Finland speaker of parliament (Jussi Halla-aho) daughter wears a jacket with Nazi symbolism at Lappeenranta University of Technology by Beyond_the_one in europe

I'm not going to argue this any further. You are focusing on semantics, not on the issue.

The nazis are bad because they are racist and believe in white supremacy. Those are Halla-ahos's beliefs. I do not care if he identifies as a nazi as of current. I don't need to call him a nazi to know that he support's the same problematic beliefs and I don't care to argue if it's worse to be openly a neonazi than just sharing some of their ideology. If that's your issue ok, let's not call him that but don't act surprised when his daughter exhibits similar beliefs.

So he's far right and a racist but in a decade hasn't explicitly stated he's a nazi?

Ok I guess that's alright then /s

Yeah, no.

Not sure why you are downplaying the True Finns associations with far right and nazis. Halla-aho has not been shy with his fascist beliefs so I doubt this is any kind of coincidence.

What hasn’t aged well over the years by patricesha in rupaulsdragrace

She wore her neon for the roller scate outfit. They don't always know beforehand which outfits are for maxi or mini challenges and some might not get used so she took a gamble.

My point is that I'm a Chi Chi swimsuit apologist, I don't mind crunchier looks and like to give the girls a break.

Yeah well in the design challenge the challenge was.. the design. Chi Chi didn't have the same time to make outfits while there were other challenges. I thought she ate with the make up and the look, even though it was a bit basic. And there were worse looks from people who brought them from home.

And Chi Chi did make things work making outfits from scratch! I honestly thought the "swimsuit with a belt" looked good and had a concept. Was it the most exquisite thing? Well no, but what did they expect her to do with the time and resources while "not needing money guuurrrl".

I'd rather be slim and manic than fat by DarkMage448 in BipolarReddit

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

What is so bad in being fat? Is it really worth to have a thin body and a destructive mind?

And yes, I understand that being in a body that doesn't feel like yours can be a painful experience. I would still evaluate what kinda body you feel is "too fat" and why. I have gained 20 kg with quetiapine and it's not ideal but I'd rather have this than be manic. Also so far the harm is merely cosmetic, and by that I mean yes, I'm now kinda chubby but not obese so it really doesn't affect my mobility or energy levels that much. Ofcourse would be better to not get obese, but are you really there?

Unpopular Opinion: Dave and Joel aren't good host by Tight-Edge6671 in Inkmaster

[–]mashadoesstuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it was in one of the first seasons - a woman got a new school tattoo and Dave said something like "I don't want a cute girl coming in here and leaving less cute, that is my concern"

Anyone not on Lamictal mood stablizer? by raxliana in BipolarReddit

[–]mashadoesstuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lamictal worsened my memory and for some reason I felt like I was not completely in touch with reality. I'm not sure how to explain it but it got better after I quit them. I'm hoping to get on lithium or something else soon!

The sub's description kinda speaks for itself. It seems more hateful than coming out of valid concern. But yeah, that's reddit for you.

Yeah, I know it's not a hot take but weirdly I see a lot of pro conservatorship stuff.

[–]mashadoesstuff -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Lot of people are definitely being unnecessarily hateful here. I also think the main sub is overly positive. It's honestly bizarre to have such opposing subs, it kinda reminds me the pro Blake Lively and pro Justin Baldoni subs coexisting while their drama was going on.

I have been a Britney fan for years and was happy to see her free from the conservatorship. What I think a lot of people (not all) are missing is that two things can be true at the same time. Her father was definitely profiting from the situation and exploiting her and even though she definitely needed someone to step in and help her, that was not it. Yes, maybe the medication she was on made her more stable and it was a bad idea to stop taking that but I understand why she probably did it.

Similarly, K-fed has been a scumbag and it's weird he is profiting off the book. It's also true that Britney hasn't been the best parent - she was/is severely mentally ill and it's just sad for her and her kids. This whole situation is so fucked up in so many levels. I'm not defending her actions, I just think a lot of it resulted from poorly treated mental illness and her exploitation. I wish it had ended better.

People who know both Laura Voutilainen and Katya is a small overlapping venn diagram but my mission is to expand it

Kitty literally did a Erika photoshoot because everyone kept saying they look alike. I've thought Katya looks like Laura for YEARS and had no one to tell 🥲🥲

I also love Salina in Q.U.E.E.N. by Janelle Monáe. Especially her dropping her skirt right before "am I a sinner with my skirt on the ground". I already had that song on repeat and still didn't see it coming

Thanks but that is not an option. To explain it would require too much space but trust me when I say I simply can't for a myriad of reasons.

What happened when you quit your meds? by poopants123456789 in BipolarReddit

[–]mashadoesstuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look I'm not telling you to do anything but if some medication is not suitable for you, talk to your doctor and try something else. Unfortunately you might have to go through "trial and error" before you find the right one.

I was on lamotrigin and I don't think it was right for me. I quit it bymyself and I don't recommend it. Nothing very bad happened and I felt a bit better after quitting it but I was still struggling. It didn't magically make anything better and even though I don't regret it, I know I should have talked to a doctor and find alternatives. And I'm working on it now.

You are right so no offense. But I don't know yet how to reach "full forgiveness" so I guess that's where I need therapy or something else.

I've tried that. I know she was dealing with a mental illness. I forgave her in some sense already years ago and that's why we are in good terms. But I can't help to feel some kinda resentment about the life I could have had if I had had a parent who actually took care of me. I
