never did link my account to an email address. so that's an email i never got. 🙂

i don't expect you to sacrifice yourself. i just think it's likely you're not the sole "good people" in bama.

i suppose i don't feel i have the expertise/experience to educate you about black hair and how rules regarding hair can be racist, but i think the issue is a lot more complicated than you realize and worth looking into.

i can see another lemming provided a lot of information. i hope you will look at it.

as a white person, i'm not gonna claim expertise on black hair, but i can see you don't know much about black hair or the historic and current relevant politics.

wow, i hope so, it's a nice thought. but i kinda doubt it.

i would add to this that early conceptualizations of psychology have had massive cultural impacts. if you enjoy art, film, literature from the last century and change, it's worth knowing about Freud and Jung.

their ideas represent an evolution of thinking about people, their minds, their relationships to others and to their environment or to god, but they also underpin so much we take for granted at present in popular culture and day-to-day conversation (at least in "the west").

makes me feel bad for kids who can't afford out of state tuition, tho

if i could parent my oldest kid again, i would let him struggle more and fail more.

the inevitable rude awakening was ROUGH.

edit - grammar

the only time i ever lost a paper/document (at 13, for social studies), was on an apple IIc. then i rewrote it. i cried A LOT.

it has never happened since, and writing is a significant part of my job. i learned the hard way.

amazingly, chemistry has given us the ability to have a better quality of life, even when our brains work differently.

when she's 25 and benefitting from meds, she may resent it if this was not an option you explored with her.

detestable?

but... if you really like your shampoo, why not buy $35 worth at once?

indeed, lots of people make poor decisions regardless of age. but statistically speaking, 24 year olds have resources (experience, development) which increase their capacity to make better decisions.

someone at 24 has several more years of experience in the adult world. someone at 24 has several more years of neurological development (which isn't complete until around 25). in other words, at 24 someone has better context for decision-making and better decision-making ability than someone who is 18.

yeah, they really advanced environmentalism with this dumb shit. 🙄

or paint, that's been a thing.

really pisses me off, environmentalists attacking art, of all things. random art didn't cause environmental issues, and they're undermining their own message with the sheer absurdity of it.

wow, that headline is a whole journey

i also notice nobody mentions the possibility that cartels could try to take advantage of any significant unrest in some states. i doubt states or feds want that mess.

to drown parents and kids, i guess. ☹️

but honestly, i think Abbott is engaging is massive political theater. i seriously doubt that man's interests are served by actual conflict.

i keep seeing comments like this. i want to point out texas has a LOT of poor and uninsured people, but the state economy is pretty decently sized with a lot of business investment.

that's not really a bad thing for preventing secession. you think those with energy and tech money want their shit fucked up by Abbott and MAGA?
