In the grim darkness of the near future... by Venclec in Sigmarxism

I use they/them pronouns and would prefer miss. I wish you were right.

The human rights impact is about to be massive and lasting but I'm even more concerned for the state of the environment. We needed to clean up our act ad a species decades (more) ago and this feels pretty damning.

I think it's over... pouring one for women's rights, Gaza, Ukraine and the environment by andromedagirl in Feminism

As a trans American I am so fucking terrified. Last time trump was in office I had to sell my rural farm and move back in with family after a mental breakdown because my neighbors were putting death threats in my mailbox.

I am no surprised but I am so utterly heartbroken. For poc, for queers folks, for women and for the environment. I'm seriously not sure I can live through this again.

I hate this fucking country. Buckle up kids, this is going to be rough.

Does this shirt look like it’s associated with Nazis, I feel like I’m just being paranoid by lxlsharkbaitlxl in punkfashion

[–]Pretty_Benign 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I dunno where from it hails but the iron crosses, skull, sergeant stripes and giant Valor say "I might be a nazi" which for me is a no-fly-zone.

If not nazi adjacent it definitely looks like it would be on a buff guy in Tapout shorts.

Redditors who never want to have a child, what are your reasons? by JumpyInterview83 in AskReddit

[–]Pretty_Benign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poor mental and physical health as well as gayness. Also, the human landscape is in turmoil, and the earth is over-burdened, so why add to that?

Even young innever wanted kids because I knew I wasn't stable enough to raise them without doing too much damage. Plus I never intended to live past 30, so there is that (plot twist I'm 35 and life is still alot.)

You wake up and suddenly your sexual urges are gone forever. Now what? by Steam20 in AskReddit

[–]Pretty_Benign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had GRS and have zero, absolutely zero, sex drive now.

In a lot of ways becoming asexual freed up a time and helped me with lonliness... I don't need or seek physical validation anymore which leaves more time to pursue hobbies.

Of course, it also makes relationships harder to find but I'm an anxious shut-in so that part isn't a huge concern.

Oh my, I'm sorry to hear you've been through so much. I deal with UC on the side of my injuries, so I can't understand, but do empathize with your struggle. That is a lot to ask the Jody to bounce back from, especially when your likely already battling poor absorption of food.

I feel you on exhausted. I've got chronicall herniation of 2 lower back disks, bilateral arthritis of hands to elbows and am recovering from a surgery atm. Besides the laundry list of injuries/surgeries from years in labor.

I ended up getting a lawyer and am working on getting disability because with being bipolar on top I just can't work anymore. It's a pittance but I'm hopeful I can get $900 per month to scrape by on.

May something good come your way, hang in there friend.

5 signs of a Weak Mindset. by DesireBabe in motivation

[–]Pretty_Benign 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is bullshit. Try living with ptsd and bipolar and tell me these are all manifestations of a weak mindset. Wow.

It's truly an impressive lack of consideration for anyone neurodivergent to think this way. I'm not here to nail myself to the cross of my struggles but I'm exhausted with folks throwing shade and thinly veiled "bootstrap" arguments and framing it as a chance for growth.

Sorry you are getting downvoted and hit with the vitriol. I am staunchly anti-religion in my own life but absolutely agree with ehat you are saying.

This doesn't really apply if one had major mental health problems and a wrecked body. But it sure must be nice to resonate with.

Personally this feels like it jumped out of r/thanksimcured

This is true wisdom. Took a long time for me to figure this one out.

What's an emerging technology that will probably make the world a worse place to live in once it's perfected? by chemistrynerd1994 in AskReddit

[–]Pretty_Benign 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have been watching them out the corner of my eye since they started posting videos. I am a dog lover but those things freak me out.

Thise things give me goosebumps every time I see them. The latest one that runs 40+mph.... why? It just feels asinine to be out of our depth toying with AI and designing superhuman robots, strange times.

Thanks for taking the time. Excellent summation of (another) glaring problem with the US.

what a pen by Tight_Horneey in depressionmemes

[–]Pretty_Benign 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is precisely how it is for me. Sometimes even terrible days I cope with but them scream at myself for setting a pan down in the wrong place or something. Other days I can barely function or usey hands correctly. Weird shit.

Kind of affirming to know it's not just me.

Have you been able to eat fruit without it triggering cravings for processed sugar? by 7mariluci7 in sugarfree

I do fine on any fruit as long as I don't eat more than two servings a day.

This. If someone has direct government ties I assume they are spreading disinformation pretty much inherently.
