My biggest pet peeve is being talked to AS SOON as i wake up. I hate that shit. Stop tryin to communicate with me. Stop askin me questions. Im tryna understand the universe all over again dont talk to me yet ur gonna confuse me and piss me off.
Why the fuck do people say “fix” when they neuter their animals
It’s not fucking “fixing” them it’s fucking them up
If I hear you say “fix” when you mean “neuter” I lose respect for you because it’s not fixing them you pieces of shits
Dumbass over here clearly not understanding the whole reason people “fix” their pets is to “fix” the huge issue of population control. U know when cats/dogs go in heat (or smell a female in heat) they do everything they can to excape and go get jiggy causing a shitload of puppies/kittens to be born and either become strays (and susiquently mess with the local ecosystem) or go to an already overcrouded shelter.
(And it dosent matter if your the best pet owner in the world and your pet never leaves your yard, other animals from your neighborhood will have no problem comming in your yard to mate. Sometimes you just cant control that)
Trust me your little baby going through a surgery and a week of discomfort (with pain medication thats usually provided by the vet) is significantly better than hundreds of animals being born on the streets to starve/get hurt/get sick/ ect and grow up to only make more strays to face the same suffering.
Not to mention that usually getting animals spayed/neutued also tends to make them less agressive meaning less likly they’ll get into fights with other animals or try to run off potentially getting them hurt.
so we’ve tried explaining vaccines using science and that scared people
but what if
instead
we told them that vaccines actually contain magic rocks or healing energy
“we left this rabies vaccine in the light of a full moon to cleanse it, so it’s safe. everyone knows about the link between rabies and full moons :)”
“vaccination is an ancient practice going back at least hundreds of years that draws on your body’s natural healing abilities to let you fight disease naturally”
Think about what you were saying when they used to talk to you. Think about your choice of words and tone. Think about why they tried to come to you and why they don’t anymore. When you shut them out, belittle them, and blame them for all of their problems, you will lose them. And that will be permanent.
This.
My therapist legit called my mom out on this shit. She keeps calling me a “non-functioning adult” and my therapist heard her say it and was like “WOAH! Ok you need to stop that immediately. Do you realize you’re belittling her? That you’re labeling her for life? You then judge her for having low self-esteem and drive to do things when you actively oppress her by labeling her like that.” And I glanced at Mom and him and Mom was like real quiet and was like “okay”. She has yet to say it since. So yeah. Parents don’t even realize this shit. And I’m almost 21… This happened less than a month ago. You are talking to tiny humans. Treat them that way! Like a human!!!
Also!!! Not to detract from this point but to add on: are you initiating interactions with them? (Beyond reprimands and etc.) Just like with any other relationships in your life, if one side always has to be the one to ask for attention and start conversations, its inevitable they will assume you just don’t care about them. Why would someone come to you if they think you don’t care about them past controlling them or punishing them?
