God, the "age of consent" being at 25 freaks me out.. If I didn't become legally an adult when I did I don't know if I would have been still alive today

These thoughts about consent and everything are all well and good as long as you assume a perfectly healthy family. But what if it's not? What if it's dysfunctional? Or abusive? What if the environment you're in is straight up unhealthy for you?

It really feels like child abuse is very much an afterthought. Despite it being much much more common than people in the past thought. And child abuse is something that comes along with you through your entire life, and if you don't at least try to handle it, you're just left a broken person further harming yourself in ways that society is not kind towards, and we're left with what society considers to be "problem" people.

Sounds all well and good until you don't have any responsible adults around you

I'm in my late 20, I was failed as a child and teen. Not because I had too much freedom, but because the adults did not treat me with respect, like a person, and were not responsible. I mean, my parents were straight up abusive, but it's not like anyone else helped

I would have unironically been better off alone

Yup, checks out lmao (I got CPTSD)

God, it's so exhausting to constantly be paying attention to the smallest changes in people's "energy". It has probably made others annoyed with me more than anything else

Exactly haha. A poor person can say it to joke about themselves and their circumstances, a rich person doing so is just in poor taste..

I swear, the amount of times I've had someone complain about abortions or gay people being unnatural while at the same time wearing eyeglasses and living in a place filled to the brim with televisions, phones, computers, radios, electrical lights, internet, electric ovens..

Sounds like something I'd do lmao

And this is why every hermit that people claim is so wise is always pissed when people come to them

They put in as much effort as possible to get as far away as possible and yet..

Pedestrian streets don't allow personal cars or taxis or buses at all. Only work cars

I don't get why this isn't just what's being done instead of confiscating stuff

Don't take peoples personal stuff, just don't allow them to be used during a class

I haven't, but Americans sure as hell are about to

We're about to see a fascist america, and this is what you're worried about?

Do you also feel bad for the Nazis in pre-war germany who got harmed? Or even killed? Chances are you don't

Our world is about to become very different to what we're used to. Get ready for it. Playing nice won't win you the war
