Kiddos

I thought it was odd that my father-in-law referred to my mother-in-law as "mom". They eventually divorced. Clearly something was off there.

"Mackenna Brianne! Come back right now!"
"Tanner Ewan! Please put that back."

Haha I didn't realize until I read this that this also annoys me, and had never thought about why parents do this but this is totally why.

There's a seemingly new kind of parent who is overly obsessed with naming and really into the names they picked and critiquing or admiring other people's kids names. I have encountered it online and occasionally in person. These are 100% the people yelling "Roxanna Marie!" at the playground.

In my experience, those parents are yelling names like Ryder, Chase, or Blaze.

I’ve heard “snatch” used in reference to a body part, but not a body type. What type of body is snatched?

Carceral.
I had to look up the meaning when it kept being used in a webinar I had to watch for work.

I am all for protecting and supporting trans people and I agree with this. These are stupid terms and I refuse to use them.
