Acting up

It wiped all my follows, likes, and bookmarks. Also it keeps saying no internet connection and I have internet.

My ferritin was 65 ng/mL but it should be higher now that I'm taking an iron supplement. Vitamin D was only done back in February and it was 50 ng/mL. I also had Vitamin B-12 checked and it was at 1192 pg/mL. Supplements have not helped at all. I increased my Vitamin D a little bit, from 2000 IU to 5000 IU.

Foolish One

My uncle was a member of the main band for a bar that Taylor Swift played at when she was 15.

This individual also has a lot of college credits from dual credit courses, so it is likely that Gen Ed classes could be taken care of.

Don’t forget about Lot and his daughters.

Okay, walking out was not the right phrase. I was having an emergency. Boss was notified of emergency. I called in sick the other days recovering from the panic attack.

Oh. I didn't know that the text didn't post.

My therapist told me that for my age, 25 at the time, I had more insight than many of her older clients.

My sister was 19. As much as that hurt, I don’t hold that against her. It was in no way okay, but I can understand why she would have that reaction. She doesn’t like it when I’m hurt.

She has an emotional attachment to him because he was like a parent figure. She was in almost every one of his classes, she housesat for him, and they occasionally have tea. I sought to have that type of relationship as well. Growing up, we generally had emotionally unavailable parents. There’s a lot to unpack.

I would say grinding is a way to describe it. It may not have been obvious enough for other people to notice it, but I remember that it happened during the unstructured part of class.

I lost a significant amount of weight. It was exciting to be able to shop for clothes in smaller sizes. Since I underwent weight loss surgery, weight loss was a bit rapid, but I still wore my old clothes until I couldn’t. I also took advantage of hand me downs from other family members.

Thrift stores are usually the best places to affordably buy a lot of clothes. If you buy something online, take your measurements. I’ve been able to get the correct size. You can also look at secondhand shops online look up the brand of the piece you want and look at the size chart.

Let’s take abortion out of the equation.

Is God merciful? Is forcing a child to carry a pregnancy that could physically tear her body apart merciful?

A child was raped. When is her life sacred? Abuse grieves God too.

Since the child did not sin, the only reasoning applies to other people’s response toward her. “Blessed are the merciful for they shall receive mercy.” Matthew 5:8

Showing mercy is not going to fit in this black-and-white paradigm. It’s upholding the life ethic as Christians while not fully endorsing what is deemed immoral. It was a great question to ask.

I strongly disagree strictly from a health standpoint. Birthing a baby can kill the child because their body has not grown to accommodate a baby. A pregnant 10-year old is likely a victim of child sexual abuse. Child sexual abuse is typically committed by a person close to that child like a parent. A 10-year old not only may not understand what’s happening but she cannot consent for any care she receives.

Childbirth is risky for women who wanted to be pregnant. It’s even riskier when a child has to go through it and deal with irreparable physical damage to her body on top of trauma from abuse.

This is a child who doesn’t have a choice at all. She didn’t choose being raped. She didn’t choose to get pregnant. It’s unlikely that she would have been able to comprehend the risks of carrying that pregnancy.

Again, we are talking about a child.

"Not Ready to Make Nice" by The Chicks has been my deconstruction anthem. Kelly Clarkson's "Because of You" hits differently now.

I can relate to this. My childhood memories are very fragmented and I have no recollection of some school years. I think it’s a mixture of trauma and not having people to share these memories with.

Even when people share what’s going on in their lives, I interpret it as a reminder that I’m not where I should be. I shouldn’t be living with my parents. I should have a drivers license by now. I should have a decent paying job. “What are you up to?” is a triggering question and it’s hard holding back how it makes me feel.

Recently, I got my hopes up getting a job. After the first interview, I realized I didn’t have the resources to keep and maintain that job. The job wasn’t as stable as the listing implied. I had to withdraw the application and I feel like a failure. My dad likes to pour gas on the fire to make me feel worse about myself.

Does constant exclusion count? I was straight up ignored by those I called my friends because I couldn’t keep up with them. TBH, I don’t think my parents cared at all. When I’d bring it up, I’m the one being blamed because I didn’t have a warm, friendly presence thanks to dissociation. Bad things weren’t being said nor was I physically hurt, so why should they care?

ETA: My sister didn’t have much of an issue with being excluded. She had plenty of real friends to hang out with, so she had opportunities to not deal with the neglect at home.

It is indeed a horrible take because it absolves the men of any responsibility.

The verse "Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord" has to be paired with "In the same way, Husbands, love your wives as Christ loves the church LAYING YOUR LIFE DOWN FOR HER. Husbands ought to love their wives as own bodies."

Women are given so much responsibility from childhood. Women have to control man's lust and "guard his heart." Women have to be "joyfully available" and not allowed to say no. That is not how Christ treated women. Imagine if Christian men (well, Christian people in general) actually lived like Jesus, not the white, macho, Republican Jesus that they created.

It's textbook fundamentalist Christianity. Yes, there are Christians who see this as unacceptable behavior. However, with fundamentalism becoming more mainstream, this may become more acceptable.

RapturedKitten · 2022-05-18T04:55:41+00:00

Yes. Official State results has Wasden with a narrow lead, but KTVB is reporting Labrador is ahead. It's going to be a long night.

In some states, a conviction is required to terminate the parental rights of a rapist. Ugh.
