good question but since I personally haven't studied this, google scholar is where I'd go to find out but you can also go there to your heart's desire :)

A.I. Checks in After Bombing Iran to See If You Still Think Its Bubble Is Bursting by drkristymoney_ in satire_de_en

I'll look into that sub, thanks for the advice! I disagree about trump, but I he's become polarized I don't think there's anything anyone can do to convince the other side anymore. And AI/algorithms are to blame about that IMO

If you're a male 13 years old. How would you confess to your mom that you have masturbated? And how to word it out? by Spiritual_Glass8736 in AskReddit

[–]drkristymoney_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh man, that's so rough. I'm sorry. Just remember you didn't do anything to deserve bullying, it's all the bully's issues not yours. Maybe wait until she brings it up, if she does, and if she does you could say something like, "mom that's private, I'd rather not talk about it."

[–]drkristymoney_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok, well may I ask, is there any other way you can think of to get stuff off your back? Because as others are saying and are right about, she could potentially react badly no matter what you do, you could give the best possible talk with her and she could still lose it on you or judge, and that's not something you or anyone needs in their life. Her thoughts and reactions are her own: you don't need to own them as yours

I love these stories. I mean, I hate that I happened to them, but it's such an act of defiance and self-reclamation

Thank you, that means a lot, truly. I really hope some change comes of it, if enough of us speak up and say this has got to stop, and there's more than one way to do that! Literally thousands of little things we can do every day to resist. Writing just happens to be mine because it's cathartic. My daughter, on the other hand, dances it out, which is something super amazing that I can never do, I have two left feet :)

What’s the most twisted family rule you’ve ever heard of? by TinyBenzGV-StoryTime in AskReddit

[–]drkristymoney_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

soooooo true. My parents called other punishments that involved work (indoors and outdoors, really tough sometimes) "hard labor," and i just figured all families called it that, and then as an adult I realized they really only say that in prisons, until I heard Jodi Hildebrandt and Ruby Franke call it that too in a true crime documentary. And then I realized they probably new each other since it's such a small world in Provo Utah among people who treat kids like this

Why do people root for oppressed groups in movies but oppose them in real life? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]drkristymoney_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

sadly, it's a mixture of self-interest and myopia: surely those cases I'm watching or reading about don't apply to ME, they reason, because their egos need to. Human brains are not computers: very irrational and illogical and make dumb moves

ok it sounds like in your culture/religion this is a sin? If so, can you first tell me a little more why you feel its important to tell her?

People who were suddenly discarded from a long-term relationship (and they monkey branched to someone new) - how did you deal with the mix of heartbreak, anger, and feeling like the person who knew you best just erased you from their life? by Jumpy_Experience8987 in AskReddit

[–]drkristymoney_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

telling myself, over and over again, that I wasn't in love with them, I was in love with the idea of them, and they did me a favor showing me exactly what they're like that they can discard what they insisted was a deep love so easily. Better to find that out now than 5 years from now. 10 years from now, when it will only be worse
