My kids have their own anxieties. I don't put mine on them, but they are aware of the world around Archived Message
Posted by Taz  on April 17, 2025, 13:59:56, in reply to "Do your kids pick up on your anxiety, or do you think you do a good job of hiding it from them?"
Them.
But instead of addressing the issue here, I like how you try to turn it on me.
I'd call you a cunt like tiki does, but you lack depth and warmth.  Previous Message I mean, as a parent, it’d be my goal that they don’t pick up on it and start sharing my anxieties. Previous Message Maga people attacking me or one of my children in a public bathroom or worse? Nah, no effects. I'm living in constant anxiety, but my groceries are about the same cost. Previous Message
I'm in a rare county where Harris outperformed Biden so I wanna see if things/moods are different elsewhere. And I also realize a lot of the nonsense the administration is doing is going to have major repercussions in the future. But for now prices are relatively the same, but for the constant steady climb, and everything is chugging along.
On the other hand, we are now 87 days past the inauguration and I have still yet to see a single positive improvement either, as though it's inconceivable to throw in a single token benefit for folks. Am I missing anything there?
