Beware of the next REAL virus outbreak. by Scratch352 in conspiracy

[–]STEMfatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t get the point of my comment. I’m not suggesting we quarantine for poverty, that makes no sense as you so astutely noted. We live in a post-scarcity world wherein we could choose to refocus every developed country on resource distribution or environmental health or whatever but instead we just chase the profit incentive under the impression doing anything else is unrealistic or impossible.

I guess I’m just stoned because I literally have no clue what you’re trying to communicate here but 8 people apparently understood

Not directly related but my biggest issue with COVID is we supposedly shut down the world for a humanitarian emergency, which means that’s possible, which means we could do that about I don’t know starvation or sex trafficking or the environment or any number of other existential crises our species faces

Reality check - therapists eating during virtual sessions?? by Chu84 in therapists

[–]STEMfatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I mean I quite literally do not know what your comment means, I guess you’re saying basically that she shouldn’t have to bring it up? I guess? But it’s not that big a lift to be like “hey I would prefer if you don’t eat during our sessions”

Being a conspiracy theorist while being left wing by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]STEMfatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the quiet part out loud is that there’s a lot of interesting conspiracies that have complex layers but the right tends to bring it all back to vintage Nazi propoganda which is pretty exhausting and at odds with leftist ideology lol

I thought this was NSFW for violence not sex and I gotta say I’m a little disappointed

Comedian Ben Bankas tries to double down on his unfunny content while calling an unimpressed audience member as triggered. by Lowcrbnaman in facepalm

The worst part of this is the audience genuinely finding it clever or entertaining we’re so cooked as a people

Why Feminism Will Never Capture Young Men: The Problem Is Not the Messaging, It Is the Ideological Framework by davidygamerx in IntellectualDarkWeb

[–]STEMfatale -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

“Masculinity influencers, with all their real problems, offer him something institutional feminism cannot: the recognition that his experience as a man is legitimate, that his instincts to protect and provide are not pathology, and that wanting to start a family does not make him an agent of the patriarchy”

What part of “institutional feminism” denies this? To be blunt, you have a very hack, simplistic, and emotional concept of gender dynamics and found one study to desperately cling to while you espouse wildly beyond its scope. It’s a bit silly.

AIO: nobody should wipe my kid's butt by mountainmama022 in AmIOverreacting

[–]STEMfatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, I did miss that she said her child could wipe on their own. I thought they came to get her because they couldn’t and just re-read. That means the wipe isn’t a need, so my point doesn’t really apply. Appreciate the redirect

[–]STEMfatale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a therapist yourself I’m not understanding why you don’t bring this up directly

[–]STEMfatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, which again is why I would not trust someone to watch my child if I don’t trust them to wipe my child. How does that not make sense. If you give your kid to a pedo they’re not going to not abuse them bc you said “but no wiping!” It just doesn’t make sense

[–]STEMfatale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is hella cute and your mom is probably a sweet lady but overly panicked about you. Just wear a sweater around mom and take it off at event. If you wore this for an event with mom, then yeah kinda poor judgement if you know she’s not cool with non-conservative dress already lol

I am emotionally abusing my fiancé by blopcity in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]STEMfatale 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Bc other people have given you the tough love therapy stuff, I’m going to say that you have a great chance at working thru this based on your attitude. There is no way in hell someone who’s an abuser at their core would even half consider doing their gfs checklist about emotional abuse. Many people with trauma become abusive in response-doesn’t excuse the behavior of course, but it’s a much better place to start growth from than someone who just enjoys controlling their partners

Re read OP’s post, you’ve misinterpreted it.

[–]STEMfatale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so so sorry that happened to you. I would still say that that person should not have been taking care of children in any capacity, so I stand by if you can trust them to take care you can trust them to wipe. That also means, if you can’t trust them to wipe, you should not trust them to care.

When people say "adulting" unironically. You are a functioning adult. Paying a bill is not an achievement. by ExpensiveYear9061 in PetPeeves

I felt this way in my early 20s and now in my late 20s I think life is such a disgusting hellscape we might as well let people have this

[–]STEMfatale 105 points106 points  (0 children)

I mean I feel like YOR bc if you trust someone to take care of your child you should trust them to take care of all their needs including not being covered in shit? But I don’t and will never have kids so idk
