what the hap is fuckening

I took my little brother (autistic, mostly non verbal) out and he was using his voice keyboard to tell me something, and this little boy (maybe 4 or 5?) heard him and asked me "Is he a robot??" I tried to explain to him that no, he isn't a robot, he just communicates differently, but my darling brother was in the background max volume "I am robot I am robot I am robot I am robot"

for real tho it feels exhausting that ive seen this whole "woman should be allowed to abstain from X beauty standard" -> "i perform X beauty standard, am i evil? do you think im evil? please forgive me i came up with a dozen excuses 🥺" since like 2015 (and i know its been going on longer than that) like girl thats not the poiiiiint

look me in the eyes. repeat after me. "i face societal pressure to perform this beauty standard. i should not face that pressure. i conform to this standard. i am rewarded for performing to this standard. i need to respect women who do not perform this standard. this is not about whether or not i am a sinner for wearing makeup."

I don’t think you can raise your children in an isolated ‘off-grid’ way without being massively fucking abusive. Every few years there is a news story about an abusive and/or neglectful parent taking their children out of society and forcing them to rough it in the woods with no medical care, education, socialization or interaction with others outside of the familial unit and it usually results in someone dying or being traumatized for life. And people are sympathetic towards them online. It is fucking evil. Isolating children only benefits their abuser. It takes a village. You know damn well why they don’t want anyone else to teach, speak to, play with or watch out for their kids, control.
