Tomatoes [they/them]

Yep, the worst kind of story. “Be careful what you wish for, because you might get fine print.”

Main characters: make wish Monkey’s Paw: gives wish and something else Main characters: Oh, the problem was me wanting the reasonable thing, not that I trusted a really shady entity in asking for it! Me: May I leave this planet now?

Uncritical, naive, gullible… no, I think credulous works fine there.

ROFL! I’ll see myself out.

I personally cannot distinguish satire from reality. And no, it’s not because I’m credulous, but because every day incredible things happen. I don’t need fake headlines that are just as crazy as the real headlines.

I wish it was the latest. This animal abuse has been going on a long time.

I always had vibes of why Click is so bad, that it cheats at evoking emotion, that the main character is an ass and still doesn’t earn his torture–and that torture goes on and on and on and …!–and that he doesn’t even learn any valuable lessons in the end!

Then Big Joel did me the favor of analyzing why Click is so terrible. So yeah, even without seeing CK, the choice is laughably easy.

There’s a video by Shaun that taught me pretty much all of this for the first time. It’s kinda sad that my history education was like “Bombs dropped, war over”

I keep thinking about that, and I keep coming back to how the ones being lied to will double down on “but the ____ actually are very powerful! That’s why they’ve taken so much for themselves! That’s why they have so many protections!”

I’ve had a conversation like that.

Finish that “non-violence is ineffective” essay (it’s dense). Join the collective on the front lines. Results: A) we gather steam and ultimately succeed. B) martyrdom gives my death meaning. C) prison provides healthcare and three squares. D) prison is so awful that we revisit B.

As far as using non conventional pronouns irl, you probably haven’t heard it since it is genuinely dangerous to be outed in a lot of places.

This is usually true enough for rule of thumb, but can vary wildly by geography. I would be willing to help smuggle a gender minority out of a rural zone, whereas I wouldn’t be too surprised to hear “ze/zim” in some cities. In general, the GSRM community will appreciate a cis ally signaling ally-ship. OP, as long as it’s safe for you, the community would appreciate your announcing pronouns; it signals that you are not a totally garbage human.

I’ve had no luck trying in Connect and Liftoff. Jerboa recently broke for me so I can’t check. Can’t do it in browser either. 😔

I wish I liked mushrooms. It’s a phobia for me. Maybe I can get therapy for it.

Really? Do tell. Asking for a friend. (Is it app specific?)
