Hey everyone. I've decided I'm practicing my drawing skills and will be doing one a day. If you have any suggestions please tell me. Nothing to complicated right now please. Here's the one from today

@ayeejuju What it would be good for is electronics...and that's about it

1 week left Before the plushie is gone forever! 😈

Wait, so the MPs largely voted against it and yet its still being implemented? The fuck is the point in voting at this point

"Stare at a wall" is so apt bc there is literally nothing for kids to do here anymore. Parks are for young children, so teens get chased out, everything is super expensive so you can't go on a day out, and there's precious little nature left to explore. Thats all you can do.

@pokemon_daily Except for the fact that he finally dies in the finale, whatever force having kept him alive finally deeming that he'd atoned.

i vibe with this

@ElianaMiqo I'd like to make her a mother.

Mommy Catte 💚

@CouchNish Yeah, not true. People still talk about it, just not with as much outrage, as the government shifted it from being mandatory to optional. I still think it's bad. It's a slippery slope from digital ID to china's social credit system, and gives the government to much power.

For anyone wondering, it’s only been a positive thing in Aus. No one even talks about it anymore which can only mean the kids don’t care. The ones desperate for it will find workarounds, but the majority have found better things to do with their spare time.

@TheAkoFiles It's about controlling narratives and indoctrinating people into a certain way of thinking. Digital ID has been hacked, and abused innumerable times, and is a very slippery slope. Just look to China with their social credit systems. That started out as mere digital ID itself.

My first instinct was to support the UK’s social media ban for under 16s. Protecting children from grooming, exploitation and harmful content seems like common sense. But I’m seeing a lot of opposition to it, so I’m genuinely curious as to why? One thing making me second guess is that platforms like bluesky are exempt, while at the same time there’s a push to let 16 year olds vote. To me that looks less like child protection and more like controlling where young people get their information. Interested to hear other perspectives.

@VeraSuccubus But you're free to see me however you wish. For once a person's mind is made up, unless confronted with absolute evidence, it is almost impossible to change it. Just take care V. You've got a good head on your shoulders. Just don't let it get lost in the crowd.

@VeraSuccubus If anything, I'm disappointed that you'd think so little of me. You know I would not attack someone for no reason. And Deme has not done anything to warrant an attack from me. All I've done is criticise her and Chibis behaviours over the course of the discourse. Nothing more.

Deme, the VTuber, has BPD, borderline personality disorder. It's something I have relatively intimate knowledge of, as my sister has BPD, and I had a coworker whose wife has BPD. They have intense, rapidly shifting emotions with fear of abandonment, along with huge defensive responses. They have the uncanny ability to always see themselves as the victim, no matter what the context is or the circumstances, and due to the impulsivity in their "defense," they can become quite unhinged. People with BPD also have solidly black and white thinking, seeing the world in a us vs them mentality, which is how she can justify her vile attack against Chibi. These people practically never take accountability, fault, or anything, often blaming everyone else except themselves. They will frequently engage in DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender). They will deny the wrongdoing and then attack the person raising the concern, often in a screaming, emotionally volatile tone, and then reverse the original instigator as the victim. They can often "mask" their symptoms in a public setting for a while, often for many years, but after enough stressors mount, they crack and that mask slips off. She can blame it all on PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) all she wants, but her behavior is textbook BPD... the same kind of toxic behavior my sister displayed, and the same stories from my coworker with the BPD wife. Some of the stories include ones like the BPD wife intentionally harming herself, often seriously enough to be hospitalized, only to blame it on the husband, or even reframing it because the "husband" was emotionally abusive. Similarly, my sister has self-harmed on multiple occasions only to escape discipline from my parents, for fear she might escalate. My sister's husband was also blamed for all the "ruination" that "he" caused against her. The coworker and my sister's husband both shared the same phenotype. Quiet, reserved, nice, and harmless... but you can tell behind all of it, they were deeply in love but also deeply scared of their spouse... not knowing when the next blowup is going to be. The Simps for women with BPD can be just as toxic, as their pull during the good moments can be legitimately magnetic, and they form strong parasocial bonds with creators such as her. People with BPD, when they are happy, are very charismatic, charming, and very warm... almost a complete mirror reverse of the depth of their toxic downward spiral. The simps become blinded by her toxic nature, reinforce her DARVO attacks, and so many idealize women with mental illnesses. "That crazy chic" is the trope that so much of the simp economy is catered to. TLDR... Stay away from people with BPD. They are dangerous and will often ruin your life, even through a parasocial lens, and treatment often has limited success.

@VeraSuccubus + be used to excuse behaviours, like torrets. My "Deme doesn't have that" comment, was saying she doesn't have torrets. You're defending her against nothing. Your arguments from this point onwards are only reiterating things I've already said.

@VeraSuccubus Okay, V, in the post before the one you responded to, I said, and I quote, "I'm not saying that's what Deme is doing". As in, I'm not saying saying that she hides behind her disorder. In the post you responded to, I was acknowledging that there are disorders out there that can+

@Keir_Starmer Get fucked you communist psychotic twit. All you want is to control and indoctrinate young and impressionable minds.

We are banning social media access for under 16s. These days kids must find their feet in a world where technology intrudes into every area of their life. I just can’t let that go on anymore. So we’re giving children their childhoods back.

@VeraSuccubus For the record, I know that there are some disorders where people literally can't help their actions. Torrets being the biggest one there. But that's a different situation. They don't have a chance to think about how their actions will affect people. Deme doesn't have that.

@VeraSuccubus + people do that and I won't stand for it. Your actions are your own, so take responsibility for them regardless. Now, I'm not saying that this is what Deme is doing. What I am saying is that if she does do it, I'm going to call her out for it.

@VeraSuccubus + The ones that help rehabilitate people and gibve them skills that will help them reintegrate into society. Treated them with humanity, but remove them from being a potential danger to society.

@VeraSuccubus Blaming someones actions on a mental disorder is the same line of logic that lets killers back onto the streets. If they are such a danger, they should be put away in a humane environment, away from people they can easily hurt. Like those...I believe they're Norwegian prisons. +
