Seriously Spooky Souris 🏳️‍🌈🎃 @Mous@awoo.space

Okay I generally enjoy Sanderson's writing and people I respect really love this series but my eyes actually rolled directly out of my head at this paragraph

@leafnoodle Do they deep fry entire artichokes? Please tell me they deep fry entire artichokes

I wish I had the resources to just take all of my friends on nice dates sometimes

Managed to find another beer I actually like. Woo! Consecration from Russian River Brewery.

Counterpoint: Puberty is EXTREMELY scary, and the adamses are all about horror

LB: Our car got broken into, lads. $400+ of stuff gone including a bunch of my partner's board games and most of my art supplies. Any help/signal boosting would be really appreciated!!!

Hey so where do I go to get nictitating membranes installed? Gimme those third eyelids.

Note to self: put spaces between emojis

I was out of the house for three hours and now I'd like to sleep for three years

@literorrery Yeah it's..... not great. I can understand not wanting a societal expectation of "new parents spend additional money to make others more comfortable", because babies are pretty expensive to begin with? But "parents shouldn't be obligated to do this" and "parents doing this is inherently bad" are such vastly different takes.

@literorrery (A bit of added context, this was all prompted by a thread of parents /against/ people giving out earplugs when taking a newborn on a long flight, because it suggests that children crying is an imposition on a shared space.)

@literorrery I agree that it's not possible to perfectly accommodate absolutely everyone, but it really steams me to see legitimate problems people face dismissed as people being "just difficult".

Is there a solution that leaves both infants and people with auditory processing problems 100% happy on a six hour flight together? No, but if we're communicative with each other and accept other people's needs as valid we might be able to reach a medium that makes it at least tolerable.

@Mous "If I can't get my baby to stop crying, I just ignore the crying and conserve my energy. Everyone else can do the same."

Go! Fuck!! Yourself!!! There are people with sensory processing problems who literally *can't* ignore noises like that, and if your idea of "sharing space" accommodates screaming infants but not autistic adults then you're an absolute prick.

2/2

"It's wrong to shit on mothers for having crying children on airplanes! We need to accept children in shared spaces!"

Sure, good! I agree! Let's be more understanding of each other!

It's probably because I painted a jack-o-lantern on the ass of mine. Nobody can deny the ass-o-lantern.
