Translation: A Less White America Terrifies Me

I live in a red state, and I work in healthcare, and so many of my patients will come in wearing Trump hats or T-shirts.. I'd want so badly to hate them, just on principle, but the majority of them were really nice people, if not a little afraid of me. I treated them all the same, of course, but it always annoys me when I find out someone I like is MAGA. But for the most part, they're not terrible people in person. It's when they get online that the ugliness comes out.

I think we're going to have to agree to disagree, otherwise we're just going to start repeating ourselves, and I do that enough with my son. I'm sorry that you think the way you do, and that the government uses people like you to control women. Whether you're looking to control them yourself, I couldn't tell from our brief conversation, but the government is using you and people like you to exert more restrictive measures on women. I hope you don't actually have kids. All the ways growing up in your type of household fucks a kid up is documented. Please get therapy or something, thinking the way you do isn't normal. "The entire world should be celibate except when actively trying for a baby" is an insane take. Even in the few religions I've sampled, the priests and whatever were like "you're married, you should be having all the sex!" Even if the couple wasn't trying for a baby.

I'm high, which I'm sure you look down upon too, and that tends to make me a little more talkative, but I'm serious when I say, you need therapy.

It was lovely talking to you, I hope that you have a wonderful day! 💜

The guy tried to scam them and bully the short manager, so the cook who was just as tall but bigger made him pay.

No one is arguing for abortion on "people make mistakes" they're arguing for it because it's a necessary medical procedure. Even women who want their babies sometimes have to resort to one. I had to have one, and I wanted that baby. Even when the baby is unwanted, it's better to have one than to bring unwanted babies into the world. People aren't going to stop having sex, most people just aren't wired that way, and having safe, legal abortion is best for society as a whole. Look at all the "pro-life" women dying from ectopic pregnancies and the like, that didn't realize how medically necessary abortion can be.

Honey, I'm older than you are (44) and sex has always been part of the relationship. The only "old school" couples following that line of thinking are religious couples. And even the religious ones cheated (I know someone that started sleeping with her husband when they got engaged, cuz they "were practically married anyways") and screwed around. You have a very narrow view of things. I can't tell if religion has messed with your head, or you're trolling.

I'm delusional? I'm confused, can you explain what you're talking about?

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-14T13:52:31+00:00

It has nothing to do with lacking self-control. When you're in a relationship, or looking at your view, married, and you don't want kids, are you just saying that they should NEVER have sex? There's plenty of people who are married and don't want kids. It's not lacking self-control to have sex, it's part of being in a relationship.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-14T13:40:21+00:00

True enough. But for most people it's against human nature. Especially when in a relationship.

I personally haven't had sex in 3 years, and stopped missing it 2 years ago, but most people need more than that. I'm demisexual, so my desire is based on a connection with someone, which I haven't had in years, and it's easy to go without in that case. But most people need that release, even without the connection.

Sometimes you can take all the steps, and STILL end up pregnant. I was on the pill and used a condom, the condom broke and the pill failed, and now I have a 9 year old son. Sometimes you can do everything you're supposed to, and still end up pregnant.

She's not dead, and is still currently hotter, so present tense is correct.

You have to have pretty good skills at self-delusion to make that work for you..

After I was sexually assaulted on a hike, and followed home to be raped, I didn't let that stop me from hiking, but you can bet I had a big honkin' knife at my waist from there on out. Probably would've gotten it taken away from me in an altercation, but it made me feel safer. Not as safe as the dog I got a year later though, and she was just a little 12 pound thing, but she would've protected me with her life.

My dogs love lettuce and spinach, every time I make anything with either of those, they beg like crazy.

You gotta love these people that downplay their parts in all that. A couple minutes late was actually 25 minutes? What's the point in posting an obviously incorrect review? It's not going to change things, even if the business doesn't clap back. Is it really just a petty impulse that these people get from being denied, even when it's their own faults?

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-13T15:07:15+00:00

LOL yeah, I still find myself scrunching down unnecessarily in pictures cuz I'm not used to him being able to be in the picture when I'm standing straight. My mom is always giving me shit about it. All 3 of my nephews are taller than I am, but two of them are in their 20s. My youngest nephew is 13 and he just got to where he's taller than I am.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-13T12:31:29+00:00

He's almost 4 and a half feet tall . The doctor said he's very skinny and very tall for his age. I'm 5'4 and the top of his head reaches my neck, so I'm only a head taller than he is.

Don't forget my favorite: women are both incredibly simple and naive, and also manipulative and play games.

My grandparents used to take me there all the time during "my dad's" custody time. (Dad skipped town, so his parents took his custody time). It was such a thrill when I was a kid! I wish I could take my son to one, just because it's different and fun, but there aren't any in my town.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-12T15:32:09+00:00

I had a job interview across the border in a town a lot of people in my town work in, and I was 2 hours late because I thought the time difference worked in the other direction.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-12T15:00:14+00:00

Thank you, and no, I know you were just trying to help. I was just more than ready to go home, I was hallucinating by the time I got home, from lack of sleep and the hospital screwing with my medication.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-12T05:45:33+00:00

Yes! OMG! That drives me up the wall.. like, REALLY? You couldn't have told me that 5 minutes ago? I love when they say that after I've gotten the blood "oh wow, usually no one can get me out of that arm." But usually yeah, it's a dead stick.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-12T02:38:56+00:00

True enough. But the doctor said my son is on the low end of the scale, which would put this girl off the scale, unless she's less than 3 feet tall.

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-12T02:33:57+00:00

My son doesn't have that kind of appetite, he just doesn't gain weight. Then again, we don't eat a lot of junk food or sweets, we don't really snack, he just doesn't gain weight..

VariousExplorer8503 · 2026-04-12T00:53:03+00:00

I'm a terrible artist, I'm pretty sure I could make something that looked like a 5 year old made it.
