Of course. 😭 Sometimes I wish I could just talk to my animals.amd reason with them, but then I realize they would likely still not listen even if they had the power of human speech. See: every customer service job I've had
I've been there. And then my cat didn't like the food and tried to turn his nose up at it for days.
There's a certain comedy to my existence and transition that I've decided to embrace.
My mouth hurts and my voice is already starting to get all Teenage Boy on me, but life is meant for living, yeah?
Fresh on T, got braces put on my teeth this Monday...might as well join another choir. Why not.
You study a wooden signboard when entering an unexplored part of the map in a video game, it offers this reassurance:
...I'm realizing some things about myself that I should probably unpack with a therapist.
(It's me. I am the dog who is good at learning the wrong things. Oh no)
i'm being flip but when i think about the guys who are gassing preschools and putting children in camps and killing people both on and off camera--complaining about WHISTLES--i understand why dante was like no, we need way more kinds of hell. at least nine
Good news, I really like being on T. I feel so much better? It's hard to explain.
Me and who?
Fucking hero shit, that's what this is.
Same. As in:
We can save the local bookstore if we believe in ourselves...so let's all pull together and help these sensible used cars put on the best goddamn show this town has ever seen!
So proud, and so impressed by this
Doesn't need to be classical! Film soundtracks are great
Does anyone have recommendations for a music album that is:
- Instrumental or w/ minimal vocals (e.g. light choral backing)
- Mostly keys and strings, maybe some woodwind
- Sad / melancholy, but in a peaceful way
- Available for purchase, not just streaming
So I need you to be happy for me. Until I can be happy for myself again, I need you to do it for me, just for a while.
I don't feel that way about other people! I'm capable of being happy for my friends about their nice days...anything from getting married to having a really nice bagel sandwich, if it happens to someone I love, it's worthy of me sharing that enjoyment.
But that doesn't carry over to myself.
Lately I feel apologetic for being happy about anything. Or sad about anything, too. Like my life and feelings are sort of an embarrassment in the face of widespread fear and suffering.
Gotta be honest, it feels really hard to get excited about my life and these milestones I keep having when global events are so, you know, *gestures broadly*
I've got an appointment to start hormones in less than two weeks.
Which is very exciting and cool.
"we realize we are really stepping out on a limb" made me giggle
Shout out to my tablemates for New Year's Eve. You seemed lovely, I am sorry for rambling at you about my favorite queer paintings and Oscar Wilde.
Unfortunately all it takes is one cocktail I WILL be talking to you about John Singer Sargent and late Victorian gay gossip.
Evergreen
Fine, whatever, this random cat is your new god of the winter solstice
This looks so lovely and cozy
I'm really glad I saw it in theaters, but watching it at home where I can pause and enjoy the details is going to be a treat for me. And I wish so much I could get to see the costume pieces in person! The people who worked on those should be very proud.
I agree, it made me really happy to watch. All of the drama with the color choices and the shapes of windows...made my brain feel like it was making happy whirring sounds like a robot? Like it was enjoying all the input while also trying to keep up with processing? Hard to explain. 😅
if people’s kids are going hungry and it turns out the money for it went to the gold ballroom and they’re refusing to pay up because they can’t, I think one very particular category of French antiques will be coming back in fashion right quick if you know what I mean
We collected 72 letters. 🏳️⚧️ I am very tired but also very proud.
