Omg, I heard when my grandma found out my mom was bisexual, she said "Don't you think I've had those thoughts too? You're supposed to resist it!" So she basically confirmed we have 3 generations of bisexuals in our family line.
I know a family that has lesbian grandmas, mothers, and daughter. I graduated with the daughter, and afterwords went out to eat and saw them all sitting together, and it was amazing and beautiful! What a cool fucking family! So much respect. It’s not something you see you every day!
VancePants In my religion islam loving both genders is normal that god palnted both genders in our heart he said that in the quran but god also said that we just need to love to opposite sex nothing else it's a test so what your grandma said is rlateble to my religion i wish you happiness ❤️

Whenever someone talks about anything related to the lgbtq community the first thing in my mind is your Swedish voice saying "The gaia agenda". Thank you.
I'm actually pretty right wing but got exhausted from getting associated with idiots all the time. The queer alphabet political movement doesn't represent the gay population. The gay population is not a unified collective. I don't admire or respect those people who keep adding letters and symbols to LGBTQ, like now what is it? LGBTQ2SA+? As an asexual I associate with heterosexual people, why am I getting claimed as "queer"? I like girls better, I just don't behave in a heteronormative way about it. (ie. prefer porn to real life)
That is so stupid, besides them not having any mark I wouldn't be able to a see a general and know they're one, we don't learn to read their costumes. Besides of course all the section of the population that doesn't respect the agressive military of the US.

I work at starbucks. I had a customer named Frank who would always misgender me whenever i had to talk to him. one day after ordering from me at the register and calling me "sir" all throughout, he went over to the opposite side of the store and started chatting with the other baristas saying things like "oh so this is where the *real* women are." That kinda crap (Basically talking shit about me to my coworkers) all of them got uncomfortable. My friend Brittany told him thats really offensive and he needs to stop. To which the Frabk replied: "ya well i dont believe in that transgender bs. Back in my country, we execute people like that. . Brittany is a fiery woman with a heart of gold. She started chewing his ass out. Yelling at him about what a horrible asshole he is for acting like that okay. So old man Frank, absolutely stunned that hes being yelled at by a 25 year old barista demands to talk to the manager. And Brittanys like, "ya. Let me get him. Im sure hed love to hear this" My manager comes out and asks whats going on. Frank tells him. And my manager listens very politely. And then says "Thank you for sharing that with me. Let me get some of your information so i can write a report about this incident. (Gets his full name and phone number) okay and now Im gonna need you to get out of my store." "But why? She yelled at me. Im a custome-..." "I dont care Frank. get out. Youre banned. I have your information and if i see you in here again im calling the police for trespassing." 😂 I cant describe how good it felt to never have to see that horrible man-karen again.
I'm sorry that you were subjected to that kind of treatment. When did people forget the first rule you're taught when meeting new people? If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.
@ErisApplebottom When, in fact, HE'S not a person. He might be "human", but he is definitely not a civilized individual. Again, I am so sorry for what you go through. My son is pan and is off and on dating a trans woman, and I truly try to be as accepting of EVERYONE as I can. I grew up in a severely homophobic environment and I felt first hand how being different could be dangerous.
The whole “how many of these crazy homophobes are closet bi’s” thing is something i’ve personally experienced. My boyfriend’s mom is crazy homophobic after she was in a long term relationship with a woman and when she got her heart broken it sent her into a wild homophobic rhetoric because she “chooses to not pursue/indulge her homosexual feelings” she is literally bisexual but is a insane conspiracy theorist right wing christian and is super proud that she just doesnt engage in her “impure thoughts” 😬😬😬 so youre not far off
Probably a lot of the non-crazy sometimes embarrassing to know but not quite homophobes as well. Yes, I'm talking about (some of your) parents and grandparents. I'm talking about my dad, anyway. He's like, "Oh, every TV program has to have a gay couple now" and has repeatedly explained (despite how much I don't want to know :P ) how when he was young he was attracted to men but resisted their 'gay pressure' to become heterosexual and is still somewhat convinced that people can be influenced into 'the gayness'. I really want to say "OR, maybe you're just bisexual and ended up in a monogamous heterosexual relationship".
Click is absolutely onto something here! I fully believed being Gay was a choice, and I languished under the "bi-curious" label for years. Finally I came out as openly Bisexual and realized that I couldn't ever choose not to be Bi, it was just who I was. It was who I had secretly always been. That was the moment it clicked for me.
yeah sounds like she had a mental break from the breakup and her internalized homophobia kind of exploded out and her fragile mental state made her prime for getting roped in by alt-right BS. (bcs conspiracy bs and christian nuttery is as much a part of alt-right now as the T in LGBTQ+) I mean demonizing your ex is a common thing ppl do to make themselves feel better so imagine the appeal of an entire ass movement ready and willing to do the same thing and hail you as a victim, as strong, and the good superior person. That's extremely appealing for ppl in a bad, insecure and vulnerable mental state (most of this applies overall really, not just these specific circumstances)
"I don't like the term caregiver bcs it doesn't include me! I'm not a caregiver, I'm a parent" aka I don't give care, and my ego can't take being titled caregiver bcs it doesn't imply that I own my child enough, which I think I do just bcs I gave birth to it
I find this especially confusing, since in my school whenever something is announced they always go "parents and caretakers/caregivers of our students"-how is that a big deal?? How entitled do you have to be to get so offended by a more inclusive word that includes YOU
Jepp. These are the kind of people who will euthanise their pup when it snaps at the kid after it has tried to walk away or sleep x-amounts of time without being left alone. Because of course it is "aggressive" if it does so. I've actually heard about a couple who did so with 3 labradors (again; for "aggression") because if the kid wanted to play with it, the pup had to do so. They shouldn't be allowed to buy a pet at all. Plushies or tamagochi better be all they get.
My boss used to wave goodbye and say "Ok, see you soon" to anyone who said we lost a customer or they were never coming back. We usually saw them again a week or two later. She would also sit on the phone with angry customers for upwards of 10 to 20 minutes until she could get a word in and would just let them know that no matter how angry they are she's still getting paid and doesnt care. Anytime a customer would be ranting or raving she would just put the phone down and let them rant while she went onto her phone. She took nothing from rude people
"I'm never coming back!" That was the same empty threat given by one woman who came through on a weekly basis, complaining how her food last week was wrong. Like, if it's wrong, why come back? Multiple times??
We need to start up a, "Rude customers are *_never_*_ right_ movement. Rude customers cost businesses money due to the employee turnover they create. I'm all for a ban-list for repeat-rude customers. There needs to be consequences for this utterly sociopathic entitled behavior.
As someone who was in the foster system as a kid, I was always really grateful for little things like "caregiver", "custodian", etc. on forms, rather than just "parent". Even better when they don't require you to specify, you just fill out the name. Inclusive language is so important.
Although I think a lot of foster-parents would LOVE to be able to be considered just "parent" as well=) But yes. I agree. It doesn't hurt anyone, and it's considerate for those who might not have someone they can call "parent" to write down.

I’ve always hated people for judging moms who got a c-section. My mom got a c-section for all 4 of her children, myself included, because the doctors literally couldn’t get the baby to come out the normal way. Not only is there nothing wrong with getting a c-section, but it’s not always a choice either.
My MIL would have died in childbirth along with her only child (my husband) if she hadn’t gotten a C-section. It’s a LIFE-SAVING PROCEDURE. That attitude is also dismissive of adoptive parents. Biology is not the only way to make a family.
my mom has a disease she inherited from her dad. because of it, my brother is the only child she gave birth to and he was born 2 months early with a lot of medical issues (doctors didn’t think he’s live past a few weeks). me and my sister had to be c-sections. if my mother refused to get one, i wouldn’t be alive. she is also the best mother i could have asked for. she would do anything for us and she loves us. people trying to claim that getting a c-section means you aren’t a real mother makes me so angry i feel sick. she went through too much pain and suffering for someone to say that.
I had a cousin who was born with an overdeveloped cranium. He literally would not come out normally, so he was c-sectioned. His younger siblings were better proportioned, but because my aunt c-sectioned once, her body wouldn't pass her others normally because she didn't pass her first one normally. She is still a real mother, despite her 3 c-sections. Stfu, Karen.
Until I herd it in a recent video I've never heard of that, just isn't a thing where I'm from, and where I'm from is very Conservative, but never have I heard someone critiquing a women for having a c section, I honestly don't even get why, is it cuz she didn't go through the pain, why on earth would that matter?
@@aleksabanjevic8316 yes it is. They didn’t have those few minutes of actually pushing the child through the birth canal, so the months of gestation and hours or DAYS of labor before the C-section was deemed necessary don’t count! Also everyone knows postpartum recovery with all the “regular” physical bs while caring for a newborn is only made easier by also recovering from an abdominal surgery! It’s solely a way to make yourself feel superior to someone for something they had little to no control over (per NIH, only 10% of C-sections are truly elective).
"Caregiver" (if not related, such as aunt, uncle & grandparents) is a term used for those whose parents are either unable to take care of the child due to reasons OR the parents are deceased. Such is done for a child in the care system, Karen, now, just because you gave birth to your snot gremlin, doesnt make you a "parent", that is a title you must earn too, by raising your snot gremlin properly & not to be a mini Karen like yourself.
Kind of gives off the same energy as people who conveniently forget that some people have gender neutral names or anonymous identities online when they complain about pronouns.
A lot of us have been using these words due to adoption and foster care. We're happy to normalize these terms. Please, take them. Please make them normal. Use them. Those of us in "non normal" families would ADORE that they get forced into the lexicon of these god-fearing all white folks and make them realize that families are made of all types. Please. Make them as uncomfortable as I was made to be IN THE 90s just because I was adopted. By a straight couple. Who were white. We didn't even look dissimilar. But that still drove Karens FREAKIN WILD. They despise what they do not understand. Force the Karens to learn for the love of god.
I think in Germany that is already normalized since as far as I can remember back there was always the word "Erziehungsberechtigter" which is kind of hard to translate, but "Caregiver" would probably the best one. Word for word it would be something like "authorized for upbringing" so it is very generalized. And that was already on about all the forms I had to bring to my parents when I was a child and that was back in the 80s.
@@Valfara770 exactly, this is because in Germany all thos paperwork is highly formalized, and a person that is not legally authorized as "Erziehungsberechtigter" is not even allowed to sign these. This is because in many cases the "Erziehungsberechtigter" is not a parent, but some other relative, or just one parent is, but the other is not. And this has been the case for quite some time, especcially after WW2 a lot of children were not in custody of their parents, but of a relative that happened to survive, and children of underage mothers are often given into the legal custody of the parents of the minor until they are old enough to take on the duty themselves.

My bf told me a story that happened when he worked at gamestop. He had a GM that was a 5'3 latina woman, and she wouldn't always wear her name tag that had her title on it. Naturally, there are plenty of guys that are pretty misogynistic and gate-keepy when it comes to games or anything nerdy. One day while bf was on shift, GM was dealing with a customer who would do nothing but deny or refute anything she said, especially if he was asking questions about something. Dude was getting fed up and demanded to speak with her manager, as she didn't have her name tag on. She smiled, said "ok", dropped down behind the counter out of sight and popped back up with her GM nametag and said "how can I help you". Bf had to go to the storage area bc he couldn't breathe after seeing the guy's face.
When I worked in a call center for tech support, we had an irate, misogynistic customer call in. He got a female agent, and demanded her supervisor because "girls don't know computers". So, she escalated to her supervisor...another woman. Again he demanded her manager, he refused to talk to women. So again he was escalated...to the manager, who was another woman. The man was full ranting mad, and demanded "the man in charge." So I, walking back from the break room, was flagged over. (At the time I was one of the "supervisors" who took escalations.) He was happy he could finally talk to The Man of the call center. So I, being the nice person that I am not, decided to troll the heck out of him. Every time we did a step of trouble shooting, I would put him on hold for 30 seconds to a minute, and then come back and we'd do the next step. This continued for a few minutes until he exploded in anger again and demanded to know why I kept putting him on hold. I told him, "Sir, you have talked to the tech, and refused their help. You talked to their supervisors and managers, and refused their help, demanding me. I manage this site, I'm not one of the people trained in this. I'm putting you on hold to ask her what to do next." (This was, of course, me talking out of my arse.) He was furious about this, but we resumed troubleshooting. As memory serves, all told, it was an over 1 hour long call, for a problem that would have taken 5-10 minutes for the original agent to fix.
I once worked as a tech support in a big game company for a few months. There was this one time my female coworker expressed how one of her clients kept refusing to let her assist him because “a girl wouldn’t be able to fix a man’s problem” Since we have certain requirements to follow in order to be able to escalate a case to agents in higher tiers, she was stuck trying to convince him to accept her help. She said she was gonna leave the ticket opened and let the system kick it back to other male agents in the team once she got off. But I had an idea and told her, “Y’know what? Send it to my queue, pretend that the system did that on its own. I gotcha” (A little bit of context though, I have an Asian name that’s totally unisex, even people who know my language still wouldn’t have guessed my gender.) So, I got the ticket and introduced myself, telling him how I will be assisting him instead of my colleague since her shift had already ended. I managed to fix his simple problem with one try and when he came back to confirm that the issue was resolved, he ended with “Thanks! This is why a girl shouldn’t do a man’s job.” I saw my opportunity and replied with “You are more than welcome! Thank you for letting this girl helping you out. Have a great day!” Then I closed his ticket, anticipating my team lead to pull me aside the next day but apparently the client never reopened that ticket so I was good. lmao
When I came out, there were so many people in my family who said sus things. My parents told me something like "its normal to be confused about that when you are young and to want to experiment" and then implied that they had both "experimented" as teens... My dad understands that being gay is not a choice, but he has told me that acting on those feelings and living a gay lifestyle IS a choice, and that you can just choose not to. Then my grandma gave me a whole speech about how every woman perfers the company of other women but you just gotta be with a man beacuse thats how things are... Ever since then I think most of my family members might not be so straight after all XD
Your dad isn't wrong on that one. You don't choose your sexual orientation, but outing yourself and trying to live by it is indeed a choice. More orten than not, a hard choice. Doesn't mean that choosing to live true to yourself is wrong. On that part, your family is wrong... they may think of your wellbeing knowing life is more difficult when you own up to your queerness, but heh. The world ain't gonna be better if people keep choosing the closet.
The Starbucks employee refusing to reheat the Karen's sandwich is just doing her job, protecting her workplace from stupid Karens who don't know food safety. (Yes, they aren't allowed to reheat foods, because if the Karen gets sick...)
Or if the Karen is sick and infects the food in some shape or form then that has potential to cause more health violation. I just can't believe the stupidity and I used to work in a kitchen and a deli.
"What? This restaurant won't reheat my food that I got from somewhere else? I am a customer, and I have the right to treat this place like my own house!"
As I listened to that woman listing the requirements for her new puppy, I began to feel very sorry for the kid. As the list of requirements continued, I realised I should be feeling sorry for people the kid would interact with when she matures. Then I remembered that the mother doesn't "believe in" vaccines and realised that it probably won't be an issue.

A passenger who had seen enough to be fully aware of what was going on decided complain because "we didn't give her service with a smile..."

People are so cold, I can't believe it. When I was a teenager, I got stuck on a bus/tramlane because in the bus in front of us, someone had a heart attack or something alike. We watched them trying to save the person. We were in the tram so we couldn't move past the parked bus. After a while, they let us out and we had to walk to a bus stop not on the designated buslane so we could continue from there and another passenger was complaining about how bad things always happened to them and how could they be so unlucky.
fun fact I came out to my parents and they said I need to ignore the homosexual feelings, and my mom told me that she felt the same "feelings" but she ignored them and married my dad, so yeah the bi thing is true lmao
On that note, i remember having a conversation with my mom about wanting to kiss girls(my dumb closeted ass) she told me that everyone had thoughts like that even her. she even told me that there was a time that she was crushing on a girl she knew. But she told me she prayed it away and married my dad..... Fast forward to now and they're getting a divorce. I get the feeling the next couple of years will be interesting.

When I told my mom some time ago, I have a girlfriend, she told me it's OK even though it's a sin. She said that it will pass anyway cause she had feelings for girls when she were young and it went away as well. That all teens have feelings for the same gender at some point. Since then she has changed. she is more open minded now and doesn't see homosexuality as a sin. I Love her

Yeah, okay lady. We shall shed a tear for not getting your $11.
Had a customer say this to me the other day, after I told her we don’t accept cash and only do cards.

33:50 can confirm, my dads girlfriend who didn't accept my orientation (asexual) belived it wasn't real and that sexuality was a choice because she was intrested in both men and woman and "tried both then realsied I liked men better" therefore she belives this confirms the idea that queer people are confused and should try the opposite gender and they'll chnage thier mind. She would not listen to me when I tried to explain that this was infact, not a normal heterosexual experience.
If I had a nickel for every time I've had to explain that I'm asexual, "no, I'm not just saying that... / no, I'm not a frigid bitch you incel / no, I won't change my mind if I have more dick," etc. I would have waaaay more than 2 nickels. -_-

My cousin's son was exclusively taken care for by my other cousin, his aunt, because of complex medical reasons, at to this day she's still taking care of him, if only partially. My aunt, a cis straight woman, is his CAREGIVER. She has worked harder to be a de facto parent than this rotten excuse of a woman.
Yes caregivers are literally the best, they really deserve they world for the shit they do (regardless of gender). My grandma has raised me most my life and I would kill god and traverse hell for her.
If she's really screening breeders with that trainwreck of a message, she'd get no rely. The best she'd get would be a puppy mill dog. And that's... yikes!
That person should just go find a robot dog in the toy aisle at Target. That's the only way they're ever going to have their dream pet. A living puppy that's only 10 WEEKS OLD would never be able to fit all of those standards.
It's nuts. How is a 2 month old puppy supposed to get housebroken, obedience trained, plus everything else? I shudder to think how they raise their "perfect" toddler.
The reason they put 'caregiver' instead of 'parent' on those forms is because people like Karen end up in jail (likely for attacking a minimum wage worker) and their kids end up growing up without parents.
The caregiver thing is more inclusive, a child might be under the care of a family relative or even an older sibling over the age of 18 or a grandparent, which does indeed happen in quite a few circumstances. Caregivers should be given more respect in society (as long as they are giving the child proper care and love) seeing as they take on responsibilities that the parents either can't due to stuff out of their control (which is valid and can't be helped) or won't (AKA: "parents" who do not deserve such a title).
It's a Karen, she wants her rights to cancel others, and she thinks that's the only way it works, so when someone else wants rights she fears it will overwrite hers
You're absolutely correct. I have a relative who is in an in-home therapist for families in distress. So many of the kids have been placed with grandparents/other relatives because the actual parents are addicts or in prison or just dropped off the kid/kids one day and left, etc. The majority of their clients are grandparents that have been left to raise a toddler or very young child. Most of the cases there's more than one child involved too.
As someone who was brought up in a very religious home, and also attended parochial school until middle school, anything LGBTQ is never spoken of. I knew a few things, but was horribly sheltered with no real information about it. Growing up I did have an attraction to boys, but I found I had an even stronger attraction to girls. Understandably, I was so confused. Fast-forward many, many years later, and as an adult I had realized I am bisexual (as well as demisexual). The amount of internalized hatred I had absorbed from the community, school, etc, took years to get over. I grew up never hating those in the LGBTQ, but I did hate myself. The damage is very real, and very toxic. I didn't allow myself to see who I really was for far too long. Don't let others tell you how to view yourself, and find safe spaces to talk. I didn't have that luxury, but I feel there is more available now. Please be safe, and know you are perfect the way you are.
Did my future self write this!? This is almost exactly what happened to me! I realize now that I'm asexual but I was so confused growing up. I still struggle with internal homophobia years later.
Despite having googled things online, and listened to podcasts, and read some articles, I still don’t know the difference between bisexual, pansexual and demisexual. @Liane Jaeger if you don’t mind clarifying the difference and I hope I’m not being intrusive or rude, being bisexual and demisexual - what exactly does this mean?
@@thekingwhostitches No worries, I'm happy to explain. ☺️ Demisexual basically means it's a secondary attraction, and there is no sexual attraction until there is an emotional bond or connection. So basically I need to not only get to know the person, but I need to connect to them on a deeper level to feel any intimate connection. I'm sure it can vary a bit for each person, too. Bisexuality is often defined as being sexually or romantically attracted to both males and females, and can include other genders. Bisexuality is sometimes an umbreIlla term and can include pansexuality. In that case, it's more of a "hearts not parts" attraction, so it includes any gender and attraction to any gender. That being said, it can differ slightly for each person. Being bisexual, I'm attracted to both males and females in both a romantic and sexual way. For me, I find I may have some pansexual leanings because I also include non-binary and transgender people. A lot of times bisexuals will be attracted to cisgender males and females, but that doesn't necessarily mean they would not include other genders. I'm hoping this explains it better? 😁😁

On top of that they wanted at least two weeks trial period to see if the puppy bonds with the daughter, as that apparently isn't possible after they turn ten weeks old. But then they just return them. Luckily there's no science behind this kind of bonding anyways, so poor survivor pups will still be happy in their new and better homes. Hopefully not being kissed or stroked against their will either. I really, really, really wish this is just trolling!
I used to work for a vet who was very forthright with shitty animal owners, and he would have used his favourite phrase on that Karen: "It's not a dog you should have; it's a f**king doll."
Seeing Karens saying "It is a sin to love someone the same sex." or "I hope God punishes you for this." makes me really sad. They are spilling so much venom, while thinking that a guy, who literally said "The most important commandment - answered Jesus - is this: ‘ Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself." (Mark 12 29 - 31) will pet them on the back. So, to everyone who read this comment, I send you many hugs and wish you'll get a lot of them in the days to come.
Thank you and I wish you well too! Personally I'm not religious, but I have a HUGE respect for religious people who can actually understand the point of their religion and not just use it to justify hate. We need more people like you. Much love from Hungary!
@@brialapoint2608 I'm not preaching, I'm pointing out the hypocrisy (yes, I'm aware that it's very apparent, but I wanted to express my anger). I don't know, what is happening in the south US, but I also live in a very conservative country and don't enjoy seeing the church burn books or shit talk about the LGBTQ.
33:39 My parents are actually like this, they’re mormon and believe that if you are gay you just have to not pursue any relationship, and that most bisexual people were actually just attracted to the opposite gender as a kid then “grew out of it” like they did. Charming amiright 🥰
Yeah, because it's so easy just not to follow that longing for love and you can absolutely live a happy and fulfilled life without it! 🙃 The catholic church also thinks that it was a good compromise to say god accepts that homosexual "tendencies" exist and doesn't judge people for having them, but living them is a sin! Well thanks, how graceful of you. So I'm allowed to exist, but I shall always be alone with an aching heart?! Just burn me on a stake then, not much of a difference to me! That was one of the reasons why I left the church and am never coming back (the other being how they covered up (and still do) the kiddy-diddlers among them). They were basically telling me god made me [this way] to suffer in a world where I can't follow my heart, and then wonder why I want nothing to do with them and refuse to praise their god! 🤣 I had lost faith in an all-seeing, allmighty god who's good-willed and helping me long ago anyways...
I can’t imagine having to suppress attraction and love for someone in my entire life, just because that was “the right thing to do.” Sounds like a life of heartbreak, dreams unrealized. Sad.
As someone who has owned a Frenchie as well as many other dogs, a few extra special things about that lady's post: Obedience training really isn't done until after a dog is spayed/neutured, so at least 8 months. You will not find a Frenchie without allergies. Due to their breeding history, you'd be lucky to find one that could even eat a commercial dog food. In the US (and c'mon, that lady must be American), it is illegal for a veterinarian to treat a dog who is unvaccinated for rabies. If the woman is that antivax, her dog will never be able to access any form of veterinary care. Most puppies from registered breeders will have already had their rabies vaccines by the time they are given to the new owners. Puppies will nip and growl as a form of play. Even if this child is being the perfect angel and is completely respectful of the dog's boundaries (and let's be honest, she's TWO, that's unrealistic), her dogs might have been trying to play and bond with her. Puppies don't come housebroken if they're less than ten weeks old. Not a thing. Like Clicky said, this pair wants a tamagotchi, not a living breathing animal. People like that shouldn't be pet owners. It's infuriating to me when people act like dogs are just there for the entertainment of people. There's a difference between thinking that your dog is adorable, taking photos, dressing them up, etc., and viewing them as your plaything without a mind of their own.
I was about to say something like this. I don’t have experience with Frenchies but much bigger breeds (GSD & Lab) and this lady’s “requests” are beyond unreasonable.
Isn't it also that puppies aren't given to their new owners until they're at least 12 weeks old? It is definetely done with cats here in Germany (I think dogs too, but I got my last dog 21 years ago, so I'm not exactly up to date), because separating them too soon from their parents and siblings can result in some serious emotional and mental issues. And I experienced it first hand, my parents in law's cat was separated too early and she can't cope with receiving love. She rubs up to your legs and meows, begging for attention but as soon as you give her attention, she gets confused and aggressive and she will attack you with teeth and claws. And I tried, but no amount of work I put into that animal ever changed anything.
@@midnight8341 In the US, the standard for puppies is 8-10 weeks, though it can sometimes be 6-12. I don't know about cats, since I've always adopted them.
That's what I was thinking. I don't know much about dogs but expecting a puppy to have completed obedience training at 6-10 weeks old feels slightly unrealistic
It's a very bad idea to wait that long before starting obedience training. Basic obedience should be started from day 1, its how you establish boundaries with your dog and trust me. Waiting that long will make one hell of a dog to be aroubd. Dogs shouldn't be fixed until at minimum of 2 years old as well, they NEED those hormones until that age as that is when they truly stop growing. Some breeds don't stop growing or maturing until 3+ years old! A breed I am looking at the breeder I want to work with won't let her puppies be fixed until a minimum of 4 years old. Since their BODIES may stop maturing at 2 their brains don't stop maturing until 3 at the earliest and those hormones are essential for the mental health of the developing dog.
Very first one gave me flashbacks of a similar experience, but it turned out very differently. I had loaned a studio ghibli movie to my sister for her grandkids to watch. A few days later she handed me back a fresh, unopened copy of the same movie. She said the kids wanted to watch it again but accidentally broke the disk trying to get it out. Her kids broke my movie and instead of informing me about it she bought me a replacement. She did tell me what happened after handing me the new copy tho. That's what you're supposed to do. Your kids are your responsibility, borrowed property is also your responsibility. If your kids break borrowed property it is your responsibility to replace it.
About the animal issue. It was 1991. Moma was working as a care-taker who had a 4 yrs old granddaughter. That woman thought it would be a good idea to get her 4 yr old a kitten. This toddler was constantly squeezing the kitten, hitting the kitten because it was to hissing at her, caring the poor kitten by the tail. She also kept the kitten in a rusty cage & she was just too scared to use the litter box....She just stayed curled up in a corner like a frightened child. Then the kitten starting walking funny & had started vomiting up blood. The old lady told moma that she was going to have to get someone to shoot it because she didn't have the money to take it to the vet to put it down humanely. So, my moma, my sister & me devised a plan to "rescue" this poor kitten. While the granddaughter was in Pre-K & while moma was talking the old lady to Wal-Mart - my sister & I "kidnapped" the poor kitten. She was so weak & frail the she merely whimpered & couldn't even fight us off. I wrapped her in a towel & we floored it to the vet. The vet said we may have been too little to late & pretty much said "She doesn't have much longer, maybe a week if lucky." We wasn't ready to give up. We left the cage open so moma could use the line "The kitty probably broke out to die in peace. Cats do that if they are very sick." The lady believed the story. We named the little kitty K.C. since we didn't expect it to make a comeback....3 days later, she was sowing AMAZING recovery. We took her to another vet. She had tail fractures, a cracked rib, had a skin infection on her back paws, an eye infection, & was fed food that cats can't normally digest. The new vet said that they would like to keep her for 3 days to get her digestive system on track, take care of all the fractures & infections at a discounted rate. If the cat died, she would not charge one penny, but if she lived, she would help us get evidence of the abuse so we could press charges. By a miracle, the kitty not only surviving, but thriving...Complete 180. We did file chrages, but back then Texas didn't have any decent pet abuse laws in the books. The "law" said see was "too old" to go to jail. ( She was in her 70's) & the granddaughter was too young to face court. The didn't fine either since she was "on fixed income" All she basically had to do is sign over the kitten to us & was not allowed to ever have another pet in the state of Texas. K. C. When we told the vet what the court did, we didn't even have to pay a bill. The vet said her survival was payment enough. We renamed K.C. to Kaci & she lived like a pretty, spoiled kitty cat should - with an abundance of love & affection - & she lived to the ripe old age of 12.
This is a bittersweet story. I am glad Kaci survived her abuse! My grand-parents never neutered their female cat, so she often had babies. They chose to throw the baby cats against the window to kill them than give them away to people. I never understood why they did that, znd why so violently. (I never saw that myself thank fook.)
@@asilnorahc8910 Ok what the absolute heavens and lords is wrong with your grandparents?! You know what lad they aren't even your grandparents anymore. I hope they're deceased because those demented old hags do not deserve to live another year if they're doing such revolting, cruel things to little kittens. I'm also glad you didn't have to witness such cruelty either when they did that. Just reading what they did to those poor kittens disturb me. That one part of humanity (the cruel, revolting, and demented) is what always makes me doubt that humanity could ever have another generation that would actually be decent. I'm saying this as a teen in Gen Z, who generally regrets that their very own generation can be somewhat as shitty as the other past generations. Although, there are some good people in Gen Z who aren't all that bad I suppose, just not really sure who to name as a good example. Anyways to end this comment; I hope your other family members/relatives aren't as trash as your grandparents are with animals. Have a good day/night fellow stranger. :] 👋
We live next to a married couple who are a Karen and a Chad. In the first year of living here they called the town on us nine times. They actually had the town official come out to measure how high our dandelions were in our backyard. There is a huge hedge between us so they had to push through the foliage to even see our weeds. The town finally stopped taking their complaints when they faked a town notice about all the things the town wouldn’t look into. Sigh. They are everywhere!
Same fam... The power tripping controlling entitlement of these couples is insane... Dude just because you need everything in your life to be micromanaged within an inch of it's life is not how I run my world... You miserable goblins please look in the mirror work on yourselves and get your peering eyes away from our fence!! 😝
YES I am all for the "theory" that people that believe being gay is a choice are just confused/closeted bisexuals! It makes so much sense. I talked to my twin about it recently actually and we both agreed and had a laugh about it.
Makes sense. I know someone who tells that being gay is a choice bcz "they've felt attracted to woman and weren't lesbian." I mean, I am bi, and demisexual. This "straight" person probably feels more attraction to woman than I do!
"but what about those ex gay people?" well, considering most of them have... ~relapsed~ and basically disavowed the movement... but I prefer one thing I've said to people FOR YEARS to explain the idea of "gay" men who do "go straight" THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "LIKING MEN" AND "LIKING IT IN THE BUTT"
That last one just makes me think of that Fairly Odd Parents skit where Timmy's parents kept saying "I'm respecting your right to privacy by knocking but asserting my authority as your parent by coming in anyway!" in really cheery voices then would just smash through the door with a battering ram. I still quote it to myself all the time lol (psa: knock and wait to be called in unless your child is like four and more likely to be constantly choking to death on something than older kids)
I am Christian but I support lgbtq+ I am also asexual and have not come out yet but now I am scared to do so. So now only the internet knows. It's always sad to know that it's Karens like these that represent us 🥲
(Editor Flame here- this came out much more preachy than I'd intended, but I don't know how to fix it without probably making it worse/really odd-sounding. With that in mind, please read on with the benefit of the doubt. Either way thank you for reading this far, and I hope you're having a good day/night. 😊) I get that feeling, my friend. I used to be all kinds of -phobic, though for me it was coming solely from a place of misunderstanding. Then I happened to watch a video about asexuality, had a "Oh sh$1" (pardon my french) moment, and slowly but steadily came to the realization that everybody deserves respect, regardless of whether or not I agreed with them on anything, or whether I could relate to them on some level. Two years later, I'm in a much better place (mentally and physically), while my family tries their best to be compassionate and mindful of my own identity and the identities/experiences of others. I'm not saying they've got it all down pat- me coming out as transmasc last year is a big adjustment for them, though they're not being cruel about it or anything -but they've changed to become better people, once they realized that being -phobic (even out of ignorance) is extremely hurtful to those it takes a poo on. All that to say, I don't know your situation, and your relationship with those currently in your life can- honestly most likely *does* -vary from mine. But, if God is nudging you to tell somebody IRL, and you know they wouldn't/can't bring your life crashing down, it's not always a stupid idea to act on it. Also, It's best to prioritize safety first, and to not spin yourself in mental knots when avoidable, all that good stuff- keeping in mind that stuffing a core part of yourself away where nobody will see it tends to end unpleasantly. When all is said and done, the worst thing to do is to innately assume you're alone in your experiences, no matter what said experiences entail. If anything comes out clearly in this long-winded train wreck of a reply, I hope that part does. (Also if you would like any strategies for explaining asexuality to Christians, I've got some gold to pass on if you'd like. Also a couple really good books with well-done rep, though that might be harder to hide all things considered. Hope you have/had a good day, may your tomorrows always be better than your yesterdays, and God Bless.)
Hey, we're all here to support you. Ik it's been a while since you wrote this but I really wanna say that. I hope your situation got better in the past 7 months also! Hope you're doing alright!
I may be quite late and I don't know if you already came out, but just wanted to say that we support you. Wishing you - and everyone struggling with similar problems - all the best!
ok but I love how “sex before marriage is a sin” or sum but asexuals have to be “fixed” and are verbally abused in homophobic Christian households (and non-Christian households just specifying Christian because sex before marriage is a sin in Christianity)
If that kid had destroyed the family's 85" TV, I bet that mom would have tried to get the money from the babysitter because she hadn't supervised the little angel properly...
As someone who is asexual, the idea that attraction would be a choice is crazy to me. I can’t choose to be attracted to anyone because I’m just not. So how could someone who is not attracted to a particular gender choose to change that. It’s silly to think that. I agree they’re probably bi lol
Yeah, but many act Like IT, the amount of Ace people that Just think ITS going through the motions for everyone IS redicioulus. There IS a humorous overlap between bi/Pan and Ace people in, If WE are equally (Not) attraackted to both sexes WE can Chose WHO WE (pretend to BE) are into
i used to get so angry when hearing things about the “gay agenda”. i’ve learned how to manage that, but i still get a feeling of melancholy whenever the topic arises.
7:30 in a school where I studied for years one year suddenly the forms changed from "parents" to "caregivers". Since it was the 90s and this "they are trying the erase the cishet" BS hadn't really taken over and it was a small school where everyone knew everyone, no one thought much of it. But a few weeks after the school year started we found out that a boy that was new in my class had lost both of his parents in an accident and was being raised by his aunt and uncle and the school had the sensibility to realise that putting "parents", "mom" and "dad" everywhere and not include other caregivers on school things (like mothers day and fathers day) would be really hurtful for that boy that had lost his parents and for the people that were taking care of him and had also lost part of their family over that. And after that, in every other school I went to and didn't have "caregivers" included I would tell them this story and ask them to add that, just in case one of their students needed that.
I feel so bad for any puppy that family touched. It sounds like they want a perfect toy that would get ignored and locked in a cage most of the time. I knew of one family with white carpets that kept their new puppy locked up most of the time so it wouldn't mess up their perfect house :( they then complained when it chewed things up and had way to much energy.
If you're going to have a dog, you must do two things: 1) Take the effort to train and care for them properly, and 2) Give up on the idea of having a 'perfect, tidy home.' They're autonomous creatures, they don't just turn off when you aren't interacting with them, they do stuff. Mistakes will be made, there will be stains.
God that woman with the dog demands… I once had a woman with a brand new beagle puppy spend over $300 in my pet store with her kids. As she’s checking out, she asks for a good shelter to dump her 6yr old cocker spaniel because “she’s deaf now, so what’s the point in keeping it?” I was so disgusted I couldn’t even answer her….
That's disgusting! I had a 17 yo pup to pass recently. In his later years, he had grown blind and deaf. I had to put my hand in front of his nose so he'd smell me before I gave him a pet, otherwise I'd startle him and I was afraid he'd have a heart attack from it. Dogs aren't just some plaything to get rid of when they get worn down. They're supposed to be part of the family. I'd hate to think this woman would disown her family if something happened to them and they can no longer function as a person, because "what's the point" then?
Oh that's horrible! Our sweet Shepherd had degenerative mylopathy signs when we got him from the shelter guessed to be about 5yrs. We didn't know, because the foot drag decreased immensely when we adopted him. Once it dramatically came back, we did everything in our power to help him until he got to the point he wouldn't let us help & wasn't enjoying life. You don't dump a pet because you think their deafness or other disability makes them less fun. Grrrr!
People don’t deserve dogs 😭 I might have gotten violent if someone told me something like that to my face… I just lost my senior pupper (16 years young) two months ago. She was also deaf and had cataracts, completely grey face, benign old lady bumps on her body, tear stains, etc. And she was still my best friend and I couldn’t imagine abandoning her to a shelter D:
As an AKC conservation breeder who has been showing dogs for a decade and is currently apply to vet school (theriogenology specialty). I wouldn't laugh. The lady looking for a frenchie puppy would immediately go on our AKC puppy buyer black list. She's insane
For that D&D enemy, I offer my resource: A powerful enchantress that betrayed her arrangement with a lich, leaving with his phylactery & undead horde to enact her evil plans without his 'dribble'. Ka'ren took the kids & ruined his life, maybe the party could run into said lich as he wallows in the misery of a mid-unlife crisis before learning about her.
I absolutely love both of the stories the two of you have. I definitely need to take note to give some suggestions for the next time we have a family D&D night
"we dont want a puppy that snaps when my daughter is kissing or showing affection." likely the crotch goblin is squeezing the poor animal to a point where it gets a panic attack just from being in the same room. they have essentially broken 5 dogs already.
That Karen who complained about being charged for cancelling at the last minute talked about them not being sympathetic about her not speaking German, but if was in her country, she would demand they speak English.
Imagine being so spoiled in life that you cant imagine a caregiver of a child being seperate from their parents. Tell me, how was it coming home after school to the privilege of seeing your parents every day?
Sadly, there are Karens in hospital as well. There are people who will screech about wanting a cup of coffee or tea despite knowing you are helping someone to the bathroom or attend to their personal care. We've had people demanding we feed them even though they are fully capable of eating and drinking, again, knowing that it would take assistance away from someone that needs it. Nurses and nursing assistants are there to help people, but, there are some who will try to take advantage of that fact.
I'm pretty sure that the parent talking about how they smashed their son's laptop is unknowingly confessing to a felony, if the son is 18 then he's not a kid anymore and I'm pretty sure it counts as destruction of property lol
I don't know if this applies to the US, too, but German laws clearly state that if you gift something to your child (like a laptop) it is their property. You can limit their access to said gift as a form of parental oversight, but destroying it is always a criminal act. Also applies for everything you bought for them to use, like their clothes or furniture.
It's not just about feelings either. Messages that are addressed to a subset, rather than the complete relevant set of people are poorly worded, and prone to cause confusion. It's kind of foolish for people to complain about inclusiveness, when the inclusiveness is specifically including a relevant person in an important communication.
Karen: gets upset when a scared puppy defends itself from her and her daughter Me, who is routinely chewed on by my dogs: wow, that's a cute stray dog. Wow, for a stray, it has a strong bite, and a fiesty temper! And wow, I didn't think it could find soap for it's chest fur, wait...
I mean, if you shove a 2-year-old in a dog's face, apropos of nothing, it will probably give you a little "warning" air-bite. Just a little warning to say "get that thing out of my face, I haven't even had time to sniff at it yet."
When you described bisexual people you described me. I was struggling with so many things in the past, that I pretended to be straight to avoid more conflicts with my family and acquaintances.
If those people are also antivax to the point where they refuse to vaccinate their children AND their pets, then they shouldn’t have kids either or be anywhere near small kids. They are a menace to public health.
@@FiveAlive95 also me at 19: "Maybe if I get really skinny, wear lots of makeup, and look and dress like Barbie, I'll feel like the real girl I think other people want me to be! But it's totes normal to always play as a gender you're not in games, right?"
. . .my kinda used to BE homophobic Brother WHO Said Like really really embaressing stuff Inknew was BS despite being 4 years Younger recently Had a Moment of clarify where He Said, that everyone has their Experimental bi Phase AS a Teen which was pretty gratifying for me, given that was my Thesis to why He was making sich a big Deal Out of Not being gay AS a Teen but IT also Made me laugh cause I am Ace to relate to that . . . .Had to Tell him nope, Not everyone experiments😂
15:16 My favourite personal "I'm never coming back here!" customer experiences came when I worked in a small supermarket chain in the uk which was owned by a larger chain. My small town had two supermarkets, and by coincidence of them originally being completely different companies, it was us and the larger company. Sometimes we'd have to go work in the larger supermarket, that kinda relationship. So every time I had customers tell me they were "NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN!!" it was usually because we charged 2p for bags (which wasn't standard back then) and some people would literally refuse to even complete a purchase and yell at me about it. Some would explicitly tell me they were only going to shop at the larger chain from now... the larger chain paid my wages and with all the love in the world to my colleagues in that store, never having those awful customers again AND knowing they were still paying my wages was always wonderful.
I think "caregiver" is the perfect term for a school form. When I was at school many kids would have their grandparents, aunts/uncles or older siblings come to parent conferences or school activities instead of their parents, for a variety of reasons, and this term would make it so neither the kid or the responsible adult that came to accompany them would be uncomfortable or confused.
26:10 I can confirm: I, myself, am a Frenchy, who tends to bite when a stranger tries to give me a kiss or touch me in any inappropriable way. I know Frenchies have a particular reputation in the USA when it comes to showing affection, but please, don't assume we have no boundaries. Wait what? Oh she was talking about French bulldogs? Et merde...
I worked at Wal-Mart and had a manager stand up to a Karen for me. This was over 15 years ago, so they were just called Crappy Customers then. The manager literally got between me and the customer and made her look at him every time she wanted to yell at me. "Ma'am, you're talking to me now. No, she can't tell you her last name. No, you don't get my last name either. My name is Blank. No, just Blank." That fact that I remember that as a shining beacon of kindness tells you just how often they actually took our part. Blank, if you are reading this, know that I'm STILL thankful to you. From Blank.
26:44 Lady, if you've "tried out" 5 different puppies, there's only one thing in common with those dogs, and it's not the breed, _it's YOU._ There is one, _and only one_ reason to "have a trial period" with an animal you want to adopt: You have existing pets and you want to make sure that the new addition won't cause problems with/for the pets you already have. That has always been a concern when we've already had 2 cats and were adopting a 3rd. And we made that clear _to the shelter_ we were at.
Yeah, something seems off from that message. I'm not sure what exactly she's doing, but all my experience with dogs tells me that doesn't sound right. I suspect she's backing the dog into a corner - VERY BAD - and just thrusting the child into the poor thing's face, no chance to sniff and think, no room to back off.
I worked at a coffee shop that caught fire and a Karen tried to demand we go back into the burning building to make her coffee. She was still screaming when the fire department got there and they tore her a new one. Police were called and we never saw Karen again. Best day of my life
Regarding your theory about homophobes who insist that sexuality is a choice probably being bi (or pan, or whatnot...) Yeah, I think you're spot on. And I am a religious bisexual lady myself. Keep up the good work, my good sir! 💗💜💙
When my brother was a small child, he accidentally let our mom's car door swing fully hitting the adjacent car in the parking lot, scraping the paint on the car. Even though it was an accident she still had to pay for the damages to the other car. It's called being responsible for your kid.
I actually had the same thing happen to me once when I worked in retail. This guy just started yelling at me to round the total to make it an even dollar because he didn't want change back. I kept explaining I didn’t have that power. The manager kept explaining that we can't change the total in the register. It was a very stressful day. I also had to deal with a Karen who had badgered my boss into letting her get the most expensive items free in our two for one sale. She then screamed at me through the whole purchase causing me to get flustered and make mistakes which only caused more screaming. The manager had to take over and later I got a lecture about how I should have done more to keep the lady calm. Kind of hard to do when she started the transaction by calling me stupid and then proceeded to yell at me for every move I made. Stores really need to stop bowing down to Karen temper tantrum’s.
27:00 A 10-week-old puppy, with no bonding, but with completed obedience and toilet training. With specific coat and eye color, and the Karen will send an inspection crew? Yeah, her daughter will *never* get a puppy.
Just as well. One day her daughter will be an adult and after a lot of therapy to get over her mother she might well be fit to have care of an animal, but not now. The mother should be banned from owning any animal.
A 10-week-old isn't even physically capable of being potty trained. They don't have bladder control and won't have it for another 2 weeks at the very least.
Imagine if the US implemented a Dress Code for the entire country and territories. Karens will get a panic attack from being told what to wear. And since most US people are low and middle income, the Dress Code would need to be cheap clothes Karens would hate to wear. But the "visual littering" is extremely common in the US so it will be impossible to make people follow a Dress Code, especially on younger generations and Millenial Karens. PS millenials are on their 30s already and still say Millenials are ruining the world, the irony.
I wonder how they'd like my fuzzy Nightmare Before Christmas pajama pants when it's fall & I'm checking the mail? Thankfully our Association isn't THAT picky. 😆
Speaking of Karens wanting to speak to the manager, I recently listened to a Reddit story about this one Karen who kept demanding that she speak to a manager and the actual manager kept telling her over and over that she was the manager but the Karen just kept pretending she didn't say anything or whatever because no matter how many times she said she was the manager the Karen kept saying let me speak to the manager over and over again basically ignoring what she was saying.
I just had the worst fucking Pride Amsterdam ever, and I felt/feel so lonely and horrible about what happened. So Clicky, I can't say how glad I am to see a notification about a new video. Thanks so much, I always love your content!!
So basically, someone used his situation of power & manipulation, to get me out of a building/away from a friend of mine, just so he could have sex/sleep with him. I really liked that friend, and I mean this is partially his fault too, since he felt guilty to that guy (long story, but again manipulation, so idk) but I really liked that friend, we just told each other how we felt about each other and I felt so good with him, it was so wholesome before. But now I just cannot unsee/forget this. I mean, I am never going to get close with him, knowing he had sex with someone I sooooo fucking despise. But then it got worse because my last train home was canceled, so instead of that friend staying with me until the first train as we planned, I was alone on the streets for hours, just feeling sad and alone and sometimes being annoyed by random people on the streets. And this abuse of power and manipulation really made me think back to a very bad situation in my past, that I suppressed for so long, but it's all so very real again now?

Not true, my gay friend is very organized and uses his agenda to note all birthdays, events and so on... All fun aside, I do think there is a gay agenda and it is fairly simple. Stop harassment and discrimination.
To be fair I have a gay agenda. The contents of my gay agenda: Entry 1, date: the start of time until the end of time, objective: be gay. End of gay agenda.
But wait. If the writer of an agenda is gay, does that make any agenda they write a gay agenda? In that case, a gay agenda could be "10:00 AM: meeting with front-end dev team, 12:30 PM: lunch with boss, 2:00 PM: patch release deadline"
My mom is actually a bisexual who “chose” to be straight like you were suggesting. Who lived in an extremely toxic and religious environment. Who has tried to push the same narrative on to me (jokes on her I’m asexual and had more partners of the same sex than the opposite) and I just feel bad for her. Nowadays she’s come out of her shell a little bit and became just a little more accepting but she has a LONG way to go.
So a professional citizen of the U.S. the number sticker that states "You will address me as my husband's rank" counts as stealing valor which is illegal. Stealing valor is pretty much address yourself as a military rank you didn't earn as to gain some benefit.
One guy came into my store, told me he bought a Pepis the night before, but left it in his car, and asked if he could exchange his warm Pepis for a cold one... I told him no, ofc. Like, he said okay and went on with his day, so at least he wasnt Karening.
To answer your question on if people who thought homosexuality was a choice but they themselves were bisexual, but they grew up in such a brainwashed society that they didn’t know that gay was even a thing until 13 and thought liking guys and girls was just still being straight. It happens a lot. It happened to me and my sister, and we’re both bisexual but didn’t realize it until way later in life cause of the social group that we were brought up in.
Or aces, Same Logic AS with bis If you are equally unattracted to both and think ITS the Same for everyone, IT you can Chose WHO you are pretending to BE attracted to
Honestly, as someone who has two caregivers, I would have appreciated that when signing forms as a child. I do call them "mom" and "dad", but I know they aren't my parents and I introduce them as "the people who adopted me".
Omg, I heard when my grandma found out my mom was bisexual, she said "Don't you think I've had those thoughts too? You're supposed to resist it!" So she basically confirmed we have 3 generations of bisexuals in our family line.

I work at starbucks. I had a customer named Frank who would always misgender me whenever i had to talk to him. one day after ordering from me at the register and calling me "sir" all throughout, he went over to the opposite side of the store and started chatting with the other baristas saying things like "oh so this is where the *real* women are." That kinda crap (Basically talking shit about me to my coworkers) all of them got uncomfortable. My friend Brittany told him thats really offensive and he needs to stop. To which the Frabk replied:
"ya well i dont believe in that transgender bs. Back in my country, we execute people like that.
.
Brittany is a fiery woman with a heart of gold. She started chewing his ass out. Yelling at him about what a horrible asshole he is for acting like that okay.
So old man Frank, absolutely stunned that hes being yelled at by a 25 year old barista demands to talk to the manager. And Brittanys like, "ya. Let me get him. Im sure hed love to hear this"
My manager comes out and asks whats going on. Frank tells him. And my manager listens very politely. And then says
"Thank you for sharing that with me. Let me get some of your information so i can write a report about this incident. (Gets his full name and phone number) okay and now Im gonna need you to get out of my store."
"But why? She yelled at me. Im a custome-..."
"I dont care Frank. get out. Youre banned. I have your information and if i see you in here again im calling the police for trespassing."
😂 I cant describe how good it felt to never have to see that horrible man-karen again.
I love that he thought the "we execute people like that" thing was gonna help him despite being in a different fucking country with different laws
@@thenexus8384 yeah, right?! What kind of response was he expecting? "We wish we could execute her too, but its illeeegal 😮💨"

@@duckykittn i dont think he considers me "people". 😅
@ErisApplebottom When, in fact, HE'S not a person. He might be "human", but he is definitely not a civilized individual. Again, I am so sorry for what you go through. My son is pan and is off and on dating a trans woman, and I truly try to be as accepting of EVERYONE as I can. I grew up in a severely homophobic environment and I felt first hand how being different could be dangerous.
The whole “how many of these crazy homophobes are closet bi’s” thing is something i’ve personally experienced. My boyfriend’s mom is crazy homophobic after she was in a long term relationship with a woman and when she got her heart broken it sent her into a wild homophobic rhetoric because she “chooses to not pursue/indulge her homosexual feelings” she is literally bisexual but is a insane conspiracy theorist right wing christian and is super proud that she just doesnt engage in her “impure thoughts” 😬😬😬 so youre not far off
I kinda feel bad for these people, but at the same time, they actively choose to resent themselves and others for something that's completely natural
Probably a lot of the non-crazy sometimes embarrassing to know but not quite homophobes as well. Yes, I'm talking about (some of your) parents and grandparents. I'm talking about my dad, anyway. He's like, "Oh, every TV program has to have a gay couple now" and has repeatedly explained (despite how much I don't want to know :P ) how when he was young he was attracted to men but resisted their 'gay pressure' to become heterosexual and is still somewhat convinced that people can be influenced into 'the gayness'. I really want to say "OR, maybe you're just bisexual and ended up in a monogamous heterosexual relationship".
Click is absolutely onto something here!
I fully believed being Gay was a choice, and I languished under the "bi-curious" label for years. Finally I came out as openly Bisexual and realized that I couldn't ever choose not to be Bi, it was just who I was. It was who I had secretly always been.
That was the moment it clicked for me.
yeah sounds like she had a mental break from the breakup and her internalized homophobia kind of exploded out and her fragile mental state made her prime for getting roped in by alt-right BS. (bcs conspiracy bs and christian nuttery is as much a part of alt-right now as the T in LGBTQ+)
I mean demonizing your ex is a common thing ppl do to make themselves feel better so imagine the appeal of an entire ass movement ready and willing to do the same thing and hail you as a victim, as strong, and the good superior person. That's extremely appealing for ppl in a bad, insecure and vulnerable mental state

I think the term "caregiver" is so offensive to Karen because she fails to live up to the simple implication: to give care. 🙃
Karen: "I'm NoT a CaReGiVeR, i'M a PaReNt!!1!" 🥴
Me: apPARENTly, you're not... 🙃
"I don't like the term caregiver bcs it doesn't include me! I'm not a caregiver, I'm a parent"
aka I don't give care, and my ego can't take being titled caregiver bcs it doesn't imply that I own my child enough, which I think I do just bcs I gave birth to it
Or the implication she can be replaced by another family member that would do infinitely better than her. Though both are true
I find this especially confusing, since in my school whenever something is announced they always go "parents and caretakers/caregivers of our students"-how is that a big deal?? How entitled do you have to be to get so offended by a more inclusive word that includes YOU

Jepp. These are the kind of people who will euthanise their pup when it snaps at the kid after it has tried to walk away or sleep x-amounts of time without being left alone. Because of course it is "aggressive" if it does so. I've actually heard about a couple who did so with 3 labradors (again; for "aggression") because if the kid wanted to play with it, the pup had to do so.
They shouldn't be allowed to buy a pet at all. Plushies or tamagochi better be all they get.

1: be gay

My boss used to wave goodbye and say "Ok, see you soon" to anyone who said we lost a customer or they were never coming back. We usually saw them again a week or two later. She would also sit on the phone with angry customers for upwards of 10 to 20 minutes until she could get a word in and would just let them know that no matter how angry they are she's still getting paid and doesnt care. Anytime a customer would be ranting or raving she would just put the phone down and let them rant while she went onto her phone. She took nothing from rude people
"I'm never coming back!"
That was the same empty threat given by one woman who came through on a weekly basis, complaining how her food last week was wrong. Like, if it's wrong, why come back? Multiple times??

As someone who was in the foster system as a kid, I was always really grateful for little things like "caregiver", "custodian", etc. on forms, rather than just "parent". Even better when they don't require you to specify, you just fill out the name. Inclusive language is so important.
Although I think a lot of foster-parents would LOVE to be able to be considered just "parent" as well=) But yes. I agree. It doesn't hurt anyone, and it's considerate for those who might not have someone they can call "parent" to write down.
@@alisemaleneohme4666 Plus, there's plenty of cases where a document requiring a parent can cause legal trouble is signed by a non-blood guardian or whatever (even if the given paper isn't particularly legally binding to any real standard). Because Karens are everywhere.

My Brother IS genuinly traumatised from His stupid privat school Always making a big Deal Out of the Last names of our Family Not matching Up . . . .He was Put one the Spot about IT so often it was total BS . . . IT IS Not so hard to understand that fostering IS a Thing that exists!!!
I’ve always hated people for judging moms who got a c-section. My mom got a c-section for all 4 of her children, myself included, because the doctors literally couldn’t get the baby to come out the normal way. Not only is there nothing wrong with getting a c-section, but it’s not always a choice either.
My MIL would have died in childbirth along with her only child (my husband) if she hadn’t gotten a C-section. It’s a LIFE-SAVING PROCEDURE.
That attitude is also dismissive of adoptive parents. Biology is not the only way to make a family.
my mom has a disease she inherited from her dad. because of it, my brother is the only child she gave birth to and he was born 2 months early with a lot of medical issues (doctors didn’t think he’s live past a few weeks). me and my sister had to be c-sections. if my mother refused to get one, i wouldn’t be alive. she is also the best mother i could have asked for. she would do anything for us and she loves us. people trying to claim that getting a c-section means you aren’t a real mother makes me so angry i feel sick. she went through too much pain and suffering for someone to say that.
I had a cousin who was born with an overdeveloped cranium. He literally would not come out normally, so he was c-sectioned. His younger siblings were better proportioned, but because my aunt c-sectioned once, her body wouldn't pass her others normally because she didn't pass her first one normally. She is still a real mother, despite her 3 c-sections. Stfu, Karen.
Until I herd it in a recent video I've never heard of that, just isn't a thing where I'm from, and where I'm from is very Conservative, but never have I heard someone critiquing a women for having a c section, I honestly don't even get why, is it cuz she didn't go through the pain, why on earth would that matter?
@@aleksabanjevic8316 yes it is. They didn’t have those few minutes of actually pushing the child through the birth canal, so the months of gestation and hours or DAYS of labor before the C-section was deemed necessary don’t count! Also everyone knows postpartum recovery with all the “regular” physical bs while caring for a newborn is only made easier by also recovering from an abdominal surgery!
It’s solely a way to make yourself feel superior to someone for something they had little to no control over (per NIH, only 10% of C-sections are truly elective).
"Caregiver" (if not related, such as aunt, uncle & grandparents) is a term used for those whose parents are either unable to take care of the child due to reasons OR the parents are deceased. Such is done for a child in the care system, Karen, now, just because you gave birth to your snot gremlin, doesnt make you a "parent", that is a title you must earn too, by raising your snot gremlin properly & not to be a mini Karen like yourself.
Kind of gives off the same energy as people who conveniently forget that some people have gender neutral names or anonymous identities online when they complain about pronouns.
A lot of us have been using these words due to adoption and foster care. We're happy to normalize these terms. Please, take them. Please make them normal. Use them. Those of us in "non normal" families would ADORE that they get forced into the lexicon of these god-fearing all white folks and make them realize that families are made of all types. Please. Make them as uncomfortable as I was made to be IN THE 90s just because I was adopted.
By a straight couple. Who were white. We didn't even look dissimilar. But that still drove Karens FREAKIN WILD. They despise what they do not understand. Force the Karens to learn for the love of god.
I think in Germany that is already normalized since as far as I can remember back there was always the word "Erziehungsberechtigter" which is kind of hard to translate, but "Caregiver" would probably the best one. Word for word it would be something like "authorized for upbringing" so it is very generalized. And that was already on about all the forms I had to bring to my parents when I was a child and that was back in the 80s.
@@Valfara770 exactly, this is because in Germany all thos paperwork is highly formalized, and a person that is not legally authorized as "Erziehungsberechtigter" is not even allowed to sign these.
This is because in many cases the "Erziehungsberechtigter" is not a parent, but some other relative, or just one parent is, but the other is not.
And this has been the case for quite some time, especcially after WW2 a lot of children were not in custody of their parents, but of a relative that happened to survive, and children of underage mothers are often given into the legal custody of the parents of the minor until they are old enough to take on the duty themselves.
Caregiver is a shorter way to say parent or gaurdian
I sincerely hope NOBODY let's that woman and her daughter buy one of their puppies.
There are enough backyard breeder with dollar signs in their eyes who dont care who gets a pup from them as long as the payment is right.

My bf told me a story that happened when he worked at gamestop. He had a GM that was a 5'3 latina woman, and she wouldn't always wear her name tag that had her title on it. Naturally, there are plenty of guys that are pretty misogynistic and gate-keepy when it comes to games or anything nerdy. One day while bf was on shift, GM was dealing with a customer who would do nothing but deny or refute anything she said, especially if he was asking questions about something. Dude was getting fed up and demanded to speak with her manager, as she didn't have her name tag on. She smiled, said "ok", dropped down behind the counter out of sight and popped back up with her GM nametag and said "how can I help you". Bf had to go to the storage area bc he couldn't breathe after seeing the guy's face.

When I worked in a call center for tech support, we had an irate, misogynistic customer call in. He got a female agent, and demanded her supervisor because "girls don't know computers". So, she escalated to her supervisor...another woman. Again he demanded her manager, he refused to talk to women. So again he was escalated...to the manager, who was another woman. The man was full ranting mad, and demanded "the man in charge." So I, walking back from the break room, was flagged over. (At the time I was one of the "supervisors" who took escalations.)
He was happy he could finally talk to The Man of the call center. So I, being the nice person that I am not, decided to troll the heck out of him. Every time we did a step of trouble shooting, I would put him on hold for 30 seconds to a minute, and then come back and we'd do the next step. This continued for a few minutes until he exploded in anger again and demanded to know why I kept putting him on hold.
I told him, "Sir, you have talked to the tech, and refused their help. You talked to their supervisors and managers, and refused their help, demanding me. I manage this site, I'm not one of the people trained in this. I'm putting you on hold to ask her what to do next." (This was, of course, me talking out of my arse.) He was furious about this, but we resumed troubleshooting. As memory serves, all told, it was an over 1 hour long call, for a problem that would have taken 5-10 minutes for the original agent to fix.
That’s hilarious 😂
That's awesome. I wish I could have seen it.
I once worked as a tech support in a big game company for a few months. There was this one time my female coworker expressed how one of her clients kept refusing to let her assist him because “a girl wouldn’t be able to fix a man’s problem” Since we have certain requirements to follow in order to be able to escalate a case to agents in higher tiers, she was stuck trying to convince him to accept her help. She said she was gonna leave the ticket opened and let the system kick it back to other male agents in the team once she got off. But I had an idea and told her, “Y’know what? Send it to my queue, pretend that the system did that on its own. I gotcha” (A little bit of context though, I have an Asian name that’s totally unisex, even people who know my language still wouldn’t have guessed my gender.) So, I got the ticket and introduced myself, telling him how I will be assisting him instead of my colleague since her shift had already ended. I managed to fix his simple problem with one try and when he came back to confirm that the issue was resolved, he ended with “Thanks! This is why a girl shouldn’t do a man’s job.” I saw my opportunity and replied with “You are more than welcome! Thank you for letting this girl helping you out. Have a great day!” Then I closed his ticket, anticipating my team lead to pull me aside the next day but apparently the client never reopened that ticket so I was good. lmao
When I came out, there were so many people in my family who said sus things. My parents told me something like "its normal to be confused about that when you are young and to want to experiment" and then implied that they had both "experimented" as teens... My dad understands that being gay is not a choice, but he has told me that acting on those feelings and living a gay lifestyle IS a choice, and that you can just choose not to. Then my grandma gave me a whole speech about how every woman perfers the company of other women but you just gotta be with a man beacuse thats how things are...
Ever since then I think most of my family members might not be so straight after all XD
Congratulations on your very LGBT+ family tree. I hope you can teach them to face up to their anxieties.
Your dad isn't wrong on that one. You don't choose your sexual orientation, but outing yourself and trying to live by it is indeed a choice. More orten than not, a hard choice.
Doesn't mean that choosing to live true to yourself is wrong. On that part, your family is wrong... they may think of your wellbeing knowing life is more difficult when you own up to your queerness, but heh. The world ain't gonna be better if people keep choosing the closet.

So, I work at a thrift store. We make about 120k a week. We don't put out jackets in the summer so, last summer this one lady came in looking for a jean jacket. When I told her we didn't have them, she stormed off and found my friend who said the same thing. She asked for the manager who did not care and the lady says "you're going to lose money." Yeah, okay lady. We shall shed a tear for not getting your $11.
Had a customer say this to me the other day, after I told her we don’t accept cash and only do cards. I could only tell her I'm sorry while in my head thinking "great, at least I won't have to deal with you again."
Her aggression triggered a panic attack for me and I almost had to go home. Fun times.

33:50 can confirm, my dads girlfriend who didn't accept my orientation (asexual) belived it wasn't real and that sexuality was a choice because she was intrested in both men and woman and "tried both then realsied I liked men better" therefore she belives this confirms the idea that queer people are confused and should try the opposite gender and they'll chnage thier mind. She would not listen to me when I tried to explain that this was infact, not a normal heterosexual experience.
If I had a nickel for every time I've had to explain that I'm asexual, "no, I'm not just saying that... / no, I'm not a frigid bitch you incel / no, I won't change my mind if I have more dick," etc. I would have waaaay more than 2 nickels. -_-

My cousin's son was exclusively taken care for by my other cousin, his aunt, because of complex medical reasons, at to this day she's still taking care of him, if only partially. My aunt, a cis straight woman, is his CAREGIVER.
She has worked harder to be a de facto parent than this rotten excuse of a woman.
Yes caregivers are literally the best, they really deserve they world for the shit they do (regardless of gender). My grandma has raised me most my life and I would kill god and traverse hell for her.
26:00 No puppy deserves an owner like that. I hope that person *never* finds what she's looking for, and I feel bad for her daughter already.
If she's really screening breeders with that trainwreck of a message, she'd get no rely. The best she'd get would be a puppy mill dog. And that's... yikes!
That person should just go find a robot dog in the toy aisle at Target. That's the only way they're ever going to have their dream pet.
A living puppy that's only 10 WEEKS OLD would never be able to fit all of those standards.
It's nuts. How is a 2 month old puppy supposed to get housebroken, obedience trained, plus everything else? I shudder to think how they raise their "perfect" toddler.
I bet this wannabe pet owner thinks hunters are evil while being hypocritical about how to treat her pets.
*My daughter is very mature for her age, she can feel positive energy*
The reason they put 'caregiver' instead of 'parent' on those forms is because people like Karen end up in jail (likely for attacking a minimum wage worker) and their kids end up growing up without parents.
Well, yea and no. ‘Caregiver’ is used in case the child’s parents are busy and other family members step up in their stead.
The caregiver thing is more inclusive, a child might be under the care of a family relative or even an older sibling over the age of 18 or a grandparent, which does indeed happen in quite a few circumstances. Caregivers should be given more respect in society (as long as they are giving the child proper care and love) seeing as they take on responsibilities that the parents either can't due to stuff out of their control (which is valid and can't be helped) or won't (AKA: "parents" who do not deserve such a title).
It's a Karen, she wants her rights to cancel others, and she thinks that's the only way it works, so when someone else wants rights she fears it will overwrite hers
@@aleksabanjevic8316 that is true and people like that suck
You're absolutely correct. I have a relative who is in an in-home therapist for families in distress. So many of the kids have been placed with grandparents/other relatives because the actual parents are addicts or in prison or just dropped off the kid/kids one day and left, etc. The majority of their clients are grandparents that have been left to raise a toddler or very young child. Most of the cases there's more than one child involved too.
@@B1tchface22 it's a sad reality, but it happens and all we can really do is hope for the betterment of the children's lives
As someone who was brought up in a very religious home, and also attended parochial school until middle school, anything LGBTQ is never spoken of. I knew a few things, but was horribly sheltered with no real information about it. Growing up I did have an attraction to boys, but I found I had an even stronger attraction to girls. Understandably, I was so confused.
Fast-forward many, many years later, and as an adult I had realized I am bisexual (as well as demisexual). The amount of internalized hatred I had absorbed from the community, school, etc, took years to get over. I grew up never hating those in the LGBTQ, but I did hate myself. The damage is very real, and very toxic. I didn't allow myself to see who I really was for far too long.
Don't let others tell you how to view yourself, and find safe spaces to talk. I didn't have that luxury, but I feel there is more available now. Please be safe, and know you are perfect the way you are.
Who are you and what are you doing with my life story??? Lmao

@@reptiqueen7275 Same, that and racism. Aren't conservative/religious parents fun?
Despite having googled things online, and listened to podcasts, and read some articles, I still don’t know the difference between bisexual, pansexual and demisexual. @Liane Jaeger if you don’t mind clarifying the difference and I hope I’m not being intrusive or rude, being bisexual and demisexual - what exactly does this mean?
@@thekingwhostitches No worries, I'm happy to explain. ☺️ Demisexual basically means it's a secondary attraction, and there is no sexual attraction until there is an emotional bond or connection. So basically I need to not only get to know the person, but I need to connect to them on a deeper level to feel any intimate connection. I'm sure it can vary a bit for each person, too.
Bisexuality is often defined as being sexually or romantically attracted to both males and females, and can include other genders. Bisexuality is sometimes an umbreIlla term and can include pansexuality. In that case, it's more of a "hearts not parts" attraction, so it includes any gender and attraction to any gender. That being said, it can differ slightly for each person. Being bisexual, I'm attracted to both males and females in both a romantic and sexual way. For me, I find I may have some pansexual leanings because I also include non-binary and transgender people. A lot of times bisexuals will be attracted to cisgender males and females, but that doesn't necessarily mean they would not include other genders.
I'm hoping this explains it better? 😁😁

On top of that they wanted at least two weeks trial period to see if the puppy bonds with the daughter, as that apparently isn't possible after they turn ten weeks old. But then they just return them. Luckily there's no science behind this kind of bonding anyways, so poor survivor pups will still be happy in their new and better homes. Hopefully not being kissed or stroked against their will either. I really, really, really wish this is just trolling!

Being gay is still a sin
33:39 My parents are actually like this, they’re mormon and believe that if you are gay you just have to not pursue any relationship, and that most bisexual people were actually just attracted to the opposite gender as a kid then “grew out of it” like they did. Charming amiright 🥰
Sounds like some transphobes I know 🥰
Yeah, because it's so easy just not to follow that longing for love and you can absolutely live a happy and fulfilled life without it! 🙃
The catholic church also thinks that it was a good compromise to say god accepts that homosexual "tendencies" exist and doesn't judge people for having them, but living them is a sin!
Well thanks, how graceful of you. So I'm allowed to exist, but I shall always be alone with an aching heart?! Just burn me on a stake then, not much of a difference to me!
That was one of the reasons why I left the church and am never coming back (the other being how they covered up (and still do) the kiddy-diddlers among them). They were basically telling me god made me [this way] to suffer in a world where I can't follow my heart, and then wonder why I want nothing to do with them and refuse to praise their god! 🤣
I had lost faith in an all-seeing, allmighty god who's good-willed and helping me long ago anyways...
I know a few old punks that think the same way. I'm glad younger people have more ways to talk to others who ""never grew out of it.""
Saame lol, my mother is exactly like this
I can’t imagine having to suppress attraction and love for someone in my entire life, just because that was “the right thing to do.” Sounds like a life of heartbreak, dreams unrealized. Sad.
As someone who has owned a Frenchie as well as many other dogs, a few extra special things about that lady's post:
Obedience training really isn't done until after a dog is spayed/neutured, so at least 8 months.
You will not find a Frenchie without allergies. Due to their breeding history, you'd be lucky to find one that could even eat a commercial dog food.
In the US (and c'mon, that lady must be American), it is illegal for a veterinarian to treat a dog who is unvaccinated for rabies. If the woman is that antivax, her dog will never be able to access any form of veterinary care. Most puppies from registered breeders will have already had their rabies vaccines by the time they are given to the new owners.
Puppies will nip and growl as a form of play. Even if this child is being the perfect angel and is completely respectful of the dog's boundaries (and let's be honest, she's TWO, that's unrealistic), her dogs might have been trying to play and bond with her.
Puppies don't come housebroken if they're less than ten weeks old. Not a thing.
Like Clicky said, this pair wants a tamagotchi, not a living breathing animal. People like that shouldn't be pet owners. It's infuriating to me when people act like dogs are just there for the entertainment of people. There's a difference between thinking that your dog is adorable, taking photos, dressing them up, etc., and viewing them as your plaything without a mind of their own.
I was about to say something like this. I don’t have experience with Frenchies but much bigger breeds (GSD & Lab) and this lady’s “requests” are beyond unreasonable.
Isn't it also that puppies aren't given to their new owners until they're at least 12 weeks old? It is definetely done with cats here in Germany (I think dogs too, but I got my last dog 21 years ago, so I'm not exactly up to date), because separating them too soon from their parents and siblings can result in some serious emotional and mental issues.
And I experienced it first hand, my parents in law's cat was separated too early and she can't cope with receiving love. She rubs up to your legs and meows, begging for attention but as soon as you give her attention, she gets confused and aggressive and she will attack you with teeth and claws. And I tried, but no amount of work I put into that animal ever changed anything.
@@midnight8341 In the US, the standard for puppies is 8-10 weeks, though it can sometimes be 6-12. I don't know about cats, since I've always adopted them.
That's what I was thinking. I don't know much about dogs but expecting a puppy to have completed obedience training at 6-10 weeks old feels slightly unrealistic
It's a very bad idea to wait that long before starting obedience training. Basic obedience should be started from day 1, its how you establish boundaries with your dog and trust me. Waiting that long will make one hell of a dog to be aroubd. Dogs shouldn't be fixed until at minimum of 2 years old as well, they NEED those hormones until that age as that is when they truly stop growing. Some breeds don't stop growing or maturing until 3+ years old!
A breed I am looking at the breeder I want to work with won't let her puppies be fixed until a minimum of 4 years old. Since their BODIES may stop maturing at 2 their brains don't stop maturing until 3 at the earliest and those hormones are essential for the mental health of the developing dog.
Very first one gave me flashbacks of a similar experience, but it turned out very differently. I had loaned a studio ghibli movie to my sister for her grandkids to watch. A few days later she handed me back a fresh, unopened copy of the same movie. She said the kids wanted to watch it again but accidentally broke the disk trying to get it out. Her kids broke my movie and instead of informing me about it she bought me a replacement. She did tell me what happened after handing me the new copy tho.
That's what you're supposed to do. Your kids are your responsibility, borrowed property is also your responsibility. If your kids break borrowed property it is your responsibility to replace it.
About the animal issue. It was 1991. Moma was working as a care-taker who had a 4 yrs old granddaughter. That woman thought it would be a good idea to get her 4 yr old a kitten. This toddler was constantly squeezing the kitten, hitting the kitten because it was to hissing at her, caring the poor kitten by the tail. She also kept the kitten in a rusty cage & she was just too scared to use the litter box....She just stayed curled up in a corner like a frightened child. Then the kitten starting walking funny & had started vomiting up blood. The old lady told moma that she was going to have to get someone to shoot it because she didn't have the money to take it to the vet to put it down humanely. So, my moma, my sister & me devised a plan to "rescue" this poor kitten. While the granddaughter was in Pre-K & while moma was talking the old lady to Wal-Mart - my sister & I "kidnapped" the poor kitten. She was so weak & frail the she merely whimpered & couldn't even fight us off. I wrapped her in a towel & we floored it to the vet. The vet said we may have been too little to late & pretty much said "She doesn't have much longer, maybe a week if lucky." We wasn't ready to give up. We left the cage open so moma could use the line "The kitty probably broke out to die in peace. Cats do that if they are very sick." The lady believed the story.
We named the little kitty K.C. since we didn't expect it to make a comeback....3 days later, she was sowing AMAZING recovery. We took her to another vet. She had tail fractures, a cracked rib, had a skin infection on her back paws, an eye infection, & was fed food that cats can't normally digest. The new vet said that they would like to keep her for 3 days to get her digestive system on track, take care of all the fractures & infections at a discounted rate. If the cat died, she would not charge one penny, but if she lived, she would help us get evidence of the abuse so we could press charges. By a miracle, the kitty not only surviving, but thriving...Complete 180. We did file chrages, but back then Texas didn't have any decent pet abuse laws in the books. The "law" said see was "too old" to go to jail. ( She was in her 70's) & the granddaughter was too young to face court. The didn't fine either since she was "on fixed income" All she basically had to do is sign over the kitten to us & was not allowed to ever have another pet in the state of Texas. K. C. When we told the vet what the court did, we didn't even have to pay a bill. The vet said her survival was payment enough. We renamed K.C. to Kaci & she lived like a pretty, spoiled kitty cat should - with an abundance of love & affection - & she lived to the ripe old age of 12.
This is a bittersweet story. I am glad Kaci survived her abuse!
My grand-parents never neutered their female cat, so she often had babies. They chose to throw the baby cats against the window to kill them than give them away to people.
I never understood why they did that, znd why so violently. (I never saw that myself thank fook.)

We live next to a married couple who are a Karen and a Chad. In the first year of living here they called the town on us nine times. They actually had the town official come out to measure how high our dandelions were in our backyard. There is a huge hedge between us so they had to push through the foliage to even see our weeds. The town finally stopped taking their complaints when they faked a town notice about all the things the town wouldn’t look into. Sigh. They are everywhere!

YES I am all for the "theory" that people that believe being gay is a choice are just confused/closeted bisexuals! It makes so much sense. I talked to my twin about it recently actually and we both agreed and had a laugh about it.
Makes sense. I know someone who tells that being gay is a choice bcz "they've felt attracted to woman and weren't lesbian."

With that in mind, please read on with the benefit of the doubt. Either way thank you for reading this far, and I hope you're having a good day/night. 😊)
I get that feeling, my friend. I used to be all kinds of -phobic, though for me it was coming solely from a place of misunderstanding. Then I happened to watch a video about asexuality, had a "Oh sh$1" (pardon my french) moment, and slowly but steadily came to the realization that everybody deserves respect, regardless of whether or not I agreed with them on anything, or whether I could relate to them on some level.
Two years later, I'm in a much better place (mentally and physically), while my family tries their best to be compassionate and mindful of my own identity and the identities/experiences of others. I'm not saying they've got it all down pat- me coming out as transmasc last year is a big adjustment for them, though they're not being cruel about it or anything -but they've changed to become better people, once they realized that being -phobic (even out of ignorance) is extremely hurtful to those it takes a poo on.
All that to say, I don't know your situation, and your relationship with those currently in your life can- honestly most likely *does* -vary from mine. But, if God is nudging you to tell somebody IRL, and you know they wouldn't/can't bring your life crashing down, it's not always a stupid idea to act on it.
Also, It's best to prioritize safety first, and to not spin yourself in mental knots when avoidable, all that good stuff- keeping in mind that stuffing a core part of yourself away where nobody will see it tends to end unpleasantly. When all is said and done, the worst thing to do is to innately assume you're alone in your experiences, no matter what said experiences entail. If anything comes out clearly in this long-winded train wreck of a reply, I hope that part does.
(Also if you would like any strategies for explaining asexuality to Christians, I've got some gold to pass on if you'd like. Also a couple really good books with well-done rep, though that might be harder to hide all things considered.

i used to get so angry when hearing things about the “gay agenda”. i’ve learned how to manage that, but i still get a feeling of melancholy whenever the topic arises.
"This isn't shooting yourself in the foot. This is playing football with a landmine."
I lost it. I keeled ovee laughing. That was too good.
Ya I'm totally using that
7:30 in a school where I studied for years one year suddenly the forms changed from "parents" to "caregivers". Since it was the 90s and this "they are trying the erase the cishet" BS hadn't really taken over and it was a small school where everyone knew everyone, no one thought much of it. But a few weeks after the school year started we found out that a boy that was new in my class had lost both of his parents in an accident and was being raised by his aunt and uncle and the school had the sensibility to realise that putting "parents", "mom" and "dad" everywhere and not include other caregivers on school things (like mothers day and fathers day) would be really hurtful for that boy that had lost his parents and for the people that were taking care of him and had also lost part of their family over that. And after that, in every other school I went to and didn't have "caregivers" included I would tell them this story and ask them to add that, just in case one of their students needed that.
I feel so bad for any puppy that family touched. It sounds like they want a perfect toy that would get ignored and locked in a cage most of the time. I knew of one family with white carpets that kept their new puppy locked up most of the time so it wouldn't mess up their perfect house :( they then complained when it chewed things up and had way to much energy.
If you're going to have a dog, you must do two things: 1) Take the effort to train and care for them properly, and 2) Give up on the idea of having a 'perfect, tidy home.' They're autonomous creatures, they don't just turn off when you aren't interacting with them, they do stuff. Mistakes will be made, there will be stains.
God that woman with the dog demands… I once had a woman with a brand new beagle puppy spend over $300 in my pet store with her kids. As she’s checking out, she asks for a good shelter to dump her 6yr old cocker spaniel because “she’s deaf now, so what’s the point in keeping it?” I was so disgusted I couldn’t even answer her….
That's disgusting! I had a 17 yo pup to pass recently. In his later years, he had grown blind and deaf. I had to put my hand in front of his nose so he'd smell me before I gave him a pet, otherwise I'd startle him and I was afraid he'd have a heart attack from it. Dogs aren't just some plaything to get rid of when they get worn down. They're supposed to be part of the family. I'd hate to think this woman would disown her family if something happened to them and they can no longer function as a person, because "what's the point" then?
I have a senior dog and I wouldn't get rid of him for anything. He can be aggrivating sometimes, but my family still loves him.
Oh that's horrible! Our sweet Shepherd had degenerative mylopathy signs when we got him from the shelter guessed to be about 5yrs. We didn't know, because the foot drag decreased immensely when we adopted him. Once it dramatically came back, we did everything in our power to help him until he got to the point he wouldn't let us help & wasn't enjoying life. You don't dump a pet because you think their deafness or other disability makes them less fun. Grrrr!
People don’t deserve dogs 😭 I might have gotten violent if someone told me something like that to my face…
I just lost my senior pupper (16 years young) two months ago. She was also deaf and had cataracts, completely grey face, benign old lady bumps on her body, tear stains, etc. And she was still my best friend and I couldn’t imagine abandoning her to a shelter D:
As an AKC conservation breeder who has been showing dogs for a decade and is currently apply to vet school (theriogenology specialty). I wouldn't laugh. The lady looking for a frenchie puppy would immediately go on our AKC puppy buyer black list. She's insane
For that D&D enemy, I offer my resource:
A powerful enchantress that betrayed her arrangement with a lich, leaving with his phylactery & undead horde to enact her evil plans without his 'dribble'.
Ka'ren took the kids & ruined his life, maybe the party could run into said lich as he wallows in the misery of a mid-unlife crisis before learning about her.
I played a Karen as a player. Goblin beserker who'd rage in shops and stuff. She lasted two sessions before getting one-shot by Strahd.
I absolutely love both of the stories the two of you have. I definitely need to take note to give some suggestions for the next time we have a family D&D night
"we dont want a puppy that snaps when my daughter is kissing or showing affection."
likely the crotch goblin is squeezing the poor animal to a point where it gets a panic attack just from being in the same room.
they have essentially broken 5 dogs already.
Huh
That Karen who complained about being charged for cancelling at the last minute talked about them not being sympathetic about her not speaking German, but if was in her country, she would demand they speak English.
Imagine being so spoiled in life that you cant imagine a caregiver of a child being seperate from their parents. Tell me, how was it coming home after school to the privilege of seeing your parents every day?
Imagine being such a failure of a parent, that you feel excluded by the term "caregiver".
My Girl Scout Camp changed “mom and me” weekend to “Me and my STAR (Special Trusted Adult Relation)”. It was cute!
I can't wait for the part in the movie 'Karen' where the main character looks directly into the camera and says "It's Karen' time."
While she proceeds to pull out her phone, about to record the situation
Who do you fancy for the starring role?
@@missharry5727 Patti LuPone, the queen of not taking BS
Sadly, there are Karens in hospital as well. There are people who will screech about wanting a cup of coffee or tea despite knowing you are helping someone to the bathroom or attend to their personal care. We've had people demanding we feed them even though they are fully capable of eating and drinking, again, knowing that it would take assistance away from someone that needs it. Nurses and nursing assistants are there to help people, but, there are some who will try to take advantage of that fact.
That's one of the reasons I decided not to go into surg tech or nursing.
I'm pretty sure that the parent talking about how they smashed their son's laptop is unknowingly confessing to a felony, if the son is 18 then he's not a kid anymore and I'm pretty sure it counts as destruction of property lol
I was thinking that had to be the case, they're a legal adult now.
Also if the kid was a minor but paid for the laptop with his own summerjob money, right?
I don't know if this applies to the US, too, but German laws clearly state that if you gift something to your child (like a laptop) it is their property. You can limit their access to said gift as a form of parental oversight, but destroying it is always a criminal act.
Also applies for everything you bought for them to use, like their clothes or furniture.
Also if the kid takes online classes god help them
They use caregiver so kids who aren’t living with their parents don’t feel called out… they also use Guardian as well
It's not just about feelings either.
Messages that are addressed to a subset, rather than the complete relevant set of people are poorly worded, and prone to cause confusion.
It's kind of foolish for people to complain about inclusiveness, when the inclusiveness is specifically including a relevant person in an important communication.
What sorry excuse for a parent doesn't feel included in the term caregiver anyway?..
Karen: gets upset when a scared puppy defends itself from her and her daughter
Me, who is routinely chewed on by my dogs: wow, that's a cute stray dog. Wow, for a stray, it has a strong bite, and a fiesty temper! And wow, I didn't think it could find soap for it's chest fur, wait...
I mean, if you shove a 2-year-old in a dog's face, apropos of nothing, it will probably give you a little "warning" air-bite. Just a little warning to say "get that thing out of my face, I haven't even had time to sniff at it yet."
When you described bisexual people you described me. I was struggling with so many things in the past, that I pretended to be straight to avoid more conflicts with my family and acquaintances.
That email about the Frenchie makes me horrified and concerned for what’s obviously an animal abuse situation. Those people must never have a pet.
If those people are also antivax to the point where they refuse to vaccinate their children AND their pets, then they shouldn’t have kids either or be anywhere near small kids. They are a menace to public health.
"Everybody struggles with 'those thoughts' about the same sex sometimes!"
Oh my sweet summer child.
Ok me but like pre egg cracking like
"Everyone spends time thinking of presenting as another gender sometimes"
@@FiveAlive95 also me at 19:
"Maybe if I get really skinny, wear lots of makeup, and look and dress like Barbie, I'll feel like the real girl I think other people want me to be! But it's totes normal to always play as a gender you're not in games, right?"
@@DakshaiRanger oh man, I too went through my "femme for social approval" phase 😭
Found I function much better on self-approval lol
. . .my kinda used to BE homophobic Brother WHO Said Like really really embaressing stuff Inknew was BS despite being 4 years Younger recently Had a Moment of clarify where He Said, that everyone has their Experimental bi Phase AS a Teen which was pretty gratifying for me, given that was my Thesis to why He was making sich a big Deal Out of Not being gay AS a Teen but IT also Made me laugh cause I am Ace to relate to that . . . .Had to Tell him nope, Not everyone experiments😂
15:16 My favourite personal "I'm never coming back here!" customer experiences came when I worked in a small supermarket chain in the uk which was owned by a larger chain. My small town had two supermarkets, and by coincidence of them originally being completely different companies, it was us and the larger company. Sometimes we'd have to go work in the larger supermarket, that kinda relationship. So every time I had customers tell me they were "NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN!!" it was usually because we charged 2p for bags (which wasn't standard back then) and some people would literally refuse to even complete a purchase and yell at me about it. Some would explicitly tell me they were only going to shop at the larger chain from now... the larger chain paid my wages and with all the love in the world to my colleagues in that store, never having those awful customers again AND knowing they were still paying my wages was always wonderful.
A neighborhood dress code makes me think of a cult. If everyone in the area was dressed the same, I would think I entered a horror movie
Or seriously dangerous gang territory
''A word exists''
Karen: ''This is a personal attack!!''
And I took that personally
I think "caregiver" is the perfect term for a school form. When I was at school many kids would have their grandparents, aunts/uncles or older siblings come to parent conferences or school activities instead of their parents, for a variety of reasons, and this term would make it so neither the kid or the responsible adult that came to accompany them would be uncomfortable or confused.
26:10 I can confirm: I, myself, am a Frenchy, who tends to bite when a stranger tries to give me a kiss or touch me in any inappropriable way. I know Frenchies have a particular reputation in the USA when it comes to showing affection, but please, don't assume we have no boundaries.
Wait what? Oh she was talking about French bulldogs? Et merde...

"HOW DARE YOU TREAT YOUR EMPLOYEES LIKE HUMAN BEINGS" karen 2022
I worked at Wal-Mart and had a manager stand up to a Karen for me. This was over 15 years ago, so they were just called Crappy Customers then. The manager literally got between me and the customer and made her look at him every time she wanted to yell at me. "Ma'am, you're talking to me now. No, she can't tell you her last name. No, you don't get my last name either. My name is Blank. No, just Blank." That fact that I remember that as a shining beacon of kindness tells you just how often they actually took our part. Blank, if you are reading this, know that I'm STILL thankful to you. From Blank.
26:44 Lady, if you've "tried out" 5 different puppies, there's only one thing in common with those dogs, and it's not the breed, _it's YOU._
There is one, _and only one_ reason to "have a trial period" with an animal you want to adopt: You have existing pets and you want to make sure that the new addition won't cause problems with/for the pets you already have. That has always been a concern when we've already had 2 cats and were adopting a 3rd. And we made that clear _to the shelter_ we were at.
Yeah, something seems off from that message. I'm not sure what exactly she's doing, but all my experience with dogs tells me that doesn't sound right. I suspect she's backing the dog into a corner - VERY BAD - and just thrusting the child into the poor thing's face, no chance to sniff and think, no room to back off.
I worked at a coffee shop that caught fire and a Karen tried to demand we go back into the burning building to make her coffee. She was still screaming when the fire department got there and they tore her a new one. Police were called and we never saw Karen again. Best day of my life
Regarding your theory about homophobes who insist that sexuality is a choice probably being bi (or pan, or whatnot...) Yeah, I think you're spot on. And I am a religious bisexual lady myself.
Keep up the good work, my good sir! 💗💜💙
When my brother was a small child, he accidentally let our mom's car door swing fully hitting the adjacent car in the parking lot, scraping the paint on the car. Even though it was an accident she still had to pay for the damages to the other car. It's called being responsible for your kid.
I actually had the same thing happen to me once when I worked in retail. This guy just started yelling at me to round the total to make it an even dollar because he didn't want change back. I kept explaining I didn’t have that power. The manager kept explaining that we can't change the total in the register. It was a very stressful day. I also had to deal with a Karen who had badgered my boss into letting her get the most expensive items free in our two for one sale. She then screamed at me through the whole purchase causing me to get flustered and make mistakes which only caused more screaming. The manager had to take over and later I got a lecture about how I should have done more to keep the lady calm. Kind of hard to do when she started the transaction by calling me stupid and then proceeded to yell at me for every move I made. Stores really need to stop bowing down to Karen temper tantrum’s.
27:00 A 10-week-old puppy, with no bonding, but with completed obedience and toilet training. With specific coat and eye color, and the Karen will send an inspection crew? Yeah, her daughter will *never* get a puppy.
Just as well. One day her daughter will be an adult and after a lot of therapy to get over her mother she might well be fit to have care of an animal, but not now. The mother should be banned from owning any animal.
A 10-week-old isn't even physically capable of being potty trained. They don't have bladder control and won't have it for another 2 weeks at the very least.
Damn. If they called men wearing shorts "visual littering", I wonder what they called men in gray sweatpants.
Imagine if the US implemented a Dress Code for the entire country and territories. Karens will get a panic attack from being told what to wear. And since most US people are low and middle income, the Dress Code would need to be cheap clothes Karens would hate to wear.
But the "visual littering" is extremely common in the US so it will be impossible to make people follow a Dress Code, especially on younger generations and Millenial Karens. PS millenials are on their 30s already and still say Millenials are ruining the world, the irony.
I wonder how they'd like my fuzzy Nightmare Before Christmas pajama pants when it's fall & I'm checking the mail? Thankfully our Association isn't THAT picky. 😆
Speaking of Karens wanting to speak to the manager, I recently listened to a Reddit story about this one Karen who kept demanding that she speak to a manager and the actual manager kept telling her over and over that she was the manager but the Karen just kept pretending she didn't say anything or whatever because no matter how many times she said she was the manager the Karen kept saying let me speak to the manager over and over again basically ignoring what she was saying.
I feel like having a neighborhood dress code would get real cultish real fast
I feel like having a neighborhood dress code is cultists before it even starts.
Happy, happy. Blue, blue.
Veeeeeery Jonestown, I agree.
I just had the worst fucking Pride Amsterdam ever, and I felt/feel so lonely and horrible about what happened. So Clicky, I can't say how glad I am to see a notification about a new video. Thanks so much, I always love your content!!
What happened? :(
oh no :((
So basically, someone used his situation of power & manipulation, to get me out of a building/away from a friend of mine, just so he could have sex/sleep with him. I really liked that friend, and I mean this is partially his fault too, since he felt guilty to that guy (long story, but again manipulation, so idk) but I really liked that friend, we just told each other how we felt about each other and I felt so good with him, it was so wholesome before.
But now I just cannot unsee/forget this. I mean, I am never going to get close with him, knowing he had sex with someone I sooooo fucking despise. But then it got worse because my last train home was canceled, so instead of that friend staying with me until the first train as we planned, I was alone on the streets for hours, just feeling sad and alone and sometimes being annoyed by random people on the streets.
And this abuse of power and manipulation really made me think back to a very bad situation in my past, that I suppressed for so long, but it's all so very real again now?
Sorry for the long text and maybe overreacting to something that was clearly also my fault (since I could have said no, let's not go to that place in the first place) :/
@@letheas6175 Well, wasn't he manipulated into it? You could still be with them right? Think of the guy as a sicko ex? I'm not trying to change your view I'm just saying if you wanna get back together.
@@whaddafuck827 It's just messed up now because I cannot unsee things, plus this makes me feel bad about myself since I could have done a number of things that could've prevented this. And then, it's still always his decision in the end, regardless. I really do not have any motivation for trying to get back, or anything really.
This just brings up too much stuff for now, even meeting with other people will be difficult just because I feel like no one cares and I shouldn't either. I appreciate you guys though holy shit, how is this community always so helpful and wholesome? Thank you all:)
I mean to be honest he is so awesome and cute, I have to cry if I even think about it, which rarely ever happens. I don't usually have feelings like this? But it's just. Yeaaaaah, no. I can't, I really can't. Wish I could though :(
I love how that one woman gets told that she texted the wrong number, and immediately went overboard defending herself, even invoking the law to cover her bases.
Karens talking about the gay agenda when some of us gays dont even have a genda 🙄
Love your videos! Cant stop watching em recently
What is a genda anyway?
@@kittycatmeowmeow963 I think it’s a goose??
As a disaster bi, I've got a few agendas!
Most with maybe a few pages filled and then complete nothing, does that count?
Not true, my gay friend is very organized and uses his agenda to note all birthdays, events and so on...
All fun aside, I do think there is a gay agenda and it is fairly simple. Stop harassment and discrimination.
Gay agenda are such an oddly specific group to hate... 🙃
To be fair I have a gay agenda.
The contents of my gay agenda:
Entry 1, date: the start of time until the end of time, objective: be gay.
End of gay agenda.
Same
Mine also has an entry just called "gay panic"
I feel stupid because im scared of pigeons, but karens are scared of this? Really?
But wait. If the writer of an agenda is gay, does that make any agenda they write a gay agenda? In that case, a gay agenda could be "10:00 AM: meeting with front-end dev team, 12:30 PM: lunch with boss, 2:00 PM: patch release deadline"
Less “we don’t have a gay agenda” and more “The gay agenda is to be gay, DUH!” Please!
My mom is actually a bisexual who “chose” to be straight like you were suggesting.
Who lived in an extremely toxic and religious environment.
Who has tried to push the same narrative on to me (jokes on her I’m asexual and had more partners of the same sex than the opposite) and I just feel bad for her. Nowadays she’s come out of her shell a little bit and became just a little more accepting but she has a LONG way to go.
So a professional citizen of the U.S. the number sticker that states "You will address me as my husband's rank" counts as stealing valor which is illegal. Stealing valor is pretty much address yourself as a military rank you didn't earn as to gain some benefit.
Shhhhh if the karens don't know that they will be punished and we will have less karens
@@Sr_ECO less Karens? Is that punishable by death, or how will that work?
@@LRM12o8 oh no, im not talking about death penalty, at least for not all crimes, im talking about locking karens in cells
One guy came into my store, told me he bought a Pepis the night before, but left it in his car, and asked if he could exchange his warm Pepis for a cold one... I told him no, ofc. Like, he said okay and went on with his day, so at least he wasnt Karening.
To answer your question on if people who thought homosexuality was a choice but they themselves were bisexual, but they grew up in such a brainwashed society that they didn’t know that gay was even a thing until 13 and thought liking guys and girls was just still being straight. It happens a lot. It happened to me and my sister, and we’re both bisexual but didn’t realize it until way later in life cause of the social group that we were brought up in.
Or aces, Same Logic AS with bis If you are equally unattracted to both and think ITS the Same for everyone, IT you can Chose WHO you are pretending to BE attracted to
Honestly, as someone who has two caregivers, I would have appreciated that when signing forms as a child. I do call them "mom" and "dad", but I know they aren't my parents and I introduce them as "the people who adopted me".
