Any text that requires me to venture outside of the chat before I respond is simply not getting a response. It’s like asking a chicken to deliver your mail, she just ain’t comin home bro, she’s gonna get lost

[rexuality]

Okay let me clarify. Someone texts me, “would you like to hang sometime? when are you next available?” I think, “oooh I would love to hang, lemme just open my calendar”

And this is where the chicken drops the letter. She sees a calendar filled to the brim with things that remind her of other things and next thing she knows she’s deep in a Reddit thread about the differences between hawks and falcons

can I tell you all about a recent thing I said that made some strangers laugh

ok I am gonna tell you anyways. I was in an elevator with my sister and some medical staff and at a random floor an elderly lady walked in. I held up a drawing my sister had done in the hospital and asked, “what’s the name of this lady you drew?” and my sister said, “trash”

everyone was kinda like :/ because it was a good drawing and then I quietly said, “patrasha..” and everyone laughed and I am still thinking about it because the elderly lady who had been in there for 8 seconds was MOST tickled by this and repeated “patrasha” with a lil smile on her face before leaving the elevator

[rexuality]

I have an idea for a fun local competition that is motivated from me loving people with lots of stories

It would be called something like The Ultimate Lore tournament or some shit and the idea is to crown whoever has the best lore

The categories would be the following:

How I got this scar/injury

How I met this individual/these folk

How I obtained this item

The context behind this photo

So the ideal participant has a piece of lore for each category (and I am receptive to hearing more categories that I am sure I’ve overlooked.)

We go through each category and each participant either brings the item/person or photo in question to the stage and then they have 5 minutes or less to Give Us That Lore!

The audience then rates on a notepad (or an app or website perhaps) about how intriguing they found that lore based on a number of points.

In the end, whoever has the most lore points is crowned the Lore King or whatever. I’m still figuring out details.

Would you participate as a contestant or an audience member? Do you know someone who would fucking sweep? Lemme know in the tags I’m thirsty for lore

my husband works at the library and he just sent the group chat a pic of some dinosaur decorations his elderly coworker made and put up and well.. :(

[rexuality]

he said she is very sweet and she tried her best

[rexuality]

He’s back at that branch and sent me a full pic. She did work very hard!! 😭

I've reached the point where cynicism is a major turn-off for me. You're not smarter than idealists, and you're not helping.

[quasi-normalcy]

Funny that the stereotypical cynic is an idealist who aged out of it. In my experience, the reverse is true. I was an extreme cynic as a teenager and then I noticed how profoundly limiting it was, and also that "cynics are cool and smart" was a message that was being constantly reinforced by corporate media for some reason.

[quasi-normalcy]

#yes! cynicism reads as very juvenile to me#and yes prev often stemming from teen pain

Yeah, like I see black-pilled people on here and my default reaction isn't "oh, these must be world-weary old warriors who've lost their faith in humanity", it's "these people are in their 20s and need a hobby"

[quasi-normalcy]

I also think that the present era has proven that authoritarian leaders don't actually want a population of wide-eyed idealists, they want a population of jaded assholes who are convinced that everyone is lying, any resistance is either a scam or doomed to failure, and nothing can ever get better.

so I got hit with some bad news

I’ve been experiencing odd symptoms for like a year now. 3 years ago they found a 1cm fibroid and told me it wasn’t anything to worry about. last Friday I got an ultrasound after several months of trying to make an appointment and I was told that it is now the size of a baseball. the only option I have at this point is a partial hysterectomy.

this came as a total shock to me as I had it in my head as a routine checkup. I was supposed to go back to work but I couldn’t. just went home, threw my brochures on the couch and cried. I still can’t wrap my head around it. I just came back from a dream trip and didn’t even have a week to enjoy the afterglow. felt like I fell off the clouds right into a pit.

I never planned on children but now it’s no longer a choice. I have to come to terms that I will never ever create life. there won’t be a little person with a little of me and a little of my husband. there isn’t even a word for the feminine equivalent of emasculation but I feel like that’s where I’m at. I’ve had a period since I was 11 years old and they were debilitating. I always had to leave class once a month. 24 years of my body bringing me to my knees to serve something that I have to remove now. I should feel relief but I just feel grief.

The nurse was so casual about how she said it as she looked at my ultrasound. She went, “Oh that’s not good. I’m betting a hysterectomy is the best option, but I’ll let the doctor talk about that. But no biggie since you don’t want kids anyways, right? Hah!”

As if she didn’t tell me I had to get an organ removed. As if she didn’t tell me part of my agency was just stripped away while I was in such a vulnerable state. Like it’s not a big deal that I will have to go through some ambiguous timeframe of recovery and will have to see the sorrow on my parents’ and in-laws’ faces as they try to squash down their hopes for grandchildren to support me. Like I’m not gonna financially suffer for it.

It’s just so heavy and I wish I had somewhere to put my hurt. I always thought if I got pregnant by accident and had a girl I’d name her Celestine. I feel like I have to officially say goodbye to her now.

Fuck it’s impossible to go to sleep. If you’re reading this and wanna help me somehow, can you tell me your favorite place you’ve visited? I do want to write about New Zealand soon. I am just wrestling with this. But I think the idea of exploring more of the world is a good comfort.

a little tired, that's all

nimble, a border collie-papillon mix, wins the 12” class in the 2024 masters agility championship. the first time a mixed breed has won at westminster ever.

context explaining why the announcer is screaming, this is supposed to take a high level competitive agility dog 40 seconds

[sandersstudies]

This video makes me cry every time it’s on my dash and I can’t even iterate why.

Like the dog doesn’t even know it’s a competition and she’s made history. She(?) just is happy and knows she made her owner happy too.

always a pleasure to see this girl on my dashboard

[rexuality]

me: are you sure you want to spend so much time on your steamdeck? what about this amulet? wouldn’t you rather feel very intensely towards this gold rope chain black opal amulet?

husband: for the last time, you can’t dictate what items I’m attached to in the hopes that my spirit will cling to something that fits your aesthetic when I die

me, placing an amethyst chalice of strawberry milk next to him: I am literally not even doing that

[rexuality]

I wish to read lesbian porn on the internet

guys I went to new zealand by myself and now I am back

I have 1000 things to say and I will probably say them here after I am done blabbing in person to everyone who even looks at me but the one thing I will say right now is this:

the many, many fluffy sheep on your rolling green hills and your autumn leaves saved me thank you so so much

[todaysbird]

ATTENTION there are hummingbird species called pufflegs and they are all wearing very silly pants and that’s their defining trait
