I wouldn’t say that I “scold” my daughter when she starts saying gender biased shit, but I correct her (by explaining the reasoning behind it) every single time. She hasn’t done it in awhile now, and encourages her baby bro to have the same attitude. She is also 6.

They must not be able to, Desperate for a Shag Giles (aka best name in kinja history), because if they could they’d be saying “omfg what am I saying”. Saying there’s no size bias while explicitly being biased against non-sample sizes in the same quote is fucking nutty!

This is my everything right meow!!!!!!

It was incredibly invasive. I hated it. And totally legal as long as they gave 48 hours notice. Lived there for 3 years, basically in constant fear. I paid rent months ahead of time sometimes, but always a week early at least. They sent a $2000 bill to collections when I moved out claiming I took the fridge, which…

Maybe this isn’t common, but I’ve lived in places where they inspect the apartment every single month to make sure people are keeping their apartments according to the rules. I would’ve been evicted for some shit like drilling holes in walls. Someone once got evicted for not removing the curtains that weren’t approved…

Landlords have so many laws protecting them, I can’t imagine them giving a shit.

I bought this very malm dresser years ago and it didnt come with wall mounts or warnings. It may have because this was before injuries were widely publicized. Our fast food coffee cups didn't always used to say “caution, hot” either.

I’ve lived in several places like that. Not even thumbtacks were okay.

I would resent that shit, too. That’s fucked up : (

I had one of these for my daughter. It was soooooo top heavy. Like... even with all the drawers at the bottom full, if you pulled out the top one it was really easy to tip. In fact, it did one time on me, once on my husband and once to my daughter. We were lucky she didn’t get hurt. We replaced it.

Hahaha for sure. I give her all the stars for pulling herself out of a very scary, powerful cult. My husband’s mother was a super scary culty Christian (Halloween is the devil’s birthday, gay people wear rings that cut themselves and you when you shake hands to give you AIDS, some weird...incestuous but not actual…

Yeah... I actively avoid confrontations. Once in awhile, I can’t bite my tongue and my anxiety goes through the fucking roof, I’ll have to vomit and everything. Like when my MIL and her husband started gay bashing, or once my BIL did on another occasion, and another time when a man was talking shit to a woman for…

I think it’s working for her. Leah is getting her groove back!

Hit publish before I was done! I saw this documentary on Viceland about WBC and one dude went to make a documentary on them and was so “changed” by the experience that he packed up his family to move halfway across the country to work as their media manager, making fucked up videos and shit. Anyway, his eldest…

The thing that always amazes me, as an interested person of “escape from religion” stories myself, is how these religions are always basically cults, even if it’s a “mainstream” religion. And society just lets all this illegal shit go on because it’s religion and people are... I don’t know...hesitant to talk badly…

DUDE I can’t lie either. It’s quite hellish actually. I can’t even fib to children or loved ones.... it just doesn’t come out! Even when I jokingly but seriously try with my husband, he makes fun of how stuttery I get. This forces me to remain a quiet person because I don’t wanna say anything that would upset anyone…

Contacts being the shed in her backyard?

Also, uh, cops being the on-the-ground enforcers of law that often do it incorrectly or not at all.
