  • My dad does this almost every single time we talk. Ignoring him doesn’t work, correcting him doesn’t work, he’ll just not acknowledge I’ve said anything if he doesn’t like what it is.

    If the issue is important enough to correct him on, I have my husband repeat what I’m saying. That seems to work. The words need to be attached to a penis in order to be understood.

    This also works in other contexts. If I’m ever too exhausted to take on someone like that head on or they just refuse to listen to me, the only real solution I’ve found is to have another penis holder make my point for me. Some people will not budge no matter how clearly out of their depth they are, unless someone they respect is talking.

    I’m in Canada and my issue is every machine wants you to tap somewhere different. They all have a label somewhere indicating where to tap, but sometimes it’s on a screen, sometimes a sticker somewhere, sometimes a handwritten note next to the machine… and there are so many other signs and stickers all over the place that I often don’t spot the right one right away, so it takes me a couple of tries. Other than that it’s very easy.

    But the cashiers always look at you judgingly like “why don’t you know how to do this basic thing?? It has the little logo RIGHT THERE beside these other 6 flashier logos.” Or at least in mind that what they’re thinking lol





  • Don’t try to do it all, and if you do, know that you’re not a failure just because you can’t be good at everything. There aren’t enough hours in the day to be fit and healthy, a good mother and partner, excel in your career, have a clean home, and have a thriving social life. Everyone that tells you you can have all those things either has staff helping them achieving each of those goals or is selling you a lie.

    Celebrate your wins.






  • Very true. One of my pet peeves is reading about female characters who, unlike other women, don’t wear makeup and spend all their time doing nerdy hobbies only and never do anything at all to take care of their appearance because that’s a waste of time… But their hair is always shiny and bouncy and they are fit and their skin is smoooooth and their boobs are perky (of course they are!) and, most importantly, they always fall for the main character for absolutely no good reason.
