Gonna let this one speak for itself, but to put it in a nutshell,  :goonthink: posts a thread whining about his parents, whom he and his brother(both ostensibly "adults")live with, rent free. I think he was expecting  :madgoon: but got  :hank: instead. Enjoy.

Quote from: Benny the Snake
So a little bit of background. My parents are devout Christians. Not going to say which specific denomination. Me and my brother are adults. We still live with our parents and neither of us are employed. I just graduated college and I'm in an internship while my brother is still studying. Both our mom and dad have made it clear that they don't want any form of media that could be considered against the Bible in our house, but for the longest time we've maintained a sort of unspoken truce. As long as we keep it to ourselves and away from the family, they tolerate it. I can't watch an R-rated movie on the TV in the living room, but I can watch it on my laptop away from everyone else. That sort of thing. Moving on.

On this night, my brother, who I will call Danny, was watching some TV show. I think it was Chicago Fire. Well, one particular scene included two women kissing eachother. My mom was doing work on the family computer next to her and saw the scene. Since homosexuality is, according to my parents, a sin, she demanded my brother to turn it off. Danny refused and things escalated. He insults her, she gets belligerent, and then she rushes after him to take away his cellphone. The two of them rush into my room where I'm typing away something for my blog and she starts getting violent. My dad comes in to hold her back and I threaten to call the police if she doesn't calm down. My mom retreats to the living room while Danny stews away here in the room.

Now the underlying issue is, besides our choices in media consumption, financial issues. My brother alone owes Mom about a thousand dollars in credit card bills. Money is tight and Dad is receiving unemployment benefits while doing part-time work. Mom is working as a teaching assistant while taking classes to earn her credentials. Since none of us make an income, we are unable to contribute significantly into groceries or rent. So the whole culture clash between our parent's conservative views on morality and our more liberal sense on what media we consume was ultimately the trigger to the larger stresses of financial uncertainty.

Now here's the thing. My mom has threatened and demanded us to throw out anything we hold on to that is sinful in nature before. The last time was a giant freak out when she saw me watching porn on my computer. She went as far as to threaten to throw my computer out, stop paying for internet, throw the TV out, etc. I counter with telling her that I'll press charges of theft and property destruction. She turns around and tells me she can have me thrown out of the house. Dad, while not as belligerent, more or less agrees with her. To put it simply, I live in a house where my family wants to censure what we can read, watch, and listen to in this house and doesn't want us holding anything that would be deemed offensive to their beliefs. Since this whole thing started over a lesbian kissing scene, you can pretty much figure out their views on what's offensive.

And that's pretty much our situation. I collect comics and a substantial number of them are mature-rated indie series stored away in boxes. I can see that over the horizon, my parents are going to go thru my collection and demand that I throw them out. Goons, this collection has been done over a couple of years and as childish as it may sound, there's a real sentimental and monetary value to them. I love comics. I love reading them and collecting them. As much as I am in no position to live independently, I still feel I have a right to buy, consume, and own whatever media I chose. And for them to destroy or throw it out would be what I feel is destruction of personal property. But ultimately they have the leverage of this being their place and the ability to throw us out if they choose. What do we do, Goons? Do we rent a place to hide our books, games, and movies away? Should we confront them about all this? Neither of us can move out at the moment or rent a place together, so we're dependent on the lodging, food, and utilities that our parents provide. What should we do?
 
EDIT #1: both me and Danny are actively seeking employment. We're also contributing for groceries and the phone bill thru meager savings. My internship is for a political campaign that, while unpaid, does look promising for connections and networking.

EDIT #2: Yeah I sound like a winny teen for thinking "my stuff!" first before "move out as soon as I can". With no employment, I'm not going to invest in a place to stay in right now. Nor a car because I want regular employment for upkeep (gas, repairs, etc.) I've kinda resigned myself that I'm going to stay here for a while.

I could have bolded the whole thing, really. Most goons are telling him to sack up and move out, but there are a few who feel the pain of his first world problems:

Quote from: Manifest Despair" post="412070010
Let them know that when they reach old age and can no longer take care of themselves, thus relying on you, that you'll throw out their bibles/jesus paintings. Praying will also be forbidden.


Quote from: Professor Dog" post="412070239
You mention the police/pressing charges a couple of times in your post. Have you ever felt the need to do so?

Also, have you and your family sat down and talked about your living arrangements or is it just informal (except for the whole no lesbos thing). By sat down and talked, I mean worked out what their expectations are, your expectations are, and so on.

Quote from: Moridin920" post="412072054
Yeah I don't think freaking out to the point of someone having to threaten to call the police to get you to calm down really falls under the category of "parents trying to tell their kids to move out but in the wrong way."

Nice Christian behavior, by the way. The most devout always seem like they have the biggest axe to grind. I feel sorry for any kids she might teach in the future who are different.


I don't think watching TV constitutes a significant drain on resources. For all you know he pirates his media and the financial cost is zero. Also, 'you don't deserve entertainment or relaxation, bootstrap your way to success and don't take time for yourself until you are there.' He said his comics are worth money because he's accumulated his collection over time, not that he spends a bunch on them currently.


\/\/\/ Well he already finished college, and jobs are tight. He's in an especially shitty situation because all the minimum wage jobs you'd recommend he can just "get whenever he wants, just walk down the McDonalds!" (which is bullshit by the way, jobs are fucking hard to get in this economic climate period) likely wouldn't hire him because he's too overqualified. College degree people taking jobs out of desperation will walk the second they get a better offer and managers know that.

Also, nowhere does he say his mom is doing a disproportionate amount of chores.


Quote from: Moridin920" post="412072137
Again, he isn't saying he's spending all his money on comics. He isn't even saying he's spending ANY money on comics. All he said is he has a collection that has monetary value and that his parents will want to throw away. In fact, he hasn't really said anything at all about the chores he does, if he is searching for a job but unable to find one, etc.

It really isn't that weird to see a college grad with no immediate job prospects living with his parents again for a while. Yeah, his brother owes his parents money but that doesn't mean shit in regards to the OP's responsibilities.

He has the right to not have his property smashed and thrown away, and to not be screamed at regardless of what you may think about "haha lazy goon," or "lol YOUR rights :rolleyes:" I'd be pretty pissed if someone started screaming at me because something 'immoral' appeared on TV, which I have no control over whatsoever, unless he was playing a DVD or something he'd seen before.


I literally was broke for a semester in college and had to pay for gas/food all off my credit card, hoping my financial aid would come through. It never did for various stupid administrative reasons, but basically I maxed out my $1000 credit card. The difference is I just never paid it instead of getting my parents to.

\/\/\/ Yeah let's be respectful about beliefs involving screaming and violence towards your children because the naughty women kissed on TV. Let's also make unfounded assumptions and collectively jerk off over the goon stereotype you've apparently all jumped to because he owns comic books.

Quote from: Moridin920" post="412072271
Danny sounds like a dumbass sure. Remember though, that the 'truce' was broken (sounds like this family has bad communication to begin with) because a scene appeared his mom didn't approve of on a TV show, which Danny had no control over. Unless Danny had previously seen that episode of whatever-the-fuck, how could he in ANY way know that scene was going to be in there? So, when the mom then freaks and demands he shuts it off, you can see why a reasonable person would think "dude, that was in no way my fault and she's being a dick." And then the argument escalates. Plus, I just reread the OP and saw that Danny is in school, too. So, it's not like he's literally just being a shitbag doing nothing.

My issue is that there's total lack of communication and respect, but everyone is immediately white knighting this mom, when honestly, in any other circumstance other than parent/adult son we'd all be thinking "what a religious nutjob." She came into the OP's room, who was doing nothing wrong, to get violent with his brother, and his dad had to hold her back and OP had to threaten to call the cops to get her to chill out. These aren't actions that should be praised in any case. That's some shit I'd expect to see on Cops.


To me it seems like he made it clear he's unable to contribute because he has no income, not because they have other shit to do that's more important, like jerking off to hentai all day long. He has an internship, which from other threads you can learn means "be our slave for a while doing shit work not related to your field for no pay to maybe get a real job. Capitalism, bitch." Maybe that blog is a means to supplement income; he certainly wouldn't be the only one making money off AdSense.

An internship can literally be like a job. So unless you want him to work a regular job (which doesn't pay him) AND get another one (which he will probably not be able to find for a while) JUST SO he can not get screamed at by his mom, I don't really know what you want.

\/\/\/ Yeah but by the same token, Danny's not going to want to turn it off politely if he hears "What was that? WAS THAT TWO WOMEN...... KISSING EACH OTHER?! Danny. Don't you KNOW homosexuality is a SIN? What is wrong with you? Why do you have to watch such filth in our home? Turn it off, RIGHT NOW!!! Jesus SAVE this child!"


Quote from: Quixotic" post="412077735
You should probably balance the praise your family is getting for supporting you against the fact that your mother at least is a violent, controlling homophobe and set all your sights and plans on getting out, out, out. I don't support the stigma that adult children shouldn't live with their parents (lots of cultures do this, and it's perfectly acceptable, even when you get married/have your own kids), but the environment you're being given is toxic, even while they are financially supporting you and your brother.

Quote from: Benny the Snake" post="412077426
Well right now I'm dropping my comics hobby in favor for paying my parents more on groceries.
Which is why I said in the op it's more sentimental value.  I love reading comics and I really enjoy the medium.  Now don't get me wrong, I am willing to part with it.  Just now I think that it'd serve me better to store them in a locker or something. 

I'm going to talk to my parents about it and assure them I'm looking for work and that I'm going to move my comics, etc. away from the place if I can' negoitate anything else.  Fair's fair. 

Thanks goons.  I appreciate the swift ass kicking I'm getting from each and every one of you.  I came here for the reality check and the helpful advice and you guys delivered.  Thanks a bunch.

Need the :backpedal: emote here.

No, your mom "kinda" fucked you over, because of that. Normal adults in a normal relationship don't physically abuse each other. Perhaps your mom should have thought about the consequences like a responsible parent.

I seriously hope she's never brought that scenario back up and placed the blame on you. If she does, you need to make her aware that you weren't the one beating people.

I'm wondering how an Eng Lit BA. Has to do with office work, or Law?  Where did you plan on working whilst you were taking all those courses?

But really, how much. Do you spend on weed and comics in a month?

Eng Lit is clearly a major that offers plentiful of employment opportunities. What a fucking idiot.

Quote from: BrainParasite" post="412083728
I have two theories on this. 
The first is that the distribution of wealth is largely arbitrary.   Hard work plays a part in your income, but so do luck, aptitude, inherited wealth, when you are born, and a good education.  Ideally, in a society with as much abundance as the US, the OP's basic material needs would be taken care of as long as he was making an attempt at productive work.  In the absence of such safety nets, I think it's a parent's duty to pick up that responsibility as much as possible.


You can also look at it as an intergenerational bargain.  The parent agrees to take care of the child until the child is self sufficient.  The child takes care of the parent when the parent is no longer self sufficient.

Quote from: Jeffrey" post="412082684
When one adult agrees to let another adult live in their home, there is an implicit contract that, while the owner makes the rules, the rules will be "reasonable". I'm not going to lay down an explicit definition of reasonable, but there are plenty of things that are over the line, including regulating what the OP does with his door closed while mom isn't there, given that it doesn't damage the property or affect her. The OP cannot change his living situation right now(though he should be setting goals and working on it, which it sounds like he is), and as sad as it is that our society doesn't provide it to all people, shelter with one's own space to do with as they wish is a basic human right. The mom is not obligated to keep providing him living quarters, but given that it is where he lives currently, he has the right to a modicum of privacy as long as he lives there.

I'm not saying he shouldn't be appreciative/help out around the house/offer to help pay for household expenses/avoid watching porn in the living room, but he has a right to human dignity in his own room, and to not live in fear of his things being destroyed.

The same would apply to a friend letting another friend crash in an extra room while they got back on their feet. It would be similarly unreasonable for them to destroy one's property.

Shelter is a basic human right. Because you would have it automatically if someone didn't take it from you.

Despite early attempts to realtalk in this thread, goons are assuring him that he's OK. And that his mother is obligated to treat him like an adult even though he is behaving like a child. It has degenerated into a circle of broken faggotry that is painful to read. He's even getting reassurance and advice from Starter Wiggin, who ate dog food for SAcred. :reagan:

Quote from: Benny the Snake
out a bit more information, and ask a very importaint question. Thanks guys for being understanding.

-I haven't asked anybody in my political internship for job positions. I've just started and I only know a handful of people: the fundraiser, the field manager, the candidate, the PR handler, and another intern. This is a special election and we're in the primary mode. I talked to Jon, the feild manager, and he told me we're going to fly under the radar untill the primaries are over and we know wether we're going to see the big show. I'm waiting untill more people come in and/or I actually have put in enough time and expirence to where I show that I'm a hard worker. If you guys think it's best, I'll start networking and asking for jobs right now.

-I don't want to get into too much detail but among other things, Danny's credit card bills include a brand new ipod and a suit to go to the homecomming dance. Some of these charges were made a long time ago and he still makes purchases on the card for stuff on Amazon. He's getting financial aid too, but it looks like he's dodging the question of wether he has money when Mom brings up that he needs to make a payment. We were all given cards under her account for school purchases. I make sure above all else to pay her in full for any purchases I make for school.

-Back when Danny had a part-time job, he bought a used car. Don't know how much he paid, but he did it before he got insurance or even a liscence. He planed to work towards both and get the car first. Well, he was let go from his job. One of the windows of the car was shattered buy a random punk. It's been a money sink, and Mom wants it sold as soon as possible so he can pay back his debt. Don't know if it's been sold or not, but as far as I'm concerened it's still sitting in a lot. This is to give you an idea about what kind of person Danny is.

-I've graduated. I'm expecting my diploma soon: a BA in English Literature with a Minor in History. I love reading, intepreting, and discussing stories, so that's why I got into English Lit. You can study what you love, or what makes money. And it's rare that you can do both.

-As far as violent incidents, outside of the first time I called the police when my mom assaulted Dad, they're haven't been any incidents betwen us (me and my siblings) and them (my parents) untill now. Me and my brother have gotten into fights before, including one time he almost broke my nose. Mom has made it clear that next time it happens, she's calling the police.

-Along with making monthly payments for the phone and groceries, I'm also doing regular chores. Vacuming the rooms, sweeping, taking out the trash, cleaining the restroom, moving things around, organizing the garage, washing and putting away dishes, helping preparing dinner etc. I'm pulling my own weight as far as what's expected of me as a resident.

-If it sounds like I'm being unreasonable and paranoid, it's because I was raised to belive the apocalypse is nigh. Every time something bad happened in the world, Dad would quote Revelations and say how the false church and the antichrist were to take over the world and subject the true belivers to all kinds of misery untill Jesus comes down to rescue us all and have the sinners burn in the lake of fire. I know way too may details about that book (the four horsemen, the seven seals, the seven trumpets, the beast with the seven heads and the ten horns, the lamb who speaks in flames, etc.) I want to make clear that they're not building a bomb shelter, but still. Ever since I could comprehend what he was saying, I have been fixated and scared beyond all reason about world events in relation to the end of the world. I can't stand apocalypse stories that use wholesale Revelations (Southland Tales, Evangelion, The Faire Queene, etc.) and to this day I've been incredibly paranoid about current events as if there was a giant hourglass running out. I can deny it all I want, but it's been imprinted deeply into my psyche.

Our big discussion is happening tonite. I've formulated "nuclear options" as a deterent and leverage in order for us to negoitate with our parents. I feel that they don't respect us as adults and as much as they belive that brining materials in for our private viewing or consumption would "undermine their faith", we should still have the right to ownership of said materials as adults. As far as I'm concerned, they're insecure in their faith. After discussing this incident with friends and a life coach, I've discussed my plans with Danny. Danny is to apologize for violating the rules of the house and insulting Mom. We are to negotiate that our privacy as adults is to be repsected, as well as our ownership of our items. I'm prepared to move my comics, etc. out into a storage unit or have a friend who's willing to hold them. However, most likely they'll want us to dispose of them. Despite that I/we own our items.

This is an importaint legal question. I'd appreciate if only those who have expirence working in the law (lawyers, police officers, etc.) were to answer.

To reitreate, I've prepared "nuclear options" purely for leverage, but I'm prepaed to see it through if I have to use it. I want to make it perfectly clear that I wouldn't have prepared them if I didn't feel justified in needing them. Here they are:

Nuclear option #1-charge Mom and Dad with theft/destruction of property. I've discussed this with the life coach and he pointed out it's still their house and that would swing the law in their favor. This would only be used if Mom and Dad demmand to have our stuff thrown out and not moved and/or they physically put their hands on them.

Nuclear option #2-charge Mom with assault against Danny. Mom's a distirbued indivdual. She's been abused as a child and she has moments where she gets beligerent and starts screaming. Rarely does she get violent, but it's happened. Such as what happened Wednesday night. This option is beyond the whole "ownership" argument: it's the fact that above all else, she was unjustified in harming my brother and deserves to face the cocnequences. If she's made it clear that the cops will be called when me and Danny fight, well she'd better be willing to be subject to her own rule. The life coach pointed out that Mom can turn around and charge Danny with domestic abuse for cursing and insulting her, but abuse trumps that.

There's a reason why I call them "nuclear options": because these are to be used only as a last resort. The ideal situation would be that we observe the rules of the house that materials deemed offensive to God can't be veiwed or shown in front of everyone, and our privacy is respected to where we can hold on to any materials and view them in our own privacy. They can't be priviy to our choices or interests because as adults, we are all expected to tolerate and respect eachother as long as none of us impose upon the other. And I feel above all else that we're being imposed by them. My plan is to use the "nuclear options" as leverage to bring my parents to negotiate if they still insist on being unreasonable. Ideally, I'd have a physical conract writen up and signed by all parties, have it noterized if possible, and copies made. This would untimately be a temporary solution untill I move out or we as siblings could all rent out something together away from them.

My question is: are said options justified? Are they legally sound? Am I being unreasonable? Should I use them? And how so?

If I had the means and resources to move out, I would have. I'd be planning to right now as we speak. But I don't. Above all else, I don't have a job. Once I secure employment and have saved enough, then I will move out. And as far as I'm concerned, I'm not just going to burn the bridges: I'm going to blow up the damn bridge and salt the earth beneath it. I'm going to make it entirely sure how I had to endure a toxic enviornment and how I despise each and every one of them (except my little sister ). I've had to endure this kind of shit for years. I take full responsibility for my actions and descisions as a person. I'm aware I've been a terrible person. I'm aware I still am. I only expect others, especially those I consider family, to hold themselves accoutable and responsible for themselves as well.

And that's the end of my megapost. Now I'm depressed. Maybe I'm too emphatic for my own good. If my ideas sound stupid, I accept that. I'm going to go keep myself busy. Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'm just very anxious and stressed for what's going to happen soon is all. Thanks everybody for being understanding and supportive. I love you all.

Holy fuck he's dumb. You're an unpaid intern for a politician; they have no fucking money to pay anyone and need all the volunteers they can get. You're part of a process that views people as numbers and games their attitudes in order to get elected into office and go back on every promise made; does this fucking fool really think that there's going to be a paid job for some 20-something fresh out of college white guy in a democratic campaign during this economy? goons are so fucking gullible.

also lol at you study what you love or what makes money. no, you find a suitable compromise. My dream job is being a high speed fighter pilot or being a park ranger or one of those awesome alaska state troopers but there's no jobs or pay involved in either of those so instead i moved on and found something else interesting. but unfortunately that won't work for our poor goon because the only thing he could possibly find interesting are reading stories of other people's activities and he just can't imagine doing anything else without being ugh miserable.

I know way too may details about that book (the four horsemen, the seven seals, the seven trumpets, the beast with the seven heads and the ten horns, the lamb who speaks in flames, etc.)

these are like details that are in every religious apocalypse movie and video game ever but of course this intelligent goon that knows better than the rest of the world is just so much more enlightened about details he probably learned from Darksiders the video game where you play one of the four hoursemen of the apocalypse.

I can't stand apocalypse stories that use wholesale Revelations (Southland Tales, Evangelion, The Faire Queene, etc.) and to this day I've been incredibly paranoid about current events as if there was a giant hourglass running out. I can deny it all I want, but it's been imprinted deeply into my psyche.

Our big discussion is happening tonite. I've formulated "nuclear options" as a deterent and leverage in order for us to negoitate with our parents. I feel that they don't respect us as adults and as much as they belive that brining materials in for our private viewing or consumption would "undermine their faith", we should still have the right to ownership of said materials as adults. As far as I'm concerned, they're insecure in their faith. After discussing this incident with friends and a life coach, I've discussed my plans with Danny.

here's the nuclear option you dumb fuck, move out of the house. so fucking naive that he thinks there's any legal or personal thing he can do that will end up with him having the upper fucking hand over his parents in their own house. why yes let me give the local constable a call, he'll surely see how irrational my mother is when she throws out my amazing spider-man comics from 1983 and make her leave her own residence! find a new life coach you retard.

This dickhead has got to be trolling or fucking around or something.  No one actually has life fucking coaches. 

Do they?

You know, I was on my way to put in time at my internship. Then I realized that the route I usually take over to the office changes on weekends. So I'm standing there at the stop. Wondering how am I going to explain to Jon, the field manager of the campaign, why I was late. Then I started thinking if I can even put on a straight face and put in time.

And then it dawned on me. It finally broke to me.

I just saw my mom, the person who gave birth to me, assualt my brother, my own flesh and blood.

I realized that I'm traumatized.

I called Jon and told him that I'm in no shape to put in time today. I told him it was family issues and he said he understood. He'd call tomorrow and we'd discuss my hours next weeek.

Now I'm sitting here in a Starbucks. Tears rolling on my face. I realize how I'm a terrible person. How as much hate and disgust I have at my family, that I'm just as bad if not worst than them. That I've reduced my life to not bettering myself. Not even survival. But a win state. I had to hold on to my belongings. I had to prepare to call the police on my mom if neccessary. I had to prepare to go to war with my own flesh and blood. Because I had to show them that I'm a better person. Because I had to win. Because I was keeping score and I fooled myself that we were all doing the same. Because my hatred was making me stronger. Because my hate, my fustrations, my bile, and my vitriol against them were all I had left. I fooled myself into thinking that way. I fooled myself into thinking I was doing this to win. I convinced myself all that.

And now I'm breaking down. Now I'm typing on my laptop to you guys completly disgusted in myself. Now I realize that I need help.

I'm going to call my uncle and ask if I can stay at his place for the night, maybe even the weekend. I can't deal with this. I can't go back home. Not now at least.

But right now I have to calm myself down. I'm staying here for an hour to think things through. I'm not going back untill I'm sure that they're not there. So I can pack some clothes and take off.

Goons, I'm sorry if I've infuriated you. I'm sorry if I've fustrated you. I'm sorry if I've wasted your time. I'll be fine. I just need to get away for a while. I'll be back in a sec.

Timeouts work so well on adult children who go off on their parents. I think many of the problems today stem from these little cunts not getting a taste of leather on their asses. Or a quick pop to the mouth when they get cunty.

Here it is

Quote
Ben, if you're still spending as much time down at the bar flirting with those girls you always expected me to remember the names of, stop going so frequently. It was 2-3+ times a week before I blocked you. You're a nice dude, but you're immature, which really isn't surprising considering your situation.

Your mother has no right physically assault you or any other person on the planet. You're her son second, and a person first. And no one should be hitting their kids anyway, what the christ.

From what I was exposed to of your thoughtprocess, you're pretty narrowly focused. A therapist might help with that, and there are therapists who will see you for very cheap. If you're as focused now on your family situation as you were on getting laid a few months ago, it's going to be taking up every waking second you aren't purposefully focusing on something else. That's not healthy. Is shit fucked up at home? Yes. Do changes need to be made? Yes. Just don't obsess over it.

Stay on your toes to make sure you're utilizing every resource available. Take unemployment if you can get it, work for your uncle if that's possible. Get over yourself. There's nothing wrong with getting assistance, I know you're intelligent enough to know that. I understand knowing something doesn't change your emotions presto-changeo, but think of it like this; if it will decrease the burden on your mom, crazy as she is, is your pride a large enough reason to not do it?

It's far more likely that your mom is stressing out over the burden of being the breadwinner on her while she's still in school and not making much money than it is that she feels it's 'shameful.' I could be wrong, obviously, but that's my guess.

You need to get out of there as soon as possible, regardless, so you can start growing up.

This half-a-sissy is saying he's so emotionally devastated from his mother's abuse that he's literally shaking and in tears, can't handle going into work and he's immediately going to call the cops and take some measures to improve things, yet he has the time and presence of mind to type out paragraph after paragraph on an internet forum while loafing around a Starbucks.   
Quote from: a man with an asymmetrical haircut
This was posted on the page before, but I was only able to catch up on this thread now. I'd like to point out that not all lesbian relationships have two vaginas, and it really sucks as a queer trans woman to hear this sort of generalization all the time.

Shit. I guess this has helped me realize my privilege even more. So that's some good come out of it.
I feel so sad for all the people who don't have a supportive environment even like SA.

Seconding this.  I thought this pun was cerebral, and "prioriteas" was a word I had never learned.  Wrong.

I looked it up on google, was all excited about a learning a new homophone, and all I got was lousy alliteration. :myecred:
