I admire that you’ve got a sense of humour about it. How are you holding up?

Ha! Good point. Water is fires biggest enemy. She knew it was really hot and dangerous, everyone was panicking

I’m in awe of you. Genuinely

It’ll be hugely useful in a post apocalyptic world though

This one’s definitely my favourite. A great thing with lemmy is you can change instances and change your name whenever you fancy it! I look forward to seeing your future costume changes.

That’s a fun skill! You’re also clearly good at picking usernames

I’d like that skill!

I love peanut butter m&ms!

That sounds cool I wonder why they stopped it

That’s a niche skill I like it!

Great tips 👌

Ha! So true

Been there my friend

Thanks mate I re edited my comment to put it all back incase it’s helpful. And absolutely, gender can make a big difference to how a child is treated. It is kinda good that you don’t know what you’ve missed. I get what you mean about childhood still haunting you, it’s really hard to unlearn things we learned back then. Therapy can really help, it can change how we think… it’s about self development not things being wrong with us

Thanks shades, didn’t click about that. Really appreciate you pointing it out.

Absolutely

These are really valid questions! I’m a fiercely pro dad woman, and I’ll try to answer. IME people’s relationship with their dad tends to be different to their mom, they’re two different roles and two different people. IME people tend to go to dad for practical stuff (financial advice, DIY, moving things etc) and mom for home based practical and lengthy emotional discussions. Dad will also do emotional stuff, but often different style eg pep talks. For protection stuff, IME people go to dad.

Yes I love and miss my dad very much. A good person accepts mistakes, no matter what their role. And you can always go to a good parent cos they’re always safe.

I’m sorry you didnt get the dad all children deserve. Have you found [email protected] People post when they need dad style advice or a hug.

Thanks otp, unfortunately I struggle to read text on lemmy coloured backgrounds. Writing is also just going to unavoidably foil me sometimes. Please bear in mind, the way written language developed is neurotypical, and so not how my brain is wired. If everyone’s brain was wired like me, written language would have developed differently. It isn’t as simple as learning linguistic rules… if it was, I’d have done that years ago.

No of course it wasn’t drag queen’s that’s ridiculous. It was caused by trans women using a public women’s bathroom.

Yep I’m neurodiverse I do that sometimes. Please don’t comment on my symptoms in future, it isn’t very nice for me. Thanks for understanding ♥️
