as a cis guy, when presented with the "99% you get a ton of money, 1% you turn into a girl" it honestly would be dumb to not hit that button until it breaks. like ok now i have 100 bajillion dollars and gender dysphoria. big deal. i have all the money in the world to turn me back into a guy. like with that kind of money i could have obama do me a phalloplasty. he wouldnt be able to do it as he isnt a surgeon but the point still stands

[biggestcommunismbuilder]

Okay but hear me out OP, what if the button does the genie wish thing and it flips your internal experience of gender but doesn't change any of your external sex characteristics? This isn't even a gotcha, I'm just actually curious

[epicsause-official]

well in that case i still end up with the "shitload of money & gender dysphoria" combo but this time obama is doing a vaginoplasty instead

basically legalizing weed is good and legalizing running people over with your car is bad so it's hard to say what the general position on legalizing things should be

So I went home for thanksgiving and my extended family is Catholic and they all know I converted to Judaism.

Anyways before dinner, one of my uncles said grace and he went off script and got WEIRDLY dark and very Christian. I'm talking he was mentioning being whipped and scourged and bloodied and failing the Lord or whatever. Even his kids had no idea why he got that dark lmfao. [Basically I expected him to say "bless us oh Lord in these thy gifts from which we are about to receive thy bounty through Christ our Lord" and then maybe add some stuff about thankfulness or whatever. It was NOT that.] Meanwhile I usually just say Hamotzi and wait for everyone else to be done.

Anyways my uncle said grace before thanksgiving dinner in a way that was SO weird and uncomfortable that basically everyone else asked me to just say the Jewish blessing before dinner next year instead.

Literally being asked to spare everyone by doing hamotzi for the whole table. 😂😂😂 They don't even know what it is they're all just like "maybe next year you should take the lead and do Jewish grace."

saw an elderly woman walking around with a tote bag whose design were the four AO3 fic category squares and she very excitedly asked if i was a reader or a writer bcs nobody else at the con had recognized it, and after telling her that i've been writing fic since fanfic.net, she solemnly nodded and explained that she'd been reading fic since "the days of personal websites" but that she only started writing fanfic when she was 47 and oh my god when i tell you that i genuinely teared up on the spot!!!!! like!!! HELL YEAH???? LITERALLY NEVER TOO OLD TO START WRITING. NEVER TOO OLD TO WRITE AND SHARE YOUR FIC.

her enthusiastic "i'm a very nice and bubbly person, i swear! but i love writing angst and major character death :)" nearly took me the fuck out.

icon. legend. diva. i wish her nothing but a kajillion million comments and kudos. i hope her fic updates crash AO3. i hope she knows i'm promoting her to my personal patron saint of AO3.

Something about Yelena being backlit by the only source of light in Bob's void room while everything else was pulsing in darkness.... And the fact that only they mutually saw each other's Void rooms...

Bonus: Jelena is a feminine name of Slavic origin and a unique twist on Yelena, meaning "bright," "light," or "torch." It is derived from the Greek name Helen, which means "shining" and "sunlight.” [source]

tonight I had the privilege of hearing a 13 year old explain the terms “cooking” and “cooked” to my 45 year old manager and she said something so excellent I have to document it.

“cooked is bad. cooking is good. you’re either in the pot or you’re holding it.”
