[Well, I’m still feeling under the weather, but I feel too guilty continuing to not update, so we’re back on schedule (unless I take another turn for the worse). Updates might be on the short end of things for a while though.]
A compilation of people loving their daughters:
“I suddenly really felt like mala tang today, but I don’t have any friends I can invite out on a moment’s notice. I asked my daughter if she wanted to come with mommy to eat something spicy, but she can have a non-spicy version, and she agreed really happily, and chattered to me all along the way about what happened in school. I drove her there and she even sang me her favourite nursery rhymes! It was so fun! I got the mala tang I wanted, got her a non-spicy serving, and we both enjoyed our meal. I suddenly realised that this little kid is going to be my friend. Having a daughter is a truly blessed.”
“OMG, someone finally put my feelings into words! It was only after I had a daughter that I was like, “Wow, who the hell wouldn’t love daughter!?” Daughters are great! My son has never given me the same feels as my daughter has given me. She can go shopping with me, eat with me, listen to me, let me vent to her, and more importantly, she always unconditionally supports me, and she’s always my biggest fan. My daughter’s 6, and the last time I was sick and laying in bed for a nap, she woke me up, and I told her impatiently that mommy was sick and needed her rest. And she was like, “I noticed you didn’t have any dinner so I made you some noodles.” That shocked me so much I sat right up and saw that she really had made me some noodles. That was the first time she’d ever cooked. She used the electric stove and a tiny pot to cook some noodles. Although she didn’t add any salt or oil, and it was just boiled in plain water. I didn’t finish it, I just took two bites, but I was so touched I wanted to cry, because I can imagine her climbing onto a little stool to cook for me. And no matter who’s arguing with me, she’ll stand in front of me and argue right back, even if she’s really afraid. Sometimes, I’ll deliberately pick a fight with daddy, and she’ll get in front of me and be like, “Daddy, you’re being bad, you can’t treat mommy this way.” She really is protecting me.”
“I’m 26, and my mom is still like, “Is it okay if I eat one of your puffs? Lol, too late, I’ve already eaten one!””
“Daughters are great! They’re shopping buddies, food buddies, nail buddies, travel buddies…”
“Told her mommy wants to have some barbecue today, and she was like, “Okay, hold on, let me open you a beer.””
“My daughter thought the chicken legs at school were really tasty today, so she wrapped one in a napkin and brought it home today. It was International Women’s Day.”
“The proudest thing I’ve done in my life was having my baby daughter. I love her more than anything in the world, and I love her a bit more every day.”
“My husband wanted to get barbecue in the middle of the night. Asked me to come along and I didn’t want to go, so he asked our daughter instead. She was so happy, she ran to get her shoes on, and now they’re off looking for barbecue. Kids are the best buddies—they’re ready to go every time, and they’re excited about everything.”
“My daughter was eating potato chips and said she needs to give the most perfect chip to mommy.”
“My luoshifen [sour and spicy rice noodle] buddy at 2AM in the morning.”
“How do I get a daughter without having to get pregnant first?”
“That’s okay, although I don’t have a daughter, I do have a son. And although my son won’t go shopping with me, or give me emotional support, and although he only gets 67 points on his exams, but….there is no but.”
“Professor Hu Biliang who called for more subsidies for black international students just passed away from sudden disease. Just letting all you netizens out there in on this news. Don’t be too sad.”
Comments say, “Gotta get myself some coke, watermelon, and fried chicken tonight.”
“He’s dead? Time to send his wife and kids to Africa, his spiritual home, to fulfil his dreams of always watching out for Africa.”
“I’m sure the black brotherhood will light him a candle.”
“Lol, I’m about to die laughing. Saw a girl post her records of trying for pregnancy with her husband. They did it 12 times in half a month. She’s not pregnant yet but she feels like her husband is dying.
The comment section was like, “Dude, trying for pregnancy is when you should be adjusting your sleep schedules, building good habits, quitting smoking and drinking, not having sex every day! Not even bulls can keep up with this schedule! You’re trying to get a life by sacrificing a life!”
Comments say, “This is making hate.”
“You can’t go at this at a 996 schedule. Sex isn’t like work, fucking isn’t your KPI.”
“To be honest, I thought trying for pregnancy meant in addition to quitting smoking and drinking, you also had to have sex every day.”
“Congratulations! People with one-day weekends have to work 9 days in a row #Golden Week”
Comments say, “Some people with one-day weekends aren’t getting any days off at all lol.”
“[attaches work schedule]” [yellow is the days off this commenter is getting, red is the weekends he’s working to make up for it, white is normal work days.]
“Even after working 9 days straight, we still don’t get the 5 days off we were promised. If we’re not following the rules when it comes to giving people public holidays, why are we following the rules on making people work to make up for it? Why not just keep 996-ing as usual?”
“I only get one day weekends, and yesterday, we had a meeting. Last week and the week before, I had to work overtime on Sunday. I’ve been working nonstop from Qing Ming to Golden Week.” [That is, 4th of April to 1st of May.]
A compilation of the comments beneath a post about a father getting his daughter from school in a three-wheeled bike/truck, and she’s so ashamed, she covers her head with her jacket.
“If you’re so insecure, go make your own money then. Children shouldn’t resent their parents the same as dogs don’t resent their owners.”
“What if it was your bro coming to pick you up in that car?”
“You’re grown up now so you don’t think anything of it, but if you got seen like this when you’re little, your classmates really would all make fun of you. Not everyone has manners.”
“Stop arguing. Anyone who’s expressing doubts has never went to school, or were a bully themselves. Kids are way more sensitive than adults imagine.”
“I really want to see the childhoods of some people in this comment section.”
“You can’t even empathise with your childhood self.”
”Your kid’s gonna get made fun of. It’s gonna be classroom gossip.”
“Really? Do some people really use an adult’s insight to scold someone else’s childish sensitivities?”
“What is this comment section making fun of? Aren’t most kids this age the same way? They’re starting to gain a sense of pride, they’re starting to care what other people think. This is all a normal part of growing up. Stop being so mean to kids.”
“Does he drive this car to hotels to attend his own high school reunions too?”
“It’s true, this is how you get bullied. Bullies love targeting poor kids or kids whose parents are out of town a lot.”
the contrast between the wholesome women loving their daughters post and the racist post😭
“How do I get a daughter without having to get pregnant first?”
我也要 🥲
