Congrats then! You think just like they do and are no better than your ‘enemies’.

Shit like this does not help, it just keeps swinging the hate back and forth.

Your ideas are as vile as the worst magat’s.

No need to reply again, I won’t be responding to anymore ignorant swill from you.

Sooo… It’s ok to be an extremist, only as long as it suites your beliefs?

Raised in BFE over religious tiny small town, extremely conservative, family. Learned to read, began questioning all of it, been the opposite side of that once I had access to a library, outside sources of information and reality.

Not many of the people I grew up with there stayed conservative once becoming an adult. Sweeping generalizations used to approve mass murder is not a good idea.

Aww! We also learned of Churu because of our elder kitty. She passed last year, 20+yrs old. It ended up becoming her only meals aside from meds/supplements. It made me glad to see her still enjoying things and having energy to get around unlike when we were just using the rx food, which she didn’t like.

I apologize that I don’t bring ‘good’ advice with me only anecdotal! …There also the community adhdwomen@lemmy.world, someone there may have some hepful suggestions!

I’m older, wasn’t diagnosed until well into adulthood, also female. Of course, it didn’t help that it was deemed medically impossible for girls to have adhd back when I was growing up, for getting proper diagnosing.

What really pushed me over the line to finally get diagnosed were the adhd communities here and elsewhere. Some of the silliest memes will sometimes have some great conversations within the comments. Posts with articles others found interesting, various answers folks have for questions asked… I have learned a lot, and get a lot out of, reading through other’s experiences, and getting some feedback on my own.

For me, I retain more from an article posted and then that ‘live’ conversation, vs. a book that might present multiple topics, that I then start researching one of, then fall down some random rabbit hole instead of continuing the book in any sensible amount of time.

Best of luck to you, in finding the resources you’re looking for, and all your journeys!

I try to do similar for our kitchen but one of mine just lays there and takes it at the ‘line’ between rooms. He is super food oriented so he’ll put up with anything to stay in the area. BTW I also train my cats to do tricks for treats, food oriented ones are the easiest to get to cooperate with that idea.

I also like to go around and wake everyone up midday when I take lunch (I work from home). Helps make them want to sleep, at least a little, at night instead of staying up being noisy assholes.

Edit… guess I don’t know how to use italics

Maybe the issues is they do believe in the bible and christianity? This is the religion that wiped out any others that were not aligned with it’s specific message and goals. It absorbed it’s morals, rituals and holidays from the others it destroyed. I mean, there was a fucking inquisition! Crusades. How many have been murdered by not following the ‘law of god’ or not being in the ‘right’ religion? Is it really morally right to treat and trade women like possessions or farm animals? To kill the firstborn of everyone who disagrees? ‘Oh, we dont follow that part anymore, we cherry pick what we want to use and believe in.’

It does not take religion to have morals. Being religious doctrine, does not make a thing moral.

Lotta party poopers in these comments. I’m with you. Many indicators this is a flat, painted picture if a driver is paying attention and going appropriate speeds.

These are amazing for guitars

Came to mention Les myself. Anytime I hear he has released something with another artist is always a surprising treat.

Some of do wish we were tall. Not all of us care what a potential mate finds “cute”. We want to be able to be safe wearing seatbelts instead of higher chances of decapitation. We want to be responded to like adults, especially in our 40’s, instead of treated like children. We want to be independent while working on and around our homes without fear of falling of stools and ladders to put dishes away or calling a man for help. Being told a job your interested in wouldn’t be a good fit, because of your size…

I even have pairs of “shit stompers”, as my friends call them, platform boots that give me about 2 1/2 inches more height so I can be self-reliant. Sold as “clubbing boots” but I wear them regularly for mundane shit.

Getting literally looked down on, by everyone, everyday, gets really tiring, especially after decades of it. I am 5"3 (so not even THAT short) and can’t see shit in large crowds besides asses and backs. Have been actually stepped on by tall folks (even people just at 5’6"… like, come the fuck on) who don’t realize there are people shorter than their eyes and don’t care to look down. My head gets hit by average and tall people’s elbows (hard) in club or crowd environments because again, they have no idea someone can exist below their eyeline, or just don’t care. Can’t go to bars or clubs alone because we are easy “marks” so we need an adult or a man to accompany us, to dissuade sexual preditors.

Anyone remember vehicles with bench seats? How degrading is it to not be able to reach the pedals because the seat only has 3 notches, and the closest one is still for people taller than you? Getting told “you should get yourself a booster seat” like I’m a kid in a restaurant.

Not every girl wants to be “cute”. Some of just want to “be”, and be safe. Self defense classes really drilled into my head the dangers of “looking like an easy mark” it’s assumed short women won’t put up as much of a fight and are easier prey. Learned to carry a “big” presence, and found a lot less sketchy characters would try to approach me. Staying that alert is fucking exhausting and makes going out, at night, in cities, to large parking lots, to bars and clubs, to concerts, a lot less enjoyable.

Sorry for the rant. But just because some folks might see short as cute, does NOT mean we short folks concur, or see that “cute” makes up for the rest of the shit and dangers we have to deal with. Or, even want to be “cute”.

That will be acceptable.

Keep talking like that and I’ll do it again too. Now bring me some food.

Oh wow!! I would love that, my family would hate me!! Already anytime anything close to AMOK TIME or that seen from Cable Guy is mentioned, I must, like an irrepressible impulse, do Jim’s “song” of the music. I would probably carry that around and play it instead till they disowned me.

We went to a Midievil Times tonight and it was all I could think about. Granted, I planned going here because I am a HUGE JC fan and ST fan, and finally live near enough to one and had an excuse to go.
