My kid got in a fall and I had to leave work to go to Urgent Care. Three hours for a doctor to give my kid a pain med and a bandaid, and costing us $2k.
Ive been helping my unemployed ex-teammates find work and stay motivated.
My wife’s side of the family messed up on their paperwork and because they’re also dark skinned, I’m worried about ICE.
I took my other kid to the park last week and was called a sexual predator by another mom. Ive been pretending to be okay as the women in my family all blame me for “looking how I look”.
My cousins have called me twice in the past month concerned about bills, and I’m sending them food money.
Oh and the Europeans on Lemmy is yelling at me for being an American because I’m not doing enough to stop Trump.

I’m very sorry for you, and fuck the women in your family for saying something like that. Someone who thinks you look like a sexual predator and says you deserve to get harassed for your looks is no family of mine. I’m a woman, but I’d slap the shit out of someone if I knew they said that to their male family member.
I feel like the manosphere is so loud right now that average dudes is caught in the crossfire. All I can do is politely apologize on behalf men for all the toxicity. Which again, a tiny fraction of the many things going on in the world.
Acknowledge their complaints are valid, sure, but you should not apologize for the actions of others just because they share superficial similarities. Internalizing guilt for things other people do isn’t healthy.
Keep being a decent person, that is the best you can do.
I respect you. If not for a random parent being dual citizen somewhere else, I’d be in the exact same shoes. We got out four years ago.
Try to ignore the people on this site who can’t distinguish between real people and real problems. The system is all about making good people less activated. Just keep doing your best.
Lots on your shoulders brother. I praise you for holding it all together. You’re doing a great job despite being ask so much and disrespected. Man to man, family man to family man, this all will pass. Stay kind brother.

I appreciate the kind words. Thank you.

Especially after offering to look after the kids
