Capitalistic Vampires in Suits (They're bad. They own Aetna health insurance as of 2019 and therefore can control their own costs/profits at will. They're playing ball with themselves, setting the prices and negotiating with themselves for pay off)— Hope hippy (@hopekelpie) October 24, 2022
This question doesn’t make sense in my case. I coded on Commodore computers as a kid. I got a history degree in college. Then I fixed motorcycles. Then I did fine art photography. Then I made web sites. Then I got more into coding. I’ve used Adobe apps for almost 30 years. https://t.co/LV2FbTYMY4— Ken Kocienda (@kocienda) October 23, 2022

Narcissistic parents demand their children define their sense of self worth. The pressure is an invisible chain the child carries while doing anything to get love from their parent who doesn’t even love themselves.— Dr. Nicole LePera (@Theholisticpsyc) October 19, 2022
We’ve all heard the ugly things three of my colleagues said on the infamous tapes. It is also important to remember what they did. The legislation they killed, stalled or weakened. The laws and programs they stopped that would've helped people. The bad policies they passed.🧵— Mike Bonin (@mikebonin) October 19, 2022

OS built for creative flow—reinvented clipboard, content over apps, easier asset sharing, browser as part of OS.— Andy Allen (@asallen) October 10, 2022
The sad part here is, whether we like it or not, we’ve all been lumped into “average” by merely having the option btwn 2 choices. There is no OS for the design-oriented person or the minimalist or the tinkerer. None of us are “average” and thus all let down in our own way.— Andy Allen (@asallen) October 17, 2022

If you were “mature for their age” you might have been parentified. Parentification is when a child is made to fill an adult role. This is an “invisible” trauma that has life long impact. HERE’S WHY: 🧵— Dr. Nicole LePera (@Theholisticpsyc) October 16, 2022
Parentification is an extremely common family dynamic where children are expected to: manage their parents emotions or issues (most common is marital problems), take care of the home & siblings on a regular basis, or act as a peer to a parent.
Children adapt quickly to this role. They learn they must betray their own needs, desires, & emotions to keep the connection to a parent.
Many children feel a fierce sense of loyalty to the parent thats parentifying them.
They want to fix, rescue, & protect that parent. It’s a true role reversal.

The use of fear to control children is so ubiquitous that most adults don’t even realise they are doing it. They’d never describe what they are doing that way. But in so many different ways, the children feel it. Here’s what it looks like. 1/— Naomi Fisher (@naomicfisher) October 14, 2022

Witnessing your parents have a dysfunctional marriage has a deep impact. You didn’t learn open communication, emotional support, or healthy ways to get your needs met. As an adult, learning these skills should be a priority.— Dr. Nicole LePera (@Theholisticpsyc) October 15, 2022
