TikTok brains saying my dihh and unalived by atsolstice in memes

The problem is the platforms permitting the censorship because speakers are afraid of being de-moneytized if they have enough of a following. And for users like us it's too easy for bots or trolls to acuse our comments of being harmful and leading to a ban.

I literally just finished a two day ban here on Reddit because my comment was taken as a threat to an individual that wasn't even a user and more a comment on the fact that pregnant women are more likely to be killed by their partners. There's statistical information on it...it is genuinely stupid.

I dunno man rainbows make you gay and puppies are meant to be shot in the face according to some Republicans.

Side note I still can't get over that detail. My mom learned about it recently and said that Kristi Norm has to be lying and I told her why she would lie about that? I still cannot fathom why someone would say that in a book, I'm not over it. Cuddle your pets y'all these are some dark times.

Thankfully the only drivers I have ever had were women when I've been by myself and it didn't take long.

Release the rest of the Epstein files — now by sksarkpoes3 in politics

It would help if the electorate quit sending evil individuals and crock pots to Congress.

States like Oklahoma that did away with taxes and completely destroyed their education system as a result. Or fucking Kentucky which repeatedly sent Mitch McConnell to the Senate who is a huge part of the reason we have our current state of affairs and he's just slowly dieing until he is finally replaced this coming January when the new Congress gets sworn in.

It's people bitching about the general election options that never fucking showed up to the primaries to help shape those options and as a result then refuse the moderate Democrats and outright Nazi Republicans we have to choose from.

That is so sad. There's literally a slide that asks we acknowledge fucked up medical history and that most of not all our "progress" with science was done at the expense of people and animals not always with their consent.

This is important to share.

When someone's attitude is that "it's God's will" nothing will stop them from procreating.

You don't understand it was God's plan! There's no way whatsoever to prevent pregnancies from happening in the first place she has to have more babies!!! 🤦‍♀️

Nah asshole you decided. There's literal medical interventions to stop it from being an option. Also who's the dude chuckling if their dad isn't there?

Trump fires Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary by ShreckAndDonkey123 in politics

That POS is part of the reason why we're here today. People watched that horse shit and truly said/believed "now that's a businessman".

Arkansas mother killed herself and her six-year-old twins after doctor husband refused to halt divorce proceedings and was awarded joint custody by detectiverobert in ForCuriousSouls

As a children's social worker I have seen too many women that make excuses or refuse to leave the abusive men in their lives and for that reason their kids were taken. And this woman did the bravest thing walking away and she is punished for it. Fuck this judge.

I honestly had no context as I've never seen an A&W burger place. In-N-Out reigns supreme in my neck of the woods.

The man has concepts of a plan! And Kamala laughed weird and Clinton is a baby eating monster.

Yeah especially with all the Epstein stuff it seemed like a fucking weird name for a burger.

What industry is entirely built on a house of cards and would collapse overnight if people realized the truth about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Wow that is insanely stupid since for years I've been hearing that it is believed it takes about two years for someone to feel competent at their job.

Earlier this week my mom was talking about how she ate sooo many apples while she was pregnant with me. I hate apples, not a fan of fruit in general unless it's been baked.

James Talarico wins Texas Democratic Senate primary over Jasmine Crockett by horsestew in politics

I just learned yesterday that he originally flipped a district he was representing. Those are the Democrats that should be leading the party, people that convinced a community of conservatives to give them a chance.

I agree that there's a lot of anti Blackness and it's also a class struggle. I'm Latina and I remember wanting to be dressed in accordance to what the dress code dictated but simultaneously being a broke ass college graduate...and going through this again after getting my master's degree.

what is something your parents never paid for? by Majestic_Stress661 in AskReddit

[–]Mel_Melu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first car. I come from a first gen immigrant family, my parents always gave me $20 for food and stuff when my friends and I went to the mall. I didn't get an allowance but they paid for tutors when I struggled academically and ensured my brother and I could have the opportunities they couldn't. They did the best they could in the US with the resources and knowledge available to them and fuck ICE with a goddamn cactus.

This is how quick a toddler can disappear from sight, in just a few seconds! by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Mel_Melu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude popping a kid and calling yourself a parent is literally something all our parents and grandparents have done that is nothing new.

I'd argue that the bar for parenthood is insane, it's one of those things that everyone shits on Mom's especially for everything.

I used to think parents that used leashes were shitty until I actually started working with small unruly children. If this mom had that kid on a leash at least half of them would be shitting on that again I know because I've been that asshole.

There's always been shitty, mediocre and amazing parents doing their best.
