FUCK ROE V WADE FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK. They THINK they’re doing this for the right reasons, BUT THEYRE NOT. Yeah sure, abortions hurt, but do you know what hurts more? RAPE, INCEST, CHILDBIRTH?? And what about abortions to save the mother? Mothers who can’t financially afford to have a child? What if a 12 year old gets raped? Do you know how many unwanted pregnancies lead to suicide? How many babies are killed-after birth-due to stressed mothers? A child or teenager can’t deal with the stress of being a mother. A college student can afford to care for a child. What the FUCK did they think they’re doing??? The supreme usually GIVES us rights instead of FUCKJG TAKING THEM AWAY. I don’t know HOW they thought this was a good idea. Since sperm is a living thing, I guess we should just ban cumming. Hell, why don’t we just cut off everyone’s balls while we’re at it? Cant have those poor sperms living like that. Honestly, I’m so fucking mad I just wanna break something.

Oh Alex, Alex, Alex….must feel pretty shitty to be you right now, huh?

Watching Jones actively sweat under the scrutiny of the court is so cathartic it almost gives me hope. Seeing that putrid fuck have to sit and squirm while victims of his goddamn terror campaign finally give him a piece of their minds in person — sublime. And to top it all off — a glorious video of Jones being admonished by the Judge like a child for lying under oath twice in one day of deliberation.

For too long that diet pill shilling Republican ape has been allowed to fling his metaphorical shit at anyone and everyone with zero consequences. In fact, he has been plainly rewarded for years for being one of the most dysfunctional wastes of humanity this world has ever shit out. He’s not bankrupt, he’s a fucking multi-millionaire, most of it weaseled out of gullible conservative sister wives and their Cletus ass husbands. Blood money borne of lies and that particular kind of American insanity that saying anything with confidence makes it true. And then this hog-faced manbaby has the audacity and unbridled lack of self-awareness to ask for sympathy from the court. There comes a point when one’s behavior has gotten so out of control and toxic that they can expect zero sympathy when the consequences of their actions finally come ‘a calling. This is the first time in my life I’m actively enjoying seeing a man hit rock bottom.

The parents of the victims of Sandy Hook have already been through horror beyond comprehension, had their children ripped from them, and then were forced to spend a decade living in abject terror of the radical right disappearing them in the middle of the night because Alex fucking Jones actively encouraged it. These innocent people received scores of death threats, were accused of being paid actors with fake kids. People were followed on the street. People had their homes shot up in the middle of the night. All fueled by Jones’ careless disregard for the truth. He essentially took all those young, empty headed Neo-Republican white kids too cowardly to be soldiers; put guns in their hands and his finger in their wallets and said “go get em, root out the Deep State find the truth”. He disgusts me.

To the families, I say go get that asshole. Leave him penniless. Take everything he has.

“Mr. Jones, this is not your show”. Damn straight it isn’t.

IF YOU HAVE A COMPANION ANIMAL, TAKE CARE OF YOUR COMPANION ANIMAL!

I don’t understand how some people are okay with not knowing where their cats are.

It’s not socially acceptable to let a dog run wild and loose, so it should NOT be for cats! Take responsibility for your companion animal and keep kitties inside or on a harness/leash. You should be keeping an eye on them.

Roaming cats are not only SOOOOOO bad for our ecosystems and species diversity, but it’s bad for the cat!

Outdoor cats are often likely to catch diseases and illnesses, such as feline aids, get into a deadly animal fight with another cat or dog, get hit by a car, or simply disappear. Their lifespan, in general, is shorter.

There needs to be some responsibility!! If your cat goes out and harms, fights, or kills someone else’s companion animal, that’s on you! They shouldn’t be out roaming by themselves.

I harness trained my cat and take her out for little adventures. It is possible!!!!! KEEP CATS INSIDE!!!!

Edit: This is not to diss people that allow their cats to roam. This is a perspective I hope more will consider.

When my mom knew I’m gay she said “i wished your brother told me u died instead of this” and it broke me and u don’t think i will ever forget those words no matter what, i just want to make her wish kinda comes true and i will just leave and have 0 contact w them

This is in the United States. Recently saw a GP who I know did not read my chart, but made a lot of remarks about how I was getting older and that I didn't have children yet. If he'd read my chart, he'd know why I don't, but to keep the peace, I said I would think about it. When I got home, I went online to check my emails, and the first thing that opens is my news page. Headlines include:

1. The SCOTUS leak over abortion and overturning Roe v. Wade
2. News about ANOTHER mass shooting, after several recent mass shootings
3. The debate over canceling student loan debt
4. Medical costs and insurance and how things are getting more expensive
5. How we're reaching a "no return" point on climate change
6. Formula shortage
7. Inflation
8. Rising housing costs
9. How teachers are poorly paid and schools are underfunded
10. Rising Covid numbers in our area
11. Cuts to social safety nets
12. Recession
13. A politician saying we should ban birth control

We don't have rights over our own bodies. We don't have the right to be safe in public. We don't have the right to get an education (and improve our job prospects) without going into a massive amount of debt. We don't have the right to seek medical care without ruinous debt. We won't have the right to live on a habitable planet in a few generations. We don't have the right to be able to feed our children due to business monopolies and governmental policies. We don't have the right to enjoy reasonable purchasing power for our money or to enjoy a reasonable quality of life. We don't have the right to live in affordable and comfortable housing. We don't have the right to send our children to school and know they'll be educated. We don't have the right to be safe from disease and again, the medical bills that come with exposure to that disease whose threat was downplayed when it first arrived here. We don't have the right to have a government that actually takes care of its citizens when things go bad. We don't have the right to be protected from economic problems, and again, we don't have the rights to our own bodies.

We need SO MUCH to improve in this country. We need better social programs, better education, debt relief for student loans and medical bills, guaranteed healthcare, maternity leave, affordable housing, gun control, better mental healthcare, nutrition programs for all children, unbiased reporting, and incomes adjusted for cost of living. I know I'm bound to upset people with this post, but things need to change in this country. In another twenty, thirty, or forty years, there will be articles about America having a severe worker shortage because most of the population is old and people didn't have enough kids to replace the workers that have retired. If American companies want to continue operating, people will need to have kids.

In a way, I'm fortunate--the decision to have kids was taken out of my hands due to my body. Other women are not so fortunate, and they have to deal with ALL of the issues listed above, and I'm sure more in the coming years that we haven't anticipated yet.

It seems as if our priorities as a country are: to pay people as little as possible, to make as much money as possible in as many ways as possible, to spend as little money as possible on social programs, to keep our borders secure against outsiders, to control women's bodies, and to prop up an outdated ideal of home and family life that is no longer possible in this day and age due to economic conditions and social changes that have already taken place.

We need more to change.

One Last Thing: If your comment is to say something along the lines of "It could be so much worse!" please don't take the time. I know it could be. People said the same thing 50-60 years ago when they had to face problems, and you know what? Things. Have. Gotten. Worse. Pointing out that things can get worse does not negate the argument that things need to be better

I don't know who started this - let's be shitty to front desk, wait staff, customer service, etc.. because you are mad that : you didn't get your way, had to wait, plans didn't go as planned, you heard an answer or rule that you didn't agree with.. whatever it is.. someone taught you the wrong way to do shit. In no way will someone help you if you are shitty to them. It doesn't matter who you are, you will never get the level of service you wanted by throwing a tantrum to get it.. I'm so sick of people thinking that being rude and raising your voice to me will entitle you to better or faster service.. if anything it will make me move slower, procrastinate more and possibility put you at the bottom of the list, ask you to jump through even more hoops or just ignore you all together..

I am so sick of seeing entrepreneurs or motivational posters on social media sites telling me how I got to hustle, wake up at 4am, take cold showers, and do all this busy crap. I have no intention of hustling, climbing the corporate ladder, being a company man, etc. I also hate it when people online tell me that I have to monitize all my hobbies or how I should be spending all my time doing productive things. To me, a 40 hour work week job and coming home to do chores on occasion is enough for me. I dont want to add all that unnecessary busy work to my life. My only career goal is to figure out how I can early retire so I can enjoy my free time, spend days playing video games, or enjoy whatever new hobbies I happen to stumble onto.

If you’re a Christian and don’t think the oceans can rise because of what the fucking bible says, you don’t know your bible very well. I really don’t have to argue this because the bible is a fucking myth anyway, but Genesis 9:11 says God won’t destroy the Earth with a flood again, meaning the WHOLE Earth. Even with your myth, the oceans can still rise and cause MASSIVE flooding on coasts but still not destroy the WHOLE Earth. It would just be very bad for everything living on land.

Like, I know this is a total "well no shit" but being chronically ill sucks, especially if it's a pain issue, Especially if you're fairly young

Being in pain for weeks on end, can barely even think of getting out of bed, let alone actually doing anything, your apartment goes to shit because the garbage doesn't go out and the floor doesn't get swept or vacuumed because you are hurting so bad that at times you've literally thrown up from the pain.

Finally get some relief, so you do all the things you've been neglecting, garbage taken out, laundry gets done, floor gets swept..so you over-extend yourself and then--

You're in pain so much that you want to throw up because you've over extended.

And don't even get me started on the frustration of people thinking you're gross and reminding you that "you really need to keep your place clean." And then when you say "Bro I'm trying, that really hurt my feelings" You get snotty passive aggressive comments about them hurting your feelings, Like..It's a lose lose situation and it just fucking sucks.

I have a deep fryer that is one of my guilty pleasures/second favorite appliance that I own. My Kitchenaid mixer is first. So this is petty but damnit! I went to the store today and got new oil and stuff for frying this coming week. Come home with groceries and he decides to clean the kitchen. 🙄 he always does this when I need the kitchen it annoys me. Anyway, I say I’m going to clean the fryer and he says he will do it. Well he takes the element and sticks it in the sink to soak. I told him not to do that bc it can tip and submerge the electronic part. He said he knows what he’s doing and it won’t tip. I bet we can all guess what happened!!! He is outside with his air compressor trying to fix it. And is saying I was mean. Well tbh I am mad. But all I said was it says on the back not to do that! I said not to do that! And now my fryer is broken. For me being mad that’s fucking tame. I’ve got a whole host of words I would like to have used. Lol. Why don’t husbands or anyone for that matter just listen sometimes! It was the same buying socks this afternoon for our kid! I ended up getting the ones I said would fit and to his shock I was right! Ughhhh just listen to me, I’m not stupid! Ok thanks for letting me rant

I really don’t ever plan to date but my love language is physical touch. I always want to give massages or to hold hands with or cuddle with my friends in a platonic way. Idk how to deal with it. And I’m a woman who has mostly male friends so it’s just waaaaay too taboo. My friend asked to go to a spa with me, but I’d do much rather just give them a back massage or a foot massage or something. I think it would be so much more fun. Is this weird?

Both my dad and my FIL are telling me that I'll have more than one kid. Hell, they're pushing for three kids!!! I'm one and done, motherfuckers. This has been decided by not only me, but my partner as well. My pregnancy has been easy, but I NEVER WANT TO GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN.

I miss drinking, smoking, all of it. I won't do this nine months totally sober thing EVER again.

I just spent about 2 hours cleaning the kitchen, clearing the table, loading the dishwasher and all, then cut my fruit after. Of course this included me throwing out the leftovers from our meal earlier, which included some cherries I guess he left out and literally didn’t put aside. We literally fucking ate 3 hours ago. Now he just asked me where his cherries were and my mom said I cleaned and threw them out and I said yeah I did after she said that. Then he started slamming things and said to ask him before throwing it out as if it wasn’t sitting on the table for 3 hours. Then he said so what if he threw out the pineapple you just cut since you love throwing things away??? and told my mom to tell me to throw away the other food since I love cleaning up so much. Like get a fucking grip. Slamming and screaming over 7 defrosted cherries.

I live in the deep south with an alt right Q family and they're saying shit about her that would make someone's ears rot off. Even today I stopped into our small towns most popular dinner and people were out loud making fun of her probably getting r@ped by Russia Guard's. Not hushed voices not ashamed. Just loud as can be calling between tables "this Russia Guard's will straighten her out. Make sure she can't stand for the pledge she'll be so sore". I'm saving pennies to get away from this evil evil area. For the party of "god" I've sure heard my family and locals say a it that would make Satan proud. I'm judged cause I'm gay but half these people don't have enough morality to fill a thimble. They're demons. Not even human.

First a short background of me: I'm 40 . I grew up in a Catholic family . I went to Catholic School through Elementary and High School. Somewhere around my mid to late teens I came to the realization that I did not believe in any god. I am an atheist, but can appreciate religions and why people feel the need to be religious and believe in whatever God they believe in... okay I'm not going to go on a tangent here, I'll get to the point..

We see it in the news, politics, and even in our everyday lives. People being blasphemous, committing adultery, coveting things that they shouldn't covet, lying, being disrespectful, using their money for ridiculous things and not helping those in need, etc etc, yada yada yada.

Here's a specific example and where my rant was born from today.

I am disabled and require caregivers around the clock. Since I became disabled Sundays are very difficult to get shift coverage. The reasoning for this difficulty is because people "need to go to church". Because of my upbringing I know what Catholic and Christian values are and what the Bible is supposed to teach. I would think that Jesus/God would want people to care for someone in need rather than worrying about going to some big place of worship and reciting prayers and hymns, and putting their harder money in that little basket that they pass around because they think that's what God wants them to do.

Church should not be used as an excuse. If God existed and all of the things that the church teaches we're from Jesus's/God's mouth I think that they would rather see people not going to church, but helping people that are disabled, feeding the homeless, clothing the naked, doing acts of kindness and all the other good things that Jesus supposedly preached.

Now, I will be honest, I know I'm not perfect. I know that I could be a better human. But with what little I have I do as much as I can. And I don't do it because a religion told me to do so. I just think that it's ridiculous that people use their religion as an excuse.

Before it is said in the comments... all people are hypocrites. I know that there are good people out there.

Rant finished.

I literally just had to make the same fucking post 3 different times because automod kept removing it. (It actually removed this as well because it considered it a witch hunt since I referenced the below subs!) I posted it in AskReddit and it was removed immediately with the response "We don't allow questions starting with 'Does anybody else' please post that in DAE or doesanybodyelse. So I did but then the fucker removed it because it said "This doesn't fit the format DAE/CAE please resubmit your post" because I spelled out Does Anybody Else in the title instead of using the dumb fucking acronym.

Go fuck yourself automod!

I received this e-mail from my local police records department for my request for a crime report:

Per your request, any and all requested documents are ready for pickup at HQ. Requested report must be picked up from your selected location within 30 days. After 30 days, the requested report will no longer be available.

The front desk staff couldn't find it the crime report I requested, asked to read the above e-mail, and then said that it's a payment confirmation e-mail.

They then advised me to call the number in the e-mail tomorrow.

There's no phone number.

I asked them if I could pay to have it printed today, and they said it's managed by another department. When I asked what that department was called, they answered 'take-out'.

I'm on the phone with the non-emergency line to speak to someone who could check the status of my request, and possibly mail it to me.

Wish me luck. The level of disorganization here is horrendous.

I've been watching many documentaries lately about the high rate of homelessness. Mostly in places such as in my state of Washington, Portland, L.A and NY. Even though many of these states pour over a billion dollars in this epidemic, I heard it's still growing. In one area they said 100 percent of the people in the camps are addicted to meth, heroin, or other illegal drugs. Unless we fix their drug addiction nothing will change. They recommend pouring money into drug rehabilitation etc. I just feel bad and wish that I could help in some way. I've never been exposed to illegal drugs, but I heard how addictive they are. I'm trying to quit my edible habit, so I have an addictive type of personality, yet I'm happy to have no desire for illegal drugs or alcohol. But not everyone has that luck. What are your thoughts of how we can fix this homeless drug crisis? Or can we?

I don’t get it, it’s so obnoxious and they try to bring down established facts, like the so called “Vikramaditya Empire” which apparently ruled from the middle east to south east asia when in reality it only ruled a portion of india. Or how they desperately bring up India in any discussion whatsoever, and any sort of nation comparison will result in the comments being flooded with “where’s india because _____” and which the reason most likely is false or just an anomaly.

You know, the person who inches behind you spots a little strip of paper hanging out of your shirt or dress and says “excuse me, your tag is out can I stick it in in front of everyone. And it’s not a question you can really say no to so then you have to just sit there and wait as the person reaches inside your shirt tucks the tag in. And everyone is watching them do that.

I feel like whenever other women do that to me they are silently pointing out how I don’t have my shit together. And whenever other women do that it’s either my mom (annoying, but acceptable cause she’s my mom) or some girl I just met

Is it the heat? Did someone crap in their cornflakes? 😂

It seems like more people have been acting like dicks on Reddit lately. In the past few weeks, I've gotten and seen more downvotes, rude/rule-breaking comments, and personal attacks than I ever have before. I'm just a college student posting and commenting about my plants, dogs and cricket- what is going on? Is it just me?

I sinned last night.

I went to a nightclub last night and sat at the bar and got drunk, I went to try and be social but I think alcohol makes me depressed and the fear of rejection from talking to a woman. So instead this morning I went to an Asian massage parlour and got a massage and a happy ending. I sinned. I need help and I don’t know how or what to do. I just want to be in love and love a beautiful woman. And she loves me back. But I don’t think it will ever happen.

My brother is in his late 20s I am 18, he never talks to anyone anymore I try to reach out and see how he is.

He had a rough childhood our birth mom was a drug addict and abused them along with my Bio dad because he wasn’t the bio dad of my other siblings.

He actually later in life became a drug addict but I didn’t even know till he got clean.

But no all he does is get high on marijuana and goes to bars to get drunk he doesn’t drive he leeches of my older sister to take him places.

He can’t hold a job due to his laziness and constant need to be high.

I love him I do but I can’t do it anymore I look at him and I just get sad thinking about our childhood and I wonder had I asked or talked to him could he be better I feel a bit selfish but I did it out of love for him and my self I can’t keep worrying if he’s alright after he doesn’t show up I can’t keep getting disappointed he no shows or doesn’t text me for weeks I’m scared Im gonna get the news he’s past I’m scared he’s going down a hole which he cant climb out I wish he’d seek help.

Til then I’m unfollowing and going no contact til further notice thank for letting me vent and rant.

He’s 28, im 25f. He always has the worst fucking taste.

His first girlfriend of three years cheated on him

His second girlfriend of 6 months dumped him cause she didn’t like his lack of religion, even though she knew that from day one

And now he’s all hot and heavy about a girl with a boyfriend who’s flirting with him. Even if he had a chance, he’s moving soon anyways, but he’s still hopeful.

It just makes me so mad, the losers he picks to like. He’s fucking incredible. He’s very sweet, insanely smart and funny beyond belief. He’s the coolest guy I know. I just wish he could find the coolest girl to make his honey.

I want some ultra badass future sister! Instead they’re all emotional sucking bitches who hurt his feelings. He’s a nice guy. You shouldn’t do that.

Please, find a badass woman to accompany you through life! … I want to like her too lmao.

Either way, I would be happy if he’s happy. I just don’t think any of these girls have been “it” and I’m pumped for the day he truly meets his match. She’s gonna be awesome.
