Started a new job delivering pizzas this week and on my 2nd day this other driver was talking about how if she was a drug dealer, she would put the drugs in cute little drawstring bags.

And I, a social powerhouse, said "oh like little dice bags?"

To which she stared at me deadpan and said, lacking all emotion that she'd had in previous conversation, "oh you're a dnd nerd aren't you."

I'm not ashamed of being a dnd nerd but for about 3 seconds there, I thought I should be. But she then said if I ever had a Sunday off I might be able to play in her husband's games.

So idk how she feels about dnd but I have another gateway to my favorite game in the world waiting in the wings now so that's good

I have to add that gender euphoria for cis people doesn't always come from like, conforming to your gender in a "stereotypical" way

I've always been very comfortable with my gender but I didn't Really Like being a woman until I cut my hair short and started dressing/presenting more "masculine."

When i realized that I could look "manly" as a woman I truly felt comfortable and really...more "like" a woman. I enjoy being masculine and it strengthens my connection to womanhood and it's just kinda cool

man sometimes friendship really is just "I saw this and knew it would give you psychic damage. please respond with agony" and then they do. and it's great

Doctor says I got the depression from a lavender bush growing outside my house. Yep. The smell drifting in through open windows in the summer heat made me melancholy. [reacting to everyone's incredulousness and getting defensive and aggressive] I'm telling you that's what he fucking SAID. He said scents can bring about a mournfulness in the soul. No. He said there's nothing to be done about it now

They never explore the sheer horror and tragedy of Astro Boy as much as they should.

Imagine you're a child. Your life seems normal, albeit your father is a bit neglectful because he's absorbed in his work. One day, your father suddenly becomes incredibly attached to you. He takes leave from work, he starts homeschooling you. He wants to spend all of his time with you. But it only lasts a week. Maybe a month at best. He becomes cold again. You're not his real child, he complains. Just a pale imitation.

You find out then that you died. You were hit by a car and your body was mangled. But you're still here? No, you're not. You're a robot. But you remember being human. You know you were human. You remember growing up.

The memories are fake. The real you is dead and gone and your father, this stranger, built you in a mad attempt to bring his child back. He doesn't love you. In fact, he despises you. Just looking at you makes him want to puke. But Dad, I love you, you say. He screams at you to leave. You're not my child.

He wants nothing to do with you. He sells you to a robot circus, where they're tortured and electrocuted into obedience. You can feel all of that pain. You were programmed to feel pain and emotions, just like a human. Every night when you try to sleep, you feel a pain in your chest where your heart used to be. Do you even have a soul now? You've lost everything and it wasn't even your fault.

Dhmu I just realized I had gender envy for Ralphie from magic school bus as a kid idk what to do with this self awareness

[cobythinks]

Kinda feel like a jerk sometimes for how well and like quickly my body has taken to testosterone. Like the first 3 month appointment it was obvious enough that my doctor literally said I was taking it fantastically. My period stopped immediately. My voice started changing within 3 months. My hips are GONZO. I'm actually mildly annoyed by having to shave my face regularly cuz it's been doing that shit too. I have muscles now barely even trying. Like. There's no way I have enough positive karma that this is fair at all.

But on the other hand, what, I'm gonna feel bad for doing what generations of people have dreamed of an fought for the ability to do? No way. I'm just also the poster boy lucky transition, and idk what to do with that really.

I guess be happy or something.

"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s

Bro I really should look into minimalism cuz I'm getting ready to move and there's already 3 full boxes labeled things like "shelves, trinkets. Storage" and "witch stuff. storage." And "nick knacks, swords. storage" and my room doesn't feel packed up at all yet

You may notice that stoning someone is considered violent, but getting stoned is generally a good time. Similarly, getting your shit rocked is usually bad, but rocking someone’s world is almost always positive. This is because we rocks are very nuanced and complex
