She wasn’t an adult yet so maybe she was still quite short? Even so I agree it shouldn’t have cost her acting roles.

8chan still exists?

Ladies, I am a curvy 13 year old but I still chase like a cat half my age! I am looking for my true love to spend the rest of my life with (must be Christian, no more than 5 years old, and orange).

I live with my parents and my siblings (one of them is a dog, the other is a jerk) and I WILL NOT groom myself so you must be willing to do it for me. I will complain the entire time.

No tabbies.

My cat is not very tech savvy.

Many governments cut social programs that would result in net benefits economically for society (e.g. disability services that mean more people can maintain jobs, education, family planning, public transit, all mean more money is being made overall including more taxes going to the government). But it isn’t a direct enough benefit and it’s hard to quantify, whereas slashing funding feels like immediate savings.

Imagine no longer paying for your phone service in order to save money, then being confused about why none of the jobs you applied to are calling you back. Same logic.

True for jeans and hoodies, not true if you need to wear nice pants, button down shirts and blazers to work.

They outdo themselves every year. There’s always at least one episode that was insane that they could pull it off. They obviously have an amazing team!

Not if they destroy education and ban abortions.

Acting like he hates the snuggles but doing nothing to get away, then looking obviously disappointed when I stop.

Cuddling up against me while I’m distracted so when I look beside me there’s a surprise cat there I can pet.

Hurrying me up to give him food, but once the food is served he comes up to me to give me a quick petting opportunity before he digs in. It’s my reward for feeding, him I guess. If I don’t take the chance to pet him, he won’t wait for me, so I need to act fast!

I’m choosing a light fixture right now and I’m trying to decide which one looks best with all the natural fibers I plan to place in the same room, and the fact that I’m choosing to spend real hours on this self-created homework when I could instead be playing video games should tell you all you need to know.

Mama = suck

Guevo = huevos = literally eggs but figuratively means balls

If you are thinking about B-12, that is already artificially added to meat products too. So even people who eat meat aren’t getting it the “natural” way. Now there are available plant milks fortified with it which does the same thing.

Yes, vegans should monitor their health more closely to make sure nothing is missing, but it wouldn’t be particularly difficult to get everything you need from plant based sources.

What? We’re not good enough to be presented multiple rocks? Do we need to ration one of Earth’s most abundant resources now?

In this case it looks like they commited fraud, so it’s not even just political.

Want them, can’t afford them. Not in terms of money, living space (which money would solve), or time (which is required to make money). I already feel like I’m drowning on my own, I don’t want to also fail my children.

Plus the world is a shitty place.

A cracked vase. Belonged to my great grandma. My grandma then had it and would fill it with fragrant flowers any time I came to visit. 11/10. Cracked vase is the one thing I made sure I took from my grandma’s house after she passed.

Note to anyone thinking of picking this up: read it, don’t listen to it. The book layout is meant to mimic a history book, and is filled with footnotes that have a life of their own. 11/10 book, imo. And I believe it took Clarke a solid decade to write because it was such an undertaking, but that work paid off!

It’s worth noting too that for every instance of feeling scared, there are at least 5 situations where women feel belittled. I think even well meaning men are a lot less aware of it happening, or of them doing it themselves. My own father is a sweetheart who means well, but he’s skeptical of anything I tell him until my husband repeats what I’m saying. I’ve had achievements minimized because I didn’t also raise a family while doing them. I’ve been denied entry into hobbies. I’ve been given fewer opportunities at work because they want a cute face at the front desk. I’ve been told math is not for me, while being the only middle schooler in the math team who could regularly beat high schoolers at competitions. I’ve been told no boys would ever want to be my friend, because boys can only be after one thing, so all the ones being friendly are faking it. And of courses I’ve had boys stop being my friend when it becomes clear that friendship is all I’m after.

It’s harder to spot but cuts to your self worth like these add up over time.

As a woman, and having known many other women, I can promise you that none of what is mentioned is particularly far fetched. It’s sad, but we all have multiple stories like this. Almost any woman could put together a similar paragraph of incidents she has personally experienced.

Edit to add: she didn’t even name anyone! No one is harmed, except the people who know they should be ashamed of themselves.

We’ll duh, chocobos are awesome!
