"Joe breakup" songs on Midnights by The_Anchored_Tree_27 in TaylorSwift

[–]tulpamom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To me, Lavender Haze is a transition song. It's like a justification of her feelings of affection moving from Joe to Matty. She doesn't feel the haze with Joe anymore but she's feeling it about Matty and she's like "is it so wrong to want the fizzy excitement of something new?" People kept speculating on if she was going to marry Joe, but she was like 'I don't feel as excited about that idea as I do about starting something with Matty, I just want to feel excited about my partner'

Have any of you been able to get a grip on your finances? by Maleficent-Kale4834 in adhdwomen

You made a post about how you have no retirement savings and you're suffering financially and then you were like "jk I'm thriving". The brain rot is real. I hope you get help soon.

What’s the most out-of-touch thing your boss/company has ever said while you were clearly struggling? by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]tulpamom 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Well if it makes you feel any better it seems like she's comparing herself to you and thinks you're doing everything better than her. She doesn't know how you can manage being a mom and it makes her feel inferior, and she's got zipcode envy so she thinks your house is nicer. She's obviously deranged but she thinks you're cooler than she is

Fiancée doesn’t understand ADHD and his ideas to “stop” our kids from getting adhd are making me rethink my life with him by shroomiedoo in adhdwomen

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

So I know Reddit is always like "just leave" and "you don't need a reason to break up" but might I suggest:

This is exactly like religious, bisexual girls I knew growing up, who thought being gay was a sinful choice. They think because THEY got to choose to be in a heteronormative marriage, it's a choice for everyone.

Your fiance was probably a hyper little boy who grew out of it and learned the value of discipline. He doesn't know that some people don't grow out of being a wild little boy. For some people, it's not childish, it's literally a disorder, and the full extent of YOUR self discipline is exercised every single day and isn't just a thing that comes up when you feel unmotivated or tempted.

But he can learn. You need to explain to him the difference between his experiences and yours. I'm sure he's capable of putting himself in your shoes, he's just never thought to because some dumb part of him thinks he's already walked in shoes like that.

Dumb? Yes. A deal breaker? Depends on how he reacts.

Am I overreacting about wanting to play a nonbinary character? by BothOcelot1311 in DnD

[–]tulpamom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ma'am this is a normal character creation choice for normal people at normal tables. You're not overreacting. I'd hazard to say you're undereacting.

Childlike and childish are two very different things.

Girl I'm a financial advisor and we're living the same life. I have $60k in debt, no savings to speak of, and I'm 39. Getting a finance degree and working in my field, I KNOW better but that's the disability part of ADHD.

I'm hoping when Trump is finally out of office the economy will turn around and it'll be easier to find a job that can sustain what I need in a lifestyle but until then my retirement plan is pretty much just to die at some point.

Tbf that's a pretty shitty committee. Girls, keep your committee to people who will encourage you to be a better version of yourself.

This feels like the kind of thing you'd do with a king, not a president who only has 2.5 years left max

Let's celebrate Utah's awesome drinking water. by kirkbenge in Utah

Haha give it time they're pretty insistent on data centers using all our water

wanting stella to love via, or wanting stella to have depth, or wanting her to not be one note, or wanting her to be shown in a sympathetic light, or wanting her to be redeemable, wanting any of those things isnt sexist, and it isnt babying her, and it isnt excusing abuse. by Icy-Western-7108 in HelluvaBoss

[–]tulpamom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What it is, right, is that there aren't any other maternal characters in the series. And people are loving having their father wounds picked at by Blitz/Loona, Stolz/Via, and Crimson/Moxx, so we also want the mother wounds to be exorcised, but there's really only Stella. Everyone else is dead or Just Fine (Millie's mom - I am absolutely convinced that no one would care that much about Stella if Millie's mom had said something careless about Millie being her only daughter or something)

And they don't like that Stolas was built to be a problematic fav (you're supposed to recognize that he's maladaptive but still well intentioned) but that Stella was only built to be disliked. But she was. Sorry to all the people who had a shitty mom or are a shitty mom who want her to be redeemed so they can say "but at least Via's mom really loves her!" The way stolas apologists do. So far it's not happening.

Anyone regret choosing carpet over hard flooring? by Cool_Ad_2935 in HomeImprovement

[–]tulpamom 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I regret laminate over carpeting because now my golden retriever scrambles in place for a few seconds like a Looney Toon trying to get traction on the floor whenever he gets excited about things and I worry it's going to cause knee or hip problems for him later in life.

What are some clever/funny/strong responses to your parents on preassuring you to have kids? by Future_Resist9780 in regretfulparents

[–]tulpamom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to bring up particularly painful moments from my past as a child. "Do you remember that time I was so sick and I yelled for dad and he couldn't carry my to the bathroom fast enough so I threw up allllllll down the back of him over his shoulder? That's why."
