The last decade of the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon, I found it to be cringe and a relic and often downloaded everything not Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy they worked for.

Now, it feels like getting rid of it broke Labor Day and the world.

You don't know what you've got until it's gone.

How much of an asshole would I be for saying this to a cousin?

"I wish I had no dad [because he voted R in 24] and that your dad [dead at 41, suicide] and husband [dead at 46, heart attack] got to live instead."

I mean, my dad committed the Ultimate Sin which even death won't redeem.

Circular MLB team logos remind me of the Vent logo and make me miss Vent as it was a place I could be truly unhinged. The Minnesota Twins and Washington Nationals shouldn't remind me that Jamie was shortsighted.

It Vent isn't killed, Kamala would've won too.

I wish my Dad would pass away so I can move on from him.

He already died to me when he voted Republican in 2024, showing that he is pro-cruelty, anti- immigrant, pro-rape, pro-child rape, and anti-decency and kindness.

This is not the father I knew growing up who seemed largely decent.

Today, I mourn the loss of these family members.

Father, aged 76.
Aunt, aged 75.
Uncle, aged 74
Uncle, aged 72.
Aunt, aged 71.
Stepmother-in-Law, aged 66.
Father-in-Law, aged 64.
Cousin, aged 49.
Brother-in-Law, aged 26.

Cause of Death: Certified voting Republican in 2024.

Please bear with me.

Old woman I've followed but not friended on Facebook for 8 years sent me a friend request.

I'm rarely on Facebook and haven't interacted with her on months because of assorted reasons.

Why am I hoping she got hacked...but we aren't friends though.

I think I saw a former Vent mutual at a supermarket a good 2.5 hours from home (20 minutes from her) and I'm not well right now.

As if today wasn't enough of a debacle (ask me about my day).

I have a good friend who has 3 kids (10/f, 7/m, 1/f) and she was in mourning when her second potty trained. She legit missed changing diapers and is happy she gets an encore.

Somehow under that server's logic, feeling for her makes me one of those ABDL's who made themselves incontinent, right? 🤦🤬
Same server:

Power User, mid 30s/F: "If I could relive any year of my life, it would be my first as a year because he was chonky."
Me: "Do you miss them being dependent on you?"

Somehow asking if you miss having a baby is also somehow sick. Really people?

And your server is open without judgment!

Tales from a unhinged Discord server:

40ish Dude: "I know kids are stressful, my [tween daughter started starting]
Me: "I hope you're the period-aware dad buying pads and candy."
40ish Dude: "Of course!"

Mods: "You have a sick kink that makes us uncomfortable so leave."

Umm...what?

Aaaaargh!!!! Why must I be chatty and needy now?

Need someone to spill too. Who's around?

Me: "Let me schedule my therapy appointment for a slice of the week I have the house to myself."

Two weeks ago: *Doesn't have the house solo.*

Tonight: *Work forces me to do 2 hours overtime for implied volume that isn't there, forcing therapy to a packed Tuesday.*

Ughhhhhhhhh.

I...what's the less harmful term for relapse...did whatever that is for Instagram yesterday.

Good lord some people there have not changed a bit there in the 1.5 months I was gone. It's like moving on from them is going to be easy.
April 17, 2025 at 1:08 AM
Good lord. Egge deleted my account for one post about men and, well, 🍇🪚.

It took six minutes. No warning or anything. Six minutes.

I didn't think it was possible to out TalkLife TalkLife but Damn.
March 23, 2025 at 2:03 AM
My phone's about dead and I got roped into couples therapy because Dead Grandma with Great Niece Gate was a last straw.

I hope I survive.
March 13, 2025 at 11:08 PM
I gave into Egge. Same name as here.

Pros: It's not TalkLife
Cons: Good lord, it's buggy.

Well, that overcooked tortilla pocket took a piece off of a tooth.

Nice of you to do this right as I've booked a ton of travel.

Am I an asshole for this?

A month ago, [Partner['s paternal grandmother died at the age of 89.

[Dead] had not been in good shape for a time, she had spent much of the last decade battling dementia and prior to this was a bit...complex. (1/)
February 27, 2025 at 4:59 PM
I love how me posting about how your grandmother died a month ago but nobody said anything and sharing the two pictures of her with your daughter makes you flip out.

This when *every other time* I've shared similar you've done nothing.

This becomes even more apparent when held in contrast to...

Have you ever heard about a man being raped?

I sure haven't.
February 7, 2025 at 4:39 AM
@ferris-bueller.bsky.social How was your day?
January 24, 2025 at 2:07 AM
This is a pleasing meme. I will talk about nice things and I'd love to hear about yours.

1 like = 1 thing I love

I've had an awful morning and would greatly appreciate the distraction

If your womb bearer was raped and aborted said baby and had you, can you get trauma from that in utero?

Asking for a friend.

@pierrotwillow.bsky.social How has your day been?
