Your parents are awful. You deserve so much better.

Wow, your family is being really shitty. You deserve better.

People treat mental health stuff like it doesn’t exist. Like if someone has a broken arm, and everyone tells them “Just stop having a broken arm!”

If only it was that easy

You make a good point about common advice often being too simplistic and generalized to be useful. And yeah, dating is rough. Glad you got better advice in the end.

I feel like the phrase “sleeping like a baby” was not created by someone who was a primary caretaker for a baby.

Thanks!

oof.

That’s fascinating. Do you have suggestions for any resources that talk about how to do this in a healthy way?

Glad you’re here with us

“The status quo is extremely unfair in my favor, get used to it pleb”

“Don’t be a quitter” is like saying “Fuck your boundaries. Stay in toxic situations no matter how bad they get.”

That’s so rude. People make such wild assumptions about other people’s lives.

I envy the people who can be themselves at work without losing their job the same day. But only a bit, because it looks incredibly boring.

Ah yes, the good ol’ “Just get over it” technique that is supposed to work for any mental health condition.

Maybe in some situations in the past owners were better to their workers, but in many cases there is an unbroken line of exploitation going back in the past. The idea that exploitation is an extremely new phenomenon benefits the owning class by concealing the long and bloody history of proletarian struggles.

14 years is a long time. Hope you’re having a better time now.

Oof. A lot of “helpful advice” about jobs is helpful not for the workers, but for the owning class.
