Lies that scientists want you to stop believing #6343450: The lie that before civilization, life was just “every many for himself.” All anthropologists universally agree that the human species has always lived together in groups which have mutually aided each other, including taking care of those who were unable to gather resources, such as children, elderly, and disabled.

I think the key to a happy life as an adult woman is to channel your inner weird little girl and make her happy

This is true. Gotten the “we are better off as friends” because of mental health things I was working on and they took it as if would be their burden to bear and “too much” to deal with.

They did you a favor in hindsight even tho I know how much it must’ve hurt you.

Oh for sure! They found out the hard way that my quality of love and affection is rare, regardless of my personal issues, when they were DENIED re-entry to my life. It be like that sometimes.

can confirm from pastoral experience

One of the biggest power moves I have here in the midwest when someone is being racist, sexist, homophobic is that I tell them that I’ll pray for them so that god can grace them with empathy, or that “I feel sorry the devil has made his home in your heart” cause you have not felt joy until you’ve flipped the script on a suburban house mom or an old racist white man.  The joy of watching their face in shock and confusion while they’re called out in Christian Standards the same way they try to cover for their homophobia is amazing.  100% suggest it, at the very least it gets them to shut the fuck up.
