My mom graduated at 34 and when her study group asked if she wanted to go out for drinks after and she said she had to pick up her kids and said how old we were they were like “yes teen mom succeeding!” She said she was 33 and they just went silent. Thankfully I got her genetics

This is routine behavior from police. They routinely assault or threaten people who are rendering first aid I watched a man die this way because police pulled me away violently, then blocked traffic so the ambulance couldn’t get to him. He died. They stood there while he died.
@charliclement_
I missed 3 weeks because I caught the flu from a classmate next to me who didn’t want to mess up her perfect attendance my mom also got incredibly sick and missed 2 weeks of work.
We got behind on bills for months over it.

Damn. Almost as if women’s issues don’t affect you, a man. 👍
Had it happen to me, had it happen to friends, had it happen to my mom. But cool dude YOU haven’t seen it so obviously it’s just paranoia 🙄

Super convenient for a condition which makes it harder to do things like make tons of calls and follow through with things.
Hopefully next month will be a bit easier on you

Super great that his “helping” you actually just hurt your hand. Which is what you use for your mobility. Super helpful random guy 🙄
Hoping you heal quickly.

That this was common stuff around the time that movie came out?
That non lesbians were called lesbian slurs and such for not fitting a social norm since you asked why they would call her d*ke if she wasn’t lesbian.
Like?
@Schmilly2
So since being homeless I used to sit on the ground a lot, since I was homeless. Now I sit on the ground a lot because I work outside in a city and the ground is there, it’s often shaded, I can sit and have a snack. And people are REALLY WEIRD about it.

My fiance lost his uncle, who was more like a dad to him.
One of the things he most consistently says is he’s disgusted by the xenophobia that followed and how people used the dead to spread hatred, how they demanded Muslims all apologize. Which you are doing now.
@JoeyxRoss
lol, man we had too many to count.
Ugh, I got called a fascist for having a “please only couch surf for 2 weeks or if you stay longer either pay $10/week towards utilities and communal stuff, or do an hour of house work or group cooking a week.
Which was pretty loosely asked
@SupernovaMomma
He’s obviously intelligent because electrical requires training, and math, he can do work on cars, and is creative, he’s handsome, he handled that criticism well.
What a catch. I hope he finds a woman who isn’t classist who sees his qualities
@haddypdaddy
@AKBrews
They don’t do bloodwork monitoring with prescription bc either.
I couldn’t get a follow up for months to get a different brand of bc when I didn’t respond well to one I was on.
If you don’t respond well you stop taking it 🙄
@TheMelWestbrook

Then ask them and don’t say it to the kid who’s likely going to be nervous asking for help after that if he ever can’t open something.
Sometimes things you normally can open get stuck and you need help
@haddypdaddy
@AKBrews
Not sure how to explain this to you another way.
They don’t do bloodwork for BC prescriptions, that’s not a standard thing at any gynecologist or doctor. And since insurance limits where they’ll cover, it’s also common to have a 30-60 day wait to get seen at many clinics.
@clhubes
Literally all I want is a house like this. A yard just big enough for a small pollinator and veggie garden and a space for dogs. A bedroom and combo sewing/music/guest room, basement for bikes tools & spare freezer. This house sold for $21000 in 1970 it’s estimate is $495,000 now
@DeetoriaDee
I mask everywhere. I’ve not been sick in 3 years. Roommate in the last month stopped masking most places while lying knowing that was a non negotiable household condition.
I’m now sick because he brought home a virus

@Maggiemarbles
Face AND hair. So it’s like she can’t even just wipe that off it’s just gunked up in her hair too. Just an extra layer of meanness.
Plus cakes can often have dowels for support so not only is it emotionally cruel but you’re risking stabbing your wife in the eye with a stick
@getthesurgery
@writerbxtch
There’s rarely anything else said, like if you didn’t say “grandma that’s incredibly racist, we need to discuss your behavior or I’m going to have to stop visiting” it’s just “my grandma is racist, but I go to every holiday and say nothing”
@ZacharyJLuna
This is so frustrating because when I went to John fucking Hopkins CANCER CENTER for screening none of the staff seeing me had masks.
A CANCER CENTER.
Honestly that was more depressing than finding out that I had cancer.
And that’s a sad statement.
@hurleyquinnzel
@hoochiemonsta
I got beat up for being a lesbian and called a d*ke a lot in highschool.
I am in fact, also not a lesbian. Tbf, I’d assume I was a lesbian if I met me too but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@AKBrews
I’m someone who’s gone to gynecologists for 20 years.
I’ve kind of got a grip on what’s standard for BC now seeing as I have had it prescribed for now nearly 20 years.
But by all means get snippy about something you don’t know about first hand
@UtahSanders
@hebagowayed
Except you did.
By saying her post was less credible because she didn’t express the emotion you wanted her to how you wanted it you are in fact demanding to see her express the sentiment you want in order to give validation to her.
And you can keep your BS sorrow for the dead/
@OnlyAWorldAway
Look I’m autistic and adhd kinda forget to drink water, and I work outside meaning I need more water than I usually get and even I have never managed to fail my own health this much! Even when I was a real “G” cooking on gas stoves for a living.
Wtf is this?!
@NathOnSecurity
So glad I started my period during the two years I was homeschooled because a badly timed sneeze and it was the elevator scene from the shining.
Bathroom every hour or so, just absolute brutality from my uterus, I would have dropped out

They’re making laws to ban queer kids from simply existing and calling queer people groomers and this shit exists openly and unchallenged. Cool
@charliclement_
It was just me and my mom at the time and money was super super tight so basically anything happened and we got behind on bills. I missed work at the pizza shop job I had, she missed work, bills couldn’t get paid.
We had to both sleep in the living room together/
@stevenspohn
I’d be so furious.
Like, what if you like many other disabled folks worked from home? Were having another medical appointment, in a shower with often takes longer as a disabled person. Or one of the other myriad of reasons. Like ?!?!?!

Fwiw, tell her I’m so proud of her for choosing herself and hey safety.

Yes and people are also concerned about being struck by lightning so they do things like not take baths, and not stand out under trees, and if there were in an area with exposure to lightning strikes they’d have valid concerns for their safety.
@sheededonem
This makes me think of that poem someone’s like 80 year ol church going gran wrote about how their grandkid is “they” and special in their own way and it can be a bit hard to say but it’s important that she calls them they or whatever.
Like here’s an old lady using poetry /
@prntgdcolonized
This is someone who respects you deeply!
Like I love doing favors for friends, but there’s a limit on what’s okay to ask for free.
Like want me to teach you to change oil? Bring the supplies and a coffee. Want me to replace your alternator, slide me some cash
@haddypdaddy
@AKBrews
It’s clear you don’t know what you’re talking about based on the fact that you’re stating something that is not standard as necessary for bc prescriptions.
Blood tests aren’t standard.
@Ranting_Trans
Speaking to a person who deserves your respect, just because we don’t understand someone sometimes doesn’t mean they deserve any less respect and kindness” she turned to me and said “sweetie I’m sorry she spoke like that to you” we talked about my trip, she showed me her /
@UtahSanders
@hebagowayed
So you are in fact demanding she change it to be more credible to you and other non Muslim white people.
She doesn’t need to change anything.
Her statement was completely credible as is. The fact that you’re invalidating her credibility because of your feelings is bs.
@charliclement_
So we didn’t have to chop wood because we both had REALLY high fevers. So the living room was the one room we could keep warm enough to not be absolutely fuckin freezing.
But yeah, G-d forbid the girl next to me mess up her perfect attendance record 🙄
@charliclement_
Because we were so incapable of getting through the house to get things like water or Gatorade that whoever was less weak would get something for both of us.
And our wood stove was heat source and we were too sick to do much about keeping the fire lit so we just kept it small /

When I was getting my passport photo taken the lady at the counter was being really rude and was like “ma’am sir, whatever you are” turned to the lady next to me who was picking up photos and said “I just don’t even know what that is” this older woman said “a person, you’re/

Or just putting their animals name for pet photos, “butters on his tree” lot less informative than “a big orange fluffy tabby cat sitting on top of a tall cat tree staring at the camera from above”
@Imani_Barbarin
Like can it be uncomfortable to be around someone screaming while in crisis? Yes. It absolutely can be.
But being uncomfortable is not a reason to engage in violence.
Being homeless sucks, being homeless itself can fuel mental crisis, he was yelling about his conditions sucking
@Parkerlawyer
My ex testified that he was only texting to make sure I was okay.
When the texts and number of texts and repeated replies to stop contacting me were read into evidence that man’s lawyer looked uncomfy.

Photos of her family and grandkids and talked about her own trip to Germany years ago when her daughter was in the airforce in the late 80s. She was so genuine and kind, she said the thought it was great younger people could live more freely and said it’s good to test /

Many wonderful people don’t have good or safe families. Not everyone is so lucky.
And because domestic abusers both isolate their victims from friends and family they often don’t feel like they can reach out.
Domestic abusers also often target them AT friends/families house

Which is really disappointing because Frankfurt has a really thriving Arabic population, you’d hope that it would be mildly less xenophobic but apparently not.
I hope you’ll find a good spot to settle down in and not have anyone say more bullshit like this agsin
@JoeyxRoss
But then the people all crashing on my couches decided I was a fascist.
Like yall, I’m askin for $10/w to go ti house supplies food beers and utilities or just like take out the recycling and trash, tidy the living room a bit and maybe sweep for 10 minutes
@hi_its_annaleah
Pretty much they’re only seeing super burnt out autistic people who are depressed and anxious because they’re living without accommodations
@Ranting_Trans
Which to me is really important, that even without understanding gender outside the cis binary, seeing that someone is equally human and respecting them on that basis is important. If you only respect people you understand and only then humanize them, that’s shit.

It’s a fundamental failure at understanding bread and roses. Poor people deserve bread and roses too, but we gain that by better wages, so we have money to get our roses. Not by also engaging in poverty wages towards others.

My partner had to do a small loan for his sisters husband’s bachelor party to go skiing. The only reason he did it was because he’s a very sweet big brother but it was like a $600 trip.
We are talking about marriage and if he does a party I know that man will keep it cheap.

Seriously unless a patient has a history of actual addiction and doesn’t want opiates for relapse risks, just use opiates for a few days.
There’s also so many other meds and forms of relief that aren’t opiates and also not Tylenol that can be used.

Also the ability to take time to travel is a luxury here.
Even if you get pto you’re often punished for using it or have policies that make it hard to use to travel distance. Like having to request a week ahead for each day of travel.
