I wondered the same thing when landing in Salt Lake City for a connecting flight.

Oh, geez. I grew up in the US of the '80s and '90s and was talking to a friend about all the abortion clinic bombings we had back then--like not just murdering doctors (although that did happen), bombings--and how, thinking back on it, that was a super fucked up normal to grow up with.

This is why childhood trauma is so damaging. You have nothing to compare to so whatever you experience as a child becomes the foundation of your mind.

Babies scream because whatever they're experiencing is literally the worst thing that's ever happened to them.

Whenever I see a toddler with a cold or the flu, I feel extra bad for them. They're all congested, sneezing, coughing, possibly pinwheeling in the bathroom... a lot of them have never felt worse than that, and it's like, "I'm so sorry. You've got decades more of this to look forward to, little friend"

Advanced verbal skills on that toddler 😂

Not necessarily. Speach and language develops at different rates in kids and I can totally see a moderately advanced two year old using a complete simple sentence.

Kinda compliments how they can also throw a nuclear tantrum for absolutely no reason where you, the parent, may also have zero context for what’s going on.

Have you ever missed your lunch nap? If that doesn't make you scream....

I vastly preferred the lack of context. The context is extremely depressing lol.

Always remember to add "lol" to the end of dark and depressing statements to make people less worried about you lol

That's just how we depressed people roll lol
