Birthday Boxing Day

 Hello,

I'm now 17. Eek!

My birthday was incredible. I got everything I asked for, and more. I had one panic attack and one close-call - the close-call around 2pm, overstimulated and close to a meltdown, and the panic attack around 10pm, from anxiety about getting old and feeling bad that my dad didn't get to be there for it. But I dealt with it.

I got:

- a new laptop

- 2 FNaF posters

- paint supplies

- makeup supplies

- a weighted dino plushie

- clothes

- a touch-activated squishy duck lamp

- a murder mystery solo game

- Scooby Doo purse and shopping bags

- slime

- a scooter

- a sit down bicycle exercise thing

- Playstation giftcard

And probably other things I'm forgetting. I feel very spoilt and very happy. I think this is the best birthday presents I might have ever gotten. I had a great day too, my mum made me toast for breakfast, no one upset me, I hugged my stepdad for the first time in probably almost a decade, I got to see my uncle, I had cake, I got to pet my uncle's dog, and I had Maccas for dinner. It was great, and I had barely any anxiety for it in the weeks prior. In fact, I think I had more anxiety on my 16th birthday when I worried about how I'd feel on my 17th, than on the day itself!

Anywho, that's that. I'll set up my new laptop soon - I imagined I'd write this post later on the actual day from my new one, but did my murder mystery thing pretty much all day. I was gonna just empty this one, but thank goodness I remembered my ... um .... important files for my 3DS are on here. I'll have to scour a little bit to make sure I don't delete anything actually important!

The Abandonment of Science by the Left, and the Adoption of Progression by the Right

Science has gone from being a very leftist and progressive subject to a weapon for the right. Science vs Religion has evolved into Rich vs Poor, or more simply, Institution vs Common Man. I believe this has something to do with how people view science: The rich white man's way of controlling the population. This confuses me, since, in comparison to other subjects, at least from my observations, science is so incredibly diverse. If you contribute to science, regardless of your background, you will be remembered forever. Stephen Hawking (disabled), Alan Turing (gay), Ada Lovelace (female), Neil deGrasse Tyson (Black)... and those are only off the top of my head. AI has become right-wing. Robotics have become right-wing. Cars have become right-wing. Planes have become right-wing. Space has become right-wing. Psychiatry has become right-wing. Anything that requires funding or has been utilised by a bad person has become right-wing. I don't know who I blame more - right-wingers for ...

Plastic Surgery and Feminism

I hate how some feminists try to police women's bodies because their choices are "influenced by the patriarchy". Everything is influenced by the patriarchy. If I grow up and decide I want a nose job, because I think it would look cute (let's say I had a broad nose or something), yes, that would be a decision influenced by the patriarchy. Society sets up unfair aesthetic standards for women. But I'm grown. I can make decisions. If I decide to wear a really short dress, sure, that's a decision influenced by the patriarchy. The choice of style was popularized by sexual advertisements and modelling, designed to arouse men. But most of these feminists will also say "I don't dress/wear makeup for men". How can you not understand how surgery is the same?  Also, I completely believe you can dress/get work done/wear makeup completely for yourself. I think the real problem is women acting like other women are dumb because they want to make their own choice...
