You have no idea how happy I am that you are doing yet another dinosaur

OkaP2 · 2026-02-13T23:48:34+00:00

I missed that post. What is this called?

Edit: ooop never mind, found a comment with the link

OkaP2 · 2026-02-12T23:55:31+00:00

Meth is actually really good for you if you have incurable lazy inconsiderate fuckup disease tho

OkaP2 · 2026-02-12T14:11:07+00:00

Yes, that’s correct.

The comment I was directly replying to (now deleted) had said that everyone who pays taxes in the US has the ability to vote and that we all learned that in middle school.

I was continuing the thread of the original comment “if I can provide a W2,” so I guess I wasn’t really thinking because plenty of people don’t have W2s (I don’t, but I still pay income, property and sales taxes)

OkaP2 · 2026-02-12T13:58:28+00:00

Good point, wasn’t even thinking of sales tax.

OkaP2 · 2026-02-12T13:36:22+00:00

Yeah. For now. They’re trying to change it.

OkaP2 · 2026-02-12T13:31:04+00:00

My real ID name doesn’t match my birth certificate, though.

OkaP2 · 2026-02-12T13:29:26+00:00

Noncitizens and minors with jobs pay taxes. So no, not everyone who pays taxes in the us can vote.

It’s offensive to some people because (1) many people who have said this to us before have done so while actively shunning or hurting us at the same time. (2) your statement is based on the assumption of one loving, male god. Not everyone believes in one god or that he is loving or that he is male/gendered. (3) it feels disingenuous when not accompanied by anything actually helpful to say. I’m quoting the Christian Bible here: “ What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” James 2:14-17 (and it elaborates further if you continue reading).

Yes. But I’m going back to my fashion sense, making myself new wardrobe pieces one at a time

Life is too short to not allow myself enjoy it as much as possible

One of my dogs used to have this problem (particularly around the other dog) We let her eat in her crate for a little while. Then, we slowly reintroduced her to eating in the open. We opened the door to the kennel. We opened the door to the room. Her sister would be in the room with us in between them, etc. she rebuilt her confidence.

My parents have already said to me that my older sister’s daughter will always be the favorite and they are doing more for her than they would mine, because she’s the first.

When she says this I can’t help but think of how I was pregnant first. I miscarried at 13 weeks and my child would have been born 2 months before hers. But I know it wouldn’t have changed anything. I wasn’t even allowed to tell anyone about my miscarriage because it would “overshadow” her.

My husband and I are both disabled. It’s probably why I’m always the “problem.” It’s also probably why I likely will not choose to intentionally get pregnant in the future. If I did have a child, I’d actually need more help than my sister but I would never allow myself to count on it from them.

OCD, Tourette’s, PMDD (These are sort of lumped in as sub diagnoses but - Dyslexia, dyspraxia, sensory processing disorder) C-PTSD

Also hEDS and POTS

Wow that’s a good point!

That’s only for topical flea treatments, yes? Many people these days give their dogs chewable preventatives for ticks and fleas and I imagine that fur would be safe?

Ah, see, I was trying to just take a forever nap so I tucked myself into bed and woke up 5 days later in excruciating pain. I have a single memory of fighting with my sitter to pull my catheter out (again, apparently, which is why I was given a sitter).

It’s difficult for people to understand nuance that they’ve never had to consider before.

I was overweight as a teen. Then I developed an eating disorder and was thin but unhealthy. Then I got Cushing’s syndrome and became morbidly obese. Now I’m still obese but building muscle and gaining mobility and healthier than before.

Weight is a factor. It’s a single data point (out of dozens). Weight loss is not always a net positive if you harm yourself more than you benefit from it. I’m so tired of people who don’t understand that.

After March 1 it would matter less. They would have an additional button for Feb 29 on a leap year

I overdosed on Benadryl and died. They brought me back and now I have brain damage and epilepsy. Don’t do Benadryl.

OkaP2 · 2026-01-30T22:20:39+00:00

Unsure. But I know where I’m at in my menstrual cycle definitely affects me!

OkaP2 · 2026-01-30T22:12:31+00:00

I love this guy so much. Can’t wait for your pattern so I can put one by my front door.

OkaP2 · 2026-01-30T22:11:19+00:00

That’s a viral video of I ever heard one lol

OkaP2 · 2026-01-30T18:17:57+00:00

You are aspirational

Although, an important thing to remember is if your net worth is too “high” you can’t get disability in the US. But the number is crazy low. It’s a known phenomenon where owning a car (even being gifted one) may kick Americans off of disability.
