I'm just a person with a lot of experiences and opinions. Sometimes I talk about them. I'm often appalled, but rarely shocked. She/her, gay for my πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ wife, atheist, leftist, specialized dietary needs, neurodivergent, concerned about others, childfree. Etc.

If my body has always just been capable of generating this kind of heat, I'm upset that I've ever felt cold

And here I thought "participation trophies" was the dismissive BS thrown at OUR generation. Gens Z and Ξ± catching strays for something that (barely even) happened to millennials.

More of that lesser evil harm reduction I keep hearing about.

Blue isn't enough. It matters who.

I've been thinking for awhile that I should stop giving them money, this is just one more nail in the coffin. We'll figure it out πŸ’—

I used to get written as a cashier up if I failed to greet customers, scanned too slow, didn't bag, was "rude" (aka no small talk,) visibly ate or drank anything at my register, so on.

Now I'm considered entitled if I want my cashier to put stuff directly in the bag instead of on the counter.

Extraordinarily unintelligent design in humans:

Most mammals go through something called estrous after ovulation, where uterine blood is reabsorbed if an embryo doesn't implant.

Instead, we expel it. And it fucking sucks.

"whenever pressed they always seem to claim that they did" LMAO, no. I voted for Cornell, and I'll say I voted for Cornell.

Extraordinarily unintelligent design in humans:

If you have ovaries, estrogen regulates your internal thermostat. And then it stops being as regular when you hit middle age so you get wonky signals that turn that thermostat way up or way down for no good reason! 😭

(This SUCKS)

Extraordinarily unintelligent design in humans:

Half the population have easily-infected mucus membranes right next to waste disposal and the other half have urethras through a gland that gets larger throughout life.

Pink blob in a box thinks, "this has been working well for me long term," and then starts to emerge from the box with the thought, "I'll share this with reddit, maybe someone else can benefit." Pink blob gets punched back into the box by a fist that yells, "that can't work stupid bitch!" Big downvote arrow. Pink blob in a box with thicker walls than the start thinks, "never again." The end.

What on earth is with these people who are apologists for genocide backing politicians they literally vote for calling you a genocide supporter for refusing to vote for the genocide supporters? This is the second one I've seen you post about and it's just bizarre.

Yeah most people aren't doing Eminem unless they can actually do it; that's a show-off move

I also would add any song that's about instrumental solos more than lyrics. Standing up there for five minutes during a Pink Floyd guitar riff is going to bore everyone. (This very much includes Free Bird. Also, Tequila. It's not funny, you're not the first, just don't sing if you don't want to.)

The answer is probably what you're most enthusiastic about singing, because if you're a fan and know the song, you can get a good response even doing something obscure.

Surprisingly, in my years of going to karaoke, I've never heard anyone do Piano Man, despite Billy Joel being a v popular choice.

Scenes From an Italian Restaurant. It's more than 7 minutes long, and the odds are very bad that you can pull off the fast patter sections.

Tennessee Whisky is a super overdone song, and I dislike it more every time I hear it.

Picture. Overdone AND it's an ode to cheating by a garbage person.

Yeah, it's infuriating that the platform of a rich white man is, once again, the priority over basic human rights

Bullying breaks people. Sometimes it turns inward, sometimes it turns outward, but it always sucks for everyone involved. Being kinder to each other would solve a lot of problems, but the crabs in the bucket just have to tear each other down.

Headline: A dark money group is secretly funding high-profile Democratic influencers

An initiative aimed at boosting Democrats online offers influencers up to $8,000 a month to push the party line. All they have to do is keep it secret - and agree to restrictions on their content.

I would give almost anything to know in advance that gluten and other inflammatory proteins were slowly destroying my guts and I would eventually be unable to eat most food. Maybe if I could cut some of it early, I wouldn't have to be so restricted now.

I miss chocolate.

Center text in cycle asks When is it okay to criticize the Democrats? Top arrow says they lose an election, pointing to "What are they supposed to do? They don't have all 3 branches of government." Next arrow says they collaborate with fascists, pointing to "Now is not the time for infighting. We need to be united, and they're the best we have." Next arrow says primaries approach, pointing to "We need to appease moderates. Just let us nominate the worst guy for now, we'll push them left later." Next arrow says the most evil Democrats are chosen, pointing to "It's too close to an election, you'll make them lose to Trump." Start again at top arrow.

I would much rather everyone who is purportedly "faking for attention" gets attention than a single person die of neglect.

(Also, if you think someone is faking anything "for attention," you probably just don't believe in experiences other than your own and you suck.)

I'm old enough to remember all the cries of "the Democrats are trying, but nothing can pass the Senate without a supermajority! There's nothing we can do about it!"

There clearly was.

The ratchet effect is fcking real. Stop defending them.

Science: Thousands of People Will Die This Weekend Because of Daylight Saving Time Research shows the cost -- both human and economic -- of daylight saving time is incredibly high.

The spring time change literally kills people. (It causes other problems, too, but I think those are less important than all the death.)
