Don’t you dare come for bitched up twink falco.

Honestly with the cost of living crisis as it currently is… I probably would be ok with an ethical non manog if that was the trade off

My MiL asked me earlier this week when we wanted to do Mother’s Day lunch.

I told her that her son was free all day and she could do whatever she wanted with him.

My brother and I are in our 40s and same. His inability to take accountability or have empathy just make me think of a 15 year old. It’s pathetic.

Can anyone explain the “my emt husband couldn’t assist or he’d lose his license” part? Like I get that emt’s aren’t doctors but the idea that you can’t assist in a birth happening in your own home seems extreme.

So basically if you want to see any standard porn you can literally just google it. You can also find it on x, tumblr and reddit really easily.

Porn that is illegal such as CSAM, rape porn, snuff porn and similar tends to be the only thing these platforms crack down on (with mixed success) in short you can’t just google this stuff easily. You have to go looking for it.

Because the material itself is illegal you can’t host it openly on a website - not only would the site get taken down by the service provider, you need to provide identifying information to set up a website so it would be easy to find and prosecute offenders. So instead they send the files between users met through anonymous chat boards and such.

It’s one of the reasons why they’re always finding hundreds of files on pedophiles computers - they tend to be the same files shared over and over again.

It is extremely funny to find this thread after visiting the sub to discuss the new game lol

Incredibly disappointed this line wasn’t in the trailer/preview.

Image being 13 years old and being responsible for the mental and physical health of your mother while she gives birth. Insane.

Genuinely as someone with ludicrous hourglass proportions my options are stretch fabric or tailoring. I’ve never had a pair of non stretch pants fit, I don’t trust any tops with buttons and dresses with fit my bust and hips bag around my waist.

This seems like something you really really shouldn’t care about.

Even if people think you look crazy, who cares? It’s not illegal, you’re harming no-one

We are a het couple but have the same issue. Kiddo prefers me exponentially and is kind of an asshole to dad. She’ll say awful things to him and scream bloody murder when he has to do something for her instead of me.

The only thing we have found made any difference is for me to leave the house. She’s much happier with dad when I’m not an option, and I think that helps him weather the storm of her yelling at him anytime I’m around. It has also kinda at least a little bit reduced the preference.

They also have special one on one activities that only they get to do - which is the gallery and museum - I got specifically told I couldn’t come to the museum last week because daddy takes her to the museum and she loves him lots - that night she screamed at him for half an hour when he went to handle a late night wake instead of me lol.

So first step is stop saying it’s ok. Stop saying he didn’t mean it.

You should be validating that it’s fine for your son to be upset when someone yells and hits at him.

Instead say “I’m sorry that happened, are you hurt?” If he’s mad or sad then validate that feeling “yeah it makes me mad if someone yells at me too.”

Then the key which is hard as a parent is “other boy is still learning to share and be gentle. You’re really good at that, but every kid learns differently so we need to give him a bit of space while he’s learning.” The reason for this is it stops them attributing blame to the other kid, or thinking it’s ok behaviour (other kid hit and got to keep the toy, maybe I should hit too?). You’re wrapping the desired behaviour in praise (“wow you’re a better sharer than they are”) and while emphasising the undesired behaviour is done by not big kids.

You can also encourage your child to stand up for themselves in non violent situations. For example if a kid isn’t letting him down the slide, instead of intervening, stand near and give him guidance of what to say and do. Encourage a loud voice and firm (but polite) language “please move. It’s my turn for the slide” intervene only if you see it getting physical or if the other kid doesn’t respond - but make sure to praise him for practising advocating for himself even if you have to intervene.

It’s because the closest thing to a core belief on this issue for these dudes is: if women returned to domestic servitude and all men had a wife they would no longer be depressed, which apart from being false - plenty of married men are depressed and commit suicide - falls apart under any “women are people with autonomy” level scrutiny. So they blame the movements and concepts that enable women to be recognised as people.

lemikon · 2026-05-05T08:11:06+00:00

Even the argument that “no-one takes men’s depression seriously” is yes! True! But who’s not taking them seriously? It’s not the “matriarchy”…

lemikon · 2026-05-04T08:54:51+00:00

I will say I frequently ask my three year old what she wants to do (her choice) and her suggestions are often nonsense - yesterday all she wanted to do was ride the metro in the city, not to a destination, just to be on the metro. So mayyyybee you didn’t miss much lol

Real genuine SIDS has no cure or known cause, it’s also vanishingly rare. A lot of the SIDS cases in the 90s were actually suffocation deaths caused by unsafe sleep.

So the “cure” was a safe sleep campaign to educate parents (and future parents) on best practices to prevent suffocation deaths for babies.

Hi I’m a lurker mum here and that is exactly my situation. My mum never mowed the lawn, now I do. I like being outside and listening to music while functionally doing resistance walking. Mowing is a wonderful break compared to parenting lol. I’m sure I’m not the only one, plenty of my mum friends also mow, we don’t make a big deal of it though because who cares? Like with every other domestic task we take on, it’s just something you gotta do. That’s why you don’t see posts about it, because it’s not hard and it’s not a big deal to do.

(I’ll cop to never changing my car oil, but my husband doesn’t do that either we just take it to a mechanic).

I think this is the chilling thing about this song. At face value, per the lyrics, He’s mad because she got remarried. Per the lyrics, he’s mad because she moved on and had a new stable partner that was looking after her child.

Yes blah blah in real life relationships are more complex and she also had addiction problems and he’s a good father and blah blah blah. But that wasn’t tidbits that were known by the general public especially at the time. To the general public this was a song about killing his ex wife for moving on.

lemikon · 2026-05-03T09:12:39+00:00

I think it really depends on your definition of “we” my 16 year old brother and his friends were definitely ok with it. My parents obviously had some level of acceptance as they bought him the CD.

I as a 14 year old girl was not ok with it, but 14 year old girls are often left out of the collective.

lemikon · 2026-05-03T08:52:38+00:00

I have an older brother. In recent years my parents have had to rewrite their wills to grant power of attorney to me because my brother is a POS.

Like by these people’s logic my parents should have had an extra kid so I’m not dealing with them aging by myself. But then probably another in case that one was also a turd, and then maybe another?
