actually, that won't be necessary.

quote:

one time when i was around 12 years old i visited my mom's family on the east coast. we gathered around and some dude pulled out a picture of this girl and was like "this is my ex". me wondering why someone would carry around a picture of their ex girlfriend but being 12 and wanting to fit in and hearing that exes are bad said "ugh gross!" to which my mom replied "that's his girlfriend! what the gently caress!"

i learned two things that day

1. people on the east coast refer to their current partners as exes and
2. the east coast sucks

i have done and told a lot of far worse poo poo but this for some reason is so cringey that this confession is the first time i've told it. i haven't even told my therapist. thanks for reading. west coast best coast. peace.

Guess I'm wondering where exactly this happened. I'm in northern NY and I've never heard somebody call their current SO their ex in that way, but unless you believe the hype about the St. Lawrence being the 4th coast, it maybe doesn't count.

OK, since you've forced the issue by not telling us already (sheesh!):

Did you suck it in the dream?
Did you tell the dream to your husband after you woke up?
Did your husband then text you the same question in real life?

Psychic or not, you can guess the next question.

Sounds to me like it was either

1) that guy had broken up with the woman and then gotten back together and was making a dumb joke, and you didn't know that detail

2) your mom has some weird hangup about not bad-mouthing exes because they were once a significant other or something

I'd say both are about equally likely and equally dumb

The mom probably said "that was" not "that is" and the dumb loving kid misheard or she mumbled it or something. Like even if they split up saying from a picture that she's loving gross is kind of a dig at that guy.

Semi-anonymous alt-account confession, I sent in some kind of drunk missive about my struggles with gender identity to some iteration of this thread so long ago that I couldn't find it via search, and now like.....6? 8? years later I'm suddenly and unexpectedly out as trans to like 95% of my social circle and things are still kind of weird but also awesome. I feel super good (which is somehow kind of terrifying, ngl) and everyone has been surprisingly supportive and awesome, even people I'd specifically kinda worried about in the past.

Now for something completely different:

quote:

This is absolutely petty and dumb and probably going to be really stream of conscious so I can just send it out on a lunch break but

I really hate how sensitive I am to political stuff. It doesn't matter if it's something I agree with or disagree with, if I'm getting exposed to it in anything other than the right mood and the right context it just gets me feeling really uncomfortable and upset.

this is an anonymous confession so i can be totally honest, I'm a gay gender confused (that's a whole confession in and of itself) queer rear end furry who's friends with lots of other queer furries and spends most of his online socializing time with said queer furries, and it very much is something that comes up a lot in that whole community.

like the thing in particular that just set it off today and sparked this whole 'oh yeah isn't there an anonymous confession thread on SA i should yell about this in' was a drawing a friend did of their twink furry character doing a sick kickflip in a skirt, showing off he own dick and balls underneath it, but the underside of his board had 'DEFUND THE POLICE' written on it along with a pig wearing a cop hat

and it's like. it's intentionally supposed to be a bit silly and a bit absurd but that mixing of genuinely real, very current, very controversial social issues with fiction and lewdness just puts me in such a deeply anxious and uncomfortable place for reasons i don't even fully know. i don't have any negative or traumatic experiences with any of the issues being casually referenced, it's strictly just that they are controversial and political.

It's like, I'm an adult. I have a job, an actual real career job. I vote and engage in society and manage my own life and meet every little criteria for 'a functioning adult', I should be mature enough to be able to engage with this kind of casual political discourse among people I choose to interact with, and especially on topics I for the most part even agree on. Especially when the only people I see crying about political issues in casual settings are right wing shitheads.

making pornographic furry art with a "defund the police" message on it puts you in a weird uncomfortable state because it's stupid edgelord poo poo that is trivializing real serious things that happen to actual people. it's equivalent to that picture of the jews getting thrown out of warsaw with rainbow dash photoshopped in.

it also doesn't help advance the idea that furry stuff is a lifestyle and not just a sexual fetish

You said it yourself already—you take issues of social justice seriously, and furrydom is just fun and games. Mixing the two is perhaps a quixotic attempt to put a sexual fetish on the same level as justice reform, and this might risk bringing the latter down to the level of the former (for some)?

It would be like if every video on PH ended with, "*GULP* ahhh, and remember: there is no ethical consumption under capitalism!" Seems to make a mockery of a serious message.

This came in a little while back. I was hoping there would be something happier or silly to post with it but there isn't.

quote:

Sometimes I secretly wish my abuser wasn't here.

She makes everyone miserable, including herself. She doesn't even seem happy. She just makes everyone and everything worse and doesn't seem like she has a vested interest in changing that no matter how many communities she gets expelled from. If she cared about changing, things would be different, but it's been years and she's still just as bad as ever if not worse.

This is a horrible thing to think about because she is my sister. I don't know how to cope with these feelings or the damage she did to me. My parents still try to include her and I see how miserable she makes them. I'm tired of pretending like it isn't happening. I'm tired of talking to my mom about her like she didn't severely damage me and make my childhood hell.

It's not like I want her to die, but everyone would be happier in a parallel universe where she doesn't exist. I don't want to feel like this, because it's an awful feeling to have, and I don't like the idea that the world is better off without some people in it.

It sounds like the abuse is ongoing, but I hope I'm misunderstanding some of the tense shifts. gently caress parents that allow one child to torment the others.

Surprise! somebody sent something in. On the one hand, it isn't juicy - on the other, it's pretty nice anyway.

quote:

A few years ago I was a raging transphobe. I even got banned for posting some awful transphobic poo poo and refusing to let it drop.

Well, some of the replies I got planted a few seeds of doubt in my mind that I was really as secure in my gender identity as I thought I was. I spent a long time just thinking about it, trying to figure out who I really felt like deep inside, and even though I eventually decided that my masculine identity fit me well enough, I felt loving awful about the views I used to hold, having kinda been there myself.

I'm so sorry to anyone I hurt. I know I can never really make it up to you, but believe me when I say I regret everything I said back then.
