  • Novels are art. English teachers are not teaching you how to write as an art form. This is because our schools are designed to make good little worker bees. They are teaching you language so that you can then go on to learn technical writing. Now, I do think they should split the two apart, and let kids experiment and have fun with writing. That does not mean that they are wrong. Technical writing requires precision and a strict adherance to rules. It is the same concept as it being entirely fine to have a bit of fun when painting a mural, but not when you’ve been hired to paint someones house.

  • Ehhh, I kinda have to push back on this a bit here. I’m 100% on board that this lady is a wacko and monster, and that women should be able to abort as many babies as they damn well please, to be clear. It’s just that from these peoples perspective it’s a baby right? I’m pretty sure someone murdering a newborn would be treated more harshly than a typical murderer. So if we are looking at it from the weirdos perspective we have to look at it as a baby murder. Not just a normal murder. Now I might be wrong about the specifics of baby murder. I’m no lawyer. But I thought it relevant to bring up.




  • You are right. I phrased that improperly. I should have said that those things can help. I was wrong to frame it as if it was a complete solution for everyone. I didn’t mean to speak for others experiences with their own mental health, and if they feel medication is what works best for them then I support them in taking it.
