I’m an insomniac reading through everything in my feed. I’d prefer not to run into this sort of… Edgelord rage tantrum, believe me

Nah this is a subscribed community.
You’re so… Hateful and angsty. I hope you’re not super young. It’s not good for you. Very gross behaviour. Try and do better.

OP never mentioned men. Bit of a slip on your part.
There’s a certain type of guy that wants a cybertruck. Most women would want to avoid that type of guy, and certainly wouldn’t want to accidentally procreate with them. So the cybertruck is the ultimate cock block for the good of all humankind.
It’s so hard to say because the allergy has been present my whole life - many exposures. The same thing goes for the taste of peanuts/peanut butter - I couldn’t actually describe how it tastes because I’m about 30s from throwing up.
The new suburbs where I am are cat containment areas so that’s something. But I’m in an older suburb. Where all the wildlife is quite established. And I keep finding lizards and parrots ripped apart. My home cameras pick up the cats that visit all night.
My responses to him are always prefaced with a big sigh. Because whatever I’m about to tell him is negative. And he often concludes with ‘so how can you care about this/why do you give a shit if it’s pointless’ and I’m finding it harder and harder to answer that question.
Ignorance truly is bliss
In Australia I can’t tell you how frustrating this is. People are so fucking selfish.
Imagine using the word simp
My partner lacked political engagement until his 30s for reasons so he occasionally has these hot takes. But he expresses them to me and I do feel bad because he’s not coming at it from an arrogant perspective. It’s ignorance, some naivete and also exasperation at a whole lot of shit things.
I have to gently explain to him why XYZ isn’t that simple or black and white, or why his idea doesn’t work - and the answer to that, 9 times out of 10, is ‘because money/rich people/greed/lobbyists/nimbyism’.
I’m just slowly chipping away at his innocence and it feels bad.
This is the best way of describing it. Assertive statements with very naive foundations. I can recognise some of my own thought patterns from when I was young in some of the things they say.
I know far too many people in their 40s who do this.
The way I try to reinforce the difference with people is this mnemonic device:
You don’t want a loose noose - or you might lose the extra ‘o’.
I’m extremely allergic to it. I smell it and I can’t actually describe it as food - it just smells like danger.
Careful with the idea that you’re a young country with limited history. Your indigenous peoples may view the matter (rightfully) quite differently.
In Australia we actually changed the lyrics to our national anthem a few years back. It did say “…we are young and free”. Which is a bit of a ‘fuck you’ to the people who have lived on and cared for the land for upwards of 50,000 years. So it’s now “we are one and free”.
I’m not chastising you, just prompting you to think about things differently.
It was bizarrely a frequently hired VHS back in the day in my family.
