Not everyone has the same needs. I have more needs than most folks, unfortunately, and have had people be real damn swarmy about the "extra" things I am fortunate enough to be afforded because of it.
Historically, those with disabilities, special needs, and other things are NOT treated well under communism. They are considered a burden because of their extra needs.
Anyone who preaches against ableism should think real damn hard if they think that communism is compatible with anti-ableism. Calling out people who use the word "retard" ain't shit if your actually ideology is staunchly not actually supportive of the handicapped & disabled.
And before folks decide to dog-pile this post and say "OH, so you think capitalism is the better way, huh??" Fucking, no, obviously! I don't have all the answers, but I can confidently say that communism ain't it.
Think about writing a lot, but writing seems like a hard gig these days. Plus, most of my writing is rambling thoughts, so I'm not sure I could find the right audience for it.
I have to make a conscious effort to drink water, and my health requires that I do so. In order to not be dehydrated and sick, I carry a water bottle wherever I go.
I had a really cool NES water bottle that I loved because it had a push-button flip top. The less effort it takes for me to get to the water, the better! But eventually, the top broke and I begrudgingly had to get another water bottle.
Got one off Amazon (during lockdowns), and I just always had issues with it. Too big, flip top would come open in my bag sometimes, hard to clean, etc. I finally asked for a water bottle for Christmas as the one thing I wanted, and my SIL came through.
The flip top is SO easy to clean, the button is great, it has a handle that can flip up & down and doubles as a safety that covers up the button (so no more accidental openings!!), it has a pour spout AND a clever af straw-less sip option built into the top and it is just.... so good. She got me a bright orange one, because that was the only color they had in the store at the time, and she was worried I would have preferred a darker, more neutral color. Nope! Turns out, it's perfect for making sure I don't constantly lose my water bottle anymore!
As you can see, I will ramble to anyone who asks about it, because it's just so damn good.
I recently realized that it comes in different sizes, too!!
So anyone in the market for a damn good water bottle, check out the "owala"-brand. It's extremely inexpensive, great quality, lots of color & size choices, and it's just great. I swear I'm not a company shill– just a passionate hydro homie.
Here's a photo of mine. Yours will not come with stickers. Gotta supply your own. Sorry!

I wanted to raise my son with the understanding and patience that I was never afforded as a kid.
He is kind, loving, thoughtful, curious, smart, creative, and so much fun! Seriously, everyone loves him.
I defend him. I ask him questions. I encourage him to think about the things around him. I apologize to him when I'm wrong. I engage in things he enjoys (even if I don't). I take time to listen to him.
A big thing I've noticed is that people (typically other men) will define male worth by their relationships with women ("no gf", "kissless virgin", etc.). Maybe it's supposed to be a joke, but it really has evolved past that and engrained itself as a rotton seed in the minds of young men. Why do y'all think the rise of incels and aggressive, posturing adult men is much more prominent now?
Change up shitty masculine "values" and normalize kind, thoughtful, and caring men. Strive to also become one yourself and lead by example.
She was likely going to use them to stage something at a clinic in the future. Probably going to create some propaganda about how sick these clinics were for keeping these remains and not even giving them the decency of treating them with dignity.
Do they think that birthing & taking care of a newborn is like "summer break"???
For the billionth time: get fucked, GOP.
"Just act like us, and it wouldn't be such a problem (for us)!" 🤡
After my crime of calling some of them "obnoxious", I'm over it.
Go ahead and read it over.
Very little good can come from interacting, as the majority are not at all interested in civility or good-faith discussion.
It is a troll instance! That's not a joke!
No.
I want equity, not equality.

I don't mind the general hexbear ideology in itself. Sure. You do you.
But, damn, I see more than a few of its members just being obnoxious.
If you want to entice a cat to come closer, don't look at it! Direct eye contact is seen as threatening.
Put out your hand, point your face away from the cat, and put your hand out while gently calling it over. Your success rate will be much higher!
Also, a good cat-noise to attract them is a light trill with an upward inflection. It's my go-to when assuring nervous/unsure cats.
Thank you!

Appreciate it, though. (:

Train & pay me to scare away monkeys.
I want that job title on my resumé.
You're absolutely right.
I like the movement, stretching, and "connecting with your body"-feel of yoga.
But meditation can fuck right off. I can't pair the two. My therapist keeps trying to push me into it, but it makes my anxiety skyrocket.
Also: OP, why are you being so hostile?

Legit, tho.
"They're bullying autistic people on Mars now??? Why????? Wtf can we not catch a bre– oh, yeah, I definitely read that wrong."
Don't strive to be like me: strive to be a more patient & understanding you.
You've got this, mate!
You're definitely not ugly.
I hope that you're able to appreciate, love yourself, and see yourself how others see you eventually, my friend.

Oh, the irony.
From the article:
......so that's not fuckin' great.
Not exactly the same thing (though it's as close as you can get currently without surgery), but I used to wear circle lenses.
People were either wholly freaked out by it, loved it, or thought I was on drugs. No in-betweens, really.
I've never met a well-adjusted homeschooled kid.
