Yep. I’ve been told a bunch of stuff like this because I’m chronically ill. My lack of faith in something that has no proof is not why my incurable illness has not been cured.
Then I’m not sure what you point was supposed to be. If lifesaving surgery is mutilation then mutilation isn’t inherently a bad thing and isn’t an argument against gender affirming surgery.
Yep. I had someone “explain” to me that the only reason I had morals was that I was a good god fearing Christian. Because they couldn’t fathom the idea that someone could treat others well and not want to harm anyone without fearing god. When I said I’m an atheist they absolutely refused to believe me. Like they walked away from the conversation convinced I am Christian solely because I’d never killed anyone.
Yep. Like “You could achieve so much if only you put in a little effort”. 🗡️😵 Thanks for noticing how much effort I put in, I’ll be sure to try again in the future.
Yep, hypocrisy is great ain’t it? I’ve had people tell me that being LGBT is a religion and therefore it shouldn’t be allowed to be taught to children, and then in the same paragraph say that all kids should be raised Christian. I’ve also had people tell me I was too young to know in my mid 20s that I wanted a hysterectomy, but then turn around and defend circumcision. Here’s the thing though, while yes, I did want a hysterectomy, it was done for medical necessity. In a two sentence comment someone defended newborn circumcision, and then told me my doc should be in jail “for mutilating the genitals of a child”. Because apparently people in their 20s are children.
Yep, that’s what I was told every time I brought up my sleep issues. Yeah, it’s been a few decades and surprise it’s never worked. Overtired me tends to be awake for longer. And then when I eventually crash, because it is inevitable, I crash HARD and sleep for 10+ hours completely dead to the world. Thankfully so far I haven’t slept through anything super important. I can only go to sleep quickly if I run myself absolutely ragged.
Yep, like just like everything else, not everything works for everyone. I’ve been awake for 26+ hours to the point I’m hallucinating and still unable to fall asleep. But apparently I just have to wait till I’m tired enough. As if being awake for 26 hours straight isn’t enough? I also can generally make it so I can be awake at the right time if left to my own devices. Which is why I’m really glad I’m out of my parents house, because they would decide “you’ve been sleeping long enough” and wake me up an hour after I fell asleep.
Yep, it’s just practice, lots and lots of practice. I did it while making eggs- if I did it right I fried them, if I broke the yokes scrambled eggs it is. I was taught by an actual chef in culinary camp, but it took me awhile to actually get the technique down. I can one hand crack, but only if I don’t care about the yoke staying together.
Here we go with another round of crochet foods for my sister’s kids. They got cookies, cakes and treats last winter. They loved those but asked for “healthy food” as well to round out their roleplaying games....
Thanks. Yeah, it ain’t easy. My parents blame me for my bad health, because apparently them ignoring my problems growing up meant they didn’t exist. Take care of yourself as well.
