anyway weight is weird and dumb and the fact that society has placed so much worth into a number is gross
also also this is very off topic but someone needs to stop me from going off in my english class about anything and everything because i write paragraphs even when i don't mean to and i haven't written anything in a long time but like bruh
tuesday i went off about MLK and stuff because my teacher asked us to comment our thoughts about a quote from him and stuff
lol okay gonna disappear for a week because i forget i exist here at all see ya next time nerds
I'm incredibly bad with essay writing, not gonna lie. I could write a paper about why I love Saga but research papers?? essays?? analyzing stuff?? hell no
sadkgfh bye!!
Research and persuasive papers are so much fun tho?? when they're a topic you're interested in?? because it's a chance to show off your brains and writing ability and be like "look how smart i am" lmao
okay for those of you who are concerned:
i made a post for easy weight loss tips that dont involve hours of treadmill running, on my makeup/beauty/fashion advice thread, but i can post it here too if needed. i know some really good tricks for losing a couple pounds at a healthy rate without having to spend hours working out
second, yeah it's super easy to gain. and trying to starve yourself(skipping meals, only eating tiny portions, etc) doesn't help prevent because then your body starts storing fat like crazy because it's worried for you, just a heads up. a couple days of left over pizza is a couple pounds added(drink lots of water. water bloat goes away faster than sodium bloat) and i know it seems horrible but it does go away! as long as you take care after noticing it, you'll be fine
Big same, I think I finally sucked most of the dopamine out of it though, I haven't consumed it in anything other than art on pinterest in a while
I think I read one of the books a while ago but I didn't know there were more?? I'm off to investigatei think there's only like two but im??!! gonna read it vv soon
rapunzel and the vanishing village / rapunzel and the lost lagoon
but yeah
been thinking about cassandra lolol
"i just think she's neat"
I'm generally okay with my weight, but my double chin is…mmm. Don't like it. My face is very soft and I don't want it to be.
same here.
like I don't care if I've got a bit of a tummy, it would be a bit hypocritical to think bad of myself for it when I find other girls with soft stomachs aesthetically hot as hell, but my face? no likey. doesn't work on me. make it go away >:1
do the ee oo faces
Okay so. My parents have a control app on my phone where they can control what apps I have, and they just (like ten minutes ago) took away Goodreads
Five or six hours ago I posted a review for a book where one character who is a man talks about maybe shapeshifting into a woman. I talked about this in my review
Now my Goodreads app is gone, and I am terrified. I am literally shaking because what if my mom read that review and that's why it got taken away? What if I'm about to lose all freedom over what books I read again? I'm about to cry and I'm terrified and I am so so sick of being in terror of my parents controlling what I do again, I hate this so much, I hate them so much
How would they have found it though? Idk about the app, but on the site it's not exactly the easiest to find your own reviews and there's not like a chronological list of them
sort of off topic, maybe not
control apps like that are really weird to me
maybe it’s just because I wasn’t really supervised with my internet usage (I was, by the slightest amount. But like. My parents never got anything to supervise me on the Internet. which I think was mainly a good thing, but also a bad thing in the way I’ve been exposed to Stuff I should have not been to begin with. but anyways I’m rambling)
like I’ve read several experiences(complaints, rather) of people having their internet usage being monitored by their guardians and there are multiple things that seem wrong with it
I don’t really know how to put my thoughts into words, but just know on stuff like that I’m pretty much against it. could be bias on my part, but that’s how I feel
on the goodreads thing, I don’t really know about the app itself or how it works (I’m not too familiar with those things, sorry) but I’m not sure if they would have been able to find the review?
They may have found something else on goodreads that provoked them to remove the app (unrelated to what you put out). But I’m not sure. That’s the only thing that I could think of.
its because its a direct violation of privacy and individual rights but so many parents think that children, especially theirs, are beneath having rights. you know. cause children arent humans
and like GOD FORBID your children GROW UP and MAYBE become THEIR OWN BEINGS
lots of those controlling parents seem to have this mindset that children belong to them, like possessions. even when you hit adulthood, you are still "theirs" in their mind and they try to control what you can and can't do to yourself or like
it blows my mind that there are parents out there like that, and then there's my mom who's casually like "maybe I should get an app like that for you and your sister" when I ranted about Ice's parents doing that a while ago. it terrified me because I am far from like them and I don't want them to know just how much I've diverged from them and their views
no the app shows things in order of like. publication of reviews and tbrs, and i am the only person my mom follows. that review would have been right at the top the second she opened the app. so.
if i was an adult and they did this to me it would be abuse but since i'm a minor it's somehow okay?? and i hate it so much, i'm literally turning 17 this year, i'm almost an adult and they treat me like i'm 12 years old, i have no say over my internet or devices, i can't have social media without their permission, i can't even choose whether or not i go to church. even if i have really bad cramps they make me go. i have to beg for more time on Notebook on my phone, i have to live in fear of them going through my phone or the books i'm reading, and i am so sick of it
i'm pretty sure that their controlling behaviors cause 99% of my mental issues, but if i said that they'd be like "what issues" or blame it all on me
Ugh, I'm sorry Ice. Parents like yours are the worst.
yeah. i wanna see a therapist and see if said therapist can get my parents to chill the fuck out bc it's legitimately not good for my mental health
here in PA, kids 14+ are legally allowed to get therapy and mental health help without letting parents know. so legit I could go get therapy without telling them and the law says I don't gotta
nice, idk what the Nebraska rules are about it tho
also have this link that i wish i could get my parents to read: https://www.fatherly.com/love-money/monitoring-kids-online-activity-doesnt-help/
its because its a direct violation of privacy and individual rights but so many parents think that children, especially theirs, are beneath having rights. you know. cause children arent humans
But they are (most of the time) doing it to protect their kids. Someone should. And the Internet is very not safe.

ah yes, because i have exhibited such unsafe behavior on here and on Goodreads. I have spent all of my time sending nudes back and forth
flgshdbfkgj do you not fucking get it, Dominic? I don't get a space to actually be myself because i am so scared of them finding out and punishing me for daring to be anything other than a good little Christian girl

Um… Most of the time it's to keep children from viewing dissenting beliefs to the parents' own. I agree the Internet isn't safe, but neither is censorship to the point of indoctrination.

Point taken. I just read the article. It’s complicated. And I suppose I have to admit I don’t know the right answer.

Yeah. Like. It would be one thing if all they were doing was keeping me from viewing porn. Like. I wouldn't give a fuck about that. But when they're using it to control me to the extent they are, it's wrong
I understand wanting to make sure kids are safe online. but there comes a point in time when parents have to realize that their kids are growing up to be their own people and that monitoring them can become harmful. and there's also the issue of privacy. looking at everything their child looks at or posts or saves can turn into overbearing and extremely controlling, and that's harmful to a child's mental health because of the fact that, more often than not, said child has interests and views that differ from the parents, no matter the age
essentially: blocking sites that are known as harmful is alright, but monitoring and restricting everything is more harmful than good in the long run
it's like having a stalker, except it's someone you know and someone you can't stop
Also: my mom literally said "I should be allowed to read anything you publish online" like no??? I should be able to decide what I want you to read or not?? Otherwise it's just. Blatantly disrespecting my boundaries. Not that she gives a fuck about that

my mom did that with the short story I sent out to be published, and I was both terrified and pissed. I get you on that, and it fucking sucks
So apparently if I say the word 'beer' on my iPad it'll flag it and send a notification to my mom

And that's the exact reason I couldn't apply for the magazine, despite wanting to
