Adoption isn't always the better alternative to abortion!!!

					
					

:#marseykween: :marseyabortedgenocide:

Woman explains it's more dangerous to put the baby up for adoption and better to kill it outright to prevent slavery.

Various women in the thread say they wish they were aborted, lots of hating on the mayo menace.

:marseyflamewar: r/LosAngeles - Is anyone else feeling pandemic- like feelings all over again? :brooksannoyed: :bushnelltantrum:

					
					

I just need a place to vent, and I'm not even sure if this is making sense. It feels like 2020 all over again. I'm finding myself so frustrated with the lack of "reading the room" from some peopleβ€”like seeing people washing their cars or just carrying on as if life is completely normal.

On one hand, I get itβ€”if you weren't directly impacted, you still have to work, eat, and live. But I'm at the gym right now, and I can't shake this guilt. Like, how are we all just here, acting like this is fine? (Though I've convinced myself that taking care of my mental health is important right now.)

Then there are the people in this subreddit asking things like, "What's the best WiFi provider in LA?" or "Why hasn't my trash been picked up?" and I'm sitting here like, umm hellooo?? It's so hard for me to focus on anything because my mind is just stuck on the people who are being impacted.

And this is coming from someone who isn't directly affectedβ€”but I'm 1) close in proximity, 2) have close friends and community who are going through it right now, and 3) have a partner on the frontlines helping with evacuations and dealing with looters (which is insaneβ€”how are people even taking advantage at a time like this?!)

I'm doomscrolling, getting frustrated with the lack of empathy, but also trying to remind myself that people don't know what they don't know. Still, it feels like 2020 again, listening to selfish people argue about masks, completely detached from the reality of what's happening.

What's really crazy is that I still have to work through all of this. The lack of empathy from employers is so frustratingβ€”it feels like we should all be given at least a week to process because this is just a lot. I'm also in my PhD program, and it's nearly impossible to focus right now. The lack of understanding is just wildβ€”how can anyone expect us to function? I just wish I could do more, but I feel so stuck.

Is it just me? I feel like I'm living in this alternate place where life is happening around me, but I can't focus because it's not okay…

Thank you all for being my outlet. I've decided to channel my frustrations into something productiveβ€”I'll be volunteering tomorrow and taking full advantage of that Google sheet of opportunities. I also serve in the kids' ministry at church, and I've decided to have the kids make cards for those impacted. I'm going to try to turn all this frustration into action and do whatever I can to make a difference πŸ™πŸ½
