I'm sorry, I am much more important than whatever you are doing. Plus this fabric did not have my hair on it. Fixed that for you.

Not having kids, I do miss out on embarrassing them. I have to settle for hearing the freakout on headset when I say β€œDoes your mom know you’re talking like that/not doing your homework?”

The "Body Count Checker" Website Is Liveβ€”And It's Bullshit Journalist Taylor Lorenz explores the the cultural significance of the technically meaningless "body count checker" website.

Few things are more terrifying to mediocre men than a woman with enough experience to know how completely unimpressive he is.

The Internet is a weird place. Roommate and I are on the way to brunch with a friend. He just moved here and we haven’t spoken in a few years because he’s not on socials anymore. We met almost 20 yrs ago on a Canadian comedy groups forums. This is the first time we will see him in person. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

7/? So yes, my life COULD be a lot worse.
But things you may take for granted: friends, family, health, a job, acceptance of yourself... have never been there for me. I'm just not "socially acceptable" and trying to be so made me suicidal. Guess it's my fault for being born.

6/? It's not just "socially unacceptable" identities that get pushed out. I'm a cishet white woman and so weird that I get labeled "toxic" and put on blacklists. I'm not "girly", I like "man" things. And I don't feel that makes me enby, nothing wrong with enbies, just not how I feel about myself.

5/? There is currently no cure. There is research into one, but it won't be ready before I die. Yes, I've been facing down knowing my approximate death date since 22. Maybe my current drugs will let me live longer, no one knows.
I just want to be normal, or at least only ADHD/AuDHD...

4/? Just not all the sexism in engineering/software/tech.
Would it be too much to be given credit for my own work and not be told to "smile more and be nicer" at my performance reviews? While grumpy male colleges are given perfect scores.

3/? That said, yes, I want more to life that just being thankful I am alive. I want someone to ROMANTICALLY care about me, not just as the woman who keeps their life together. 2 husbands and a partner so far, and I'm just their manager.
I have a Master's degree, I did like working! ...

2/? despite his desire to not be married. He and I will always be family, but we don't have a "traditional" marriage.
We were extremely lucky that when he was laid off, the job he found was for the same salary, less stress, and allows work from home. We so far have kept up with rising food costs.

I see several people blocked me because of this post, so I want to dig into some things.
I'm lucky to be alive. Without modern medicine, I'd have died in excruciating pain decades ago. My Roommate (legal husband) provides good health insurance, a roof over my head, and good food... 1/?

Geology is pretty cool. I love natural mineral deposits! Also semi-precious minerals.

Yeah midwestern casseroles usually add enough water to cook the noodles plus evaporation so you’re left with thick sauce at the end. I definitely don’t cook this way anymore though

you don't have to read graphic descriptions of SA even if the rapist is running the country right now

you don't have to read or watch graphic depictions of bombing innocents even if it's happening right now

you can be angry about and take action against wrongs without exposing yourself to trauma

The recipe usually has you mix water or milk with the condensed base, thus making it a thick soup

I agree with a kind of stew, so yes a soup.

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.
