I _could_ live on my own, but I would be setting myself backward in terms of finances.

I'm young enough that it's not horrible not being able to date as easily.

ultimately what i need is a better job

work on that then, being at the family home will help you not fall through the cracks while trying to do that.

I have my disagreements with family, but being here is also a tremendous help.

Well, seems she's not around to make peace with.

I really wanted to be able to apologize for what I said, but I don't think I really can.

Ultimately, I've done nothing wrong, and I just want to get along, not agree.

Really wish I was just wrong.

saaaame

for me it was a political convo and i made a bad comparison and people got mad

She?

In this case it was abortion. She has had an abortion, and her mother is pro-life. Her mother is also a very controlling person, and is constantly scheming to control the behaviour of people around her (and she is also somewhat religious, in a particularly hypocritical way), so I suspect that is why my mother believes there is _no_ other motivation for pro-life lines of thought except a desire to control women, and hypocritical theocracy.

So when I try to explain to her that not every pro-life person is "just anti-abortion", or in it to control _her_, she gets very defensive.

Because to her it is personal.

Oh, your mother lol

Yeah, I pussyfooted around, but it's hard to hide.

compare it to safe injection sites?

Well, I'm sure she could

But I think her political agreement with that narrative is contingent on her personal issues with her mother.

That is, if one went, then she probably wouldn't insist on adopting the whole narrative.

She might have a more healthy state of mind.

That's just my impression of course, maybe I'm wrong and I'm just so blind that I can't see the obvious.

I am, after all, just a young lad.

if I may? I feel like i'm interupting
