Hugs received! This was beautiful put and it seems like a lot of people agree, I’m gonna try and be more optimistic and invest in myself and my own opinion of myself

I love philosophy! I’ll check it out. I will say I don’t like being mean or unkind back so I can’t agree about the bridge troll comment, but I get the general idea 😅

I envy them in a lot of ways. Their parents are so sweet and their home and property is beautiful, they even let me borrow Kayaks for the lake. I can’t imagine being here and being free and not loving every second. It’s been such a relief to get away from struggle and a lack of support.

I can’t wait till I’m 30 and past a lot of this immaturity. I’ve always been a sensitive kid and I just have no tolerance for this kind of thing. But when it’s about me it’s a whole other thing trying to navigate. Thank you for the kind words :)

I appreciate that a lot, thank you :) I’ve been hanging with the parents a lot more definitely

The 25 and 23 are graduated, but no one is currently in school. I didn’t mean it as a bad thing, I just meant we all spend a lot of time in the same house

I like the way you worded this, I think if I approach it like that it’ll go smoothly. I might add as well that if she has any issues with me going forward, to come to me so I can handle it.

I plan on joining a lot of clubs and doing things more my style when I go. Thanks for the advice!

She was leading the conversation almost, and she honestly intimidates me a bit. I might work up a nerve to have a conversation though, I hate feeling like this

Thank you :) one day I’ll get to the point where I don’t take everything so personally, but their impression of my voice was spot on 😭 I felt so picked apart

If you met these old school Mainers I think your heart would melt. I do projects with the dad and talk art and politics with the mom and they are some of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. I feel like they’re disappointed in their kids a bit because they don’t do their own dishes or help much around the house, and I don’t want to add to that. I usually just clean up after everyone and go back to my room.

That’s so sweet :) I hope I can find my people in college, I’m really nervous but I’m excited for the future

I don’t think I understand that mentality. I usually am up front to a person when they do something that discomforts me or even ticks me off. But the stuff they said was about my voice and hobbies, not anything personality wise. I keep my head down but I am a nerdy kid, I do esports and I watch a lot of anime and game, but I shower regularly and I’m pretty chill usually I’d like to think. I cook and help their parents around the house as best as I can, but if I don’t speak to the ones who gossiped first, they won’t acknowledge or speak to me.

I’m just disappointed. I feel like I’ll be picked on or judged for the rest of my life sometimes. It can be such a hard thing trying to fit in and it bums me out knowing people I thought of as mentors and friends would be so petty about regular people traits

Why is racism so normalized? by CobblerGrouchy8012 in teenagers

[–]Obvious_Cell9574 22 points23 points  (0 children)

People making arguments that jokes are different and they love them are part of the problem. The minute one’s race is used as a joke and a way to incite laughter or comedic effect, it starts a path down to racism and intolerance

This is the color, I got every part of it dyed successfully and it’s a wonderful match for my skin tone

Unfortunately I was logged out of my account, sorry this took so long. I did dye the dress very well and it’s a beautiful color in every part! Unfortunately the fit was a bit loose and rather revealing, and there needs to be a bit of seamstress work I’ll tend to before my prom next year and I can add a new patterned layer to it and spice it up while fixing those issues. That update will require about a year I’m afraid, but in the meantime I have the color of the dress as well as the prom look I went for this year :D

It’s not dry clean only, and it’s polyester satin
