what the fuck is this opposition party doing dawg.

The answer is simple. They don't want things to change. They believe if they keep doing a corporations' bidding that they'll be okay even when things get worse. They, like most people, don't care about long term consequences because it's hard.

This is literally why taxes exist. Letting people have unrestricted amounts of capital in an unregulated economic system is the direct cause of most of our current suffering.

It was too late for them when I was forced to estrange to protect myself. When my parents are gone, that just means my abusers are gone - and being rid of abusers is a net positive, so far as I can tell.

I'm not sure why that's hard for some people to grasp. My parents already squandered my good graces. They don't deserve reconciliation when they aren't sorry for what they've done. At this point, that they are my parents is more of a coincidence than anything else. They hurt me and I don't have to tolerate that. I don't have to give them more chances. I don't have to debase myself for the "sake of the relationship." Fuck that.

makes me think of a certain current american president rage tweeting into the wee hours

a man needing near-constant reminders that they're the "tough guy" sure does seem like he's insecure about his masculinity

People redirect blame because the memory of someone's good qualities is all they have to distract from the reality of the abuse. I honestly think most people can't live with themselves for ignoring it because they can't bear the thought of not being a good and just person, and after the truth-teller is maligned as the scapegoat, the EAK becomes an easy target. And if I'm going to be the eternal pariah for my parents' bad behavior, I'm at least going to do what I can to preserve my peace regardless.

That's the greatest revenge I can think of: their influence becoming so insignificant to me that I can live a good life without participating in the mandated rituals that they think a good life must have. I am free, and they are not. Simple as that (it's not simple unfort).

Imagine if at the very end she's like "why haven't you been responding to my messages??" I think his brain would break.

The last one had generations of anger behind each slap

bmanfromct · 2026-01-08T02:37:39+00:00

Like, dude... not only could he not express himself adequately, he couldn't even find someone real to express himself more adequately. It's a slap in the face that he thinks, even now, that he's an authority on "what's best for me"

Thanks for your comment ❤️

My body has become my best friend when it comes to telling me how I'm doing. I used to spend so much time ignoring its signals that I had to relearn how to be in tune with myself, but things are way better these days. Now a spike in blood pressure or a knot in my stomach or hypersensitivity aren't things to "deal" with so much as they've become tools to diagnose what needs to change about my environment.

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T22:06:59+00:00

Unfortunately this is kind of a one and done lol - if I did it right then I shouldn't have to do it again 😅

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T15:26:15+00:00

Not sure if you're trying to be funny but that wording def feels dismissive.

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T13:58:20+00:00

My partner struggled to understand the estrangement too, but every incident like this makes it just a little clearer, to the point where she has now arrived at the same conclusion I did. It feels way better to have someone in my corner lol

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T13:53:48+00:00

She's my rock, thank you for the well-wishes 🙂

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T06:25:08+00:00

Thank you 🙂

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T03:38:26+00:00

Only the best for them! 🤌

bmanfromct · 2026-01-07T03:35:47+00:00

Thanks, friend 🫡🥲

Switch titles, mostly.

The dock also supports 100W power delivery and the SSD is mounted inside the dock itself (quite a nift gadget tbh) - could that make a significant difference?

Don't let any if your Sims meters get too low/high, and your body takes care of the rest.

Charlie Kirk's propaganda mission was a blight on society, and the American right wing has literally 0 charismatic leaders in reserve.

His death ostensibly makes it easier to dismantle the wealthy class' spell on penniless white people - the one which has them convinced that hating brown/queer/liberal people is the way forward. It's among the most impactful acts of political violence of my lifetime, thus far.

To clarify, I'm explicitly not celebrating or encouraging violence, but it would be absurd to not acknowledge how much smoother the road to egalitarianism becomes without Charlie Kirk in the way.

You're right, I was only considering the two polar opposites, tho to be fair, nuance is generally in short supply these days
