If you're wondering what the #JohnMastodon thing is about...

...here you go. Captured by the Wayback Machine for you, as the author has since realised he'd misread the Join Mastodon account name. 😂

And thusly, the legend of John Mastodon is born.

The worst part is, that I just want her to be happy.

I DON'T WANT HER TO BE STRESSED. That isn't my goal, and she even keeps on implying repeatedly that it is. And it's heartbreaking.

@beardalaxy @matana @LukeAlmighty Yep, my mother does this too. Not even on holidays. And it's absurd because every other day it's "this is the LAST time I'm cooking, you all are having PB&J from now on." Dad and I are FINE with that. We call that bluff so much, and it just fuels her rage when she sees it backfire. Maybe sudden realization of being rendered unessential in a thing you've been doing nearly daily for 30+ years comes as a shock when you realize the people who used to rely on you can handle themselves. So there will always just be yelling about it. Just damned if you do, damned if you don't...

I'll laugh at the woman being woman, but also just feel real disappointed. There's a point where it becomes an entirely self-inflicted problem.

> i'm sure guys do stuff like this too tbh.

I know, that an example from TV show is a bad thing, but Breaking Bad had shown this with the overworking.

Even when Walter had much more then enough for the rest of his and his son's life, he kept on working and putting his entire family in danger.

Because man provides.

If you heard the shouting and stress in here, you would fully understand.
