@HalfwayPost Sounds like my sis with stage 6 dementia. Today, as she exhibited the very severe “dementia shuffle” that she has had for a long time, she said aloud, but to herself “walk normal, walk normal.”

BREAKING: Donald Trump’s doctors are reportedly begging him to start using a walker daily, and pointing out that using a walker is less embarrassing than falling down a flight of stairs on live television and breaking both his hips.

Undiagnosed ADHD symptom nobody talks about: The need to have subtitles on even when the audio is crystal clear, because if you don’t see the words, your brain treats dialogue like distant whale songs, beautiful but incomprehensible.

@EddieMakesGames YouTube reminds me of shopping in a souk in the Middle East years and years ago... If you so much as "Hmmm"ed at something, eight people shoved something exactly like it in your face and started yelling out prices and compliments. Gets so I sign out before searching on YouTube.

@McJuggerNuggets I'm so deeply sorry you and your wife are going through this. I pray a shield of love and comfort over the two of you, and for the baby you are grieving. May God surround you with HIS love, HIS comfort, and HIS hope. I pray you will be comforted in this time of loss and grief.💔

My wife's heart has been shattered since the amniocentesis results (which are definitive btw), yet it has only gotten worse. These last couple weeks have been the hardest of her life...it's times like these where you want to be able to depend on your family for love and support. This video is from the evening after the procedure. My parents drop off an extremely thoughtful gift basket and show unconditional love and support...meanwhile, her family has been nowhere to be found. Some even going as far as joining in on the bandwagon hate PUBLICLY, kicking her while she's down at her lowest point. She has received text messages from her family accusing me of abuse and that I'm brainwashing her...issuing ultimatums that she needs to LEAVE ME IMMEDIATELY. Audacious shit that will have your head-spinning because of the delusion and lack of consideration. Downright disgusting gossip and shit-talking amongst important people in her life as if she's not even blood. No backbone, just cowardice as they accuse me of making the decision and controlling/manipulating her over all the years of being together. We've put up with a lot of shit, but when it's your own family exercising their bitterness and turning their backs when it matters the most, it really reveals everything about their character. Hell, I've even seen the worst of "friends" publicly joining in on the crusade despite full-well knowing that behind closed doors, they would've made the same decision. I don't relish in sharing these things because it only furthers a divide, but when you're MIA, complicit and offensive during the hardest times of our life then you will never deserve to be there when it's good. My wife is the sweetest and strongest woman I know, the last thing she deserves is to be treated this way. My heart goes out to all of the women who have had to keep their abortions private for fear of judgment from friends/family, it's the last thing you should be dealing with when you're already confronting the hardest/worst of times. This is the sad reality. It's why I will continue to speak out. It's why sharing is better than hiding. The truth may be hard, but at least you're living freely. Do NOT ever let the opinions of others define your life or else you will be living a life that's not YOURS. ❤️

Tell me your most neurodivergent little habit. Not the polished one. The weird one. The one where other people go "Why do you do that?” and you go "Because the universe demanded it.”

@Riotswimbananas Youre asking for a media made by men for other men to spend their money on to harness what its like to be a mother? Beyond mother bear tropes, its probably a game made by or for women. A niche within a niche. Quality varies heavy with this. Sims is quite the example.

Honest question: I can’t think of any other video game where you play as a mother. Are there any? New God of War is the first I can think of.

@MJRobinson1571 @McJuggerNuggets They never said it did, and they never said they didn't. I've known some truly beautiful people with Downs and am grateful to have them in my life. But every family has to decide what they can handle, and they're allowed to make the best decision for themselves and their family.

@McJuggerNuggets Adiagnosis of Down syndrome does not diminish a person’s value, dignity or right to life. Every human being deserves love, support and protection, regardless of their chromosomes.

This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21. The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided. I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley. She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained. Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000. When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed. Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism): 50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective. I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life. The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk. We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21. This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast. You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change. To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward. As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice. It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome. Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️

@gothxm_xx @Tyger_GG @IGN Baiting, breadcrumbing, lots of ways to describe the way they've overpromised and underdelivered GTA6. The latest straw was pushing the release from May all the way out to November. Going for that sweet Christmas cash? Who knows. I'm not as interested as I was two years ago.

@gothxm_xx @Tyger_GG @IGN With modding so prevalent, gaming manufacturers, especially the large ones, know that they can release incomplete games, and the missing community will fix all the problems for them, and the game still sells. Look at Bethesda and EA to start with.
