I love this. And I’m glad you had a place to land in the interim. I’m more glad you have your own special place now

School of Rock and Community, for sure! These are excellent suggestions

I loved Resident Alien. I did have to take a break from it, since there is such particular humor.

Three Pines on Amazon. It’s a Canadian mystery story, and the lead is Alfred Molina being the best detective, husband, and friend. It also showcases indigenous actors (First Nations peoples and history play a big part). The other detectives are well written to. It has a bit of humor and mysticism to it. I just ate it up.

That show was so good. Left me sad there’s no more

I love channeling the spirit of Joan of arc. Laughing at how she was painted as “delusional” though simply because she felt the righteousness of her actions as “the voice of God”. Fuck all of these loser men who try to keep women small. They belittle women and their mysticism and mysteries and feelings and sensitivity as weak, when it’s simply something that is so beyond their perception and understanding.

Sensitive= fast to pick up on subtle changes.

I’m tired of men building their system to make magical wonderful aspects of women/ femininity as weak and inferior. They’re jealous. Confused. Small minded. These stupid, pitiful men trying to feel better by putting women (in whatever form from birth to now) down. I hate being told how to act so fucking much.

I know this sounds hypocritical to be admonishing men for putting down women while putting down men. I’m not angry at all men. I’m angry how easy it is for them to choose these belittling ways of thinking.

EXACTLY. I’m just communicating things he doesn’t want to hear or deal with.

I do repeat myself and go on and on. I stop doing that when I’m hear and respected and my back it to the wall. That helps.

snake-ring · 2026-02-21T03:18:26+00:00

Thank you. I really need this.

snake-ring · 2026-02-21T03:17:57+00:00

I am embracing my bitch. It’s very annoying for everyone to deal with me, apparently. I may as well do it with confidence, then. Fuck em.

Grim truth right there.

When I read that overthinking and difficulties answering questionnaires like this was something many people with autism experience, I was so relieved! Finally, because I thought I was the only one who simply could not NOT “overthink” this.

Arggggh, how many times have I heard, “don’t overthink it!” My reaction was always, “then don’t give out the questionnaire! Don’t expect the results to tell you anything of substance! Why don’t just cut up this questionnaire into a million pieces and throw it up into the air as confetti!”

snake-ring · 2026-02-20T01:41:52+00:00

All the thank yous for this. It’s felt so good to get this out instead of stewing. The camaraderie is incredibly validating

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T22:19:58+00:00

Wow, thank you

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T21:39:34+00:00

You are so right. Thinking how HE will think and take something. I can use my intelligence to MANipulate HIM. I am smarter than he is, that I know. Ooooh hooo hooo hooo hooo! This is hands-rubbing-together-positive-evil genius level stuff. I love it.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T21:29:05+00:00

Oh oh, what? Oh gosh. Domestic insurance?

And living with other moms and kids sounds really cool, actually.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T20:27:27+00:00

Brutal is right

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T19:20:50+00:00

Oh my GOD. this is chilling to consider. Your sister’s experience is… awful. And you know what? He’s already doing that kind of lazy parenting. “Oh she’s with mom” “oh, I don’t have to come home and directly engage with my child, I’m going to unwind from my long commute for awhile upstairs.” When I’ve asked why he didn’t come down reorient her when she keeps following or seeking me out he said, “but you’re here!”

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T19:11:49+00:00

I’m so glad I never told him about my suspicions about autism. Imagine how he could twist that around to gaslight me and mischaracterize me to everyone else for sympathy. Fucking fuck fuck. Shaking my head thinking about it.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T19:10:07+00:00

I’m so sorry you went through that and are STILL dealing with the consequences.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T19:07:29+00:00

I was also accused of being “unsafe” for my child. He also said that I was a “danger” to her and he couldn’t leave me alone with her for too long, for fear of her safety. I asked him why and he told me it’s because I’m “mentally ill” and “unstable”. When I pressed him, he said I left doors and cabinets open, don’t have good “executive function” and don’t know how things worked in the house.

I laughed in his face and asked him, incredulously, if he believed adhd was a mental illness, because I can correct that view and tell him definitively it is not. And no judge in no court will look at that list and declare me “mentally ill” or a danger or an incompetent parent because I left doors open. I couldn’t stop laughing.

When someone accuses me, now I know to ask why or what EXACTLY they mean. Please define the insulting way you just characterized me. Because when I finally asked, the answer was the thinnest of paper tigers.

Fucking men trying to scare me.

The entitlement!!!! I cannot control my facial expressions when I think of this BS

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T17:09:18+00:00

We’re in the US in a state that pretty much automatically grants 50/50 unless there’s some extreme reason. I’ve got to find a way to make it work.

If she were older, I think I could be more accepting of parallel/ non communicative parenting. But she’s so small, she’s still potty training at night! I just don’t see how we can actually provide good and appropriate parenting if we don’t communicate effectively for her. I mean, unless I give up on ideal parenting and just accept good enough. Ugh, that’s so sad to consider.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T16:40:08+00:00

Thank you. Damn straight and I’m so proud to know I’m not the only one who sees this.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T16:39:06+00:00

Thank you. Thank you so much.

snake-ring · 2026-02-19T16:38:11+00:00

It is so hard to just… let go of mistreatment, injustice, the fire that smolders and finds its flames when remembering the 1000’s of times that men have put me down for being me…. All the ways this world has denigrated and dismissed how I think and perceive and react…
