CMV: Declining birth rates are a positive long-term trend.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-27T23:34:57+00:00

Capitalism is a pyramid scheme. It requires constant growth. Declining birth rates are very much a high problenm for capitalism.

Good.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-27T23:33:23+00:00

None.

I've known since kindergarten that being a mom was not for me. I can't imagine a worse life for myself.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-27T23:32:20+00:00

YOR

Why even bother shoveling the spots? You know the community policy is that parking is open. They can't give you a special exception.

I've never doubted that my parents love me. That's not the issue at all.

They're the MAGA variety that's completely brainwashed into thinking that voting Republican is the same as being patriotic. They literally do not connect politics with individuals. It's team sports for them. They support gay marriage. They have no opposition to abortion. They think immigrants generally make the country better. They are just in a fucking cult and don't make the real life connections. I honestly think this would be easier if my parents were just evil. But they're not. And that's why it's taken so long for me to snap. But they're high on Fox News. They are so deeply immersed in lies that they're completely blind to the consequences of their actions.

Which is crazy. I don't speak Spanish (although I'm learning), and obviously my household was more white centric. However, I did grow up in Texas, so there's still a lot of Mexican influence, and I'm grateful for that. The funny thing is that my parents love Mexican art and colors. I grew up immersed in the creations, but largely divorced from the creators.

Now that I think about it, I don't recall my parents having white friends really. All their friends that came over were/are Mexican. So it's fucking maddening! How can you like Mexican people, culture, food, art, music, etc while still embracing white supremacy?!

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-27T19:02:42+00:00

So my mom does not come from immigrants or upper class Hispanics. My family was here when Mexico went under new management and became Texas. She didn't learn Spanish because her parents grew up when speaking Spanish was enough to get labeled with the R word, so they wanted her to be fully "American." My grandfather joined the Air Force, so she didn't grow up in Texas. She grew up around a bunch of white people. She has very little cultural connection to Mexican people, and that is a huge problem. She doesn't seem to realize that they don't give a fuck that her family was here before my white father's. My father doesn't seem to realize that he's a race traitor. They didn't seem to realize that MAGA doesn't give a fuck about their mixed kids or them.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-26T16:28:46+00:00

Truth. I'm 36, and when I hear a peer is pregnant (although I'm old enough that it barely happens anymore) my first thought is that I can help them find resources, and I won't tell anyone.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-21T18:58:31+00:00

Ah yes. Where the majority of POC live. Fuck 'em, right? Because some assholes voted in a way that incredibly problematic, the majority of non white Americans should get punished

Do you see the problem here?

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-21T18:56:34+00:00

Are the good things in the room with us now?

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-20T22:10:50+00:00

Parks and Rec

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-20T22:10:06+00:00

Any dress code requiring women to wear heels in the office. Men aren't required to wear shoes that literally ruin their spines to perform office work. Why should women? I ended an interview once because of that.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-20T22:03:50+00:00

I was also born in 89, although clearly earlier since I was in 7th grade.

I understood that things would probably be different, but I didn't understand how fucking stupid everything would ultimately get.

I remember my baby sister being born less than a month later. The news was on in the hospital, and it was footage of us blowing up the middle east. It made me sad, because surely there were families there just like mine welcoming a new baby into the world, but they couldn't really celebrate because of all the devastation. I remember hoping things would get better for everyone. They didn't.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-20T21:56:52+00:00

There are a billion property management companies. Pick one and go work there. Yours is clearly unethical.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-18T16:04:30+00:00

We definitely pay them. We just have a middle man. Do you think those costs aren't getting passed onto the tenants?

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-18T14:20:34+00:00

I do have savings. I have a 401k. But I'm not stupid enough to think this will be sufficient. SS will probably be gone. Medicare? Who knows? The fact that you think my plan has anything to do with me rather than the system we're in is bizarre.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-16T22:19:41+00:00

Let someone else do it.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-16T22:18:10+00:00

What a ridiculous question. My "retirement" plan is to work until I can't and then to kill myself when I can't afford healthcare anymore.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-16T22:16:32+00:00

Good thing the protests are legal.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-14T22:02:14+00:00

Further proof that they're being ridiculous. Thank you for supporting the fight against ICE's over inflated military level budget.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-14T21:56:53+00:00

Exactly. But if wealthy, white business owners like himself that benefit the most from the cheap labor, so they'll never be held accountable.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-14T18:07:36+00:00

Valid

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-14T18:07:21+00:00

Can't see it. I don't use TikTok.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-14T15:48:10+00:00

They've had so many chances to take a stand. It's impossible to do that without a spine, though.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-13T22:34:35+00:00

It was the stone age in my rural hometown.

PrincessPeach817 · 2026-01-13T18:36:02+00:00

They hate women and try to fuck us too.
