How do you know you're not Asexual? Maybe you just haven't met the right nobody.

[aroaceenjolras]

This "allosexuality" thing is just a phase. You just need to have really bad sex, and then maybe you'll change your mind.

given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that

list of curses I'm under, to be updated as needed

-- curse on the right side of my body, which is always worse for some reason (more prone to infections, mystery pains, injuries)

-- when i'm within the state borders of tennessee there is a curse that cancels out my personal serendipity field

nonsense words such as "blorbo" and "skibidi" are outliers and a minuscule minority and thus do not invalidate that statement

today someone tried to convince me that shopping for everything on amazon is subversive. a sneaky way to get one up on the evil business, because you, the broke peasant, are sneakily getting all your necessities for way cheaper. she said it was the same as the bible quote "make your enemies your footstool."

that IS complete nonsense, right? like just grade A rationalization, right?

what an unusually eventful 24 hours of my life. reconnected with someone from my past who has apparently been kind of obsessed with me for like 7 years, went to a doctor's office that was completely decked out in several Pride flags (including just the trans flag,) got borderline ignored by a medical specialist as per usual, and got four back to back Bad Emails

I feel like I need to share this because idk if Europeans are familiar with the presence of Aldi in the US, but at least especially in my area they’ve been growing a lot recently. Like Aldi bought out some local failing grocery chains where I live (Louisiana) and have opened Aldis in all these somewhat rural communities and small towns, which for the record I’m fine with

But as a result of this they are advertising a lot more in my area and also in many cases, the people in these areas have never been confronted with Aldi or any European grocery store. So the ads that Aldi is pushing out to its new US customer base feature a cowboy shopping at Aldi who is explaining to new Aldi customers how Aldi works. Like this cowboy is explaining you gotta put a quarter in the shopping cart and why there are very little name brands. A cowboy is how they want to reach their American customer base. They gave us a cowboy

Big fan of calling male characters babygirls but I think we should start calling female characters babyboys too

[venndaai]

I’ve seen people on here rail separately against calling male characters babygirls and calling female characters little guys, and while I think they’ve correctly identified a problem (“girl” has sexual or demeaning or childish connotations while “guy” is an example of masculine-as-neutral-default) I don’t think the answer is to get more essentialist in our language use but rather to freak it up more. he’s just a little gal. she’s my sweet baby boy. she’s my boyfriend. he’s my special girlie. she’s my beautiful husband.

people being multilingual is always cool, but my banker from yesterday was professionally bilingual (had an hablo espanol placard on his desk) and as he was explaining banking and credit stuff to me with tons of specialized vocabulary, i realized he must not only have this specialized vocab in english but also in spanish, and i was like whoooaaa he's smarrrt

i wonder at what age i'll lose my teacher's pet aura, which allows me to ease through a lot of social interactions because older adults, even ones barely older than i am, are automatically endeared to me. maybe it'll be when i physically age enough that i stop looking more youthful than my age?

i worked with a woman who was....late 60s? who was also the youngest of 5 siblings, and never had her own children, like me. and she says her youngest sibling syndrome has never left in her life. that's gonna be me. 60 years old and the banker wants to adopt me as his child because of my vibes

maybe a week or two ago i remember i started having the thought "i now understand the value of unconditional loyalty to people in your life" but i can no longer remember the context that that sprung from. concerning.....

whenever i get overwhelmed by government bureaucracy i feel myself becoming a libertarian. then it stops when i remember that if i can't even handle paperwork, i probably can't become a ron swanson type (actually being able to succeed living completely independent from a government and all it provides)

original post was made under the influence of dealing with the DMV. I'm currently dealing with the attempted renewal of my government-subsidized health insurance and i'm a full on communist now

[unnuminous]

i've finally been railroaded into opening a new credit card, literally by the government. libertarian again

[unnuminous]

every time i have to admit to an expert that i still don't know how to do an adult thing that i should've had locked down at least 10 years ago, i reassure myself that i am at least not the stupidest and most hopeless person they have had to help, maybe not even that week. and at least i have a pleasant personality
