@suchnerve You gotta find your weirdos. Set a weirdo trap (start or join a niche hobby club). Put out weirdo bait (advertise in coffee shops, obscure hangouts, online & libraries). Be your weirdo self in the weirdo group. The normies leave & now you have weirdo friends! It's how I met mine.
@agirlopinions I'm waaaay too distractible to keep count, but I love to crochet. I wing everything. No patterns, just chaos. I've made everything from stuffies to a sweater. Just think about it like a really slow 3D printer, adding or taking away some each row to get the shape you want.
There's no way these covid deniers aren't bots. I've blocked enough to cover the entire population of earth and they keep respawning like infinite goombas.
@AuthorGoodwin I was devastated to learn my middle school through high school teacher died of cancer. She was amazing, and the reason I think about books how I do & have a good grasp of grammar. All her lessons were discussions, not lectures. I had planned to send her my books.
@prairie_posie Once I couldn't figure out why none of my baked goods were working, recipes I'd used all my adult life. Turned out I'd borrowed my mother's (back when we lived nextdoor before the disowning), and it had expired like a decade before. It has simply stopped being baking soda.
@JackTilde Coming from a purely grammatical angle:
Find out who's naughty AND nice:
Santa is going to find out who is naughty, &he is going to find out who is nice
Find out who's naughty OR nice:
Santa will find out if an individual has been naughty or if they've been nice
Either work🤓
@ZombieJesus198@NFTsAreTrash@FalconsStink@Ranting_Trans Thank you. I was just trying to have a good time about a book series at THAT guy showed up (the one you were replying to) and my grumpiness hit the wrong target. So tired of having to guard against the people who make this place a trash fire I inadvertently added to the flames.
@NFTsAreTrash@FalconsStink@Ranting_Trans Oh geeze, my bad. Their account was horrendous. I turn into an ostrich & stick my head in the sand in shame (though I know they don't do that). My apologies. I opened my mentions & got 2 "loser" comments nearly in a row & was just done with social media for the day & popped off.
@Magnolia_613 If your immune system runs like a fifty year old totaled car made out of rust, either by genetics (hello) or covid damage, I assume, colds can be terrible for weeks. I was sick constantly as a kid & later as an adult living with a school age kid. But like. Not in healthy people.
@Hack295@Ranting_Trans Or termites. Or butterflies. Or whales. The Howlers were an amazing take on a warrior alien race. The hunger of the taxxons & peaceful simplicity of the hork bajir. The morality of killing a host to get to the yeerk. Wonderfully complex story that had me rethinking at every turn.
@ZombieJesus198@FalconsStink@Ranting_Trans Oh no, not criticism from some rando who definitely didn't take the time out of their day to post from a 2nd account after I blocked the 1st! That would be so pathetic! Oh no now I must rethink my life & everything I love because of the sharp & devastating insult 'loser'.
BLOCK
@JenLRossman This is my favorite version too. And 1 of the best scenes. The laughter after the 'evil became we're rich' line (I think, it's been a while) is just gold. Evergreen gold. I also love how much it focuses on Clark over Superman, where the reporter is real & Superman is the persona.
@danny___puppy@Ranting_Trans "DO YOU JUST HATE TRASH CANS??!!" 😆
I think about that nearly every trash day. Genuinely god tier books. I still have the whole series, many worn nearly to pieces from riding around in my bookbag and pockets as a kid.
@xsuzi00@peamilkstan Nearly all my clothes are thrifted, for I am perpetually broke. Hitting one of those high quality, your personal style finds is such a windfall. I'm shaped like a potato so it's challenging, but I did hit some nice sweaters my last clothes quest.
@laurenancona I got criticized by my college tennis coach for not making the right faces DURING THE MATCHES. He wanted to be able to know if I was winning or losing by my face and body language. No, tennis is not a performance art. That's what the score cards are for.
@laurenancona Gain detergent specifically should be illegal. I can smell who uses Gain laundry detergent outside from 10 yards away while wearing a high quality respirator, and it's STILL overwhelming. How do people wearing those clothes not simply die of smell?
