Can I Please Eat In The Computer Room Tonight? by Nicole Nikolich (2025)
CRAB CRAB CRAB
This was my first time working with leather because I got a burning desire for a bag shaped like a horseshoe crab. It has two zippered compartments, and an adjustable strap so it can be worn at my side as a cross-body bag or on my back more like a backpack.
I knitted a thing!!
Yes I will be wearing it E V E R Y W H E R E for the foreseeable âşď¸

i'm watching ds9 in italian for the first time, I got to the point where Julian meets garak for the first time.
I don't know if "enjoyable company" is an actual euphemism for sexual intercourse in the english language, but "gradevole compagnia", which is what garak says in the italian dubbing, DEFINITELY IS.
I kept thinking about this like a rabid dog and i think i understand why it sounds so forward. You see, in italian adjectives sometimes change meaning if the are before or after a noun. For example:
Vecchio amico = old friend (the two of you have been friends for a long time)
Amico vecchio = friend who is old. Like, as in age. (kinda offensive ouch)
So, you see:
Compagnia gradevole = the company is enjoyable
Gradevole compagnia = the company is enjoyable because we're having sex ;)
Basically the italian dubbing team has made the insane choice of translating this sentence literally while in italian those words sound EXTREMELY forward:
"Come lei saprà , ho un negozio di confezioni qui vicino, perciò se per caso le dovesse servire un abito, o semplicemente desiderasse, come me, diciamo un po' di gradevole compagnia, di tanto in tanto, sono a sua disposizione, dottore"
First of all NOBODY says "confezioni" in order to refer to clothing. Gay ass thing to say.
Second of all the phrase "se lei desiderasse, diciamo, un po' di gradevole compagnia, sono a sua disposizione" is batshit crazy. "Diciamo" means "let's say", it is extremely common to use that word as a telltale sign to mean "I'm about to use an euphemism".
"Desiderasse" has the same root of "desire", and don't even get me started on "sono a sua disposizione"(i am at your disposal) in a context like this.
It is a literal translation of the original, but it sounds more like:
"If you ever find yourself desiring some, erm, let's say *enjoyable* ;) company, hit me up (i'm always ready for you)"
Which is insane to me.
Are they, you know, Italian dubbed?
You actually do need noble lineage to rightfully rule, but since lineage doesnât dilute, and given the historic sexual tendencies of people in power wrt their servants, eventually noble lineage spread wide enough that everyone had it and thatâs why democracy happened.
nice *adds to list of theories that irritate everybody*

A 50-kilogram anvil floats perfectly on the surface of mercury, because the density of the steel from which it is made is almost half the density of mercury.
damn that shit is light lmfao
stupid punkass anvil
yeah drown his ass. fucking kill him.
I maintain that tumblr doesn't just have a problem with reading comprehension; it has a problem with reading period
People will reply to my posts saying "wow I can't believe you said this!" and I'm like yeah. I don't believe I said that either
Well I like it but itâs not very well written. Also itâs a visual mess. The plot doesnt make any sense and the creators suck and its politics oscillate from mildly problematic to frankly baffling. I wouldnât recommend it to anyone. However. the character
saw this post and had to make it about my favourite time loop anime lesbians

so many of the transfems i know spent their time pre-transition performing a kind of lifelong exercise in self-deprivation. the goal, for them, was to find out exactly how little a person needed to live. they starved themselves, dressed carelessly, shunned friends, and hollowed themselves out so as not to be burdens on anyone but themselves.
i see it now, too, in the girls around me. i'll ask if they want care â a home-cooked meal, relaxed company, sex without the expectation of reciprocation â and they say no, no, thank you, i don't need it; what would you like, what do you want, because in their head they're still doing that awful calculus, still training themselves to disappear in the eyes of the people around them.
i don't think i'd have died without transition â not in the conventional sense, at least â but to take that leap, i had to stop thinking of myself as a human experiment in fuel-efficient living and start nurturing the anemic, atrophied flame of desire in my heart. i had to learn to eat well, to exercise, to style myself beautiful, but harder than that, i had to learn to ask the people around me to work on my behalf in order to enrich my life and give me the things i wanted.
and i did it; i learned. and it was agony, but courage is a muscle you can train, and every day i get better at accepting gifts with the hungry gratitude i never learned in my years and years as a sad, scared, lonely boy.
so be patient with the trans girls in your life. better than that: be proactive, attentive, generous; be forceful, if you have to, and learn to distinguish real discomfort from the terrified reflex of self-deprivation that so many of us learned to rely on.
and if you are so lucky as to love a trans girl, you must insist upon her. you must insist upon her happiness, her comfort, her pleasure, and her rest, because she may still not yet know how to make those demands for herself. if you can devote any amount of energy to becoming an engine that nurtures the flame of even a single tgirl then there is a place for you in trans heaven, which as far as i'm concerned is the only one worth going to
hey thanks for this. i really needed it
sigh
Expectations
âMasculinityâ refers to the traits that are associated with men, are expected of men, and âbelongâ to men. It ranges from styles of dress, to social practices, to positions in society, to personality traits.
Some of these expectations, including misogyny, homophobia, transmisogyny, and a focus on violence, are labeled âtoxic masculinityâ. It is expected that men will treat others poorly.
People try to encourage a different view of masculinity, try to change these expectations, try to remove the negative ones.
Why doesnât it work?
Essentialism
Gender essentialism: itâs not just that men should be violent, itâs the belief that men are inherently violent, that these expectations are based on some biological truth, and thus beyond reproach.
This is nonsense, of course. These expectations are just that: expectations. Men and women are not terribly different.
But this belief, nonsense that it is, is very very prevalent. What better and more vile way to excuse the rapist than claim âthey couldnât control themselvesâ? What better way to frame an attack against one part of masculinity as an attack on men as a whole? What better way to resist even the most mild criticism?
Be better [than you]
People sometimes talk about the âpositiveâ traits of masculinity: strength, directness, courage, practicality.
But what exactly does that say about everyone else?
Every trait you put in the box of masculinity is one denied to anyone else. If you say men are good at something, you are implying that they are better at it. So donât.
Whatâs left
So what is masculinity, really? Whatâs left after you take away the toxicity, the essentialism, the exclusion?
Not much, really. A style of dress, I suppose.
People trying to frame some image of âwholesome masculinityâ are doomed because that doesnât exist. All youâre doing is advertising a look.
And they are a fine pile of clothes I should add. I donât disparage anyone who likes wearing them, just as I donât disparage anyone for feeling the weight of the expectations tied to them.
But you have to remember that these expectations have no substance. Do not fall into thinking the clothes are magic just because they are comfortable. Please.
