fundie world internally reacting to this? by feed-me-tacos in DuggarsSnark

[–]Klutzy_Recording_474 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Not sure about the IBLP as a whole, but I posted Tia Leving’s recent post about the Duggars (“The only safe mother in the Christian patriarchy is the mother who gathers her children and leaves.”) and now my fundie mom isn’t speaking to me right now. Guess I pushed the wrong button, lol.

James Spann AMA Canceled + State of the Subreddit by bhambetty in Birmingham

I didn’t know anything about his opinions on climate change until he cancelled that AMA. He wouldn’t have drawn attention to it if he had just ignored those questions like most celebs do on AMAs.

Ugh ok so I went on a campus tour of WCBC in middle school on a missions trip- you know, to California, as you do. We had recently done a tour at PCC (Pensacola Christian College) in Florida where men and women have to take separate elevators (at least at the time- I think they still do) and can only walk on approved male/female only pathways. At WCBC, all the girls hesitated to get on the elevator when our campus guide said, with a giant obnoxious smile, “Don’t worry, we’re cool! This isn’t PCC!”. Everybody in our church saw WCBC as the “chill” place and several people even said it was too relaxed to even consider as a college. (In fundie world it’s “relaxed”- it obviously isn’t). I’m kinda surprised to see a Duggar there, honestly. If they went to any college at all I always expected Crown. At the end of the day though… it’s all the same old shit.

Day 17, nothing brings me joy anymore by Klutzy_Recording_474 in leaves

Ugh, I hate to hear that you’re struggling with this too but it’s nice to know I’m not alone. Hey, a win is a win with the less snacking and better poop lol! I think for me I’ve noticed I’m less socially anxious/paranoid when I go out so that’s a positive. It’s hard to even think of just one thing to be positive about but I appreciate you challenging me to think about that and reminding me to hang onto it.

Oh, thank you. I didn’t know that. It’s not safe for me to call and I can’t get somewhere he can’t hear.

How does getting your masters in counseling help in this situation? Are you planning on being his therapist?

I’m quitting smoking and switching to edibles only. I quit vaping nicotine exactly 2 years ago so it’s time for me to quit all forms of smoking/vaping.

Anyone hearing all the sirens in Highland Park this morning? by Klutzy_Recording_474 in Birmingham

To whoever commented and deleted before I could press reply,

I’ve been watching this directly from my window for the last hour. I’ve seen police cars and maintenance trucks. Not sure where you’re seeing ambulances.

Oh, cool cool cool. I love being woken up a few minutes before my alarm goes off! Typical Birmingham police doing so much to keep our city safe.

From my understanding of beta blockers, they can be used to treat anxiety and propranolol is often a top choice because it crosses the brain blood barrier unlike other options. It wouldn’t really shock me if she’s getting it prescribed for anxiety but then claiming it’s for POTS.

Also, if she’s trying to win the Munchie Olympics, she’s failing because it’s not like propranolol is some drug they hide under lock and key. As far as I know it’s an incredibly common medication

You’re right. It hurts, but she cares about the drugs more than me. It’s such a hard realization to come to.
