I like Mildred. Such a shame that names go 'out of date'.
I think names would actually be more meaningful if people picked their own.
I remember as a kid in my area this game was called Toilets.
If you got caught you were a toilet and had to stand with your arm out until someone pushed on it and said 'flush.'
I miss the toilet game haha
I liked it at 11. Used to annoy teachers doodling eagles and owls on absolutely everything.
What species is this mohawked cutie pie?
Birds are awesome. Loved them even as a kid when it was hopelessly uncool.
I don't look for things to be either angry or grateful about I just get on with life. I respect that gratitude works for you. Personally I find forcing gratitude just drains me. I find I do best just accepting that sometimes I'm angry or stressed and that those are signs telling me something.
I'm a nihilist. I wasn't thinking of God.
IDK. I respect that gratitude works for others. I personally am not a fan because I feel we have the normal range of emotions for a good reason.
For example: Anger motivates us to leave an exploitative job or an abusive relationship. Gratitude might very well keep someone in that relationship or in a job where they end up herniating a disk...because instead of being angry enough to leave they tell themselves 'I'm so lucky! Other people have it worse!'
^probably this.
Millennial not boomer.
I think it's simply more a placeholder term for something people haven't found out enough about yet.
...how on one hand there's a male loneliness epidemic and women are partly to blame because we're so picky - and yet on the other hand things like this.
How can we both be desperately needed for your emotional health but also be huge annoying burdens? I don't get it.
I like that though
