That makes sense.

I only really started watching Trisha like a year ago... and honestly, I only watched her to laugh at her "crying on the kitchen floor" videos.
And I liked her mukbangs too...
But lately her videos have been getting stranger and stranger. She posted "The BEST cover of Shallow by Lady Gaga" And it was so terrible that it honestly hurt my feelings a little bit. I kinda got offended.
And she had another video where she smashed her face into a deep dish pizza...

What pronouns do you prefer to use?

I've been so used to people putting their pronouns in their siggies on Pantheon and in their tags on Discord. I guess here I've got to get used to asking people their pronouns. Please bear with me, friends!

I've gotten into the habit of usually saying "they/them" when I'm not sure someone's gender.

And that's an interesting way of seeing it.

There's been several times online recently though... Where I talk to someone and I'm imagining them in my head as for example, a woman. Then they reveal to me that they were male all along and I end up feeling really stupid because I always saw them like a sister or a close girl friend and I share really personal things with them that I probably wouldn't have told a cis male.

I love the internet that it does expose me to different kinds of people.
At the same time, I have a hard time figuring out what each person's pronouns are sometimes.. And even worse...
When people tell "Jokes" I can never seem to understand that they are jokes and I end up getting easily hurt and offended and sometimes I burn bridges over what I usually later realize was just a "joke"

i think they/them is fine but you need to know galla's preferred pronouns are hey you/the deadline was yeterday!

ok, one super awkward story coming up

ok so backinfo; when i get sick my face hair falls out and gets really wispy and i have a really round face now(it was always ovalish but with the weight i lost the jawline) making me look less mas+fem andro and more fem andro when the face hair is all pulled out

ok so i have to go get some paperwork done and there is a security guard at the front door and one at the desk. i guess because of a lot of unrest they had to actually check pockets and do the little wand thing so as to keep things safe but anyway i am dressed kind of fem neutral and i get the usual 'miss' that comes when i am not aggressively masculine in dress and expression(something that was easy when i was a teen but is so hard for me now) and i have to set my stuff down. the sitting guy is at crotch level and i am in jeans so he notices i'm not exactly the miss the other guard called me out as and we have a brief awkward moment then i wait in line to be wanded. when it is my turn the standing guard gets to crotch-level as well and there is a bit of a pause now, here is where things had one of two ways to go, either i get pulled out of line and drop trou or we all pretend really hard that noone noticed i brought along my little friend boris johnson that day x''D

long and short i got miss'ed very assertively in that way you only get when someone is doing their level best not to clock you x''D i felt so bad for these milk-bread dudes

Hey, does anybody remember or recall this??? o_o; I just had a weird nostalgic flashback about it the other day.

My sister sending a text to proofread in like, ten minutes and getting mad because I didn't tell her what I changed;;; gurl I'm doing this for free for you last minute how bout last time you need to write an article for work U DON'T BE SO DAMN LATE????

I'm cis female but sometimes feel androgynous ouo

And I do a lot of crossplay xD

So sleepyyy.
night night peeps. x.x

fair warning I'm like. drunk again. for the fourth weekend in a row i really hope this isn't becoming an Actual Problem--

WHY do they CARE how we fucking TAKE A FUCKING PISS it's not like there's a fucking pee tactics exam jegus fucking fuck

oh man I have a lot of things to say but idk if i can say them properly

whatever i'll make an attempt and maybe fix up shit in the morning ehhhhh

ANYWAYS if he identifies as trans male, use male pronouns for him. idc whether he's joking or not.

ALSO YEAH SEX AVERSION/REPULSION is def a thing and uhhhhhh... i am really not an expert in this subject besides being ace sorry. but it's a thing.

SO ONE OF MY UNCLES er he's not actually an uncle, he's a friend of my dad's, in mandarin we just call them all uncles, whoops, uh

anyways yeah he gave me some amount of dr seuss books and ider if this was among that

anyways yeah i remember that even if it wasn't physically in my bookshelf

FUN FACT BY THE WAY, EAT SOME STUFF before you start drinking. preferably stuff that's carbs and grease. that's why pizza is such a good pregame food. also drink a cup of water (like a literal red cup) between drinks. trust me, I know how to take care of bodies because I'm That Friend during college parties and GODS FRESHMEN stop doing the bad.

anyways uh this advice brought to you by, espy being stupid as fuck and having anxiety issues.

alcohol doesn't make me drunk or buzzed instead it makes me sleepy straightaway with no in-between. so it's no fun. giving into the sleepiness means i'll probably wake up nauseous anyway

Fun fact I've never been drunk. I've been close to it, though, but never actually drunk. I stop myself when feeling tipsy. ._."

I mean, that happens in American English too. My family calls my mom's best friend and her husband "aunt" and "uncle".

It's hard to tell when I'm drunk. I had to intentionally try, because I'd never experienced it before and I wanted to get some subjective understanding of it.

Turns out... it's hard. >.> My tolerance is stupidly high. I had gone to a St. Patrick's Day party with Scott Ransoomair (my first celebrity encounter, actually) and I can't even remember how many drinks I'd had -- eight or nine, I'm sure -- and I didn't even get buzzed. It took being mildly sick when I was almost 30 years old to lower it enough to work.

It was only that first time that I got drunk enough to be unable to walk a straight line. At that level of inebriation, I'm a little bit loud when I talk, and my sense of humor gets even more random than it usually is... but other than that, I was still coherent enough that I was writing code that proved to still be up to my usual standards when reviewed after the fact. I only stopped because -- as I continued to push myself past "I'm not actually interested in alcohol anymore but this is supposed to be an educational experience" -- my manual dexterity got bad enough that I was having trouble typing. (I actually live-blogged the experience at the time, with my wife adding some notes and taking over once I couldn't type anymore.)

But since then... My tolerance has gotten a little weaker as I've gotten older, and that experience made it easier for me to recognize it, but from the outside you'd still have a hard time telling I'm at all intoxicated. From the inside, all I notice is a slight headache and that it's a little easier for standing up to make me lightheaded, and maybe I'll notice a slight lag between moving my body and getting the feedback that I've moved. If I like what I'm drinking enough to go past my usual "it was good but I'm not interested in having any more" level I might get a slight tingle in my face. But I'm still talking straight, walking straight, and thinking with impairment no worse than being low on sleep. (I know better than to try to drive even if I don't feel impaired, because ADHD is enough of a driving impairment on its own -- even a loss of reaction time small enough that I don't notice it is something I'm not going to risk.)

I don't know what my tolerance is. I don't rally drink

I don't drink very often. I'm no teetotaler; I don't mind the thought of alcohol at all. But not only is it way too hard for me to actually feel anything from it, I don't like that feeling, either. I don't understand how people find it enjoyable.

So given that I don't drink often, and I don't drink much when I do, it had better be good stuff. I can afford to be picky, because I'm not going to be disappointed if there's nothing I want to drink.

And so I've found that I like dark stouts, and I'm not fond of the taste of hops. This means that you're never going to see me get anywhere close to any beer that's mass-produced on a level broad enough to advertise it. I can't even stand the smell of Budweiser.

I've also found that I like some kinds of wine, and mead can be pretty good if it's prepared by someone who actually cares about it. (I had a friend back when I lived in California that took up making honey mead as a hobby; his stuff was good.) Somewhat surprisingly, I also like hot sake and some kinds of dark rum. (I don't like Meyers. Bacardi is all right. Kraken is good.)

I realize it makes me sound like an alcohol snob, and I suppose at some level I am, but it's more a matter of knowing my taste and not wanting to get drunk or spend money on something I don't like.

One of my friends also really likes Kraken; I’ll ask what the other one he likes is.

The only two beers I’m willing to drink are Fat Tire and Blue Moon; both are dark ales w a lot of hops and kind of fruity.

Blue Moon is nowhere near dark enough for me. You can see your hand through the bottle. Give me a Wreck Alley.

He says he also likes Captain Jerry.

You mean Sailor Jerry? I've seen it around, but I haven't ever tried it.

Sailor Jerry, yes. I’m not words-ing well.

:o Speaking of drinking...
Been wanting to get into our bottle of huckleberry vodka. <x} But haven't got a reason to yet.

@ Kitty: Same. <x} I get tipsy FAST, and I know my limit is 2 before I start to get more than tipsy. <x'D I'm a silly/annoying drunk.

I'm with Coda here, I can still walk a straight line when drunk and think coherently (albeit I will express really dark humor and an antisocial attitude). However I'm also very picky with alcohol and I think the last time I bought anything was a bottle of vodka roughly a year ago - out of curiousity to try one of these "make your own liquor" things which is basically just a bunch of dried fruit, sugar and leaves to throw into already existing alcohol.

speaking of alcohol, i've only drunk WKD, and that was at home for my birthday. i get wildly nervous abt things, so mum had part of one and gave the rest to dad bc she felt shitty.

also, yeah, i can recommend eating something that's greasy / fatty first before drinking alcohol. that's what mum told me anyways, and i'd eaten a wrap, i think?

my dad has a mild problem w/ alcoholism, i think he had it worse in the past, but he is trying to make his own mead and adding cherries into it. (i may or may not be predisposed to addiction as a result of mum smoking when i was still in the womb / having a generally addictive personality / possible adhd)

for more context, WKD is basically a sort of soda but with a small alcohol content. like, 0.4%? very mild.

actual shout into the void post: so someone reblogged an old drawing i did of wilson for pride month on tumblr, and-- get this -- his eyes have fucking moved to face the viewer instead of facing away.

i'm not sure what caused that to happen but it looks poorly edited and it's really fucking wigging me out because i have no idea if it's a redraw of last year's pride month thing or something, y'know? i don't remember drawing it but i definitely remember the eyes being in a different position.

so that's fun. i'm about to lose the rest of my sanity over this honestly.

...okay that’s super creepy in more than one way.

yeah it fuckin is. i have no idea if i edited it, removed the drawing (since i use the text editor on tumblr and publish drawings in a text post, usually) and updated it with the eyes to face the viewer.

i have no memory of doing this and i don't think anyone else can access my blog(s) other than my dad and he doesn't use tumblr.

Dang, that's creepy

I need rest. >->; I have so much work to get done tomorrow...*long and tired sigh* =.=

Goddam allergies are screwing with me Dx

Ahhh, waking up to have some breakfast and a nice hot cup of tea on a cool morning!~

B-b-but it's the British way! Americans drink coffee! XD

Me...a non-functioning adult, seeing all these people who have actually achieved things consider themselves to be non-functioning adults. But I've literally achieved nothing, so it makes me feel even worse in a way.

DID YOU MAKE THE TEA IN A KETTLE?!!?

It's not the British way to make it in the microwave!

Good thing: I might be promoted to lead of my department soon at work.
Bad thing: It's a full time position and I like sleeping.

neutral muttering.

went to see my YTer brother today. got vaguely annoyed at one of either his or his gf's comments on my father's nose, then was told to stop crying when i got emotional bc the prospect of losing my father is not something i will ever be able to bear.

hey, mum, you want an emotionally stunted kid, or do you want an overemotional one, you useless excuse for a parent?!

Ooo! Congrats on the promotion :)

But I do feel you on that sleep part. :(

Your bother is a YouTuber?

I'm very sorry to hear about your father. :(

I feel you Francisco. My team lead and manager constantly stay late at work, and like, I wouldn't be cool with that
