"you don't know what you have until you lose it" works for things that suck too btw. sometimes you need to experience life without something for a while to realise oh damn that was some bullshit

my human vaporizing machine continues to mistify people

nobody else doing it like me. particularly because the way i’m doing it is needlessly difficult

#This is the representation I’ve been looking for

Does anyone want to get matching tattoos and immediately have an unsalvageable falling out

i’m sorry. what did you say? i didn’t hear you because my sleeve feels weird in my jacket and i’m short circuiting.

my corner store guy is a 50 year old man who's my best friend in the world and recently he was like "you're too pretty to be single I have some nephews you should meet. very handsome!" and I was like "a niece might be more up my alley" and he just got more excited and said "ah even better! I was overselling my nephews but my nieces are very beautiful"

wdym for no apparent reason it's because it's awesome

apparently youre supposed to perform. they love it when you perform. but it has to be authentic. they hate it when it's not authentic. but you have to perform.

big fan of when animals creche. Love to see so many fucking babies in one place

i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights

This is really funny on dark mode

On dark mode this is like a clown trying to hide behind a light pole.

Let people miss you. Let things unfold without your interference. Let life surprise you. Control is exhausting, trust is freedom.
