HM maybe the wrong community but it’s an important message anyway. Men’s mental health matters and if we all cared more about it, we’d have a lot less issues in the world.

I wanted to lay in a wooden box all day before it was cool
- Comment on US Border Patrol detained a nursing mother and separated her from her infant daughter to the point that she needed medical attention as a result of not being able to nurse 1 week ago:
I’m not religious and I don’t agree with the train of thought but I would think it’s probably something akin to “god sent these people to help me”

Food brings me joy and money brings me food, need nothing else in life.
- Comment on BlackRock is Suing UnitedHealth for Giving “Too Much Care” to Patients After the CEO was Murdered 1 week ago:
Historically, it has been violent unfortunately, and I don’t see that changing in this situation. Just hoping the violence is aimed at the right people soon before more innocent people die.

We need an overlay also of the amount of rips in jeans
- Comment on A 19-year old cis lesbian woman was beaten unconscious and robbed after she tried to use the women's restroom at a McDonald's in Carpentersville, Illinois 1 week ago:
The adjectives cis and lesbian refer to different attributes. Cis refers to gender identity, so her gender matches her sex assigned at birth (in this case, a woman assigned female at birth). A lesbian refers to her sexual attraction, so a woman who is attracted to other women.
- Comment on Besides money/capitalism, why are tech companies trying to push AI text generators over search engines? 1 week ago:
If that was the goal then maybe they should’ve worked harder so that their algo didn’t spit cheap poorly made garbage with a million fake reviews every time I try to search anything remotely purchasable.

Hey it’s nice to know the top results are educational/artistic and not just porn.

Jewel is a perfectly fine name on its own, wtf
- Comment on What's the worst spelling you've seen? 2 weeks ago:
I fully came in here with this name in mind. Lol in the 10 years since I’ve first heard it, I’ve never come across anyone else who has heard the same. I somehow hope we’re all running into the same Abcde and there aren’t just hordes of them out there.
- Comment on i broke 3 weeks ago:
Mine explained my emotional dysregulation patterns and helped me identify the triggers and how to address them.
By far, the most useful technique they shared with me was the TIPP skills technique, which helps me come down when I am having strong emotional reactions as a trauma response or from anxiety. Essentially:
- temperature - use cold temp to lower heart rate, warm to raise it
- intense exercise - helps manage overwhelming energy levels
- paced breathing - I’m not big on breathing but it works for some
- paired muscle relaxation - my favourite as it also interrupts thought patterns
Hope you’re able to access help though, obviously it is much better when personalized and you also get the safe space to release your fears and anxieties

That’s kind of better than continuing to charge you if he wasn’t vested in your improvement though.
- Comment on i broke 3 weeks ago:
Getting more involved with community movements has helped me in this respect 100x more than my therapist did.
It’s not their fault, there’s not that much they could’ve done for me anyway and they were very much on the same “were fucked this is all hopeless” boat as me.
- Comment on Life is unfair to landlords 3 weeks ago:
Where I live the majority of apartment rentals are owned by large corporations whose sole job is property management, including “renovicting” low income people and letting older buildings go to waste while hiking rent prices. These people are scumbags.
Previously I lived in one building that was actually just owned by one person who had purchased several buildings, and while he hadn’t built the apartments, at least he was also the sole caretaker so he was putting in the work.

This is probably the most disrespectful thing I’ve seen all week.
- Comment on If a gay man and lesbian woman have sex, is that gay or straight? 4 weeks ago:
You know it’s not a great question but it’s better to ask in a relatively safe environment than to make assumptions.
- Comment on Me when I zoom past traffic on my e-scooter 4 weeks ago:
My favourite thing to do is ‘race’ the person who offers me a ride home all the time. Like, I appreciate the offer but trust me, I will be home before you could get me there AND I’ll get to enjoy the sunshine.
- Comment on What is the evolutionary benefit of loving a pet so much you melt into a puddle when they are around? 4 weeks ago:
I know you’re right, but I actually think this one is an evolutionary benefit, just not ours. The cuteness traits won the evolutionary race because cuteness causes this feeling in humans that will make them more likely to get taken in by us.
(I don’t know shit about science, I just think pets have their shit figured out)
- Comment on The kerning on the pope’s tomb is a travesty 4 weeks ago:
To be fair, if you read the article or know about this Pope, you know he probably would not have given a shit (he wanted simple and probably wouldn’t have complained). It’s everyone else that is complaining.
- Comment on Venezuelan detainees at Texas center spell out SOS with their bodies 4 weeks ago:
Jokes on us (assuming you’re Venezuelan or any other kind of Latin American), crisis in Venezuela was sponsored by none other than the same country that’s detaining them now.

All LGBTQIA+ people are cool, but I draw the line at landlords. Enough is enough, goddamnit.

Okay but why does this look better than the actual thing though
- Comment on Smh being fired for police work 5 weeks ago:
Hey at least they fired the guy. How many US cops do you think have been accused of sexual harassment and not been fired? (It’s a lot, I bet)
