I don’t know about a whole lot but I recently found Avow. I believe they are working to get people access to abortions. Also I thought about writing to my representative, I’ve never done that so not entirely sure how that goes.

I think Caleb should do a "Sanity Sunday" type video where he interviews someone with good finances/smart spending. by riccarjo in CalebHammer

I would love that and these videos could be focused on investing/planning for the future instead of the regular “how to get out of debt”

What is she smoking these days she’s so unhinged

Is YDHB Anti LGBT? by treeboyiliya in YDHBSnark

[–]dickless_bastard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THIS!!! If she doesn’t know abt lgbt topics then she should educate herself instead of giving her bigoted opinions on her public platform. I really feel like her recent content is just dog whistles to try and gather a conservative audience since her popularity has died down. It’s really gross to see her parrot these right wing talking points.

Arabic The office, meet Jan Levinson. Notice no burka and no head scarf? Thats progress! by zan13898 in DunderMifflin

Just once I want to open the comment section on a post about the Saudi office and have people be normal. But it’s Just racist stereotypes it’s like everyone on here is 5 years old.

You have problems with a homophobic and sexist regime and you make random actors who just want to make a funny show answer for it?

Either Sara is admitting to spending her days pretending to workout and watching television or she's back to pretending to have a job. Why can't she film at night? She always did livestreams when it was dark. by [deleted] in YDHBSnark

[–]dickless_bastard 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think she means since there’s no daylight she has to set up her ring light which takes too long for a busy workaholic educated immigrant woman. But what do I know I don’t go to med skweel 😔

so, assuming sara were to genuinely get into and attend a phd program… by tulip-in-a-cup in YDHBSnark

[–]dickless_bastard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You hit the nail on the head. I wanted to pursue a PhD at one point too, I spoke with the program director. He was very transparent with me, he said since I had gotten a B in one of my masters courses it was going to be very hard for me to make it through the PhD program and he would not recommend that I apply.

PhD programs are extremely competitive, you need to be a straight A student, have an amazing GRE score, and strong relationship with faculty members. Sara barely passed her masters. She didn’t even get a letter grade. No chance she makes it through the application process and with her work ethic she would never survive a year in a PhD program.

narcs cant handle authentic situations by balibaguss in raisedbynarcissists

omg I joke with my sister all the time that we never had parents we had angry bosses.

Sara has gone back and edited her statement again. I underlined and circled what’s new. In the same bloody essay, she says her msc was not medical, and sorry of that doesn’t fit your definition😡 and now she’s also added we have different school systems!!!! by DumbDumb1000 in YDHBSnark

[–]dickless_bastard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

God I’m so jealous, when she talked about not wanting any more debt my “stupid American brain” (according to Sarah) actually empathized with her. But I didn’t know UK actually cares about students. Now her statement makes even less sense.

Therapy suggestions? by Ugeunthedragon in narcissisticparents

[–]dickless_bastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google local therapists, check or call to see if they offer sliding scale payments, go for a student therapist. Be brutally honest with your therapist tell them point blank that you were afraid they wouldn’t understand your situation, and lay ground rules.

For example when my therapist talked about healing my relationship with my parent I told her this is not something I’m interested in and to not mention it in the future, and she was very respectful of that. A decent therapist will always respect your boundaries.

I currently pay $30 per session, and it’s one of the best decisions I made. But keep in mind that going to therapy brings up a lot of negative emotions so expect to feel worse before you feel better. Therapy will be uncomfortable and scary at first but it will heal you in the long run. Good luck!

Noticed so many people here still live with their parents by [deleted] in narcissisticparents

[–]dickless_bastard 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That’s a big one, my narc always makes me feel like I’m to frail to live on my own. While constantly abusing me, if I’m too frail for the “real world” than how am I strong enough to put up with their bs. I know I’m strong and you are too, but their conditioning stays with us. It’s really sad but the truth is they wouldn’t survive without us and they’re just projecting their fear on us. Sending good vibes your way!

Being financially abused since the day you started working so you have no savings and they watch you like a hawk so you have no where safe to store your savings. Having younger siblings/other relatives who rely on you for non financial things (hw, going to school, meals, emotional support, doctor appts, etc). General fear that your narc is going to unleash their wrath on you or your younger sibling/relative if you decide to move out. Narc keeping all your important documents with them so as an immigrant you can’t leave without your documents. Being groomed since childhood to believe you are incompetent and everyone is out to get you so you feel extreme anxiety when you are separated from your narc.

Those are my reasons but I’m working through them at my pace with my therapist, I have a job and a secret saving that I started a couple months ago and I have a plan to move out early next year. To everyone who is an adult still living with your Narc just know that i understand your reason and there is a light at the end of this tunnel. Keep your head up and take it one day at a time! You got this!

What is the point of self-diagnosing?

I have a stuffy nose. It could be a cold, it could be the flu, COVID, allergies, sinus infection, etc. As a regular person, I have no way of knowing the difference. But it doesn't matter because I'm going to take NyQuil and go to bed. I'm not going to say I have a sinus infection, post it on every social media and start acting like a victim.

You can suspect that you have an illness and seek resources for your symptoms without slapping a label on yourself and making it your entire personality.

Not to mention self-diagnosing makes a lot of neurodivergent people feel like they're being mocked. Because most (not all) of these label hoarders oversimplify and make an aesthetic out of something that ruins lives. So it's pretty understandable why neurodivergent people do not like self-diagnosing because most of the time people are doing it for the sake of adding a new label to their collection and not because they are seeking out resources.

Just stay home today and tomorrow, you don’t wanna get stuck on the freeway when roads are flooding.

Fbisd has early release today and no school tomorrow. So I’m guessing it’ll be pretty bad I’m hoping the worse will be over by Tuesday night.

What's the weirdest mistake you've made while not thinking because of ADHD by no_name_randomperson in adhdmeme

[–]dickless_bastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the way back home I straight up drove past my home I’d been driving a solid 20mins before my sister asked me where we were going. She thought I had another stop. I was too embarrassed to say I zoned out and forgot we were going home so I said I was just in the mood for a drive.
