Realized she did it on purpose

As a kid, I always hated when my mom brushed my hair, it was always extremely painful, she'd yank chunks of hair out of my scalp, make my ears red and irritated, burn me with the dryer/iron

I used to think she just didn't know how to make it not hurt or was just clumsy, my hair was long and I was little...

But I recently let her do it again for a formal function as an adult, with my partner in the room. (Because I told him she was always rough with it)

And it didn't hurt... she put her hand up to protect my scalp, she didn't yank, or tug too hard, or burn me, or make me almost cry.

Which means she always knew. She could've always been gentle... she just chose to hurt me instead.

  • The only recurring dream I have anymore is an ever growing collection of dogs that are in various stages of neglect, some of which are family pets that have since passed away.

    I fucking hate it, there's never any food to feed them no matter how hard I look and there's almost always a fight or an escapee that I have to deal with only to be done with that and be missing (or gaining) even more dogs.

    I'm always in a panic when I wake up.

    I'd like to say that I have never neglected a dog, and only have one which I love very much, strangly, she is usually not present in the dog horde.

  • Nowhere is safe
  • The thing is, this COULD be great, people with physical impairments or just those who'd prefer to work this way could enjoy thier day without the stress of work.

    The problem is that it will 100% be used to extend your existing working hours, so that not a moment goes by your not generating revenue.

    Sigh...

  • I would say yes, then have a talk about safe sex.

    Because if you say no? They'll sneak off somewhere and do it anyway, in a much less safe manner, abd then you just have to hope to NOT hear about it because if you do it'll be a "I majorly fucked up" one.

    So yes. Say yes. Speaking as; somebody's girlfriend.

  • Ooooo lights
  • As a hunter, I can explain this.

    Deer cannot see color and actually have incredibly shit eyesight in comparison to something like a turkey or a coyote. They rely mostly on scent and hearing to decide what to do.

    They freeze because the light completely blinds them, the car has no natural smell, and all they hear is the same roaring they've been hearing the past hour getting slightly louder.

    Like a frog in a boiling pot situation, it's fine until it's suddenly not and then they can't see-
