I am going to [remembers that jokes about suicide are detrimental to myself and others] Scarborough Fair.
There is nothing moral or ethical about tormenting a person with dementia and the fact that this has to be said is astounding
People like this are more upset they never got the chance to be bullies and abusers than anything else and just can't wait to have the chance to hold power against the vulnerable
also uhhhhhh elder abuse is just as bad as child abuse??? that's a vulnerable person who cannot defend themself and who doesn't even remember why you are doing that. did no one ever teach you "an eye for an eye leaves the world blind"?? Jesus fuck
When my mother in law, who was a complex, intelligent person but a terrible mother, developed dementia, we took care of her as well as she could possibly be taken care of, not for her sake but for the sake of the voice in my husband's head that would echo her words to him in childhood. We can tell that voice, "he was a better son than she ever was a mother"
Interestingly the more she declined, the better she was to him. It doesn't negate the harm she did when he was a kid, but he walked away from her death knowing he'd done his best.
It helped that we inherited a fair amount of money from her but it wasn't why we did it.
This does not mean you are obligated to take care of people who were awful to you, but breaking the cycle on purpose is good, whatever that looks like.
Human beings deserve care, even if we don't like them. No one deserves abuse.
And if a chance for compassion and seeing the complexity of a person and finding some peace in their old age is possible, that is better for you in the long run than holding your fury longer than you need it.
We could have made her miserable. She probably deserved him walking away. But he deserves knowing that he is so much better a person, as both a parent and a child, than she ever knew how to be.
i think any time you form a sentence that looks like "... you get no human rights" you should stop and think real hard about what you just said and whether you have understood what the concept of a human right is.

I got my (now 18-year-old) daughter into Ao3 back in 2021. I taught her she should always comment - even if the fic looks old or abandoned or whatever. She did.
Well - she got this email this morning:
The fic was written in 2014 and essentially abandoned.
Bethy read and reviewed in 2021 (and was actually the only person who had commented at all).
Today in 2025 - the final chapter was posted by the author and this was her reply to Bethy’s comment.

Never question whether a fic is too old to comment on.

so i did that thing again where i quit something. and it sucks, because at the start i felt so so so much love for it, but in the end. well, i don't know what happened in the end. there's the reason i gave, yes. but at the same time there's also a tiredness i felt towards the people, an overwhelm for something coming up in april, a lot of tiny things i didn't speak up about that grated on me.
never mind that. it's over, i quit. there's something else i want to talk about.
have an easy breezy monday everyone
god i'm so tired of everybody's bad faith interpretations of everything. where's the trust. where's the forgiveness. where's the understanding that most things are complex and most people have many layers. and like the black eyed peas once said. where is the love
No seriously he really did.
“Kill them with kindness.” Of course. Just make sure you do kill them.

I just watched Hot Fuzz again and I need to talk about it.
The writers for Hot Fuzz have said several times that Nicolas originally had a female love interest but she took up too much time without being connected to the murder plot so they removed her completely and instead gave her core dialogue and scenes to Danny, making him the love interest.
The movie constantly makes connections between Danny and Nicolas’ ex-girlfriend. For example, she complained about Nicolas forgetting her birthday so later on Nicolas panics when nobody told him it was Danny’s birthday. She told him he has to find someone he can love more than work and by the end he chose Danny over working in London. He gifts Danny flowers and wins him a stuffed toy. They spend the night out together followed by Danny inviting Nicolas home. They have a romantic theme that only plays during their emotional scenes. We even see the exact moment Nicolas realise he’s in love with Danny when the old lady asks if he’s buying flowers for a special someone and he says “….Yes” with a shy little smile.
The only thing missing is an actual kiss but in the Cornetto trilogy romantic relationships are rarely sealed with a kiss. In Shaun of The Dead the main romantic couple Shaun and Liz never kissed once and they had as much physical contact as Nicolas and Danny.
It’s funny to watch this movie and realise it has more queer content than some more modern movies and shows that are hailed as good queer media.
Like, I’ve never heard anyone accuse Hot Fuzz of queerbaiting but because it treats Nicolas and Danny’s relationship the same way most movies treat straight romances in the genre (it was literally originally written as a straight romance) people just didn’t notice it was a queer movie or thought it was a joke on homoerotic buddy cop movies. If it came out today it would absolutely be on the queer movie list.
if you’re not busy later i was wondering if you’d like to spend the rest of our lives together
Some of you guys have no idea about the interconnectedness of all things and it really shows
