Are you yelling at yourself right now? You haven't posted any art.

I can't get into those types of podcasts either so I've been looking for a list like this. Thank you for sharing and extra thanks for the helpful descriptors

Oh good I hope she sues the hell out of both of them. It's messed up the campaign of harassment they've thrown at her, and I hope she wins a huge lawsuit. I'd love if the terms of the suit insist they both apologize publicly, cause they would both hate that so, so much hahah.

I also think its pretty funny that terfs have, essentially, pulled back the curtain to show their true intentions. They like to pretend its about protecting cis women, but its pretty obvious to everyone now that they don't want to protect any women, they want to police them. Both cis and trans women. Which I take great pleasure in misconstruing to mean that deep down they believe trans women are women too

But isn't it tots and pears? Or maybe I'm just hungry

Oh yeah, when they try and throw the election they are definitely going to use this as their 'proof' the democrats are bringing in immigrants for votes 🙄

edit: oops wrong comment thread

Yeah, it started to really hit me when my friends starting having kids. I'd see them being so kind and patient and actually giving a shit about what their kids think and how their kids feel. It's both beautiful and heartbreaking; beautiful to see that this is exactly how a parent should be, and heartbreaking cause little me never had -and will never have- that experience. I feel like this plus getting older has made me realize just how bad my childhood really was. Like, I knew it was bad when it was happening, but I don't think I could grasp just how bad it was without some distance and perspective.

I haven't found myself jealous over kids who have it better than me, but I've found I am envious of people who've had at least one decent parent in their corner. Both of mine were horrible people. And on top of the abuse: ADHD (undiagnosed until recently), depression, bad anxiety, CPTSD (from the childhood), and possibly autism but no one seems to want to test an adult so I may never know. And the worst part is realizing, in hindsight and through therapy, that my mom knew. She fucking knew how mentally unwell I was, and not only did she do nothing to help, she would use the threat of having me committed to manipulate me. So fucked up. ugh.

So yeah I'm fully aware of the ways I'm broken, and I'll probably be in therapy for the rest of my life over it. Anyway, we deserved better. Everyone deserves a safe childhood with caring parents, everyone. Even you.

You joke, but around when covid started I swear a fox news host announced he doesn't wash his hands cause he doesn't believe in germs. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if "soap is evil" became the new conspiracy

ha, found it. It was some guy named Pete Hegseth: “My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air,” Hegseth began. “I don’t think I’ve washed my hands for 10 years. I don’t really wash my hands ever. I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing. I can’t see them, therefore they are not real,” Hegseth added.

I'd hope he was joking but this was on fox so who knows

I've been saying this for ages, yes. I think reality talk shows started the downfall, like springer. I grew up around a lot of trashy people and I swear reality shit tv like this convinced them that acting up in public is not just normal but acceptable.

He went into black communties during covid and compared the RNA vaccine to the Tuskeegee experiments

daaaaamn I didn't know he did that, that is deeply fucked up

lemmy has one too: !priest_arrested@lemmy.world

I have a cat named Beans, here ya go:

You can go into your lemmy settings and uncheck the box that says 'show bot accounts' and you'll never have to see them again

Over 400 comments in 6 days? Makes me lean towards AI. or maybe both ai and its operator using the same account

At this point I'm getting a little suspicious with how obsessed with children he is

Yeah the sealion is definitely barking, here's the same person in another comment:

I’ve had my niece say she was bullied in school for not wanting to claim she was bisexual or something - and this is in a pretty deep-red area. I’m sorry, but 50% of the population being LGBT is not anywhere close to reality, and is a pretty good sign that these kids are being indoctrinated. I understand the need to be understanding for people who are this way, but the ‘inclusion’ needle swung so far the other direction that it’s now convincing children that they are gay/bi/trans when they aren’t. Additionally, I’ve raised my children to take advantage of this and claim they are even if they aren’t - for the purposes of scholarships and other benefits; since being in one of these minorities will see you with better acceptance into college https://sh.itjust.works/comment/12746064

But we've been hearing it this whole time! https://www.amazon.com/Beautiful-Poetry-Donald-Trump/dp/1786894726

If the problems are the same with or without religion, then why bother with religion

I'm not great with US foreign policy (thanks to their poorly funded education system), so can someone eli5 why the US keeps sucking Israels dick?
