I made/distributed a gazillion silly frog "badges" last fall when ICE was focused on Portland. This sweetie pie still wears his to every protest. 🥹
Another thing: If your partner starts using the word "lie" in bizarre ways, RUN! They do it to both gaslight AND erode the meaning of the word for when you catch them in ones they're hiding. (I've analyzed my own abuse w/ a fine-toothed comb; the lie weirdness timed exactly w/ his first major lie.)
Fuckers like Josh Hawley need to be terrified to deliberately try to gaslight Americans. These fuckers and every abuser in America need to ask "might someone want to kill me for saying/doing this thing"? We need a legal annual purge. Watch every form of abuse instantly drop to the floor.
I wish for everyone being accused by their partner of seeking drama/conflict to gain clarity on what that fcker is doing. Were you ever accused of "seeking conflict" before you learned your partner cheated on you (or similar)? Nope. Your 100% understandable need for reassurance is NOT "drama."
Everyone needs to be aware of this tactic to stand a chance at recognizing it. My ex started this campaign 3yrs before the relationship's final end. He thought he ruined me fully at year 2, but came back when he learned I was dating. He then tried to drive me to suicide like his new supply's husband
Recall that the Pentagon spent $93 BILLION taxpayer dollars last September alone. For perspective, that's nearly half the TOTAL we've spent on Ukraine aid since Russia's 2022 invasion.
this might be my favorite instagram account. i came across him right at the beginning when he was listening to punk bands for the first time, but it's organically expanded to other genres.
and yep, i'll remember this 10 years from now. meanwhile, i currently don't know where i put 1.5 pairs of my earbuds. i do know where my keys are, though... win!
Leaving this here on the 0.001% chance Bluesky shows this to ANYONE much less someone who needs it. Given all the therapists I've met over the past 4yrs it's WILD no one mentioned PTSD's lingering effect like this. - Whoa, maybe it's rare to get the emotions part in check enough to experience it? 🤯
this obit is an interesting read. i had always just assumed he was worse politically than he apparently was... based, i guess, on how much my dad despised him even before any allegations saw light. fantastic opening paragraph:
the topic of this video isn't said enough: if you've felt mentally destroyed by the time of a break-up, it's becuz THEY WERE TOO COWARDLY TO LEAVE A GOOD PERSON, BUT BRAVE ENOUGH TO TOSS TRASH they tried to strip you of your soul. they wanted "i am human. i am hurt" to be a lie you told. part 1/2
Here's why the Threads engagement is low: he hasn't replied to any posts since Aug Threads' algorithm LOVES users who comment in general, but replying to a few comments under his own posts is REQUIRED. Easy fix Team Talarico: drop a fun comment on a PBS post. Can't lose @jamestalarico.bsky.social
true. true. true. tbh, i can trace the beginning of the end of one relationship back to the first time he snapped at me for interrupting him. (💯 blindsided.) i could never relax for any long lengths during conversations w/ him again. nothing beats finding another adhd'er. 20 topics in 5 min? 👍
i logged onto Threads one day to find a barrage of butthole jokes in my feed. i thought i was being part of the gang by adding to a running joke about the Threads logo... then a photo pulled into my feed two days later that instantly told me i had been on a whole separate wavelength. 😳
idk why i'm extra pissed about this given he commits more egregious acts daily, but: THE KENNEDY CENTER'S FACEBOOK PAGE SAYS **TRUMP** PAID FOR THE "RENOVATIONS" THAT **WE** PAID FOR p.s. Someone pls ask Betsy Klein who wrote this CNN piece if the boot caused permanent damage to her epiglottis.
there's absolutely no way i'm the first to come up with this. but figured i'd share since i've never heard it mentioned myself...
