Hey Guys, just landed on this island. I met this really fat kid with glasses and his said his name was Piggy. Sorry wasnt supposed to say that! He found this really cool shell and when I blew it a bunch of boys came. Some dudes with robes and stuff was among them. The leader was this red-haired kid named Jack and he was really snobby. We decided we needed a leader and I was chosen cause I had the shell. Jack got mad so we made him the leader of his little group and called him hunters. Then we wanted to explore the island so we all left leaving a mad Piggy and the littler boys. We saw a pig and but was too scared to try and kill it, but I had to make an excuse because I was the leader. While we were exploring, we saw where the plane crashed. It was super cool you guys should have seen it. When we got back, I called a meeting and in the middle of it Jack decided it was a good idea to yell at everyone to make a fire and everyone ran after him, so I had to go as well even though I was kinda upset he took over MY meeting. We got to a good spot and Jack brought up a good idea to use Piggy’s glasses to make the fire. It made me alittle upset that Jack came up with sucha great idea and not me. I couldnt think too much on it  because I had other things to deal with. Thats all for now, see you guys later

So apparently Frankie Dylan is not enthusiastic about this Monday morning!!! Judging by the way he's leaning on his gingerbread toy he is wishing it was Christmas again. I told him Valentine's day is 10 days away and that means its #gift time. Looks like he's going to take a nap and see if he can wake up on the right side of the bed this time!!! As for me, see you all at 10AM. #dachshundlife #dachshundmom #dachshundsofinstagram #dachshundpuppy #wrongsideofthebed #bringyoursontowork #mondayblues #goingbacktobed #noadulting #fayettevillenc #lovecharmsusa #sleepydog #mondaygoaway (at Fayetteville, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtdlCfTniXc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=j0r1x3dku7e2

Arrrgh I hate being unemployed. This time it’s not by choice, but at least I get a pretty shit job consultant as part of my package. I’m feeling Unicorn Store so hard right now.

Recruiter: What are your long term goals? Me: To not be a huge disappointment. Recruiter: Ok... but part-time or full-time?

I don't want to adult today😒

When you first start anything, you don't really think about milestones until you are looking back. Sure you may hope to reach certain goals in 5, 10, 20 years.. but there are no guarantees.

Mushu was Happy Hides first rescue! We didn't get him thinking "this is our start". We rescued and rehomed dogs before this. And although all animals need rescues, reptiles called to us when Mushu showed signs of needing continued care. Rajah was right behind him. Then, the idea of being an official rescue went on from there. It's costly and an emotional rollercoaster. We don't turn off our feelings. If we can rehome a healthy, stable reptile, we will. But if not, they remain in our care for the medical support and love they need. Rescue isn't for everyone and what we do depends on donations. If donations can't cover the costs, we provide it and pay off the cost at a later date with donations. But without your help and support, we couldn't continue to make this possible. We thank you for all you do. From donations to sharing our posts and stories. We appreciate you!💗

🙏Please visit our GoFundMe or other links and remember every dollar helps! If you could share our GoFundMe with your friends, that would also be an amazing way to help us too.🥰

🌟Also, if you are a Patreon supporter, our newest surrender will be posted later. You will meet her before anyone else!🎉

My parents don't think nonbinary is real (western culture) because it never existed for us before, throughout history. When I mention in other cultures they exist, they say not our culture and it's existed throughout history. Add that to the fact the huge majority who are identifying as such are young people especially teens in high concentration (the age of rebellious youth they say) and not older people who are realising it. They say we see older gay people coming out but not nonbinary.

(My answer kind of assumes that you’re nonbinary, but all parts are still relevant even if you’re not. Just sharing the perspective I came at this ask with.)

We have a nonbinary elders / older nonbinaries tag where you may find some resources to combat your parent’s ageist, cissexist claims that there are noadult nonbinary people. You might also look through @makingqueerhistory and @queerasfact for some specific nonbinary history you could talk about.

However, I’m going to offer a bit of contrary advice here.

Have you ever heard the saying “you can’t help someone who doesn’t want to be helped”? This is an incredibly tough lesson to learn, especially regarding people you’re close to and care about. However, I have found it to be true in my life, and in fact extend this principal to other matters as well. In particular, “you cannot teach someone who is not open to learning”.

I’m so sorry. This must be so incredibly hard on you. I understand. I have been and am there myself with my own parents. But I think it’s clear from this ask that you have tried incredibly hard to share all sorts of information and knowledge with your parents, and they have refused to make any effort. They are comfortable being close-minded and discompassionate.

It’s so painful when the people close to use that we care for and only want to support and love seemingly don’t return all these feelings. It’s so painful when the people we want to share out joy and our authentic selves with close themselves off to us.

I need you to know that you’ve done nothing wrong. It’s wonderful that you’ve worked so hard to teach your parents in a way they will understand. But it’s not that you’re not researching hard enough or that you just haven’t found the right thing to say. It’s that your parents do not want to hear it, so they aren’t.

I don’t mean to say that this subject has to be complete off the table to discuss with your parents anymore. However, I do want to suggest that you start creating boundaries around this subject.

First, stop putting in all the work when your parents aren’t even trying to meet you part of the way. If they ask you for resources or they ask genuine questions, sure, speak up! If you want to continue talking with your parents, then do this when you want, not when you feel obligated to. Do it when you have the energy for it. Don’t force it. Do it when it comes up naturally. And have limits for when you say “we’ve talked in enough circles today. We’re getting nowhere in this conversation, so let’s change the subject. [Show you like] was on last night, wasn’t it? Anything exciting happen on it?”

But if you’re at all exhausted, upset, depressed, angry - anything like that and it’s only getting worse, then cut waaaaaaaay back on these “discussions”. Stop framing this as an educational opportunity (because it’s not - because that’s not how your parents are treating this) and start thinking of it as shutting down prejudice / upholding boundaries for your own health and safety. Change the subject when it comes up. Walk away if you need or if changing the subject doesn’t work.

Sometimes the best thing we can do is just not give room for prejudice or willful ignorance to be spoken in our presence. To let it be known that the things they’re saying and the actions they’re doing cannot and will not be tolerated. You can’t change everybody’s mind, as much as I wish everyone would be open to listening and learning about nonbinary people and our history and our needs.

If your parents cannot accept, respect, support, and love you as they are, then they are the ones with the problem, and they are the ones who will be losing out on getting to know and spend true quality time with you.

What a beautiful island. It was so quiet and peaceful until his piggy guy showed up. PIGGY! How funny!! I can not stop laughing at his dumb name! All he does is whine and complain about his “ass-mar” and it is soooo annoying. 🙄 He keeps saying his auntie would not want him running or having fun but there are not any adults here to tell us what to do. How spoiled is this kid? He says he would get candy all of the time from his auntie’s store.  Maybe that’s how he got his “ass-mar”! Oh how good a chocolate bar sounds right now. 🤤This heat is terrible and I am sweating like a dog. 🐶 😓 I bet that water feels good. No adults here to tell me no so it looks like I’m going to go jump in! Hopefully Piggy won’t follow me! #weirdguy #funnynames #noadults #freedom
