Wild Gasmask queue openings are always an insight into who the whole "hearing vs. listening" thing.

Approaching things with balance does not guarantee results, any more than you would going to an extreme to achieve it. If it involves the free will of others and getting people to communicate back? Good luck bc free will is a mofo.
I dont expect people to understand this. I cant feign any surprise when people assume my detachment is a bad thing, or they think that means Im just bottling stuff up. Nope... I just aint trying to waste my energy.
Picking my poison with time zones, but this time for KINKJOB. https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html Queue is opening up on Monday and Im already prepping.
Re:last toot
I think the specific thing that makes it even more frustrating than it is inherently, is the irony that I have these kinds of things happen to me....And yet, I often a met with silence when I am trying to communicate to people about something I want or to ask the community for input on something.... Definitely an imbalance and one-way street.
one of the things that frustrates me about being so out of sync with everybody (friends, hanging put/social schedules, furries, geek groups, etc...) is just how easily somebody can push something on to me, without considering what I'm up to or what my schedule is. Then I have to be the b**ch because I have to put my foot down and say "Hey, Im stopping this. I wish that you had talked to me first." It also means I complicate things in some instsnces simply because people did it out of order.
// 9/11 bad thoughts
I admit. I really hate today. my thoughts about this day are pretty callus. 9/11 has been used for too many selfish motives, or as justification to stir hate (biggest example being Islamphobia).
More or less hide from social media every time this date comes around. Twitter is gonna be a load of crap. I will hand it to Mastodon that at least content warning / trigger warning cuts exist.
Adonis is one of the most chill individuals I have met. I first came across his awesome fursuit dancing but there are so many layers to uncover.
One of the intentions I have been manifesting is for Adonis to be able to get top surgery.

The fundraiser donations seem to have stopped, largely because he has been working crazy hours to Get Things Done
I have done my best to leave the fetish community alone. Work-personal crossover has lead me down that more isolated path, but given that people are still trying to use my personal chat accts as a way to get ahold of my business... I will continue to keep my distance

(2/2) I'm not unhappy about political views being expressed in fandom.... but it's a damn shame that I have to invite more people to the #blockparty. Keep showing yourselves, bigots.
immigration (xenophobic language)
Even in something as light-hearted as a telegram chat about anthro comics, it seems I have encountered a xenophobe.
do I know this person well enough to even feel remotely comfortable ?ing them about the expeorence that has lead them to call undocumented immigrants "illegals"? No. I shouldnt discount thier exp, but I sure wont stand for thier conduct.
