Midwives bringing monsters into the world sounds like a game I’d try.

I’ve used an app called Precise Volume to achieve the effect of lower-than-default volume. But I’m not thrilled it takes an app to do that, so your method could be nice.

You’re like my first Lemmy celebrity

Baba Yetu, the Swahili opening to the game Civilization 4. Wikipedia says it’s the first song made for a video game to win a Grammy.

First thing I thought of, thank you

I split with my ex of 10 years (together while I was 18 thru 29ish) and took for granted what support I did have. I’m lucky to have had parents and adult siblings on my side.

You’re doing a heavier lift than I had to. I’d have been in a bad place if I had no support. You were dealt a shitty hand. But the support is there, and you’re on the right track to healing by seeing your therapist. Future you will be able to look back and see this for the learning experience it is. Today my wife and I tease past-me about some red flags I ignored about my ex.

I want to share Tragedy + Time by Rise Against with you. It may come across as intended for the bereaved, but its words do not gatekeep feelings based on the cause of them. (It says “she” once but don’t get hung up on the gender.) In fact, I am tearing up right now at the thought that you, feeling what you feel, might find some solace in it.

In support of the statement that Dubya was worshipped, one can see LITERAL WORSHIP in the documentary Jesus Camp. Children at evangelical camp being led in prayer to a cardboard cutout of him.

This is my daily struggle. I mean… the ties are cut. The struggle is essentially grieving the loss of a parent as if they were dead.

I feel a little better when I hear that others have, to some degree, done the same.

Is that a community already?

Thank you for posting exactly what came to my mind. (It’s Gurren Lagenn y’all)

I am reflecting on my own parenting. I see possible benefits of a leash.

We’ve never used a leash. Instead I do a lot of yelling / stern vocalizations to keep kids away from areas they shouldn’t be. My approach is fraught with negative side effects because I often come off as angry, and my spouse and I work on checking me if it gets to be too much.

A leash could be a good alternative, or just an additional option to incorporate. It’s food for thought.

I read the OP as if they’re highlighting a double standard, rather than positing that OP themselves think they’re bad. “Can you articulate why a leash is always bad” seems improper if I understand OP correctly.

I could be wrong :P

I’m out of the loop. Is CRINE supposed to be “crying”?
