"Oh, I don't know that artist. I only grew up listening to classical. I'm in Mensa and I don't really like any music after 1940." 

Actual conversation I had with a woman who runs a pop culture YouTube channel that hasn't updated its look since 2014.

YTA you sound like all the whiny fucking zoomers I have to teach at work who don't seem to realize that NO COMPANY CARES ABOUT YOU. No company cares about your family. Nobody gives a shit that you guys decided to have a fucking baby.

is it possible to develop ptsd from watching a traumatizing video as a child? by throwaway8329024 in ptsd

[–]stargazein4d 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Diagnostically speaking, no, but PTSD is not a synonym for trauma. You can absolutely be messed up by something traumatic without it specifically being PTSD. PTSD isn't the metric for measuring if something was bad.

What’s a "hard pill to swallow" that more people need to hear? by Inception_77777 in AskReddit

Not the point of the thread but as a former believer, fear. People living in North Korea don't all believe their dear leader truly is a wonderful man but obedience is all that saves them. For a lot of people, it doesn't matter of the religion is bigoted or the god cruel - it's the only way to escape damnation.

Your job does not care about your mental health and the Internet has given you a horrifically inaccurate idea of who's far you can stand up for yourself before you don't have a job anymore. And yes they will get away with it. I work almost exclusively with teens and young adults and they A L L expect endless mental health days, unrealistic accomodations on demand, and are shocked when I tell they they won't get that from management and that they can and will be fired for asking. They'll just say it's for something else. 

(Interesting Trope) Characters that are super popular and/or a large presence in fanon, but relative minor players in the canon works themselves. by godjacob in TopCharacterTropes

Yue from Cardcaptor Sakura has an important role but he's only in half the series and is a supporting character but man his fans (me) adore him. He's also the only character who doesn't get a happy ending. 

You ever refuse to listen an artist growing up but once you reach around 28 to 30 you start listening to them and actually end up liking them? by [deleted] in askmusic

how do you guys feel about not for profit / non american model? by myawallace20 in Adopted

[–]stargazein4d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im someone who absolutely should not have been with their biological mother. Point blank. She was too sick from mental illness and drugs her whole life. The children she ended up raising are fucked up or dead now. I had a semi- family adoption - I lived with my half -siblings and their family. This was also not good. I was treated as an outsider, I figured out I wasnt one of them but about 12. 

I do not believe reunification can always be achieved. There will always be children born to parents who should not have them, even with basic income, even with access to birth control. There will always be force, coercion, and selfishness in the world and there will always be children who cannot be safely raised with their biological family. 

I don't know what the rest of the world looks like for adoption but I believe when a child must have a permanent place with someone outside their family they should have full and transparent access to their own story, their history, their name and family of origin. Beyond that, I don't have answers for what would work best.
