katniss in book 3: my childrens playground is built on dead bodies and bones, i never wanted children but peeta convinced me, i will never heal from what happened to me. the end
I’m at the doctor office and this baby keeps yelling “I want donow” (mcdonalds) and the big brother (I assume) said “all the mcdonalds burnt down, there’s no more mcdonalds”
my fatal flaw is that if i don’t want to do something i just won’t do it like mama raised a quitter for sure.. i’ll be doing something and suddenly be like damn what if i just didn’t 🤔. very freeing but also i suffer so many consequences
If you have a child and they are creeped out by a nephew or older brother touching them or looking at them a certain way, you need to have a serious talk with that person and keep them the hell away from your child. Don’t minimize it or tell your kid to hug them anyway, that kid is picking up danger signals they don’t even understand yet. But so many families will tell that kid they are being a brat.
thankyou
A quick note- this applies to female relatives as well. One of my aunts ignores my little brother’s requests not to hug or kiss him (he has aspergers and doesn’t like physical contact with people he is not very close with). I have repeatedly placed myself between the two of them and had to tell her to back off and stop trying to “desensitize” him. Whether or not there are “danger signals,” it is not okay for adults to invalidate a child or teen’s request for boundaries. We need to teach children now, when they are young, that they can say no to these things and that other people can too.
And this applies even if the relative isn’t giving bad vibes. Just in general teach your kids that they don’t have to have any physical contact for someone else’s sake if they don’t want to.
i love when rich people get insecure that people are only friends with them for the money bc unlike possibly every other similar form of anxiety, its usually true
when you’re watching a movie and u recognize one of the actors in it from somewhere but u haven’t watched any of the movies or shows listed on their imdb
“Top 10 Pranks That Went Too Far” compilation where #1 is Liu Bang founding the Han Dynasty
hold on i gotta Google something. Okay that’s funny
People are asking what this means, so:
Liu Bang was a provincial constable (basically a sheriff) in Classical China who one day was transporting some prisoners who escaped. The penalty for allowing prisoners to escape was death, so my man looked at his prospects and said “welp, in for a penny, in for a pound” and decided to go join up with the dudes who’d been his prisoners 5 minutes ago. This kicked off a chain of events that led to him becoming a bandit chief and eventually a rebel general and ended with him overthrowing the Qin dynasty and becoming Emperor Gaozu of Han.
