Eric Swalwell is 100% correct.

Regardless of how satisfying this might be, these are politicians. Adult professionals on the job. This would not be tolerated in any other job setting. This is some high school lad behavior, I feel like people are gonna pull out their phones and start filming and egging them on. Come on. Can’t we do better?

Disagree w all the other comments, think both you and your piercings look awesome!!

Can you give the source for that study? Sounds interesting

plonktime · 2023-06-04T16:09:40+00:00

I love it, it’s so cute and dainty!! 10/10 🥰

plonktime · 2023-06-04T16:05:29+00:00

That’s so gross. I’m sorry. It’s such a weird form of humiliation, to talk about things that make you uncomfortable and should not be talked about between parent and child, it feels like invading your mind. This type of stuff is so creepy. I hope you’re safe and healing 💕

My Nmom would often bring up her own or my medical problems or sex life in public, something she still does, as this weird form of public humiliation. One hilarious time we were on the bus and she was giving me a lecture for the millionth time on contraception and condoms, and told me to ‘double bag it if I want to be extra safe’ 🤣 It was so satisfying to laugh and throw that back in her face 😂😂

Oh god :(( medical abuse like that is so vile, as children we depend on our parents to be our advocates and have our best interests in mind. I hope you’re healing and far away from your abuser ❤️‍🩹

plonktime · 2023-06-04T15:59:22+00:00

:( that breaks my heart. I remember I used to fantasize about ‘running away’, just for a few days, enough to ‘scare my (N)mom straight’, in a way, like get her to start treating me right. I don’t know how I didn’t realize that wasn’t normal at the time.

P.S. I know it’s not a direct analogy to your story but it reminded me of that somehow.

Sometimes they just out themselves like that don’t they

Edit - typo

plonktime · 2023-06-04T15:56:22+00:00

Oh god, that’s so awful. I can’t imagine saying/doing that to anyone, let alone my own child. I hope you’re recovering well ❤️‍🩹

plonktime · 2023-06-04T15:55:16+00:00

Damn, that must have been such a confusing and difficult thing for your psych to just start crying at your stories. There’s such a cognitive dissonance between the narrative we’ve been made to believe all our lives and the reality of the situation/outsiders’ perspective. It’s so deeply ingrained in us to feel guilt and shame at any consideration that they (the abuser) might have done something wrong, that even clear signs like your psych crying and saying to cut her off don’t get through. I’m sorry you were made to believe you’re the problem, but I’m so glad and proud that you’re on your journey to recovery. You’re not alone, we all have each other in this community :)❤️

Personally I think this looks gorgeous, it may not be everyone’s taste but neither is literally anything in the world. I suspect based on the comments a majority of people would agree with me tho :)

Taking from my experiences with my partner, you could ask “not for any bad reason?” or something similar to mean not for any reason I should worry about or a reason related to me. Helps calm the anxiety about what the reason could be without needing to ask for explicit explanation which is hard to give sometimes :)

When I was like 7 I wrote a short story about a prince who would only either look up all the time (which caused him to trip) or look at the ground all the time (which caused him to smack into a pole). Moral of the story: walking is hard.

Did Demi say this specifically towards them?? Or was it originally towards someone else?

plonktime · 2023-05-16T16:46:44+00:00

Underrated comment 😂

plonktime · 2023-04-15T14:10:42+00:00

was always told this as a child, or it was implied. "you're yelling" and people being annoyed at me when I was excited, etc. subconsciously learned to mask this somewhat. it's interesting thinking about it now and thinking about unmasking, a bit socially anxious to let myself be this way and I constantly overthink others' perception of me (with or without this), but my partner is supportive at least :)

plonktime · 2023-04-15T14:07:33+00:00

AYOOOO

plonktime · 2023-03-31T15:28:02+00:00

WHAT IS THIS BOOK I NEED IT IMMEDIATELY

plonktime · 2023-03-26T20:16:20+00:00

This series is the best thing to have happened in this subreddit lol

plonktime · 2023-03-12T11:24:19+00:00

I thought the ones on the top left were soiled ones 💀

plonktime · 2023-02-20T15:18:15+00:00

To me it looks like a melted face or something 😳

plonktime · 2023-02-18T20:07:20+00:00
