There are people here on Ask who are very nice. I acknowledge and appreciate them even though I’m Miss Crankypants right now. You should see the crap I get in my inbox sometimes that doesn’t see the light of day. I’m going to start ignoring the stupid stuff and focus on the good folks. ✌🏼Otherwise, I’m expecting a nephew in June and that makes me happy.
You've got a friend in me,
You've got a friend in me,
When the road looks rough ahead,
And you're miles and miles,
From your nice warm bed,
You just remember what your old pal said,
Girl, you've got a friend in me,
Yeah, you've got a friend in me.
Can you use "they're", "their", and "there" in one sentence? Bonus points if you can throw in "your" and "you're" too. Extra bonus points if it makes me laugh. I'll be giving out 🔥🔥🔥.
I don’t care if they’re supposedly looking out for me, their sex questions are never getting answered because they shouldn’t be going there to begin with. 😤😠
I wake up every day grateful for divorce, grateful for my own place (frustrating and dramatic as it is), grateful that I finally found my voice, stood up for myself, and fought for my life. I’ve learned terrible lessons about myself, about others, about trusting people, but thank God, I learned. I am not happy. But I am grateful.
I wasn't being mean, I was asking an honest question. No one is perfect, and I assumed it's something you'd thought about. Sorry.
I’m definitely not perfect. I’ve made plenty of mistakes. Marrying a sociopath was one of them. I got married almost 20 years ago. TWO DECADES. Are you the exact same person you were two decades ago? The bottom line is that ASKfm needs to stop obsessing over my divorce. I owe you no personal information. I will eventually lose patience.
Are people geared to care primarily about others who more so resemble themselves?
I think a lot people make others who are like them a priority because they relate more and are more likely to put themselves in their shoes. This could be a conscious decision or a subconsious one, but their mind tells them that if this person who is like them is dealing with whatever, that it can happen to them too. And that triggers empathy in certain people.It’s not set in stone. There are people who have a broader view of humanity as a whole, and are perhaps educated or at least cultured enough to realize that people who appear different really aren’t that different from them at all. And if they are, it’s simply not a valid reason to disregard them or think of them less.Some people with deeply humanitarian views and goals choose to specifically reach out to people who are different from them, perhaps because they recognize their own privilege and feel strongly about achieving equality.And unfortunately, people exist who serve only themselves. They’ll help someone, but only if they believe they will personally benefit from the result.I do think the majority falls into the first category, as you stated. I hope that by bringing this to light, we can encourage others to be self-aware, accepting, and empathic with their life choices.
I slept late, then got up and dressed, hit a few Pokestops, went to the store for cornmeal and half and half, came home and cooked, ate, and now I’m on the couch resting before I wash dishes.
What was the last song you got stuck in your head?
Music from Let’s Go Eevee is stuck in my head at the moment.
When was the last time you had a milkshake?! What was it?!
