@typhlosion Decks /very much/ have unique personalities and tend to say different things. One of the biggest pieces of advice I can give is to find a deck that has a metaphor space that's resonant for you personally. There's a /lot/ of decks out there. Look at the art first and some will just... feel right? More resonant?
Lewd limerick
I've been wanting to write a limerick about annilingus for literal months but I could never quite figure out the rhymes before today.
It might be kinda nice if there was a way to prompt people to read the About page for an instance before registering? I get the sense a lot of cultural conflicts I'm seeing or hearing about are due to people not realizing they're entering niche communities where expectations of behavior are not what they are in the overculture.
Does softblocking work on #Mastodon ?
@typhlosion as someone who alternates between posting lewd stuff and being kinda sex-averse, I think it's the absolute best :)
@alyx@witches.town So if you're curious, http://critiquemydickpic.tumblr.com/ [nsfw, obv] has the full range of dick pic quality on display. Some are good? Still fundamentally dick pics though.
mh
Every once in a while I have to remind myself that BP2 /doesn't get better/. This is just gonna be what my life is. Meds make it bearable but that isn't the same as being cured, and even then bads still bubble up.
And that's part of why I don't really like the term "mental illness". Illness sounds like something that comes over you and can be cured, rather than something that's baked into who you are.
dissociation, sad
I can't tell if I'm lowkey dissociating or just really tired from last night (is there a difference?) but either way I feel disconnected and also kinda sad. It's bedtime and I'm hoping sleep will help.
...except that I gotta get up and deal with the whole work thing tomorrow, early. Not exactly the best for mood resetting.
I guess these random sads are some of the least severe they've ever been (thnaks, meds) but it still kinda sucks?
@binary Well, you can, if you want to be :)
Food and Drugs; Administration
@rey fav-ing this because the tags made me laugh
One thing federation makes me worry about is instances that are spun up on a whim without commitment to hosting/maintenance/moderation on the part of the admin. I feel like people who join online social spaces have an implicit (possibly unjustified) expectation that the space will last indefinitely, but I don't know if every admin wants to be signing up to do the work indefinitely.
@rey awoo.space is working off of a federation whitelist actually, hand-built by the mods. I have concerns but there's some definite upsides.
Moving to @starkatt
I'm a leftist trans gay fox girl. More than one thing can be true at a time. I believe in agency, subjectivity, and beauty.
In my day job, I'm an apprentice electrician.
