Hey you know what, when you're in love, whatever works. So many people are lonely, at least they found each other. ๐Ÿฅน

This is how playing Pokemon Scarlett feels

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

RimWorld and modded Pokemon Scarlett.

On one hand i am adoring Scarlett more than i expected... On the other, what I enjoy is almost exclusively from the mod, so I don't know where to even talk about the fun i am having understanding I probably still wouldn't want to purchase the full game, even with all the fun I am having, because the jank is only tolerable for me on an emulator with mods.

RimWorld im really into a insectoids 2 mod run. About to try my hand at vanilla expanded genetics with Alpha Animals and Rimbees.

Im vibrating for stardew valley mobile update. It's been my favorite way to play and I wanna mod that, too. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

Flashbacks to when only the teacher and I understood A Modest Proposal and not being able to explain to anyone else in that class that i was appreciating that he was sassing the english NOT the actual idea of eating babies. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

It will do discord? That's amazing, I will have to look back into it. Discord has been awful for a while, but getting people to switch is impossible. ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

I haven't thought of those apps for years, I used Pidgin! I had to look up the program name.

I didn't realize there was deep lore in an egg_irl post, i took it as the comic it was.

Without that background information, (that is not included unless i stalk the OP, which doesn't feel like it would endear anyone to my participation) it feels close to a comic could reinforce the "you can't win trying to be supportive to queer people these days" energy since there's nothing clear about there being a boundary made by the other person in the comic? Maybe there's something i missed on the lemmy ui, I'm willing to admit!

As an older queer i am not quite sure when we decided clothing meant anything (again) since growing up it was something we already tried to work on in the queer community, just look into lesbian spaces and their attempts to uncouple femininity from being required to dress up. Have binary identities and enforcing trans people to present a particular way backfired into hyper gendered expressions being required?

Another question is how can the community help individuals vulnerable to invalidation of parts of their identity? I know everyone needs support as a whole and in general in their lives. The ability to stand strong in yourself in the storm can't be manufactured without a foundation, and how do we help newbies find that with the atmospheres as tense as they are, even in queer spaces?

Is that question really "in good-faith" to "that law doesn't apply in my country"?

Sounds like we should have made ISPs government owned then!

That giving of yourself and being discerning, you could make sure to find balanced relationships.

People lie, to you and to themselves. Everyone wants to say they're going to be their best person when times are tough. Reality can be quite different when the pain kicks in or dynamics change.

But at this point after countless emergencies while being the one to stand up in the end to carry the sisyphean boulders, the truth is people are going to stand back in a panic when shit hits the fan and I'm going to be the one to figure things out.

Best compromise I have settled on is surrounding myself with people who will help when I ask. It's up to me to ask, plan, and keep all our heads above water, which is exausting, but they won't blow me off.

It's the best I have been able to find of the available optional combination of traits in people i find attractive. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Buuuut having them on your truck makes "deez nutz" jokes funnier!

I guess if the person knows about the truck nuts, that is.

Or if you're at your truck when you make the joke...
