Twitter isn't giving me notifs for some replies + follows ๐ซค
Trying to catch up now that I've figured it out, so sorry if I'm 3 days late or some shit
@turningmystile trans men themselves: tweet a bit. a few jokes. a few somber thoughts
people who hate us (so often???): writing RECURRING NOVELS of friendfiction about us like it's their whole damn day job
I was feeling like a hot, sweaty mess (it's 95F/35C), then I saw some cutely-dressed girls and thought "why don't they look like a hot, sweaty mess like me?" Then one of them complimented my outfit and said "how do you keep from looking hot and sweaty?"
There's a lesson in that
@thintechgodhead but fr woodworking, whittling, building home decor, and refurbishing/customizing furniture + items being given away in local "buy nothing" groups
Customizing thrift shop paintings is on the same wavelength + just needs art supplies ๐ฉถ
@larryj4real@_OnlyClinton Had a serious kombucha phase, and this one's hands-down the least kombucha-y kombucha out there. Tastes like mildly suspicious apple juice
people are calling it poisoning but don't you think it's actually kind of sweet that she remembered every single one of my allergies and spent her time and money just to be my biggest hater on a random thursday. that's romance
My lightbulb moment for needing to lose weight came when I threw a pair of knickers from the top of the stairs towards the wash basket at the bottom of the stairs and they 'parachute floated' the final couple of feet.
@NoBananaBB@slooterman Think about that, though. You'd think one friend would understand that the other was just trying to spare their feelings bc they cared
Nope
World runs on feelings and tact over honest truth
But man, it'd be nice if it didn't
@NoBananaBB@slooterman The sincerely sad part is that most allistic people don't work logically like that
They go by feelings/ego, and find reasons to take offense to "I'm not a fan of your shit", whether justifiable or not
It's shitty, but vibes > truth more often than not
@NoBananaBB@slooterman People who pride themselves on "bluntness" truly aren't polite
It's a common apolitical dog whistle from people who confuse tactlessness with strength vs social ineptitude
@SomaliTigre@NatureOfWoman@bingbingbinks1 Don't worry, silly, you can still build stuff!
Just can't be trusted with important decisions in this scenario
Think of it like "get back in the kitchen", only with lumberyards and quarries ๐
