This post has been stuck in my head since I saw it two days ago, and I think it's on to something. The cultural power of "jovial fat white ethnic goofy dad" (and similar types of guy) going "ah, they're alright, let 'em do their thing" and showing up with a genuine smile shouldn't be underestimated.

Itโs sad that people will stand their ground no matter who stands with them. Case in point, if youโre not a fascist and you see fascists standing with you, you need to take a moment and ask yourself why? What is it about you that is supporting a fascist position? Not enough people do that today.

He texted me this after exploding at me earlier today relationship We've been together for a few years, and it hasn't always been easy. His new obsession is accusing me of cheating, he's basically never let me have friends, so idk who I can even cheat on him with, I have to be home by 8pm every night and he's locked my phone away before, so idk what else to do to prove to him. I'm scared of how he acts, the pain and marks,but he says he's going to stop, just am starting to think maybe it's not safe anymore, I think the reason I haven't done or said anything yet is because he controls everything, the finances, what I wear, the food, he has the car...like how did my life become like this, I'm so confused and at this point I need clarity, like is he just mad and this is normal? Ever since my mom died, who was the last connection to my family, he's taken more and more and asks for more and more fr
