not only that but she's a part time baker and is very skilled at making cakes, she has _two_ jobs and she still parties hard. we love a queen with a work life balance /hj
Um actually shes not a "part time baker" theres no such thing. Either you're a baker or you're not. Shes just someone who occasionally likes to bake

"Real victims dont forget what happened to us" I HATE THAT!!! Dissociative amnesia exists and is a real detrimental thing. With the statute of limitations, victims with dissociative amnesia have such a hard time getting justice when they remember what happened to them. Victims 100% can forget or block out what happened to them, some never get the memory of their trauma back until years upon years later or even at all. If you do remember what happened to you, you wont forget it yeah, but over time with therapy and healing the effects will fade until you're able to live your life without constant fear.
Edit: To everyone in the comments here, I love you all! I truly hope you all get the help you need and the justice you deserve. Your experiences are valid and you're incredibly strong for surviving what you've gone through. From one abuse/sa victim to another, I'm supporting you in your healing journey
As a person who experiences dissociative amnesia on a regular basis (due to dissociative identity disorder)
I 100% agree with this statement
Heck sometimes we get trauma responses from a trauma we don’t remember
also like. what about people who were abused when they were literal babies 💀
This reminds me of a book I read recently called "With Malice" by Eileen Cook. I don't think she ever remembers what happened but she wins the court case
Yep. Literally have trauma that we still don't know about. And the worst of it is having ptsd level triggers but you do NOT get to know what they are. At all. So you can't even take advantage of trigger warnings. The statute of limitations is simply a way for criminals to walk away from their victims.
And there are those of us who have forgotten most of the situation and are happier NOT having to carry the memories around every day.
As a goth... yeah, gatekeeping definitely happens. And while some of it IS kind of required, a lot of people tend to take them way out of proportion or gatekeep the dumbest things
not a goth, but a crust punk, and I fully agree. there's def good gatekeeping and bad gatekeeping
Yeah, Gatekeeping is both helpful, but also harmful. It depends on how it is utilized.
Thank you for acknowledging that many women really do have painful periods! It's refreshing to hear that coming from a man. None of the guys in my past relationships ever downplayed women's periods and they all knew how painful it can get for many women. Mine gets pretty bad at times and I have been hospitalized in the past due to them.
Mood. And it says a lot that, when I took birth control to curb my period pains, the resulting migraines were *much more* manageable...
@@MintyCoolness this is so true, they can be used for other purposes too. When I was a teenager, I had ovarian cysts multiple times. I had to have surgery. When they grew back and we caught it much earlier, I was put on birth control which shrunk them and they disappeared. I was so grateful and I wasn't intimate with anyone. I also get abdominal migraines during my periods sometimes, but BC doesn't help as it's not related to hormones.
If you haven't already, please talk to a ob-gyn about this. Endometriosis and some other syndromes make periods way more painful and can be helped if diagnosed early enough
@@mottebahner2867 I been seen by different specialists and I've been diagnosed with abdominal migraines. Since it's not hormonal related birth control doesn't help. We treat the symptoms and episodes when they occur which helps me stay out of the hospital most of the time.
@@dragonfliesnh4204 Good to hear that you've gotten checked out by doctors, sad to hear that it's nothing cureable
21:50 UGH, as an adoptee I hate this logic.
So you're telling me the woman who changed my diapers, woke up at three am to hold me when I cried, taught me how to walk, took me to see every musical that came to town, taught me how to sew and how to brush my hair, made jewelry for me, took me on vacations, went to school WITH ME during a particularly bad time when I was afraid to go alone, bought me my first pair of high heels, talked me through my first period when I thought I was bleeding to death, cheered for me when I got my diploma, helped me advocate for myself when I started college, made it to every single one of my concerts or school musicals, attended my college graduation despite the fact that it was outdoors in 90 degree heat during a global pandemic, and was willing to take photos of the stuffed animal I made at Build a Bear for my 24th birthday despite me being an adult who some would say was 'too old' for such a thing...isn't my mom because I didn't come out of her vagina?
Raising a child well is how one pays the debt they incur by bringing a child into this world. An adoptive parent is paying a debt they didn't incur. Anyone who doesn't respect that is a fool.
IKR?
I'm not adopted, but holy hell I feel every ounce of your pain after reading every single character of that comment. I don't really want a partner but I do want to raise a child so I wanna adopt a child and I swear on my life I will beat the living s*** out of *ANYONE* who wants to try and put me down for it.
I appreciate that you addressed the substance of Taylor's argument, rather than resorting to many ad hominems (unlike some TH-camr that made this very video), and yeah, I agree with you. Just because someone is not your biological parent doesn't mean that they can't take care of you as good, or even better than your biological one.
@@SmileOlderBro_GodsBrother What substance? What argument?

RWBY is an american made 3D CGI anime by rooster teeth.
It's plot has slipped a fair bit since season 3, where series creator Monty Oum died before the season could be finished, with new writers and directors taking over beyond then... It's pretty awesome in terms of action as it goes on though, even if characters forget lessons from 2 seasons before just to be "in the right".
My message to anyone who thinks only children eat chicken nuggets and gummy worms:
It's okay. You're an adult. You don't need your mother to buy you nuggies and gummies. You can buy your own now with your own money.
You can also buy 200 worms on a string with your own adult money! :D
And you can also buy a large dino mould and liquify all the dino nuggies to make one massive dino nuggie.

9:13 I made an erasure poem from that tweet. It reads:
Erasure is not to destroy
The word is pure
That’s lowkey really good
6:50 That guy doesn't realize that technically "physical pain" IS mental pain because pain receptors are controlled by the brain sending signals there. all the pain you experience is in your head
lmao that last line sounds like a total gaslight.
"all that pain you experiencing is in your head bro fr"
Yeah, plus 'mind over body' in terms of toughing out pain really doesn't apply to many things if at all. Even something like spicy food is not something you can control the pain of. I'd like to see him down a tablespoon of the hottest hot sauce on an empty stomach and come back crawling still telling me he's fine lmao
@@thatjuicyboi8516, yeah, out of context that sounds pretty funny.
Also, as someone with *extremely* high pain tolerance (to the point where I actually can barely feel anything whenever I hit my toe in the depths of the night) barely feeling any pain or not feeling pain at all kinda sucks. Pain exists for a reason, it's literally a survival mechanism that lets us know that something's wrong with their body. The amount of serious injuries I could've prevented if only the pain kicked in sooner and I removed my limb faster is insane. Also it makes noticing internal issues a living hell because my "mild" pains and aches all turn out to be super serious issues that could've been prevented if only the pain, once again, kicked in sooner. Going to the doctor with a mild stomack pain only to find out that my stomack's acid has almost melted my insides and that I now can't eat most of my favourite foods because of how severely everything is already corroded is... fun.
We did something similar to this in philosophy! We had a particular subject about the mind, and physicalism (which is the point you made) vs dualism (the idea mind and brain/physical body are separate and not the same)
erasure poetry, also known as blackout poetry, is created when one takes an old text and blocks out certain words to turn the original passages into new passages with new meaning. it can be seen as collaboration, recycling or renewing old text to tell a new story, a way of concentration, and/or challenging the old passages. it is absolutely poetry, as poetry is any literary work centered around or intensifying the expression of emotions and ideas that's usually written with a distinctive style and rhythm.
-sincerely, someone very passionate about literature
Some of the most beautiful poetry I've ever read was erasure poetry. From hate targeted at queer people transformed into words of self-love and respect. It's ABSOLUTELY poetry and personally the one I consider the best kind of poetry: Using words of hate against the people who spread it.
Sounds interesting
As long as you're not destroying old, rear books in the process, have fun with it.
@@rroes7319 if it's your book, you can do whatever the hell you want with it tbh
@rRoes as Toby said, if you own the book, it's yours to do what you want with. But other than that, a see a lot of blackout poetry as digital. Digitally blacking out words over a photo of a real book, or a screenshot of a digital text
22:37 I love how they’re citing _Harry Potter_ as an example of witches getting wussified, even though their werewolves are even more horrifying than the “werewolves then” here.
I usually watch these for some lightheartedness but the “real victims” one made me genuinely angry as a survivor with a boatload of trauma to still unpack
Funny enough, the snapchat gatekeeper didnt come across to me as snapchat is for babies. It felt like she was saying snapchat was so ten years ago. Which is somehow dumber and even less self-aware.
She definitely says "grow up" not "get with the times"
Funny that she mentioned middle school, because you're not supposed to even be on snapchat if you're under 18. They don't bother enforcing their own policy though. They only enforce it on under 13s because they're legally required to.
I get where she's coming from, Snapchat used to be a massive deal in my middle school days until people stopped caring. But funnily enough most people that I know who still use it, use it to send memes, pictures of their day and stuff to their partners. Pictures titled "I'm buying milk", stuff like that
@@darkclownKellen Could mean the same thing in a way.
"It's not *insert year here* anymore, grow up"
21:47 Interesting that "adopted parents aren't real parents," but adoption is encouraged for unwanted pregnancies instead of abortion.
I. Am. Confusion.
Good point
They just don’t give a shit about the kid after it’s born.
Lissen, it's all about "caring about the babies" while they're still in the womb. It's important to hold women prisoners about what they can and can't do with their own bodies. Once the babies are born, they must be used whichever way the older generations see fit to ensure they can have more comfortable lives. Don't worry about the kids' suffering, because they should be grateful that they were even brought into the world and made to slave away for some wrinkly old grumps while experiencing the same miserable childhoods that they had. They're really only valued for their productivity, and should only ever be told that they're loved so that they'll stop whining. This is the conservative way. /s
@@august6760 It's really easy to advocate for the unborn because the unborn don't make demands, protest, or complain.

17:05 "If you run once a week, you're not a runner, true! But you molest ONE child..." (semiquote by someone I don't remember)
As a chronic migraine suffer I can in fact say that needing to be keeled over in a pitch black room with a trash can is not the defining trait of whether something is a "real" migraine. There are different types of migraine with different severities and each migraine you get can be on a different level it can heavily vary between person to person. The main form of migraine I suffer from is vestibular migraines which is vertigo and nausea. They were bad enough that I had to drop out of regular school in middle school and move to online school because of how severe mine were before we figured out some good treatment and sometimes they still get that bad. Vestibular migraines are still medically classified as a migraine and is absolutely debilitating without treatment and still can be at times with it. And as I've gotten older I've been able to tack the headache variety onto my list of migraines. Both of these are usually made more tolerable when at their worst if I curl up in a quiet dark room but it's not always necessary. Loud sounds like loud music can trigger them along with lack of sleep but again the levels and causes can differ between people. The idea of someone trying to gatekeep freaking migraines of all things really ticks me offer.
11:12 Worst about this tweet: wearing seatbelts is literally a legal-law you can get fined when you don't do this. So what they're saying is: It's "gay" to going after the law.
“Be Gay, do Crimes” whatever happened to that? /s
"the upper half of my torso is on the other side of the road and my bodies been turned into spaghetti but atleast i'm not gay!"
"dont mess me with that gay shit"
"what gay shit, the LAW?"
6:19
To be fair it’s incredibly difficult to (unintentionally) use the word “literally” wrong since they updated the definition to mean both something literal, and as a form of emphasis
The best part is that the opinion of "they" doesn't even matter because there's no official English authority and dictionaries are descriptivist and not prescriptivist, so even if modern dictionaries didn't recognize the new usage of literally, they'd hold no weight LOL
Should be 6:90
It's quite fascinating that some people are so oblivious to how languages have always been this evolving form of human expression. You could show them an ancient form of their own native language's text and they'd be completely stumped at what even half of the words mean, only for you to point out that it was their official form of their native language at that time period. Whether they'll believe that's how languages work or not at that point is a clear indication of their general acceptability on a lot of advanced topics.
yeah lol "they" define words based on linguistic trends, not as a means to standardize language. if you know what I mean when I say it, then boy howdy that's a word.
Yeah, because English functions like a real language that's actually used by people should and only defines words as they're actually used. Unlike languages like French which have some sort of group or organization that dictates the definitions of words.
17:15 So long as I only occasionally kill people I'm not a murderer ...
gatekeeping in music has always irritated me.
as someone with autism, my sort of hyper-fixation is with certain bands and artists, i only listen to a handful of bands or artists, and am usually obsessed with them, knowing all there is to know about the band, from how the band was formed to knowing every member's favorite food, and also having everything involving the band, like deluxe versions of every album or movies they cameoed in as well as lots and lots of merch.
but even with my obsessions of certain bands, if i meet someone who likes the same bands as me, but are only a casual listener, i don't interrogate them on if they're a real fan or calling them a poser if they don't know every single bit of trivia about them, because nobody likes assholes like that.
i usually have normal conversations with them, like asking them their favorite song by that band or artist, recommending other songs by them or sharing the bits of trivia i know about the band, y'know, normal shit.
it's perfectly fine to be a casual listener, more than fine actually, you don't need to be a super-fan to enjoy a certain band or artist's music, you can just, like their music because you like their music.
and if you are a super-fan, that doesn't make you better, that simply means you really like a band or artist and are extremely dedicated to them, which is fine, it's good to have something to be dedicated to and there's something magical about meeting another super-fan, but you're not better for being a super-fan.
it also sucks when you are a real fan, but get called a poser by some neckbeard behind a screen because you only have digital copies of their albums or something stupid like that...
stop gatekeeping music, music should be able to be enjoyed by everyone, whether you're a super-fan or a casual listener.
All true. But metal heads in my experience aren't a huge fanbase of gatekeepers or music snobs, there is the classic example of people that raged when baby metal toured with rob zombie, but Rob Zombie ridiculed people for claiming any artist could be less than serious about their content. A lot of us like a lot of concept material and various degrees of electronic and contemporary instruments, and cultural source. While I find some other genres, let's say us country, to represent a far smaller scope, I admit that same scope is unrepresented elsewhere and that's why I listen to a lot of other genres anyway. It's also why I appreciate a wide variety of metal genres and cultures represented in it these days.
As an Autistic person myself, I just like having people to gush about the things I like and would rather make friends than push people away. It's more fun!
THIS honestly, i wish more people would think like this.
You don't HAVE to be a master/specialist at something to *enjoy it*
@@handsomejack4125 same, although i've always noticed that, autistic people always seem to have very niche hyper-obsessions, so it can be a little harder to find people who are obsessed with the same thing you are.
but it makes it feel that much more special when you find someone who likes the same thing as you, even if they might not be as obsessed with it as much as you are, it's nice to gush about that thing, share everything you know about it and have conversations about that thing.
it's an even bigger plus if they're also autistic, because a lot of us (myself included) seem to have a limited amount of things to talk about, and most people will get sick of you going on and on about something you're passionate about, but they won't mind as much if you constantly talk about it, since they'll also probably go on and on about it.
I don't expect people to have the same kinda fervor I have for my special interest, and that's ok~ Maybe they learn something, maybe they don't, but in the end, they listened and respected my passion~
The funniest part about gate keeping pain is that most of the people who live in agonizing pain 24/7, such as folks with severe CRPS (the most painful chronic condition known), recognize that others have very real pain that disrupts their lives. We know that while someone suddenly feeling what we feel would flatten them, *it flattened us in the beginning*. We’ve simply adjusted to that reality and thus can do more.
But someone who normally has no pain suddenly breaking a bone or having horrific stomach pain, or whatever? That’s very real and very debilitating for them.
My periods were never that painful, and yet i manage to have human empathy for my sis who had horrible cramps. Truly one of life's greatest mysteries
Your sister likely has a medical condition. They don't normally hurt. Either that or she's a really good actor
@@scrungles7853 They don't normally hurt???? Sorry if I don't exactly believe you. I was taught very differently because the cramp pain gets so bad I have to take some sort of pills every time. And this was always taught as normal. Some just get it worse than others, or their pain tolerance is higher.

Quick note: cooking and baking actually help you deal with depression and are a safe, healthy way to cope and get your feelings out
this is true. and if baking isnt really 'for you', things like exercise (workouts, bodybuilding, even running) can do the same thing. as could reading, writing, drawing etc.

Guys, don't let people like Jedediah get you down about a completely natural thing. I have very long, thick body hair and my boyfriend of almost 2 years has never really thought twice about it. I go to the pool and the beach and no one bats an eye. I promise it's not as bad as you think, your hair is beautiful so don't let other people tear you down for it!
Also, for the men, my boyfriend has long gorgeous hair that goes down his back. Nature doesn't gaf how long your hair is, plus, I love it!
I hate women like that Jedediah who perpetuate harmful stereotypes about women. If we weren't supposed to have hair, we wouldn't grow it. If it bothers you personally (I can't stand the feeling of hair on my legs, for example, if I'm going to wear clothes that expose them), then you can shave it. If you dgaf, you don't have to shave it. And "landing a man" is not the be all, end all of a woman's existence.

It sucks that there’re people who think we are below them, because of something we were born with.
Why? It was a compliment to autist. (Edit: Not saying it was accurate, just saying it wasn't demeaning to anyone but conservatives)
Sometimes, it's the only thing we can do, like the few segments of road paved well enough for autopilot, while we personally struggle driving in any other stretch of our lives the entire rest of the time. Especially work, we basically just do the same programmed crap without fault and then struggle to grocery shop afterwards because creating an improv workflow is spaghetti.
As an autistic person, that tweet annoyed me SO much! It's like they don't realize that autistic people can have different opinions on political stuff. And I WISH being autistic wasn't frowned upon in society, ffs.
...Are you implying that people on the left can't drive, etc.? I mean, I'm assuming you're just generally cheesed about ableism toward autistic people and this isn't meant to be read in the context of the original tweet, but I just want to check.
as a metalhead myself.... yeah, it's sadly true, a lot of metalheads have a bad habit of gatekeeping! Usually fans are exceptionally chill people, but... honestly, if you like the music, and/or the aesthetic, ALL POWER TO YOU! 🤘
I'd like to add, "...and if you're not a racist dickwad" to that, thanks.
There are a lot of times I seen groups of metalheads encourage the largest variety of things and people and each other... But then there are a few noteworthy cases like when baby metal toured with Rob Zombie; the gatekeepers insulted baby metal, and then Rob Zombie defended baby metal, saying the artists that commit to their content as much as baby metal does is way more authentic than all the drunken party boy fans that lack any empathy or understanding of the effort or creator process.
Same.
Nanowar of Steel recently released their album "Dislike to False Metal" that mocks the gatekeeping.
it's the "Elitists" who gatekeep like mfer's. only these type of people can listen to cannibal corpse whats that you're only 10? WHY ARE YOU LISTENING TO METALICCA THAT'S FOR GROWN ADULT METALHEADS! interests breed the most obnoxious people on the planet.
I’m a huge horror fan, and I literally am the opposite of gatekeeping, I try to recruit non-horror lovers, and when horror lovers haven’t seen my favorite movies, I launch into why it’s amazing and why they have to watch it because it’s so good. I swear it’s not like recruiting cult members…

As for my personal experience, while I usually watch everything in the original language, I refuse to do it for the Ash era of the Pokémon anime (Gen I - Gen VIII), since I grew up with it and it just doesn't feel right to hear Ash's voice in any other dub that isn't my own country's.

the milk one is the quickest way to let someone know they don't do their own cooking, it is an ingredient in so many things that it would be hugely inconvenient for me to ever not have any on hand, so if anyone's eating frozen chicken nuggets it's them. I also drink it like constantly though, sometimes with lunchables or teddy grahams, because I live life how I want to 🌱
Don’t forget hot beverages like tea coffe abd hot chocolate
I don't regularly cook anything with milk, but practically the entire adult population of the UK drinks tea, usually with milk
As a goth that doesn't actually have anything gothic yet, I say screw the haters and just wear whatever makes you happy. I'm super into the darker looks of gothic clothes, but I also just like wearing oversized hoodies and I have a pair of galaxy leggings that I would never be able to give up. Who cares what you look like as long as you're comfortable being yourself?
True. I'm a pretty dark person who had a wholesome phase lately, it's good to have balance, I still hate just about everyone but I at least like cats and hope people do whatever best intention best outcome thing they can. It's just unsurprising people create misery almost out of obligation, compulsion, or plain old not believing in a better state of existence 🙃
@@RoundShades are you secretly a cat?
I’ve tried to explain to my partner the differences between goths, emos, metal heads, punks, scenes, pastel goths, vamp goths, skater girl/boy, etc. and the only things that I can think of that is a clear distinction is clothes/makeup/hairstyles, but even those are not full proof ways of knowing.
I remember the groups were very gate-keepy when I was in high school and I remember identifying myself as an “emo” but people said I wasn’t a true “emo” because my clothes matched more of a skater/grunge look. But then the skaters would tell me that I wasn’t a true “skater” (besides the fact that I couldn’t skate) was because I wore Converse high tops instead of Vans.
It’s an all out war with trying to fit in somewhere and people get too territorial/emotionally attached to the labels. It’s just gotten to the point where I don’t care for labels anymore lol
@@cecesmith4723 honestly can't blame you for giving up. I brought up having a pair of galaxy leggings to a friend (who isn't categorized into a specific fashion group) and he asked "aren't you a goth?"
For whatever reason the question made me panic and just come up with the excuse of me not having anything gothic yet
@@TheCrystallizedVoid but like galaxy print would definitely fall into a goth category because to me that sounds like witchy goth lol but I definitely understand the panic. I’ve had people ask me if I’m goth, a metal head, screamo, alt, etc. and it made me panic because I didn’t want people to think I was crazy. But now I don’t care as much because I like my music and my style, there are some things I wish I knew how to do (like eyeliner or just makeup in general) because I feel like it would match my style better, but I definitely don’t fit into a single category anymore.
Good luck with the clothes search! I know for me it’s a nightmare trying to find things that I like, online and in store

Technically all pain is mental, you can't feel it without nerves and part of your brain responsible for pain, so..... there is 0 percent difference between him and everybody else.
8:54 you should never ask someone a question, then make fun of them for it in the same post assuming that the answer is no. If you ask the question first politely, then if they say no, then you can respond to that.
9:37 erasure poetry is where you take existing text (like say a page from a book) and black out any words that aren’t involved in your poem. Only leaving the ones you wanted visible. It can be very hard to pull off sometimes and although I don’t particularly care for it I still give mad respect to people who professionally make it because it can be extremely hard sometimes.
Professional? People get paid for that crap?
No throughout the ages poets were seen as the laughing stock. Just ask Lermontov
@@itsgonnabeanaurfrommeits been a art form since the 60s. You take a text block and find art hiden in it.
Oh, that's not too bad. I was thinking like someone wrote a poem, and crossed out part of it, and is now claiming it's theirs. Completely different than taking an article that means one thing and making it into your own poem with a different meaning. Hard to describe lol

I wouldn't take the Road runner bit as gatekeeping since it did say "only the best generations will get this", meaning if someone in your generation has seen it, it's the best generation and thus very much inclusive. We are all part of a "best generation". My toddler watched roadrunner, Tom and Jerry and Pink Panther. Still does a few years later.

I remember someone trying to gatekeep me over Doctor Who fandom because I was fine with Ten showing fear in "End of Time".
Over the oath to never be cowardly, which was not introduced to canon until after that episode and the Third Doctor stated that you can be afraid and courageous decades ago.
I wouldn't gatekeep over someone not knowing those things, but gatekeeping over something that has been canonically wrong for literal decades was just... wtf?
Gods, seriously?? The Doctor showing fear is a very important and significant thing for the premise of the show. It shows that courage is not the absence of fear, but what one can do in the face of it.
@@mrfrogkingg yup. Three even laid that out directly in a pep talk once.
i swear to god theres gonna be a 12 year old 'sigma' whos gonna comment 'L pfp'
Do they not know what courage is
Courage isn’t not being afraid it’s standing in the face of fear
Especially given 10 was the human doctor abd had expressly called regeneration like death
Lack of fear isn't courage, it's stupidity.
About the migraine one... For a long time I wasn't sure they were migraines or not. For me they're bad but not world-endingly so, and curable with cheap off-the-shelf drugs.
Then I started getting "fortification spectra", which are a dead-on migraine symptom. A migraine in your visual center.
So yeah, you can absolutely have mild migraines.

Gaterkeepers need to understand that just because they have arbitrary standards for things, it doesn't mean we have to follow them. And if we don't follow them, that doesn't mean we aren't what we say we are. *We* decide who we are. Its really stupid to think that your personal standards are automatically the rules, and it comes from having some sort of superiority complex. Which is decidedly, across the board, by all rational people, a bad thing.
24:28 actually this is one of the reasons why those people get depressed: because they "should not" and they feel guilty and everything gets worse
Bro gets it
11:00 all I know is I’m not raging
A friend of mine was into punk growing up, and before anyone says anything, he was born in the 80's, so they're not "too young", and he's the most welcoming lover of punk I've ever met, and believes that you should never gatekeep something like punk, and he'll usually try to get anyone that asks about music to listen to Punk lol
Edit - Not saying others in punk aren't gatekeep-y, i just love hearing him get pissed at people gatekeeping Punk

Technically thats true, she's not a mother. She is actually a mom which is 100% much better than a mother. Any woman can be a mother, it takes a certain type of woman to be a mom. A mother is just a person who birthed you, a mom is the one who loves and take care of you. It's the same with fathers and dads. A father helps bring you in the world, a dad loves and takes care of you
Same with step-parents. I've seen the text "Yes, I'm a step-dad. The dad that stepped up" on t-shirts ect. and I think that's a wonderful way of seeing it
Ben Shapiro: "Bernie Sanders isn't REALLY Jewish."
Me (under my breath): "Look who's talking."
"True Jews are the Jews who agrees with me." -Ben Shitpiro (He rage quit an interview here he admitted this fact)
Ben says anyone would be disappointed when meeting someone titled Dr. at a dinner party and finding out they aren't a medical professional during an emergency.
Dr. Graham the religious dude, makes me agree, there's no way he earned a doctorate through educational merit, likely even solely based on religious education, as even Catholic archbishops know what religion really means, has done, and supports or not.
Funny enough, conventional Jewish followers are some quite practical blokes at creating convenient ways to follow their religious interpretations. I really really wish they'd sue any legislation over abortion, since they practice life at first breath.
RWBY is an amazing show. I love it. The story is deep and complex, the fantasy elements and combat scenes are over the top in a good way. The animation style and characterizations are fun an colourful. It addresses a lot of important topics like human rights issues, grief, family/friendship and trust, and perseverance in difficult situations. I'm honestly disappointed Rooster Teeth took it off TH-cam after a few seasons to cash in on DVD sales instead. I think a lot more people would enjoy and benefit from the show if it was still easily available. Fortunately, as often happens, some brave souls have reposted a good bit of it, so it is there to be found.
I personally didn't mess with the post-Monty volumes but it's nice that the community can still appreciate the project for what it evolved into.
Unlikely to go back into it myself however. I think Harris managed to describe it perfectly for what I feel towards it

I have a style that many people around me call emo or goth, but idc what people wear and if they are wearing something they like that's all that matters, and if they have a similar or style I like I love that and tend to compliment them.
Sprinkles Vanilla Cupcakes
1 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp fine sea salt
2/3 cup whole milk
1 ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, slightly softened
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
2 large egg whites
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a 12 cup cupcake pan with paper liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a small bowl, stir together the milk and vanilla.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the speed to medium-low, slowly add the egg and egg whites one at a time, and beat until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add half the flour mixture, then the milk mixture, then the remaining flour mixture, beating until just blended after each addition.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners and bake until the tops are just dry to the touch, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and cool completely before frosting with vanilla frosting.
*For high altitude baking make the following adjustments:
Decrease baking powder to ½ tsp baking powder
Use 1 less Tablespoon sugar
Baking time may be a few minutes less. Check your cupcakes early.
Vanilla Frosting
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, slightly softened but still cool
1/8 tsp fine sea salt
3 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
5 teaspoons whole milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and salt on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, gradually add the confectioners’ sugar, and beat until incorporated. Increase the speed to medium, add the milk and vanilla, and beat until fully blended, 1 to 2 minutes, making sure not to incorporate too much air into the frosting.

Gatekeeping work exhaustion though… in high school I was an extreme introvert who worked as a gymnastics coach for young kids, and damn that shit was so exhausting I’d be _done_ after my 3 hour shift. And people at school would always be like _“why are you complaining it was only 3 hours, I work 6 hours”_ or whatever and just- just shut up. I’m allowed to be exhausted after being “on” for 3 straight hours running after kids and demonstrating skills all while not being allowed to sit down at all.
"Grown men should not wear shorts"
Okay.

Robin,
You give yourself such a hard time, and I'm sure it's mostly in jest, but I still wanted to take a moment to spread some positivity!
You are a total cutie, you come across as a really sweet, genuine guy, and you have an amazingly wonderful voice, even when you're sick. I hope you feel better soon! Thank you so much for doing what you do. I hope it brings you as much joy as it brings me. :)

After putting up with that much of that subreddit, I sure as hell ain’t okay either.
Until the caption popped up on the screen, I read it as saying sunglasses too. The brain is weird.
I'm 17, born in '06. My mom (1979) was always a very nostalgic person, and still is. We also were quite poor when I was young. So we didn't have a DVD player until I was like 10 years old, despite them becoming a thing in the late 90s I believe. Walk-men, VHS/VCR, cassettes. I grew up with that stuff. Most of what I had early childhood was in fact stuff from the 90s. But then Millennials will be all "Oh you don't know, you're not a 90s kid" Like...ok dude? Does that mean I can't be familiar with and have grown up with the same stuff you did?
Also small other thing cause it's funny and relates to some of these posts. My mom was born in mid December of 1979. But will call herself a 70s kid. Like no mom, you existed in the 70s for less then a month XD
was kinda the same for me. i'm an 80's kid (born in 1980 so i can say that. lol) but because of my parents i heard and watched a ton of music and movies from the 50's and 60's. we had a rotary phone for awhile (despite most everyone having only touch-tone/push button phones) there was an 8-track tape player around. lots of records/vinyls despite them being replaced with cassettes and then CDs, etc. and thanks to my parents and channels like nickelodeon watched a ton of 50's and 60's sitcoms.
That "dating under 25" one bothers me for multiple reasons. Dating is different for everyone obviously, but also you should never stop dating your life partner. Never get complacent enough that you don't take them places and hang out. Never stop winning your partner over.

One day I was at work and told that I'm to young to feel that 5 hours is actually 5 hours. Just because the grim reaper isn't knocking on my front door doesn't mean 5 hours isn't actually 5 hours to me. I have to deal with awful and stupid senior citizens all day, not only does the day drag but most times when I go home all I want to do is drink alcohol.
I've been told multiple times I'm too young to be tired, stfu Brenda I have insomnia. One time a customer at my old job caught me crying a little bit and told me that I'm too young to have anything to be upset about, my cat that I had for over half of my life had just died.

But on the other hand, at least they’re missing out on _The Grand Duke,_ so there’s that.
