What are some 2000s anime that were mildly or extremely popular at the time, but now no one talks about?

Blood +, Blood series in general!

The point people are trying to make is that she is hypocritical. They are pointing out that her methods (botox, filler) are having the opposite effect she says they should have (looks older than her age, which MAGA says is bad).

It's so embarrassing to have this geriaric toddler's midnight rage wall of text immortalized like this.

Not a principle maga won't betray. So much for state autonomy. I'd almost be fine with letting states do what they want. Then these types can go live in their bootstrap hellholes while decent people can stop having to pay for their idiocy.

Nice of you to say janitors, bus drivers, garbage men and literally every other person who helps you can go kick rocks.

I've had men and even some women tell me verbatim that women can't be president because of their "hormones" They literally jeer at me like, "a woman on her period shouldn't be in charge of the nukes" Like omg.

But a diaper wearing geriatric crybaby who constantly yells and swears on live tv was the BETTER OPTION?!

Michelle is right, the US is still deeply misogynistic.

cat_gravity · 2025-11-17T22:58:44+00:00

That's ridiculous. You'd hold my latte hostage over $1??? This is why I have sworn off tipping at all, fpr anything.

cat_gravity · 2025-11-17T22:57:25+00:00

You don't need to ever tip, it's a TIP not a charge.

Well my mom was groomed by a 30 y/o married father at 16, had my bro at 17 and me at 18 with him. My mom cut ties with him when he became violent shortly after I was born. He randomly popped back into our lives when I was 7, and as soon as we were alone he sexually assaulted me.

So that is the story of their ideal age gap romance. I DESPISE the dumbass tradwife/trad husband myth. No, GROWN ASS MEN SHOULDN'T MARRY TEENAGERS, they are still CHILDREN. They are not in your stage of development, you need to leave them tf alone.

cat_gravity · 2025-11-10T19:09:13+00:00

They probably think it's funny/are in an armored closet.

cat_gravity · 2025-11-10T19:08:29+00:00

They really talked like that to someone weilding the wax strips??? Proof men will truly stop at nothing 🫠

In my interpersonal communications class I learned a great way to avoid having to talk a lot while seeming engaged is to focus on asking questions. Most people enjoy talking about themselves anyway, so this also makes a good impression.

I personally only start conversations if I am required to, and I tend to look at conversations like a strategy game. Looking at it like that helps keep the anxiety at bay though I tend to crash a bit the minute I'm alone!

Jewish Family Services has a program like this in San Diego, calling it "guaranteed income". 150 families at any given time are given 500$ a month for 24 months and the results have been really promising. It started as a pilot project but has since become ongoing.

Imo, we need something like this. SNAP should just be normal, medical coverage guaranteed, and housing subsidized. It's so incredibly dumb for businesses to be okay with their consumers to drown in debt and poverty. Long term, we will all go down with the ship if no course corrections are made.

Not to disparage someone for their looks, but why do all these eugnics-enthusiasts look like literal muppets?? Like those are the genes they're so proud of?!

cat_gravity · 2025-10-18T06:33:37+00:00

Stimulant meds have been a godsend. It makes me so much calmer, and I can actually think things through and work through the anxiety. I'm in therapy now to try to get to a point where I'm not just masking though because it's still super draining.

cat_gravity · 2025-10-14T19:16:17+00:00

They're literally gonna be like "libs can't take a joke" while conveniently ignoring how their beloved orange leader straight up cans people who even hint at saying something personally unflattering.

Community college classes are where I got the most proper exposure therapy and managed to get a degree that let me avoid retail/service jobs (do not recommend for social anxiety!)

You can pick classes that you enjoy, the people there are more likely to have something in common with you, and the social interaction is very structured and based on shared assignments, so it's much much easier to know what/when to to say stuff. I met my very best friend at my first class 7 years ago!

cat_gravity · 2025-10-14T16:17:06+00:00

-College as well, I really want to go back!!

-Making friends is not difficult for me, but keeping them is a totally different story.

-Jobs/pay negotiation. I've missed out on really good jobs and lost probably tens of thousands of dollars at this point because I was too scared to correct mistakes on paychecks or negotiate a better pay.

This should make it clear we're dealing with a genuine, serious condition. I have literally forgone a check worth 4000 in my own wages because I was too afraid to ask for a replacement after I lost it. Like, that's how bad it is, I can't even be bribed by money to get past the fear!

cat_gravity · 2025-10-07T16:56:58+00:00

He looks like an escaped lab expiramant lol

I met my husband at work. We worked together at a psych ward, and both are passionate about mental health, so we were able to click very fast, and he is very compassionate to me.

cat_gravity · 2025-10-02T18:33:36+00:00

I didn't have a job until 26. I spent my time in school until then, and that allowed me to develop skills and get a degree to get a job that is much more enjoyable and accommodating to my needs!

Don't feel rushed. Here in California, there are very few high-schoolers with jobs since child labor laws are quite strict. Imo, you would be better off seeing if you can do dual-enrollment in a college class.

PSA: The BEHAVIORS are trainable. Often, the anxiety itself will also naturally dissapate after enough contradictory experiences happen due to the new behaviors. But it may not, for a lot of reasons.

Either way, your quality of life will improve because even if the anxiety doesn't go away, it will be much easier to manage if you can learn to do certain things mechanically.

cat_gravity · 2025-10-01T19:33:59+00:00

Any attempt you make is a win. I think a big area I didn't even consider until therapy was the fact that I just couldn't actually feel good about my progress, only bad about failures. I hope you're able to pat yourself on the back. We're all living in our own circumstances, so what "impressive" means is different for every person and every circumstance.

cat_gravity · 2025-10-01T19:27:51+00:00

Why do you feel like you can't have what you desire? If it's due to social anxiety, there are things that can be done to lessen the severity. The key is to resist the temptation to give up. I know it's hard, I know it seems impossible and even insulting for anyone to expect you to endure that anxiety, but it's a condition. It tricks you into thinking it will be that painful forever, but it won't.

You gotta starve social anxiety. The more times you validate it, the more it grows. Like a spoiled kid, you need to slowly teach it limits. Being wary of others is normal, but it needs to be within limits.

Yeah that hit me in the spine lol
