Very relateable lol

lookin' good, dad!

Yeah, it's like the moment you become open to the idea of there being more, you suddenly just. Become aware of each other. Like looking up from writing in your notebook in school, and you suddenly realize someone else is sitting at the same table and you didn't notice them sit down.

And, to add insult to injury, we were told "Be grateful that you have anything at all, stop being so entitled."

All while more and more of what we were promised is dragged further and further out of reach. And then we get called lazy for the fact that we aren't as successful as other generations.

How about a Kilt?? They're wonderfully breezy and i personally vouch for them, the heavier ones can be pleasantly warm

This is straight up dystopian.

"Be happy! Or else! :)"

You deserve all of the scratches and pets. Got a favorite spot??

.... to recieve them, i mean.

Avergae millenial experience be like

Hey real quick question; what's the tax bracket of your investors and does it have anything to do with why you're writing this article RIGHT NOW???

if you dissociate does the face pattern change to the old school "broadcast interrupted" colored bars, blank-channel TV static, or do your facial features start bouncing around like the DVD screensaver

Also the introduction of his song is one of the best done tonal shifts with foreshadowing i've seen in a LONG time.

Being part of a system can be strange.

Sometimes you have group therapy to discuss and unpack your trust issues.

And sometimes you have to fight with a kid for control of your hand at the store because the last time you let them have pickle-flavored snacks you got minor vinegar burns in your mouth

Best place for them, regardless!

It's where you keep the anti-grav engines

In short, thank you. You're amazing, all of you. And i hope to help make the world a more accepting place.

Like the analogy of judging a fish based on its ability to climb a tree, you're expected to behave and present a certain way, and anything else makes you wrong and broken.

No longer forcing yourself to live like everyone else, though?

Like a weight has been lifted, and things finally make sense.

If it helps, i'm glad to find others who are like this. We've only known about this for a little over a year in our case. It's been... tough to come to terms with.

So much of media paints it in a very bad light, but since learning of it and leaning into it, it has really only helped.

To the surprise of absolutely fucking nobody.
I'm tryin to maintain a community on mine, but I swear to fuck, this surveillance state shit is making me want to gauge the eyes out of every silicon valley CEO.

,,, okay, more than I already did. FFS will you fucking losers cut this shit out already?

"Oh, they're just doing it for the 18+ stuff"

Oh yeah??

Remind me: Who exactly is it who defines what counts as 18+?? And if you think they're not going to move those goalposts like teenagers trying to win at musical chairs, please share what you are smoking.

The people who want you to sanitize yourself for the sake of their comfort and worldview already do not like you, and nothing will make them truly happy with you.

Live authentically as an act of resistance, and it will help free those around you.

So be yourself, loud and weird and REAL.

unrivaled champion of guess who (1/2)

this is really sweet! we've had a few of these moments with our husband who's seemingly able to pick up on minute behavioral changes the instant they happen. He doesn't know all of us that well yet, but i can't wait to see what he does when it happens.

Y'all are too cute together, jsyk

And that's not even taking into account identity theft or people who have already escaped their abusers who can now be found and identified freely.

So, on the off chance you still see no problem with this, i strongly advise you to think about what it would be like to live in that situation.

"Why do you need it?"

Which would then alert the abuser to the fact that their victim is attempting to seek support.

Asking for this is essentially demanding that vulnerable people identify themselves to their abusers.

It is painting a target on them and pushing them into the open.

I would also like any of you who do not already see the problem with this to consider:

What would an adult (abuser) ask the moment their child (or spouse, let's be real here) asks to obtain a government ID.

And it is the same question WE got when asking to have any of our needs met growing up.

Who also often can only obtain support from online communities, as a favorite tactic of abusers is ISOLATING VICTIMS FROM ANY SUPPORT.

And online, often their only shield is the fact that they are able to REMAIN anonymous so that their abusers cannot FIND THEM.

You know what group often requires adult aid to obtain government identification?

Children and teens.

Do you know what group is most vulnerable to domestic abuse because they are, by virtue of existing, dependent on their abusers?

Children and teens.

I know there's a ton of people yelling about the Discord Age Verification thing already, but i'm gonna join in regardless.

These folks keep trying to do this under the guise of making children/teens/vulnerable folks "more safe".

There is a huge problem with this logic.

bestie what happened

Neither possess any skills or abilities from their own world in the new one (no cyber implants in the fantasy world, no magic in cyberpunk), and together, the two need to figure out what happened, how to get home, and why the same guy is hunting them in BOTH worlds.

Would you watch/read it?
