The safest, sanest place to be around a narcissist is as far away as possible. But there’s no escape from 45. All we can do is hope he gets impeached soon or something. I don’t know how many of us will make it to 2020 if this keeps up, I don’t expect to make it.

As stated on birdsite; Except that’s not just a strategy, it’s what 45 actually thinks. No matter what happens it supports a narcissist’s world view. It’s nigh impossible to challenge them if you’re nearby so every narcissist is surrounded by more neurotypical folks who’ve bought in. I’ve met people with autistism, bipolar, borderline, anxiety, depression, multiple personalities and of course people with PTSD like me and all of us are incredibly safe compared to a narcissist.

Insisting Black dudes play sports for your amusement and yet somehow NOT being cool with the same Black dudes protesting very peacefully is imho shitty behavior up there with yelling at your server that your moral superiority means you never give tips. Look, y’want your religious celebrations so badly, at least understand that someone makes that happen.
By age 35, the rise of the middle class should have brought about the end of an era and the downfall of a dynasty. You should find yourself with no master to serve and no devices other than your wit and your sword. #Sanjuro #CloserToFortyThough
story time, alcohol, urine
Not my story but his. My invertebrate biology professor on college was a pretty cool guy. At one point decades in the past, he attends a conference in the Bahamas. There’s a lot of drinking in the evening... which in turn means he needs to use the bathroom.
He stumbles towards the urinal, unzips, does his thing and FLASH! the whole toilet lights up.
His first thought is Wow, what was in that drink anyway?
tmi Tuesday
I honestly don’t know where my sex life is going, if anywhere. It doesn’t help that I worry about being perceived as old, a failure, and desperately broken. I wish I had a more fun thing to share, maybe I’ll talk about dolphin tf or something later.
tmi Tuesday
No car access(told I was too inept to drive), no job (told I needed to focus on my studies), no internet. I barely masturbated as a result of indoctrination, lack of knowledge, lack of fap material, a huge haze of depression.
So... I was sort of trained to be asexual almost. I don’t really know how to flirt, i have been in relationships but it takes nearly nothing to scare me away from dating or sexual encounters in meatspace, and while I have a libido I have no clue if it’s normal.
tmi Tuesday
So. I’ve always looked younger than my actual age. I went through college looking like a high schooler and I went through high school looking not good. Part of puberty hitting late was not enough food. When I started college I was 5’9” and 125 lbs. or so.
Not only did I mature later but I’d been indoctrinated that I was a misfit ugly horror and nobody would date or screw me. My parents didn’t notice my lack of social life; I was pulling down good SATs and a 4.0 GPA. (Cont)
politics/society
People harshing on the Starbucks thing. Oh no homeless folks will show up. Why do you even give a cf? These people have literally nothing, may as well give some temporary shelter. Look if they don’t panhandle in the store and don’t fuck up the bathroom, the worst things they can do are smell bad and remind me that I’m an uncomfortably short distance from dying on the street too. I dunno. I wish I could do something real to help and I can’t and it’s frustrating.

@Leucrotta western beauty standards?
Y’know. I was gonna skip “Solo,” because it made me feel exploited (“hey you’re aging and nerdy, so you’ll go apeshit for a Han movie right?”). But now I’m getting the impression it pisses off the usual “oh NOES they cruelly inflicted diversity into Star Wars” types, which automatically makes it more appealing, and it *does* look like it has a train heist (yes I know that being appealing makes me aging and nerdy).
What do y’all think?
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
