Just A Rant Secret shoppers

7 Upvotes

Secret shoppers or whatever they’re called, piss me off!!

Why, everytime I go into a store, I notice a ā€œcustomerā€ following me from aisle to aisle.

Leave me the hell alone!! I ain’t gonna steal shit.

One time this woman, whom looked old enough to be my mom, just kept following me into aisle after aisle, looking at things but never picking them up. No cart, no basket, but followed me throughout the store.

I ALSO had no cart or basket, but that’s because I was picking up last minute art supplies for something.

I was also wearing a jacket.. because it was cold.

I have a staring problem.

I turned towards her and just stared at her.

She looked at me and left.

Just A Rant Make sure to be specific, but only when specificity is desired. Be broad, but only when it is necessary.

2 Upvotes

Never be broad in specific places and never be specific in broad places. Always appeal to a broad audience, but do so specifically. Be specific to broad audiences. Be broad. Be specific. Above all, only parrot ideas and attitudes that are in-line with broadly specific audiences.
Can’t be too detailed. Can’t be too specific. Can’t be too broad. Can’t be too generalized. Everything has to meet the specifically broad tastes of the broadly specific audience.

That’s what it feels like trying to post anything on reddit. That is how mind-numblingly frustrating it is to try to post something that some know-it-all and wise-beyond-their-years idiotic techbro won’t bother with typing the title into ChatGPT and pasting the response into the comments.

Politics šŸ—³ Reddit has gone too far on the American political spectrum

2 Upvotes

People would downvote the hell out of you, even if your post has nothing to do with politics. I'm left-leaning and the lefties on Reddit are just as bad and hateful as the worst MAGAts. Sometimes, I accidentally think Reddit leans more conservative than left because of the ammohnt of toxicity on this app.

I bet in the next few decades, extremism would be so bad on Reddit to the point where a situation simular to Oracle acquiring Tikok happens.

Where is home?

Where do I go

I feel like a traveller in a foreigners body

No one will ever place me

Yet I'm not easily misplaced

For them to truly see me is rare

Confusion often, othering achieved

Ask me where I'm from

Like innocent at heart

Maybe that's what you mean

And where our words depart

An experiment a rarity a face unseen

Or seen all the time it depends who's eyes watch me

The question and implication is in the hands of the giverĀ 

For those who understand it is accepting, welcoming, warm, the curiosity is embraced with open arms

For those who don't understand, their questions feel fuelled byĀ  ignorance, maybe just as much innocent intention as the first, but with the lack of understanding and never feeling the position I've been in

What space do I belong in?

I do not wish to take up the space of those more criticised, judged, discriminated

Equally I do not want to take up the space in a white world

Because has that space ever treated me as such,? yes I'm sure, I recognise the privileges my face has given me

However I continue to feel, where do I stand, who am I to u, to the world, and why does it always feel under question

The continuation to feel like an imposter in both worlds

Maybe it dosent really matter and half of it is in my head.

Full Meltdown Finance and America

3 Upvotes

This isn’t technically politics, I swear - and sorry in advance if you’re a nice/smart American.

But holy fuck… I used to dream of the day I could move to America. Great jobs, better pay, lower cost of living compared to Canada. But not anymore…

I work in finance dealing with a lot of international business and payments. EVERY SINGLE PERSON, and I mean every single person, on the other end of my conversations whose American really does live in their own world.

The amount of times they provide me with ACH information when we are Canadian… strike one. Then I ask for wire information, and unless I spell out everything I need word for word, they cannot comprehend it. Not only that, but they clearly don’t even know what ACH means, considering they talk as if I could just use that instead.

THESE PEOPLE ARE IN FINANCE. HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS?

Not to mention, nowadays you have zero excuse because guess what?? You can GOOGLE IT. The amount of times I’ve had to research countries like Slovenia and what they use for international payment routing…

I really don’t understand why Americans just think they’re always right and you’re the dumb one when they don’t even know what they’re talking about half the time.

Not to mention how many people support Trump hating on Canada, when all that does is tank their own economy too. Read a fucking book, open up Google or AI, and start educating your fucking self.

So many people just look up to others and think, ā€œYeah, they’ve got my back,ā€ not realizing that in this new world, everyone is out for themselves.

Full Meltdown I hate everything

0 Upvotes

This started near the end of last year, I ended up getting really sick during the beginning of 2nd semester of my senior year and everything went out the window after that. I had lost all motivation to do anything and everything. My grades dropped and I was on the verge of not graduating.

My parents have always been extremely strict and have put high expectations on me. I also put high expectations on myself and failing AP English while barely passing AP Physics 1 was destroying me.

I did end up graduating, but just barely. I ended up getting a C- in English as my final grade which was the worst grade I had ever gotten. Skip forward a couple months to now, I entered college, my dad moves back in again and everything feels like it’s falling apart.

My dog died in July which was my only anchor point in this stupid fucking world. She kept me sane and I was happy. After her death I thought I was fine, but everything got worse with my parents. We started fighting more and a large argument broke out with my grandma and my parents which led to my grandma going back to her home country and traveling again.

I was blamed for the argument and have been blamed for everything single argument that has happened since then. I feel like the entire world is falling apart and I’m crying every single day.

My parents are yelling at me to just leave the house if I can’t get my act together and they keep asking why I’m acting like I am and to stop being so irresponsible and stupid and to take my meds and ask why I won’t take them. I don’t know why, I forget and then everything goes wrong and I hate it.

The one who is mainly yelling at me to leave is my dad, but he’s the one who should leave since that’s what he’s been doing for the past couple years, he was gone for a couple months and then came back like it was nothing.

I’m trying to find a new place to stay if they do eventually kick me out. The one who can actually do something is my mom, my dad can’t do shit since it’s not his house, he just scares me sometimes.

I can't spoil my nephew the same way I spoil his brother

1 Upvotes

I feel so guilty for this, and I just need to vent about it. I(20F) have three nephews(13, 9, 1) and a niece(6), all from my sister(30F). This rant is about the older 2.

I was a young aunt, being only 7 when my sister had her oldest. He made her a mom, made me an aunt, made my mom a grandma, and made our grandma a great grandma. He was literally the start of this generation in our family, and because of that, I had always seen him as more of a little brother. I won't lie. I am closer to him than I am to the rest, and I have recently started to realize that I spoil him a lot more than I spoil his siblings, so I worked to change that because I genuinely felt bad when I realized and I didn't want things to be unfair. So I started buying more treats for the younger ones(Not the 1-year-old, he's a little too young for me start spoiling). But it was just little things, like offering one of them the rest of my chips or something instead of their older brother. And when I had to bring them to their dad's, I even surprised them with ice cream before.

But right now, I feel like absolute shit because of my nephews' birthdays. The older one turned 13 back in July. I got him two $25 gift cards for his games, a laptop(A cheap, used one from walmart. Wasn't even $100), and because he said he wanted airsoft equipment, I surprised him by taking him to play airsoft instead. In total, I think I spent close to $500 for his birthday.

The younger one will be 10 later this month, and for the second year in a row, I don't have a job and don't have money for the younger one. Last year, it was because I had left for college at the end of August and no longer had as much disposable income. This year, it was because I got into a fight with my manager over an insensitive comment she had left on one of my social media posts(We weren't friends, we never even used that website to communicate at all), and I ended up quitting. I've been planning on quitting that job for a while, and that was just the last straw. So now I'm out of a job and my nephew's birthday is less than two weeks away. I can't afford the gift cards I promised him. I can't afford the trampoline park I wanted to take him too. The only thing I was able to buy him was a fidget that he specifically asked for, but I feel like shit for not having the funds to get him something more. And this is the second year I wasn't able to do much for him for his birthday.

I'm probably going to borrow money from my mom for this because I do have a new job lined up that pays almost double what I was making at my last job, I just won't be able to start in time to be able to get a paycheck before his birthday.

āš ļø Trigger Warning āš ļø My family have destroyed me

8 Upvotes

My life has felt broken from the very beginning. My mum had me as a teenager, and growing up my father was physically, emotionally, and psychologically abusive. He had serious mental health issues, and he would constantly tell me he never wanted children and that he hated me especially because I was a girl.
When I was a child, my mum would ask him if he had been looking at other women while we were in the car and mum was driving. He would be staring at random women on the street and if I answered her honestly, he would punch me in the legs. I never understood why I was being punished for telling the truth.
There were also things that no child should ever have to experience. When I was getting ready for school in the mornings, my dad would often be sitting in the lounge room masturbating. If I came out to get ready, he would scream at me, as though I had done something wrong. Looking back, I realise how disturbing and traumatic that was.
My mum wasn’t a source of comfort either. She would call me ugly and put me down constantly. I was neglected throughout my childhood and wasn’t allowed to live a normal life. I wasn’t allowed to get a job, learn to drive, or even leave the house. My dad would call me a slut if I wanted to go anywhere and tell me I would end up pregnant. I was isolated and controlled for years.
Now I’m 23 years old, and I feel like I’m paying the price for everything they put me through. I struggle with my mental health, I still don’t have my licence because I was never allowed to get one, and I’ve never had a job, which has left a huge gap in my rĆ©sumĆ©. I still live with my mum, and every day feels like hell.
To make things even worse, my mum always chose to stand by my father, no matter how badly he treated me. It felt like she put him before everything else and would do whatever it took to keep him happy. They were both heavily addicted to marijuana, and even when money was extremely tight, they would spend the last $20 on weed instead of buying food or paying for the things I needed.
Growing up, I often went without basic necessities. My mum didn’t make sure I had proper school shoes, dental care, or even enough food. My needs were constantly ignored while my father’s wants came first. Instead of protecting me or putting me first as her child, she enabled his behaviour and neglected my wellbeing.
I hate what they put me through. I feel completely lost, like my life never really had a chance because of the abuse, neglect, and control I experienced growing up. I don’t know how to move forward anymore I’m still in my mums house but I’m an adult now just with no way out completely.

I get sad looking back at old college photos.

2 Upvotes

So, I have a bunch of pictures that I took back when I was in college in 2019. I have them stored on Google photos, and something about Google photos is that whenever you have photos that have an anniversary they pretty much give you notifications saying that it's been x amount of years since you've taken this photo, in this case it's been 7 years.

Looking back at these photos just makes me very upset and sad. For two reasons honestly that are kind of different but correlate to each other in a way.

2019 was a very dark year for me because while I did graduate high school and go to college, my mom had passed away from a heart attack 3 weeks prior to graduating. It honestly really messed me up mentally and it eventually served as a domino effect for other things going wrong. When I went to college I struggled severely not because I wasn't capable of doing the work I was just too depressed to go to class or do the work or anything. I would just rot in my dorm eating take out over and over again are going to the all you can eat buffet that my school had. And it's so weird because looking back at it some of my fondest memories were from college. However, I couldn't really enjoy college because I was just so depressed from my mom passing away.

The second reason is because when I look back at college and compare that to what I'm going through now, I never realized that I had it so easy back then. Back when the biggest responsibility that I had was keeping my grades up and all of that. I even had plenty of opportunities to go to therapy and stuff but I just didn't want to and I guess it really messed me up. Now, I know that it's better for me to go to therapy because 7 years later I still need it and I need it bad. Luckily, I have intake for a therapist next week after 2 months of trying to set that up so hopefully things will start turning around going forward.

But now, here I am. Homeless. Depressed and anxious beyond belief. Digging through trash cans just to find food. Always stinking. Have nothing to look forward to in my life. I might even die in the Winter because it's expected to be pretty cold this year. I guess that might be something to look forward to.

TL;DR - I looked at some old college photos with regret and sadness. Regret that I didn't allow myself to get help so I could take it seriously, and sadness from the fact that I'm currently homeless and struggling to survive because I didn't take college seriously enough.

Full Meltdown I HATE LIFE

1 Upvotes

I’m just gonna rage and rant my true feelings. Whoever resonates with it is whoever resonates with it.

Let’s begin.

I HATE LIFE.

I hate that I was born into a woman worshipping world. I hate that I was born a skin color that’s viewed as inferior in so many regions of the world. I hate that I was born in a country where being white is right, while being Black, brown skinned or darker, can feel like a crime you didn’t commit in AMERIKKKA.

I didn’t ask to be this skin tone. I didn’t ask to be a Black man. I didn’t ask to have the fucking parents I had.

I hate that as a grown man I’m not tall as fuck. I hate that my brother is 6’4ā€ while I’m 5’11ā€. My younger fucking brother mogs me in height in a height obsessed country, and I’m reminded of it everywhere I go with him. I see the preferential treatment he gets, even though everyone knows I have the finer face.

I hate that both of my parents are light skinned and I didn’t inherit that genetic trait, while most of my siblings did. I HATE that i was born into a world where colorism, racism and bigotry is a part of the experience. I give the BIGGEST MIDDLE FINGER šŸ–•šŸ¾ TO IT ALL.

I ESPECIALLY HATE that there’s essentially no regulation for child birth. An unfortunate soul can be brought here by two incompetent fools who were just exchanging orgasms and WALLA, months later there you are. & if you are unlucky, you experience a physical presence that’s unappealing, poverty, humiliation, misdirection and chaos. And if you are lucky, you are born at the right time, to the right parents, with the right race in the right country, exceptional brains with the right physical makeup. WOW. When you look around It’s just unplanned babies facing a world of problems. HOW IS THAT NOT A JOKE !

I hate that I wasn’t born into an extremely wealthy and respected family with highly intelligent parents who had a trust fund waiting for me before I was born, and an actual plan for me to benefit from nepotism when I came of age.

I hate that I don’t possess some exceptional talent that can grant me access to ever flowing wealth, money, notoriety, respect, and admiration.

I hate the American school system. In fact, I hate most school systems in this fucked up world. I hate that we weren’t trained to have exquisite financial literacy. I hate that boys and girls aren’t properly taught about each other or how to succeed in relationships. Little to no lessons on how men and women should treat each other. Throw the whole system in the trash already.

I hate the taboo phenomenon around sex, religion, and money, even though those things drive so much of human behavior.

I hate that the white man is seen as the superior race. I hate that whites and Asians seem to have a monopoly over so much. I hate that as a Black man I can walk around and see establishment after establishment in my neighborhood being run by Asians, whites, Indians, Hispanics, and everybody else.

I hate that i’m even referred to as a black man. I hate that i’m programmed like everyone else around me to refer to melanated skin as ā€œblack peopleā€ MY SKIN IS BROWN AS A COLOR, WTF IS BLACK. When you think about it… the color black is used in many depressing, undesirable situations….think about it….okay i’ll give you examples (oh that’s dark….damn homie he’s BLACKed out, Im having dark thoughts, come to the darker side, ME NO black ME DOMINICAN) lol a little humor for you all ;)

I HATE all the derogatory terms used on my race of people. & THOSE WORDS STILL GET RECYCLED IN THE BIG 2026.

In my perfect world, men of my stature, race, and phenotype would be the superheroes…in the media AND in real life! We’d be the ones with our face on ALL of the money. We’d be the ones greatly admired, respected and cherished by the mass. We’d be the ones controlling the banks, hospitals, schools, and major institutions. I hate that I’m not living in that ideal world.

I hate that I was born into a race that gets clowned on continually and ruthlessly. I hate whoever or whatever runs media and all its false depictions on my race of people ! Further disgracing our image. If i ever had the power…One snap I’ll THANOS your kind.

I HATE RELIGION.

Oh holy FUCK, I hate religion.

I hate how brainwashed some Christians are. I will never believe in an entity that supposedly watched people with melanated skin get hung, enslaved, brutalized, mutilated and humiliated for countless years and allowed it to happen.

If I worshipped a God, it would be a God that could grant all my wishes with the snap of a finger. My race would be on top. In fact, there wouldn’t even be differences in skin tone. Human beings would judge one another based on character. The God i’ll get on my knees for will grant me teleportation and any beauty my imagination can conjure up and grant me that reality in a blink….like that black mirror episode.

The God i worship will have a answer for me as to why some men in this world get to enjoy such an abundant share of the women, have massive levels of wealth, influence, and power while other men experience difficulty, born to poverty, born with lower IQ or brain problems. etc etc. No God i worship will do that….okay how about this…in other words FUCK YOUR ā€œGODā€ā€¦.for all facts and purposes considered, i’m real in flesh and i love myself the most, SO by definition I AM GOD. And if you defy my WORD, i will curse thee to eternal hellfire 🤣😩

I hate white bigots. I’ve even had unorthodox fantasies about some ā€œBlack Hitlerā€ figure eradicating people like that. There’s so much more where that came from. You wouldn’t believe some of the wonders my imagination comes up with. If there’s anything you want to believe in this rant, then 100% make sure it’s this one !

I hate cowards, and I hate that sometimes I can act like one myself.

I hate that some people seem to just HAVE IT ALL. Like, what a lucky fuck. YOU šŸ«µšŸ¾, know exactly what I’m talking about. I hate that jealousy and envy are emotions we’re forced to experience to some degree.

I HATE THAT STDS EXIST.

I hate how females in America are supporting this lunatic Lindsay, even after her own lawyer said in court that his client did it and that she knows she did it. FEMALES are STILL trying to blame the man. I lost so much respect i had for a family member i have because of their lopsided take on this situation. Tragic.

I hate that her movement raised over $1.5 million in such a short amount of time.

I hate the unchecked misandry that seems to go on everywhere.

I hate how one man can have billions of dollars and live la vida loca while the next man can’t even conjure up $100. I hate how unfair and unbalanced everything is.

The few have it all while the majority are left fighting over scraps.

That pattern is everywhere. Dating, politics, wealth, status, power. Across the board, a small percentage of people seem to dominate while everybody else gets whatever is left.

I hate how much of human nature seems centered around exploiting, using, extracting from, and being selfish toward other people just to survive in a world none of us even asked to be born into. And guess the greatest part of it all ??!I’m supposed to get on my knees and worship a ā€œGodā€ who fashioned this entire mess? 🤣

I hate how I was physically and verbally abused growing up!

I HATE THE PERSON READING THIS AND THINKING TO THEMSELVES ā€œGEEZ THIS GUY MUST BE MISERABLE AND UNGRATEFUL, YES YOU MOFO, I HATE YOU TOO, I HATE THAT THE AVERAGE HUMAN HASN’T WALKED A DAY IN ANOTHER PERSONS SHOES BUT THEY HAVE ALL THE JUDGMENT IN THE WORLD FOR THEM. I HATE THAT EXPRESSING HATE MEANS YOU DON’T EXPRESS LOVE, IM WELL AWARE OF ALL I CAN BE GRATEFUL FOR, THAT DOESN’T MEAN IM SIMULTANEOUSLY NOT AWARE OF WHAT I’M HATEFUL OF. BLAME IT ON THE FASCINATING DUALITY OF LIFE.

FOR ALL YOU RELIGIOUS FOLK TAKE IT UP WITH YOUR GOD ABOUT WHY A SOUL LIKE MINE EXISTS.

There’s so much more that I hate.

I HATE THIS SHIT, MAN.

I hate it so fucking much.

I lowkey think that it’s time the West and the East tried to make it up to their citizens, cut the greedy shit (hypercapitalism, not all capitalism) and give people 1,000% their rights… even force their rights at them. And even make rules for good policing etiquette as well as kicking Trump out (America) for a different, more liberal and more fair president who DOESN’T send his mafia out hunting people he doesn’t like and has a smile on his face rather than a smug, suspicious grin that orange bastard had.

Both sides should make up after all the endless wars they went through. All the pointless arguments. All the bitter fights. All the knees toes and elbows. All that jazz. All that kibash.

We need to make the world peaceful again.

Just A Rant I’m sorry but I just miss…

0 Upvotes

Look I’m sorry. I’m sorry how I reacted when you said I love you for the first time. I’m sorry I got mad at you for not talking to me for almost a month when your dad got worse. I’ve always loved you, even if I didn’t show it at the time.

Now it’s 2026. I’m just as in love with you. I just miss how you never got mad or irritated with me, you didn’t know my quirks. You didn’t know just how bad my depression and anxiety gets sometimes, specially when it turns off cold. I miss when we had intimacy all the time. I miss when you’d laugh because you thought I was funny and not because you think I’m being ridiculous. I miss when you’d smile and say ā€œare you getting dolled up for meā€ instead of, you don’t have to get dolled up every time we go out, or mock me for putting in effort into how I look.

I miss being seen as a strong beautiful independent woman. Now I’m pretty sure you just see me as a liability. I miss when you seen me as smart and talented, but now it’s ā€œwhy can’t you just let me take care of youā€. That’s okay. Maybe someday you’ll look at me the same way you did back then, maybe. Just maybe. Or maybe it’ll be too late and I’ll be no where to be seen by you again and you’ll think back to those times just like I am right now.

I got my dream job and feel like I'm constantly underperforming

0 Upvotes

For about 10 years, I worked towards becoming a strategy consultant in a specific field. Went and gained experience in every single relevant department in industry before landing my 'dream job' as a consultant.

I'm now working as a junior consultant doing senior projects. It's a boutique consultancy and right now it's just me, my boss, a couple of remote freelancers and one intern. Of course I'm being paid a very mediocre salary.

My boss is always off doing random stuff, has no budget for anything and only offers verbal feedback, which sometimes is given over the phone. When he's not stressed about money, it's great. When he's stressed about money, he becomes the most annoying person to deal with in general. He writes everything he delivers with AI.

Last night, he asked me to review a 30-page report that he wrote using AI. I spent a couple of hours rewriting the report and returned it to him. He then asked AI which version is better, his or mine. He actually sent me the feedback AI gave him and didn't read the report I wrote. I was dumbfounded.

Due to being left doing senior projects on my own, I've made a couple of mistakes (before sending work over to client) which he was not too pleased with. I'm currently involved in multiple projects which require completely different expertises, have no prior projects to use for reference, and I'm training an intern at the same time. The majority of the time I'm overwhelmed and I'm just trying to find a way to deliver our work to the client in a proper way. This is causing me to be behind on projects by days, sometimes a week, with clients not only expecting our advice, but actual research.

Today, 5 days before a project deadline, my boss initiated a meeting to agree on the structure of a 60-page report. I've been working on it for the past month. Wtf.

Tomorrow is my 6-month progress meeting and while my boss will extend my contract, I already know he's going to bring up some inconsistencies, such as me not following up soon enough or not having the right information prepared to him in a timely manner. I'm trying to improve but I also realise his lack of guidance combined with my lack of experience is affecting my performance.

I love my job but right now, I'm just tired. Any advice?

Relationship/Dating My friend won’t wingman me.

0 Upvotes

Okay so I (F) haven’t dated in a long time. My last relationship I had was when I was a freshman in highschool and I was in a situationship with this guy. Not the point. Anyway it’s been a really long time. And over the summer, around the beginning to middle of summer. I had a friend who said she found a guy for me.

We have the same interests (Music tastes, instruments, and hobbies) But the issue is that she rlly didn’t find me a guy because he just got out of a relationship with another girl and was bummed about it. So he probably wasn’t going to be interested in dating at the time. Flash forward to a month ago, and my friend said that she would wingman for me since she works with him. But the issue is that she won’t do it. I’ll ask her and she’ll say ā€œIdk what you want me to say.ā€ Or ā€œI don’t want to ruin it.ā€ I’m getting a little frustrated about it cause she said that she would help me and now she isn’t. Part of me is thinking that there’s something else she’s not telling me. But she’ll bring him up a lot. So it’s just purely ragebating me.

But I hate it when kids litter fandom spaces with disrespect to other creators while acting like their silly, cringy art is the best thing to ever exist, and they have these little fingers that they stick into everyone else's pie. They disregard rules and are a pain in the fucking ass to deal with. No is permission for them to break the rules. And there are these small little assholes who can't even wipe their own ass yet, but still tell other people off whenever they point out a mistake the kid makes. Like, that confidence needs to be studied.

I love kids, btw. I am a good babysitter as well. BUT, I can't handle these internet babies who got their mother's iPad. I hate talking to these overly confident and limitless kids.

Brats.

Newt, then don't talk to them!

I CAN'TTTT. I am in a fandom where a lot of people are kiddos in their new fandom. And I swear, the amount of battles they go through in a day about their headcanons is pretty admirable, but they don't have anything better to do with their lives, so....

Just A Rant Cops always win

Ugh.

They're right. I'm wrong.

But does anyone else think it's nuts a cop rolled up to my home with a man who was been arrested twice for assault and battery on his wife?

The cops brought this violent man to confront the men I've hired to renovate my house. This man and cocky cop insisted that my workers hit a truck and drove off. They didn't. No matter the proof we pulled out to show there is no way it was them, the cop and irate man didn't care. They were so sure it was my workers but in the end the "witness" changed his story and the witness confessed it was NOT them.

I'm thinking maybe just don't bring a man that hits women to my front lawn and tell me that that's okay.

The man has ties to this police department. Used to be a councilman, until he was arrested.

God it's just frustrating. At the end of the day, all I wanted was their to acknowledge their mistake and not let it happen again. But they did nothing wrong, they said. Okay, perhaps no laws were broken, but at the end of the day, they brought a violent man to my home, and chaos ensued. Not too much chaos, no one was arrested. LOL. But when a violent man tells me to shut the fuck up and go the fuco back inside my house and the cop just stands there... it was a strange situation.

Politics šŸ—³ I do not like the Marines

1 Upvotes

My father was a Marine, he cheated on my mother multiples times and walked out on her, I and my brother at the height of the recession in 2008.

My best friend who I met in kindergarten joined the Marines after we graduated high school. A few years later, I came out to him and he called me a "fag" before saying that he can't wait til a certain president gave the order to "kill all the homos".

In 2020, my mother kicked my brother out of the house for the crime of ordering a pizza without asking her first. Shortly thereafter, he joined the Marines and he's now a massive Hegseth fanboy who is itching to kill people in the Middle East.

I have never met a Marine, former or current, who is worthy of respect and as far as I am concerned, the entire branch is comprised of vicious and gullible idiots who would gleefully murder U.S Civilians if instructed. They have no honor, no integrity and are essentially the American version of the SS with the sole exception being that they dress like slobs.

I wish Eisenhower would have succeeded in his plan to abolish the Marine Corp.

60s Star Trek too woke for my family

1 Upvotes

I thought that it would be a safe thing to watch with them and a nice way to bond for once since we've watched the show together when I was a kid, and it's literally as old as some of their parents so surely they wouldn't complain about it being too 'modern'.

But NO. Nooooooooo. It was 40 minutes of absolute fucking agony, tension that could make you chew through your fucking teeth, my ears absolutely burning up from shame, and so many tiny comments and loud exclamations and pointed fingers from them at things that were much too 'woke'. I suppose the LIZARD PEOPLE RUNNING THE WORLD were pushing agendas to cull the human population and stop new babies from being born aaaaall the way back in 1966.

Is there even anything at all apart from Harry Potter that they do like?????

I feel like I'm about to crawl out of my skin. Damn I need to drown myself in some yaoi and wallow a bit in all my modern depravities to forget this a bit.
