I cannot remember the last time I had a satisfying orgasm

I think i just attract people who love to avoid me somehow

I've been hurt too much by people who just couldn't be honest with me. By people who would rather avoid me in the name of not upsetting me, which of course actually upsets me far worse than what they were avoiding. And every one of them refused to see that.

Sometimes I wish the Vulcan mind meld was real

“Chernobyl” would be a beautiful name for a girl

I don't want to give up on her because I think I'll finally give up on everyone at that point

What am I supposed to do when I say that her avoidance is a problem, and her reaction is even more avoidance? Like, what?

My indomitable hope in individuals constantly being tested

It's not my fault she's like this. It's not my responsibility to help her when she refuses to help herself. So why do I still want to try to fix her?

But what do you do when you and someone else have tried and tried and tried.. And TRIED, and it just doesn't get through.

"You can't set yourself on fire for someone else" is a phrase I've used twice this weekend for someone else. But I still want to set myself on fire for her.

I'm so sad about how things turned out with my housemate. And I'm so frustrated that it feels like there's no way for her to understand me. It sometimes feels like she doesn't want to. Or like she lives in a different world

Look at this CRIMINAL. He’s guilty of the CRIME of stealing a muffin and he’s so happy with himself

learning elaborate calligraphy for the bit of sending a friend a parchment with elaborately written upon it "Fart" the 90 cents postage would be worth it

I was worried about the tactile sensation of dragging the joycon mice, but they use haptic feedback really smartly to help you feel the movement. The motion and mouse controls are solid. The game is smooth as hell and looks fun! I just didn't get my energy back before the playtest window closed 🤷‍♀️

Okay I see what Nintendo is going for with Drag x Drive. But it's really funny to me that the game about disability sports ran up against my disability before the tutorial was even over

In Donkey Kong 64, the only playable woman character is Tiny Kong. Her unique ability is to shrink herself in size. This is a representation of how the patriarchy forces women to minimalize their experiences and existence while still supporting the men around them. In this essay I will

"Hey lois, remember when I had a run-in with that one twink from side 7?"

Ooh! I'm not there yet, I'm spending a lot of time in Kick Club

It makes me wanna pick up pico-8 again and just whip out some small games again

UFO 50 reminds me of when my dad would come home from work with a bunch of MSDOS shareware games on floppies. Often completely incomprehensible games that you'd figure out just by playing and dying over and over. This is a compliment

long covid gave me dyslexia :) i had never before in my life had difficulty with reading or writing, and now it's a daily struggle :)

Omg me too! I've been struggling with letters or even wholeass words that just aren't there, or got transposed. I've also been struggling with left/right or east/west discernment which was never an issue before either!

I've been waiting for this

First one, then the other
