Nothing to See Here Folks

That said, it's normal to make friends in that space who you hang out with, outside of kink stuff. When that happens and people asked where I met my friend, my go-to line was "Spin-class," which is a very funny joke if you know me even a little. Very not my scene.

Well, funnily enough, while I was working at a homeless shelter, we had a very similar rule because of the homeless stigma. If a guest from the Shelter sees you outside of work, you don't acknowledge or approach them. They can approach you, but you don't tell whoever you're with where you know them. The guest gets to decide if they want to share that info.

Smash cut to me being out with a friend I met at the dungeon a very long time ago. I bump into a guest from the shelter who approaches me to chat. My friend asks how I know the guest, and without thinking, I blurt out "spin class" before remembering that's my go to lie for how I ment dungeon friends. These two proceed to have a conversation, neither fully understood.

Friend: ooohhhh okay i get it. Spin class! Me too. Stopped taking that class a while ago tho.

Guest. Oh for real? That's sick man, good for you! You got a good set up now?

Friend: The best!! I've taken up wood working so my furniture is all custom. Got plenty of space to do "spin" at home. It's coming together.

Guest: Hell yeah brother!!!

Friend: was really good to have my own space during the rona, but man it's lonely! I kinda miss the group dynamics.

Guest: Yeah, i heard that from my homie when he got out of "Spin class!" But it's for the best.

Friend: it can be, but its not for everybody. Can be safer to Spin in a group.

Guest: i know that. Lost a few homie to "spinning" alone. At least at the "class" you got other eyes on you.

Friend: I'm sorry to hear that! You know some elements of "Spinning" are risky but you never think anyone would get hurt. So, my buddy here still a real hard ass for safety?

Guest: oh man you dont even know. They revamped our whole fire escape plan.

Friend: Oh shit! They did that back when i was in Spin class too!

Guest: still improving the system i guess.

Friend: they still keep a bunch of robes outside in a shed so people who get out can cover up?

Guest: Yes!!!

Friend: Did you know it's their fault we have a 30 second rule!

Guest: Damn really!?! Makes sense tho, if there's a fire you gotta get out fast!

Friend: Yeah, I Never gave it much thought before they brought it up, but yeah the last thing you want is a fire when you're all tired up!

Guest: Yeah, that's true. I didn't know they came up with the rule, tho. I do like having the space between the beds clear...

Friend: Yeah it's so annoying when people block the path with their shit.

Guest: Yeah there's not enough space between beds for people to be hording shit.

Friend: Yeah! I loved that they always got people to keep their area clear.

Guest: not gonna lie i hate being told to clean up but it is better that way.

Friend: Yeah... haha.

Guest: well it was nice chatting with you brother.

Friend: you too, man! See ya around!

Guest: see ya!

@mageless

Bring them home but let’s also make sure they are killed in bombings before that- i mean what?

Anyways the karma has started from biden and it will get you all genociders. Its not 20 or 40 kids its THOUSANDS of kids suffering from burns amputations starvation and death but am 100% sure you monsters do not see them as humans and that is why you are just not capable of any empathy whatsoever.

Palestine’s flag has reached the entire globe.Thousands have held it in their hands who didn’t even know a place called Palestine existed. And israel never imagined this would happen. Anyone with basically an ounce of humanity and intelligence is able to recognize the relentless hunger of Zionists for land and power.

So yea this is the beginning of israel’s end.

And the suffering of these thousands of innocent people and kids thats been happening BEFORE oct 7 will one day end and everyone complicit will pay.

Thanks to all the jews who came forward spoke the truth and are standing in support of Palestine and its freedom from the occupiers. And thats how we know how fake the AnTiSEMiTe screams of Zionists are.

what a great ask to cover a few topics i’ve been wishing to cover. this is like the holy grail of #basicziostereotype. let’s go:

1. if you actually bothered to read the stuff i write, or like engage with them bLoOd tHirSTy ZiOs, you’d find out that we don’t all think the same, or support the same things. we definitely don’t have a beehive mind. one of the main reasons why hamas even managed to pull oct7 in the first place, was how split israelis were politically and ideologically. one of the main issues were, and remains, how to approach palestinians btw. so yeah, being zionist or even living in Israel doesn’t automatically mean you drink pal blood for tea time, yanno.

2. i’m going to be really controversial here, try to stay seated and not go off the rails- being israeli/zionist? it doesn’t mean you support the government’s actions. shocking, i know. for some reason everyone literally everywhere it makes sense for them to oppose to the government, but when israelis say it???? “lol ya lying you voted for them” (well let’s not really go there it’s for another post and the US voted for trump fucking again) “lol the protests don mean nothin theyre just for show” (sure bc people get arrested over them left and right just for funssies) “doesn’t mean you support the gov any less” (so what are protests for in your country for) “you still live in israel” (you still live in….[insert any country the colonized the land you’re currently standing on])

3. i say government and not IDF, like you did, because (and i’ve mentioned this before SO MANY FUCKING TIMES and hopefully some of yall will remember this part at some point)- the IDF makes no decisions on their own. this isn’t even about israel, it’s about basic civic knowledge that you should have acquired in high school. you people don’t understand how completely dumb you sound when you say about the military of a country not ruled by its military that “if the idf gave a fuck, they wouldn’t have”. it just literally doesn’t work that way. when a country is not ruled by the military- they. don’t. call. the. shots. they only follow rules. yeah, they (they, in israel, being the highest ranking person in the IDF, the commander in chief), constantly advise the government (in israel, mainly the PM and minister of defense directly) and sit at some cabinets. see how i said ~some~ and not all? if you’ll ever listen to the IDF spokesman, he always mentions on his PSAs that they’ll operate under state/government orders.

4. your glee regarding the israeli hostages being in danger, but also biden’s announcement regarding his health issues, sure is a very interesting way to support human rights, but go off.

5. lol bestie, just cause you found out now, doesn’t mean we didn’t have pro pals since like forever lol love how some of yall are sure this started with you.

6. lol okahhhy “this is the beginning of israel’s end” lol bc you remembered to join in on the festivities now after 77 years lol 🎵cause the party don’t start till i waaaaaalk innnn🎵

7. since you’re in the game of finding out about world wide atrocities, are you interested in some more, or are you just interested when jews are involved???

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

Excellent update on year 2 of this program:

Sure, people complain. Rich people are always going to complain about taxes. But they never flee the way they threaten to, largely because whether or not they like to admit it, they prefer to live in the kinds of areas where things are made nicer by the taxes they don’t want to pay.

Aren't you going to say goodbye to your best friend before leaving?

A few people have been asking me about the Thai Goncharov remake so I figured I’d share some quick facts to get y’all started! Let me know if you have questions :) (Image descriptions included as alt text.)

Happy Pride Month!

Faust is back for the 5th time! If you want to use the flag of your choice as an avatar, they're under the cut. They're free to use as long as it's for personal use only.

Damian, mildly annoyed at Bruce at the moment: It's quite simple. Batmam steals young children from their bed, usually nine or ten or so. Then he takes you to his lair and give you a deal.

Damian: If you can beat him in a game of your choosing, he will train you to be Robin. If you lose, you are eaten. I beat him in a classic fencing game. He's quite good with swords, but he wasn't very good with the sport itself.

Tim, standing next to him: Yeah, I beat him at a memory card game. I like totally cheated, but I'm too old for him to eat now, so ot doesn't matter.

Damian, nodding: Yes. The worst part of the job is disposing of failed Robins bones. He usually sucks them clean and leaves them all over the floor.

Tim: Yeah, its messy. But after you hit, like 15 he stops trying to eat you, so that's cool.

Damian: I have not yet reached 15. I'm still in danger. If you have more questions, ask Nightwing, as he was the first to avoid being eaten.

Same interviewer, at a different date: Mr. Nightwing. Is it true Batman tries to eat potential Robins?
