I know I technically have like 20 friends who live with me (yay plurality) but I do wish I had some casual friends that I am not in moirallegiance with. unfortunately my age group still has uncooked brains so I'll wait a couple years I guess.

props to toto and africa for showing me that it's okay to let go of plushies that i only keep out of inertia because i received them as a gift from whatstheirname for whichever special occasion.

except i now have the opposite problem - aside from the aforementioned two, there are maybe 6 or 7 other plushies at my place, tops... and i don't necessarily want any new friends at the moment, other than a few more plushie dreadfuls and some new vessels for old plushies.

It's so weird that the problem with cats is that they're too effective as predators, to the point where they kill off thousands of other species. I can't help but appreciate them even more for that.

i really don't miss being constantly late. showing up early to stuff so I can hang around before any social function is something i treasure very much.

looking back it's so fucked that I basically hated/punished myself for so long just for being too different from humans.

a lot of it has to do with being too trusting/open with people and them interpreting certain traits in the worst possible way.

lack of empathy is "not caring about people."

not understanding social cues or being unable to read between the lines for 500 hidden meanings lead to people thinking that I'm the one dropping hints, or me being too direct and saying the quiet part out loud too much or telling people shit they dont wanna hear.
