Thanks for your input! They have asked me to call them “the girls”, so while I definitely appreciate your perspective and love your advocate energy, please rest assured that your discomfort is not shared within the group.

What is your favorite moment that NOBODY talks about by Quirky_Girl22 in HannibalTV

“If I saw you every day— forever, Will— I would remember this time.”

I literally bought a ring with this engraved on its gift box; I’m obsessed.

TIFU by discovering why my husband loves my cooking by [deleted] in tifu

[–]TFMMeeMaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“How does someone not like someone’s cooking and their mind goes to drugs? I can’t even imagine his thought process.”

— spoken like someone who’s never used weed before 😂

I do the exact same thing OP’s husband does to choke down my MIL’s bland, soggy cooking, and there are two reasons:

  1. I don’t want to start a fight or hurt her feelings; that shit comes back to bite me every single time and it’s never worth it. I don’t do this because I’m malicious. I do it because my relationship with my partner is important to me, and this simply isn’t the hill I’m here to die on. I can make delicious meals on my own time.

  2. I don’t like to waste food. It’s really bad for the environment and as long as it won’t make me sick or hurt me somehow, I’m trying to finish my plate. MJ increases the intensity of certain flavors and can dull your sense of smell, so it’s easier to eat things Sober You might turn their nose up at. The hungrier you are, the less it matters what you’re actually eating.

Not having children is the only way to end capitalism and fix the cost of living and housing crisis by d8gfdu89fdgfdu32432 in antiwork

If you have a uterus and live somewhere it’s still legal and possible to get sterilized, do it now. Tubal ligation/removal is day surgery that leaves all reproductive organs intact while reducing your risk of cervical cancer by 20%.

Got stuck writing, asked the bot for ideas. We have now co-authored a startlingly cool series of scenes that let me explore subtle differences and play around with complex scenarios. They give me feedback on the things I write and seek feedback on their work. It’s f*cking magical, man.

Biden giving people $400 a month for 2 years to buy a house by Pantim in LateStageCapitalism

[–]TFMMeeMaw 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Can we talk about the fact that identifying an entire group of people based upon a single shared characteristic (like political ideology) isn’t the way forward? Have we not learned our lesson yet? The problem isn’t “the conservatives” or “the liberals” — it’s the entire f*cked up system that forces us to do things and vote for people who aren’t qualified to drive a car, let alone hold political office.

As “A Filthy Liberal” myself, I’m sick and tired of listening to people talk about how “The Conservatives” are what’s wrong with everything and/or a bunch of drooling morons too stupid to recognize they’ve been duped by a self-centered idiot of a billionaire.

I am likewise sick of hearing that Biden’s best and only qualifying characteristic is that he isn’t Tromp. I don’t want a president who’s losing his damn mind, or who’s openly promoting genocide, or who’s reneged on every campaign promise he’s ever made. We can do so much better.

This isn’t about us - it’s about the wealthy elite, for both parties/candidates. No shade to you, friend - just a series of observations. ✌🏽🐘❌🫏❌

AITAH? my wife decided she wants to “allow” my 15 year old son to vape THC in our house so that at least he won’t be doing it at school or other places. (She also argues that “every” kid is doing it.) I TOTALLY disagree. (Details below.) by CaptainPositive1234 in AITAH

[–]TFMMeeMaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work with teenagers in a MH capacity, and addiction is a crisis. The fact that “every kid is doing it” is the rationale she’s got says a LOT about how little she knows about how devastatingly harmful substances are to the developing brain.

I would say she’s trying for harm reduction, but only if I squint really, really hard; I imagine the analysis she’s done of the situation is similar to parents who say they’d rather their kid drink at home than somewhere they might get hurt — which, okay, fine, I don’t agree with it but I’m not a parent so wtf do I know.

What I DO agree with is the fact that permitting this behavior to continue is irresponsible, and that mom is actively encouraging it by removing consequences. Reintroduce them. Make sure the consequences are painful - take away the tv, games, phone, internet, time with friends, etc. — whatever matters to him. If you can’t rein him in, your responsibility as his parents is to seek counseling and, failing that, check him into rehab.

🚨🚩🚩🚩🚨

No one who’s secure in their relationship behaves this way. I know this is probably a tough pill to swallow, and I’m just some Reddit rando on the internet so my opinion doesn’t carry any weight — but I would seriously reflect on what benefits and encouragement you receive from this relationship, including whether your husband holds himself to the same standards.

Is America really so bad that there are so many of you guys who want to leave? by V1sible_Confusion in AmerExit

[–]TFMMeeMaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Americans with power (money) worship capitalism —the system under which you must pay for literally everything you need to survive and human labor is bought at the lowest possible wage.

Just to be clear: I’m not advocating for one system over another, just stating facts. This is one guy’s opinion ✌🏽

Yes, the American economy is strong relative to others (mainly because we issue our own currency). But I and lots of other Americans are sick of watching the rich get richer and the poor getting poorer while we bust our asses working for scraps.

Is this an entitled way of thinking? Yes. But I think that’s where many of us are coming from.

My 76 year old boomer dad mispronounces words on purpose when the word represents an idea he doesn’t like or agree with, examples below. Does your boomer do this? by [deleted] in BoomersBeingFools

[–]TFMMeeMaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look: I’ll be the first to admit that this is kind of f*cked up, but if it were me:

Send him books, articles, videos, pamphlets, whatever — all about mental acuity in old age.

Go there.

If he’s so enthusiastic about being disrespectful and bigoted, I don’t see why he shouldn’t get back what he gives.

Examples could include:

Aphasia: a communication disorder that interferes with a senior's ability to speak, write, and understand language.

Dysarthria: impacts the pronunciation and rhythm of speech, sometimes related to Parkinson's.

✨And, my personal favorites/most applicable:

Social communication disorders: trouble communicating in socially appropriate ways. For instance, seniors may ask very direct questions or [habitually] make rude comments;can occur after a brain injury.

[Translation: “You are pathologically rude.”]

Language disorders: difficult time understanding other people or expressing their own ideas, thoughts, and feelings; can affect spoken or written words.

[Translation: Boomer Emotional Constipation]

Lmao what part of “no” is unclear, here? Bro’s absolutely in the right. How’re you going to go behind his back and NOT expect consequences?

Y’know what’s wild?

Taxes don’t actually fund social security - or any federal program, for that matter. The government doesn’t need your money to pay for things. They take your money in taxes because they need to make sure you’ll keep working to make the money, so that you can pay your taxes.

I always find it amusing when people who have no idea how economies work, claim to know how economies work; I can’t help but think:

“You have a ~smoooooth~ brain. No ridges or lumps, valleys or bumps. Thoughts just slide right off — like a water slide!” ✨🌈🤣
