    I work at a nursing home and a woman came in to visit her husband. We chatted for a minute while she signed in and then she said, "Well, I'm off to see the love of my life." I said, "Aw, that's so sweet. How long have you been together?" She said they were high school sweethearts and he "still makes my toes tingle when he kisses me." It was sooo cute!!

      I know some very amazing straight people.
      Some of the best people in my life are straight.
      My cousin when his girlfriend got hit by a truck spent every single day in the hospital room with her and would argue with her father that he had every right to be there.
      And when she woke up the first thing she saw was my cousin's face.
      Unfortunately life is very unfair and his girlfriend passed away in the hospital shortly after.
      Her father was at work when he got the phone call my cousin was sitting next to her holding her hand as she drew her last breath.
      When I told him I was bisexual he told me that he hopes that I find someone like he did
      No matter who they happened to be.
      He would love them just as much as he loves me.
      That mindset is how every single human should have. When his girlfriend got hit by that car my cousin was at work he dropped what he was doing and went straight to the hospital.
      He almost punched his boss when he was denied being able to leave.
      He just walked out and went to the hospital.
      That is a sign of love and as a straight person he should be the role model for not just straight people but every one in the world.

    There's no problem in being cis, straight or whatever. The real issue is being a miserable and disrespectful human. When you are prejudiced, then you are not okay. I'm a straight trans guy, but I have no right to be homophobic just because I'm straight. And people shouldn't be transphobic just because they are cis, as well. Anyway, thanks, Jamie! Love your vids.
    Edit.: Wow, I didn't thought people would actually read this. But obviously fools are right below commenting foolish thoughts. For those victimizing about "we can't discuss anymore😭", I shall say: yes, it in fact happens. As I said, your gender/sexual orientation/color don't matter when it comes to morality. It's something people should have, but keep failing and forgetting what it means. Do you know which kind of person already hurt me in my life? Any kind. White, black, cis, trans and all of them with their own sexual orientation. But seems like you, losing your time arguing in the comments of a comment of a video from a channel from a guy you don't even like, would never stop and think that exactly 100% of logical, evil and stupid creatures in this world are from the same species of yours. Because we are all 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘴. That's what any annoying victimist with a haughty inflated ego or trouble-seekers like you share in common. 𝘏𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺. To be a selfish, depraved social parasite, you just need this. 𝘉𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯.
    (But for those who gave me likes, thank you all! I'm glad to see some people understood my point).

      @Star of Europe I mean, it's believable. Elderly couples tend to follow each other pretty closely. It's called the Widowhood effect. While it isn't totally understood, the current leading theory is that the surviving spouse can't withstand the stresses of grief, physically or mentally, and they tend to die shortly after their long term partner.

    For the pretty princess guy at 6:30
    I have a similar thing and wanted to talk about it for a long time, once I was doing a "game" that was about how you fell comfortable being called, and it had nicknames etc. One of the examples was Prince and I just melted with the ideia of someone called me a Prince (I am a cisgender girl, so it never happened before).

I was on my period recently and went to my husband telling him how gross and dirty I felt because of it (growing up in a household that shamed me for my period products and didn’t allow me to talk about it) he put his hand on my shoulder and told me that I’m not allowed to feel gross. If I have cramps I can feel sick or in pain but I am not allowed to feel gross because it is natural and there is nothing wrong with my body or my periods. They are not gross and I am not gross. I started sobbing because hormones and love and he just laughed and hugged me. I am so lucky to have such a great man! We need more men who think like this!

    Oh my God, so, I'm going to a wedding in June. My ex is getting married to the woman that he dated (on my suggestion) while we were still together. They're the cutest couple, and I'm so glad they still have each other! It was a bit of a rough breakup for me, but we both knew that we weren't fitting quite right. I'm so proud of and excited for the two of them, and I can't wait to see how beautiful the wedding is!

      Babies natually start off with a vowel after a constant (m, d, p, and b are all fairly common early on), so when a baby says mama, dada, papa, etc for the first time it's unlikly that's it's actually saying anything but rather just making sounds

      Straight people get the sharp end of the staff too much but it's not like it's undeserved.
      The straight folk have caused tons of problems for the LGBTQIA+ community.
      Look at Ron DeSantis His being elected as governor of Florida is evidence enough there are some bad straight people out there.
      The guy wants to run for president of the United States next.
      There are good straight people I know some of them irl and I'm sure you're a good person too but when you hear LGBT people bad mouth the straights that are coming out of fear and experience.
      It's terrible that they put all straight people in the same boat and we shouldn't do that but straight people do it to us.
      They call us all child predators because a small percentage of us, unfortunately, prey on children.
      Do you see this double edge sword?
      If you don't want to be in that same straight boat then prove it.
      Speak up for your LGBT classmates/co-workers. Whenever the topic is brought up at the dinner table with your family try to show them your point of view.
      Be the ally we need you to be.

    My friend and I once had a set of characters that were twins (he controlled the boy, I controlled the girl), and mine was nonverbal, and wrote very little as well. We always had her communicate via emojis with her brother similar to the rabbit dinner thing (Not all emojis, but frequently), and would chat back and forth to decide how best to portray what she wanted. That is, until the two of us started getting so good at understanding EACH OTHER in emojis that we’d write them having conversations this way without discussing it previously, and fully understand one another. It was awesome and really fun!

    The last one actually made me emotional because it looks like she is upset and he is really sweetly comforting her. If I lost my husband’s birthday balloons, I would be super upset because he’s so wonderful and deserves a nice birthday surprise and I would be mad at myself for messing it up. But he would totally comfort me like the boyfriend here. And then probably gently tease me (e.g. “Let’s go to dinner in that direction and maybe we will spot them!”).

    I think your gooshy reactions to people being sweet and adorable to each other are, well, adorable. Never lose that wholesome sentimental vibe!

    Hey Jammi, I've been struggling with my gender identity for a few years now and I just no longer feel like a female. I've been thinking and thinking about what I can do or who to go to but I'm not sure what to do first. I'm going through a lot with my identity and watching your videos are really helping me understand how trans people go through life and how they learn things on the way. ❤️❤️

    This is the first time I've ever heard of shoe expanders. Fascinating.

    my grandparents were married for sixty-two years. we got a few politicians to write them congratulations cards on their sixtieth like how the monarch writes to you on your hundredth (thankfully where I live the pandemic wasn't really a thing yet at the time so we were able to take them out to celebrate)

    I was going to make a snarky comment of ‘yeah all 3 of them’ (it’s not been a good time of late) but then my heart melted at the ‘I will go with you’ badge, that is just beautiful

    Back in the 60s when high heel pumps were extremely popular my dad used to wear my mom’s pumps to stretch them out for her.
