  • My parents have sold all of their assets trying to take care of my dad who now has late stage Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. Yesterday I saw them watching the signing of the beautiful bill like it was going to be a big relief on their lives.

    They acted like I had lost my mind and that I was delusional when I was trying to tell them that they will no longer be eligible for Medicaid under this.






  • Just sitting and having a casual lunch with my dad at work. Sack lunches that my mom had made us! When he nonchalantly tells me that women aren’t people and only exist for men’s enjoyment. I basically completely froze out of shock as he spends the next half hour trying to use excerpts from the Bible to prove his point.

    I haven’t had a conversation with him since and that was nearly 20 years ago. Also realized that Christianity is not something I want to be associated with.

    Funny thing is that he used to be adamant that god uses Parkinson’s to punish only the worst sinners and he’s got it now… Apparently there was some engine cleaning solvent my mom desperately tried to get him to stop using? The government banned it because it was giving people Parkinson’s so he stocked up on it to prove my mom wrong…







  • My brother sent me this meme an hour ago… Problem is, he believes it… He is not very smart. He is the kind of person who thinks that the memes in wallstreetbets are some kind of conspiracy level of good advice because, and I quote, “They can’t just go out and say it, that would be stock manipulation and possibly insider trading!”

    I’ve been trying to convince him since that buying Tesla stock right now is a very, very bad idea. It’s not a very good idea at all.



  • They put him in a freaking turtle suit!?!

    That’s suicide prevention clothing in jails… Dude probably doesn’t even have a mattress. It’s likely that the only things in his cell are him, the turtle suit, and maaaaybe a bible.

    They’re called turtle suits because jails are actually pretty cold. Not dangerously so but just cold enough to be uncomfortable. If you’re wearing one you’re on suicide watch and they don’t let you have anything else in your cell. No blankets, mattress, books, underwear, or anything. The only real way to get warm is to get into a fetal position inside of the turtle suit. Like a turtle.

    I got a surprise suicide booking in a jail way back by a cop who didn’t like me. Kept me in there for 2 weeks with zero human contact. They wouldn’t even say your welcome when I thanked them for my food. Found out when I got out that they were telling the court that I wasn’t mentally suitable for court.

    You lose your mind very quickly in those conditions… My paranoia is telling me that they definitely want that…
