bisexual friend asked if she could bring her straight boyfriend to a queer dance night and I told her no

— Shae Reloaded (@judgementshae) September 18, 2024

Ok

Not really any of my business

Heckin brave

brave would be telling her to stop dating men

Millions of seething bisexual foids in the replies

So your bisexual friend can't bring her partner because they are a straight man? Why are people on this app so okay with being openly biphobic? Your BISEXUAL friend is still part of the community whether they are with a man or a woman, please remember this.

Imagine not letting your friend bring their partner because you're just that biphobic, this is kinda pathetic

She claims it was because she didn't like him as a person, which is totally fine, but then she straight up starts making biphobic jokes in the replies.

The amount of losers who feel confident playing out their biphobic twitter discourse IRL is funny. OP is gonna have no friends in a few years and blame the world.

White Queer Update:

You can now be biphobic to straight men.

>Wypipo are LE BAD

kindy nasty and jobless of you to do so, admit you're biphobic and save yourself the word count

she should take them to a nice gated field so he can do straight guy stuff like run around and be hand fed oats

Or maybe to a drag event so he can do transgender stuff like suicide

As you should tbh. Not about to get called a at the queer dance by him.

all the "ew biphobia" responses feel like a psyop to make our spaces even less safe by forcing us to allow straight people at queer events. this isnt biphobia in the slightest, if you think this is real oppression you have zero problems in life and no respect for other queer ppl.

Do they believe homophobes want to go to "queer dance party"?

If I can't go on fishing trips anymore for fear of some redneck frick murdering me. The straight woman's boyfriend can't show up to f@g night. Give👏Them👏Nothing👏

You love making up scenarios in your head to be mad about huh

I had been going to the same lake every opening season since I was 8 years old. Last time I went, trump flags everywhere, multiple people going on and on and on about trans people in sports, in bathrooms, how they're all p-dophiles

But go on, be the whiny prick you want to be

Oh my fricking god I am so sorry that you were subjected to people that disagree with you. This truely is a crime, it sounds like you almost got fricking murdered

Thanks twitter for reminding me that white neighbors discourse is just as r-slurred

Her straight boyfriend hearing the news that he doesn't have to go to queer dance night

!friendsofspiderman !superheroes

i hope all my friends in south georgia and florida are fricking staying safe, motherlover!

it always makes me cringe and a little nauseous. i 1000% prefer "underwear".

i cringe at it MUCH more when guys say it, rather than other women, especially in a sexual manner.

i feel like this could be something that stemmed from childhood since its the term my dad would always use and i just began to resent it more and more over time.

The biggest fight I've witnessed between my brother and SIL was over her and her family calling my toddler niece's underwear her "panties" lol

I remember as a kid fighting with my grandma about it too! She insisted girls have panties and I said it's underwear!! I think even then I was creeped out by the term because it seems to sexualize more. Like if you want to call it that for a mature woman go ahead, but why on a child??

Yes, there's just something icky and off about the word. Like its not offensive obviously, but its not a nice word. I prefer underwear, undies or knickers.

Me too! It's bc it's used as a derogatory remark….keep your panties on…it was a pantie dropper…lame work now

Panties sounds creepy and borderline paedophilic to me.

Yeah the word just feels creepy

I hate hate HATE that word. I'm a grown butt woman - I wear underwear, not "panties". "Undies" mayyyyybe. "Briefs" or "drawers" are fine, though. The P word is infantilizing.

The best part is, the ToS didn't change. People just got so offended by the possibility that their p-do selves would no longer be tolerated that they immediately started sperging out until the FA staff had to tell them that nothing was changing

Newsweek

The dog's owner told Newsweek: "Each morning when I feed the kittens, [Dakota] pushes her way in. I usually bottle feed them and she's always right there, even at 4 a.m., as they need to be fed every three to four hours at a time."

The video shows Dakota waiting patiently outside a door before it's opened, after which she heads towards the bathroom where a carrier containing kittens is seen inside an empty bathtub. The tiny feline friends are later shown scattered around the bathtub, with Dakota sticking her head in among them.

"Dakota is the best foster assistant when we have baby kitties. She loves to help me feed them & babysits them too! #fosterkittens #saintbernard #animallover #fosteringsaveslives #fostermom"

Not kidding: I was reading about this game on various websites but.... this is all so fricking boring, dull, soulless.... just repugnant to look at, to the extent that I even got bored of the meta-drama surrounding it, and got distracted by other topics, so the threads and stuff that I am about to link here are already inactive because of this.

Either way, this game looks ugly, talks ugly, smells ugly, sjws pwned ebic style wokes on suicide watch total chud victory yadda yadda blah blah I do not even have the energy or enthusiasm to explain this shit, even redditors are pooping on the game and the trend of intentionally ugly character designs in Western games, but religiously proclaim "not to offend certain people, but...." first in order to not be excommunicated as a heretic.

Sony deserves a prize for making something so uninteresting that even its critics are getting bored of criticizing it!, it is bad even from a "so bad its good" or "play it ironically" perspectives, even /r/GamingCirclejerk is finding it difficult to defend something that everyone except r-slurs on ResetEra liked, the image in the OP is the only meme fanart that I was able to find, but other than that, there is nothing of a community for this game, no fanart, no memes, no soyjaks, just nothing special.

I'm not saying don't vote for her, but the full throated bootlicking is totally unnecessary. We should be holding her feet to the fire over the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank, her reversal on universal healthcare, a real solution to the hideous gun violence, climate change, and so much more. Don't let your fear of Donald Trump allow her to skate through promising nothing more than a mountain of cash for certain people like the home building industry. (-2)

Okay, I am not bootlicking, I like Kamala, I agree with her politics, I think she is an incredibly accomplished, intelligent and capable woman who will lead this country in a direction that it needs to go in if we are to move forward. I will post my support for her, and I will encourage others to look into her policies, look at what she voted for in the senate, look at the program, the back on track program that has been implemented across the United States of America to keep non-violent offenders out of prison. I will not stop talking about her policies and how wonderful she is because I believe in her.

Dude I have an idea: what if we made it practically impossible for nutjobs to get murder toys? Say, why don't we do that, instead of limiting the kinds of things folks say? Words and ideas aren't inherently dangerous. Guns have one function. We let FOX and OANN and RSBN and all kinds of politically charged content flow 24x7x365 and haven't had to shut them off, despite being able to link some actual domestic terrorist manifestos echoing those same ideas. We can find the radicalization directly in Bill O'Reilly saying "Dr Tiller baby killer" and that subsequent assassination. Still, no limits needed. Let's not be cowards and assume that deadly weapons are somehow suitable or appropriate for everyone. I mean, the entire rest of humanity on this planet has figured out that deadly weapons, without any sensible restriction and regulation, are just too dangerous.

From the people who made the ad:

BARDO, the team that brought this project to life, began with a poll commissioned by Elizabeth Cabraser and Eva Paterson. It revealed that uncommitted voters could be swayed if made aware of Trump's alarming statements, such as his willingness to terminate the Constitution or act as a dictator. 50% of voters in America are swing voters.

Our poll showed that this information could shift 7% of these swing voters toward the Democratic ticket. In response, Paterson began creating a dystopian video to highlight the dangers of a Trump re-election, incorporating animation and a strong creative team. With $150,000 raised, the Bardo team believes this effort could be crucial in deciding between Vice President Harris or President Trump.

ive never made a post before sorry ill try my best

In outpatient practice I inherit or get a lot of new patients that were on stimulants for reported ADHD that are either retired or chronically unemployed their adult lives (many on disability for one reason or another, sometimes questionably). Obviously, many are resistant to coming off stimulants. In these scenarios I try my best to assess any ongoing necessity for this - for instance people getting in MVAs because their ADHD is do bad when unmedicated. The people I'm speaking up mostly sit at home watching TV and aren't doing anything cognitively demanding. They'll often complain of poor motivation even with stimulants. I also discuss diet, exercise, sleep schedule, and try to maximally treat psychiatric comorbidities. In my mind, potentially forgetting to finish the laundry or run an errands isn't worth the risks of taking a stimulant in perpetuity. How do you all handle this discussion? I try to give everybody a fair shake, but I'm sure my skepticism shows through in this paragraph.

I could get on my soap box about overdiagnisis and oversaturation of ADHD in the clinic setting, but I'll leave that for another time.

this was the original post, and a lot of "fellow psychiatrists" and patients chime in

for those who admit they arent a professional, i will mark them in bold

I just had 6months off work and I tried to not take my stimulants because of this type of thinking "why bother, you're not working" but turns out ADHD affects more than work !? I was frustrated and unproductive without it, unable to initiate tasks. I eat well, exercise, go to therapy blah blah blah. Your patients might need it to function at baseline.. even that boring life of watching tv, doing chores, not having anger outbursts or sensory meltdowns.

My advice would be ask for a trial of a lower dose but make them keep an activity / mood diary to track tangible difference. Or switch from long acting to short acting so they can use it for targeted activities. But also, just try ease up on the capitalist mindset that work is the only legit reason for meds.

the op replies, earning himself 9 downmarseys:

I understand where you're coming from. I've had patients and close friends that can't function daily without it. So I know it happens. Regarding jobs, I meant more from a highly cognitively demanding standpoint, not really a productivity thing. Thank you for your input!

another person replies, earning themselves 17 downmarseys

"anger outbursts or sensory meltdowns."

Anger and sensory meltdowns are not ADHD symptoms and stimulants are not the solution

to interrupt, you might be wondering why its a problem to just give someone ritalin or something forever

to keep it simple, stimulants, which are usually a form of amphetamine, put a lot more strain on our bodies cardiovascular system

long term use can eventually lead to issues with your heart

to be less medical, high doses, which are increasingly common with internet or phone doctors, can make you feel very irritated, on edge, and wired, possibly making things like anxiety much worse! it is an amphetamine after all

so someone who doesnt do anything with their life that ADHD might interfere with (i.e, being unemployed), you are just damaging their heart and their wallet slowly overtime for something with little therapeutic benefit

anyway

Assuming they stay unemployed (stimulant or not) and the stimulant improves quality of life (employed or not), I don't see the point of making this distinction apart from a moral value judgement. If the stimulant isn't helping that should be addressed but that's a separate issue from whether they're employed or not. Surely the goal is to improve quality of life, with employment hopefully being a consequence of that? Not the other way around.

unsurprisingly, a patient thinks this is a moral judgement and totally unfair

If i give a stimulant to 100 people, ADHD or not, I'd bet good money more than 90 of them would say they feel better and are more productive. It doesn't mean everyone should get adderall if they want it and feel better.

op got downmarseyd again for this

Of course, when I say improving quality of life I mean correcting the reduced quality of life caused by the disorder. Presumably the reason you prescribe stimulants to people with ADHD is because the benefits outweigh the risks for them and not the general population. Either way I don't see how your reply addresses why employment is a factor in this

a patient still doesnt understand why keeping someone on drugs forever might be a bad idea. then again, they are a 19 year old posting on drug subreddits and about adhd quite a bit so, im sure you know the kind of person they are

Your use of productivity in this way seems inconsistent with treatment standards. Is there a reason you're not examining the degree of improvement to life domains? Your proposed metric seems biased towards puritanical ideas.

When my patients talk about "not getting anything done", that counts as productivity (chores, errands). People are really trying to roast me on this $ and capitalism ideal I made no mention of. Part of my job is to minimize risk, I'm trying to do that job the best I can. That includes difficult discussions with people about controlled substances.

You didn't answer my question.

I stand by my position that you're using a puritanical lens here rather than the standard of treatment (to weigh the benefit to their life domain functioning versus the risks). Whether someone is working or not is irrelevant. Considering you based your question on something that you've failed to explain the relevance of is the basis of the judgment you're receiving, IMO.

I've explained time and time again in this thread that not all people need stimulants when they're not doing something that they need maintained attention and concentration. Examples being work and school. This has nothing to do with morals or whatever you're getting at. The standard of treatment is to balance risk/benefit. When you prescribe stimulants, how do you manage it?

"I've explained time and time again in this thread that not all people need stimulants when they're not doing something that they need maintained attention and concentration."

That is the problem. Life is dimensional, not categorical. Your thinking that someone needs stimulants (or doesn't) based on sufficiently intensive tasks completely ignores the benefits of stimulant treatment to their life domains outside of what you have judged as meeting your identified threshold.

"This has nothing to do with morals or whatever you're getting at."

I find it utterly chilling that you still have been unable to even begin to understand my point, especially considering the complete absence of attempts on your part to clarify your understanding. You don't get it and you've demonstrated no interest in changing that. You seem utterly emblematic of paternalistic medicine.

Learn more about the ADHD experience. You're overly invested in your own viewpoint. I'm signing off of this conversation. Good luck.

by the way this guy prescibes adderall to a guy who smokes weed daily so

op tries one final riposte, but the downmarseys are too strong:

I'm talking about having a discussion with patients about why they may or may not still need their meds after a dramatic change in lifestyle. If you think that doesn't warrant a discussion about medications, you're mistaken. Yes, I use my judgment and my thresholds to prescribe. That's how my job works. If I left my prescribing entirely up to my patients, I'd be really bad at my job. Adderall and Xanax for everyone!

almost the entire thread is against OP here, and seem to think those with ADHD are some sacred cow you dare not deny their meth

You're fixing something that isn't broken.

I used to think when I was a younger psychiatrist that people who are unemployed or don't have a job should not be prescribed medication for ADHD. Don't they just sit around all day? But I started looking at each case with more nuance.

Sometimes, these people with ADHD, although unemployed or retired, have significant problems with irritability, insomnia, and are at higher risk of abuse of substances when they are not receiving treatment. Forgetting all their grandkids, kids, and spouses birthdays and anniversaries and forgetting important medical appointments also can cause them significant problems in their lives.

TLDR: If the patient's social or occupational functioning is impaired, I treat ADHD, whether they have a job or are in school or not.

when you cant eat or brush your teeth because you dont have your meth

this reply annoys me a little specifically, its really common with ADHD discussion online to mention 'irritability' being common with ADHD sufferers (it sort of is), and that stimulants will somehow improve that situation

it can quite often do the opposite! adverse affects are so commonly ignored in discussions and even by those that prescribe it themselves

common sense would tell you this but its controversial at this point to believe it might not be some miracle drug for every problem in someones life when they have some level of executive dysfunction

The idea that you need to be producing value for share-holders in order to earn treatment for your mental health problem is a very dystopian take, IMO.

What an unhinged comment. Productivity does mean making money. It can be chores and errands. Many people can manage fine without stimulants when not working or in school. I'm not talking about their contribution to society. I wanted to know how other mental health professionals approach this. I don't know what's with these capitalism witch hunt comments. We have a duty to assess risk/benefit. That's all

ADHD impacts many areas of life, even in patients who are not working. If you explain the risks and benefits, and they want to continue, why fight them? It seems like you're assuming that this particular patient population has the same values as you do, which is probably not the case. Your job is to treat illness and reduce suffering, not to be a stimulant cop.

stimulant cops

there is a bit more in the thread, and more comments rolling in because its a fairly fresh thread, these discussions often go this way online about ADHD

this is my first post i hope i did it right thanks for reading
